When he returned to the house, Xie Feishen's appearance was not good, at least he was brought back to the capital at the request of the Xue family.

Suddenly, as soon as his tightly closed eyebrows and eyes opened, Xie Feishen asked in a cold voice, "Is there anything else about the county lord?" ”

Of course, I came here because I thought you were bad!

In the face of his alienation, Liang Pingshu shook his head very calmly: "No, Gongzi Xie has a good rest." ”

Not long after leaving the guest house, someone came to report that the imperial doctor in the palace had come to see Xie Feishen and asked the county lord to lead the way.

Sure enough, Wen Qingzhu was not really worried, and Liang Pingshu took the imperial doctor back to the guest house.

Pushing the door in, just about to speak, the quilt on the bed was lifted, and there were still blood stains on it, but the person was nowhere to be seen.

Liang Pingshu's expression changed sharply, and he hurriedly ordered: "Someone!" Go and tell the princess immediately, Gongzi Xie is missing! ”

The bright moon hung high, the dead grass was everywhere, and only a few farmhouses were still lit up at the foot of Lingyun Mountain.

The figures of two people walked quietly on the path, looming under the mottled shadows of the trees.

He couldn't stop checking the people in front and back, and asked the people around him in a low voice: "Princess, is it too dangerous for only us to come?" ”

"It's not dangerous, Jiang Yuancheng is already at the end of the crossbow, unless he encounters ......"

Before he finished speaking, a voice came from behind and wanted Wen Qingzhu: "Unless someone can help him hide from the world." ”

Stopped, Wen Qingzhu looked back, it was Pei Yi, he was carrying a medicine box in his hand, and walked over step by step.

"This is what the princess wants." Pei Yi handed her the medicine box in his hand, and Green Tao hurriedly took it.

Wen Qingzhu's expression was calm, but the words he said were very guarded: "You actually know that I am here." ”

This is still a coincidence, Pei Yi felt a little helpless, but he knew that Wen Qingzhu would not believe it, so he only said: "In short, the things I promised the princess have been done, and the things that the princess promised me should also be prepared." ”

"You're threatening me?" Wen Qingzhu felt that he was a little anxious.

After thinking for a moment, he suddenly understood in his heart, and asked with a smile: "White Wolf Mountain was blown up by you with your own hands." ”

Pei Yi was a little thinly dressed, and when the cold wind blew at night, he had goosebumps all over his body.

He looked up at the nearest farmhouse in front of him and said, "Let's find a place to sit and have a good talk." ”

After a little deliberation, Wen Qingzhu nodded in response.

When he came to the courtyard of the farmhouse, Pei Yi reached out and knocked on the door and knocked twice.

Through the fence, you can see the lights flickering in the wooden windows.

The surroundings were quiet for a moment, Wen Qingzhu stared intently at the few rays of light, but he didn't come to open the door, and no one answered.

"Something." Pei Yi stretched out his hand to stop in front of Wen Qingzhu, and pushed hard, but the courtyard door didn't move at all.

He looked sideways, met Wen Qingzhu's gaze and asked, "What are you doing here?" ”

Wen Qingzhu didn't reply, took out a golden needle, and gently picked it in the crack of the door.

There was a few clangs, and something fell in the doorway.

"It really is." Wen Qingzhu gently pushed, and the courtyard door opened.

In the bleak moonlight, a few three-fingered thick wooden strips lay on the ground in a mess.

I walked in a few steps and I was at the entrance of the house.

Another pick, another bang, and the door was opened.

A beam of light leaked from the half-open doorway, reflecting a bright red puddle of blood on the ground.

Wen Qingzhu sighed, pushed open the door and walked into the house.

When I looked up, I saw a young couple tied up with flowers, their mouths and ears gagged, their necks almost cut off, and blood pouring out.

"Jiang Yuancheng was here just now." After Wen Qingzhu finished speaking, he walked to the table with the kerosene lamp.

There was a cloud of ash on the face, and it looked like something had been burned.

Wen Qingzhu stretched out his fingertips and twisted a handful, feeling the touch from his fingertips, this texture is-

"Ji family paper." Pei Yi stood behind her and said the answer for her.

Turning his head to look at Wen Qingzhu's side face, he didn't understand: "How could Jiang Yuancheng have something to do with the Ji family?" ”

Wen Qingzhu was very tired, and his heart was a little messy, so he sat down.

She looked at the dead couple in front of her and said, "I don't know either, but unfortunately you said that someone really wants to help Jiang Yuancheng hide from the world." ”

"Ji family?" Pei Yi knows very well what Jiang Yuancheng is relying on now, but it shouldn't have anything to do with the Ji family.

He raised his eyes and suddenly found that Wen Qingzhu was deep in thought.

This shows that Wen Qingzhu does not doubt the Ji family, but she is thinking about why the Ji family would help Jiang Yuancheng.

Pei Yi asked in shock: "The Ji family is also related to that person?" ”

"Yes, of course, there is a reason why the Ji family has been able to stand for so many years, they are just ordinary families, but they have extraordinary knowledge."

Wen Qingzhu laughed: "Don't you regret that you didn't listen to your grandfather?" ”

Restrained his expression, Pei Yi also sat down, not annoyed: "It's my decision to miss this kind of thing, there's no need to regret it, just do what is in front of you." ”

is worthy of the Pei family, and it is really arrogant.

Following his gaze, Wen Qingzhu felt a trace of remorse: "It seems that I still underestimated him, and I couldn't help but dare to come to the capital, and I also got the help of the Ji family." ”

Pei Yi was about to speak, when he suddenly drew his sword and slashed, and the wooden board of the window was split in half and fell to the ground.

Outside the window stood a gloomy man, staring at him intently.

Seeing that it was an acquaintance, Pei Yi hurriedly put away the sword in his hand and explained: "It turned out to be Gongzi Xie, misunderstanding and misunderstanding." Then he invited him, "Why don't you come in and sit down?" ”

Xie Feishen didn't say a word, he didn't want to come in, and he didn't mean to leave.

Wen Qingzhu, who was sitting, finally stood up, and she instructed Lu Tao: "Go and report to the official." ”

Early the next morning, in the Ji family's guest house. 2020

Pei Yi repeatedly looked at Wen Qingzhu opposite, she drank tea, borrowed books, and admired famous paintings, as if she was not here to ask about the teacher.

Originally, he shouldn't have opened this mouth, but Pei Yi looked around the Ji family, and he was really curious: "What is the relationship between this Ji family and that one?" Could it be that they also know about the emperor's affairs? ”

"Hmm." Wen Qingzhu put down the teacup and picked up the book brought by the maid again.

These words made Pei Yi really surprised: "What kind of existence is the Ji family?" ”

There was a heritage close at hand, and he didn't even know it.

"Our Ji family is just an ordinary existence." An old voice came from the door.

Seeing this, Wen Qingzhu hurriedly put down the book, got up and saluted, Pei Yi was naturally not to be left behind.

The old man came into the house and sat down, didn't look at Pei Yi, and said directly to Wen Qingzhu: "Jiang Yuancheng brought the relics of that ancestor, and what he asked for was not the throne, but to save his life. ”

"And you agreed?" didn't ask if she could do it, but asked directly and didn't agree, Wen Qingzhu knew that the Ji family had books, and some things might be clearer than her.

The old man twisted his beard: "Whether our Ji family agrees or not, there is no threat to the princess or the emperor, just to fulfill one of the ancestors' wishes." ”

Wen Qingzhu's fingertips tapped lightly on the armrest, as if thinking about the truth of these words.

After a while, she laughed: "Since the Ji family said so, then I will believe you." ”

The old man's brows moved, and he could see her thoughts at a glance: "The princess doesn't need our Ji family. ”

If you don't need it, you can borrow it first, Wen Qingzhu was naturally unceremoniously: "I'm also the teacher's apprentice, and now I have difficulties, and I need your help." ”

As rumored, it's a character who doesn't suffer.

Turning his head to the young man beside him, the old man asked him: "From today on, you follow the princess and come back when Jiang Yuancheng is dead." ”

"Yes." The young man looked directly at Wen Qingzhu, not afraid of people at all.

Wen Qingzhu thanked him, didn't say a word, and left with the young man.

Pei Yi behind him seemed to get up and say goodbye sultryly, but he didn't get a response from the old man.

The streets were bustling with traffic, and there were noticeably more people and vehicles.

Lifting the curtain and looking outside, Wen Qingzhu was slightly displeased when he saw that Pei Yi was still riding a horse and following behind.

"Why did Pei Yi follow the princess?" Green Tao had been by Wen Qingzhu's side for the longest time, and of course she understood what Wen Qingzhu's expression meant at this time.

It was precisely because she knew that she was curious: "If the princess doesn't want him to follow, wouldn't it be good to just give him a direct order?" ”

Wen Qingzhu shook his head: "It's not that simple, Pei Yi is a ......"

Halfway through, she didn't say any more.

Seeing that he was about to arrive at the palace, Pei Yi didn't want to be proud of the emperor at this time, and finally took the initiative to retreat: "Princess, I want to go back to Pei's house to do something, and I hope that Princess Haihan." ”

"Got it, go ahead." Wen Qingzhu didn't care, but a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

If Pei Yi met Pei Yu, it would really be a big scene.

Entered the palace and went directly to the eldest prince's side.

After the test, it shows that the child is fine.

Fu Jue finally felt relieved, turned his head and went into the house to take care of the child, and Wei Qinglin was in the middle hall.

"You went to find Jiang Yuan last night?"

"Hmm." Wen Qingzhu was still thinking about the Ji family's help to Jiang Yuancheng, and he was a little absent-minded.

"Sister Qingzhu!" Wei Qinglin stretched out his hand and shook it in front of her eyes.

Wen Qingzhu came back to his senses and asked strangely, "I'm listening to you." ”

I was listening, but I didn't pay attention to listening, Wei Qinglin asked the personal palace maid to go down, and turned her head to look at her seriously: "Sister Qingzhu, you can't go out alone, it's still the middle of the night, you don't know the emperor's side, and the version also sent someone to look for you, but it hasn't been found yet." ”

"Don't worry, I know in my heart that nothing will happen." Wen Qingzhu waved his hand and continued to think about the words of the old man of the Ji family.

Is it just to save my life?

Wei Qinglin saw her like this, and asked a few more questions, but Wen Qingzhu answered simply and clearly, which made Wei Qinglin have nowhere to go.

In the end, he couldn't help but say: "What if Jiang Yuancheng really appears in front of you?" ”

Hearing this, Wen Qingzhu looked over with a smile: "If he really appears, he will naturally be killed." ”

A smiling face, a gentle voice, and the words that come out are solemn.

Since one thing in his heart was solved, Wen Qingzhu stood up.

She looked towards the eldest prince and said to Wei Qinglin: "Take good care of the eldest prince, the Jiang family will never have the emperor in the future, take good care of him." ”

Getting up and leaving Qingning Palace, Wen Qingzhu didn't take a few steps before he met Pei Yu.

He stood on the side of the palace gate, as if he was waiting for her.

"Why is Pei Xiangye here?" Wen Qingzhu asked knowingly.

That's right, at Su Huo's suggestion, Pei Yuguan was reinstated, and no one objected or agreed, and things came to this point so weirdly.

Pei Yu saluted respectfully, then looked up at her and said, "Princess, Pei Yi is back." ”

Wen Qingzhu smiled: "I know, he came to me this time." ”

"Then the old minister will be relieved." Pei Yu knew a lot, but he was very knowledgeable and didn't ask much.

Looking at his back farther and farther away, Lu Tao said with emotion: "It seems that Pei Xiangye finally knows that there are some things that cannot be done." ”

"You're wrong." Wen Qingzhu turned his head and walked in the direction of the Xuanzheng Hall and explained, "It's not that he doesn't do it, but he is waiting for an opportunity to do it." ”

Green Tao thoughtful, waiting for an opportunity?

The people of the Pei family will never give up, they will only wait for the opportunity.

Just like Pei Yu, who was seized of power, seemed to be looking for Fu Xuan to fall into the ground, but in fact he was just trying to join forces with Fu Xuan and try to return to the court.

The young man of the Ji family is very smart, very polite, and even more like a Zhilan jade tree.
