The Fugitive White Moonlight of a Powerful Minister

  Chapter 73 Soft and delicate

  On the quiet Chang'an Avenue, a carriage gallops past under the moonlight.

  The driver had tried his best to whip his horsewhip, but someone in the carriage stuck his head out to urge him to go faster.

   Gu Fei got into the carriage and saw that Pei You's leg injury was so serious.

   There was a hole directly on the thigh, and I don't know how deep it was stabbed with a knife. The wound was soaked in water again, it was just...

  He is a martial arts practitioner, and he has seen the world, but he still can't bear to look at the wound.

  In addition, although it has already entered spring, the night is cold and cold, so it is natural to hurry up and hurry up the people in front.

   "My lord, did that wicked woman from Zhao Zhai's family hurt you?" Gu Fei gritted his teeth, wishing he could rush to Zhao's mansion with his knife in hand.

  Pei You's complexion is indeed not very good-looking, there is a black and green air in the paleness, even though he is wearing a dry cloak, he can still see that the clothes inside are sticking wetly to his body.

  He didn't answer Gu Fei's words, but asked, "Who told you to enter the palace to find me?"

It was only then that Gu Fei remembered that there was a dagger in his arms, and he put his hands in front of Pei You: "It's that girl from the Wen family who hurried out of the palace and handed me this dagger, saying that something happened to you, and sent my subordinates to go near Tai'an Lake Looking for you."

  Pei You's eyes fell on the dagger, which was the one he gave Wen Ning.

  Gu Fei wouldn’t listen to her orders if he didn’t see the token. He just asked her to take the dagger and go home in the carriage of the Duke’s mansion. She still remembered him, so she had a bit of conscience.

   I don't know if it was his own illusion, but Gu Fei felt that his eldest son seemed to look a little better.

   "And then?" Pei You asked again.

  Gu Fei hurriedly replied: "I saw that she was panicking, so I ordered someone to take her home first, and asked Wang Qinsheng to go back to the Duke's mansion to prepare a carriage, and then he went into the palace to find you, thinking about the prince..."

  In fact, Gu Fei wanted to say "I have always had my own ideas", turned a corner, and said: "I have always kept a low profile. After entering the palace, I didn't dare to disturb the imperial guards. Fortunately, I found you soon!"

  Pei You was leaning halfway on the carriage, her hair was already half-dry, and it was brushed and half-clipped to the side of her face, looking a little laid-back and coquettish, her eyes flicked on Gu Fei's face.

   "Go back to the house to receive the reward."

  Gu Fei: "Huh?"

  Pei You raised his eyelids and looked at him.

  Gu Fei came to his senses, ecstasy welled up in his eyes, and he cupped his hands and said, "Thank you, my lord, for the reward!"

  Suppressing his heart that was about to float, he asked again: "My lord, where is the eldest princess..."

  Pei You frowned: "What do you think?"

  Gu Fei only breathed a sigh of relief, then lowered his head and said: "This subordinate understands!"

  Pei You gave a very low "hmm" in his nasal cavity, and his voice was a little tired: "Go out. When Tu Bai comes back, let him report back quickly, no matter what time it is."

"yes!"

  The carriage slowed down when it was near the Duke's Mansion.

  The prince returned to the mansion, and the servants lit up the lamps in an orderly manner, and knowing their master's temperament and preferences, they bowed their waists and lowered their hands, and their feet were soft and slow.

  Gu Fei squatted down and wanted to carry Pei You in, but he raised his hand to refuse.

  Wang Qinsheng had already called the doctor to wait at the door. When he saw Pei You's gait, he only had injuries on his legs, and the injuries were not serious.

  Gu Fei felt wronged: "..."

  The doctor looked at the wound, prescribed medicine, and then helped the prince to bathe and change clothes, and applied medicine to bandage the wound. The time for the prince has passed.

   Qinghui Hall did not calm down.

  The people in the Fuqu courtyard sent a lot of things, including medicines and supplements. The sender didn't say anything, just saluted silently, put the things down and left.

  Gu Fei looked at the expensive medicinal materials piled up on the table outside, hesitant to speak.

  He didn't understand why the son was so wary of the Duke's mansion and the eldest princess. He said that mother and child bonded.

  However, it is much better to be willing to return to the Duke’s residence after being injured this time than to avoid living in the Temple of Grace last time.

  Gu Fei didn't say anything in the end, Shi Zi Huijie's mind was beyond human reach, he had already asked a nonsense question on the carriage just now.

  The son returned to the Duke's mansion, what is his situation, why should he report to the eldest princess?

  However, the eldest princess knew that the son had suffered such a serious injury, but she didn't come to visit the son in person?

   "Your Majesty wants to rest, this subordinate resigns." Gu Fei felt that it was better not to think about these things with his own brain, and resigned.

  Pei You was lying on the couch, of course he could hear the movement outside clearly, and there was even a faint smell of some medicinal materials outside from the tip of his nose.

  He didn't take the initiative to report, and the eldest princess didn't come to ask, but only sent medicinal materials and supplements.

   The meaning conveyed is very clear.

   She won't do what he doesn't want her to intervene in, but as a mother, she is worried about his safety.

  Pei You's brows and eyes loosened slightly, the cold determination on his face dissipated, and the muscles on his body relaxed unconsciously.

  He couldn't help but think of Mrs. Wang.

  Her tenderness and kindness built him the world's first high wall called "trust".

  When he was young, he only knew the dangers outside the high walls. When he grew up, he knew the treachery of people.

  Power comes first, profit comes second, talking about "love" is a joke.

  Pei You closed her eyes, but didn't intend to fall asleep.

  In addition to bandaging the wound, the doctor cryptically said that there was still "residual poison" in his body, so he prescribed a prescription, and Wang Qinsheng decocted it.

  But the momentary slack in his heart still made him lose consciousness quickly.

  The sun was shining brightly in a trance, and in the elegant courtyard, a woman wearing a turquoise skirt leaned over in front of the embroidery frame, looking up and smiling at the people beside her.

  When the sun fell on her eyes, there seemed to be water lines, rippling and generating waves.

  The screen changed, and it was another spring night, the alley was silent and the moon was shining. The woman was thrown lightly against the wall by him, probably after drinking, her cheeks were pink, her eyes were sparkling, and she looked at him flickeringly.

   "Are you really not happy with me?"

  Soft, delicate.

  In the blink of an eye, he had already held her face in his hands. The aroma of the wine wafted across his face, and the pair of red lips were tender and full, moving gently, like a silent invitation.

  He involuntarily bit it, it was soft and sweet.

  Lip to tongue probing, eat the marrow to know the taste, and continue to go deep in a hurry, wishing to tear the bones into the belly.

  Pei You opened his eyes suddenly, realizing what he had dreamed, and frowned.

  Just as he was about to call for someone, he caught a glimpse of the decoction on the table beside the couch, and poured it with his head up regardless of the temperature.

   It's crazy.

  Pei You closed her eyes and pressed between her eyebrows.

   "Young Master." Tu Bai rushed in from the window at this moment, saw the injury on Pei You's leg, and half-kneeled in front of the couch, "Tu Bai is late! My lord, forgive me!"

  Pei You held back her thoughts, half-raised herself from the couch, and looked over with deep eyes: "How is the investigation?"

  Tu Bai was not with Pei You for the past two days, so he went to check Yichun Garden in person.

  I thought it would be easy to find out with a small hook, but it took a full two days of work.

   "My lord, I was just going to find out what Miss Wen was doing in Yichun Garden according to my lord's wishes, but I didn't want to follow the clues. There are countless clues inside, and it's not easy!"

  Pei You heard the words, sat up directly, and waited for Tu Bai's next words seriously.

Tubai stroked his thoughts, and said slowly: "Miss Wen went to Yichun Garden before to disguise herself as a man, and the bustard kept silent about it, saying that she had no impression. But I checked Yichun Garden and found that it was probably just a shell , there is Bai Xiaosheng who is called "Young Master Yi" by the people of the Jianghu. There are some Jianghu people in the courtyard. I went back and inquired, and I only said that Mr. Yi is quite capable in collecting money and doing things, but they don't know how to meet Mr. Yi. , if necessary, can help inquire."

   "Before I left, I asked them to inquire. I think there will be a letter in these two days."

   "Besides, I ordered people to secretly visit the girls in Yichun Garden, and found that Li Wen had also been to Yichun Garden in the past two months, and Miss Yingyao, before going to Tianxiang Pavilion, was the number one in Yichun Garden."

   "My lord, I suspect that Miss Yingyao has a very close relationship with Yichunyuan, and Li Wen went to find Miss Yingyao to find out the details of Yichunyuan."

  Pei You raised his eyebrows and said, "How can you see that?"

"Every time Li Wen went to Yichun Garden, it was right after he had been to Tianxiang Pavilion. Our people kept staring at him, but the reason why we didn't find it was because his house was very close to Yichun Garden, and there was a hidden path. He often We only left the house at night. We checked the time, and every time Li Wen returned from Tianxiang Pavilion, he would re-enter Yichun Garden at midnight."

  Yi Chunyuan, Li Wen, Ying Yao, Wen Ning.

  Why do seemingly unrelated people and things connect together?

   "Tomorrow, you will go to Yichun Garden with me." Pei You said in a deep voice.

   "Tomorrow?" Tu Bai raised his head, "Aren't you waiting for a signal from Mr. Xun Yi?"

   "Sooner rather than later."

"yes!"

  Tu Bai was about to step back when Pei You called him: "Wait a minute."

   "Tomorrow Gu Fei and I will go to Yichun Garden together, and you need to check one more thing."

   "Sir, please tell me."

   "Check the actions of the two sons of the Wen family before and after the dust-cleaning banquet tonight."

  After Tu Bai left, Pei You lay back on the bed.

  Everything is silent, the candlelight is dim, and the tip of the nose is still flowing with a faint fragrance of medicinal herbs.

  Wang’s house was on fire, Li Wen, Wen Ning, Yichun Garden, Yingyao, and the dust-cleaning banquet.

   There must be a thread connecting these seemingly unrelated people and things together. This thread is hidden without a trace, but it is not without a trace.

  He has a hunch, as long as he finds it, the truth will be revealed.

  The long night is long, such a night that should be rough but ends in calm, under the cover of night, it is not calm after all.

  In a corner of the capital, a man in black knelt and replied: "Master, it seems that Yingyao deliberately obstructed the cleansing banquet, but she failed."

  The person in front of him stood with his hands behind his back, without turning his head, he only said, "Yingyao? Is it Yichun Garden again?"

   "It is not yet possible to find out. But Yingyao is alone in Beijing, and it is true that she only has close contacts with Yichunyuan."

  The man sneered: "The rivers and lakes are not involved in courts, so Yichunyuan's hand is too long."

"I don't know who that Mr. Yi is, he has repeatedly broken secrets, this time the operation is even more secretive, the subordinates did it themselves, the poison was poured on Wang Ziyi's wine cup, if he raises his glass and takes a sip of wine, he will be killed on the spot! "

  The man turned his head, his dark eyes did not lose their spirit due to aging, on the contrary they became more majestic. He just stared down, causing the man in black to straighten his back.

  He bowed his head and said: "Master, no third person will know about this matter!"

   "That's all, a Honglu Temple Minister, let him live a little longer."

  The man in black kowtowed again: "Thank you, master!"

   "Yichunyuan once again, there can't be three, since you can't wait for it to be an eyesore, let's send them a ride."

   "But Li Wen, I haven't found out the key yet. I don't know how they got to know about the fire in the palace and took action to stop it."

  The man laughed again, and the hunting robe fluttered in the night wind: "What's the use of finding other people's secrets? What I want is someone who can keep the secrets."

   And the best kept secret...

  The man in black understood: "This subordinate takes orders!"
