White Moonlight of Powerful Officials at large

Chapter 73

On the quiet Chang'an Street, under the moonlight, a carriage galloped by.

The driver had already whipped the whip as hard as he could, but someone in the carriage stuck his head out to urge him to go faster.

It was only when Gu Fei got into the carriage that he saw that Pei You's leg injury was so serious.

There was a hole directly on the thigh, and I don't know how deep it was stabbed with a knife.The wound was soaked in water again, it was just...

He is a martial artist, and he has seen the world, but he still can't bear to look at the wound.

In addition, even though it was already spring, the night was cold and cold, so it was natural to rush the people in front to hurry up.

"My lord, did that wicked woman from Zhao Zhai's family hurt you?" Gu Fei gritted his teeth, wishing he could rush to Zhao's mansion with his knife in hand.

Pei You's complexion was indeed not very good-looking, and there was a black and green air in his paleness. Although he was wearing a dry cloak, he could still see the clothes inside were sticking to his body wetly.

He didn't answer Gu Fei's words, but asked, "Who told you to enter the palace to find me?"

It was only then that Gu Fei remembered that there was a dagger in his arms, and he put his hands in front of Pei You: "It's that girl from the Wen family who hurried out of the palace and handed me this dagger, saying that something happened to you, and sent my subordinates to go near Tai'an Lake Looking for you."

Pei You's eyes fell on the dagger, which was the one he gave Wen Ning.

Gu Fei wouldn't listen to her orders if he didn't see the token. He just asked her to take the dagger and ride home in the carriage of the Duke's mansion. She still remembered him, so she had a bit of conscience.

I don't know if it was his own illusion, but Gu Fei felt that his heir apparent looked a little better.

"And then?" Pei You asked again.

Gu Fei hurriedly replied: "Seeing that she was in a panic, I sent someone to take her home first, and asked Wang Qinsheng to go back to the Duke's mansion to prepare a carriage, and then went into the palace to find you, thinking that the prince has always been..."

In fact, Gu Fei wanted to say "I have always had my own ideas", turned a corner, and said: "I have always kept a low profile. After entering the palace, I didn't dare to disturb the imperial guards. Fortunately, I found you soon!"

Pei You was half leaning on the carriage, her hair was already half dry, and it was stroked and half stuck to the side of her face, looking a little romantic, her eyes turned on Gu Fei's face.

"Go home and receive the reward."

Gu Fei: "Huh?"

Pei You raised her eyelids and looked at him.

Gu Fei reacted, ecstasy welled up in his eyes, he cupped his hands and said, "Thank you, my lord, for the reward!"

Suppressing his heart that was about to float up, he asked again: "My lord, where is the eldest princess..."

Pei You frowned: "What do you think?"

Gu Fei only breathed a sigh of relief, bowed his head and said: "This subordinate understands!"

Pei You gave a very low "hmm" in his nasal cavity, and his voice was a little tired: "Go out. When Tu Bai comes back, let him report back quickly, no matter what time it is."

"Yes!"

The carriage slowed down as it approached the Duke's Mansion.

When the prince returned to the mansion, the servants lit up the lamps in a regular manner, and knowing their master's temperament and preferences, they bowed their waists and lowered their hands, and their feet were soft and slow.

Gu Fei squatted down and wanted to carry Pei You in, but he raised his hand to refuse.

Wang Qinsheng had already asked the doctor to wait at the door. When he saw Pei You's gait, he only had injuries on his legs, and the injuries were not serious. His heart ached so much, he gave Gu Fei a hard look, and hurried forward to help him.

Feeling very wronged, Gu Fei: "..."

The doctor looked at the wound, prescribed medicine, and then helped the prince to bathe and change clothes, and applied medicine to bandage the wound. The time for the prince has passed.

Qinghui Hall did not calm down just yet.

The people in Fuquyuan sent a lot of things, including medicines and supplements.The sender didn't say anything, just saluted silently, put the things down and left.

Gu Fei looked at the expensive medicinal materials piled up on the table outside, hesitant to speak.

He didn't understand why the son was so wary of the Duke's mansion and the eldest princess. He said that mother and child are connected.
However, the willingness to return to the Duke's mansion after being injured this time is much better than the previous time when he avoided living in the Temple of Mercy.

Gu Fei didn't say anything in the end, Shizi Huijie's thoughts were beyond the reach of others, and he had already asked a nonsense question in the carriage just now.

The son returned to the Duke's mansion, what is his situation, why should he report to the eldest princess?
However, the eldest princess knew that the son had suffered such a serious injury, but she didn't come to visit the son in person?

"Your Majesty wants to rest, this subordinate resigns." Gu Fei felt that it was better not to think about these things with his own brain, and resigned.

Pei You was lying on the couch, of course he could hear the movements outside clearly, and there was even a faint smell of medicinal herbs outside from the tip of his nose.

He didn't take the initiative to report, and the eldest princess didn't come to ask, but only sent medicinal materials and supplements.

The meaning conveyed is clear.

She wouldn't do what he didn't want her to interfere with, but as a mother, she worried about his safety.

Pei You's brows and eyes loosened slightly, the cold determination on his face dissipated, and the muscles on his body relaxed unconsciously.

He couldn't help but think of Mrs. Wang.

Her tenderness and kindness built him the world's first high wall called "trust".

When he was young, he only knew that there were dangers outside the high walls. When he grew up, he knew the treacherous nature of people. When he came to the capital to understand the world and understand the current situation, he saw that the more noble the family, the more corrupt and embarrassing the inside.

Power is the first, profit is second, talking about "love" is a joke.

Pei You closed her eyes, but didn't intend to fall asleep.

In addition to bandaging the wound, the doctor implicitly said that there was still "residual poison" in his body, and prescribed a prescription, and Wang Qinsheng decocted it.

But the momentary slack in his heart still made him lose consciousness quickly.

The sun was shining brightly in a trance, and in the elegant courtyard, a woman in a turquoise dress leaned over in front of the embroidery frame, and was smiling at the person beside her.

When the sun fell on her eyes, there seemed to be water lines, rippling and generating waves.

The scene changed, and it was another spring night, the alley was silent and the moon was shining.The woman was thrown lightly against the wall by him, probably after drinking, her cheeks were pink, her eyes were sparkling, and she looked at him flickeringly.

"Are you really not happy with me at all?"

Soft and delicate.

In the blink of an eye, he had already held her face, the aroma of wine wafted across her face, and a pair of red lips were delicate and full, they moved gently, like a silent invitation.

He involuntarily took it, soft and sweet.

Lip to tongue probe, eat the marrow to know the taste, and continue to go deep in a hurry, wishing to tear the bones into the abdomen.

Pei You opened her eyes suddenly, realizing what she had dreamed, and frowned.

Just as he was about to call for someone, he caught a glimpse of the decoction on the table beside the couch, and poured it with his head up regardless of the temperature.

It's crazy.

Pei You closed her eyes and pressed her eyebrows.

"Young master." Tu Bai rushed in from the window at this moment, saw the injury on Pei You's leg, and half knelt in front of the couch, "Tu Bai is late! Forgive me, sir!"

Pei You restrained her thoughts, half-supported herself from the couch, and looked over with deep eyes: "How is the investigation?"

Tu Bai wasn't by Pei You's side these two days, so he went to check Yichun Garden in person.

I thought it would be easy to find out with a small hook, but it took a full two days.

"My lord, I just went to find out what Miss Wen was doing in Yichun Garden according to my lord's intention, but I didn't want to follow the clues. There are so many clues in it, it's not easy!"

Hearing this, Pei You sat up straight away, waiting for Tu Bai's next words seriously.

Tubai stroked his thoughts, and said slowly: "Miss Wen went to Yichun Garden before to disguise herself as a man, and the bustard kept silent about it, saying that she had no impression. But I checked Yichun Garden and found that it was probably just a shell , there is Bai Xiaosheng who is called "Young Master Yi" by the people of the Jianghu. There are some Jianghu people in the courtyard. I went back and inquired, and I only said that Mr. Yi is quite capable in collecting money and doing things, but they don't know how to meet Mr. Yi. , if necessary, can help inquire."

"Before I left, I asked them to inquire. I think there will be a letter in these two days."

"Besides, I ordered people to visit the girls in Yichun Garden unannounced, and discovered that Li Wen had also been to Yichun Garden in the past two months, and Miss Yingyao, before going to Tianxiang Pavilion, was the number one in Yichun Garden."

"My lord, I suspect that Miss Yingyao has a very close relationship with Yichunyuan, and Li Wen went to Miss Yingyao to find out the details of Yichunyuan."

Pei You raised his eyebrows and said, "How can you see that?"

"Every time Li Wen went to Yichun Garden, it was right after he had been to Tianxiang Pavilion. Our people kept staring at him, but the reason why we didn't find it was because his house was very close to Yichun Garden, and there was a hidden path. He often We only left the house at night. We checked the time, and every time Li Wen returned from Tianxiang Pavilion, he would re-enter Yichun Garden at midnight."

Yichunyuan, Li Wen, Yingyao, Wen Ning.

How can seemingly unrelated people and things be connected together?
"Tomorrow, you will go to Yichun Garden with me." Pei You said in a deep voice.

"Tomorrow?" Tu Bai raised his head, "Don't wait for the signal from Mr. Xun Yi?"

"Sooner rather than later."

"Yes!"

Tu Bai was about to step back when Pei You called him: "Wait a minute."

"Tomorrow, Gu Fei and I will go to Yichun Garden together, and you need to check one more thing."

"Sir, please speak."

"Check the actions of the two young masters of the Wen family before and after the dust-cleaning banquet tonight."

After Tu Bai left, Pei You lay back on the bed.

Everything is silent, the candlelight is dim, and the faint fragrance of medicinal herbs still flows from the tip of the nose.

The Wang's house was on fire, Li Wen, Wen Ning, Yichun Garden, Yingyao, and the dust-cleaning banquet.

There must be a thread connecting these seemingly unrelated people and things together.This thread is hidden without a trace, but it is not without a trace.

He had a hunch that as long as he found it, the truth would be revealed.

The long night is long, such a night that should be turbulent but ends in calm, under the cover of night, it is not peaceful after all.

In a corner of the capital, a man in black knelt and replied: "Master, it seems that Yingyao deliberately obstructed the cleansing banquet, but she failed."

The person in front of him stood with his hands behind his back, without turning his head, he only said, "Yingyao? Is it Yichun Garden again?"

"It is not yet possible to find out. But Yingyao is alone in Beijing, and it is true that she only has close contacts with Yichunyuan."

The man sneered: "The rivers and lakes are not involved in courts, so Yichunyuan's hand is too long."

"I don't know who that Mr. Yi is, he has repeatedly broken secrets, this time the operation is even more secretive, the subordinates did it themselves, the poison was poured on Wang Ziyi's wine cup, if he raises his glass and takes a sip of wine, he will be killed on the spot! "

When the man turned his head, his dark eyes did not lose their luster due to aging, on the contrary they became more majestic. He just stared down, causing the man in black to straighten his back.

He bowed his head and said: "Master, no third person will know about this matter!"

"That's all, a minister of Honghe Temple, let him live a little longer."

The man in black kowtowed again: "Thank you, master!"

"Yichunyuan again and again, there can be no more three, since you can't wait for it to be an eyesore, let's send them a ride."

"But Li Wen, I haven't figured out the key point yet. I don't know how they got to know about the fire in the palace and took action to stop it."

The man laughed again, and the hunting robe fluttered in the night wind: "What's the use of finding other people's secrets? What I want is someone who can keep the secrets."

And the best kept secret...

The man in black understood: "This subordinate takes orders!"
