"Didn't you see, those people heard the county lord say that the restaurant was going to change to the grizzled appearance of the female schooler! Ha ha! It's so much fun! There is a lot of fun around this Ping'an county lord! ”

"Ahem." He coughed a few times and asked, "Send someone to check on those troublemakers." ”

Ji Lan understood as soon as he heard it, and smiled, "You are too careful." But, I see, the lord of Ping'an is not a master who will suffer easily. You can't guess who she's hired to be her bodyguard! ”

Bodyguard?

Pei Luoyi looked at Ji Lan's excited expression, and her mind flashed the figure of her going against the flow of people from a dangerous day on the day of the lotus appreciation banquet.

"Chu Yuan?"

“…… You can guess that?! Ji Lan's eyes widened, and he leaned over to look at him again, "Isn't it true that you have cultivated mana, can you not know the prophet?!" ”

Pei Luoyi ignored him, but his eyebrows frowned slightly.

- It turns out that her situation that day was not just to save the Chu family, but to envelop the Chu family behind her?

Although Chu Yuan is like a child, he is Chu Wei's treasure in the palm of his hand, and he can hold Chu Wei's lifeblood just by pinching him.

Therefore, during the lotus feast, Shen Moling designed Chu Yuan, wanting to use it to hold Chu Wei hostage.

But such a secret, without a large number of secret guard investigations, few people know, where did the little girl come from?

Jade Zhenguan, lotus feast, Chu family......

"Ahem." Peloyi coughed again.

A delicate brocade box suddenly appeared in my sight.

He raised his eyes in confusion, and saw Ji Lan standing back, and said with a smile: "The county lord of Ping'an said thank you for protecting her from being slandered by her brother some time ago, and asked me to bring you a thank you gift." ”

Pei Luo was silent, and after a moment, asked, "What did she say?" ”

Ji Lan thought about it, learned Su Nianxi's tone, pinched his throat and said sharply: "Thanks to the help of that adult last time, I was not framed and slandered. I always want to repay a few points, and I don't want to never see him. ”

Never got to see it?

Pei Luoyi's gaze fell on the small copper lock, and then looked at Ji Lan, who was standing at the end of the bed pinching the orchid finger frivolously, and raised his hand.

“…… Well? Do what? ”

Pei Luoyi glanced at the copper lock again.

"Oh yes!"

Ji Lan immediately poured out the key from his purse, handed it over, and said, "I almost forgot, this key is for you." Don't worry, I haven't opened it! ”

As he spoke, he still stretched out his head, not wanting to, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince took the key, but did not open it, but just held the box like this, and asked, "Ping An has never doubted it?" ”

"Suspicious?" Ji Lan thought for a while and shook his head, "She thought you were an official of Dali Temple, and when she heard that you were sick, she only asked me to hand over this thing to you, and didn't say anything else, so she shouldn't have any suspicions." ”

“……”

Pei Luoyi never doubted Ji Lan's intelligence, after all, he was the champion of the dynasty, but why sometimes, his brain seemed to be blinded by something?

After a pause, he asked, "She didn't wonder why you appeared?" ”

"Oh! This one! Ji Lan smiled: "What is the doubt about this? Anyway, I always like to watch the excitement in the streets and alleys of the capital, and the county lord also knows it. ”

"......" Pei Luoyi glanced at him deeply, and after a while, he turned his face calmly, leaned back, and said lightly: "Since it's okay, you can go down." ”

didn't want to, but Ji Lan stood at the end of the bed and didn't move.

He looked again.

Ji Lan pinched his chin and pondered: "It's a good reason for this female school to be established, I also have to find something to send over, maybe I can see the county lord a few more times......"

Before he finished speaking, he saw Pei Luoyi's eyes as cold as snow.

“……”

The corners of his mouth twitched, and he intervened, "The minister won't disturb His Highness's rest, it just so happens that the county lord gave the minister a jar of good wine, so I have to hurry up and taste it before the master finds out." Retire! ”

After saluting, he turned and ran.

When he brought the door, the earnest smile on his face faded, and he looked into the door, and the corners of his mouth slowly raised, and a playful smile floated.

- These two people are really interesting.

Turning around, he walked out in a wandering manner.

Inside the door.

Pei Luoyi lowered his eyes and looked at the brocade box in his palm.

She knew that she was seriously ill, so she sent this box through Ji Lan's hand.

What will it be?

Raise your hand and insert the key into the copper lock.

"Click."

The brass lock is removed.

Slender fingers pinch the cleat and open it slowly.

Eyes down.

looked into the box, but ...... Nothing.

His Royal Highness the Prince, who was cold and dignified, was stunned for a rare moment, and then quietly looked at the empty box, for a long time, stretched out his hand, and pressed it gently.

There are no dark grids.

There are no peculiarities either.

He looked at the box, and suddenly he thought of something, and closed the box again.

On the surface of the brocade box, the embroidery is ...... Night lotus.

Night lotus.

That night, the night lilies swayed, and the pond was full of water.

So, the meaning of this box is -

Come to see me?

His eyelashes lifted slightly, and the hand holding the brocade box tightened for a moment, just about to lift the thin quilt on his body.

"Ahem."

"Haven't you taken today's medicine yet?"

The door was pushed open, and the graceful and luxurious woman walked in, and when she saw Pei Luoyi who was about to get up on the bed, she frowned slightly, "If you don't lie down well, what are you going to do?" ”

Pei Luoyi took the opportunity to put the brocade box on the inside of the pillow and got up, "A-Niang." ”

Outside the temple.

Qingying pinched the scroll and walked back, and saw a group of people standing in the courtyard, immediately shrank back, looked left and right, pulled the palace people passing by, and asked, "The queen is here?" ”

"Well, I just arrived."

Qingying frowned, looked at the scroll in his hand, turned around, and went to find Xuanying.

……

"Poof."

In the Guogong Mansion, the East Garden, and the lotus pond, the swimming koi jumped out of the water and fell back.

In the water pavilion in the nine-song corridor, there is a bright light greenhouse.

Su Nianxi lazily lay on the small table on the couch, fiddling with the jade-colored dice in front of him, and a noble cloisonné enamel box was placed next to the dice bowl.

Bi Tao walked in, put down the supper, and said in a low voice: "County Lord, there is no one in the Spring Rain Pavilion." ”

"Huh?"

Su Nianxi raised her eyes, "When did you leave?" ”

Bi Tao shook her head, "I said that I saw the magpie go to the kitchen to get lunch at noon, and no one went there in the evening, and now no one has found it in Xiyuan." ”

Su Nianxi chuckled, threw the dice back at his fingertips, and after ringing the bell for a while, he said, "Don't make a noise, if Xiyuan comes to ask, he will only say that he doesn't know." ”

Bi Tao knew that they had hidden it for a while, and the second lady would be able to escape for a while.

looked at the indifferent county lord, nodded with a smile, and said: "Xiao Guizi said that the third lady went to Tianyinfang today. ”

Tianyinfang is a place where King Liang often goes.

Su Nianxi's face flashed with sarcasm, "Hmm." sighed, and raised his eyes again, "Have you asked about the prayer post?" ”

Bi Tao nodded, "You didn't answer the post, there were four families who went to the long house, and one of them sent a post to Da Langjun, Xiao Guizi said that Da Langjun also invited someone to sit in his yard for an hour." ”

Su Nianxi raised her head again, "Which one?" ”

Bi Tao said, "The left waiter of the household department, the chief steward of the Sun family." ”
