Sheng Yue Who Works Hard

News from Kasyapa City came one after another, because Sheng Yue was constantly sending corpses there.

This is in line with Gu Ling and Su Liang's understanding of Sheng Yue: he is a rational egoist. He decided to do things according to Gu Ling's wishes, because under the current situation, it was beneficial to his own safety and future. Once the matter was done, he had to let Su Liang and Gu Ling know, leaving nothing to be questioned. place.

Receiving the same news from Kasyapa City this day, Su Liang chuckled, "I suspect that Sheng Yue may have kept an account book, in which he wrote who was killed on a certain day in a certain month, how many women and children were settled, and how many women and children were settled. How much money was paid and whether he was injured will be shown to us when the time comes.”

Gu Ling nodded and expressed the same sentiment, "There is nothing wrong with that." There is nothing wrong with being self-interested. The important thing is not to "harm others."

Two days after Feng Ming returned home, he was invited to visit Peng Mansion. He also wanted to see the children he knew on the island.

Feng Ming asked Zhu Zan to accompany him, but Zhu Zan refused, "No reward for no merit, you are invited, so just go. Master said, we are not slaves, we can make friends, whenever we want It’s okay to leave. I plan to consider whether to leave after I get married, so don’t think about it too much.”

Feng Ming shook his head and smiled, "I didn't think much about it, I just haven't experienced anything like this."

"You are so smart, what are you afraid of? Go quickly." Zhu Zan patted Feng Ming on the shoulder.

In the end, Feng Ming didn't go alone, because when he was about to leave, he happened to see Zheng'er and Ji Xiaoshu coming out to play after finishing their homework.

Zheng'er and Ji Xiaoshu were already very familiar with the Peng family. After saying hello to Su Liang, they went out with Feng Ming.

"Uncle Feng, what kind of girl do you like?" Ji Xiaoshu asked Feng Ming with a smile while riding on his pony.

Feng Ming coughed lightly, "Why do you ask Xiaoshu this? I haven't thought about it yet."

"You can think about it now." Ji Xiaoshu said, "Elder brother and I are relatively familiar with the capital and can help you find someone."

Feng Ming couldn't help but laugh. He thought this was weird and cute. Two little guys actually wanted to help him find a girl?

"We are serious. What do you think, senior brother?" Ji Xiaoshu asked Zheng'er.

Zheng'er nodded, "If there is a suitable person who needs matchmaking, we can indeed help."

truth. They were not children from ordinary families, but now everyone knows that they are the apprentices of Gu Ling and Su Liang, and they are kept by their side. The two of them are quite popular in the capital, and even Emperor Duanmu Chen dotes on them. Therefore, Zheng'er and Ji Xiaoshu's social circle is actually wider than that of Gu Ling and Su Liang. Because Gu Ling and Su Liang don't like to socialize.

Feng Ming smiled, "That's it. Thank you in advance. I will consider this matter carefully."

While talking, he arrived at the gate of Peng Mansion and was quickly welcomed in.

Ashin and Ale, who were sitting obediently in the front hall, rushed out immediately when they saw Zheng'er and Ji Xiaoshu coming.

Peng Wei walked out cheerfully, and after greeting Zheng'er and Ji Xiaoshu, he looked at Feng Ming and nodded secretly. Because Su Liang had previously praised Feng Ming for being brave, resourceful, smart, and very prudent in doing things, and Peng Wu had mentioned that Feng Ming had helped their mother and son before, so Peng Wei insisted on meeting Feng Ming and thanking him. .

"General Peng." Feng Ming held his hand.

Peng Wei waved his hand, "I am no longer a general. Master Feng, please come quickly."

"Mr. Peng, you don't have to be polite, just call me by my name." Feng Ming looked neither humble nor arrogant. He followed Peng Wei into the door and saw Peng Wu. She was a completely different person than she was on Starfall Island.

In Feng Ming's impression, Peng Wu always had a thin face and a lonely expression, with a touch of melancholy between his eyebrows, but he never lost the perseverance in his bones. Because compared to other women who were kidnapped back on Xingluo Island, Peng Wu is really much stronger. There are many girls who have long since lost their beauty and cannot leave Xingluo Island alive.

But when they met again, Peng Wu was dressed plainly and elegantly, his face was rosy and shiny, his eyebrows were stretched, he was full of heroic spirit, with a smile on his lips, he called out calmly and generously, "Young Master Feng."

"Just call me by my name." Feng Ming smiled and nodded, thinking in his mind that she was indeed a lady from a general family. This is her original demeanor. Before, she was tortured and oppressed by the people on Xingluo Island, and at the same time she was doing it for her children. After working hard, the pain is finally over.

After sitting down, Feng Ming looked outside the door and saw that the children had run away.

"Don't worry about them. Zheng'er and Xiaoshu come here often and must be playing in the garden." Peng Wu said.

After entertaining Feng Ming for a cup of tea, Peng Wei asked him if he still had any family members alive.

"There should be a few distant relatives." Feng Ming said, "I just heard my parents mention it when I was young, but I haven't seen them. After my parents passed away, I lost contact." He survived by relying on his own ability, learned martial arts from his master, and grew up As an adult, if he hadn't been targeted by an elder on Xingluo Island and taken back as a slave, according to his original plan, he would have joined the army. At that time, the situation in the Three Kingdoms was tense. Given his young age, strong martial arts skills, and considerable resourcefulness, he would definitely be able to accomplish something. And if that were the case, his life would be completely different now.

After listening to Feng Ming's few words about his experience, Peng Wei couldn't help but sigh, "You are a talent, but it's a pity that fate has a way with you."

Feng Ming smiled, "It's good now. It's my luck to be able to serve my master."

"It's your brain." Peng Wei said with a smile.

Peng Fan was about to invite Feng Ming to sit with him when his servants reported that his wife was not feeling well, so he hurried over.

Peng Wei was also a little worried and said he would go over and ask about the situation to see if he needed to ask an imperial doctor or if he could ask Su Liang to come and let Peng Wu entertain Feng Ming.

Seeing that Peng Wu was a little uneasy, Feng Ming took the initiative and said, "If you are busy, just arrange for someone to take me to the garden to find the children."

Peng Wu shook his head and sighed slightly, "It's okay. My brother has passed away, and my mother must be here too. I don't know medical skills, so I can't help." Then he changed the subject, "I heard that you escorted Uncle Liu and Auntie home. Are they all okay?"

Feng Ming nodded and detailed his experience of sending the cook and the mute slave home and helping them find their son.

After hearing this, Peng Wu inevitably felt a little bit the same. Although the situation is not exactly the same, the separation of flesh and blood is similar. Her parents and relatives also suffered a lot in those years.

"No matter what, I still want to thank you, not just because you followed the prince to save us this time." Peng Wu looked at Feng Ming with a serious and solemn expression, "Before that, I think you were one of the very few men on the island. of good people.”

Feng Ming sighed softly, "The past is in the past. I believe that Miss Peng will get better and better in the future. The children will also grow up healthy and happy. In this way, all the things I have done will be worth it."

"I will live a good life." Peng Wu nodded, "I hope you will too."

The two of them looked at each other and smiled, got up, left the front hall, and went to the garden.

On the way, he met Peng Wei and saw that he was cheerful. Peng Wu knew that Peng Fan's wife should be fine.

"It's a false alarm. But I still have to ask Lao Gao to come over and take a pulse." Peng Wei said, "Wu'er, please treat Xiao Feng well and let him stay for dinner. Xiao Feng, don't be cautious, you are not an outsider."

Feng Ming said quickly, "Okay."

After watching Peng Wei leave, the two of them arrived at the garden and saw four children standing in a row, all with the same face...

Peng Wu was stunned. Of course she could tell her two sons apart normally, but now she was a little confused, and it was obvious that Zheng'er and Ji Xiaoshu had also disguised themselves as Ashin and Ale. Of course the clothes are different, but maybe they changed them specially?

The four children were preparing to go find Peng Wu and Feng Ming. When they saw them coming, they did not speak for fear of revealing their secrets. One of them wrote on the ground with his foot, "Guess who we are?"

Feng Ming pointed at the child who came out to write, and said with a smile, "I guess you are Xiaoshu. This must be your idea."

The child shook his head silently and wrote another line with his foot, "Xiaoshu knows you will think so. I am not him."

Feng Ming looked at Peng Wu. She knew that the slight difference in the original appearance of the two sons must have been modified by Zheng'er and Ji Xiaoshu. However, as a mother, she was confident that she could recognize her two children, "I am responsible for Identify A Xin and A Le, and when the time comes, Feng Ming, you can tell which one is Zheng'er and which one is Xiao Shu."

Feng Ming said it was reasonable, and the two had a clear division of labor. Soon, Peng Wu began to observe the four children carefully, and soon pulled A Le out because he had a subconscious little move that he didn't even know about.

Then there was Ashin, who was also successfully found by Peng Wu. One of them was wearing Zheng'er's clothes, and the other was still wearing his own clothes.

Peng Wu looked at Feng Ming, "It's your turn."

The remaining Zheng'er and Ji Xiaoshu stood quietly with exactly the same expressions on their faces. They are very skilled at this.

Feng Ming looked at it for a while and chose to give up, "I really can't recognize it." In fact, he had only lived in Su Mansion for a few days. He left soon after recognizing Su Liang as his master the previous time, so he was facing Zheng'er. I don’t know Ji Xiaoshu very well.

Finally, it was Peng Wu who identified the two people based on the subtle changes in their eyes.

"Aunt Peng is so awesome!" Ji Xiaoshu gave a thumbs up, "We play this game at home, and my master often admits his mistakes!"

Peng Wu and Feng Ming took the children to eat fruit together. As they walked, Ji Xiaoshu asked, "What kind of man does Aunt Peng like?"

Peng Wu was stunned, "Why do you ask this?"

Feng Ming smiled and said nothing. As expected, Ji Xiaoshu said that he could help Peng Wu look for someone.

Peng Wu smiled and said, "Thank you, Xiaoshu, but no need. I'm very satisfied as I am now and I won't get married."

"Of course that's okay." Ji Xiaoshu said, "I'm just asking. Aunt Peng is still young, so there's nothing wrong with pursuing happiness! Look at my master and mistress, how sweet they are!"

Peng Wu nodded, "They are a couple of gods and immortals. You can't envy them."

"Everyone will find their most suitable spouse, and I will definitely have one in the future!" Ji Xiaoshu said one thing after another.

A Le admired his face again, "Brother Xiaoshu, you know a lot!"

So the topic is over.

Peng Wu thought Ji Xiaoshu was innocent and cute, but his words still made her feel a little confused. Before the accident, she was actually engaged and was still a prince. The two had met several times, but that person didn't leave a deep impression on her. Now that she thinks about it, her face is blurred and she only remembers a name. The Situ royal family had been destroyed a long time ago, and that man married another young lady not long after Peng Wu's accident, but then he left without surviving a cold storm.

Years passed by, and Peng Wu looked back now. She didn't want to look back at the seven years on Xingluo Island. To her, except for her children, everything else was like a blank. If she had no children, Peng Wu would very much wish to turn back time and give her a smooth life, but now, this assumption is no longer valid.

Peng Wei invited Dr. Gao back. They often interacted with each other and were already familiar with each other.

Dr. Gao checked Mrs. Peng's pulse and said nothing was wrong, so that they could rest assured.

After lunch, Dr. Gao invited the children to his house to see the koi, which Gao Jiabao had asked someone to find from other places.

Feng Ming and Peng Wu took the five children to Gao's house. Xiaoyue was previously taken care of by Mrs. Peng, so Peng Wu could entertain the guests.

When they left Gao's house, the sun was about to set.

Feng Ming first sent Peng Wu and his mother to the gate of Peng's house, watched them go in, and then took Zheng'er and Ji Xiaoshu home.

As soon as they arrived at the door, they heard the sound of horse hooves coming from another direction.

"It must be another message from the south." Zheng'er said. Recently, there are soldiers coming to report the news almost every day.

But this time is really different. When the people got close, they got off the horse. There was a sack on the horse's back. Judging from the shape, it seemed that there was a person in it.

It was indeed a soldier from Jiaye City. He had seen Feng Ming following Qiu Jing before, so he explained the situation to him, "The others are all corpses, only this one is alive, unconscious, his hands and feet are tied and thrown at the back door of Lin's house, and there is a piece of paper on his body, which is written in blood, asking him to be tied up and sent to the capital to be handed over to the prince and princess."

Feng Ming's expression was slightly condensed, and he had a guess in his mind. He asked Zheng'er and Ji Xiaoshu to take the soldier who reported the news to see Su Liang and Gu Ling first, and he arranged the horses and the sacks on the horses' backs.

Ji Xiaoshu wanted to take a look first, but was stopped by Feng Ming, and did not insist.

Feng Ming led all the horses in, closed the door, unloaded the sack, opened the tightly tied sack, and saw a face that was not unfamiliar. He knew that this was the biological father of Axin and Ale.

Feng Ming dragged the sack and went straight to the dungeon and threw the man in.

On the other side, Su Liang was a little surprised to learn that a living person was sent this time when he saw the soldier who reported the news. Then he also thought about who Sheng Yue would keep alive.

Sheng Yue was obviously the kind of person who would either not do it or try his best to do it perfectly. Since he wanted to show his sincerity, he killed those who should be killed and those who should not be killed. He also kept the one who could be killed by others later.

Sheng Yue knew Peng Wu's life experience long ago. She can be said to be the only woman who was abducted back from Xingluo Island who could be considered to be related to Su Liang. Because Su Liang has a good relationship with the Peng family.

Therefore, when Sheng Yue killed the Zhong family, he kept the man who tortured Peng Wu for several years and sent him as a gift.

This is certainly a good "gift". If Su Liang and Gu Ling were to eliminate the remnants, they would also keep this person and hand him over to the Peng family for disposal.

As soon as Feng Ming entered Yuanming Pavilion, he heard Su Liang ask, "Is it the surname Zhong?"

Feng Ming nodded, "That's the man."

"Then you have to go again and tell Grandpa Peng to see how he plans to deal with it." Su Liang said.

Feng Ming rode out of the house and went to Peng's house again.

Not long after, Peng Fan came back with two guards and Feng Ming, and took the man in the dungeon of Su's house away.

As for how the Peng family finally dealt with the man, Su Liang and Gu Ling did not ask again.

…

Jiaye City, late at night.

Recently, corpses have appeared one after another at the back door of Lin's house. The young general in charge here probably knows what's going on, and he didn't arrange anyone to guard it. He just sent people to Beijing to report when there were new corpses, and sent them directly to Beijing if there were any alive.

A black shadow entered the alley with a sack on his back.

Walking to the back door of Lin's house, he threw the sack on the ground, dragged out the corpse inside, put it in the old position, and sat on the threshold.

The moon passed through the dark clouds. Sheng Yue looked up, then took out a booklet and a charcoal pencil, opened a new page, wrote a few lines in the moonlight, and put the things back into his arms.

"There are only two left." Sheng Yue muttered to himself inaudibly, "Why do I have to live like this... like a psychopath who fights violence and protects the good, I used to hate this kind of people the most."

After a while, Sheng Yue got up, patted the dirt on his body, and returned along the original route, "There are only two left, kill them quickly and go to the capital. If the magic weapon can't even control Su Liang, let's see what Gu will do."
