After He Lingjiang returned to his courtyard, he sat in the house for a long time.

Seeing her calm, Qiong Zhi seemed to have something in her heart, and looked at each other and retreated silently.

I don't know how long it took, but the night was getting darker, and there was a slight sound by the window.

He Ling Jiang's eyebrows moved, and then he came back to his senses. She walked to the window and pushed it open, Pei You, dressed in dark clothes, was standing under the window looking at her.

She turned sideways slightly and motioned for Pei You to come in and speak.

"Auntie, did you ask Qi Kuo to call me over, is there something wrong?" Pei You turned over and entered the house, brushing his slightly messy clothes.

According to Auntie's temperament, if she was fine, she would never take the initiative to call him over.

He Lingjiang nodded and motioned for him to sit down first: "I really have something important to tell you." ”

"Oh?" Pei You couldn't help but be interested, and looked like he was listening.

He Lingjiang poured two cups of tea, handed one to him, and took a sip of one by himself, Fang said slowly: "It is related to He Qiniang's life experience." ”

He Qiniang's life experience?

Pei You looked at her puzzled: "Isn't He Qi Niangzi the daughter of the head of the He family?" Could it be that there are other things that I didn't know before? ”

He Lingjiang bowed slightly: "Today I know from Grandpa's prescription that He Qi Niangzi is not from him. ”

She paused, and then said, "He Qi is the concubine of Prince Yiwen and the crown princess. ”

What?

Pei You couldn't help but be surprised: "In this way, your current identity, Auntie, is actually the daughter of Prince Yiwen?" ”

"Yes." He Lingjiang lowered his eyes and drank tea, and then told him the ins and outs of the matter.

Listening to the past here, Pei You's mind turned, and he instantly understood what she meant by Ling Qi Kuo calling him over.

The identity of He Qi Niangzi was originally a secret that He Xiangshan and the emperor knew, but now although Ah Ji knows, she may not necessarily tell him.

The reason why she confessed frankly was because she believed that after he knew about it, he would definitely be able to think through and make a decision.

There may still be some possibilities for the He family's He Qi Niang and the prince of Zhenbei Wangfu, but Xiao Ji, the daughter of Prince Yiwen, and the future commander of the Zhenbei Army are not only difficult to achieve, but they are not even able to get a little closer.

She had never rejected him outright because of the friendship between the two in the past, but now she put such a fact in front of him, not saying or doing, but her attitude was clear.

He looked at the person in front of him, under the light of the light, her face was like jade, calm and calm, but her heart seemed to be like jade, and she never hesitated for a moment.

Pei You's heart was astringent, and he couldn't help but smile bitterly: "Auntie, don't care about anything else, you tell me, you treat me...... Is it true that there is never half a distraction? ”

He Ling Jiang's heart paused, and he remembered all kinds of times in the past.

thought of when the two first met, eight-year-old Pei You was embarrassed; When I thought of practicing a mystical technique, the two competed with each other; Thinking of their leisure, the two stole the chickens and ducks from the kitchen and slipped into the forest to roast them......

But at this moment, what appeared most in her mind was Pei You, who was a young man who smiled brightly at her, Pei You, who was lying in front of her bed when she woke up from a coma in Yaozhou, Pei You, who said to her under the Li tree, "Bandit retribution, always think it is good", and Pei You, who quietly put Pei You praying for hostas in front of her window......

Somehow, a heart, it's so messed up.

She lifted her eyes, and they crashed into his. There was anticipation, nervousness, and the gloom of not being answered for a long time in those eyes......

He Lingjiang thought that she consciously grew up with Pei You, and she was still a few years older than her, so she had always only regarded his mind as a whim of a young man.

I felt that he had been with him for a long time and was used to her, so he mistakenly gave birth to this kind of heart for her, and maybe one day, he suddenly woke up, and this mind moved to the side.

However, from beginning to end, she never faced her heart.

This kind of heart-to-heart and specialization in occult arts, she said a lot, that is, she herself thought that it was impossible for her to regenerate the emotions of the side.

But in the end, she is not a heartless person.

After waking up from the body of He Qi Niangzi, she met Pei Yu again.

For such a young man with a unique style and deep affection, how can he not have a moment of ripples in his heart after getting along for such a long time?

It's just that she doesn't want the friendship between the two of them to be like relatives and friends for many years mixed with the love of men and women, and she doesn't want to change the original comfortable relationship, so she has never faced that little heartbeat.

The young man in front of him was handsome and incomparable, and he really had a good appearance that was loved by all the ladies in the world, but the light in his eyes was getting fader and fainter, and he seemed to be filled with endless disappointment, He Ling Jiang sighed slightly: "Ah Pei ......"

"Ever since the Northland knew your heart, it would be false to say that I have no heart for you."

"But you also understand that since I was a child, I have cultivated the Tao Sutra and practiced occult arts, and I don't value the relationship between men and women. Compared to your affection, these two heartbeats are too light......"

It's so light that she can admit it calmly, or she can take it back freely.

The affection of young people is always hot and warm, but her shallow heartbeat is very cold, but like the wrinkles of the lake breeze, how can she afford that heavy affection?

When Pei You heard this, his eyes burst out with joy, and a gentle and satisfied smile suddenly poured out of his eyes: "I don't care about that." Auntie, I know you don't mean this, and I never have the luxury of asking you to give you the same affection. I am very affectionate with you, and if you can return my heart, I will be satisfied. ”

He Lingjiang shook his head lightly: "Why are you so troubled?" ”

Pei You smiled: "It's not bitter, I'm willing to eat it." ”

He looked at He Lingjiang and said gently: "I like the taste of a person, sweet and sour, bitter and bitter, taste it all." Even if you get nothing in the end, you can experience it in the meantime, and you will get it. ”

He hopes that his aunt will understand this taste one day, but if she doesn't want to be in the middle, it doesn't matter, between the two, it is enough for him to experience it.

"In this case, this is a different practice." He Lingjiang smiled helplessly.

"How not?" Pei You's eyes were also smiling.

He Lingjiang sighed lightly, and then said solemnly: "Ah Pei, I have answered your question." But what the world wants, not everything goes as it should. It's time to discard, or it's better to discard......"

"You should know the purpose of me telling you about He Qi Niangzi's life story today."

Pei You now lost the frustration in his heart: "Of course I know." He Lingjiang, who has the blood of Prince Yiwen, and Pei You, the prince of the same Zhenbei Palace, naturally have to distance themselves from afar, and only be colleagues who work together to do things for the emperor. ”

"However, in private, I don't talk about identity with you, only about you and me."

He Lingjiang couldn't help but hold his forehead: "What I said was in vain?" ”

Pei You shook his head: "It's not in vain. At least, he knew that Auntie wasn't entirely ruthless.

For him, it is much more difficult to get his aunt's favor than to get the emperor's permission to marry.
