036 Straighten your hair
Pei Qing clearly saw that Li Yi's eyes were wide, his half-hidden pupils were completely exposed, his black feather-like eyelashes were upturned, and his eyes were shocked.
She stepped back a little and asked calmly, "Can I take off the face towel?" ”
His mind was still on the pressure of his lips at the touch of a touch, Li Yi's pupils flickered slightly, and he looked at the girl who was close at hand for a long time before he replied in a dumb voice: "Don't ......"
The kiss was like lightning that pierced the night sky, piercing his ribcage through the long river of time.
He couldn't help but hold his left chest, very suspicious that his violently beating heart would burst through his chest and jump into her hands.
Pei Qing stepped back a little and looked at him wordlessly.
As the distance between the two widened, the girl's fragrance that lingered on the tip of Li Yi's nose disappeared, his Adam's apple slowly slidied, and his brain went blank.
"Then forget it." Pei Qing's face was casual, as if the impulse just now was an illusion.
She yawned very calmly, turned over and lay down with her back to Li Yi and fell asleep.
Li Yi stiffened for a long time, until he heard her breathing become soothing and long, and then he realized that Yiren was really asleep.
He exhaled slowly, as if to expel the fullness in his chest.
For Pei Qing, he felt tricky and difficult to solve.
"Are you kidding me?" He questioned her back.
Rightfully for nothing.
Pei Qing was really asleep, and he couldn't hear his words at all.
Li Yi lowered his head and pinched his eyebrows, and put his fingers on his forehead for a long time.
"You can't do this to keep me in the town, right?" He whispered to himself, "For the sake of this feudal town, you really do everything!" ”
Although he thought he had analyzed the truth, Li Yi's boredom did not decrease but increased, especially because he knew very well what kind of person Pei Qing was - she never did meaningless things.
Every word she has ever said and every decision she has made will eventually be implemented and turned into something that is beneficial to her.
- So, what would it do her to kiss him suddenly?
Thinking of this, Li Yi felt a little angry again.
Obviously, since ancient times, this kind of thing has been done by men and women, why does he feel that it is he, a man, who has been taken advantage of?
It's unfair to think about.
He was silent for a moment on Pei Qing's back, then suddenly got up and walked out.
Leaving the warm cabin, the cool mountain air outside is refreshing.
He stood in the doorway for a moment, and soon noticed that there were more green eyes in the grass.
"You beasts are going to scratch the door in the middle of the night?" Li Yi snorted.
He can't deal with Pei Qing, who is exquisite, and he can't deal with a group of wild wolves?
In the next moment, he withdrew a stick from the edge of the hut and walked slowly into the grass.
This was followed by the muffled sound of sticks hitting the flesh, accompanied by the wail of wild wolves, and after a quarter of an hour, the eyes in the grass disappeared, leaving behind the corpses of three wolves.
Li Yi breathed a sigh of relief, came back with a wooden stick and sat down silently in front of the house, and sat all night.
*
Pei Qing woke up in the morning to find that there was only one in the house.
"Avoiding suspicion again?" She muttered, paused for a moment, and sat up.
The fire in the pit was extinguished, but it was not cold in the cramped room.
She wiped her face with a handkerchief dipped in water, took out a small wooden comb and carefully combed her hair, and then went to the door and opened the crack.
What catches the eye is the man's tall and handsome back.
Li Yi held a wooden stick in one hand and put the other on his lap, and when he heard the sound of the door opening, he turned half of his body to take a look.
The corners of Pei Qing's mouth hooked slightly, and she looked at him softly, her peach blossom eyes were sharp, and she saw him from head to toe straightforwardly.
"......" Li Yi turned his head little by little, and the invisible current went all the way down from the top of his head, making him unable to be calm.
"Haven't slept all night?" The girl's clear and tender voice came, half concerned and half curious.
Li Yi snorted, and suddenly stood up straight with his back to her, revealing only three points of his face covered.
"Let's go." He didn't look back, as if he was going to open the way straight ahead.
"Hey," Pei Qing called him generously, "I'm going to eat what you bake - don't rats." ”
After a pause, Li Yi finally turned around completely.
At this time, Pei Qing had already seen the three wolves lying in the grass, and she was startled, remembering the dark shadow she saw before entering the house last night.
"Wolves?" She asked in a whisper.
Li Yi glanced left and right, pulled the grass twice at will, and asked randomly: "Roast wolf meat, do you want to eat it?" ”
Pei Qing replied happily: "Don't eat it." ”
Li Yi: ......
Finding that he was being teased again, his voice couldn't help but be cold: "If you don't eat, come and go." ”
As he spoke, he strode into the grass, waving his long sword to cut the way for Pei Qing.
Pei Qing stared at his back and smiled, and followed with a small sigh.
When the two of them returned to Xixian County, it was almost dark, and as soon as they entered the mansion, Pei Qing was surrounded by Chen Tu, Wang Ergou, Ah Tao, Ah Ji, and Ah Yue, and instantly squeezed Li Yi to the outermost layer.
"Princess, you're back, it's time for the printing workshop to recruit here."
"Niangniang, you have to dig a canal for medicinal herbs......"
"The textbook is finished, and the new textbook has not yet come out......"
"There's something going on here in the wasteland......
They all went into battle with their mouths in unison, all nervous and eager, occupying all of Pei Qing's attention.
When Pei Qing finished solving their problems one by one, he found that Li Yi had left at some point.
She sent someone to invite, but she got a reply of "no such person", and no one could tell where Li Yi lived.
This is quite unusual.
Not to mention the people who signed the deed of sale, even the "original team" of the palace such as Chen Weiwei also obtained welfare housing and had a place among the spacious and bright rooms in the palace.
And among all of them, Li Yi was the only one who missed - didn't this clearly tell her that there was something weird here?
I wasn't interested in it before, and I didn't plan to care about such "unrelated" trivial things.
Now......
Just when Pei Qing was thinking about holding a county-wide mobilization meeting and wanted to call on everyone to find someone for her, Li Yi hurried over.
"The princess looking for me?" He paused from a distance away and asked with a slight detachment.
In the candlelight, Pei Qing admired his low-eyed but panicked look on the surface, and said lazily and softly: "Yes, I just wanted the whole county to find you for me." ”
Li Yi was slightly shocked, and quickly explained: "I belong to the Huang family's station in Xixian County. ”
Pei Qing bowed his head slowly and said casually: "No wonder there is no shadow of you everywhere in the mansion." ”
In the interval between the two "chatting", Ah Xing came to serve them hot noodle soup and browned oil cakes.
Pei Qing didn't mean to greet Li Yi to eat together, so he sat down at the table and took a leisurely sip of soup.
She held the bowl and glanced at him: "You really don't want to eat?" Don't you like my side of the stove the most? ”
Li Yi stood a foot away and didn't make any moves.
She didn't wait for him, she simply ate slowly.
Pei Qing ate another noodle soup with chopsticks, and suddenly chuckled: "Are you so scared that you don't dare to eat because of me?" Interesting. ”
Before she could finish speaking, there was already one more person in the seat opposite.
Li Yi didn't touch the noodle soup, only tore open the oil cake and ate it silently, with a very small amplitude, and almost didn't open the face towel that covered the noodles.
Outside the house, Ah Xing and Chen guards each had a large bowl of noodles in their hands, their ears stretched out like rabbits, but they were not slow to eat in their mouths.
Ah Xing dried up all the food, and finally couldn't help but ask in a low voice, "Why is there no sound in the house?" ”
Guard Chen had better ear power than her, and he could hear that the room should be just a simple meal, so he replied in the same whisper: "It's okay, it's normal." ”
Both of them ate the princess's exclusive secret recipe bone soup noodles, and on a slightly chilly early spring night, such a large bowl of noodles was enough to lift their spirits.
"I feel weird about them today." Ah Xing's voice was lower, and she sounded worried.
Guard Chen hesitated, but finally couldn't control his like-mindedness, and asked in a low voice: "Yes, the two of them walked together for two days and two nights!" ”
In the impression of Chen Weiwei, his "lord" has never been so condescending and has had close contact with a certain woman, and that is dozens of hours!
"Niangniang said that they went to prospect," Ah Xing couldn't help but defend her master, "It's not going out to play." ”
Guard Chen glanced at her with pity, and suddenly said, "Let's eat your noodles." ”
Xing: ???
A-Xing: It's inexplicable!
Just when the two of them finished eating the second bowl of rice, the door of Xiaolou was opened, and Li Yi's tall figure appeared, handing out the empty dishes and chopsticks.
Ah Xing didn't react for a while, but asked the Chen guards to take it first.
Xing: !!
Xing: Sycophant!
Chen Guard didn't have time to care what she thought, and asked Li Yi in an almost imperceptible tone: "Lord, are you okay?"
Li Yi glanced at him casually and hummed in a low voice.
Guard Chen was even more worried.
But he didn't dare to ask any more.
Although the head of his family is approachable most of the time, he is also extremely terrible when he is angry, and whoever provokes him will ask for more blessings!
Li Yi returned to the small building and carefully closed the door, but after closing the door, he regretted it again.
He should have left by taking advantage of the time to deliver the dishes, but now he stayed behind by the ghost, and he didn't know why he suddenly made a mistake.
He stood by the door and hesitated, but Pei Qing didn't look at him over there, he moved to the bookcase and unfolded the pen and paper, and she began to write a letter.
"I feel that Huang Gongzi is a good friend," she said without raising her head, "although the papermaking technology in our domain is not the most advanced now, let's copy a copy to him." ”
Li Yi, who was secretly tense, exhaled silently, he should have been a little more relaxed, but for some reason he was a little unhappy in his heart.
- Does she have nothing else to say except for business?
The girl sitting behind the bookcase pulled her sleeves, revealing a slender wrist of lotus white, and her slender fingers pinched a small regular pen, writing like a fairy enjoying flowers, elegant and leisurely.
Li Yi looked at her a few more times as restrained as possible.
I only heard Pei Qing say again: "In addition to sending papermaking, I also want to buy some more people through Huang Gongzi's caravan. ”
She finished writing as she spoke, took out her private seal and lightly stamped it.
Without waiting for Li Yi to speak, she looked over calmly and found that he was still standing by the door, his deep eyes hidden in the shadows.
Pei Qing unfolded a sly smile slightly, and raised his finger at him: "Come here, I have to rely on you to deliver the letter." ”
Li Yi has always walked very lightly, but now he is also silent, and he barely touches the ground when he walks over.
After the sound of the paper squirming, a brand-new business letter came out, and Pei Qing handed the letter over.
Li Yi thought that he would take it, but when the letter was handed to him, his little finger was lightly hooked.
There was a distinct inhalation in the room.
Pei Qing withdrew his hand, feeling that his face was hot, but his expression was innocent as if he was unconscious.
She felt that Li Yi's gaze on her face seemed to have a hot temperature, and she subconsciously wanted to avoid it.
Pei Qing pushed the case up, moved to the back of the chair, and moved back under Li Yi's tense gaze.
brush, Li Yi picked up the chair with one hand and pushed it back under the table.
Now there is only air left between the two of them.
Pei Qing raised his eyes to look at him, and after seeing his eyes, he was inexplicably a little scared.
She took a step back.
Li Yi took a step forward.
One continued to retreat, and the other steadily stepped forward.
By the time Pei Qing found out that his back had touched the wall, it was already too late.
Her back was cold, she couldn't help but shiver, and under the current height difference, she could only raise her head helplessly and stare at him.
Li Yi lowered his eyes and looked at her, and said in a low and dark voice: "Princess, your hair is messy." ”
With his voice, a slender but scarred hand lifted Pei Qing's hair that fell from his shoulders, and gently straightened it out and brought it back behind his shoulders.
Pei Qing was so nervous that her breathing was messed up, and when her hair was pulled away, she couldn't help but swallow a small breath of air.
Her eyelashes fluttered, and she insisted on looking at him just now, but now she only dared to stop her eyes on his placket.
Both of them were breathing a little heavily.
Probably because she was too nervous, Pei Qing found that her perception of each hair was magnified to the extreme, the subtle touch of the hair being pulled, and the subtle changes of being pulled behind her shoulders were infinitely expanded under her perception.
In the next moment, Li Yi took a step back and slowly stuffed the letter he had just received into his arms, it turned out that he had forgotten to put it away, and he didn't remember it until this moment.
When his fingers opened the placket, Pei Qing's gaze quickly closed as if it had been burned, and she glanced at his eyes quickly.
At this time, Li Yi took another step back, and the space between the two of them suddenly became empty, and the thin air just now became normal.
Pei Qing couldn't help but take a few deep breaths.
"The subordinates will go to do something," only to hear Li Yi say in a guqin-like tone, "The subordinates will retire." ”
With that, he looked at her for two seconds with complicated eyes, then turned and walked out.
Pei Qing: ......
She looked at the man's back, her mouth tensed a little, and displeasure drowned her like a tide.
What's going on with him? Is it revenge? Or do you just want to tidy it up for her?
