The snake's tongue spit out silently, and its colorful scales kept climbing up in Gu Yuan's palm. Just as it was about to touch Pei Chun's cloak, he grabbed the snake's head.

Gu Yuan's face darkened and he casually threw away Xiaohong who was disturbing his monopoly on the cloak.

The next day.

After dinner, Pei Chun specifically asked her mother to let her sleep in Jingyuan.

She is going to sneak out tonight and go to Pei Mansion!

So I absolutely cannot rest with my mother.

The princess looked at Pei Chun, with a warning on her dignified face: "Ming Cheng..."

Pei Chun smiled, revealing his big white teeth, and said confidently: "I know mother, I will never act rashly!"

The princess looked at Pei Chun suspiciously for a long while, then shook her head helplessly without saying anything more.

It’s nightfall in Jingyuan.

Pei Chun changed into a dark nightgown, tightened his wrists where the flying knives and bamboo sticks were hidden, and everything was ready.

Make sure all the new maids who are cleaning the house have left.

Then he blew out the candle, put on the mask, and opened the door.

She opened the gate of Jingyuan very quietly and stealthily.

Looking down, he saw a shadow. Pei Chun: "..."

She slowly raised her head with a stiff smile, and saw that her eldest brother was indeed standing in the yard.

And he was wearing a dark nightgown...

It looked like he had been waiting for her for a long time.

Pei Chun looked around, trying to find a way to escape Pei Qing's pursuit and escape from the mansion: "..."

She must have pushed the wrong door.

Pei Qing narrowed his eyes: "Humph, I knew it, Pei Mingcheng, ah Pei Mingcheng, I knew you wouldn't be able to stay still!"

Pei Chun felt as guilty as a little mouse caught stealing oil. He put on a smile but looked uncertain.

Thinking that Pei Qing had already changed into night clothes, he slapped his thigh, turned his eyes and smiled in a fawning manner.

He ran to his eldest brother and said, "Hey, brother, now that you've changed into these clothes, let's go together. Just think of it as accompanying me!"

Pei Qing sighed, looking at his silly sister's eight neatly arranged teeth. He couldn't help himself and reached out his hand to knock hard on his silly sister's forehead.

Thinking of my mother's instructions just now, I felt helpless.

Mother obviously knew it a long time ago that her silly sister would not be able to keep quiet today.

He knows it too.

But he wanted to persuade his sister to stay at home and avoid going out and causing trouble.

But he didn't expect that his mother would ask him to follow his sister personally and stop her from being impulsive!

Pei Qing sighed. Mother is really...

Knowing that this bear was going to make some trouble no matter what, the mother did not forcefully stop him, nor did she explain the pros and cons. She just let him go along to provide protection.

He deserves it!

Tsk, this bear is always looking for trouble. Why doesn't mother punish him like she did when he was young, and also punish this hateful Pei Mingcheng!

She is really too spoiled!

Thinking of his mother's blatant favoritism and doting, Pei Qing had no good words for Pei Chun, and only said with a dark face: "Let's go!"

Pei Chun immediately smiled, and his smile became even bigger.

He skipped and danced behind his brother in the Princess's Mansion, where the snow had already been cleared.

When he arrived at the place, Pei Chun looked up at the high wall in front of him, took a deep breath and raised his legs, found a leverage point, and jumped over the wall in two steps.

Pei Qing behind him also flew up, looking even more agile than Pei Chun.

In fact, the princess knew that with Pei Chun's personality, he would never let go of his obsession easily unless he went to vent his anger in person.

It is better to unblock than to block.

Otherwise, Pei Chun would become unstable in the future because of holding it in, and would make mistakes in his impatience and leave room for others to use him as an excuse.

It would be better to let her go out and make a fuss herself. As for how to handle the current situation - we still have our eldest son Pei Qing.

Pei Qing, the tool man, also knew what the princess was thinking. Although he knew it, he still couldn't help but feel a headache.

He had no idea how he raised this stupid sister of his, but he always felt that she was too rebellious.

The key is that my mother always indulges me.

When it comes to disciplining the child, they ask their father to come, and one of them plays the good guy, while the other plays the bad guy.

As a result, the younger sister is now a little afraid of her father with a fierce face, but is not afraid of her brothers at all!

It's lawless!

*

The two of them walked very fast all the way, running non-stop.

Until the corner gate of the backyard of Pei’s main house.

This is usually used by servants when they go out.

Looking at the cleaned path, Pei Chun did not hesitate and went straight over the corner gate, being careful not to leave any footprints.

Thinking carefully about the layout of the Pei Mansion that she had accidentally seen in her previous life, she slowed down her breathing and walked along the stone road that was still dotted with snowflakes, heading straight for the backyard.

Pei Qing behind him narrowed his eyes as he felt something was wrong. How come his sister knew so much about the situation in the Pei Mansion?

Something's wrong!

Could it be that he had some conflict with Pei Lin before?

Otherwise, why would he be so proficient and not seem unfamiliar with the Pei Mansion at all?

Along the way, the brother and sister would occasionally meet many tall and strong guards who were patrolling the mansion with lanterns.

This made Pei Chun curl his lips. He made a gesture to Pei Qing behind him and turned around to hide.

He wondered in his heart what kind of people were in this house. Pei Zhong, a third-rank official, had more guards than those in the princess's mansion.

Turning a small path, Pei Chun turned around and walked towards Pei Lin's yard as if he was strolling in his own garden.

Looking at the brightly lit courtyard in front of him, Pei Chun frowned.

Who is it that is still awake in the middle of the night?

Hearing the faint sound of crying coming from inside, Pei Chun glanced at the roof and flew up without thinking.

The movement was so gentle that even the snowflakes on the top didn't fall off.

Pei Qing followed closely behind.

Pei Chun lay on the roof, and did not rashly lift up the tiles. Instead, he turned his face to the side and listened to the sounds inside.

There was a sound of crying from inside.

"Wow, Brother Zixun has suffered so much, but you didn't even let me go out to see him! I'm so worried about Brother Zixun."

This voice is definitely Pei Lin!

The maidservant beside Pei Lin spoke to comfort her: "Don't worry, young lady. I asked someone to check on Master Feng today. Master Feng only had an injury on his hand."

Pei Lin sobbed, "Hands injured? Hands are so important to scholars!

The Spring Examination will be held next spring. What should I do if Brother Zixun’s hand is not in good condition by then?

Brother Zixun wants the position so badly, if he loses the chance to take the imperial examination, how upset will he be?!"

Pei Chun laid his cheek on the snow and raised his eyebrows in boredom. Tsk, this guy is such a lovesick person.

Pei Qing, who was beside her, patted Pei Chun on the shoulder in a warning gesture, signaling her to be more honest and not make any noise that would arouse suspicion.

My heart kept sinking.

As for Shaoyao, he had heard the whole story from her own mouth. If he still insisted, he could say that Shaoyao was bewitched by others to slander Feng Huan.

But now listening to Pei Lin's words again, the evidence from both sides clearly proves that Feng Huan has been nailed to the ground.

Or, this is another side of Feng Huan...

Who would believe that Feng Huan had no hand in the matter between my sister and Gu Yuan?

"Don't worry, young lady. Even if Master Feng cannot participate in the Spring Examination, he still has the Princess and Duke Xin to help him.

All of Duke Xin's children have held official positions.

If he could win the battle this time, he would definitely use the military merit to help his daughter, Miss Pei Liu, find a good marriage.

Or he could ask for a good official position for Mr. Feng.

Don't worry, Miss. Master Feng will not suffer any loss."

On the roof, Pei Chun's eyes suddenly turned cold and she slowly clenched her fists. She couldn't bear to hear anyone coveting the power of the Pei family.

Now Pei Lin was really jumping around on her sore spot, making her wish she could kick the tiles to pieces and fall down to teach Pei Lin a lesson!

Pei Qing also held his breath, stretched out his hand and subconsciously grabbed his stupid sister.

So, Miss Pei had planned this for Feng Huan? Even a maid knew about it...

Or did Feng Huan express this to Pei Lin on purpose?

They had grown up together many years ago, and until yesterday he still thought that he and Feng Huan were the best of brothers.

Closer than brothers.

But... now, the facts are before his eyes, how can he not be angry!

Feng Huan, Feng Zixun...

“I really hope that Duke Xin will use his military merits to buy Brother Zixun a position as an assistant minister, just like Pei Qing.

By then, Brother Zixun will be able to marry me with confidence."

"Yes, Miss, if Pei Qing could rely on the Princess's Mansion to become the Minister, then our Master Feng can certainly do the same.

Isn’t it just a little military achievement of Duke Xin?

They had plenty of that stuff in the Princess's Mansion, but they were just being stingy and unwilling to give it to Master Feng.

Now, if Pei Chun lost her virginity and got married early, the military merit would definitely belong to Master Feng.

When the time comes, Master Feng will realize his long-cherished wish and will certainly break away from Pei Chun who is pestering him and turn around to marry you."

Pei Lin's sobbing below gradually stopped.
