Obviously, Pei Huaiwen was not the only one who recognized Zhang Youling, he also saw a slight surprise in Zhang Youling's eyes, but it disappeared soon, and his face did not change in any way.

He is also a person who adapts to the officialdom and can adapt to changes, Pei Huaiwen thought, it seems that he is not really as young as he was in front of the eldest princess that day.

Liang Jingyun told Zhang Youling a few words about the official affairs and did not let him resign. He only glanced at Pei Huaiwen, and after thinking for a while, Pei Huaiwen knew what he was planning.If it was said that Pei Huaiwen was only hesitant about this marriage before, but now he strongly disagrees. Zhang Youling clearly likes the eldest princess, how can he be assigned to Qi Ruoshui?

But he couldn't say bluntly that the eldest princess's marriage is not something that can be discussed casually, not to mention that the royal family of the Northern Territory is coming soon, and the marriage is still under discussion.

Seeing that Liang Jingyun was about to speak, Pei Huaiwen hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, I want to see the eldest princess first." When he spoke, he glanced at Zhang Youling, but he didn't respond at all. Could it be that Zhang Youling hasn't seen the eldest princess yet? , Didn't know that the woman that day was the eldest princess?

"What are you in such a hurry for?" Liang Jingyun looked at him with displeasure between his brows.

Zhang Youling glanced at Pei Huaiwen thoughtfully at this time, and said, "The eldest princess's body is important, so let's visit her first." He also saw Pei Huaiwen's eyes just now, it was complicated and difficult to distinguish, but what is certain is that he must involved in political affairs.

Liang Jingyun gave Zhang Youling a cold look. Zhang Youling realized that he had overstepped, and hurriedly knelt down to plead guilty.Liang Jingyun's complexion only improved a little, Pei Huaiwen turned his head and met Gu Changan's half-smiling eyes, his heart sank.Maybe he didn't notice it at ordinary times, but at this time, he could see how special and different Liang Jingyun treated him. Liang Jingyun was always tolerant towards him.

At this time, Defu hurried in from the door, knelt down in front of Liang Jingyun with a pale face, "Your Majesty, the eldest princess has passed out."

Although Liang Jingyun's attitude towards Liang Junwan has always been very flat, but in the end he took Liang Junwan to heart, otherwise he would not have allowed Liang Junwan to get close to Pei Huaiwen without saying anything.So upon hearing Defu's words, Liang Jingyun's expression changed immediately and he stood up, took a look at Gu Chang'an, and walked out the door.Gu Changan followed closely behind Liang Jingyun. Liang Junwan was arranged in the side hall next to the imperial study. Liang Jingyun walked quickly while asking Defu.

"Isn't it still good at the beginning? Are those imperial doctors all trash?!"

Defu wiped his sweat, lowered his head and replied: "I don't know why, the eldest princess suddenly passed out, without any warning, the princess was still in good health when the imperial doctor first took the pulse."

Liang Jingyun sneered, and stepped into the inner room, followed by Gu Changan, Pei Huaiwen and Zhang Youling stayed in the outer room to avoid suspicion.As soon as the sound of asking for peace in the room sounded, it was interrupted by Liang Jingyun's suppressed anger voice, only Liang Jingyun's cold voice was heard asking the imperial doctor, and then there was silence.

Pei Huaiwen and Zhang Youling sat in the outer room, and the maids stood quietly aside after pouring tea for them. The atmosphere in the room is very depressing now. Everyone knows that Liang Jingyun has a bad temper and is afraid of being angered.Zhang Youling sipped tea with lowered eyelids and said nothing. Pei Huaiwen was anxious and couldn't go into the inner room, so he just sat and looked at him. After thinking about it, he said, "Master Zhang is here to discuss business today?" Zhang Youling looked up at him, "Yes, Master Pei too?"

Pei Huaiwen smiled, "I wonder how old Mr. Zhang is? Is there a marriage?"

Zhang Youling was startled, "Master Pei, this is..."

"Master Zhang hasn't noticed yet?" Pei Huaiwen whispered, "The purpose of the emperor asking you to come here today."

Zhang Youling thought about it for a moment, and was suddenly startled, "Princess?!"

Pei Huaiwen was silent and sighed helplessly. "No." How could I give you the eldest princess?Pei Huaiwen took a look at Zhang Youling, and the one who could marry the eldest princess had to be a member of a family.Pei Huaiwen dipped his hands in the tea and wrote a Qi character on the table, then wiped it away, only to see Zhang Youling suddenly realized, and his expression suddenly changed.

Pei Huaiwen knew that he was unwilling.

"Master Pei, to tell you the truth, I didn't recognize you that day, but I wonder if it would be convenient for you to tell me some news about the girl next to me? I don't want to do anything, but I really want to see her again. "Zhang Youling said sincerely, he finally waited for a long time for the Lantern Festival that day, and searched the entire lakeside, but he didn't see the woman again.

Zhang Youling knew that he might be very tempted by that woman, although it came out of nowhere, but he couldn't stop it, if the emperor really asked him to marry the third miss of the Qi family, he would not be willing.

Pei Huaiwen gave him a complicated look, and sighed in his heart.Just when he was about to tell Zhang Youling that the woman was the eldest princess, Defu suddenly came out of the inner room and walked towards Pei Huaiwen, "Master Pei! Lord Pei! The eldest princess has woken up and is looking for you."

Pei Huaiwen heaved a sigh of relief, and followed him towards the inner room with a happy face. Zhang Youling looked at his back, pursed his lips, and suddenly had a guess in his heart, which made his back slowly ooze coldness. Empty pain.

When Pei Huaiwen entered the inner room, he saw Gu Changan taking Liang Junwan's pulse. Liang Junwan's cheeks were flushed, obviously a sign of fever, and his forehead was dripping with sweat.Liang Jingyun stood beside him without saying a word, with a stern expression on his face.As soon as Pei Huaiwen appeared in the room, Liang Junwan's eyes lit up, she almost couldn't wait to stretch out her arms, but as if hindered by her status as a princess, Liang Junwan glanced at Liang Jingyun indistinctly, and then said calmly Slowly lowering his arms, he smiled at Pei Huaiwen.

"Hui Wen, come here."

"Princess..." Pei Huaiwen looked at her with some embarrassment. There are outsiders in the room now. As a man with a foreign surname, he shouldn't have entered the princess's inner room. If he was too intimate, some bad rumors would spread.

Liang Jingyun looked at the two of them, and said in silence for a moment: "I'm leaving first, and everyone else is leaving except Lord Pei." He coldly glanced at the imperial physicians and servants around him, "No one would dare to chew their tongues. "

Liang Jingyun took one last look at Liang Junwan, and then led Gu Changan and the others out of the inner room.A large group of people walked into the room, and it suddenly became quiet and empty, and Liang Junwan's weak breathing could be faintly heard.Liang Junwan leaned on the bed, looked at Pei Huaiwen with calm and dependent eyes, it seemed that her illness made her much weaker.

"Why don't you come over?"

Pei Huaiwen looked at her and overlapped with the lively little girl in his mind who loved to laugh and cry when he was sick and took medicine, and his heart felt slightly warm, so he walked a few steps closer to tuck her in the quilt, and said softly: "Now How is it? Feeling okay?"

Liang Junwan smiled and closed his eyes again, "To be honest, I don't feel very good."

Pei Huaiwen's heart tightened, "What's wrong?"

"I feel so tired, so tired that I don't want to get up again."

Pei Huaiwen carefully looked at her symptoms, but the anxiety at first gradually calmed down. It was the same illness as Ruoshui, and she would be fine.Pei Huaiwen breathed a sigh of relief, and comforted: "It will be fine, you will be fine if you listen to Dr. Gu."

"Really?" Liang Junwan asked feebly, looking at Pei Huaiwen with slightly dazed eyes, she blinked, and a few gleams of water flashed in her eyes, "Brother Qi...Brother..."

Pei Huaiwen was stunned, but saw that Liang Junwan had already leaned into his arms, so he could only comfort him gently, Liang Junwan fell asleep after crying for a while, Pei Huaiwen settled her down, but saw that her forehead started to sweat again, and couldn't help but frowned. Frowning, he lifted his foot and walked outside.

As soon as he walked out of the inner room, he didn't see Zhang Youling who was sitting, but he saw Gu Changan, who was obviously waiting for Pei Huaiwen.Pei Huaiwen looked at him and asked, "Where's the emperor?"

"Going to discuss important matters with Mr. Zhang." Gu Changan said calmly without leaving Pei Huaiwen's eyes.

"Chang'an, hurry up and prescribe the prescription. The eldest princess fell ill too quickly this time, and the situation is not good."

Gu Changan looked at him and shook his head slowly.Pei Huaiwen was puzzled, "What's wrong?"

"I can't," Gu Changan lowered his eyelids, "I have never seen the eldest princess's illness, so I can't prescribe a prescription. I have asked the emperor to find someone else."

Pei Huaiwen opened his eyes wide, "What are you talking about?"

"Don't understand?" Gu Changan's face suddenly turned cold, and he approached him a few steps, "I can't do it!"

Pei Huaiwen suddenly burst into anger, grabbed Gu Changan's collar fiercely, and said coldly: "What nonsense are you talking about! What do you mean you have never seen this kind of disease? What do you mean you can't do it? Liang Jingyun Will you believe your nonsense?!"

"Why doesn't the emperor believe me?"

Pei Huaiwen was startled, and suddenly thought that Liang Jingyun didn't know about Qi Ruoshui's illness back then, so Liang Jingyun wouldn't know even if the eldest princess suffers from the same illness now.He looked at Gu Chang'an with a cold face, and couldn't help feeling anxious, "Gu Chang'an, what are you thinking?!"

"What am I thinking?" Gu Changan looked at him, then suddenly lowered his head and laughed out loud, his voice was suppressed and gloomy, "Then what are you thinking about? Qi Yun."

A dead silence.

The collar was slowly loosened. Gu Changan looked at Pei Huaiwen whose expression changed and took a step back, stretched out his hand and grabbed his arm firmly, fixed his eyes on his eyes, and said word by word: "Four years, Qi Yun, it's been four years."

"Are you planning to hide it from me forever?"

Pei Huaiwen's face slowly turned pale, his lips trembled slightly, but he was speechless.

"If I hadn't guessed it, would you want to keep it from me until I die?" Gu Chang'an smiled wryly, "You are so cold-hearted."

"……How did you know?"

"What do you think? Apart from the Qi family, who knew that Qi Ruoshui and the eldest princess had the same disease? And I have read the chess records you published in Peifu before, let alone—" Gu Changan took out a square from his cuff Hei Yu, "You brought back the tokens of the Pavilion Master of the Yipin Pavilion."

Pei Huaiwen remained silent.That's right, only Gu Chang'an knows the identity of the master of Yipin Pavilion.

He sighed, "So what if I know? I am not Qi Yun now, but Pei Huaiwen. Look, who would believe that I am Qi Yun?"

"Didn't I believe it?"

Pei Huaiwen had no choice but to say, "Okay, believe me. In fact, I just don't want you to be involved again. Chang'an, I have been immersed in officialdom for many years and I am used to life of intrigue, but you are not suitable and not worth getting involved for me. "

"Why do you say it's not worth it if it's not worth it?" Gu Chang'an said, his voice choked up, Pei Huaiwen looked at his red eyes in shock, a little at a loss. "Do you know that I haven't had a peaceful sleep for several years? Qi Yun, I've been regretting it."

"It's not your fault."

"No, that's my fault, you don't need to say anything." Gu Changan hid the tears seeping from the corner of his eyes, smiled, but his expression gradually became complicated.

"Actually, Qi Yun." Gu Changan looked at Pei Huaiwen and asked, "Have you ever thought about Liang Jingyun?"

"What do you mean?"

Gu Changan looked at him for a while, then pursed his lips and said, "It's nothing."
