Wait a minute, heroine

Flowing clouds covered the silver moon, and the house with white walls and blue tiles became dark.

All the female relatives in the back house were sleeping. Only in the courtyard of the west wing could one still hear subtle words:

"Yaoji, come here."

"grumble?"

"What are you talking about? How about I give you a shot?"

"Chi chi chi...!"

…

In the main courtyard, the curtains in the elegant boudoir were hung down, and Pei Xiangjun was lying on his side on the pillow, sleeping soundly.

Because it was midsummer, the thin quilt was only slightly draped around the waist, and the upper body was wearing a triangular handkerchief made of water cloud brocade. Under the gourd-like waist, it was very cool.

After returning from the fight near Dongshi, Pei Xiangjun took medicine and fell asleep early. According to his usual habits, he should not wake up until early in the morning.

But I don't know how late I slept, but I felt something was wrong, and then I opened my eyes.

Suo Suo~

Pei Xiangjun turned over on the bed, lifted up the curtain, and looked at the imperial concubine's couch in the outer room - Hu Meizi, who was lying there reading a book, was gone.

Pei Xiangjun blinked and felt something was wrong. He quietly sat up, put his thin skirt on his body, closed his shirt slightly, then came to the window and listened.

Luo Ning came to stay at Pei's house temporarily. Because of his special status, Pei Xiangjun could not arrange a guest room in the outer house, but it was also impossible for him to sleep with Hu Meizi in the same bed. The arranged accommodation was a wing room on the side of the main house, only a few dozen steps away.

Listening carefully, the room was quiet, without any words, but there were some subtle movements, which sounded like... I can't describe it.

This foxy girl is here...

Or is Jingtang back? !

Pei Xiangjun's eyes were full of suspicion. After thinking for a while, he silently jumped out of the window, followed the corridor, and came to the window of the wing. His voice became a little clearer:

I still don’t understand what I’m doing…

Pei Xiangjun hesitated for a moment, leaned against the edge of the window, licked his fingers with his tongue, carefully made a small hole in the window paper, and looked inside:

The room was clean and tidy, and the candle lamp was placed on the dressing table, emitting a dim yellow light.

The usually cool and aloof fox Meizi wears a black hollow bellyband...

!

When Pei Xiangjun saw this authentic little dress, surprise flashed in his eyes. He didn't expect that the seemingly conservative and aloof wife of the leader would be so arrogant in private.

Take a closer look...

Between the curtains, there was a stern and extraordinary Jingtang, leaning against the head of the bed, with his broad chest and abdominal muscles visible, looking like a great master.

But the usually fierce and arrogant Hu Meizi is not fierce at all at this time...

? !

When Pei Xiangjun saw this, he thought that Jingtang was bullying and coercing the girl in private, but if he looked carefully...

This foxy girl is still pretending to be aggrieved...

It was the first time he saw this kind of scene, and the impact was really big. Pei Xiangjun stared blankly. Before he could recover, he found Jingtang leaning on the bedside. He raised his eyes and looked at the window.

!

Pei Xiangjun's expression changed slightly and he hid back in the room. And subtle words also sounded from next door:

"Is Sanniang awake?"

"It doesn't sound like it."

"Oh~...little thief~ are you okay?"

"hehe……"

…

Pei Xiangjun sat alone on the edge of the canopy bed, looking at the empty room. He couldn't help but think of the last time he was snatched from the door, and then ended up here in complete defeat. His eyes slowly became sour.

I didn't know how long I had been feeling sad, but there was a sudden movement outside.

Squeak~

Pei Xiangjun suddenly came back to his senses. He wanted to get up and see what the two of them were doing, but in the end, he walked from far to near and came directly to the door.

Dong Dong——

Pei Xiangjun's eyes were slightly startled, and he quickly fell down and lay down, making a sleepy look:

"Who is it?"

"I, Sanniang, am I asleep?"

"..."

Pei Xiangjun felt that Jingtang was here to confirm what she had just peeked at. His eyes were a little panicked and he hesitated for a moment:

"I was just woken up by a knock on the door. If you...you have something to say, come in and talk."

The door opens.

Ye Jingtang, neatly dressed, walked in from the door and went to the back room. When he saw Sanniang wearing clothes, he opened the bead curtain.

Pei Xiangjun sat up, his eyes a little dodgey, and acted like nothing happened:

"You just came back? Are you busy outside?"

Ye Jingtang definitely didn't just come back. He knew that Sanniang had just run out of the window, and he came here half the night out of fear that Sanniang would be wronged.

Ye Jingtang came to him, sat down on the makeup stool, held his wrist and checked his pulse carefully:

"I haven't finished my work yet, but I don't think I need to go out at night. I've been too busy with things at the Yamen these two days. Sanniang has an injury on her back and hasn't come over yet. Today I asked her to go into battle with the injury..."

Pei Xiangjun blinked his eyes and saw that Ye Jingtang didn't seem to notice what she had just peeked at. He breathed a sigh of relief, and then said quietly:

"Your Ning'er is useless, so she can just do something in the nest. When it comes to fighting and killing outside, who will help you if I don't help you?"

Ye Jingtang smiled: "I know Sanniang is capable. Not only is the industry well-organized, but her marksmanship is also proficient. However, Ning'er is still very powerful, but her fighting style is relatively steady. Sanniang will still put her own safety first when fighting against others. , don’t fight so hard.”

"Hmph~"

Pei Xiangjun felt warm in his heart, glanced at Ye Jingtang, and said:

"I showed you a house, just above Tianshui Bridge..."

"Sanniang is familiar with the capital, so it would be best if you have time to help me find something. But I will pay for it myself, so Sanniang, please don't just pay for it..."

"You are the young master of Honghualou. You have done so many things. You should be rewarded according to the gang rules. If you don't want to, in the future, all the disciples will learn from you, the young master. Who will be willing to work for the gang attentively? This matter Keep it in the public account, I’m not using my private money to give you a red envelope.”

When I saw Sanniang talking about the allusion of "Zigong redeems people" in the night hall, she naturally no longer declined:

"Then Sanniang can just make arrangements."

"Okay, I don't know what you think about waking me up late at night to comfort me... Go to bed, I'm sleepy."

"Sanniang, please rest early."

…

Soon, Ye Jingtang got up and left the bedroom.

Pei Xiangjun fell on the pillow, bit his lower lip and looked at the closed door, feeling much more comfortable than before...

——

On the other side, inside the Imperial City.

Something went wrong in Fushou Palace. Craftsmen were working overnight to reinforce and clear the tunnel. In order to prevent disturbing the palace people, it was sealed. The Empress Dowager moved to Changle Palace to stay temporarily.

It was late at night, and it was already past the time for lights out in the palace, but there was a little light on in Cheng'an Hall.

The Empress of the Wei Dynasty was wearing a red gauze nightgown, lying on her side on the dragon bed, her proud figure looming under the gauze. Although she was wearing pajamas, it was like a mist covering her, and it was not much different from not wearing any.

The Queen Mother was a little more conservative. She was wearing a dark red nightgown and leaning against the bedside. She was holding a book in her hand and was concentrating on reading at night.

Seeing the scene in the book where the male protagonist risked his life to sneak into the imperial mausoleum to open the coffin, and reunited with the Queen Mother and hugged each other and cried with joy, the Queen Mother couldn't help but bite her red lips, and her eyes became crystal clear.

The book was not thick, and every chapter was missing. The Queen Mother was a little reluctant to read it, so she closed the book and asked:

"Your Majesty, what happened to the Crown Prince of Liang during the reign of the former Queen Mother Xuanyang?"

The Empress of Wei closed her eyes and seemed to be asleep, but when the Queen Mother asked questions, she still opened her red lips lightly and said:

"There is no allusion. After inheriting the throne, he became lustful and had countless wives and concubines. He has more than seventy children."

"ah?"

The Queen Mother slid down a little and lay in front of the empress, somewhat unbelieving:

"No way, I read in the book that I am suave and intelligent, and I should have made some achievements..."

The Empress of Wei closed her eyes and could feel the helplessness on her face:

"Miscellaneous books cannot be read as official history. Even if the Empress Dowager Xuanyang had an affair with the prince of the feudal lord, it was the prince who deliberately fawned over her and used the Queen Mother Xuanyang to listen to politics behind the curtain to suppress the civil and military tactics of the Manchu Dynasty. How could it be like what is written in the book, and a few words from the man The love of words is like a nymphomaniac."

The Queen Mother retorted: "It's impossible to say, no matter how powerful a woman is, she is still a woman. Your Majesty, think about it, if Prince Liang looks like Ye Jingtang, but is more proactive and lecherous than Ye Jingtang, and can coax people with sweet words, How many women in this world can resist this?"

The Empress of Wei thought for a moment: "That's right. How tough-tempered Li Ren was before, I thought she didn't like men. But just now, she has been chasing after Ye Jingtang all day long, and she has almost forgotten about my sister."

"There's nothing we can do about it. Ye Jingtang is really capable and loyal. If the Holy One meets him first, he might not be able to attend court anymore."

The Empress of Wei opened her eyes, a little funny:

"So, it's a blessing for Wei that Li Ren is filling his own pockets?"

The Queen Mother was afraid that talking about this would affect the feelings of the Empress sisters, so she stopped her words in time:

"It's just a joke. Marriage is determined by fate. The queen who will be... um... queen after the Holy Emperor will definitely be as beautiful and talented as Ye Jingtang."

The Empress of Wei secretly shook her head and did not answer.

The Queen Mother thought for a moment, then remembered something and whispered:

"Speaking of it, Your Majesty, this marriage is not easy to handle. The crown prince is the foundation of the country. If there is no heir, the people below will feel uneasy. If there is an heir and he is established as the crown prince, the Wei Dynasty will change its surname, and the kings will rebel. The green bandits only want to assassinate people. It’s because the Holy Emperor only has one heir, Li Ren, and if something happens to you two, you can inherit the throne without fighting among the kings..."

The empress of the Wei Dynasty knew that if she succeeded to the throne as a woman, she would inevitably face a dead end. She must either cut off the military power of the kings so that no one in the world could disobey her will;

The throne of the empress was snatched by her own ability, not given by the clan. Ten years ago, the eldest son of the emperor could take off his dragon robe and shout long live in front of the palace. How could he look at the faces of the kings in the future?

However, these things cannot be said in front of the simple-minded Queen Mother. The empress just said calmly:

"Take it one step at a time. Let's talk about these things later."

The Queen Mother knew that this matter was difficult to handle, so she sighed quietly and said no more...

——

Boom——

It was just dawn, and thunder sounded from outside the window.

In the elegant and spacious wing, the curtains were lowered, and there was no sound at all.

Ye Jingtang's eyelashes fluttered, and then he opened his eyes and found that it was dawn. He wanted to stand up, but found warmth coming from his arms.

Turning his head to look, he saw the cold beauty who had changed into Kongshan Yueyue's small clothes. She was lying on her side with a peaceful expression, her hands folded on her waist. She was sleeping in a very upright posture. Her eyebrows were very close, her eyes were moving slightly, and she was looking at her. I woke up still dreaming.

"..."

Ye Jingtang was slightly startled, and then a flash of flattery flashed in his eyes.

After all, we slept together so many times. In the past, Ning'er would run away immediately after finishing her work. However, it was the first time in her life that she was still with her when she got up in the morning.

Luo Ning wanted to nurse him back yesterday, but she didn't want him to be tired after a busy day. Basically, he took the initiative from beginning to end. It was impossible to say he wasn't tired. He slept peacefully without any sign of waking up.

Ye Jingtang watched it for a long time and found that Ning'er was sleeping honestly. Although he couldn't bear to wake up the glamorous heroine next to him, the thunder in the yamen hadn't exploded yet, so he definitely couldn't stay in the gentle village anymore, so he wanted to shake Ning'er awake. .

But as soon as his fingers moved, Ye Jingtang felt that this method did not look like a couple. After thinking about it for a while, he cautiously approached and said good morning...

Bo~

Luo Ning was lying on her back and dreaming. The dream was not a shameful scene, but the leader of Pingtian who suddenly came to the door and caught him in action. Yunli also stared at her angrily. She was protecting the little thief and trying to explain. ——It sounds like a nightmare.

Before the dream could be explained clearly, Luo Ning discovered that the little thief in the dream was crazy and started to eat her, the leader's wife, in front of the leader of Pingtian, which made the leader of Pingtian's face turn green with anger...

"Hmm~..."

Luo Ning's eyelashes fluttered and she woke up, feeling a little dazed. Then she felt a clear touch on her lips, confirming that this was not a dream. She trembled slightly in shock, quickly looked around to find Leader Pingtian and Yunli, and then reacted Coming over, murderous intent appeared in his eyes again.

thump--

Ye Jingtang, who was full of affection, thought that Ning'er would look at him shyly when she woke up, but it turned out that he had really thought too much.

The moment Luo Ning woke up, she pushed Ye Jingtang down to the side. She raised her hand to touch the soft sword at her waist. She found that she was not wearing a skirt and looked around again:

"You little thief, today I..."

Ye Jingtang quickly raised his hands, turned over and sat up:

"It's dawn, get up quickly, the maid will be here later."

As he spoke, he put on his robe with lightning speed.

Luo Ning held Sanchi Qingfeng in her hands with a look of shame in her eyes. She wanted to beat the little thief a few times, but she was afraid that Sanniang nearby would hear it, so she decided not to do it.

Sanniang knew that Ye Jingtang had worked hard yesterday, and Hu Meizi was probably very tired, so she was very considerate. She took Xiuhe to her aunt's yard early so as not to disturb Ye Jingtang's rest, and also asked the kitchen to prepare breakfast in advance. .

But bringing breakfast to the room to serve the young lady, when you think about it, you know it's impossible. If you want to eat, you can serve it yourself.

After Ye Jingtang finished washing and eating, Luo Ning hadn't finished dressing up yet. Maybe she was afraid of being bumped into and was too embarrassed to come out together. He didn't stay long. After saying hello, he came to the west house.

It was early in the morning. If Xiao Yunli wanted to play mahjong, he probably didn't have a maid to hold the table. At this time, he had just gotten up and was practicing his sword on the viewing platform beside the lotus pond.

But Zhe Yunli was wearing a small undershirt, dressed like a scholarly lady who never left home, and her sword practice was to fan landscapes, which looked quite awkward.

Niaoniao always slept in the latter half of the night. Before she could wake up, Yunli took her out and lay directly on the beauty's bed, falling asleep unconsciously.

Ye Jingtang came to the verandah, picked up Niaoniao and put it on his shoulders, looking at Xiao Yunli who was practicing his swordsmanship meticulously:

"Zhe Nuxia, don't you feel awkward wearing this outfit when practicing sword practice?"

Zhe Yunli slowly used a round fan to make a virtual step to hide the sword, and blinked:

"Is it awkward?"

Ye Jingtang smiled and said: "You should be more elegant in your appearance. You dress like a lady and speak with a gangster air. Outsiders will know that there is something wrong at a glance."

After all, Zhe Yunli is also a top-notch daughter in the world, but she is usually naughty. When Ye Jingtang saw her, she felt that she did not look like a lady, so she stood still and gracefully, waved the fan lightly in her hand, and looked shy and resentful. road:

"I think Brother Jing just doesn't care about me. He doesn't usually see me. When we meet, he just says that I'm not good, that's not good. If Brother has such an attitude, it's better to just ignore me." …”

"grumble?!"

Niaoniao, who had been sleeping like a piglet, was frightened and woke up. He raised his eyes and looked at Zheyunli blankly, probably meaning - what kind of monster are you? Bring back the poached eggs!

Ye Jingtang really didn't expect Zhe Yunli to be able to do such a trick. His eyes were filled with wonder and he raised his hand:

"It's a bit much..."

Zhe Yunli turned away: "Look, I'm impatient again. I knew my brother would be like this. If I don't behave, my brother thinks I'm a rough guy; if I behave myself, my brother thinks I'm squeamish..."

what the hell……

Ye Jingtang opened his mouth. After holding it for a long time, he couldn't say anything, so he cupped his hands and said:

"Farewell."

"Hmph~"

Zhe Yunli's eyes were full of anger, he snorted softly, and continued to practice his sword skills...

…

At the beginning of the month, I was recommended again, and I couldn’t ask for leave, but if I didn’t finish a big plot in one go, I wouldn’t dare to go into the main plot, so I had to keep working on my daily routine, and I really couldn’t write it this way.

I'm taking a day off tonight, I'm so sorry or2!
