The beauty is delicate and soft, and he madly criticizes the powerful officials for taking her as th

The eunuch stumbled and explained the situation. Zhao Heng was not interested at all, and he didn't know who to give the jade pendant in his hand.

In the end, I found Miss Lu quite pleasing to my eye, so I walked towards her.

Before they could move even two steps, two cold arrows came from nowhere and barely missed the shoulders of Zhao Heng and Miss Lu.

Zhao Heng couldn't hold the jade pendant for a moment and broke it.

Chen Zhaoyi looked ugly and seemed to have muttered "evil fate". She tiredly ordered the palace attendants to send the concubines back to the palace.

When Yu Tingwan was walking through the corridor next to the Zengcheng Palace, he saw a young man sitting on the ground and let out a slight "hiss".

Jiao Yue smelled the blood and said solemnly: "My Lady, that's an assassin, please wait for a moment."

Just when the dagger in Gaoyue's hand was about to hit the boy, she paused and said in a different tone: "Princess?"

Pei Shu didn't know Jiao Yue, so she guessed that she was the Dragon-Slaying Guard. She grinned in pain and said, "My brother sent you here? Tell him that I won't go back."

"This slave belongs to the noble concubine."

Pei Shu's eyes flashed, and she looked across the bright moon and saw Yu Tingwan's face. Her heart tingled, and the resentment caused by the white fox skin disappeared.

"My dear concubine, someone is chasing me, can you help me?" Pei Shu bowed pitifully, "If I am caught, my brother will kill me."

When she heard that Zhao Heng was choosing a wife, she put on men's clothing and escaped from the princess's palace. She stood guard on the high platform next to Zengcheng Palace, planning to draw her bow and shoot arrows. She would kill whoever Zhao Heng chose.

The third cousin's wife, if it weren't for her, Pei Shu, would only be a corpse.

Pei Shu had honed her acting skills with her eldest brother, and now she was in tears, and she looked so aggrieved and scared.

Footsteps were heard in the distance, they should be the Habayashi Guards who were chasing the assassin.

"You can help me if you want." Yu Tingwan was silent for a moment, "But you have to tell me why you ruined the flower viewing party for no reason."

"It's too late. I will explain it to the empress later." Pei Shu hurriedly pulled Yu Tingwan and hid in the unoccupied hall, and even imitated a few cat calls to confuse the Yulin guards.

Because she was walking in a hurry, Yu Tingwan's hair was a little messy, and she watched Pei Shu hide in the cupboard.

Pei Shu said with some pride: "I learned it just now, right? I learned it from the same subordinate as my mother."

"Don't worry, those Yulin guards can't hear it. If someone knocks on the door, I'll just tell them to get lost."

Yu Tingwan pursed her lips, and Pei Shu quickly said: "My dear, please don't leave me alone. My eldest brother is really scary."

She muttered in a low voice: "I just like Zhao Heng, nothing else."

Yu Tingwan was heartbroken, but also shocked that the princess actually dared to shoot arrows at the prince and noble women in the palace.

Outside the palace, Yu Linwei hurriedly arrived, but did not see the assassin figure. He was the first to stop Jiao Yue.

"Who are you? Have you ever seen such a tall boy?"

"I haven't." Jiaoyue saw that the man was about to enter the side hall, "The imperial concubine is changing clothes inside, I'm afraid it's not convenient to go in."

The man stopped, and the Yulin Guard behind him had blocked the corridor, but now he forced a gap to the side.

Someone dressed in purple official uniform walked to the door of the side hall. After standing still, his expression was calm and he whispered to the leader of the Yulin Guards: "Go and ask, is the noble concubine really inside?"

"Yes, my lord." He knocked on the door gently, his voice like a bell, "My concubine, have you ever seen an injured young man."

Pei Shu's eyes darkened in the hall, and it turned out to be Chen Xi. This man was the eldest son of the Chen family. He was stubborn and only listened to Pei Zhi's words.

He tracked down the assassin, and he didn't care whether he was a noble concubine or not. He had to come in and check before leaving.

Pei Shu was a dead horse and a live doctor. She carefully recalled the tone of her elder brother's words, coughed twice and said, "Boyang, you go to the palace first and wait for Gu to return."

She deliberately imitated her eldest brother's voice, and when it came out vaguely through the palace door, there was actually a Qiqi image.

There was a sudden silence outside, no one dared to speak. Chen Xi was a little nervous, as if he suddenly heard King Wei chuckle, but he couldn't tell the emotion.

With a "bang", the door of the palace was kicked open. Pei Shu was holding Yu Tingwan's waist and was about to escape through the back window. When she turned around, she saw her brother's face was gloomy.

Pei Shu froze on the spot, so panicked that she couldn't move her legs. Why was he here?

Pei Zhi looked at Yu Tingwan, smiled what could be called a warm smile, and said softly: "I scared your empress, I'm so sorry."

"It doesn't matter." Yu Tingwan felt that it was not suitable to stay here for a long time, and Pei Shu had better seek happiness for herself.

"Boyang, send your empress back to the palace." Pei Zhi took another look at her dark clothes and his expression softened.

Chen Xi took the order and retreated, leaving only the brother and sister in the palace.

"Pei Shu, you are very courageous." Pei Zhi's eyes were as cold as frost and snow, "There are many people who want to pretend to be lonely, but in broad daylight, you are the first and the worst."

Pei Shu moved her lips, wanting to explain something, but felt that whatever she said at this time was wrong.

"You are going through all this trouble just for Zhao Heng." Pei Zhi sneered, "If we had given up this thought earlier, I would have asked His Majesty to grant Zhao Heng a marriage tomorrow."

Pei Shu was so frightened that her legs were weak. When she heard this, she subconsciously stepped forward and knelt on the ground.

She almost crawled to her brother, grabbed the corners of his clothes and begged him.

"Brother, I beg you, whether you send me to my third brother or to the suburbs of Beijing to be a nun, don't let me see him get married with my own eyes."

Seeing that Pei Zhi was unmoved, Pei Shu choked and said, "Brother, if you do this, I will hate you."

"There are too many people who hate being alone in the world, and you are not missing."

Pei Zhi refused to give in. "Pei Shu, there are so many good men in the world, why should you choose him?"

"There are so many good girls in the world, why would my brother choose a noble concubine?"

Pei Shu could tell at a glance today that Yu Tingwan's clothes came from the Palace of the Prince of Wei. Both the materials and the workmanship were not comparable to those of today's weaving houses.

What's more, the lotus pattern on the skirt is too familiar to her.

Pei Zhi loved lotuses when he was young. He brought living water into the house to dig lotus ponds and drew lotus pictures with his own hands. Everything he owned must have lotus patterns on it.

In the end, Pei Xu reprimanded him and said that people in high positions should not disclose their preferences to the public, and he changed his habit.

As soon as Pei Shu saw the lotus pattern on the hem of the imperial concubine's skirt today, she guessed that her brother's selfishness could not be hidden at all.

Pei Zhi said calmly: "You are overthinking. I just think she suits that dress."

"Really? Yuan Ziyu will return to Beijing next month to celebrate the old lady's birthday." Pei Shu said quietly: "I hope he won't see this dress, or he really believes what you say."

"What can he do if he sees it?" Pei Zhi's eyes showed a hint of ridicule. When he left, he said to the Dragon Slaying Guard waiting outside the palace: "Who is on duty at the Princess's Mansion today? He will receive thirty military sticks."

Pei Shu was once again imprisoned in the Princess's Mansion. This time the guards were even tighter, and only sporadic news came in.

For example, Zhao Heng and the Lu family are engaged, and the wedding will be in half a year.

Pei Shu was heartbroken and asked Dragon Slaying Guard to deliver a message to the King of Wei. She wanted to go to Youzhou to meet her third brother and no longer wanted to stay in Chang'an.
