Chapter 49: Now Is Not the Past (1)
As for Wen Lian's intention, Instant Yu didn't know what to say, but obviously, she didn't want to tell Princess Chu.
"The slave doesn't dare to speculate, the princess is still ......"
At this point, Instant Rain was interrupted by a sudden sound of smashing in the hall.
Even through the heavy hall door, the voice was still abrupt and sharp, and several people outside the hall were scared and shivered.
Pei Yao's brows furrowed, and at the moment, she couldn't care about the instant rain's obstruction, forcibly pushed her away, and was about to go inside.
Unexpectedly, when he came to the door, the door of the temple was opened from the inside.
It's tenderness.
The two looked at each other and were shocked. Wen Lian came back to her senses, the anger on her face subsided slightly, and she turned back to Xiao Di behind her and said her last words: "In short, you already know the matter, if you can't give me people back safely, then I will take you with me and go to Xiao Huan's grave to apologize for his sins!" ”
"I can say it, I can do it!"
After that, she glanced at Pei Yao, and then walked away.
A sense of foreboding slowly gathered in his heart, and panic was faintly visible on Pei Yao's face. Although Wen Lian did not name names, the meaning of these words has a very obvious point.
"What's wrong?" She looked at Xiao Di calmly, secretly hoping for his answer, vetoing her guess: "Who is missing?" ”
Xiao Di glanced at her deeply, and did not answer for a while, but ordered to Instant Rain: "Call me Chaoyang." ”
Instant rain led the order away, and Pei Yaowei followed him closely and entered the library.
Xiao Di sat behind the bookcase, took a map of the north and spread it out in front of him.
"King Huai'an." He said, glancing up at her, "You know?" ”
Really.
She knew that except for Xiao Yun in this world, there was no one who could associate Xiao Di with Wen Lian.
She suddenly took a hard breath, and looked at him with a gaze full of disbelief, "You lost Xiao Yun......"
She really knows ......
Xiao Di's mind moved slightly, thought about it, frowned and said, "Princess, your words are really very polite. ”
He suddenly became so serious, which also pushed the impatience and anger in Pei Yao's heart even higher.
"King Huai'an......" Her voice trembled, and her back molars seemed to tremble, "If you lose King Huai'an, you have the burden of His Royal Highness King Qi." I have a kind of kindness to you, and you have to deserve this kind of kindness! ”
She admonished herself in her heart to be patient, but the further she said this, the more she couldn't hold back her temper. In the end, she felt that she could no longer look at him.
When Wei Chaoyang entered the door, he almost bumped into Princess Chu, who was covered in fire.
He panicked, hurriedly steadied his steps and saluted, and waited for the people to go away before entering.
"Your Highness, the princess, she ......"
was first called over by the instant rain, and then bumped into such a scene, Wei Chaoyang was really a little confused now, and he didn't know what happened.
Xiao Di's face was slightly gloomy, and he looked out of the window for a moment, and suddenly asked him: "Chaoyang, do you remember who entrusted Yun'er to me behind King Qi back then?" ”
Hearing this, Wei Chaoyang was stunned.
"Yes......" He hesitated for a moment before replying, "It's Empress Renyi." ”
Yes, it's Empress Renyi.
She arranged the aftermath of Xiao Yun before he had time to arrange it for him - it was she who desperately protected Xiao Yun before Xiao cut down the grass and eradicated the roots, and secretly sent it to the north and to herself.
This weight of entrustment is not Xiao Hui's, nor is it merciful, but Pei Yao's.
Xiao Di got up and walked to the window, and outside, Xiang Yu's figure had disappeared.
He couldn't understand why she reacted so much to Xiao Yun's matter.
If she really knew Pei Yaowei's role in this, it would be just that. But in her words, she only thought that this was something that Xiao had entrusted to herself.
What else does she have to do with Xiao?
She...... Who exactly is it?
Pei Yao didn't go to the Bidian.
As soon as she came out of the Yuguang Palace, she ignored the persuasion and obstruction of the maids, insisted on preparing the car, chased the gentle ruts, and came to the Qiwang Mansion with her feet in front and back.
"Why did you come along?" When Wen Lian saw her, her face softened a lot, and her words were full of surprise.
Pei Yaowei returned to the dormitory with her all the way, and asked, "What happened to Xiao Yun?" ”
Wen pity looked at him.
Huai'an Wang Xiao Yun is the only sibling brother of Qi Wang Xiao. When Yan Ping died in the second year, he was only nine years old.
At that time, Pei Yaowei knew that Xiao Zhu had the intention of cutting the grass and eradicating the roots, she wanted to save Xiao Yun, but she couldn't risk implicating others, thinking about it, she only thought of one person.
"Actually, in all fairness, since you entrusted Xiao Yun to Xiao Di, over the years, he has been very conscientious in raising that child." Wen Lian held the cup of tea and said with a wry smile: "I know all this." ”
"But this time......"
Pei Yao hurriedly said, "What's wrong this time?" ”
Wen Lian glanced at her and sighed.
"He's in Pan Quan's hands." After a while, she said.
"Pan Quan?!" Pei Yao stood up on the spot, and after a long pause, his mind turned a corner.
She muttered, "...... A few days ago, the Pan family returned to their hometown to mourn, for this reason, Pan Cheng did not hesitate to abandon the position of General Wei, at that time I thought, Pan's rebellion is so obvious, how can Pan Cheng not be afraid of him falling into your hands......"
Wen Lian sneered, "Yes, how smart he is, it doesn't matter if he knows that he has a handle in my hands - the real thing is that he doesn't have my handle in his hands." ”
"And then he arrested Xiao Yun?" Pei Yaowei asked, "But Xiao Yun is in the north, and the Pan family is in the south, before you came to the door today, I haven't heard the slightest rumor from Xiao Di, if Xiao Yun really falls into the hands of Pan Quan, then Xiao Di's people are slow to react, they should have known it a long time ago!" ”
Wen Lian snorted, "But Xiao Yun is not in the north." ”
Pei Yaowei was slightly stunned.
"I was in Lingcheng, and as soon as I received the news from Pan Quan, I immediately set off and came back. I went to the door to question Xiao Yun, and I learned from him that four or five months ago, Xiao Yun left the north under the pretext of traveling. About half a month ago, the person who accompanied him to escort him reported to Xiao Di, saying that the little prince had left the book and got rid of them. ”
"Xiao Yun's temperament has always been like this, he doesn't like to be restrained, and he hates to be followed by people around him. Xiao Di said that there had been such a thing two years earlier, Xiao Yun slipped out to play for a few days, and when he was relieved, he came back, so this time, he didn't take it seriously, he just scattered more people to find it. ”
"Before I went to the Chu Palace, he didn't expect Xiao Yun to fall into the hands of Pan Quan."
After Wen Lian finished speaking, Pei Yao was there, not standing, not sitting, and panicked.
When she was in the Bath Light Hall just now, what she said to Xiao Di was not so much blaming him as she was blaming herself.
She and Xiao Yun have never gotten along too much. But after Xiao Huan's death, from the time she took Xiao Yun out of the Qiwang Mansion and sent him to the north, she had a complicated responsibility for the child.
Xiao Yun's future was decided by her. If he suffers any bad luck on this path...... For her, it was equivalent to sending him to doom herself.
Suddenly, there was a chuckle with a strong sense of self-deprecation, and when she looked sideways, she saw Wen Lian's expression of bitterness, and said, "Actually, I was wrong." ”
"What?"
"I went to Xiao Di today to question, it really doesn't make sense. Speaking of which, it's me who is wrong. Wen Lian said abruptly: "Pan Quan's arrest is to balance me." If it weren't for me, he wouldn't have been here. My eldest sister-in-law has never taken care of him, and now she is embarrassed to attack the person who brought him up......"
Speaking of this, she nodded sincerely, looked at Pei Yao and said, "Your Royal Highness the King of Chu didn't let the dog out of me, so he has a good temper." ”
Pei Yaowei was so crying and laughing by her that she said.
"Pan Cheng has arrested someone, what is his idea?" After a while, she asked Wen Lian: "Is it just to threaten you with his safety, so that you don't dare to tell him about Pan Xi, or ...... And the other side calculations? ”
Pan Quan's letter said that as long as I don't embarrass him, he will guarantee Xiao Yun's safety. It's just that people like him don't have to take what they say seriously. Wen said pitifully: "However, for Xiao Yun, for Xiao Zhu, it was to cut down the grass and eradicate the root troubles back then, and it was to ...... Even if Pan Cheng has other calculations, then this calculation will only be on Xiao Di. ”
Pei Yao rubbed her temples and asked impatiently, "What did Xiao Di say?" ”
Wen Lian frowned when she heard this, "Didn't you just come out of the Chu Palace?" You ask me? After thinking about it, she looked Pei Yao up and down, and suddenly said, "Grandma, are you ...... It's not running away from home, is it? ”
Pei Yaowei rolled her eyes and didn't answer her.
However, for a while, she really didn't want to go back.
"What, for Xiao Yun's business?" Wen Lian said helplessly: "Then you don't have to, in this matter, Xiao Di is at most a negligence of protection, and I am the source of trouble here, it makes no sense that you are more angry when you look at him than at me, right?" ”
Pei Yaowei was silent for a while, then suddenly breathed a heavy sigh of relief and shook her head.
"It's not just that." "I had a little bit of a skirmish with him before," she said. He's been away from home for days, and he's only coming back today. ”
Wen Lian was stunned for a long time, and suddenly sneered a few times, "Co-author, you two are running away from home in shifts?" "But why?" she asked. ”
Pei Yao was under her gaze, aggrieved for a while, and then snorted and said, "For Pan Tian." ”
"Pan Tian?" Wen Lian was stunned, "How many years has she been dead, why did you suddenly mention her again?" As she spoke, she suddenly thought of something, and suddenly said, "You're not ...... He won't know who you are, will he? ”
Pei Yaowei waved his hand, "How is it possible!" You think too much, this kind of thing, I don't dare to let it happen for a moment. ”
