Chapter 57: Thick-skinned

After all, this mansion didn't come out all of a sudden, and it's not a very unusual thing that the owner of this mansion is back now. Tang Qianling replied.

"Do you mean that we need to stay here for a while?" Xu Xi asked.

Tang Qianling nodded and said: "It depends on how the matter is investigated this time, the master said that it is possible to take as little as three or five days, or as long as ten days and half a month, so it is easier to live in your own home, it is easier to get in and out, and it is easier to get things done." ”

Compared to living in the inn, you still need to worry about security, if you do something, you have to pay attention to whether anyone will pay attention, it is indeed a little troublesome, but this is your own home, it is much easier to do, this close the door, who knows who?

In this regard, Xu Xi also nodded, indicating that he understood.

Following Tang Qianling and walking inside, Pei Huai's figure had already disappeared, and Xu Xi had no intention of looking for him, anyway, he couldn't lose it, after all, this was his mansion, and he should be more familiar with her than an outsider. She's the one who needs to be cared about if she's going to get lost.

So, I didn't let me sleep early in the morning, so that I could wear gold and silver and live in this mansion? But it doesn't need to be so early, right?

Even if you don't want to attract attention, but this is so high-profile on the street, so many people are watching, someone has already paid attention to it, okay?

I really don't know, where does this come from?

"Qianling, what is the purpose of our visit this time?" Xu Xi asked.

"Huh? Sister Xu didn't know about it? Tang Qianling looked at Xu Xi very strangely and asked out loud.

Xu Xi shook her head very honestly, saying that she really didn't know, at first she just wanted to come out, and she didn't want to be trapped in the Mirror Lake Palace, and then she just guessed that they were actually going to investigate secretly, but she really didn't know what to investigate.

Pei Huai didn't tell her, and Nie Chenghui didn't say it, the most important thing is that she didn't ask about it herself, and she didn't ask about it until now.

Of course, when it comes to asking about this matter, it is naturally better to ask Tang Qianling, because Tang Qianling is relatively simple and easy to ask, and it will not be like Pei Huai or Nie Chenghui, who has too many flowers.

She was afraid that they would join forces and sell her, so Tang Qianling was more reliable.

If you don't ask him about this, who do you ask?

"Why didn't you come and ask me personally?" As soon as these words came out, Tang Qianling turned around and looked over, and shouted respectfully: "Master." ”

Xu Xi saw Pei Huai standing under the shade of the tree like that, only ten steps away from the corridor where she was standing now.

Obviously, he was wearing the white robe when he came in just now, but now, he has changed his clothes, no longer the bright white color before, but not the dark color, but the cyan that seems to have a little purple in it.

Such a color match, the two echo each other, but it is extremely eye-catching, so that people can't ignore it.

Not to mention, it has to be matched with Pei Huai's handsome face, if he was wearing such a long shirt before, I'm afraid that Du Shanju would not just be verbally teasing, but should be directly pounced, and then dragged back to the house to be her husband who doesn't know how many rooms.

"As soon as I came in, you were gone." Xu Xi said, "Besides, it's not an important matter for me to ask, Qianling will be able to answer me, why do you need to trouble you, Master Guoshi?" You are busy, where does the little girl dare to disturb you? Forget it, just have a thousand tombs. ”

Moreover, the person who ignored her first was him, and now he blames her for not asking him, this man's temperament is really changeable, doesn't it all say that this woman is fickle? How can it be put on this Pei Huai's body, and it will be the same use?

Compared to the woman's face, I'm afraid this Pei Huai's face change is even higher, right?

"Qianling still has things to deal with, I don't have time to pay attention to you, you come with this seat." Pei Huai said, turned around and left.

He wasn't afraid that Xu Xi would not follow, he knew that she didn't have the guts.

Tang Qianling was standing under the cloister, scratching his head, a little puzzled, just now the master said that he still had something to deal with, but he remembered that he had already done everything that needed to be done, why did he still say that he had something to deal with?

But, he didn't know what was going on.

Could it be that there was something he had forgotten?

"What do you want to ask?" Pei Huai took Xu Xi to the study, and as soon as he sat down, Pei Huai was the first to ask, and his tone was careless.

Xu Xi was so asked by him that he almost choked to death with his own saliva.

He didn't hear what she asked Tang Qianling before, so what did he say?

She thought he had heard.

"You don't know what I'm asking Qianling about?" Xu Xi looked at Pei Huai and asked tentatively.

"Yes." Pei Huai said, "You're repeating, listen to it." ”

"What?" Xu Xi was a little dumbfounded all of a sudden, what is this? Could this Pei Huai be starting to have convulsions again now?

If that's the case, then it's better for her to ask Tang Qianling, or not to ask him, she always feels a little unsafe.

Seeing that Xu Xi didn't want to say it again, Pei Huai said automatically at this time: "Do you want to know what the purpose of our trip is?" ”

Ask while knowing the answer!

Xu Xi didn't answer, but in his heart, he answered Pei Huai like this.

"You must have said in your heart that I knowingly asked on purpose, right?" Seeing that Xu Xi stopped talking, Pei Huai said again.

Do you know this? Could it be that the roundworm in her stomach can't do it?

"This seat is not a roundworm in your stomach, but you have written these clearly on your face, and it is difficult not to let people know." Pei Huai said again.

"Liar." Xu Xi said.

She has always been a person who is extremely good at hiding her looks, if she doesn't want others to know her thoughts, she will definitely not show it, so where will she let Pei Huai know her inner thoughts? It's clear that she's just smiling all the time now, okay?

I really don't know where this is written on her face?

"Lie or not, is what I said not right?" Pei Huai looked at Xu Xi and asked.

"Okay, what you always say, Master Guoshi, is right." Xu Xi said with a smile.

Don't have a lot of worries with such a moody man, be careful and be remembered by him again, maybe when it will be time for her to turn over old accounts and wear small shoes.

"I'm old?" Pei Huai asked, he was obviously only twenty-eight years old.

"Not old, not old, not old at all." Xu Xi said, "What I just said is actually just Zun Chen, you don't have to care, hehe....." said, and couldn't help but laugh dryly twice, once to hide his embarrassment.

"Really?" Pei Huai asked casually.

"Really, truer than pearls." Xu Xi hurriedly nodded and said, I'm afraid that if I am a step too late, this man will change his face, but she can't bear it a little, so let's coax it well!

Xu Xi looked at Pei Huai, but he was actually a little weak-hearted.

Not to mention the incident the night before yesterday, just saying that it was just on the street already made Xu Xi very embarrassed.

I really don't know why, with Pei Huai, there will always be such and such things happening, and every time it is related to her.

Actually, she's quite innocent, okay?

If she could have a choice, she would definitely not choose to have something to do with him, but she was the one who swore in her heart that she wanted to be alone in this life, besides, looking at Pei Huai, it didn't seem to mean anything to her.

Since he doesn't love her, he is teasing her anyway, such a man, if he says it well, he is flowery, and if he doesn't say it, he is purely underwhelmed.

If he couldn't beat Pei Huai, and he really didn't dare to fight, Xu Xi really wanted to beat him, so that Pei Huai could sober up and not always provoke her with nothing to do.

If this is the case, if she really provokes her, one day, she will definitely let this national teacher who occasionally has convulsions know that if she provokes her, if he still refuses to be responsible, there is absolutely no good fruit to eat, so it is better not to provoke her easily.

Once provoked, you must be responsible, and all irresponsible provocative behaviors are pure hooliganism. And if you dare to play hooligan on her Xu Xi's head, it is the rhythm of looking for death. She's going to make that guy die in a rhythmic way.

"Why don't you say it again?" Looking at Xu Xi, who had quieted down, Pei Huai couldn't help asking.

Xu Xi was still a little silent, what did you want her to say? Isn't everything that needs to be said already said? If anyone wants to speak, it should be Pei Huai who speaks, right?

At least so far, he still hasn't been able to tell her what they're here for.

This frontier city is located in the northernmost part of this great dynasty, and there is a feeling of wind and sand blowing everywhere, and there is a feeling of overwhelming haze, compared to the previous capital in modern society, sometimes it is really wind and sand that covers your eyes, and you can't see the road ahead.

And here, indeed, the junction of the two countries, there is a northern Tartar eye, so this side of the frontier city can also be said to be a very important strategic fortress, just ten kilometers away from the frontier city, is where the boundary between the two countries is located.

In front of this boundary, there are many dark sentinels that are always watching the other party's movements, and once the other party gathers troops on the border, this side can also react quickly to deal with it.

Therefore, in this city, the general is the person who has absolute real power, just like the father of Du Shanju who met on the street before, isn't Du Jiangling the general who guards the city?

He is a person who has real power, and it can be said that in this frontier city, no one can surpass him.

This is also the main reason why this Du Shanju can be so unscrupulous to rob the people to be a husband, think about it, those men and his family are unwilling to come forward to crusade against this Du Jiangling's daughter Du Shanju, which is also the reason why they have this room.
