Thinking

Su Di sat in the room, looked down at a certain place on the table, his expression was unclear.

The house was silent.

Qi Si and Xiao Zhi looked at each other, and Qi Si said, "Your Majesty."

Emperor Su raised his hand and picked up a booklet on the table, which was handed over by Mrs. Pei, reporting the progress of the case in the past few days.

All the servants in the house were sent down, Qi Si and Xiao Zhi stood opposite to Emperor Su, the faint morning light shone through the window sash, and the room was covered with a thin layer of silver light.

Emperor Su raised his hand and threw the folder on the ground. The fine brocade cover knocked against the threshold, creating a crack. The paper was "stabbed" and torn to pieces, and Pei Nanxian's handwriting was scattered all over the floor.

Qi Si and Xiao Zhi were shrouded in the power of his outburst of anger, and stood there, bowing their heads in silence.

Emperor Su's voice was low and calm, but the undercurrent was surging with anger: "It's a good job to change the prison."

Qi Si said: "Your Majesty don't need to be too angry, the body is the most important thing."

Emperor Su said: "Only looking at the old minister's face, to give the Pei family face, there have been a lot of small tricks over the years, so I don't care about it, it actually made them emboldened!"

After a moment of silence in the room, Xiao Zhi asked, "Your Majesty, do you want to investigate?"

Emperor Su waved his hand: "It should be investigated, but don't disturb the Pei family, just take a good look, what good things are they in the prison."

Looking forward to waiting for Emperor Su to be quiet for a while, his anger subsided, and he said: Your Majesty is right, the Pei family cannot move for the time being. "

Emperor Su has calmed down his anger, and now he is calm as usual, but his eyes are still sharper than usual, with one hand on the desk, leaning on the back of the chair, he is majestic, and said lightly: "Apart from the prison, are there other secrets?" ?”

Qi Si nodded: "If the three organs of the prison are changed, the Pei family will feel that the prison is more risky, and the things that were originally placed in it may not be there."

Emperor Su thought for a while, then smiled sarcastically: "That's right, the Three Caves of the Cunning Rabbit has always been like this."

After a while, he said again: "Let them live a good life for a few days. Step by step, we must clean up Pei's house inside and out."

Qi Si and Xiao Zhi agreed to take orders, only then did Qi Si know that Emperor Su had seen clearly the Pei family's careful thinking, he was always very patient, no matter how forbearing the Pei family could be, they were just prey. Sitting on the throne, Emperor Su had a clear view and sharp eyes. He was the only hunter.

Qi Si and Xiao Zhi went out of the palace together, Xiao Zhi said: "The Pei family hides very deeply."

Qi Si looked into the distance, seeming to be in deep thought, but smiled slightly, very confident: "They are very good at calculating, and they are ruthless enough, so they stand tall, but they may also lose on this point."

Xiao Zhi looked at him, smiled lightly and said, "You have grown up."

Qi Si turned his head to look at him, and the two of them looked at each other and smiled, as if a lot of time had passed, and many things silently melted into the river of time without leaving any traces.

Qi Si went to Pei's Shenyingwei Mansion again. The poison in King Rong had an antidote. The mansion has been rectified, but Pei's shadow guard was sent out to handle errands today, and his capable elites are somewhat insufficient.

Qi Si sat down and looked at him: "Uncle, don't worry too much, since this incident happened, no one would dare to make trouble now."

Pei Nanxian shook his head, his snake-like expression added to his coldness: "The person who broke in last time couldn't find any traces, it's very troublesome these days."

Qi Si comforted him: "There must be a way for the car to reach the mountain. When Jiang Xuan comes back, King Rong's poison will be cured. Once His Majesty is in a good mood, everything will go smoothly."

Pei Nanxian looked at him, and could see from his expression that he no longer regarded Qi Si as an outsider, especially when Qi Si was so tactful, and said a lot of good things for the Pei family in front of Emperor Su, he smiled and said: "I have been relying on my little Highness for a while now. care."

Qi Si smiled: "We are all a family, and helping each other is the right way."

Xiao Zhi has never found out what the Pei family's shadow guards have in other places, and he can't stop thinking about where the Pei family will turn them into a substitute for prisons. Only by mastering all the lairs can they guarantee that they will be wiped out at the end.

Xiao Zhi said: "The change of the prison organization is not a trivial matter, and the Pei family did it so covertly. It should be completed this year. They won't have much energy to prepare for other places."

Qi Si listened thoughtfully: "From this point of view, the Pei family's private actions should not exceed the scope of Changyu City."

Qisi is not busy these days, he often goes to see Emperor Su in the palace, and also visits King Rong, and Emperor Su will feel more at ease when he sees Qi Si.Sometimes he would walk around in front of Pei Nanxian and Pei Xin to appease them.

The rest of the time, either in the academy or back to the mansion to take care of Jiang Xuan, both Jiang Xuan and King Rong were in a coma, King Rong volunteered to help Qisi and Emperor Su, and Jiang Xuan did the same, half of it was to help his friend Jisi Half of it was out of a sense of responsibility and Jiang Xunyan's instruction, and Qi Si silently remembered their efforts in his heart.Friends are rare, like-minded friends who are willing to take risks together are a blessing to Xiulai.

Seeing that Qi Si was very calm and composed, Jiang Xunyan smiled and said, "What are you waiting for?"

Qi Si also smiled: "Wait for someone who cares."

Counting the days, Yuan Feng will return from Beizong of Lieshan soon. In the early morning of this day, Changyu City was covered with snow at night, and a carriage drove to the Prime Minister's mansion in a low-key manner, and stopped at the side gate.

The butler hastily delivered a message, Qi Si was not wearing a big cloak, but was wearing a light blue brocade robe, and stepped on the snow all the way around the courtyard corridor, and when he arrived outside the west courtyard, he got on and off the carriage. , was hurrying in with the servants, and the two happened to meet head-on.

With slender jade hands, she pushed the hat of the cloak behind her temples. Pei Ruan'er had a beautiful face, her eyes were reddish, and she looked complicated and excited. She stepped forward and took Qi Si's hand: "Good boy."

Qi Si was also a little excited, helped Pei Ruan'er into the living room, and poured hot tea for her personally: "Your aunt has worked hard, it's snowing all the way."

Pei Ruan'er was holding the hot tea, looking at her incessantly, she seemed extremely relieved, but at the same time extremely sad, the thin layer of tears in her beautiful eyes never faded: "It's you who suffer...I've thought about it for a long time, Years ago, I was far away from Changyu, and every time I came back, I would have nightmares..."

Qi Si sat down next to her, her gentle and bright eyes seemed to have a kind of strength, comforting Pei Ruan'er: "My aunt is different, I knew at the first sight that you are different from uncle and them."

Pei Ruan'er shook her head and said, "What's the use of being different, the Pei family can't tolerate such a person."

After a while, Pei Ruan'er looked a little dignified, and looked at Qi Si: "You are not an ordinary person, I can tell at the first glance... You must have something to do when you come back to find Pei's family. …They have no heart, and they don’t understand the human heart, so they can’t see it.”

Qi Si did not avoid her gaze, and nodded calmly: "I think, I am very similar to my mother, and my aunt understands me."

Pei Ruan'er sighed, and looked at Qi Si sadly: "You are more like Sister Feng Jin."

Qi Si's heart suddenly trembled, Pei Ruan'er had a delicate mind and a pure heart, but she could always see the truth.

He smiled: "I know my aunt is on my side."

Pei Ruan'er took a deep breath and choked up a little: "The Pei family's crimes are too deep, there will be a day sooner or later, but I didn't expect that you are the one who did this—this is the reincarnation of heaven."

Qi Si's expression was solemn: "Auntie understands righteousness well, this time I will rely on Auntie's decision."

Pei Ruan'er reached out and shook Qi Si's hand, with a sad yet firm expression: "The Pei family has a book called 'Night Watch'."

Qi Si raised his eyes and saw that all the servants in the hall had been dismissed, the charcoal fire in the room was warm and orange red was silent.

"Night Watch" is the account book of the Pei family, not only the Shenyingwei, but also the account of the Pei family itself.

What is recorded in the account is not money in and out, but human life.All the people the Pei family killed were recorded on it.

Since it is the account of the dead, the death of a person is like a lamp being extinguished, and one sleeps forever at night. This account is called "night watch".

"Although I intend to alienate the Pei family, my father is with my uncle after all. He will always tell me what the Pei family is doing on purpose. It is probably for the sake of any future changes. I can have some chips in my hand—but I can't forgive him, I can't forgive the Pei family."

Pei Ruan'er's husband was very kind to her, they hit it off, and fortunately, the person she married did not conflict with the Pei family's interests.

But the pain that the Pei family brought to Pei Ruan'er still enveloped her.

Neither of them said anything, but Qi Si knew that Pei Ruan'er must know something about Pei Xin's order to kill her two daughters.

Pei Ruan'er insisted on going back immediately, but Qi Si didn't stop her. She watched the carriage turn back the same way and disappear at the corner of the street. The wheels left marks on the snow on the street. The people in Changyu City were just waking up at this time, and the winter sun shone on the icy edges flashing.

Arriving at Jiang Xuan's room as usual, Qi Si fed a heart-protecting pill to the drowsy Jiang Xuan, and sat beside the desk in the house, meditating, when the door opened, Yuan Biao's tall and slender figure engulfed the fresh air outside the house , dressed in strong clothes, strode in.

Qi Si looked up and saw him, stood up to meet him, a faint smile appeared on Yuan Bing's handsome face, he hugged Qi Si into his arms, Qi Si's breath was full of ice and snow on his body, and said with a smile: "It's better than I expected. Come back early."

Yuan Feng kissed Qi Sifa's top, smiled and said, "It's thanks to Fei Guang."

Yuan Feng didn't delay, Jisi took the medicine, gave it to Jiang Xuan, summoned the powerful servants in the mansion, let them take care of it carefully, and immediately went to the palace to deliver the medicine to King Rong.

Lieshan Beizong's top masters gathered, and Xiaotianzong is the door of poisonous Gu. The antidote works quickly. Jiang Xuan and King Rong can fully recover after a few days of rest. Emperor Su's mood is much better, and the courtiers have relaxed. tone.

Naturally, Jiang Xunyan also felt sorry for Jiang Xuan. Jiang Xuan was fine, so he continued to work at ease, but Jiang Xuan didn't care much: "It's been a few days since I woke up from sleep. This is really the first time."

Qi Si only allowed him to take care of his body, and it was inconvenient for Jiang Xuan and Yuan Feng to intervene in the next matter.

In the past few days, Qisi has been sleeping poorly. I don't know if he is worried about Jiang Xuan and King Rong, or if he has come to this point, there is really no turning back, so he can't help thinking about it in his dreams.

Seeing him haggard after seeing him for a few days, this was unprecedented. In the evening, he took Qi Si back to the official post, and asked him to change his environment and stop thinking about those things all day long.

At night, when Qisi changed places, he suddenly couldn't fall asleep even more. Without disturbing the servants, he got up and lit the lamp, took a book of poetry, and sat on the edge of the couch in his outer robe, flipping through it.

Yuan Feng was next door, but he knocked on the door and came in after a while. Seeing him coming, Qi Si asked, "Are you not asleep?"

"My subordinates told me that you woke up after falling asleep, so I'll come and take a look." Yuan Feng pulled out the Book of Songs in his hand and put it aside, hugged Qi Si back to lie down, "I guess you haven't slept well these days .”
