Chapter Twenty-Six: The County Lord

Qi Xing raised his hand and patted her on the shoulder, and solemnly told her: "Xiao Qinghe, don't worry, our plan is going well." ”

...... "Please, don't say it."

Qi Xing: "I'm just here to tell you the good news, you continue to copy the scriptures, I won't bother you-"

After speaking, he threw off his robe and walked away in style.

Pei Qinghe was left alone in the wind.

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

On the bright side, in fact, it is nothing for Xiao Tan to know that she and Master Hong Yitian are very close.

It's nothing more than an extra handle in his hands.

Is there less of her handle in his hand?

Besides, he couldn't understand what she was talking to Qi Xing.

Comforting herself like this, Pei Qinghe's heart relaxed a lot, she turned around slightly and peeked at Xiao Tanji, who couldn't see the change in expression.

She deliberately opened the topic and asked him: "Brother, you say, why does Shen Qiuhuan always target me?" Did I mess with her? ”

Xiao Tan retracted his gaze into the distance, glanced at her coldly, and said, "The county lord has so many secrets, how can Xiao know about it." ”

Pei Qinghe smiled bitterly: "Brother said he laughed." ”

Xiao Tanji ignored her, and Pei Qinghe didn't say anything more.

-

In the afternoon, Shen Qiuhuan still did not come to the attic to copy the scriptures.

When it was almost evening, Xiao Tan finished copying the scriptures and looked like he was leaving.

Pei Qinghe was scared alone, followed him with a dead face, and went to his residence.

In Pei Qinghe's mind, ghosts are very evil.

But the evil is nothing more than Xiao Tan.

-

Unconsciously, when night fell, the palace people held a few lamps in the room, and the warm yellow halo reflected the beautiful and gentle light and shadow.

On the side of the table, the candle flame flickered, lining Pei Qinghe's skin extremely white.

Xiao Tan was reading a book on the side, and she was listlessly copying the last part of the scriptures.

At this moment, her mind was full of all kinds of messy things.

After she fantasized that she would solve the bad things in Jingshi in the future, she went to Nanqi for a visit. and thought that her mother could raise her eyebrows in front of that person, find a man she really liked, and give her a younger brother and sister.

After yawning a few times, Xiao Tanji's gaze left the book and looked at her.

"If the county lord is tired, go back to rest, and copy it again tomorrow."

"Don't," Pei Qinghe refused, "I'll finish copying it right away." ”

Xiao Tanji glanced at her again and didn't say anything more.

After Pei Qinghe finished writing the last word, he exhaled a heavy breath, only to feel that the room was a lot brighter.

She stretched her waist, rubbed her eyes again, and leaned in front of Xiao Tanji with a tired look and asked him, "Brother, can you send me back to Yupeng Palace?" ”

When she got back, she covered herself with a quilt and slept.

She remembered that the man said that ghosts are also principled, and ghosts never frighten people who wear quilts.

The latter looked at her sleepy expression, and after a moment, replied, "No." ”

Pei Qinghe let out an expressionless sound, got up and walked in the direction of his bed, "Then you can sleep on the ground tonight." ”

The words fell, and he crooked on his bed regardless of his image.

She closed her eyes and buried her face in the futon.

Hearing footsteps approaching her, she covered her ears and pretended to be stupid: "I'm asleep, I can't hear, I can't hear anything-"

Let her go back alone to fight Ah Piao?

Laughing to death, it's simply impossible!

Silence, deathly silence in the air.

After a long time, Pei Qinghe heard Xiao Tan and his calm voice: "Please give me a bed quilt." ”

"......" is really sensible.

Pei Qinghe turned over, exposed the other quilt and pillow pressed under him, and gave it to him.

She was so tired today that she fell into a deep sleep not long after, and even forgot to take off the jewelry from her bun.

The night was dark, and some people couldn't sleep.

In the pavilion in the courtyard, Xiao Tanji put on a thin coat, with a straight spine and a jade tree. He stood in the evening breeze, his sharp black eyes like thick ink that could not be dissolved, cold and lonely, and independent.

He seems to be waiting for someone, and he seems to be thinking about something.

At one moment, the wind moved, and a black figure fluttered in front of him.

"Childe."

The voice of the visitor was hoarse and deep, as if he had been attacked by wind and frost.

Xiao Tan and his left hand unconsciously lifted the ring, slowly glanced at the visitor, he spoke, his voice was cold: "Why did you come here at this time?" ”

The person who came replied to him: "Tomorrow, the Liang Mansion will be raided." Within three days, the Wei Wangfu would also fall. ”

Xiao Tanhe fell silent, and for a moment, his eyes swept to the right rear intentionally or unintentionally-

It was his room.

Inside sleeps a man whose temperament has changed dramatically in recent days.

He lowered his eyes and instructed the visitor: "In this case, everything will be done according to the plan and send Pei Zheng out of Beijing." ”

"The villain understands."

-

Early the next morning.

Pei Qinghe opened her eyes in a daze and found that this was not her dormitory, and after being stunned for a moment, she immediately remembered what happened last night.

She occupied Xiao Tanji's bed.

Pei Qinghe turned her head and glanced at it, but she didn't see anyone in the house, and when she was about to get up to look for it, she found some hair accessories placed next to the pillow, and she subconsciously touched her hair.

She doesn't remember taking her jewelry off before going to bed last nightβ€”

Could it be Xiao Tanji?

She got out of bed with her shoes on, and caught a glimpse of a futon on the floor outside the partition, presumably Xiao Tanji slept outside the partition last night.

She went out to find Xiao Tanji and saw others in the pavilion.

Later, I learned from him that Shen Qiuhuan was named the county lord early this morning.

Lord of Pingyuan County.

Pei Qinghe didn't have any special reaction when she found out, because she understood that it was a matter of time.

Compared with Shen Qiuhuan, she was more concerned about Xiao Tan and whether she slept well last night.

"Yesterdayβ€”" She was about to speak.

"Yesterday was Xiao Mou who crossed the distance." He interrupted her with a blank face.

Pei Qinghe was stunned, "No, I was too willful yesterday-"

"Xiao's duty is to protect the county lord, as long as the county lord is willing, you can do whatever you want."

Pei Qinghe didn't know what to say for a while.

She now feels that Xiao Tanji doesn't seem to be as impersonal and paranoid and crazy as she imagined.

At least before he met Gu Beining, he was still a normal person.

-

On the other side, after the holy decree came down, Shen Qiuhuan wore festive clothes and rushed to Fengtian Temple.

Needless to say, it goes without saying who she wore it for, but she didn't find Pei Qinghe.

accidentally bumped into the second prince Pei Tian in the garden.

As soon as the second prince Pei Tian saw her, he happily stepped forward and called her gently: "Huan'er." ”

Shen Qiuwan blushed suddenly.

The palace people waiting on both sides looked at each other, and then retreated with interest,

Pei Tian stepped forward, took Shen Qiuhuan's hands, and said to her with tenderness: "Huan'er, congratulations, you will be the county lord of my father in the future, and no one can bully you at will." ”

"Your Highness rejoices." Shen Qiuwan was very shy.
