The first glow after the rain.

Pei Mingshi is going back to the palace.

She looked back at Ah Candle, who was walking behind her, like a little tail, and a smile flashed in her eyes.

"You want to come with me to the palace?"

Ah Candle heard the meaning of teasing, and couldn't help blushing, but her eyes were bright and bright, and she didn't hide her closeness at all.

"I want to send the princess." Then he asked, "Okay?" ”

"Okay." Pei Mingshi smiled and motioned for her to come to the side.

Ah Candle subconsciously hugged Pei Mingshi's beckoning arm, rubbed it habitually, and squinted happily, just like a little milk cat coquettish.

The people who served Princess Mingshi opened their eyes wide: "......"

Pei Mingshi was surprised for a moment, and felt that there was nothing wrong with this in his heart, so he had to swallow back the words that came to his mouth.

Pei Mingshi didn't say anything, and rubbed her ear.

Ah Candle was coquettish enough, and when he came back to his senses, he realized what he had done.

Ah Candle raised his head to meet Pei Mingshi's gaze, let go of his hand, smiled, and changed the topic: "Princess, do you want to follow you to the palace?" ”

Pei Mingshi asked, "Do you want to go?" ”

Candle shook her head.

Qi Niang's temperament can't change overnight, although she doesn't think there's anything wrong, but for Mrs. Song, they still hope that Song Zhizhi can be more cheerful and bold.

Ah Candle wants to be the princess's companion with Song Zhizhi, but she doesn't want to see Song Zhizhi suffer because of this.

Pei Mingshi smiled and said, "It's in the Song family, don't go to the palace." ”

It wasn't a good place to go, and everyone had to rush to get in.

"Go talk to Qi Niang." Pei Mingshi touched Ah Candle's head, "If she really doesn't want to, I won't force it." ”

Ah Candle nodded vigorously and smiled silly.

"Thank you, princess."

Speaking of thanks, Pei Mingshi muttered: "Ah Candle, the county lord of Ancheng grew up under the knees of the Queen Mother since she was a child, unlike others, even if it is for the sake of the face of the clan, Your Majesty will not deal with her because of this kind of family matter." ”

Ah Candle understands that she has long discovered the shortcomings of this dynasty. The courtesy is not inferior to the concubine, and the punishment is not inferior to the doctor. The matter of the Ruyi county lord poisoning people is even more vividly interpreted by the latter.

The high-ranking elites, the common people of the poor families, have a strict and cold-blooded class division.

Pei Mingshi said slowly: "The identity of the clan may not be able to protect the county lord of Ancheng for a lifetime, but her current husband's family is not the Xue family. The ancestor of the emperor made a fortune, contributed money to Taizu, and made friends with many scholars, and he also had a place among the magnates of the Gaomen over the years. The husband of the county lord of Ancheng, the second son of the Xue family, really wants to talk about it, he and the county lord of Ancheng are still cousins. ”

"You haven't seen Xue Erlang in the county lord's mansion these days?"

Ah Candle nodded, it should be said that she didn't even know which family Ancheng County Lord married to secondly.

Pei Mingshi pulled out a smile and said: "Many scholars have received the favor of the Xue family, although Xue Erlang is not the son of the sect to inherit the family business, and there is no young son who can speak skillfully, but he is quite famous among scholars. Therefore, as long as the county lord of Ancheng did not commit a heinous crime, there was still room for redemption. ”

"What about the Ruyi County Lord?"

"She's not going to end up doing anything good." A cold light faintly appeared in Pei Mingshi's narrow Danfeng eyes, and he said, "The county lord of Ancheng has always been good at dancing with long sleeves, and he has dealings with the ladies of various families. She thinks she is a virtuous helper, and she has to be top-notch in everything, and even her daughter has to be trained to be comparable to a princess, in a vain attempt to marry the Jiujiang Xi family. ”

"It's a pity that after this incident, the Jiujiang Xi clan did not turn against her, it was already for the sake of the Xue family's face. Don't even try to get married. ”

Pei Mingshi said that it was a pity, but his words were full of irony.

The county lord of Ancheng worked hard for himself and his daughter's reputation for many years, but who expected it to fall apart. I don't know if she will blame the county lord of Ruyi for ruining her hard work at this moment.

Their mother and daughter may not have anything to do, but it will be difficult for the county lord of Ruyi to marry a good family again.

Ah Candle pursed her lips and said, "I won't let her go." ”

It is to let go, not to forgive.

What Ah Candle wants is not just the ruin of the reputation of the county lord of Ruyi.

A life is worth a life.

She wants Ancheng County Lord, mother and daughter, who are ruined and discredited, have nothing, and are spurned by thousands of people, and take their lives to resist.

In order to repay Qin Candle's innocent death.

After speaking, Ah Candle looked at Pei Mingshi.

Although she was extremely honest in front of Pei Mingshi, she was still a little worried in her heart.

Ah Candle knows that her true nature is not the pure and innocent that others think, and she never cares what anyone except her relatives think of her.

She was just afraid that Pei Mingshi would be disappointed in her.

"Of course you can't let her go."

Pei Mingshi's face remained unchanged, and he said coldly: "She has hurt you several times, even if she pays for one life, it is not enough to offset it." ”

Ah Candle stared at her blankly.

He was about to walk to the gate of the Song family.

Pei Mingshi slowed down his tone and said, "Ah Candle, you can live in the Song family with peace of mind, don't worry, I will definitely give you an explanation." ”

"Nope."

Ah Candle finally came back to his senses, his eyes were firm, and he said, "I want to come by myself." ”

She worked so hard to come to Pei Mingshi's side, not to cling to her.

She could lean on Pei Mingshi's side to take a good breath and think about what to do next, but she would never count on Pei Mingshi's head for everything.

She was already tired.

She couldn't afford to trouble her anymore.

Ah Candle put Pei Mingshi in the carriage and looked at it for a while before walking back slowly.

She sometimes frowned and thought hard about how to deal with the county lord of Ancheng, and sometimes touched her face and smirked and sighed that Princess Mingshi was so good, and she was immersed in her own world, and she didn't notice that anyone was looking at her all the time.

Just when Ah Candle's mind swept over the four words of Bingzhou Xue's family, a figure suddenly appeared in front of him.

Xi Lan stood not far away, looking at her coldly.

Ah Candle frowned, who did he show with a stinky face!

snorted coldly, didn't look at him, turned his head and was about to leave.

Xi Lan quickly stepped forward and grabbed her arm, held back his anger, and said, "What are you running, your heart is empty, right?" ”

Ah Candle's anger has also come up, and she hasn't settled accounts with him yet!

"What is my heart empty? You said! ”

Xi Lan always remembered the envious eyes when she looked at Pei Ming, and her heart was like fire.

He still couldn't understand why she couldn't help but get close to Pei Mingshi, even though he met Ah Candle first, not like a dream?

First come, first come, at least he did more than Pei Mingshi.

How could she be so unfair!

Xi Lan was full of resentment, but when it came to his mouth, he could only say one sentence: "You lied to me!" The tactics you mentioned are useless, and you don't really want to help me at all! ”

Ah Candle heard the imperceptible grievance in his tone, and thought, there is still a grievance in his face?

She sneered and said, "I haven't settled accounts with you yet, but you sent it to the door yourself." ”

Xi Lan: "??? ”

He's never done anything to be sorry for her!
