Chapter 41: Going Separately One Night

Pei Yaowei glanced at him, "You say this, can I think that you have believed what I said last night?" ”

Xiangyao's lips trembled slightly, but he did not speak.

She lowered her head and smiled, thought about it, and said solemnly: "Second son, I want to thank you for Qingtan's matter." ”

Then, without waiting for Xiang Yao to speak, she turned her words again: "But she is a girl who has not left the cabinet, it is really inconvenient to stay in the Prime Minister's Mansion, now I want to take her back to the Chu Palace, the son will not have any objections, right?" ”

Xiang Yao frowned, pondered for a moment, and asked, "What if I say yes?" ”

Pei Yaowei smiled calmly, as if she was not surprised by his answer at all.

"Then I don't mind making a big deal out of this matter and sending her back to the palace." She said.

The words landed, and Xiang Yao stood still.

Pei Yaowei also stopped.

After a while, she sighed, and after finishing her cruel words, it was naturally her turn to speak softly: "Second son, I am also thinking about the Xiang family, she stays here, once the news leaks, it will be useless for Yu Jun to be full of doors." ”

Xiang Yao snorted and asked rhetorically: "If you take her back to the Chu Palace, will she be safe?" ”

"If you don't believe Xiao Di, you have to believe me." She said earnestly: "I can see that you care about her, and please believe that my own niece, I will only treat her more than you." ”

Xiang Yao looked at her for a long time, and he didn't say anything when he arrived, but just took the lead and walked towards her courtyard.

When he arrived at the ground, he called Qingtan aside, and he didn't know what the two of them said, but in the end, when Pei Yaowei wanted to take her away, Xiang Yao didn't say anything to stop her.

"Aren't you afraid?"

When he was about to go out, taking advantage of the fact that there was no one left and right, Xiang Yao looked at her back and suddenly asked in a low voice.

Pei Yao was stunned and looked back at him.

He further said, "Aren't you afraid that I will tell others about this? ”

She raised an eyebrow, naturally knowing which thing he was referring to, which person to tell it.

"That's no way around it." She sighed in resignation, walked back in front of him, and said softly: "You and I have been brothers and sisters for the past two years, and I believe that with your person, I will not regret stopping Bu Fei's sword last night." ”

With that, she didn't care about Xiangyao's reaction anymore and turned to leave.

As soon as she got into the carriage, Pei Yaowei had not yet sat down, so she heard Xiao Di ask, "Who is that little girl?" ”

He noticed that there was an unknown girl around Qingchen, and because he didn't know the inside story, he didn't ask questions in front of everyone, and waited until now.

Pei Yaowei had no intention of hiding it from him, and confessed: "Qingtan." ”

Xiao Di was stunned, thinking that he had misheard.

“…… Who? ”

Qingtan ...... Is it Pei Qingtan? But shouldn't she be in the Huaiguo Mansion at this time?

"My niece." Pei Yaowei said while telling him about the matter one by one, "...... When I don't go out, I'm afraid that she will show her face, so I will ask Qingchen to give her a simple appearance! No wonder you don't recognize it. ”

"......I see," Xiao Di listened, and suddenly said: "I said, why did you agree to go back with me so quickly." ”

"Hey, you're not happy anymore, are you?"

As she spoke, she leaned over and wrapped her arm around him and tilted her head over his shoulder.

It's just a joke, recognizing Pei Qingtan, reuniting with the old department, and exposing his identity in front of others, it's not a trivial matter to bring it out. Xiao Di was afraid that she would be uneasy, so she carefully comforted her for a long time, and saw that she was about to go home, so she stopped talking.

"What's wrong with you?" Seeing that he was quiet, Pei Yaowei instead asked what he had been thinking all the way to: "I saw it in the Prime Minister's Mansion just now, you have something in your heart." Don't just worry about me, right? ”

Xiao Di glanced at her, and stopped talking.

"Mausoleum?"

When he returned to the Chu Palace, the door was closed in the Yuguang Palace, and when he heard Xiao Di say that he was going to Lingcheng, Pei Yaowei was very surprised.

"What are you doing in the mausoleum?" She asked, "Is Uncle Wang bad?" ”

Xiao Di shook his head.

"Not on the body." He said, "It's in the heart." ”

Heart?

Pei Yao tasted the meaning of his words, and then looked at his expression at the moment, and after a while, his heart suddenly chuckled.

"Xiao Di ......"

- You're not saying that Uncle Ning Wang has something that shouldn't be moved, right?

She looked at Xiao Di fixedly, and didn't dare to look away for a moment, just waiting for a reassuring answer, but Xiao Di told her: "Earlier, Yun'er went to Lingcheng to ask Uncle Wang for peace, and accidentally saw Uncle Wang having a secret meeting with a mysterious person in Minghui Temple. Later, for the sake of the mirror, Xiang Tao took Huan Bushi to the door, and Yun'er recognized that this retainer of the Duke of Jiyang County was the person in Minghui Temple that day. ”

“…… That, that doesn't prove anything. She tried her best to deny it, but after thinking about it, she suddenly asked, "You often went out a few days ago just to investigate this matter?" ”

For a moment, he closed his eyes and bowed his head.

Pei Yaoyan sat down on the couch all of a sudden, in a trance.

"Yao, Xiang Tao and King Ning secretly colluded to seek national glory, this matter is ...... It can already be determined. ”

Yes, Pei Yaowei knew very well in her heart that if this matter had not been confirmed, with Xiao Di's temperament, she would never talk about it with herself.

"Uncle Wang......" For a long time, she sniffed, tried her best to restrain the tremor in her voice, and asked, "When did he start thinking about it?" ”

Xiao Di shook his head, "I don't know. ”

"That's why I'm going to Lingcheng."

"No!" Pei Yao slammed the table and stood up, and said hurriedly, "What are you going to do?" Question him why he is like this, or try to persuade him to turn back? ”

Xiao Di smiled bitterly and shook his head, "I myself am also a disobedient person, so how can I question Uncle Wang?" ”

She was stunned for a moment, then her eyebrows tightened.

He sighed, "Twenty years after Wu Yao, there are few people in the Xiao clan who I admire.

He counts as one. ”

He looked at her and said: "Pei Yao, now he is going to rebel, I don't ask the reason, I don't know what he wants, and when the time comes, I don't know what I should do." ”

She understood what he meant. is also a rebel, and there is no longer a reason to only allow the governor to set fires and not allow the people to light lamps, but ......

In her opinion, King Ning and him are still a little different in the end.

"From the two kings to the present, everyone in the world knows that you will not be Xiao Zhu's courtier. Uncle Kening is not a minister, how many people know? ”

Xiao Di did not speak.

Pei Yaowei took a deep breath and continued: "If Uncle Wang had the heart to care about you, he would not sit at home and wait for you to ask.

Xiao Di, his move is not only to make up his mind to be an enemy of Xiao Zhu, but he also wants to be an enemy of you. How can you let me rest assured that you will step into Longtan? ”

After she finished speaking, after a long time, Xiao Di was still silent.

She understood that he had already known what she said, but even so, he still had to go.

After a moment's thought, she reassured herself and told him, "If you have to go, I'll go with you." ”

At this time, Xiao Di spoke: "Don't mess around! ”

"I'm not messing around." As she spoke, she got up and straightened her clothes, and said, "Think about it, either let's go together, or don't go to either of us." ”

With that, she walked out of the door.

That night, after the moon passed in the middle of the sky, Xiao Di secretly waited for a long time in the side hall of the Hebi Palace, and finally waited for the movement.

He pushed open the door of the hall, glanced at the roof of the main hall with sharp eyes, and then smiled faintly.

Walking into the court, he put a jar of wine in his hand on the stone table, and at the same time, with his internal force, he sent a low voice to the roof: "More deeply exposed, the gentleman on the beam, why don't you come down and drink a cup together, so as not to be cold." ”

After that, he took the lead in sitting, and after a while, a figure fell to the ground, like a ghost.

He looked up at the man.

Dressed in a night suit, with a face towel, only a pair of firm and deep eyes were revealed.

Xiao Di smiled lightly and said, "Your Excellency is Bu Fei." ”

Bu Feiyi frowned, paused, and ripped off the face towel.

"His Royal Highness the King of Chu." He called, and there was no emotion in his tone.

Xiao Di bowed his head and invited him to take a seat, "I know who you are here to see." Pei Yaowei has already told me about the Prime Minister's Mansion. ”

Bu Fei's face became more and more exciting.

He can't say that he didn't expect everything about the situation in front of him, but when it really happened, he always felt a little unreal.

At the other end, Xiao Di said again: "I deliberately found an excuse to move her to live elsewhere for a few days, just to wait for you to come." ”

He looked at Bu Fei, his eyes full of deep meaning: "Before you go to see her, I have a few words that I want to talk to you." ”

"I wonder if your Excellency would like to see your face?"

Bu Fei stood still for a moment.

If it had been six or seven years ago, if he had seen the person in front of him, he would have drawn his sword and fought hard.

But now, after a moment's hesitation, he shifted his steps and sat down across from him.

Xiao Di smiled, pushed the glass, and gave him a glass of wine.

A few days after returning home, Pei Yao saw that the sky was planning the affairs at the other end of the mausoleum, and although Xiao Di had not yet nodded, he had already instructed Yu Xu to pack his bags. Unexpectedly, a sudden news from the north completely messed up her plan to walk with Xiao Di.

-- Zhao Xun, the prince of Yasukuni, was seriously ill, and Zhao sent an envoy to Beijing to seek medical treatment from the king of Chu, hoping that Mr. Yiyuan would go north to save his life.

When Pei Yaowei heard this, she was in suspense, and she had already had the heart to meet Zhao Ju, so she thought about it, so she had to let go and go to Lingcheng alone, and at the same time, she went north to Beilin with Mr. Yiyuan.

Mr. Yiyuan went out of the city for many days, Xiao Di specially found the person back, and after explaining the matter in the Yuguang Palace on this day, he asked him to go back to prepare, and set off for the north the next day.

As soon as Mr. Yiyuan left, Pei Yao looked at him resentfully: "It's okay now, are you happy?" ”

Xiao Di pinched her face with a smile: "The sick one is also my nephew, what do I have to be happy about?" ”

"What's more, the road to the north is much longer than Lingcheng. I'm afraid it's too late for you to go. ”

She snorted: "You even sent Gu Zijun to me, don't you worry?" ”

He sighed heavily, and said in his heart: Where can I rest assured.

After thinking about it, he instructed, "You have to pay attention to yourself." Yasukuni Gong ......"

"Don't worry! That's my cousin, just like my dear, except for you, I'm the safest by his side in the world. ”

Xiao Di smiled, didn't say anything, took a letter from the library and handed it to her: "This is my letter to Yu Jin, you can hand it over to her when you get to Beilin." ”

At the mention of his cousin, some guilt surged between his eyebrows: "Over the years, the relationship between the couple has not been good, and it is also my responsibility, this is what I am ashamed of them, you ......"

Pei Yaowei took his words understandingly: "Well, don't worry. ”

She took a step closer and snuggled into his arms, "What to do, I have a sense of proportion." ”

Xiao Di nodded, and every stroke on her hair was full of reluctance.

"Come back safely." He said.

She replied softly and said, "You too." ”
