The waning moon is cold and silent, the clouds are pale and the stars are sparse. After leaving the restaurant, the two walked side by side. Li Xiujing held Pei Jiaoran's hand. The moonlight cast their figures on the snow, and their footprints on the snow could be seen under the moonlight.

The bells and drums have stopped, and the number of pedestrians on the road has gradually decreased.

"So you wandered around the market and realized that if the Li family only relied on the shadow of the door, they would not be able to survive. So you chose to become an official through martial arts and make achievements?" Pei Jiaoran raised the tip of his lips with a hint of curvature.

"Being for the Li family is one thing, but the more important thing is the situation in Nanya at that time. Even if I became an official, I would still control others." Li Xiujing seemed to have remembered something, "Lu Zheng and Yuan Yanchong are the best." example."

Pei Jiaoran was stunned when he heard Li Xiujing mention these two people. These two people are indeed the best examples. One is a descendant of the Lu family of Wu County in the Southern Dynasties, and the other is a descendant of the Yuan and Wei Dynasties. Although they were once prominent, they could only be at the bottom of Chang'an. They all have shackles on them, and these shackles mean that they must be tied to Nanya.

Lifting her eyes to look at him, Pei Jiaoran said in a soft voice, "But Erlang, all the passion you had when you were young has turned into dust and smoke."

"When I was young, I had passion, and I felt that I would serve the country as a general. But as I grew older, I realized that even though I had passion in my heart, I couldn't stop the selfish calculations of all parties. There are some things where force alone is useless. The blood in your heart can also be transformed into other things." Li Xiujing's voice was cold and cold.

Pei Jiaoran chuckled softly.

Li Xiujing frowned upon hearing this. He didn't know if she was agreeing with his thoughts or laughing at his naivety. The bright moonlight covered the two of them, and the snow fell like broken jade. The dark patterns on Pei Jiaoran's purple robe have moonlight flowing through them, reflecting the appearance of flowers.

Seeing that he was about to arrive at Pei's house, Li Xiujing unconsciously approached Pei Jiaoran and looked at her quietly. His lips and teeth moved, as if he had something to say. The sound of the beating heart was clearly audible in the silent night.

"Jiajia." Li Xiujing finally blurted out Pei Jiaoran's name. Although Tianhan breathed out white air as soon as he opened his mouth, he felt warm.

"I'm here." Pei Jiaoran responded and looked at him. The lace of the bun just brushed over Li Xiujing's face. Li Xiujing felt that his heart was getting more and more confused. He wanted to firmly integrate the moon in front of him into his bones and blood. And her pair of deep beady pupils just caught the moon, making the mole at the end of her eye bright red. She walked into his heart together with the moonlight, illuminating the desolate place.

The two of them stood side by side at the entrance of the alley. As soon as he raised his eyes, he could see Pei's house in the distance. Two lanterns hung at the door, swaying gently in the wind.

"Jiajia, I think..." Li Xiujing looked at Pei Jiaoran and hesitated to speak. However, his lips came to her ear.

As if he didn't expect Li Xiujing to be like this, Pei Jiaoran couldn't help but feel the heat in his ears spreading to his limbs. Intrigued by love, she lowered her eyes. Thinking of the strange dream he once had, it was him complaining about himself in front of Emperor Wei. The powerful heartbeat from the left side reached her ears, as if to remind her. It was she who agreed to let Li Xiujing get close to her heart.

Yes. She chooses the path herself, and she chooses the people herself. And it seemed that no one except Li Xiujing could easily get close to her heart.

"What are you thinking about?" Pei Jiaoran raised his eyes and asked softly.

Looking at her, Li Xiujing was about to speak. Suddenly a scream came from the dark alley, and the two of them separated instantly, looking in the direction of the source of the sound.

"Let's go and see it together."

The two chased in the direction of the source of the sound. I saw a girl in blue clutching her belly and falling in the snow, and a girl in a white skirt squatted beside her. And there were several Wuhou surrounding him.

Wu Hou, who was standing at the outermost edge, saw the two of them with sharp eyes. He quickly came forward and said, "Shang Shu Pei, General Li. These two ladies were walking on the road and were attacked. The murderer has now escaped."

Li Xiujing frowned and said nothing, but Pei Jiaoran walked around the Marquis Wu in front of him and walked towards the two girls.

"Bifei?" Pei Jiaoran knelt down and called.

"Young lady, here you are, it was Sister Pang who blocked the sword for me." Hearing Pei Jiaoran's voice, the lady in the moon-white skirt jumped into her arms.

"It's okay, I'm here." As he said this, Pei Jiaoran comforted Bi Fei and looked at Pang Xiyin who was lying on the ground. "I'd like to ask you two Wuhous to send someone to help me fetch a doctor. General Li, help Mrs. Pang get up with me." .”

"Here." said the leader, Marquis Wu.

After hearing Pei Jiaoran's words, the Wuhous consciously made way for them. He also hurriedly sent people to ask for the doctor and went to Pei's house to rescue people.

"Don't worry, Pei Shangshu, I'm fine." Pang Xiyin was supported by the two men, his face pale.

"Treat the injury first." Pei Jiaoran said in a deep voice.

Fortunately, the place where the incident occurred was not far from Pei's house. Zhao Mingluan, Zhou Mancao and the Wang sisters, who came back earlier than them, heard the movement at the door and hurriedly came up to help. So Li Xiujing was naturally replaced.

Everyone helped Pang Xiyin lie down. He boiled water, prepared clean clothes, prepared scissors and gauze and other items, just waiting for the doctor to come.

Instructing Zhao Mingluan and others to take good care of Pang Xiyin, Pei Jiaoran waved to Bi Fei and her to come out.

After leaving the room, Bi Fei sobbed softly. With a look of annoyance on his face, "The girl blamed me for being playful and pulled Sister Pang to play one more time. Then..."

"Bifei, this matter has nothing to do with you." Pei Jiaoran raised his eyes and looked at Li Xiujing who was standing under the verandah, and said in a calm tone, "This matter is for me."

Listening to her voice, Li Xiujing looked over.

"In this case, wouldn't the girl be in danger?" Bi Fei stopped crying and looked worried.

Pei Jiaoran smiled meaninglessly, "I have touched so many interests of others. If those people can still sit still, then I really want to praise him."

While the two were talking, there was a knock on the door.

"The doctor should be here, I'll go take a look."

Not long. Bi Fei hurried over with a female doctor.

"Thank you for your hard work. As long as she can be cured, no matter how much money is spent, it doesn't matter." Pei Jiaoran cupped his hands and smiled.

"We'll talk about the money later. I'll save people first." After that, the female doctor followed Bi Fei into the house.

Pei Jiaoran looked back at the figure cast on the window, closed his eyes and sighed. Suddenly he bent down to pick up the stones that fell on the ground and threw them into the distant pool. The jackdaws that were originally perched on the trees were frightened by the sound and flew away.

"You seem to know whose handiwork it is?" Li Xiujing saw that Pei Jiaoran was only wearing a thin purple robe, so he took off his fur coat and put it on her, "Is it Jia Gonglu, Zhang Rang. Or maybe it's the remnants of Dugu Bo. "

Hearing this, Pei Jiaoran shook his head. Although Jia Gonglu and Zhang Rang didn't like her, they would not do anything stupid to assassinate her. After all, she is now favored by the emperor and holds an important position. If he really killed her, the emperor would definitely pursue the murderer. Even if they wanted to take action, they would attack her, not Bi Fei. "I look like the one from western Zhejiang."

Her attitude towards feudal towns has always been to not tolerate them, and it is best to fight whenever possible. Almost all the decrees she implemented were for the benefit of the court and the local area, so it was better to put them in one town. But if it were to be completely implemented in all walks of life in the world, it would affect the interests of the Jiedushi envoys and governors. Those who are determined to be attached to the imperial court naturally dare not do anything, but what about those who do not want to be attached to the imperial court? I wish she would die.

The bamboo bushes not far away were blown fiercely by the wind, like a giant beast with teeth and claws. Creeping in the dark, stretching out its sharp claws and staring greedily at everyone who passes by. It seems that as long as it opens its mouth and lifts its claws, it can tear people apart and engulf them.

The waning moon was also covered by the dense clouds that came quietly, and the surrounding area was plunged into pure darkness. Pei Jiaoran lowered his eyes and said coldly. She was not afraid of the cold arrows shot around her. After all, interests were never tied to only one party. She smashed other people's card tables. It is also appropriate for others to rise up and resist. But breaking the rules is another matter.

"Jiajia, what are we going to do?" Li Xiujing asked, holding Pei Jiaoran's hand.

"Then it will make this matter more serious. The court will have more reasons to take action, and the name change is justifiable." Pei Jiaoran suddenly laughed, "I will add more fuel to the fire."
