Power ministers always make things difficult for me

Chapter 11, Chapter 11

The two stalemate for a long time, and finally Pei Qicai decided to let him go mercifully, and walked back to Qingxinyuan by himself under his escort.

It's just that even if he returns to Qingxinyuan, Pei Qi can't be too lax.

Ever since Ye Rou entered the prime minister's mansion, Rong Qin executed the little maid who had been by her side, and arranged two other maidservants for her.

So in the prime minister's mansion, from Tu You's dozen or so secret guards down to the woodcutters who do odd jobs and the maids and maids who serve people, except for her, they are all Rong Qin's people.

Wait...except her?

She probably understands why Rong Qin would tempt her in every possible way, and even mercifully agreed to take her, the "Madame" who had no love at all, to Banlan Lake for the Qiqiao Festival. Perhaps it was not just because of her subtle changes, but It was Rong Qin who wanted to use her to achieve a certain purpose.

If anyone wanted to arrange an undercover agent in the Prime Minister's Mansion, excluding the hidden guards and servants, it could only be her.

Recently, Prime Minister Zuo and the Queen Mother are also planning to rush back to the imperial capital from Qianfo Mountain, so they must make thorough preparations in advance. If the dead man who came to assassinate Rong Qin on the street today is Duan Qianjun's man, then Duan Qianjun will definitely try his best in the future. There is a way to plant his eyeliner beside Rong Qin.

After all, what Duan Qianjun cares most about is a person who knows himself and his enemy.

And if he wanted to put eyeliner beside Rong Qin, Duan Qianjun's best choice was to win over her, an unfavored but legitimate wife.

As for why Rong Qin took her to the Qiqiao Festival...

Oh, it's just a trick.

If she stayed in the prime minister's mansion all day, surrounded by Rong Qin's people, how could Duan Qianjun win her over?
By doing this, he wanted to catch that big fish Duan Qianjun, and test her "sincerity" by the way.

But Rong Qin, you have calculated thousands of times, but you can't figure out that I, Pei Qigan, came back to the imperial capital, and even turned into Ye Rou, who you thought you had always been in control of.

Half a month later, Qiqiao Festival, let's see who is slightly better.

But before that, she had to settle one more thing.

What's going on in her body is about to explode. At that time, her whole body is in unbearable pain and she has no strength. If Rong Qin finds out, she will definitely find out her identity.

She had to find a way to meet Xiao Si first.

Thinking of this, Pei Qi had another headache.

She knew that Rong Qin would not take the risk of losing Zhaolan Palace to get rid of Xiao Si, not to mention now that he knew Pei Qi was not dead, he would definitely lock up Xiao Si and wait for her to take the bait.

Then where would he lock Xiaosi...

After thinking about it all the way, Pei Qi didn't think of a reason, so he just sat at the table and lay down on it.

Not long after, Pei Qi's door was opened, and she raised her head inquiringly, looking coldly at the person who came up.

Looking at the attire, she was dressed in plain clothes, she should be the maid sent by Rong Qin to take care of Ye Rou.

It's just that although this maidservant has pretty features, there is a chill all over her body, which makes people disliked.

No wonder it's Rong Qin's person, it's hard to be a normal person by his side.

According to Ye Rou, this maid seems to be called...

Invite the moon.

"Inviting the moon?" Pei Qi called out boldly and tentatively.

Yaoyue's eyes moved slightly, she walked to the table, and nodded: "Madam, what are your orders?"

"No instructions." Pei Qi crossed his hands, raised his head, and stared at her with a smile: "Sit."

Yaoyue pursed her lips because she didn't understand, and narrowed her beautiful eyes slightly: "The status of a servant is low, and I dare not sit with my wife."

Pei Qi: ...

Look, what a girl, at a carefree age, but she was made into such a look by Rong Qin, she is even more stupid than that Tu You.

She has been pretending in front of Rong Qin all day, if she can't relax a little when she returns to her den, she will go crazy.

In addition, she also wanted to test to see if what she wanted to hear could be asked from this girl's mouth.

Pei Qi stood up, pinched Yaoyue's shoulders involuntarily, and pushed him directly onto the stool: "From now on, you don't have to follow the so-called rules with me."

Yaoyue was slightly taken aback, very puzzled by Pei Qi's actions.

Guessing what she was thinking, Pei Qi explained unhurriedly: "You have been serving me for a while, and because of my husband, I also had a grudge against you, so you and I have always treated each other as guests."

"I've been in the Prime Minister's Mansion for so long, and I've been holding back some things in my heart. How about talking to you? Don't tell your husband secretly, or he will blame me again."

After finishing speaking, Pei Qi still put on a frightened look for a while, for fear that Rong Qin would make trouble for her.

Although Yaoyue was a little uncomfortable with the change of "Ye Rou", she still made her dignity clear and nodded immediately: "It is my honor to be able to listen to Madam's thoughts."

Although Yaoyue said so on the surface, Pei Qi knew that she was Rong Qin's person after all, and the conversation between them would be passed on to Rong Qin's ears verbatim.

Therefore, her words can't be so obvious, at least, they can't make Rong Qin suspicious.

When she came to Rong Qin's side, she wanted to win his trust and weaken his power, instead of continuing to be the helpless and delicate Ye Rou.

Pei Qi first told her some things about the past, such as being treated coldly by Rong Qin when he first entered the prime minister's mansion, and that he had been doing his best, but he couldn't get Rong Qin's kindness after all.

"However, my husband agreed to spend the Qiqiao Festival with me. Although I don't know why, I am still very happy." Pei Qi held his face, looking full of spring.

Yaoyue has always been taciturn and didn't know what to say, but seeing her happy face, the corners of her mouth curled up as if infected: "Perhaps the relationship between the prime minister and his wife will get better and better."

"Really?" Hearing this, Pei Qi held her hand in surprise, and lowered her head shyly: "You have been in the palace longer than me, do you know what your husband likes? Or...where does he often go?"

"I also... want my husband to like me."

Yaoyue heard the words, her gaze turned cold for a moment, and she sharply met Pei Qi's gaze: "Madam is asking about your servants, the prime minister's movements?"

Pei Qi paused.

This girl is really not easy to fool.

But the more you meet such a person, the less you can panic, otherwise everything will be hidden.

Pei Qi nodded innocently, puzzled by her sudden sharpness: "Otherwise, what else can I ask you?"

Then the topic changed: "If you know something, tell me quickly, such as what he usually likes to eat, um... I remember, the restaurant in the north of the city has a good dish of fish. Would the Prime Minister like it? How about Let's sell it to him tomorrow."

Seeing what Pei Qi said, Yaoyue put away the chill in her eyes, and moved her lips: "Your Excellency's preference, I don't dare to speculate, but the Prime Minister said that Madam must not leave Qingxinyuan, I'm afraid I can't go to that restaurant. "

Tsk, it's still a no-brainer.

Hearing this, Pei Qi also knew that he couldn't ask any more questions, so he didn't bother to waste his time: "That's right, I can't leave Qingxinyuan."

Looking at the sky outside, Pei Qi rubbed his stomach: "Let's prepare meals, I'm hungry."

Yaoyue stood up, nodded and backed out: "Yes."
