My emperor, long live!

After lunch, the servants came to clean up the bowls and chopsticks. Looking at the pretty maid, Pei Mo suddenly thought of Ning Qingcheng, the proprietress of Zuihua Pavilion. Qin Zheng had come to her for the last appointment, and she hadn't Shangxin casually sent Linglong to express her apology on her behalf, but thinking about it now, she felt inappropriate, after all, Ning Qingcheng had helped her wholeheartedly, and he should go see Ning Qingcheng in person if he wanted to.

"I'm going to the Zuihua Pavilion in the afternoon. Let Linglong accompany Ran'er back to the palace." Seeing Qin Ran's eyes widen in confusion, as if startled by her sudden words, Pei Mo pulled Qin Ran Ran's hand warmly explained, "Just now I suddenly remembered that I missed Ning Qingcheng's appointment last time, and I didn't apologize to her seriously. I will talk to her face to face in the afternoon, lest outsiders say that I am ignorant of etiquette and frivolous. "

Hearing that Pei Mo wanted to go to Zuihua Pavilion to find Ning Qingcheng, who had admired her for a long time, Qin Ran frowned slightly, feeling full of displeasure. How long ago did Zuihualou open, and she remembered going to Pei Mo sent Linglong to handle this matter the first time he was in Yusheng Pavilion, why would he want to go there in person again?

Even though there was a sea of ​​jealousy in his heart, Qin Ran still nodded at Pei Mo with a smile, pretending to be generous and said: "That's true, it is sincere to go in person. You go, this is not far from the palace. I'll go back by myself."

Pei Mo made arrangements for Qin Ran's return to the palace, and sent someone to send a message to Qin Zheng asking her to drink with her at the Drunken Flower Pavilion, and then left the prime minister's mansion.

Looking at Pei Mo's back that was drifting away, Qin Ran lay on the railing of the corridor, sighed irritably, wrapped a corner of his sleeve between his fingers with a depressed face, and kept spinning it.

Why did Pei Mo suddenly think of Ning Qingcheng?Although Qin Ran is jealous of Ning Qingcheng, she understands Pei Mo's personality. On the surface, she seems indifferent, as if everything in the world has never been taken to heart, but once she really loves someone with her heart, she will be as firm as a rock. No one can catch her eyes anymore.Thinking about it, Qin Ran ruled out the possibility that Pei Mo and Ning Qingcheng had an affair, and then guessed, could it be that there is some secret hidden between the two of them?If so, what kind of secret will Pei Mo and Ning Qingcheng have?

Thinking of this, Qin Ran secretly made up a small calculation in his heart, instead of sitting and daydreaming, it would be better to inquire...

After finalizing his idea, Qin Ran immediately disguised himself as a handsome young man and sneaked out of Pei's mansion. In order not to attract Pei Mo's attention, he rented a carriage and followed him.

Qin Zheng was a little surprised when he received the message sent by Pei Mo. She didn't take Pei Mo to see the beauties at the fireworks place, but Pei Mo took the initiative to ask her to go to the Zuihua Pavilion together?

Seeing the carriage parked outside the mansion, Qin Zheng was sure that Pei Mo was not teasing her, and immediately showed a wretched smile, looking at Pei Mo with intention: "I said that today the sun comes out from the west. Did the lonely and desolate Pei Xiang actually start looking for flowers and asking Liu?"

Pei Mo knew that Qin Zheng couldn't spit ivory out of his mouth, and he was too lazy to argue with her on weekdays, but now he frowned slightly, looked at Qin Zheng and said: "It's no wonder that Bai Qianning didn't like your foolish virtue before." you."

As soon as Pei Mo mentioned her family, Bai Qianning, and seemed to have something related to say to her, Qin Zheng suddenly became serious, and leaned in front of Pei Mo with a doggy smile: "I admit that I am not as good as you in terms of charm, You'll know that my fifth younger sister is fascinated by you. You are so powerful, you must have a way to help me catch up with Bai Qianning, right? Since we are so familiar, teach me."

Don't look at Qin Zheng's always unscrupulous appearance. When it comes to his own interests, he has never been unambiguous in his ability to beat a snake to a stick. Pei Mo gave Qin Zheng a meaningful look, and said with a smile: "Everyone has sharpness and softness. On the other hand, especially a woman, no matter she is a ruler in charge of the world or a good wife and mother who cares for her husband and children, there is always a longing in her heart that she wants to win the hearts of the people and never want to leave. It is natural for a bohemian like you It's to avoid it."

Qin Zheng was taken aback when he heard the words, then nodded thoughtfully, and fell silent.

Pei Mo continued: "Don't look at Bai Qianning's indifference on the surface and her cold attitude towards everyone, but in fact she has a gentle and delicate temperament. Although she didn't respond enthusiastically to the kindness you treated her, she remembered it in her heart. If you want to win Bai Qianning's heart, you don't just have to jump up and down in front of her eyes like a monkey, you have to be gentle with each other, and exchange your sincerity for your sincerity."

"Take your sincerity for your sincerity..." Qin Zheng murmured repeatedly, thinking back to Pei Mo's words, "If I had restrained myself like you and hadn't attacked Bai Qianning, Bai Qianning would not treat me so indifferently now .Pei Mo, you are right, I did something wrong before."

Pei Mo's words were like enlightenment, and Qin Zheng's elm head suddenly became enlightened. Thinking of the past with Bai Qianning, Qin Zheng rarely began to regret his impulsive recklessness, his eyes were heavy, and his heart was full of unresolved bitterness. After a long silence, Qin Zheng looked up at Pei Mo and smiled wryly: "It's easy to say but hard to do. How can the mistakes I made be made up for by a few words and a little bit of diligence?"

"It hasn't started yet, how can you say it's over?" Pei Mo stared at Qin Zheng, put one hand on the back of her hand to encourage her, and said with firm eyes: "Drips of water wear away rocks, and ropes cut wood. As long as you persevere, you will eventually impress Bai Qian." A solid day."

Hearing this, Qin Zheng took a deep breath, looked into Pei Mo's deep eyes, and said in a low voice, "You're right, Bai Qianning and I haven't reached the point of breaking up, and there is still room for maneuver."

During the conversation, the carriage had arrived at Tianqing Street where Zuihua Pavilion was located, and the street was as lively as ever. As soon as the two of them got out of the car, vendors peddling along the street came up to inquire. Among them was a little girl about seven or eight years old, wearing various A wreath made of flowers, holding a bamboo basket in his hand, full of delicate flowers with dew.

Thinking that most women love such exquisite and beautiful things, Qin Zheng waved to the flower girl and bought all the flowers in her basket.

"I didn't see you being so considerate when I came to Zuihua Pavilion before." Seeing that Qin Zheng suddenly changed his mind and wanted to buy flowers for Bai Qianning, Pei Mo couldn't help curling his lips into a chuckle and teasing Qin Zheng.

Qin Zheng lowered his head and sniffed the fragrance of flowers. With an open mind, he raised his eyebrows and looked at Pei Mo with a smile: "This is different from the past. This is the first step for me to wear water through rocks."

Holding flowers in one hand and a jade pendant under the sleeve in the other, Qin Zheng couldn't help feeling uneasy when she stepped into the Zui Hua Pavilion. She planned to propose to Bai Qianning with flowers and a family heirloom jade pendant when she saw Bai Qianning later. If she agrees, she will have to go back to the palace in the future to ask the queen mother to agree.

Thinking of this, Qin Zheng wished he could fly to Bai Qianning immediately and pull the wind under Pei Mo's feet.

Qin Ran's carriage stopped when it reached Tianqing Street, and the famous Drunken Flower Pavilion in Beijing was ahead. She didn't dare to follow closely, for fear that Pei Mo would become suspicious, so she had to get off at the street corner and walk there.

Before reaching the Zuihua Pavilion, I saw a mature woman with a charming face wearing an indigo silver-patterned bust-length skirt, half-draped in a light white gauze, with a swaying figure and a charming smile, busy welcoming her into the room. Guests in and out.

This must be Ning Qingcheng, the boss of Zuihua Pavilion.Qin Ran hid in the dark and was about to take a closer look, but saw her second sister, Qin Zheng, who was holding Pei Mo, leaving her behind and hurried in alone. Ning Qingcheng turned to meet Pei Mo.

"What wind brought Prime Minister Pei here today?"

Seeing Pei Mo appearing in Zuihua Pavilion suddenly, Ning Qingcheng was a little surprised. Since he left without saying goodbye that day, Pei Mo never appeared again as if he wanted to draw a line with her. Although he sent a maid to apologize on his behalf, it was more like Is he avoiding her or something.

Although he had some complaints in his heart, Ning Qingcheng still welcomed Pei Mo into the Zuihua Pavilion with a smile on his face.

"Before I was sent to the Liuli Kingdom by the Queen's order, I missed the opening of Boss Ning's restaurant, and because of my busy schedule, I have no time to explain to Boss Ning in person. I also hope Boss Ning Haihan." Pei Mofang stepped into the Zuihua Pavilion and said straight to the point.

Ning Qingcheng led Pei Mo into the private room while smiling lowly and said, "Qingcheng is just a commoner, and it is a great fortune to get Prime Minister Pei's approval. Besides, it is just a small restaurant opening, and Prime Minister Pei is the pillar of the country. Naturally, the righteousness of the country should come first." As he spoke, he glanced at Pei Mo, covered his lips and smiled lightly, "But although this matter is justifiable, Master Pei must be punished a little."

Pei Mo pursed his lips and said calmly, "It's up to you."

"Then..." The smile on Ning Qingcheng's face became brighter and brighter, and he pulled Pei Mo's sleeve and smiled coquettishly, "I will punish Master Pei to have a good drink with Qingcheng!"

The box that had already been prepared was filled with fresh melons and fruits, side dishes and delicious wine. Ning Qingcheng dismissed the accompanying girl and poured wine for Pei Mo himself with the jug.

Pei Mo stepped into the box, and Qin Ran followed behind. As a princess and she had just passed the age, Qin Ran had never been in this kind of place before, so she couldn't help feeling a little stage fright, wanting to retreat but unwilling to give up.

"Hey, what a handsome young master! Looking at your face, it must be the first time you have come to the Drunken Flower Pavilion?"

A gentle and coquettish voice sounded in his ears, Qin Ran turned his head to look, and saw a pretty woman in a peach red dress walking with a slender willow waist.

Qin Ran obviously had never seen this kind of battle before, frowned slightly, avoided the champagne that the woman was waving to her face, coughed lightly, and said in a low voice on purpose: "I want to see your boss Ning Qingcheng. "

The woman covered her lips and smiled lightly, "Boss Ning is accompanying the distinguished guests, why don't you follow me into the box and wait for a while?"

Qin Ran naturally knew that Ning Qingcheng didn't have the time to come out to see her, so he snorted softly, pretending to be a dandy, "Forget it, give me the box closest to Boss Ning."
