The question was asked very suddenly, but the distress that flashed in those sincere eyes Pei Muyao did not miss it, he probably knew that she remembered herself in her memory, stepped forward and pinched her cheeks, and said truthfully: "No." ”

"Why?" Song Xu asked bluntly, paused, and added: "I want to hear the truth." ”

I want to know what he was thinking about in his previous life for so many years.

The delicate and dazzling eyes are just like the deer eyes under the fireworks in the sky all the year round, with a little expectation, but a little sad, Pei Muyao stared at her for a while, and said: "A small step wrong is an endless abyss, why involve people, even if it is you, if he is not in a hurry, I will not pull you into this place full of danger." ”

He can only be careful again and again, not only to succeed, but also to be able to protect her.

Song Suqing heard the meaning of his words, and his complicated thoughts were about to overflow in his heart, and the hand hanging down to his side trembled unconsciously.

After a long time, she stretched out her hand and leaned over slightly, hooking his little finger and shaking it for a while, her eyes looked straight at him, and said: "When I took this step towards you, I knew that there were many difficulties ahead, but as I told you, if I didn't take this step towards you, what awaited me was an abyss." ”

"Pei Muyao, I was also selfish when I chose you." Song Xu cleared his throat and itched slightly, marrying him was his own choice rather than being forced by him, "This is the common choice of the two of us, with me and you, since I have made this choice, I will not regret it." ”

It's like she never regretted it until the end of her previous life.

Because Song Suqing knew very well that Pei Yichen was coming to the Hou Mansion, in her previous life, she did not open her eyes and did not know that what was waiting for her was death, but she knew very well that if she resisted the decree and refused to marry at that time, the death date of the Hou Mansion would be advanced.

As the eldest daughter of the Xuanwu Marquis, she had no choice.

So choosing to marry Pei Muyao, Song Suqing will not regret it, and she will not regret it if she is happy with him.

As for what will happen in the future, she doesn't know, but she has done everything she can, even if the ending is not satisfactory, she admits it.

The little finger hooking his knuckles slid like a small snake, Pei Muyao lowered his eyes, raised his knuckles and pulled the twisted little finger, and wrapped her hand into the palm with a backhand clasp, a smile flashed in his eyes, "Don't worry, I won't give you a chance to regret it." ”

A smile slipped through her clear and sincere eyes, and Song Suqing's heart jumped slightly, and she smiled and bowed her head.

Hearing the sound of birds crying outside the window, Song Suqing glanced sideways at the window lattice, the crescent moon hanging on the high place had moved down, Ning Ji and the others were also waiting in the courtyard, she shook her fingers, "Go, I'm waiting for your news here." ”

"Hmm." Pei Muyao's voice responded in a deep voice, but he didn't move a step for a long time, he lowered his eyes and stared at her face carefully by the moonlight, as if he wanted to engrave her in his heart, unwilling to leave.

In an instant, Song Suqing stood on tiptoe and landed a gentle kiss on his lips.

The feather fanning was a little heavier than her movements, but it also made Pei Muyao's eyes darken a little.

A trace of affection flashed in his eyes full of affection. Desire, the slender and powerful long arms wrapped around her waist, forcing Song Xuqing to stagger a few steps against his toes.

Obviously nothing happened, but Song Suqing faintly felt a little nervous, so tight that her palm involuntarily grabbed the material on his waist, opened her eyes wide and let him patrol unscrupulously, her heartbeat was like a drum.

In the chaos, Song Suqing didn't know how much time had passed, it could be a moment, it could be a cup of tea, she had no sense of time at all, she cleared her throat, and when the corners of her mouth opened slightly, her lips were suddenly bitten, and she carefully swept her mouth without landing an inch.

Pei Muyao's hand on her waist tightened, lifted it up slightly, swallowed all her exclamations into her throat, and her hot throat rolled up and down. Take the temperature that belongs to her.

Song Suqing stepped on his instep, the palm of his hand pulling his clothes slowly clenched, and was forced to raise his head to accept his blazing temperature, not knowing what heaven and earth were.

At the moment when he was about to lose his breath, the intersecting lips were slightly opened, and the fresh air broke in, and Song Suqing lowered his eyes and breathed rapidly.

Looking at her crystal clear lips, Pei Muyao closed his eyes slightly and took a deep breath, and his voice was deep and hoarse: "I'm leaving." ”

Song Xuqing's chest staggered for a moment because of the surging breath, and looked at him quietly, 'um'.

But he said that, but he didn't actually step away.

It wasn't until someone knocked on the closed door from the outside that Song Suqing came back to his senses and pushed his arm, "Let's go." ”

"I'll take you back to your room." Pei Muyao said.

Song Suqing shook his head, "I want to watch you leave." ”

Silent for a moment, Pei Muyao bowed his head, pushed open the closed door, and a group of people stood in the quiet courtyard.

Song Suqing lowered his eyes and looked at Pei Muyao, who was standing at the forefront, waved his hand the moment he turned to get on the horse, and said, "Don't get hurt, don't put yourself in danger, I'm waiting for you here." ”

Pei Muyao, who jumped on the horse, said 'um' and rode away with his horse whipped.

Song Suqing stood at the gate of the courtyard for a long time, and she didn't come back to her senses until the sound of Qin Ting's steps pulled back the thoughts that drifted away.

When he turned around and went back to the house, he turned his head to look at the road where no one was visible, staring at the heavy mahogany door panel, Song Suqing said to Qin Ting: "There is no need to close the door to thank guests, don't act deliberately in normal life, attract attention." ”

Qin Ting bowed her head and motioned for the guards who were guarding the door and dressed as a small servant to close the door.

Song Suqing returned to the room, looking at the empty bedroom, her eyes were a little lonely, but it was only for a moment, "Take pen, ink, paper, and inkstone." ”

Qin Ting, who was laying the bed, was stunned, got up and went to the bedroom to get pen, ink, paper and inkstone, and took two candles and put them on both sides of the long case, spread out the rice paper and hung her head to grind.

Song Xuqing's eyes fell on the rice paper like the color of the sunset, and he took the brush and dipped it in some ink.

The extremely thin wolf is scattered on the rice paper, and the words are neat and delicate.

The leak in the corner of the long case passed bit by bit, and when it was about to enter the next hour, the wolf that swayed freely gradually stopped.

Song Suqing dropped the brush and gently turned his wrist, read carefully from beginning to end for a while before folding the rice paper neatly and putting it into the envelope, took the paste and pasted the envelope, and painted red plums with rouge on the place where the envelope was pasted, and handed it to Qin Ting, "Order someone to secretly send the letter to my father in Beijing and hand it over to him personally." ”

After a pause, she pulled off the sachet hanging from her waist, "There is half a jade pendant in the sachet, you give the sachet to Yang Ye, he will lead you to see my father, the journey must be fast, be sure to deliver it to my father before the cargo ship docks." ”

Qin Ting arched her hand, pinched the envelope and sachet and walked out of the bedroom.

Looking at her departing figure, Song Suqing breathed a sigh of relief, pulled back a chair and sat down slowly, pinching her tired eyebrows.

I hope that after my father sees her letter, he can immediately deal with the relationship between the Hou Mansion and Song Huai'an, otherwise there will be things entangled in the future.

Qin Ting returned to the bedroom again, saw Song Suqing leaning on the back of the chair with her eyes closed, slowed down her pace, gently shook her arm hanging on the chair handle, and called, "Princess." ”

Song Suqing did not fall into a deep sleep, after hearing the voice, he raised his eyes slightly, and his voice was deep 'um', got up and went back to the couch to lie down, and fell asleep.

For seven days, no one in the courtyard went out except as necessary.

But since the day the cargo ship docked to today, two full days have passed, Song Suqing sat in the pavilion with a book, and Qin Ting shook the fan to bring a cool breeze, but her heart could not be calm.

This book has been stuck on this page for an hour, Song Suqing sighed in her heart, and out of the corner of her eye, she saw the figure of Xianwen coming, she stood up suddenly, twisted her eyebrows and asked, "Is there any news?" ”

Xianwen shook her head, knowing the restlessness in her heart, she looked at Qin Ting and said, "Princess, relax your heart, although the master didn't take many people out this time, you still sent people out, if there is really something, they will protect the master." ”

After Song Su came to his senses that day, he obviously noticed that there seemed to be a little more people in the courtyard, and after questioning, he learned that except for Ning Ji and the other three, the rest of the people escorted Pei Muyao into Shanzhou City and came back, and they all stayed by her side to guard.

Without much thought, Song Suqing hurriedly sent some people to secretly follow them.

Da Wen stretched out his hands and handed out a letter and a familiar sachet, "Princess, Jingzhong's reply." ”

Song Suqing's eyebrows raised slightly when he heard this, staring at the envelope, he raised his eyes to look at Xian Wen for a moment, saw him nodded, opened the tightly sealed envelope, and read the words on it at a glance.

When she saw that the escort guards were in the mountain behind Zhuangzi at the moment, and had sent a letter to them for calling, her well-defined eyelashes trembled, and a sour meaning surged from her heart, and her eyes began to glow with warm water.

In Song Yi's letter, it was stated that Pei Muyao had written to mention Song Huai'an before, and he had already made a plan, so she didn't have to worry, but she was alone with wild wolves outside, so she must take care of herself.

After reading the letter, Song Suqing exhaled, his eyes flashed, and he was silent for a long time.

Xianwen and Qin Ting glanced at each other, stepped back silently, and stopped in unison when they heard the princess stop them.

Song Suqing asked Xianwen to fetch the candle, and then took one last look at the words on the letter, and slowly lit the origami, and in an instant, the clean and neat rice paper turned into ashes.

She cleaned her hands, "Have there been strangers in the nearby villages recently?" ”

"Not really." Qin Ting replied and handed her a handkerchief, "We have been here for some time, and we are quite familiar with the villagers, if there is a stranger in the village far away, the village will also be vigilant, and the warm-hearted will run to tell each other." ”

Song Suqing wiped the water droplets on his hands, put the handkerchief on the edge of the copper basin, and glanced at the wide open door not far away, "The cargo ship has been docked for two whole days." ”

Qin Ting picked up the copper basin and handed it to the guards guarding outside the pavilion, and said, "The princess still remembers that the prince was stabbed in the port of Shanzhou. ”

"Nature." Song Suqing looked back and naturally remembered.

It was the arrow shot by Pei Muyao who ordered Qi'an, how could she not remember.

Thinking of this, Song Suqing's slightly dignified expression was stunned for a moment, and a thought quickly flashed in his mind, his eyes narrowed slightly at Qin Ting, and then he heard her smile and speak.

"According to the villagers who went out to buy two days ago, on the day the cargo ship docked, there were nearly 50 more guards patrolling the government wharf than on normal days."

Song Suqing glanced at her thoughtfully when she heard this, understood the meaning of these words, and chuckled, "It must be that His Royal Highness King Rui was stabbed in the port for no reason, which attracted the attention of the higher-ups, and additional manpower was dispatched." ”

Qin Ting nodded and continued: "So this trip, if the other party wants to operate and send it away in front of everyone, I'm afraid it will take a lot of effort." ”

Song Suqing knew that what Qin Ting said was not wrong, but he didn't know if Song Huai'an would give up this operation in order to protect himself under the heavy guard, but what Song Huai'an said didn't count, what really counted was the order from above.

"Then just wait." Song Suqing sat down, looked at the book spread out on the table, and closed it, "Wait for the day they can't wait." ”

When the words fell, the three of them suddenly heard the sound of horses' hooves coming from outside the courtyard, and immediately looked at the door, and the guards who were busy cleaning also put down the cleaning tools in their hands, picked up the blade placed in the grass, and stared at the gate with bated breath.

In the next moment, a figure covered in blood appeared in front of everyone.

Qin Ting breathed a sigh of relief and said, "It's sent to pray for Brother An's ......."

As she spoke, she slowly stopped, her eyes wide as she looked at the secret guard who was being helped in by the guards.

After the person came in, he rushed towards Song Suqing, knelt down, and said in a hoarse voice: "Princess." ”

Song Suqing gave up his position, ordered Xianwen to help him sit down, and ordered the others to close the door immediately.

Qin Ting poured a glass of water and handed it to the guard.

The guard quickly drank a cup of tea to moisten his throat, wiped the water stains at the corners of his mouth with his sleeve at will, and said with his head: "Princess, Zechuan is seriously injured, and Qi An and Mingyue are missing." ”

"What!" Song Xu stood up clearly, and inadvertently knocked over the teapot with a wave of her hand, and the teapot filled with tea overflowed and poured on the table in an instant, smashing on the ground with a tick, and the splashed water droplets stained the gauze skirt, she couldn't care so much, "What's the matter!?" ”

"When the subordinates secretly arrived, they happened to meet them and were about to leave the glaze village, so we followed them south, on the way south, you and the prince did not come forward for a long time to attract the attention of the other party, after a few days of quiet, they surprised our carriage with their own adventures, and found that the people in the carriage were not you and the prince, and immediately killed them, and the people who came were all deadpools."

"We were entangled for a moment and then evacuated to the deep mountains, but the other party was Deadpool all the way, and the secret guard who wanted to catch the live mouth all the way, our soldiers evacuated in two ways, and I had a few other people and Zechuan guards all the way, after we escaped, we immediately detoured to the other side to find Qi'an and Mingyue and others, and saw a lot of bloodstains along the way, but we couldn't find anyone."

"We even went down the mountain to look for it, whether it was a cave or any place where people could rest, there was no sign of the five of them, and the other party had already searched the mountain again, so we had to leave."

Song Suqing grasped the table tightly with his palm, and his voice trembled slightly: "Send someone out to continue looking." After a pause, "How is Sawakawa's injury, and where is it now?" ”

"Zechuan is now sober, but he is seriously injured and cannot travel long distances, so we found an uninhabited and dilapidated village, but the situation is urgent, and my subordinates rushed back to report in advance."

Hearing that Zechuan had regained her senses, Song Suqing's tense heartstrings relaxed slightly, and she picked up the teacup and prepared to take a sip of tea, the moment her lips touched the rim of the cup, she looked stunned, and suddenly dropped the teacup, "When did you meet them?" ”

The dark guard was stunned and thought about it carefully, "Three days ago. Saying that, he kowtowed heavily, "The subordinates are not doing things well, but it is up to the princess to condemn the crime." ”

Song Suqing pinched the hand holding the teacup and paused, dumbfounded, bent over and helped him up, "It's hard work, come and take him down to rest." ”

Looking at the back of the dark guard staggering away, she leaned back in the chair with a tight expression, pinched her eyebrow bone and called out to Xianwen.

Xianwen's expression was also very bad, and he arched his hand: "Princess." ”

Song Suqing handed out the sachet that he had returned again, glanced at the location of the back mountain, and said: "Send someone to the back mountain to find the Hou Mansion guards lurking above, give them my sachet, and order them to send five people to search south with our people." There was a pause, his teeth chattering, "I want to see the people who are bouncing around." ”

Xianwen looked at the sachet in the princess's hand hesitantly, knowing that this should be the guard sent by the Hou Mansion to protect her, she pursed her lips and said nothing.

The sachet spread out in the palm of his hand has not been taken away for a long time, Song Xuqing's eyes at the door were slightly withdrawn, and he passed over Xianwen's hesitant expression, and his expression was a little colder, "You don't listen to my orders?" ”

"The subordinates don't dare." Hyeonwen immediately knelt down and took the sachet she had thrown.

Song Suqing's fingertips on the table unconsciously tapped, the speed was fast, enough to see the anxiety in her heart, she pondered for a moment, and said to Qin Ting and Xianwen: "Pack up enough dry food and necessary trauma medicine for us to cope with for three days, he came back in a hurry, I don't know if there are pursuers behind him, it is not appropriate to stay here for a long time." ”

Qin Ting and Da Wen glanced at each other, their expressions became more and more solemn, and they arched their hands: "Yes!" ”
