Power ministers always make things difficult for me

After a chase, Pei Qi was panting and holding on to the wall, looking at the little girl with a mouse in her mouth in the distance and couldn't laugh or cry for a moment.

It's also hard for the guests in other rooms to come over and scold her after so long.

Pei Qi walked over, pinched the tail of the mouse and rescued it from Xingluo's mouth. He sighed softly, stretched out a finger and waved it in front of her eyes: "This thing can't be eaten."

Xingluo tilted his head and thought for a long time before he roughly understood what Pei Qi meant.

She grabbed one of Pei Qi's fingers and pulled her to the distant candlestick. She pointed at the mouse on Pei Qi's hand, then turned to point at the corner of the candlestick stand and uttered a few syllables inarticulately. .

"It - bites -"

Pei Qi looked along Xingluo's fingers and saw that the corner of the candlestick frame was already covered with bite marks from rats, as if it would break in the next second.

Immediately, I understood what Xing Luo meant.

This was explaining to her that the mouse had bitten the candlestick leg.

After all, she misunderstood the little guy.

Pei Qi rubbed Xingluo's little head lovingly, knelt down and apologized: "Okay, I misunderstood Xiao Xingluo. Catching this mouse will be a credit to you, and I will buy you something delicious tomorrow."

Unexpectedly, Xing Luo turned his head away, pouting proudly, and glared at Pei Qi.

It seems to be saying: I have clearly done meritorious service, but you still blame me!

Pei Qi laughed dumbly, not expecting that this little thing had a bad temper.

She stood up and looked out the window, guessing that it was almost past midnight, so she led Xingluo to the table and sat down.

"You stay here, I'll throw this rat out and I'll be back soon."

But Xingluo couldn't understand what Pei Qi meant. She thought that Pei Qi was angry with her and wanted to leave, so she quickly chased after her.

A pair of small hands grasped the hem of Pei Qi's clothes and refused to let go. His twinkling eyes stared at her with tears in his eyes.

Pei Qi had no choice but to hold her with his other hand and take her out together: "Don't worry, I don't want you."

That's all, even if you lose something, it doesn't hurt to take her with you.

"Sir, it's so late and you still want to go out?"

On the first floor, when the doorman saw Pei Qi coming down from upstairs, he hurriedly greeted him and smiled happily.

Pei Qi put the mouse in his hand in front of him, shook it, and said, "There was a bit of noise when Xingluo caught the mouse just now. If any guests come looking for me, please help me apologize."

The clerk said "Ouch", picked up the mouse with quick eyes and hands, and slapped it on the head: "It's really the shop's negligence that allowed this little beast to disturb the distinguished customers!"

"But you don't need to be nervous. The guest room you booked is on the third floor. The guest room on the second floor was booked by an adult just now. The adult hasn't arrived yet, so you don't have to worry about disturbing other guests."

"Sir?" Pei Qi raised his eyebrows and asked nonchalantly: "Does the store know who the master is?"

If an "adult" comes to the city, he will naturally be received by the local government. I have never heard of anyone willing to condescend to stay in this untidy inn.

Presumably, that adult, like her, did not want to make any announcement about this trip.

The waiter pointed to the door: "Well, the man standing at the door is the man's subordinate. He is the one who booked the guest room on the second floor."

Pei Qi followed the boy's direction and turned his attention to the cold and upright figure at the door. The man was holding a sword. Because his back was turned, Pei Qi could not see his appearance clearly.

But this aura...why did it make her feel inexplicably familiar?

Maybe the other party noticed Pei Qi's gaze, and saw him slowly turning his head and turning around...

It was okay that he didn't turn around, but when he turned around, Pei Qi was startled, and his eyes widened unexpectedly.

Neck Mom!

Isn't this Tu You? ? ? The moment he looked at Pei Qi, Tu You was also stunned, feeling that she was familiar.

It's just that he has never seen Pei Qi dressed as a woman. He has only seen Pei Qi dressed as Ye Rou.

Pei Qi quickly turned around and wanted to run back upstairs to hide, but there was Xing Luo beside her who was clutching the corner of her clothes for unknown reasons, making her neither advance nor retreat.

Then he simply picked up Xingluo from his waist, turned around and ran upstairs regardless of the little thing's surprised look.

But Tu You is not a fool. Although he didn't recognize Pei Qi at first glance, he could guess it after a little thought.

After all, he had met Pei Qi countless times, and it was impossible for him to admit his mistake.

After thinking about it, Tu You immediately raised his eyebrows and said tentatively, stopping Pei Qi from escaping: "Master Pei?"

In his heart, he was thinking about why Pei Qi was here.

What a coincidence.

In order to ease his own embarrassment, Pei Qi coughed a few times, turned around reluctantly and put Xingluo down. He gritted his teeth with a smile on his face and said, "Haha, what a coincidence."

"It's really a ghost. You can meet Commander Tu here."

There was a thorn in Pei Qi's words, but Tu You didn't care at all: "My lord is right behind me. Why don't the Imperial Master wait for a moment to catch up with my lord?"

"The Imperial Master made a complaint to my lord in front of His Majesty, and my lord... But I still haven't forgotten it."

Pei Qi secretly cursed, but there was no need to do so.

The shop assistant looked left and right and scratched his head: "Do you know the two distinguished guests?"

Tu You: "I know you."

Pei Qi: "I don't know him."

The second shopkeeper: "..."

He'd better leave first.

Pei Qi was silent for a long time, and said angrily: "I have no old history with your family, and we are not very familiar with each other. As for why you are here...your family has ulterior motives. Who knows what he is going to do?"

"So it turns out that the Imperial Master is outside, and this is how he slanders his reputation?"

As soon as Pei Qi finished speaking, a teasing voice came from outside, and she knew who it was without even thinking.

What a bad luck!

I saw Tu You naturally retreating from the door to the side, and three figures came towards him. The leader was holding a folding fan and wearing a plain long gown, which was naturally Rong Qin.

On his right side, Rong Li tied his long white hair into a high ponytail and held a sword in one hand, looking free and easy.

As for the man on the left, he was carrying a half-man-high sword case on his back and a wine flask in his hand. He was completely drunk, but the strong aura that hit his face was hard to ignore.

She has never seen this person before.

Similarly, this was the first time Rong Qin saw Pei Qi dressed as a woman. She was wearing a long green dress, with dense rabbit fur wrapped around her neck to keep warm. Her waist-length hair was half combed and half loose. She had delicate facial features and no makeup. If the bright autumn moon.

If it weren't for the words I heard when I entered the door, I would have been gentle and calm.

Rong Qin looked her up and down and said with a smile: "It would be much more pleasing to the eye if the Imperial Master does not wear court uniforms."

But before Pei Qi could say anything, Rong Qin noticed Xing Luo beside her again. He pretended to be surprised, but his words were full of teasing.

"Hey, we haven't seen each other for a few days, Imperial Master, you..."

"Are the children this old?"
