Chapter 189: Night Talk

Perrin had no choice but to retreat.

Her hair was half-dry, and Hui Zhi reached for it and pushed open the window.

The dripping rain fell from the eaves on the pedestal outside the window, the night was very quiet, and at a glance, I saw Pei Gu, who was dressed in black, standing by the window.

The eyes are extremely bright.

"Why are you here?" muttered Hui Zhi, "How long have you waited?"

How long did Hui Zhi stay in Jiamu Hall, and how long did Pei Gu stand in the root of the wall outside the east room of Yuhua Pavilion. Pei Gu smiled silently and asked, "Is it okay?"

Hui Zhi nodded, "Mother heard the news of her brother and had a seizure in advance, but fortunately, she gave birth to her younger brother safely..."

On her birthday in June and a half, she is now over thirteen years old, and although Jiangnan's case does not know when it will be concluded, I am afraid it will not be more than half a year... Once the dust settles in Jiangnan, she is about to get married, and at such an age, she has an extra brother, she thinks it is funny, and she smiles on her lips.

Pei Gu looked at her and suddenly laughed softly, and couldn't help but lose his mind for a while.

"You don't know... He gave birth to such a small lump, obviously when his mother was still pregnant with him, his belly was so big. As he spoke, even Pei Gu chuckled lightly this time, and Hui Zhi looked up at him, her hair didn't know if it was wet from the rain, or if it was stained with the dew of the night, and the thin wisps were blowing on her face. The night was dark, the weather was overcast after rain, and the candlelight in the house shone brightly, but a handsome face could be seen without reservation.

Pei Gu saw that she was looking at herself seriously, and her face was not obvious, but her heartbeat suddenly accelerated, so she had to cough lightly, clear her throat and say to Hui Zhi: "I came here for your brother's business......

Hui Zhi's eyebrows jumped, her expression became solemn, and her tone was a little anxious, "My brother, how can King Xiao... But it's arranged?"

Pei Gu nodded. The tone was steady, and her eyes were steady, and Hui Zhi felt that her nervous heartbeat was speeding up when she listened, and she slowly stabilized.

"After King Xiao stayed in Jiangnan, he didn't investigate the case with your brother and Xiao Zheng, but traveled everywhere. Find something fun to eat. Later, King Xiao ran to the Maritime Yamen, saying that he would follow the merchant ships out to sea to take a look, but how could the Maritime Yamen dare to let King Xiao follow the merchant ships? Moreover, the routes traveled by the merchant ships were very far away, and they could not come back in the last few months. What's more, the merchant ships were dangerous, and the maritime yamen repeatedly said no, so King Xiao lost his child's temper and had to go to the sea to find a group of Japanese people, saying, "I heard that the Japanese people have a different way of making fish."

The maritime yamen couldn't cry or laugh, so they wanted to arrange a cook who knew how to cook to serve King Xiao, but King Xiao didn't allow him to live or die, so he had to find it himself, and said, 'This is the original taste', and the maritime yamen couldn't. I had to arrange for fishing boats and guards to escort him with him, and when your brother and Xiao Zheng got the news, King Xiao seemed to be ready to go, and the two couldn't persuade them, so they had to let the sailor send some more people, and they got on the boat with King Xiao. ”

Hui Zhi listened carefully, and asked lightly: "King Xiao is making a show for the maritime affairs?" Brother and Lord Xiao should also push the boat along the water, after getting on the boat, where did the boat go, and what did they find. I'm afraid no one knows. ”

Pei Gu looked at her serious thinking and thought to himself that it was really a good thing to have a smart and clear daughter-in-law. It's a big thing, and she doesn't panic. Just think quietly, and you will be able to figure out the key to the matter in a moment.

"How much do you know about the Jiangnan Water Master?" Pei Gu asked softly, but the tenderness and affection inexplicably mixed in his words made Hui Zhi's heart tremble.

"I only know the ones you sued me... I don't know much about it. Hui Zhi shook her head, "Involve King Xiao to go in." No matter how much the Jiangnan officialdom obstructs it, the emperor will be furious and will be thoroughly investigated. ”

Pei Gu nodded, "Not bad." The news was delivered after the early dynasty, and the emperor was furious and named a thorough investigation of the Jiangnan Maritime Yamen. ”

"Maritime?, can you name the water master?" said Hui Zhi frowned.

"It is impossible not to check the people who have sailors on the ship, but the ship is the ship of the maritime yamen, and it is true that the sailors are on the waterway to exterminate the Japanese invaders, and the sailors are involved, and it is a matter of time. "It's a matter of importance, and Pei Gu doesn't mention it much.

"I pricked my finger yesterday. Hui Zhi suddenly raised her eyes and looked at Pei Gu Dao, "Senior Sister Jiang sent it out, but I always feel uneasy in my heart, can you send someone to protect her?"

Pei Gu knew what she meant.

The fingertip blood enters the clear water, which can detoxify all kinds of poisons. said: "I sent someone to follow her early in the morning, and sure enough, someone followed her, but her kung fu was not learned in vain, so she could naturally shake off her tail." But while reaching out and grabbing her hand hidden in the straight sleeve in the palm of her hand, she examined it carefully, "Does it hurt?"

His fingers were a little cold, he should have been standing for a long time in the night, but his palm was warm, he looked at her fingertips carefully, her hand was in his palm, although it was not a hot temperature, but it still made her face red.

"Just prick it, it doesn't hurt. Hui Zhi suddenly remembered what her father said, and couldn't help but withdraw her hand, not knowing how to speak, and thought for a while before saying, "You often come to look for me, and my father knows-"

The hands in his palms were withdrawn, Pei Gu's eyebrows frowned, and after hearing her words, his eyebrows frowned even more.

"But do you want to send more people to guard it?" Pei Gu chuckled, his mellow voice was even more intoxicating in the night and light, Hui Zhi didn't understand what he meant, she only nodded, and added at the end, "How careful are you... If there's nothing to do, don't risk coming back. ”

Pei Gu raised his eyebrows, and there was a bit of scorn in his eyes, "It's okay, there have been a lot of things recently, and my uncle must be waiting for my news." ”

Hui Zhi was relieved, "Then you are going to find my father... Will you sue him about the affairs of the maritime yamen?"

Unexpectedly, Pei Gu shook his head, "Your father is in an important position, the emperor trusts him very much, this matter is obviously the plan of the filial piety king, if your father knows, the emperor will not be aware of one or two - the top secret news of the filial piety king's operation, why should your father know?"

"Brother is also on the boat..."Hui Zhi muttered, and then figured out the trick, "Brother and Lord Xiao obviously followed King Xiao, but this plan can only be set up by King Xiao." ”

Pei Gu nodded, reached out and rubbed the top of her forehead, "Not bad." Originally, King Xiao followed the emperor up and down the Yangtze River, and the fight was to expose the fly camp between the Jiangnan Navy and the maritime affairs and the capital, and the plan was also set by him, your brother and Xiao Zheng were just accompanied, but if the news came out of the mouths of the two of them, the emperor would inevitably be suspicious. ”

The night was deeper, it was raining again, and with the window open, Hui Zhi could clearly feel the coolness in the wind outside the window, and took a closer look at the clothes Pei Gu was wearing, which were not too thick, and it was raining again, so she walked back to the house and poured a cup of hot tea and handed it to him, "It's not too early, in addition to these news, is there anything else important?"

Pei Gu pinched the pastel five-color porcelain teacup, smiled layer after layer, brought the teacup to his mouth, drank a big sip of hot tea, and his whole body was warm and comfortable.

"Sue you because I'm afraid you'll worry about your brother. There are things on the side..."Pei Gu smiled, his eyes flashed, and Hui Zhi asked what was the matter.

Pei Gu leaned over and smiled lowly, "Dowry, what do you like about Nuan Nuan?" (To be continued.) )
