Beauty is sick

Coughing one after another, Pei Zhe clutched the curtain, making a gesture to get out of bed.

His Majesty Zhao Guosheng's name was Xiao Huaixi, upon seeing this, he hurriedly said: "Pei Qing doesn't need to be courteous, I have come here specially to visit you, you are seriously ill, just stay in bed."

Pei Zhe coughed so badly that he couldn't even speak clearly, so he withdrew his hand to lift the curtain: "Wei, I thank you, Your Majesty."

The boy followed him in, he was very embarrassed, and moved the stool to pour tea tremblingly.

Xiao Huaixi waved his hand: "Go down, I want to talk to Pei Aiqing for a while."

After the servant left, he stretched out his hand to lift the bed curtain: "Pei Qing, the imperial physician reported that you are seriously ill. I came here to see you specially after the morning court today."

"No!" Pei Zhe gripped the curtain, "Ahem, I am so grateful for the grace of the Holy Spirit, but I am really seriously ill. If I lift the curtain, I'm afraid I will transfer my sickness to you."

Xiao Huaixi didn't insist, and sat down beside the bed: "Pei Qing had a hard trip, and I was anxious when I heard the news that you fell ill. A few days ago, the teacher wrote a letter, saying that you were worried about the affairs of Youzhou, and you put yourself in danger. , almost killed Qian Yuguan, my heart hurts."

Pei Zhe blocked the troublesome hands on his body and coughed: "Thanks to the great love of the Holy One, I should share the worries of the Holy One with regard to Youzhou."

Jin Lingjiu snorted softly, and the sound of breath hit Pei Zhe's ear, making his whole body freeze.

Across a layer of bed curtains, outside was the emperor of Zhao Kingdom, Jin Lingjiu did not hold back at all, and even all the evil in his bones were aroused.

Jin Lingjiu is the eldest prince who "died" more than ten years ago, and Xiao Huaixi has a father-son relationship with him, but Pei Zhe knows in his heart that Jinling Jiu regards Xiao Huaixi as an enemy.

He did this series of things with great fanfare, just to make everything known to the world, and at the same time overthrow the imperial court and replace it.

Jin Lingjiu is taking revenge on Xiao Huaixi, with reason and motivation. Although killing one's father is unacceptable, revenge for one's mother is a matter of course.

What's more, Jin Lingjiu is a lunatic who doesn't care about ethics.

Pei Zhe was very scared, he had seen Jin Lingjiu's madness before, he was afraid that Jin Lingjiu would open the bed curtain regardless and do something to Xiao Huaixi.

Jin Lingjiu's lips moved, and he uttered a few light words between opening and closing: "Is Pei Lang afraid?"

Pei Zhe was about to stop breathing, and tightly clutching Jin Lingjiu's hand, a hint of pleading flashed in his eyes.

If Jin Lingjiu made a move, no one would be able to stop him.

He was an official in the court, Xiao Huaixi was his king, Pei Zhe couldn't help but watch something happen to Xiao Huaixi.Similarly, Jin Lingjiu was the person he loved all his life, and he didn't want to see Xiao Huaixi's blood on Jinling Jiu's hands.

Xiao Huaixi was rambling about how worried he was about Pei Zhe, completely unaware that not only his Pei Qing was on the bed, but also his unworthy son who was framed to death early.

"Pei Qing, this trip...have you done what I entrusted to you?"

After condolences, Xiao Huaixi brought up the serious matter of concern.

Jin Lingjiu raised his eyebrows, stared at Pei Zhe leisurely, and bit his earlobe: "What business is Pei Lang doing?"

Pei Zhe couldn't break free, the physical and mental stimulation made his scalp numb, and his voice trembled slightly: "I, I have searched Zhucheng, but I haven't fulfilled the entrustment of the Holy Majesty, please punish me."

He deliberately didn't mention the details, because he didn't want Jin Lingjiu to know too much. They all have their own plans, and it's best not to interfere with each other.

Xiao Huaixi was silent for a while: "But I heard that you married someone from Number One Under Heaven?"

Jin Lingjiu made a half-smile, and made a mouth: Tell him.

Pei Zhe was in a dilemma, he had to answer Xiao Huaixi's question, but Jin Lingjiu was by his side, once he answered, he would definitely be guessed.

There were wolves before and tigers behind, and he had never encountered such a difficult thing to deal with.

Pei Zhe thought it over and said: "There is a reason for the incident, cough cough, I will report it to the Holy One in the future, cough cough..."

He coughed so much that his voice became hoarse.

Jin Lingjiu squinted his eyes: "So you don't want me to know what's the real thing, maybe it has something to do with me? Since Pei Lang doesn't want to talk about it, how about I ask him?"

Pei Zhe glared at him with an obvious warning: "How dare you!"

"Why don't I dare?" Jin Lingjiu lowered his head, seeing the hand he held in his hand until the knuckles turned white, he couldn't help laughing, "It's the first time I saw Pei Lang afraid of being like this, because he was afraid that I would really did he kill him?"

Pei Zhe was not in good condition, coughed badly, and couldn't even speak a complete sentence.

Xiao Huaixi frowned, sighed helplessly, and continued to ask, but it seemed that he was unreasonable: "Pei Qing is sick, you should rest more, and then go to the palace to report on your duties after you recover."

Pei Zhe was his right-hand man, and he had handed over the tokens to Pei Zhe. How could he have thought that Pei Zhe would hide a man on the bed behind his back, and this man was still the enemy of the court.

Xiao Huaixi had a lot to discuss with Pei Zhe, otherwise he wouldn't have come here in the morning. Unexpectedly, his Pei Qing's physical condition was worse than what the imperial physician said, and he couldn't answer his question at all.

Pei Zhe couldn't get what he wanted, and immediately said: "The minister obeys the order, and when the minister recovers, he will definitely... Hey cough, go to the palace to make amends."

"It's not enough to make amends, you should take good care of your illness." Xiao Huaixi paused, and said, "Recently, the first floor of the world is not peaceful, and I plan to take time to meet Jinling Jiu."

Pei Zhe was stunned: "What does His Majesty mean?"

If Xiao Huaixi knew that the person he wanted to see was here, I don't know what kind of expression he would show.

A dim light flashed in Jin Lingjiu's eyes, and he looked at the vague figure through the bed curtain.

You should be surprised, right?

Xiao Huaixi sighed: "Whether it's true or not, I have to meet him, otherwise I won't feel at ease."

As soon as the door of the room was closed, Jin Lingjiu pressed Pei Zhe on the bed: "He wants to see me, why didn't you tell him I'm here?"

Pei Zhe secretly slandered, you are a wolf, tell him, can he still walk out of my mansion alive?

Jinling Jiuxiang was not prepared to get an answer, so he said to himself: "He stays close to me and the first floor of the world in a few words. The purpose of Pei Lang's trip is not Xiao Chengming, but me, right?"

Pei Zhe raised his eyelids: "So what?"

Jin Lingjiu touched his forehead, and laughed happily: "If yes, I will be very happy, Pei Lang defended me just now."

Pei Zhe choked, his expression a little unnatural, and he pushed him: "Get up, don't press on me."

Jin Lingjiu stuck to him like a dog's skin plaster: "I want to stay by Pei Lang's side, use my body to protect you from the wind and rain, and keep you away from the cold. How can I leave you?"

Pei Zhe: "...Aren't you nasty?"

Jin Lingjiu showed it with actions, and he didn't feel nauseous at all.

He buried his head on Pei Zhe's shoulder, his teeth clenched lightly, and left a tooth mark on his collarbone: "Stamp it so that no one else will miss me."

Pei Zhe was almost laughed angrily by him: "When did I become yours?"

Jinling Jiuyi is serious: "Sooner or later, everything has been worshipped. Could it be that you want to start messing and give up?"

Pei Zhe didn't bother to talk to him, Jin Lingjiu made a fuss by himself for a while, feeling bored: "Are you going to keep pretending to be sick?"

From Youzhou City to the capital, Pei Zhe has been pretending to be sick, judging from what he said to Xiao Huaixi just now, it seems that he has no intention of returning to the court.

Jin Lingjiu couldn't understand. With Pei Zhe's character, it was impossible to ignore what he did.

Pei Zhe yawned: "You're going to make a fuss, and you let Lin Jingkong and others come to be lobbyists. I won't stand by and watch. Do you want to have a fight with you?"

"Where have you come to the point of life and death?" Jin Lingjiu's smile couldn't reach his eyes, "Pei Lang always hides and relaxes."

According to his plan, it is best for Pei Zhe to uncover the truth about the changes in the Winter Moon Palace. He had planned everything, but he never expected that Pei Zhe would pretend to be sick.

Pei Zheshi stood up abruptly, and looked at him with a half-smile, "You want to use me as a knife, but I'm not as good as you want."

Jin Lingjiu swayed around in front of Pei Zhe, then left Shaoshifu.He has been busy recently, and the city is full of wind and rain at the moment. After careful inspection, he can find clues related to the No. [-] Tianxia Building.

Pei Zhe nodded his nose, savoring the lingering cold fragrance of plum blossoms. This clue seemed to be a flaw, but it was actually the bait that Jin Lingjiu left on purpose.

Just like what he did in Huaizhou City, he first sent him a letter, and later created a chance encounter at the Shangyuan Night Banquet, deliberately arousing his suspicion.

Pei Zhe smiled self-deprecatingly, and didn't know whether to say that Jin Lingjiu's bait was too tempting, or that he was not an ordinary fish. After all, there was no winner between the two of them.

Pei Zhe thought that Jin Lingjiu was busy with the affairs of No. [-] Floor, but that night, this person entered his bedroom again.

Pei Zhe glanced at him: "You came to my mansion to become addicted, do you want to keep warming the bed for a long time?"

Jin Lingjiu shrugged: "Lord Tanhua, don't wrong me. I'm here to collect debts. In Huaizhou City, you owe me a hairpin and a hair crown. You should pay it back after time counts."

Pei Zhe was stunned.

Jin Lingjiu looked at him amusedly: "Young master, the dignified prince, don't you want to play tricks?"

"Who wants to renege on the debt?" Pei Zhe was annoyed, "Isn't it just a hairpin, and it's worthless, I'll get it for you."

Jin Lingjiu took the cold tea on the table, took a sip, and frowned: "Pei Lang's hairpin is worthless, but my hair crown is valuable, and the one you broke is worth a hundred taels of silver."

Pei Zhe turned his head in disbelief: "What did you say? How much?"

He knew that the things on Jin Lingjiu were either rich or expensive, after all, he was the ninth son of the first floor in the world.

Back then when Lin Jingkong was soaking in the hot springs in the other courtyard, he accidentally broke Jinlingjiu's jade crown. To be honest, the impoverished Tanhualang had a sneaky idea: would Jinlingjiu care about a small hair crown?

Facts have proved that the wealthy Jiu Gongzi is very concerned.

Jin Lingjiu smiled brightly: "The jade crown was specially made by someone, and the hundred taels of silver was already discounted for Pei Lang."

Pei Zhe understood that his original intention was not jade crowns and hairpins, but that Jin Lingjiu mentioned this on purpose in order to make him subdue.

Money can turn the devil around.

Pei Zhe walked up to Jin Lingjiu and sat directly on his lap: "As far as our relationship is concerned, do you still want to talk about money?"

Jin Lingjiu wrapped his arms around his waist unceremoniously, with a smile on his brows: "Didn't Master Pei say that you are not mine."

Pei Zhe was speechless, but Jin Lingjiu actually used what he had said before to block him: "I have been married, I have paid my respects, and other things will happen sooner or later. Why, do you want to give up?"

Jin Lingjiu looked innocent: "How dare I?"

Pei gritted his teeth: "I can give you the hairpin, but not the jade crown. What do you want?"

"After all, I'm at a big loss." Jin Lingjiu sighed pretendingly, and folded his hands at the waist, "But Pei Lang said so, it doesn't matter if I suffer a little bit, you accompany me to meet someone, the matter of Yuguan How about a write-off?"

Pei Zhe looked at him suspiciously: "Who are you seeing?"

Jin Lingjiu smiled meaningfully: "An old acquaintance of you and me."
