Power ministers always make things difficult for me

9 Chapter 9, watching the fire from the other side

"Is that really the case?" Rong Qin loosened his grip, and then with a sinister smile, he leaned close to Pei Qi's ear, half coaxing, half threatening: "Madam used to be very obedient, I hope it will be the same in the future, understand?"

Is this warning her?

"Ming, understand..." Pei Qi trembled, his face pale.

Seeing this, Rong Qin didn't make things difficult for her, and raised his hand to wipe away the tears from the corners of her eyes: "Okay, why are you crying?"

Pei Qi: ...

What are you crying about?
Of course I was scared by you.

Although she was pretending, Rong Qin noticed her strangeness just now, which really made her panic.

To be by the side of a man with uncertain weather would surely cost him ten years of life.

Seeing that the banquet was halfway through, Rong Qin didn't want to spend any more time here. The purpose of his trip was nothing more than to see if Ye Chong was in peace. As for the birthday of the mistress of the Ye family, what did it have to do with him?
Rong Qin pulled Pei Qi up, sent someone to meet Ye Chongzhi, and left on his own.

Pei Qi didn't dare to ask any more questions, so he just followed Rong Qin into the carriage, and before leaving, he pretended to look at Ye's mansion reluctantly, and performed all the tricks.

This can be regarded as successfully sneaking into Rong Qin's side, right?
On the carriage, Rong Qin was lying comfortably on his side on the bench, while Pei Qi tightly clutched his sleeves and pressed against the door frame, as far away as possible from Rong Qin.

As for the reasons, one is to maintain Ye Rou's personality, and two...

It was Pei Qi who simply responded to him.

Rong Qin's bastard is carved into his bones. People who don't know him only look at his appearance, maybe they really think he is an honest gentleman, but in Pei Qi's eyes, he is a real villain.

Just as she was thinking about it, the carriage suddenly shook violently, and Pei Qi knocked heavily on the door frame inadvertently, causing her face to wrinkle instantly in pain.

When she came back to her senses, Rong Qin, who was still taking a nap, was looking at her with some amusement.

Pei Qi was instantly ashamed.

Damn it, shame on the rascals.

Rong Qin moved his lips: "What are you doing sitting so far away?"

"I'm afraid to disturb my husband." Pei Qi lowered his head, not daring to look at him.

Hearing this, Rong Qin sat up and moved to one side to make room for her: "Sit here."

Pei Qi: ...

Are you sick?
Does this person think that anyone is willing to be next to him?
Although I couldn't help complaining, Pei Qi still put on a weak look on his face: "I'll just sit here, my husband should lie down and rest."

"Huh?" Rong Qin narrowed his eyes dangerously, as if displeased with her disobedience: "Don't let the truth be revealed a second time."

Ge Ying should belong to Ge Ying, and Pei Qi couldn't really annoy him, so he bravely moved over and sat next to Rong Qin.

Rong Qin embraced her in his arms, raised his hand to pinch her face, pressed his jaw against her chin, and looked down.

Pei Qi felt uneasy, and didn't dare to make too much movement, so he could only look at him pitifully, with a trace of confusion and anxiety in his eyes.

"Madam wants to go to Banlan Lake to celebrate the Qiqiao Festival?" Rong Qin suddenly said this for no reason.

Pei Qi didn't understand why.

This is just an excuse for her to deal with Rong Qin, a begging festival, how can she be interested?
However, why does Rong Qin still remember this insignificant matter?
"How about going with you for my husband in half a month?" Seeing that Pei Qi didn't answer, Rong Qin thought he was frightened by him. .

Pei Qi froze in surprise, not knowing why he had such a big change.

Randomly, she smiled in surprise: "Really? Is your husband really willing to take Ah Rou to the Qiqiao Festival?"

"Naturally." Rong Qin pulled her up, pressed her head on his chest, and pampered her: "How often have you ever lied to your wife as a husband?"

Oh, sanctimonious.

Pei Qi sneered secretly, but passed Rong Qin's waist with his hands, and hugged him gently, relying heavily on him: "Thank you husband."

From an angle she couldn't see, Rong Qin's face suddenly turned cold, and he glanced at the person in front of him who was completely dependent on him, his eyes were filled with deep gloom.

The two leaned on each other, but each had their own calculations in their hearts.

Since Rong Qin wants to play this kind of "husband and wife love" drama with her, then she will play it with him.

But what is Rong Qin's purpose?

If he still doubted her identity, he wouldn't let it be so simple when he was in Yefu just now. With his character, he won't give up until he finds out.

Or, he wanted to use Ye Rou to achieve a certain purpose?
Half a month later, Qiqiao Festival...

She always felt a little uneasy.

Ye Rou is such a delicate and weak vase, how can he use it?
"Call-"

"There are assassins!"

"Protect the prime minister!"

Suddenly, the carriage stopped suddenly, and because of inertia, Pei Qi couldn't control himself and rushed forward.

If it wasn't for Rong Qin holding her, she might have fallen out of the carriage by now.

Pei Qi looked up in horror, only to see that Rong Qin's face became darker and darker, and the big hand around her waist moved unconsciously, pinching Pei Qisheng painfully.

This guy is probably really angry.

Rong Qin got up, pressed her on the seat, looked at her panicked little face, and squatted in front of her slightly comfortingly: "Madam, don't be afraid, just stay here for now, and come back when you go for your husband."

Pei Qi was eager for him to leave, nodded immediately, and looked at him worriedly: "Okay, husband, be careful."

After Rong Qin left, Pei Qi put away his weak and soft look, and leaned back lazily.

In broad daylight, they dared to assassinate Rong Qin recklessly on the Avenue of the Imperial Capital with great fanfare. Should it be said that they were brave, or reckless and stupid?
You know, since Rong Qin brought her down, no one in the court has the ability to contend with him. The court of the Dasheng Kingdom belongs to Rong Qin alone.

Who on earth is willing to attack Rong Qin after she bids farewell to the court?

Could it be...

In a daze, Pei Qi's eyes froze, and then he pursed his lips in a clear way.

It turned out to be the case.

During the Dasheng Dynasty, some people always liked to see the scenes where she and Rong Qin were at odds, and even retreated from the edge, and followed the Queen Mother to Qianfo Mountain to chant scriptures and worship Buddha, even if they fought to the death, they would turn a deaf ear to it.

But that person was biased not to allow either she or Rong Qin to monopolize the power.

Now that she is down, Rong Qin's power is expanding like a scourge, and it's time for that person to take action.

Duan Qianjun is the prime minister on the left.

It is also the variable and opportunity she has been waiting for in prison.

Although Duan Qianjun is also a highly valued minister, he is working for the Queen Mother in private.

She had also investigated Duan Qianjun before, and knew that he had a very close relationship with the Queen Mother, but what was the specific relationship? After two years of investigation, she found nothing. She only knew that Duan Qianjun was doing some shady things in private.

Later, when Rong Qin made things difficult for the court, she no longer had time to take care of Duan Qianjun, and he announced his temporary retirement from the court and went to Qianfo Mountain with the Queen Mother, so the matter was shelved.

But she knew that Duan Qianjun was definitely not a simple character.

If one day, she and Rong Qin's evenly matched balance suddenly tipped over, no matter which side it was, he would strike.

So in prison, she was confident and firmly believed that as long as she did not plead guilty, no matter how serious her crime was, Duan Qianjun would protect her from death.

In the past, she and Rong Qin were in the open, and Duan Qianjun was in the dark, watching them fight and happy to see the result.

Now let her see, Duan Qianjun and Rong Qin, the two prime ministers on the left and one on the right, are going head-to-head, who is better.

Let her also be the bystander watching the fire from the other side.
