After rebirth, I joined forces with my mortal enemy to seek revenge.

Two figures walked together in Chongyi Square, passing by the crowd returning from the busy city. The broken pieces turned into six pieces and fell, accompanied by the bright moon and sparse stars in the night. The barking of dogs was drowned in the roar of people.

"Xuan Yin, Xuanyin, wait for me. Why are you leaving so fast?"

The man called Xuanyin walked mindlessly without any intention of stopping.

"Li Xiujing, can't you walk slower?" the person following him called as he ran.

Hearing this, Li Xiujing stopped and glanced at the person who was chasing him. Jian Mei frowned, "Grandson Jigui, I think you are neglecting your training."

"Hey, I'm not you." The visitor gasped and put his arm around his shoulders, "Come on, I'll take you somewhere. I heard that a new girl has moved into Chongyifang. She's very beautiful."

Both of them had drank just now, and now it was the time when they were full of alcohol.

Before Li Xiujing could answer, eldest grandson Jigui had already pulled him forward and ran forward.

The two stopped in front of a house. The eldest grandson Jigui bent down and picked up two stones from the ground, and pointed to the eaves bell not far away. He gestured to Li Xiujing and threw the stone to him, "Let's see who can throw the stone and call her out."

Li Xiujing frowned and took it. At this time, Changsun Jigui had already taken the lead, leaning slightly, aiming at the eaves bell and throwing the stone out. However, the stone did not go as he expected. Instead, it fell over the wall and fell inside.

Just when the eldest grandson Jizhou was feeling complacent, the sound of clear water coming from a well when the snow melted in spring came over the wall.

"Which bastard threw a stone at my mother?"

Hearing this sound, Changsun Jigui wanted to drag Li Xiujing away. But Li Xiujing not only shook him off, but also strode towards the house with a smile on her face.

"Creak" the door opened.

The moment he opened the door, Li Xiujing hid the stone in his hand. But the eldest grandson Jigui ran away.

Looking at the girl in front of him, Li Xiujing's smile deepened.

"Qingjia."

Hearing this, Pei Jiaoran ignored him. Instead, he looked at the person who was about to disappear around the corner and smiled, "Deputy Chief Sun, if you dare to take another step, Pei will find the censor to impeach you tomorrow morning."

After hearing her words, the eldest grandson Jigui had no choice but to retreat. Standing behind Li Xiujing, looking at Pei Jiaoran in front of the door with an innocent face.

She was wearing a lotus-colored floral skirt and a white brocade jacket. Her hair was pulled up casually, with only a hosta in it. The lip color is quite bright.

Pei Jiaoran frowned when he noticed that his eldest grandson Jigui was staring at him intently. He turned his eyes to look at the person beside him, and a smile appeared on the corner of his lips.

"Long time no see." She smiled.

Li Xiujing also smiled when he heard this, "Long time no see."

In fact, it didn't take long, just a year. She was already pale, but her peach blossom eyes were still like a cold and silent ancient well, bottomless. Even the smile is only on the surface.

The eldest grandson Ji Gui on the side looked at the two of them blankly.

"You two know each other?" he said.

But Li Xiujing just took another step towards Pei Jiaoran and still smiled and said: "Can't you let me go in and sit down?"

"Aren't you going home?" Pei Jiaoran folded his arms and leaned against the door frame, with a smile on his face, but he had no intention of inviting him in to sit down.

The laces swayed in the wind, making her taller. Standing here like an ancient sword with sharp edges.

The skin is like snow under the lamp, and the cyan blood vessels hidden underneath are faintly visible. Her eyes were as bright as autumn water, full of cunning calculations that could understand everything.

"I went back yesterday." Li Xiujing answered concisely and stepped forward to hold her hand. "Are you not cold standing outside? How about we go in and discuss it in detail?"

Glancing at the hand covering the back of his hand, Pei Jiaoran reluctantly walked inside.

Seeing the two of them entering hand in hand, the eldest grandson Jigui, who was still standing at the door, quickly followed in. He closed the door very obediently.

The house still smells of wine and the smell of mutton.

"Why did he follow here?" Pei Jiaoran glanced sideways and kicked his eldest grandson Jigui, who had already crossed the threshold.

"You two continue." The eldest grandson Jigui looked at the two of them with a teasing look, "Just pretend that I don't exist."

"Chengye, please go back first. We both have something to talk about." Li Xiujing let go of Pei Jiaoran's hand and sent him out very calmly.

When Li Xiujing came back, Pei Jiaoran had already taken off his coat and was sitting by the stove, looking at him with a smile in his eyes.

Without anyone else around, Li Xiujing looked much calmer. He walked to sit opposite Pei Jiaoran.

"Qingjia, have you forgotten something?" Li Xiujing asked with a smile.

Wenwen asked Pei Jiaoran, holding the tongs and adding a piece of silver charcoal to the furnace, "What did I forget?"

"Warm wine and wait for my return."

"That's what you said, I didn't say it." After speaking, Pei Jiaoran pointed to the wine jar aside, his lips and teeth pursed, "I just promised to wait for you in Chang'an. But there is still a small sip left, you can try it look."

Under her smiling gaze, Li Xiujing picked up the wine jar and drank. The taste in the mouth is as refreshing as before, but with a hint of rose aroma.

After savoring the taste of the wine, Li Xiujing moved her eyes to look at those cherry-red lips, "Don't worry, Bi Fei is fine. I have sent someone to escort her to Jiangnan. But why did you only write to her?" "

"Should I write you a letter? Didn't you mean in your letter that I should not write a letter?" Pei Jiaoran chuckled.

Seeing Pei Jiaoran's rogue look, Li Xiujing sighed secretly. He really shouldn't expect her to change her personality.

"Then don't you want to say anything to me?" Li Xiujing approached her and asked.

"The letter is very good, and the handwriting is also very beautiful. But sometimes it is too sour." Pei Jiaoran smiled solemnly, but there was a hint of regret in his eyes, "I have already advised you not to read those folk saying books. But you Just don’t listen.”

The careless look fell into Li Xiujing's eyes, making him irritable for no reason. Just as he was about to speak, Pei Jiaoran moved the charcoal basin away, stood up and came closer to him.

For a moment, a wisp of fragrance filled my nose.

"Since you have returned to the capital, it would be best for you to reconcile with your family. I think in a few days, I might be able to see your general's letter made." Pei Jiaoran's voice was soft and soft, lingering in his ears.

Looking down at Pei Jiaoran who was very close at hand, Li Xiujing's Adam's apple rolled slightly.

"Then why did you help me this time?"

"There are so many reasons. Don't Erlang want to return to Chang'an?" Pei Jiaoran did not answer directly, and then raised his eyebrows, "Is Erlang willing to stay in Guazhou for the rest of his life?"

As long as a person lives, he will always have ambitions and desires. She didn't believe that Li Xiujing would be willing to stay in Guazhou for the rest of his life. In this case, why not use his family background to become an official?

After speaking, Pei Jiaoran stood up and took a deep breath. He walked to the candlestick nearby, picked up the gold scissors and gently cut off the candle flowers without saying a word.

The lingering fragrance disappeared in the room.

Li Xiujing turned to look at Pei Jiaoran, who was cutting candle flowers seriously, "Actually, Lieutenant Liu and I have known each other since early in the morning. He hopes that I can go to Youshen to strategize the army."

"Don't Erlang want to join the Youjun Army?" Pei Jiaoran asked softly.

"Of course not."

For him, of course the right army is better. It's just that he was more curious about where Pei Jiaoran wanted him to go.
