It was warm inside the tent and quiet all around. With the scent of Xun Lingjun's ten-mile incense filling his nose, Pei Jiaoran temporarily lowered his guard. Let Li Xiujing take her step by step onto the wave, throw her up high, and then fall down quickly. Feeling very comfortable being tortured, she simply closed her eyes.

There are thin lines in the dream. Wrapping around her, clinging to her limbs, tightening little by little. Lift her close to the clouds and let her be surrounded by flowing clouds. The pleasure lingered around her, trying to melt into her body, fighting for control over her. During her struggle, she was pulled by the thread and fell to the ground. Dimly, she saw herself awake, standing not far away and watching with cold eyes.

She saw her lips and teeth trembling, as if to remind her of something. She smiled and held out her hand. And she reached out and held her hand.

When her eyes met with her who was awake. Pei Jiaoran raised his lips and smiled.

"It's time for you to wake up."

"Well, it's time to wake up."

She won't dwell on any one place.

Pei Jiaoran slowly opened his eyes. A ray of skylight happened to slip in along the raised curtain, and disappeared in an instant before it even got close to her. There was still heat around me, and there was noise coming from outside. After listening carefully for a while, she rubbed her forehead.

Although she was very tired, she couldn't be lazy at this time. Pei Jiaoran got up and lay down, took out a bamboo green robe from his luggage and put on it. Walking past the screen, I saw a small stove on the desk, with food simmering on it.

After thinking for a while, Pei Jiaoran finished washing and eating. He just opened the curtain and walked out.

"Why don't you sleep a little longer?" Li Xiujing heard the movement and turned around to ask.

Pei Jiaoran blinked and replied: "I have to go to the Weiqiao warehouse. The food is coming soon, and the coordinating manpower must be arranged there."

"Okay. Then I'll send someone to take you there?"

After hearing this, Pei Jiaoran shook his head and went to the stable alone. He got on his horse and galloped out of the camp.

Riding his horse to stop beside the Ba River, Pei Jiaoran looked at the rushing river in front of him with the corner of his mouth slightly raised. As long as you keep walking forward and cross Baqiao, you can return to Chang'an.

The hustle and bustle of Chang'an was carried by the wind from Lishan Mountain and blew onto me. Pei Jiaoran stroked his horse's mane, turned its head and continued running towards Weiqiao Barn.

She asked someone to bring a letter to Mr. Wang Guo. But I haven't seen him here right now, so I guess he's still thinking about it.

A post house in Tongzhou. Mr. Wang Guo, who was guarded by his servants, read the letter in his hand with a complicated expression. He raised his eyes and looked at the group of Shence sergeants in front of him.

The letter made it very clear that these Shence troops were sent by Pei Jiaoran to greet him and escort him to Dongwei Bridge. Chang'an is still in chaos right now, and if someone gets the news, they will take the opportunity to attack him. And she gave him a choice.

"Shang Shu Pei is so clever..."

Nowadays, Pei Jiaoran is a very popular person in the court. Wang Yun, on the other hand, fell into the trap step by step under her plan, and was eventually demoted to Xinzhou Sima by her through Qin Huaiyi's hand. They even used this military disaster to quietly eliminate the Wang family's influence in the court.

And she doesn't have blood on her hands.

In fact, he had already learned from Jia Gonglu that the driving force behind Wang Yu's demotion was Pei Jiaoran. Her family has been defeated, but the culprit wants to step on them to reach the peak of power. How can she achieve what she wants? He was determined to sabotage her plans and plans. But now he suddenly found that under the guidance of Jia Gonglu, he seemed to have fallen into another trap. Those who sit on the mountain and watch the fight between tigers will be reversed again.

Wang Guolao sighed. The last person who gave him such a sense of shrewdness and cunning was the late emperor. "Okay, I should go to Dongweiqiao to meet with Pei Shangshu."

After hearing the news that Wang Guolao was on the road, Pei Jiaoran had a slight smile on his face. Only two days had passed before the date she agreed with Sergeant Shence.

But it was a pity that the day when Mr. Wang Guo arrived happened to be the day when the batch of grain escorted by Zhenhai Jieshuai arrived. After thinking for a while, Pei Jiaoran wrote a letter and called He Liang in. Ask him to send someone to Lantian County on her behalf to call Lu Zheng back.

Now that Mr. Wang Guo has left, it doesn't make sense whether to keep anyone in Lantian County or not.

At noon, Wang Guolao and his party entered the Lishan boundary under the protection of the Shence Army. As long as you walk a few miles forward, you will arrive near Dongwei Bridge.

Beside the Bashui River. Pei Jiaoran, dressed in plain clothes, stood with her hands behind her hands, and the mountain wind blew her clothes. She looked up into the distance until a wisp of smoke came into her sight, and a smile appeared on her lips.

The carriage stopped not far from her, and an old man got out of the carriage. He stopped and looked at the girl in plain clothes in front of him, and couldn't help but hold his lips.

"Old Wang Guo." Pei Jiaoran bowed to him and said warmly.

She spoke first, seizing the opportunity.

"Pei Shangshu."

The two greeted each other. Wang Guo Lao walked over slowly, but the Wang clan members who followed him were stopped at a distance by the Shence Army.

Seeing this, Mr. Wang Guo could only follow Pei Jiaoran and walk towards the Bashui River.

A gauze curtain stands beside the river bank, with a table and two cushions. Under the river breeze, it seems that as long as you enter this veil, any political plot will be isolated from the outside. And not a single word of the conversation here would be spread outside.

He glanced at Mr. Wang with a smile. Pei Jiaoran took out a set of wine vessels from the food box, plus a jar of clay pots. Place the wine cup on the table and lift the mud seal on the wine jar. The rich aroma mixed with astringency came out and lingered between the curtains.

"My condolences to the Kingdom. I am also deeply saddened by Wang Sima's death." Pei Jiaoran's eyes were filled with sadness and he sighed: "Wang Sima had made great contributions to the country before, how could his past achievements be wiped out just because he did something wrong? "

As she spoke, Pei Jiaoran raised her hand and wiped the corners of her eyes with her sleeves, with tears in her eyes.

Looking at Pei Jiaoran who looked sad in front of him, Mr. Wang Guo's eyes were full of contempt.

"Pei Shangshu doesn't have to be like this. The war broke out suddenly, but the people's wisdom is lacking. Your Majesty was deceived by traitors and mistakenly demoted my son. It is reasonable. If you are experiencing another misfortune now, I am afraid that it was deliberately done by someone with good intentions." Wang Guo Lao looked at him. Pei Jiaoran in front of me said, "I am worried that the traitors will continue to cause trouble in the court."

After taking a sip of wine, Pei Jiaoran raised his eyebrows. This kingdom always wanted to use her hand to rehabilitate Wang Yu and make his death more valuable. But this is equivalent to saying that His Majesty is at fault, and he is also at fault.

After thinking for a while, Pei Jiaoran said: "Wang Sima proposed the increase in money and the reduction of troops. Don't forget the reason because of temporary sadness. What's more, I don't dare to say the emperor's fault. But Don’t worry, Mr. Wang Guo. I ordered the Lantian County Magistrate to send soldiers to search for the whereabouts of the bandits. I will definitely give you an explanation."

The last sentence changed the tone of the argument between the two parties to another level. Wang Yu's death is not that important to the current situation. The Wang family's choice is what all parties are looking forward to.

Mr. Wang Guo took a look at Pei Jiaoran. What she said was clearly telling him that Wang Yu's death did not need to be pursued excessively. Because he did do those things, it is normal to be hated by others. The deeper meaning is that this matter seems to have come from His Majesty's instructions.

Thinking of the news he had learned in Tongzhou, Mr. Wang Guo whispered, "Shang Shu Pei is really clever. In the past, you took advantage of the Quan family's grief over the loss of a son and accused Quan Dehui of an unwarranted crime. And. In order to save the family, the Quan family, under your coaxing, endured their anger and had no choice but to cooperate with you. Now they are doing the same thing again? "

Knowing that Wang Guo Lao was here, he conducted an investigation into his actions when he was in power in Tongzhou. Pei Jiaoran did not hide anything and said bluntly: "The evidence is conclusive that Quan Dehui colluded with the refugees to murder someone. The court has given the greatest favor to the Quan family by not pursuing the case, not to mention that the Quan family made the right choice."
