Chapter 27 Don't be afraid

The two looked at each other and reached a certain tacit understanding.

The fifth prince Feng Anche was not only favored, but also because he was young and easy to control. With Pei Qingci's support, he was bound to win the throne.

"Pei Qingci, you are so wicked that you want to train such a young child into a puppet."

He smiled softly and said, "To each other."

Pei Qingci was discussing who was the most suitable candidate, and the Grand Master was not idle either. He became very angry when he thought about the Prime Minister's pressure to depose the Crown Prince.

But then he thought that the enemy of his enemy was not his friend, and the Prime Minister's ambition seemed to him the most appropriate: "Go and hand this letter to the Prime Minister, and be sure not to be discovered."

The man should give the order.

Although the Grand Master was cunning and cunning, Pei Qingci intercepted the letter in advance. The letter was intercepted by Pei Qingci's people and handed over to him intact after being read by Pei Qingci.

Just let these two go dog-eat-dog, and it just so happened that he ended up with both hands clean.

From that day on, Pei Qingci found that Pei Yijin seemed to be out of town every day.

"Miss is not in the house today?" Pei Qingci frowned, seeming displeased.

Aunt Liu did not dare to meet his eyes, so she knelt down and replied respectfully: "Recently, Miss Gu has been getting closer to Miss Gu from the General's Mansion, and she often makes appointments with Miss Gu."

Pei Qingci's eyes moved slightly, and he turned and left in silence for a moment.

Gu Qingyuan held the news he had just received from Doctor Ren with a solemn expression. Xie was indeed poisoned. To be precise, it was not poison but a poison.

A chronic poison called Golden Silkworm Gu. It is said that this kind of poison is only found in the Western Regions. Once the poison enters a person's body, it will gradually begin to eat away at the person's internal organs until the person who is poisoned dies in his sleep.

And the process is almost imperceptible. People who practice this poison use it very sinisterly, and they need to be fed with the blood of children and mothers every day.

It was only because of a friend who had stayed in the Western Regions for two years that Dr. Ren realized that it was poison.

Gu Qingyuan thought about it and couldn't figure out who was from the Western Regions. Apart from the Jiang family and the old lady, he couldn't figure out who had such a big grudge against the Xie family and would use such a vicious method.

At the moment, we can only find a way to remove the poison from Xie's body, and then find out the person behind the scenes. This matter is probably related to Jiang and the old lady. As for whether Gu Liangyue is involved, it's hard to say. .

"Miss, miss, let's go another way." Ningdong tugged on Gu Qingyuan's sleeve.

"Huh? Why?"

"Little Marquis Pei is over there, let's avoid him."

Following Ningdong's line of sight, Pei Qingci, who was wearing a purple brocade robe, was walking forward without squinting.

Gu Qingyuan's eyes lit up. She happened to be worried about what reason to use to see him for the past two days, and she took Longlian in hand: "Ningdong, is my hair messy?"

Ningdong shook his head: "No."

"That's good." Gu Qingyuan took a deep breath and then walked towards Pei Qingci. Ningdong wanted to pull him but didn't.

Wouldn't her young lady really fall in love with Mr. Pei Xiaohou as rumored by the outside world? !

Walking around behind Pei Qingci, Gu Qingyuan patted him on the shoulder: "Pei Qingci!"

Pei Qingci turned around when he heard the sound, and saw that her tense expression made her look better: "Miss Gu."

"Why are you here?" Her voice was soft and as warm as water.

"Looking for some ideas." Pei Qingci just replied lightly.

Gu Qingyuan then remembered that Pei Yijin was still at her home. Mrs. Xie liked her very much. Mrs. Xie was playing with her when Gu Qingyuan came out.

Pei Yijin is the same girl as in the previous life. He has no intentions in front of her and loves to cling to her. It just so happens that she might be able to get Longlian through Pei Yijin.

Gu Qingyuan smiled, and naturally took Pei Qingci's big hand and looked at it: "He has almost recovered. It seems that my golden medicine was not in vain."

Her fingers were still soft, just like that night. Pei Qingci's throat was dry, his thoughts were suddenly confused, and he looked aside calmly.

Gu Qingyuan stretched out her hand and waved it in front of his eyes: "I'm talking to you, are you listening?" His voice was a little dull: "Listen."

"Then do you want to dine with me?"

Pei Qingci wanted to refuse, but the girl looked over with a tiny glint in her eyes, with a hint of expectation and caution in her eyes.

That's all, it's just a meal, and I can take Yi'er home with me.

"it is good."

After receiving his answer, Gu Qingyuan immediately smiled brightly: "Then let's go." After saying that, she led him away.

After holding the person behind her motionless for a long time, she realized something was wrong and let go with a slight embarrassment: "Let's go, let's go."

After all, Pei Qing's first step was to let others see her on the street, which would bring bad reputation to her.

No one expected that Gu Qingyuan would bring a man back quietly.

The furnishings of Jinglan Garden are not unfamiliar to Pei Qingci. He has never officially set foot in her bedroom, but the time last night does not count.

"Sit down, Ningdong, please ask the kitchen to cook some food, and call Ayi back." Pei Yijin was probably in the Xie family's courtyard when he came back.

"By the way, what do you like to eat?" Of course Gu Qingyuan knew Pei Qingci's taste, but he still had to ask out of politeness.

"It will be all right."

Many of the little maids in Jinglan Garden cast admiring glances at Pei Qingci, but they only glanced at him. This was the man brought back by the young lady, and they did not have the courage to look at him more.

Gu Qingyuan curled her lips: "Then I will let them come according to my and Ayi's taste."

"Ah."

Seeing that he still looked indifferent, Gu Qingyuan couldn't help but cursed in his heart.

As soon as the food was on the table, Pei Yijin jumped in the door. She still hadn't had enough fun, but she had to listen to Sister Gu's words.

As soon as he entered the door, he saw Pei Qingci sitting at the dining table. Pei Yijin's eyes widened in shock and he hurriedly hid behind Gu Qingyuan, thinking that Pei Qingci was here to arrest her.

Gu Qingyuan patted her hand and comforted her, "Don't be afraid."

"Pei Qingci, don't keep a straight face, you scared A Yi."

Pei Yijin glanced at Pei Qingci timidly, and then sat down when he saw the other party nodded. Pei Yijin ate her meal slowly, and Gu Qingyuan kept adding vegetables to her bowl: "Sister, eat, sister eat." The two of them followed each other well. Like sisters.

Pei Qingci took a quick glance and found that half of the food here catered to Yi'er's taste.

It seems that his sister often comes to the General's Mansion to have a meal.

Pei Yijin had the habit of taking a nap and would start making noises about going to bed after just two bites. Gu Qingyuan wanted her to sleep here, but Pei Yiyi recognized the bed and started making noises and went home.

"Let's go." Pei Qingci put down his chopsticks and prepared to go back home with her.

Pei Yiyi arched his eyebrows and smiled: "Yi'er will go back by himself. Brother, eat until you are full." As he spoke, he touched his round belly.

She knew that Pei Qingci was tired and hadn't eaten much just sitting down.

Gu Qingyuan saw this and said, "Yue Tao, take a few people to send A Yi back."

After Pei Yijin left, there were only two people left chatting at the dinner table, but Gu Qingyuan was basically talking, and Pei Qingci answered. Fortunately, this person was listening to her carefully.

Although Pei Qingci's eating speed is not slow, it looks very pleasing to the eye.

Gu Qingyuan poked at the rice in her bowl dully. Just when she was about to say something, she choked on Pei Qingci's words and couldn't eat or sleep.

After the meal, Pei Qingci left without any regrets, leaving Gu Qingyuan lying on the table depressedly: "Ningdong, do you think Pei Qingci has any objections to this young lady?"
