Rebirth of Naihe Junwan

Pei Huaiwen walked along the path to the courtyard. There were only dilapidated lotus leaves left in the flower pond, and the fish in the pond also looked listless. He looked towards the courtyard to the west in a strange way.That was the place where Qi Yun used to live, it was full of plum blossoms and apricot blossoms, but now it is very lonely, there are only a few scattered leaves on the empty branches, it is late autumn.

In this Qi mansion, there is really no need for a maid to lead her to find the way, Pei Huaiwen smiled wryly in his heart.He just waved back a maid who was leading the way, and only led Chang Ning along the road.I also found out from Pei Ruo that after Qi Yun's death, those maidservants were transferred to the old lady's side. As for Lu Qi, she disappeared inexplicably after his death that year, and the old lady lied that she had died suddenly in order not to cause disturbance. .

It's a good thing he didn't get married, otherwise the girl left behind would be pitiful.However, there was a family who was engaged to him, and the girl didn't know what to do now, but she found a good marriage.Pei Huaiwen thought in his heart, but the speed under his feet did not decrease. The evening wind was a bit chilly, so Chang Ning put the fur on Pei Huaiwen's body.

Suddenly, Pei Huaiwen's footsteps stopped.He heard voices that seemed to be there, and he glanced at Chang Ning.Chang Ning approached the stone wall knowingly, then turned around and mouthed to Pei Huaiwen: "Third Prince."

Pei Huaiwen's heart froze, he walked over gently, looked in from the gap in the stone wall, and he saw an elegant figure of a man, and the person standing opposite the third prince was dressed in black clothes, it was Qi Huan.

I saw the two whispering something, the Third Prince still had a gentle smile on his face, while Qi Huan's expression was a little serious and hesitant.It seemed that Pei Huaiwen came a bit late, the two of them were almost finished, the third prince only smiled at Qi Huan and walked away.Pei Huaiwen looked at Qi Huan for a while, and was about to leave quietly, but he heard a cold voice again.

"Second Brother, did you meet the Third Prince just now?" The elegant female voice was Qi Ruoshui's Fourth Miss Qi.

So Pei Huaiwen stopped, only to hear Qi Huan reply: "Fourth Sister? What are you doing here?"

"The emperor's carriage has arrived, isn't your master coming out to greet him?"

"The emperor is here?" Qi Huan immediately straightened his expression, turned around and wanted to go to the main hall.But was blocked by Qi Ruoshui again, Qi Ruoshui said: "What are you talking about with the third prince?"

"Fourth sister, this is not something you can get involved in."

"What a joke! Eldest brother died in the third prince's mansion, I can't get involved, can't I get involved even if you are on good terms with the murderer?!"

"Fourth Sister!" Qi Huan's expression suddenly became serious, "Some things can't be said indiscriminately!" Looking at Qi Ruoshui's red eyes, he slowed down his tone again: "Second brother knows that you are sad, but you also know that, You can’t blame the third prince for the death of the eldest brother. You, a girl, don’t ask too much about these things, the affairs of the court are treacherous and changeable, and the second brother is only protecting the Qi’s mansion.”

Qi Ruoshui didn't speak anymore, she looked at Qi Huanyuan's back, and suddenly showed a mocking sneer.The servant girl beside her asked worriedly in a low voice: "Miss, shall we go back to the room?"

"What's the answer? Don't I have to go to the courtyard to entertain guests? Aren't my parents going to see if there is a suitable candidate to marry me at this banquet?" Qi Ruoshui said lightly, talking to herself Lifetime events are actually a look of indifference.

"Miss, you should worry about this marriage. The master and madam are also kind, and the young lady has reached her age."

This servant girl has been with Qi Ruoshui for some years, Qi Ruoshui didn't say anything after listening to the persuasion, she just sighed, "I'm just... just a little unwilling."

"Aya, my brother said that he would choose the best husband's family for me, he would comb my hair, and carry me into the sedan chair on his back. I can't see any of these..." Brother, how could he die? Well, his martial arts are so powerful.Actually, I don’t know, Aya, the emperor has been reducing the power of the great family, do you think it’s the emperor—”

"Miss! Let's go!" Seeing her young lady's bold words, Qing Ya's heart almost jumped out.

The figures of the two went away, and Pei Huaiwen stood where he was, with a complicated heart.On the one hand, there is distress for Qi Ruoshui, and on the other hand, he is shocked by the development of the situation.Even Qi Ruoshui said that the third prince was a murderer, but in his heart he suspected that it was the emperor!

Thinking about Liang Jingyun again, Pei Huaiwen couldn't help feeling a little sympathetic.After Liang Jingyun came to power, he had indeed weakened the powerful and noble families, and then he reused the children of the poor. Now the aristocratic families in Kyoto are trembling, for fear that one day it will be their turn.In this situation, Qi Ruoshui was right to doubt the emperor. Perhaps many people thought that the emperor did it to take away the power of the Qi family.

"Brother Pei?" There was a sudden voice behind him, with some hesitation.

Pei Huaiwen turned around, and saw Jiang Zhiming walking over with a few strides, with a smile on his face, "I thought I had misidentified the person, but it turned out to be you."

Pei Huaiwen also smiled, "I heard that the emperor is here?"

"En," Jiang Zhiming shook his fan, but his eyes were indifferent, as if he didn't care. "Just before arriving at the mansion, the Qi family should be entertaining the emperor now."

"You won't go? Your father will be angry."

"I'm not used to being serious," Jiang Zhiming grinned, "I'll be scolded at most when I go home. You also know that the emperor doesn't really care about these etiquettes. It doesn't matter if I'm here or not."

Pei Huaiwen laughed.It is true that Liang Jingyun doesn't care about common etiquette, but it is precisely because of this that no one knows what his taboos are, which makes people even more frightened, not knowing how not to offend him.I heard that Liang Jingyun has become more moody recently, smiling at one moment and ordering the house to be searched the next.A companion is like a tiger, so this dinner will probably be restrained.

"Come on, let's go back to the front yard."

When the banquet was in full swing, the emperor came and shocked everyone. The people in the Qi residence did not expect the emperor to come. Qi Jing and his wife hurriedly knelt down to greet them. After Liang Jingyun entered the banquet, the lively voices around disappeared. Now that it's time for theatrical performances, everyone is watching the play quietly, but it doesn't make any difference.

In fact, Liang Jingyun only came here once on a whim. He was sitting at the top table, and next to him was a maid from Qi's mansion. She was young and waited carefully. When the wine cup was empty, she filled it up.Qi Huan sat next to the emperor, his face was calm, but his heart was in turmoil.

"I heard that your younger sister's wedding is going to happen?"

Qi Huan hurriedly replied: "I'm just looking for it, my sister is stupid, and I haven't found a suitable one yet."

Liang Jingyun smiled, "Sister Ling is pretty good."

After all, she is Qi Yun's beloved sister, and Liang Jingyun is a bit biased, but if it is said that he really cares about Qi Ruoshui, it's not true. It's just that Qi Yun was very concerned about marriage before, so Liang Jingyun naturally hopes to find Qi Ruoshui. a good one.

But when Qi Huan heard this, he became even more frightened, and even turned around whether the emperor had taken a fancy to Ruoshui's desire to accept a concubine.Although Qi Ruoshui's age is not suitable, Liang Jingyun has never been a person who plays by the rules.

After Liang Jingyun mentioned something, he lost interest. He glanced around casually, paused for a moment on Pei Ling's body, and then looked to the side, only seeing Mrs. Pei and Pei Huanyan.That person is not there?Liang Jingyun narrowed his eyes slightly, and told Defu to investigate. The person who was in Beauty Square that day was Pei Huaiwen, the third son of the Pei family.Liang Jingyun didn't pay attention that day, and later found out that the woman playing the piano was the signature wonderful voice of Beauty Square, and Pei Huaiwen, who had always been lingering on the sick bed, was able to get her to sing alone, I'm afraid it was not easy.

When it comes to Liang Jingyun's own doubts, his interest in Pei Huaiwen is growing day by day.This may be the reason for coming to Qi's mansion today.Liang Jingyun took a sip from his wine glass, and suddenly saw a trace of excitement flashing across Pei Huanyan's face, and when he looked closely, he saw a figure appearing from the dark tree shadow under the lamp, right next to Pei Huanyan, Pei Huanyan yelled happily, the figure paused, and then patted Pei Huanyan's head.

When the man sat beside Pei Huanyan, the warm yellow light illuminated the man's fair face, Liang Jingyun saw that clear face, his lips were slightly drawn, and he dared to be late in front of the emperor, even though he It's true that you don't care about these vulgar etiquette, but it's bold to be upright.

Liang Jingyun was thinking in his heart, but he was not angry at all, but his smile turned cold in the next second.I saw that Pei Huaiwen was talking to Pei Huanyan, and Jiang Zhiming who was beside him also squeezed over, leaning on his shoulder with a smile and saying: "Little brother Pei, look at that girl who plays the female role, she has a really good figure."

Pei Huaiwen was afraid that he would teach Pei Huanyan badly, so he quickly reprimanded: "Shut up."

Jiang Zhiming was not afraid of him, he rolled his eyes again, and now he said seriously: "Then look over there."

"What's the matter?" Pei Huaiwen looked suspiciously in the direction of his finger, but met that gaze head-on, the other party seemed to be taken aback, then smiled politely and reservedly.Pei Huaiwen was startled, but did not react.

"That's Miss Qi Si! She's such a beauty. I don't know why but she doesn't want to get married. Brother Pei, what do you say... Brother Pei? Brother Pei! Brother Pei, don't you think you're stupid?"

Pei Huaiwen turned his head and gave Jiang Zhiming a cold look. Jiang Zhiming smiled sarcastically, and then asked cautiously: "You don't really like her, do you?" He asked in a very light tone, slightly surprised Very anxious.It would be troublesome if he really liked it, let's not talk about the wrong family, first of all, the emperor didn't know why he was so concerned about Miss Qi Si's marriage, if Pei Huaiwen was thinking about it, the consequences might not be so good.

Pei Huaiwen smiled angrily, pushed Jiang Zhiming away from him, and rarely cursed, "Get lost, don't talk nonsense."

Jiang Zhiming smiled cooperatively, heaved a sigh of relief, he didn't like it, it's fine if he didn't like it.

The superior Liang Jingyun watched the two fight, and the coldness in his eyes became more and more serious.He looked at Master Jiang sitting down with a half-smile, "Master Jiang, is that Lingzi?"

Mr. Jiang glanced at Jiang Zhiming who was sitting in the shadow of the tree and playing with Pei Huaiwen and Pei Huanyan. Cold sweat broke out, and he was about to kneel down when he trembled. But how could he kneel down at this banquet? His family members gave him a hand, Mr. Jiang came back to his senses, touched Liang Jingyun's cold eyes again, and hurriedly lowered his head and said: "The dog is rude, and the minister deserves death."

"It's so serious," Liang Jingyun shook his head nonchalantly, "Young Master Jiang is now a suave and handsome young man, Master Jiang really has a way of disciplining his son." This is a metaphor that Master Jiang can't teach his son anymore, presumably This time when Jiang Zhiming returns to Mr. Jiang, he has to give him a good lesson.

"What the emperor said is true." Mr. Jiang's trembling appearance made Liang Jingyun feel more and more bored.

Defu has been by Liang Jingyun's side all the time. He is an old man beside Liang Jingyun. None of the servants and even the ministers around him dare to neglect him.Seeing that Liang Jingyun's wine cup was raised to his mouth but he didn't drink it down, he knew that the emperor had something on his mind, so he took a step forward.Sure enough, Liang Jingyun put down his wine glass, thought for a moment, and then told him in a low voice, "Go and tell the third son of the Pei family that I have something to ask him, and tell him to wait by the carriage at the gate of Qi's residence later."

Defu was surprised, but his face remained calm, "Yes, Your Majesty."
