Chapter 7: There are assassins, protect the master!
Pei Zheng stared thoughtfully at the figure in front of him, his eyes condensed on the slightly trembling fingertips under her other hand, and she couldn't see that she was always good at acting.
The guards were really frightened by her appearance, and when they looked up, they found that Lord Zuo Xiang's face was not good.
Isn't it......
The guards were suspicious, but forgot to take their eyes off the two. A moment later, a chill swept through his body, and a cold snort came from his ears.
The ghost sent the gods, Pei Zheng took the delicate girl into his arms with his long arms, "Don't get out yet!" ”
If everyone was frightened by Jiang Mingzhi's words before, it was too late to get up at this moment, and they rushed out of the study with a roll, for fear that if they left late, they would displease Zuo Xiang and lose their heads.
Between breaths, only the two of them were left in the study.
Jiang Mingzhi was suddenly pulled into that warm embrace, his body stiffened for two seconds, but he reacted quickly, the jade hand passed through his waist, and the posture of the two was even more ambiguous.
Bang bang, it's the sound of his heartbeat.
It was clear that the two of them were so intimate, and Jiang Mingzhi listened to his heartbeat, but it was not messy. Could it be that he is really not interested in himself?
Pei Zheng stared at the person in his arms, and naturally noticed her small movements.
Jiang Mingzhi raised his head at this moment and suddenly crashed into Pei Zheng's eyes.
A pair of apricot eyes with doubts, Bei Yan bit her lower lip lightly, this ignorant look made her return to a bit of everyone's beautiful appearance. Of course, if you ignore this outfit and the gesture she is throwing into her arms at the moment.
Neither of them looked away, but they heard footsteps hurrying in.
Jiang Mingzhi was stunned for a moment, and hugged her hands tighter, as if she was afraid that Pei Zheng would leave her alone.
With a squeak, the door opened, and Jiang Mingzhi didn't even have time to give someone a look.
"Lord Zuo Xiang."
Jiang Mingzhi furrowed her brows slightly, she could smell the smell of alcohol all over her body, but these four words were shouted out by him very clearly.
And this voice, the more she listens to it, the more familiar it becomes, and when she looks sideways, she is instantly stunned in place.
Through the moonlight, she saw that the person who came was actually the Marquis of Dingguo!
It is not uncommon for Dingguohou to appear here, but Dingguohou is obviously full of alcohol, but he came to the study to look for Pei Zheng with a sober face, which is not right.
Carefully retracting her gaze, Jiang Mingzhi felt that she seemed to have accidentally broken Pei Zheng's secret.
The two of them must have something to discuss here today, but they didn't want to be bumped into by her, so Pei Zheng didn't know if he would kill her.
Pei Zheng stared at the emotional changes on the cheeks of the woman in his arms after seeing the person who came, but it was rare to raise the corners of his mouth, and now he knew that he was afraid? It's late!
Pei Zheng just hugged her and appeared in front of Dingguohou.
After hearing the movement, the Marquis of Dingguo immediately leaned over and prepared to salute, but when his eyes fell on Pei Zheng, he couldn't help but widen his eyes.
What did he see? Pei Zheng was holding a woman in his arms?!
After the Marquis of Ding came back to his senses, he immediately lowered the strangeness in his eyes, and arched his hand at Pei Zheng as usual.
"The next official is late, and I hope that Lord Zuo will forgive me." A respectful salute, and never got up for a long time.
If Jiang Mingzhi was just guessing before, then at this moment she is 100% sure that the two of them are here today.
The moment she saw Pei Zheng, she subconsciously thought that he was looking for herself.
Now that I think about it, she was self-inflicted.
It took a long time for the Marquis of Dingguo to hear a faint hum from the top of his head, and then he got up, but his eyes involuntarily fell on the person in his arms.
Jiang Mingzhi naturally noticed the gaze of Dingguohou, and suddenly her body stiffened, and the next second she simply wanted to bury her face in Pei Zheng's arms, but thinking of this person's temper, she had to be aggrieved and resigned.
No, as soon as Dingguohou's gaze fell on her, Pei Zheng moved.
His hand moved up from his waist and rested on Jiang Mingzhi's shoulder, which happened to block half of her cheek. Jiang Mingzhi's eyes were full of surprise, and then there was a touch of relief.
The long and narrow crow feathers trembled, like feathers scratching Pei Zheng's palm, making him look stunned.
Dingguo Hou noticed Pei Zheng's movements and became more and more curious about the woman's identity.
Without Dingguohou continuing to read, Pei Zheng's fingertips moved slightly, and a secret letter appeared on the table.
"This matter, don't make a noise."
When the words fell, Pei Zheng took Jiang Mingzhi and turned around and left.
"Congratulations to the Prime Minister Zuo."
Seeing this, the Marquis of Dingguo suppressed the surprise in his eyes and bowed down.
Out of the study, Pei Zheng walked quickly towards the outside of the Dingguo Marquis's Mansion, Jiang Mingzhi wanted to speak several times, but he didn't find a chance.
Outside the gate of the mansion, a carriage was waiting quietly, and after Pei Zheng's long legs stepped up, he slowly walked forward.
Returning to the carriage, Pei Zheng's unhappy eyes fell on Jiang Mingzhi, and a cold voice came from above his head.
"Don't let go yet!"
Jiang Mingzhi did not let go, but raised the corners of his mouth slightly, and a pair of bright eyes looked straight in front of him.
"The prince will throw it away when he runs out, it's too affectionate."
Listening to her slightly coquettish words, Pei Zheng was indifferent, with a bit of ridicule in his eyes.
"If you want to die, you can go to the Dingguo Marquis's Mansion next time."
Jiang Mingzhi was about to get used to his attitude, so he didn't take it to heart, but stretched out his finger to draw circles on his chest.
"Your Excellency bothered to take me out of the Dingguo Marquis's Mansion, you probably don't want me to die there, right?"
Jiang Mingzhi could clearly feel Pei Zheng's breathing rise and fall, a little smile welled up in his eyes, and the temperature in the carriage seemed to rise a little in an instant.
The crispy numbness on his chest seemed to spread throughout his body, making Pei Zheng feel a little strange again.
Just as he couldn't help but want to speak, he felt a sudden shock from the carriage.
"There are assassins! Protect the master! ”
Chopper exclaimed, and with a pull on the reins, he stabilized the carriage.
Jiang Mingzhi didn't know what the situation was, but she also heard the sound of breaking the air outside the carriage, which made her frown.
The carriage curtain was not opened, and she couldn't see the situation outside, so she could only prick up her ears and listen carefully to the movement outside, but she could only hear the sound of swords meeting each other.
These assassins should have come for Pei Zheng.
Jiang Mingzhi's gaze subconsciously fell on the opposite side, the man's narrow eyes narrowed slightly, and the whole person was like a beast ready to attack, which finally gave Jiang Mingzhi a sense of security.
Who knew that she had just breathed a sigh of relief, when she saw Pei Zheng waving at her with his open hand, and she didn't feel that her breath was tight.
In the next second, the two fell together on the carriage.
In the position where Jiang Mingzhi was sitting, there was an arrow feather inserted, and his tail was still trembling slightly, which was terrifying.
If Pei Zheng is slower, or if she is half a beat slower, then I am afraid that her life will be difficult to protect at this moment.
"Thank you ......"
Before the words fell, Pei Zheng had already opened his hands and hugged her into his arms, and then saw the opportunity and jumped out of the carriage.
