Chapter 196: Deliverance

The night is as cool as water.

At this moment, the maid holding Hui Zhi hostage is called Dong Xue, her hands are extremely powerful, and the dagger on her fingertips is shining cold, tightly clinging to Hui Zhi's neck.

Pei Gu looked at Hui Zhi with deep eyes.

Smoke and rain blue plain ground caftan, the neckline and sleeves are finely embroidered with water red embroidery thread hibiscus pattern, the stamen is outlined with silver thread, goose yellow fine pleated skirt, finger-wide pleats are permed into dead pleats, the lines and pleats of the skirt are neat, a long gown skirt outlined by her like a water hibiscus, the moonlight into Yihuai, the torch shadow under the corridor is sufficient, she is in the light or dark between the jade pavilion, it looks very elegant.

Look at it like this, and wear clothes during the day.

Pei Gu's eyes became even more obscure, looking at her standing there quietly, being held against the dagger by the woman behind her, her face was calm, her expression was indifferent, and she couldn't help but feel a pain in her heart.

Pei Gu... You are really useless, just said that with him for a day, you will protect her and prevent her from being in danger.

Hui Zhi looked at her fixedly, and under the overlapping light and darkness, she opened her mouth to the void, and gently spit out a silent word: "Poison." ”

Pei Gu lowered his eyes imperceptibly, glanced at her with a deep look, and slowly approached. The maid behind Hui Zhi looked nervous, and the dagger in her hand came closer and closer. Hui Zhi could almost feel the special coolness of the metal on her neck that belonged to the dagger blade.

Pei Gu's voice was cold: "In my eyes, you are already a dead person." ”

His words were said to the maid, Hui Zhi obviously felt that the body of the person behind her stiffened, and her wrist shook, but for a moment of stunned time, the short battle was connected, the golden blade sounded, Hui Zhi's eyes were flowered, her eyes blinked, and when she opened her eyes again, Pei Gu had already reached out and held her wrist. As soon as his arm was retracted, he took her in his arms and turned his back to where the maid was standing. Her forehead rested on his chest, and the cool night breeze could blow in her ears. Through the fabric of his clothes, he could clearly feel the sound of his hot heartbeat.

The man's cold voice rang in her ears, and hot breath poured into her ears: "If it's for you, even if you become cold-blooded and ruthless, you don't blink an eye when you kill." I don't have half a mind. ”

Hui Zhi closed her eyes and seemed to hear the sound of petals opening and closing in her heart.

Tsk, it's obviously such a dangerous situation, but this guy is saying a lot of good words.

The girl Huaichun - her mind moved, and then she was exhausted, and the worries and sensitivities that she had hidden in her heart were no longer known to be abandoned as the petals in her heart opened and closed.

"Why don't you use poison? I'm not afraid—"

"Although you are not afraid... But what did they rob you for?" Pei Gu's face turned cold, "What you are aiming for is that you are not afraid of poison, if you use poison in their territory." What will I do in the future if I rescue you safely?"

Hui Zhi sighed lowly, "Why am I always so unlucky..."

Pei Gu smiled, holding her with one hand, his shoulder blocking her vision, holding a long sword in one hand, and his voice was as low as water: "I thought you would be safe at home... Now it seems that it is better to marry you back earlier, and I can rest assured by guarding and protecting me. ”

This guy is really ...... Hui Zhi bit her lip.

In public, she had no choice but to press her head closer to his chest—her face was already hot enough to make soup. Good thing it's at night...

But the faint scent of grass and trees on his body, in this courtyard where the smell of blood gradually rose, made her feel very ironed.

"That maid - don't kill her. The temperature on her face faded, and Hui Zhi remembered such a stubble. "The commander behind the scenes didn't know who it was, so he took her away and investigated. ”

Pei Gu stopped waving the sword in his hand, and when he looked down, he saw a small face as soft as a peach blossom in three springs, his eyes were as bright as a lake, and his long eyelashes flashed one after another. My heart inexplicably softened by three points.

"This house is the property of the old Jane Pavilion. Pei Gu said slowly, the yard had already been cleaned up by the people he brought. Lu Zhan stepped forward and tied up the two maids in the previous room, stuffed strips of cloth in his mouth, and let them be dragged to the carriage outside the door.

“…… Sure enough, it was Jane's family. Hui Zhi's voice was weak.

Pei Gu looked at her obscure expression, and opened his mouth to persuade, but he didn't know what to say. "Who do you think is behind it?"

Hui Zhi pursed her lips, "Except for the one in the East Palace, who else can instruct the Jian family and the Xiao family?" After speaking, her brows furrowed, "I remember... When I was accompanying Mrs. Xiao Er in the yard, there was a servant... In the courtyard of the second uncle, the appearance is no different from the previous red medicine, if there is no beginning and end between them, I don't believe it. ”

Pei Gu was silent, "You don't have to worry about this matter, I'll send you back." After speaking, he took a deep breath, "I have already discussed countermeasures with your father. ”

Hui Zhi raised her head and stared at him quietly, her eyes were full of doubts, her father had always been interested in Senior Brother Pei's... The prospective son-in-law has no good face, how can the two of them sit down quietly and discuss countermeasures when she and her brother are "missing"?

"Don't think about it. Pei Gu's voice suddenly softened, and his eyes became soft, as if he had hooked people into a warm hot spring soup. He stretched out his hand and put the cloak on his body and put it on her, "It's cold at night, let's go back first, it's not appropriate to stay here for a long time." ”

After speaking, with a wave of his palm, the wolf bèi in the courtyard was left in place by them, and pressed two maids to get on the carriage behind, Pei Gu accompanied Hui Zhi to a carriage covered with a green cloth tent in front, the carriage did not have any family emblem and mansion table, and the appearance was ordinary, and it blatantly drove out of the narrow alley in Beicheng.

The car was shaky, except for Hui Zhi is Pei Gu, the car was lit with a dead wind lamp, in the dim light, Pei Gu first poured a lamp of warm water and handed it to Hui Zhi, and then took out a small box from his side, in the boxy small box, there were four or five small snacks tightly, "Eat some snacks and pad it, and let people make some supper when you go back." Looking at Hui Zhi's somewhat pointed chin, Pei Gu felt distressed at the corners of his eyes.

Hui Zhi obediently took it, thanked her, and stuffed a piece of soft and sweet mung bean cake into her mouth. It melts in the mouth, sweet but not greasy, and has a faint mung bean taste, which she likes very much.

"It tasted good. After eating the other, the corners of Hui Zhi's mouth curved to Pei Gu and said, "Teacher... Have you had dinner?"

She disappeared after noon, and they came looking for her in the evening, and according to his nature, he probably did not have time to eat.

Pei Gu raised his eyebrows and smiled lightly: "Worried about me?"

Hui Zhi's heart was like being scratched by a cat, tickling and scalding, "You are so inserious... I'll ignore you. ”

Low laughter, "When you get married, why don't you ignore me." ”

"Ahem......" Hui Zhi's throat tightened and coughed, Pei Gu poured water with a nervous face and handed it to her, but Hui Zhi gently pushed it away, "You are serious, I won't choke on a word." (To be continued.) )
