Chapter 51: The Prince of Pei Guo
After a few people retreated in shock, they could still vaguely hear the sound of swords and swords over there, and the majesty of the flames made people dare not linger at all, until they retreated to the shore and a few girls who were pampered in the boudoir, which was like waking up from a dream.
Pei Yuniang looked at the center of the East Lake in disbelief, and the raging fire was refracted in her eyes, intensifying.
"This ......"
Liao's family can be said to be quite famous in the Great Zhou Kingdom, even the nobles in the palace will not treat her well, but what is this scene in front of you?
- Assassination?
The young man, as if worried that she would be frightened by the scene in front of her, walked beside her and patted her on the back: "It's okay, don't be afraid. β
"Big brother."
Pei Yuniang tugged at the sleeve of Pei Guogong's son, as if seeking the warmest care, and Pei Shizi sighed. After all, she is a girl who is pampered in a deep boudoir and does not know the world, and even if she has great ambitions in her heart, she is afraid at this time.
However, there is one person who seems to be an exception.
Although he has just entered the officialdom, he has also developed a pair of sharp eyes after living in the capital for so many years, and at the beginning, this girl did not show any panic, and even calmly commanded the retreat of the shipwrights who had already been out of proportion.
This kind of concentration is not something that everyone can have.
Of course, what surprised him the most was that she looked very young, looking twelve or thirteen years old.
"I'll send you back."
Such a thing happened in East Lake, and it was not feasible to release river lanterns, but fortunately, a few little girls were also addicted.
"Big brother, why are you here?"
Pei Yuniang heard that he was going to send herself back, so she asked in hindsight, didn't he tease his little nephew at home? How do you have time to take care of yourself?
"Do you think your mother will rest assured that you will come to East Lake alone?"
He glared at Pei Yuniang angrily, and then said to a few little girls: "Your family is afraid that they are also frightened at this time, I will send you back." β
"Xie Shizi."
Gu Jinshu and the others leaned over towards Pei Shizi, while at the same time, the man in the red robe and the wild wolf mask stared closely at the place where the fire was burning, and the prosperous ship gradually turned into dust and smoke.
"How's it going?"
"Twelve missed."
The man in blue beside him clasped his hand towards Ran Yichen, and his voice was a little incredulous, as if he didn't understand why Twelve missed.
"Are the people of the Great Zhou aware of it?"
Ran Yichen's deep voice was a little puzzled, their whereabouts of entering the Great Zhou this time were not leaked, why did everyone seem to know this.
If it weren't for Twelve's fierce attack, the ship might not have been destroyed.
"No, it's just ...... Only this time it seems to have been ruined by a man wearing a fox mask. β
He was originally preparing to receive Twelve not far away, but a figure appeared on the ship's board, which directly disrupted all their response plans, and Twelve should have been captured at this time.
"Fox Mask?" The folding fan in Ran Yichen's hand swayed slightly, and then sneered lightly, "No matter who it is, you must die." β
He pursed his thin lips and glanced at the man in blue lightly, his voice could not hear joy and anger: "You did a good job this time, you know how to give up, as for the twelve kings will let people rescue them, you don't have to worry." β
"Thank you for your compassion."
He is the brother of the same mother in the twelve, and this feeling is naturally unique in the twelve, but if he jumped into the encirclement of the Liao family at that time, then more people would die.
"Let's go down!"
Ran Yichen waved his hand to signal him to go down, and he continued to sit on the gazebo as if nothing had happened, and suddenly his eyes were fixed on a river lamp not far away, taking advantage of the fact that people were not paying attention to the fact that he was as light as a swallow in the middle of the water, and then picked up the river lamp with one hand and sat in the original position unconsciously.
As if it had never moved, the ghostly movement just now seemed to only appear in a dream.
He gently stroked the river lamp with the portrait of a person with a pair of slender fingers, and then saw the note stored insideβMay there be no troubles in heaven, and may you have no pain in your next life.
Looking at the square plum blossom Xiaokai, looking at the content of the note, he couldn't help but show a little mockery on his face. There are always people in this world who love to daydream so much, and the so-called afterlife is just an excuse given to them by incompetent people.
He drooped his eyes and looked at the pattern of the lantern, on which the beautiful woman must have been painted very well, but unfortunately looking at what was written, it should have been a dead man.
- It's really a shame.
Thinking of this, he threw the river lantern directly into the water, and the note was also crumpled into a ball by him, and then merged with the lake.
Pei Shizi sent several people back to the mansion one by one, and then drove to Pei Guogong's mansion with Pei Yuniang, looking at her with a worried face, he slowed down his voice: "What's wrong?" β
"It's fine."
Compared with Pei Jinniang, who has never met a few times since she was a child, the brother in front of her can be said to be one of the few people she can talk about in Pei Guogong's mansion, but there are some things she can't say, after all, she doesn't want to embarrass him.
"But the marriage with the East Palace?"
At this time, there were no outsiders in the carriage, and Pei Shizi was not riding on a horse, but stared at her seriously.
"Big brother, do you have to marry into the East Palace?"
She bit a thin lip and her voice was slightly bitter, life is like that beautiful big ship, and no one knows when the accident will happen.
- Why can't you live for yourself?
Pei Shizi squinted his eyes and didn't say anything for a long time, and only after a long time did he take a deep breath: "Xie Shisan looked for me when he left. β
His words made Pei Yuniang's face change greatly, but Pei Shizi shook his head with a wry smile: "You should know that only the meaning of grandmother in our family can represent everything, it doesn't matter how I think at all, and it doesn't even matter what my father thinks." β
Their father has been able to get to this point because of the support of his aunt in the palace, so he has never refuted the words of his aunt and grandmother, and this time it is the same.
"Does that mean there's no room for turnaround?"
"No, if the eldest sister comes back, there may be a chance."
The tragedy of their eldest sister is a thorn in the heart of the old grandmother, the wonderful girl who has been raised by her side since she was a child and taught by her own hands was finally delayed by her, and the bitterness in this is probably only known to her.
The most important thing is that if there are still people in the world who can influence the opinions of the current prince, then I am afraid that in addition to the Son of Heaven, she is the only eldest sister.
The woman who was once hurt by him in her bones but also in her heart and lungs, I am afraid that she will not be able to get over it in his life.
"But will the eldest sister come back?"
In order to trick her into coming back, her grandmother even pretended to be sick, and she didn't know how many letters she had, but she seemed to be rooted in Lizhou, and there was no sign of coming back at all.
Will you go back to this sad place now for a sister who doesn't have a deep feeling?
