A mansion in the firmament.

Pei Qian stood in the middle of the main hall with a cold expression, and the faint candle flame flickered and reflected the handsome face. The resolute and thinner edges and corners showed his fatigue in recent days.

At this time, Mrs. Gu on the opposite side was dressed in a blue dress and sat dignified on the Taishi chair. His eyes looked at Pei Qian intently, his right hand clutched the armrest of the chair tightly, obviously with an angry face.

"Now, it has been nearly ten days since Xijun disappeared. Madame is in a state of knowing everything, aren't you worried about her at all?!" Pei Qian was dressed in a dark color Fang Shi robe, his face was serious, and his voice was low.

"Don't worry about how I will come to the firmament in person! But she has been stubborn since she was a child, and has she ever heard the advice of others! When she came, I repeatedly instructed her not to provoke right and wrong! What about now? After causing such a big incident, she was good and hid without saying a word!" Gu Qinyue patted the mahogany table next to her excitedly, and the golden hairpin on her head swayed non-stop.

Pei Qian snorted coldly, and said with righteous indignation and disdain: "It turns out that Madame is still concerned about the reputation of the Gu family when she comes to the firmament, and He has ever worried about her safety. Now that there is no one on the Lu family's side, there is no evidence, and if this matter is a big problem, Madame can take the opportunity to oppose the army and raise the reputation of the Gu family! Wouldn't it just happen to fall into Madame's hands? You are really a good means!"

After Gu Qinyue heard this, she immediately stood up angrily, stretched out her hand and pointed at Pei Gan, her face full of anger, "Xi Jun has some skills no matter how bad she is, how can someone disappear for no reason? If she hadn't been fooling around with you all these years, how could she have learned to be so bold and reckless now!"

"It seems that until now, Madame still thinks that she is deliberately hiding! Then today is in vain, farewell!" Pei Qian folded his hands, shook his sleeves, picked up his robe and turned around to go out.

"Brother Yuhan!" the sweet voice immediately sounded rapidly from the side.

"You are not allowed to follow!" Gu Qinyue roared again, but it was aimed at Gu Xiaodie, who was going to go out with Pei Gan.

Gu Xiaodie was so frightened that she trembled on the spot, she originally wanted to follow Pei Qian to find Gu Xijun together. was shouted by Mrs. Gu like this, and immediately looked left and right, and interjected in a low voice: "But Madam, it's about to dawn." The Lu Clan's festival is about to begin!"

"You are not allowed to leave my side again in the near future, when the festival is over, quickly follow me back to the ancestral house!"

"Oh. Xiaodie lowered her head, and the two big eyes of the thief kept stealing glances at Pei Qian.

But Pei Gan stood there without saying a word, his eyes full of anger.

Gu Qinyue glanced at Xiaodie and looked at Pei Qian again, "You go back to the room first, I have something to say to him alone." ”

"Oh. ”

Gu Xiaodie saw that there was no room for maneuver in this matter, and replied in a low voice. Then he pouted and walked out of the hall worriedly.

"Let me ask you, who is the person next to Xi Jun? I have checked his details, and he is not a so-called child of a rich family, and the others have never been investigated for half a point! This matter is related to the safety of Xi Jun, you don't want to perfunctory old body!" Gu Qinyue's voice was low, with a hint of coercion.

Pei Qian's cold eyes were half-narrowed, "Then, why isn't Madam perfunctory?"

"Okay, now that we're all talking, let's just get started. Ten years ago, I read that you could protect the former monarch and allow you to make friends. Now that the ancient families have discovered her existence, how can you allow her to be accompanied by an unknown dangerous person? What is your real purpose in approaching her? I don't think she needs to treat you as a friend in the future!"

"Heh, does that lady think that it is more dangerous than the secret crossing of Chen Cang?" Pei Qian laughed coldly.

"What do you mean by that?"

"If it weren't for Madame's guidance, how could Gu Xijun be in danger now!"

Gu Qinyue suddenly became puzzled, and secretly clenched her fists, "What do you want to say?"

"It's nothing, Yu Han just wanted to say, in the future, you take your Yangguan Road, and I will take my single-plank bridge. However, my goal has never changed! I will always protect him with my life. At that time, if there is a conflict, don't blame me for being ruthless to Madame!" Pei Qian finished speaking in one breath, and then walked out of the hall.

Gu Qinyue's eyes immediately showed a fierce light, and he was furious, and there was no longer the peace of the past. Shouted to stop Pei Gan, "Wait, what do you mean by this?"

Hearing her question, Pei Qian stopped, slowly turned around, looked directly at Gu Qinyue with his eyes, and said word by word: "You should understand, Mrs. Gu." No, maybe I should call you—Madame Ji!"

Lu Jiao, who was dressed in full costume, stood quietly in front of the bronze mirror at this moment.

A trace of hair is gently brushed, the sleeves are rolled up, and a gold bracelet is worn on the white wrist. A phoenix-shaped golden hairpin is inserted on his head, and an emerald green jade is worn on his waist. The jewels on the body sparkle and are dotted with coral and orbs.

The breeze blows, the pink silk placket flutters in the spring breeze, and the light skirt swirls in the wind.

Lu Yao, who was standing on the side, took a jade comb and arranged her hair again.

After taking care of it, Lu Yao took a few steps back and praised in a low voice: "My sister is really naturally beautiful, bright and moving." This is exactly what reflects that sentence, tasting the peerless color, and recovering the posture of the city. Luo Yi is fluttering, and the light coat is returned with the wind. ”

The corners of Lu Jiao's bright red mouth curled slightly, and she said arrogantly: "My sister is not bad, she is still clever and clever! However, it is better to use your smart mind where it should be used." ”

"That's natural! Fortunately, my sister was able to come out of that cold, lonely, dark place. In the future, my sister will give everything she has and repay her with all her might!" Lu Yao immediately rolled her eyes and leaned over to thank her.

"It's good to know! In the future, as long as you do things for me wholeheartedly, you will get everything you want from me, wealth, prestige, status, or ...... A good husband!" Lu Jiao turned around, and the heavy makeup was painted on her pretty and white face, looking arrogant and cold.

Lu Yao cried with joy after hearing this, and hurriedly thanked her again, "Yao'er will definitely take her sister as the head of the horse in the future!"

Lu Jiao continued to hook the corners of her mouth, looking at herself in the mirror, but it was even more gloomy. Finally, she pulled a long voice and said, "Okay, you go down first." After today's festival, I'll tell you about it, you know...... Those fun facts!"

"Wow!" Lu Yao bowed lightly, walked out of the boudoir, and closed the door.

Lu Jiao pulled the hem of her skirt and slowly walked to the side of the bed. He took out a small knife inlaid with seven-colored stones from the head of the bed and stared deeply with a desolate gaze.

Dark purple nails slid lightly across the scabbard, resting on the blue Tear of the Maiden in the middle. This is exactly the Colorful Wind Blade she wanted to give to Gu Xijun in the treasure house before.

"So you're really using me......! Then don't blame me!"

I miss who we used to be, but I prefer who I am now......
