Back to the early Tang Dynasty to be a fairy

Chapter 240 Si Niangzi, Lift Your Veil

Facing the bronze mirror, Pei Xinru turned her head left and right, looked at the half-up bun on her head, with a look of disgust on her face, and then broke up the bun that looked like a cockscomb in two or three strokes, leaving Her jet-black hair fell loose from her face again.

"What the hell kind of bun is this? It's actually said to be popular in the court..."

As she said, she grabbed her hair with both hands, divided it into two strands very skillfully, and after three or two strokes, put it on the top of her head again, combed back her original double spiral bun, and played it on the sides of her face playfully. Two small braids hung down.

"This bun is still pretty, and it doesn't delay me from wearing a veiled hat."

As she said that, she took out a small box from her dressing box and opened it, dipped a brush with something like a blue-black paint in the box, and swept it on her eyebrows a few times, immediately giving her a slender pair of hair. His brows look softer.

She took out the rouge again, dabbed it around her eyes a few times, carefully blended it with a cloth, then put the red spot on the middle of her lips, pasted it with flowers, and finally took a selfie in the mirror again, nodding in satisfaction.

At this time, a young man's voice came from outside the door of the room.

"Miss, the light car is ready!"

"it is good!"

Pei Xinru reached out and took her veiled hat from the side, put it on her head, and stood up buoyantly.

"Let's go to Pei Xianggong's mansion..."

"Yes!"

When Pei Xinru came to the door of the inn, her ornate light car was already waiting in front of the door.

She opened the curtain, got into the light car, and following the whistle of the young man driving the car, the light car staggered away from West Market, and drove towards Pei Ji's mansion.

Pei Xinru sat in the car with her eyes slightly closed. While closing her eyes and resting her mind, she began to seriously think about how to tell him about donating property and then receiving the temple property when she met Pei Ji, her nominal uncle.

After all, there are too many monasteries dismissed by the Fahua Sect this time, and it is impossible to take over all the previous temples of the Fahua Sect with the current manpower of the Sanlun Sect. Go to the monastery.

But such a good thing will definitely not be let go by other Buddhist sects. Although the Sanlun Sect has taken the lead now, it may not be able to guarantee that the matter will be done...

In this case, his uncle Pei Ji is very important.

Just when Pei Xinru was thinking repeatedly in her mind, she suddenly heard the boy in white who was driving the car whisper.

"Miss, something is wrong. There are many more soldiers around Mr. Pei's mansion."

"Soldier?"

Pei Xinru opened her eyes, raised the car curtain and looked outside.

Sure enough, around Pei Ji's mansion, there were more armed soldiers patrolling back and forth, and there were also some soldiers standing in front of the walls around the mansion.

And from Pei Xinru's point of view, each of these soldiers had vigilant eyes, and they were all very familiar with the posture of holding their weapons. They were definitely not the kind of people who had never been on the battlefield at all.

"These soldiers...could it be..."

Ten minutes later, Pei Xinru's light car stopped in front of Pei Ji's mansion under the attention of many soldiers, and Pei Xinru, who was dressed in white with a veiled cap, stepped down from the carriage.

"Please inform Uncle Pei Ji that Fourth Lady Pei Xinru is asking to see you."

At this time, in the hall of Pei Ji's mansion, a group of female musicians were sitting behind the screen, playing and singing hard.

In the middle of the hall is like a beauty pageant, Yan thin and fat, gathered together, a dozen or so gorgeous beauties gathered.Some of them have heavy makeup, like peonies in full bloom, some lightly sweep their eyebrows, like orchids in the mountains, some have cute and playful makeup, like jumping winter jasmine flowers, and some are dignified and glamorous, like blooming winter plums.

But these beauties all have one thing in common, that is, they dress very politely.

Following the music of the musicians, these women began to stretch their arms and legs, making all kinds of graceful movements, and they were happy together between opening and closing.

"oops……"

His Majesty Li Yuan, who was sitting at the head of the hall without hesitation, looked at the beauties in different poses in front of him. Not only did he not have any expressions of lust and soul, but instead he had a serious face and awe-inspiring righteousness.

"I really didn't know that there are still people in my Tang Dynasty who are so poor that they can't even find good clothes. It really hurts me, Pei Qing, that poorly dressed red I don't know where the woman in the clothes is from?"

Pei Ji looked sideways at the direction of Li Yuan's finger, and then whispered.

"This troubled woman is from Hebei. Because of Liu Heita's rebellion, her whole family was killed in the rebellion."

"This is my fault..."

Li Yuan said with a sad face.

"Pei Qing, my people are suffering, and I absolutely cannot ignore it."

"Don't worry, Your Majesty!"

Pei Ji replied very clearly.

"The minister will send him into the palace tomorrow. I think with His Majesty's benevolence, this troubled girl will definitely be able to bathe in the grace of heaven and be grateful."

The two monarchs and ministers looked at each other, and then they both smiled knowingly.

"Hehehe..."

At this moment, a servant suddenly ran to the front of the hall, whispered a few words to the butler standing under the hall, and then the butler looked at Pei Ji who was whispering to His Majesty Li Yuan in the hall, and waved his hand lightly.

"Now the head of the family is accompanying the saint, you go back to Fourth Lady and ask her to come back another day."

"Yes!"

After the servant agreed, he planned to walk out the door.

But neither the housekeeper nor the servants noticed that when the servants entered, their actions had already caught the eyes of His Majesty Li Yuan who was looking around and observing the people's sentiments.

He gave a low laugh, pointed to the door of the hall, and said to Pei Ji.

"Pei Qing, I'm a guest after all, don't call me up to ask what happened just because I delayed your business."

So, before the servants left the hall, he was called back again.

"What, Fourth Lady, Pei Xinru, please see me?"

After Pei Ji finished listening, he pondered for a while, and said to the servant.

"You tell Si Niangzi that the old man has a distinguished guest in the mansion today, so he can't be duplicated. Let her come back tomorrow!"

"Yes!"

The servant agreed, and just as he got up, he was stopped by His Majesty Li Yuan.

"Pei Qing, it's your fault. How can you turn away your niece when she comes to visit?"

"Actually, this fourth lady is a member of Mr. Fang Yuanhua, the western family of the Pei family in Hedong."

Pei Ji approached Li Yuan and said in a low voice.

"Although you are both from the Pei family of Hedong, you can't be regarded as your niece."

After hearing Pei Ji's words, His Majesty Li Yuan touched his beard with his hand, with a thoughtful expression on his face.

"Hedong Pei's... Xijuanfang... Pei Qing, the Yuanhua Duke you are talking about, could it be Pei Ju, the grandfather of Pei Qing's family, Pei Tuo?"

"Not bad!"

Pei Ji said with a sincere face.

"The sage is really well-informed. The grandfather of the fourth lady of the Pei family is Pei Ju's uncle Pei Suzhi."

"Oh……"

Li Yuan nodded slightly, with a clear expression on his face.

"Is that the Pei Suzhi who's better than Rang, and better than bright? I have heard of this person, but unfortunately he died young, and I have never met him, so I can be regarded as stingy with him."

"I've met Uncle Suzu, and he's really talented."

Pei Ji continued.

"Prince Zhan Shi Pei Ju is the elder of the fourth lady, and the fourth lady came to Chang'an this time to defect to Pei Ju, but because he went to Hebei with the crown prince, so as an elder of the same clan, he just helped take care of him."

"Oh!"

Hearing that Pei Ji's niece is actually a daughter of the genuine Hedong Pei family, His Majesty Li Yuan expressed even more interest.

"Since she is Pei Juqing's niece, she is not an outsider. Pei Qing, please come in and ask, what is she looking for you about?"

After hesitating for a while, Pei Ji finally waved at the servant.

"Go, Miss Fourth come in!"

Ten minutes later, His Majesty Li Yuan saw a woman dressed in white and wearing a white veiled hat, who looked like a fairy, came in gracefully from the outside, and kowtowed in the hall.

"Niece Xinru, I met my uncle!"

"Xinru..."

Pei Ji sat behind the table, coughed lightly, and pointed to His Majesty Li Yuan who was sitting on the main seat.

"This is the saint of today, you go to the ceremony first!"

"Yes!"

Pei Xinru agreed, then bowed her head again, bowing down to Li Yuanying.

"Pei Xinru, I have seen a saint!"

Between rising and falling, the dress fluttered, and the white veil hanging from the front of the valance fluttered up, and a delicate chin and red lips could be seen faintly.

His Majesty Li Yuan stopped twirling his beard for a moment, and looked involuntarily along Pei Xinru's veil.

But it's a pity that the beautiful scenery was fleeting, and His Majesty Li Yuan couldn't help but feel a little anxious, and the hand twirling his beard also increased his strength.

"Ah... Si Niangzi doesn't need to be too polite, I am also a guest today, so get up!"

"Thank you saint!"

Pei Xinru agreed, and then stood up gracefully. Following her movements, the veil hanging in front of her eyes also shook twice, attracting His Majesty Li Yuan's eyes, and also shook twice.

"Come on, take a seat!"

Following His Majesty Li Yuan's order, the servants in the hall immediately ran up, laid a cushion next to the table opposite Pei Ji, and served the food and wine.

"Thank you saint!"

Pei Xinru replied, then walked slowly to the table and sat down.

After she sat down, Pei Ji clapped her hands again, the musicians on one side continued to play music, and the girls in shabby clothes continued to dance.

But this time, His Majesty Li Yuan was not as interested as before. Although he looked as if he was enjoying singing and dancing, his eyes always quietly glanced at the veiled hat worn by Pei Xinru next to him. His scorching eyes seemed to be planning to penetrate The veil is the same as seeing the other person's true face.

Pei Ji looked at his good friend who was full of interest, and couldn't help sighing silently.

Pei Ji knows His Majesty Li Yuan very well...

Perhaps because of his lack of noble background, this good friend of mine not only desperately wanted to squeeze into the family tree of the Li family in Zhaojun after he ascended the throne, but also especially liked women from high families.

And the daughter of the Pei family in Hedong also happened to be in His Majesty Li Yuan's XP!

In fact, if this niece of his was an ordinary woman, then Pei Ji would not be so cruel as to push her into the pit of fire, but Pei Ji knew that his niece seemed to be very difficult. I don't know, I usually bring dozens of teenagers in and out...

This kind of woman is a little troublesome!
After the song, His Majesty Li Yuan couldn't wait to say to Pei Xinru.

"Si Niangzi, I see that you are wearing a veiled hat, and it is extremely inconvenient for you to drink and serve food. Why don't you take off the veiled hat and relax?"
