Coming back from Yefu, Pei Jinfeng brought back a scroll of paintings to Pei Jinzhen, freehand landscapes, at a glance, it was from Ye Zhun's hand, and the painting was the tea plum forest in the back mountain of Xuanqing Guan, and there were many distant mountains.

Instead of blaming, he sent a painting.

Pei Jinfeng said, "Brother Jiuwei said that he didn't think about it, and this painting can be regarded as making amends for your sins." ”

"In the future, if I want to invite you, I can only wait for you to become a relative, and I will invite you with Second Brother Yan."

Yan Chong was also mentioned.

Pei Jinzhen smiled slightly, "You should tell Mr. Ye that when there is someone in his house, I can go too." ”

Pei Jinfeng hesitated slightly, and then said, "Today, I listened to the eldest brother and Brother Jiuwei talk about them during the banquet, and I learned that many families in Beijing wanted to marry Brother Jiuwei, but he refused. ”

Pei Jinfeng really regards Ye Zhun as a friend, so he will naturally worry about him.

Pei Jinzhen's eyes flashed twice, Ye Zhun had only been in the Hanlin Academy for less than half a year, and he mentioned the revision of the Hanlin Academy, although he was only a six-grade petty official, but compared to Ji Shuxuan and Pei Jinhuan and others who were at the same time as him, he was already ahead.

It shows that Emperor Yonghe respects and promotes him, and such a small official is naturally a candidate for a quick son-in-law in the minds of many people in Fengjing City.

"But...... Why did Mr. Ye refuse? At his age, it stands to reason that it should be time to start a family. Let alone...... He now has a great future, and he has a good relationship, and he will be strengthened by him, right? Pei Jinzhen asked casually while looking at the painting.

"Who knows, Xu is...... Once the sea was hard to water! Pei Jinfeng sighed.

These words caused Pei Jinzhen to raise her head suddenly, Pei Jinfeng looked at her, and then she remembered in a trance that Sister A and Ji Shuya were very close and often corresponded.

After a little hesitation, he said, "This is also what the eldest brother accidentally told me about that day, saying that on the day Miss Ji got married, Brother Jiuwei was drunk. He is not in good health, and he is the most self-disciplined on weekdays, and he never gets drunk...... But that night, it was a posture of pouring himself down one cup after another, and the eldest brother said that although he kept smiling and didn't say anything, he looked sad. ”

Pei Jinzhen didn't sympathize with it very much, "Isn't he unwilling to marry?" Now, when someone is married, what kind of affection does he come to pretend to be deep and meaningful, and he can't ask for it? ”

For this point, Pei Jinzhen has always been uneasy. Past...... The couple who are the envy of everyone in the entire Fengjing City have a deep affection, why did they become what they are today.

If Ye Zhun is because of the champion and the first, so he can't look down on Ji Shuya, then, in his previous life, Ji Shuya was like that, why did he marry her?

Also, on the day Ji Shuya got married, why did he make such a gesture?

In short, this kind of seed is like a mess, there should be a source, find the source, follow it, maybe it will be opened, but the source is too ethereal, invisible, intangible.

"Who knows." Pei Jinfeng shook his head, he was still a young man with unopened emotions, how could he understand Ye Zhun's deep emotions and thoughts. "In short, Brother Jiuwei should also have his own last resort!"

As a last resort? The corners of Pei Jinzhen's mouth twitched slightly, if it was said, as Pei Jinhuan and Pei Jinfeng said, Ye Zhun was really affectionate to Ji Shuya, but he forced himself to give up her for some unavoidable reason, then ...... What kind of ruthless person is this? And why would you make such a choice?

Pei Jinji's eyes flashed slightly, she didn't dare to think about it, but she had to think about it.

As soon as Pei Jinfeng left, Pei Jinzhen took out a letter that had been written in advance and handed it to Hongxuan, "You go to the British Mansion and hand over this letter to Cousin Ke by hand." If he is free, please be sure to meet me as soon as possible. ”

Seeing the solemnity on the girl's face, Hongxuan was slightly stunned, but she also understood the importance of the letter even more, nodded and turned to leave.

Pei Jinzhen was undecided, so he laid paper and ink, and began to practice calligraphy.

After a while, Hongxuan came back sweating profusely, for fear of delay, she ran and ran back, but the result was not very satisfactory. "The prince has official business, and he said that he went out of Beijing on business, and he didn't know when he would return. The slave and maid were afraid that it would be inappropriate, so they did not explain what it was, and the letter was not brought out. Hongxuan replied as she took out the letter.

Pei Jinzhen frowned, but he didn't expect that at this time, Cousin Ke was not there.

Pei Jinzhen was only distressed for a moment, and the next moment, he took the letter handed by Hongxuan, and then took out another written letter and handed it to her, "Since Cousin Ke is not here, then I have to forget it." You go to Xunyang Bofu again and give this letter to Shao Sigongzi. ”

Hongxuan didn't know what her girl was going to do, but she had to obediently answer "yes", and then she took the letter and walked out quickly.

Pei Jinzhen took two deep breaths, and went back to continue practicing calligraphy, only practicing several pieces of paper in a row, but the more he wrote, the worse he wrote. Pei Jinzhen twisted his eyebrows, looked at the slightly messy handwriting under the pen dissatisfied, heard the footsteps, but didn't care about anything else, threw the pen into the pen wash, and hurriedly greeted him.

"How's it going?" Sure enough, it was Hongxuan who came back, and Pei Jinzhen didn't wait for her to speak, but asked urgently.

Hongxuan didn't dare to delay, and said busily, "The letter was handed over to Shao Sigongzi, and he left the slave and maid to reply." After reading the letter, he only said that the first thing was easy to do, and he had already explained it, so please rest assured. The second thing is to ask the girl to wait patiently, and he will inform her as soon as there is news from there. ”

Fortunately, this time it is good news.

Pei Jinzhen let out a long sigh of relief, and the originally tightened eyebrows were also stretched.

He Yan Yuese smiled and looked at the red silk who was still a little worried, and said, "I've worked hard for you today, let's go down and rest first!" ”

As soon as Hongxuan left, Pei Jinzhen turned his head, and put the letter he was about to send to Yuan Ke on the candle flame at hand, and watched the tongue of fire roll up, swallowing and burning up the paper with ink inch by inch...... Pei Jinzhen's eyes and expression were calm.

There are only two people she can rely on for this matter.

It's just that Yuan Ke is not there, but fortunately, Shao Qian still sells her face. Of course, she knew very well that Shao Qian was looking at Yan Chong's face, otherwise, what was she? It's just that in this way, Yan Chong can't hide it. That's fine...... After all, we have to be a husband and wife, and there is nothing wrong with being honest.

"Girl." The paper was already burned out, and when Pei Jinzhen looked at the jumping candle flame and was stunned, outside the door, there was a faint voice of Mama Yuan.

Pei Jinzhen suddenly came back to his senses, and when he looked up, he saw that Mama Yuan personally raised the curtain and took a young woman into the house.

Pei Jinzhen greeted him with a smile, "Why is Sister Luomei here?" ”

It was the big girl next to Xiao Yuan's side, called Luomei.

Luomei saluted, smiled and asked, "Mrs. sent a slave maid to ask the girl, maybe she will take a leave tomorrow?" ”
