Chapter 21: Avoid suspicion
After confirming the revolutionary partners, they woke up happily and returned to Fengtian Palace.
Fengtian Palace is not guarded by the palace guards, so he comes and goes freely.
Along the way, he couldn't help but recall what happened in Yupeng Palace just now.
In Qi Xing's opinion, Pei Qinghe is beautiful, well-behaved, and smart. Even the Sea King is almost moved.
If they really could return to modern times, even if Pei Qinghe was pickled up by the water from the smelly river, he would be willing to marry her. Who doesn't like interesting souls?
The moonlight was hazy. As soon as I stepped into the yard, I woke up and saw someone not sleeping in the middle of the night and sitting quietly in the pavilion in the yard.
He walked closer and took a look.
Oh, it turns out it is the younger sister's brother.
Under the pavilion, the moonlight shone through the branches, and the mottled slants on him, sprinkling a hazy halo.
Qi woke up and slipped over, stood on tiptoeing under the steps, and saw his little sister's brother playing chess and playing chess with him.
This guy is really interesting.
It seemed that because of feeling her arrival, the little sister's brother waved to disrupt the chess game.
The ancients were all the same, pretending to be deep!
Qi Xing didn't care. He walked up the steps in three or two steps, rushed to Xiao Tanji, leaned over, shook his hair, and smiled evilly at him: "Brother, your sister is good--"
After saying that, he patted Xiao Tanji's shoulder.
The drunk Prince Guo is not as romantic as him.
After seeing his presence, Qi Xing turned around with ease, and exposed his back to Xiao Tanji without any warning.
He didn't see the murderous intent flashing in Xiao Tan's eyes at all.
Tsk tsk.
What bad thoughts can Xingxing have?
I was so happy to wake up, so I wanted to come over and be a slut.
How could Xingxing know that Xingxing almost became the dead soul under the sword of the Great Demon King?
-
The next morning.
Pei Qinghe got up early and went to Fengtian Palace. Behind her was a little palace maid, who was holding a food box in her hand.
In fact, Pei Qinghe didn't want the palace maid to follow her, but the wound on her arm had not healed yet and could not carry heavy objects.
She took the food box to the side hall, and happened to run into Xiao Tanji who had just left the room, and she walked towards him.
"Brother, morning."
She ordered the little palace maid to hand over the food box to Xiao Tanji.
The little palace maid looked at Xiao Tanji and was stunned. She walked forward with a blushing face, lowering her eyes and daring to look at him.
Why haven’t I heard of Princess Qinghe having such an outstanding brother before?
Xiao Tanji didn't like her eyes, and lowered his eyes to cover the anger in his eyes.
"How did the princess sleep last night?" he asked Pei Qinghe.
Speaking of this, Pei Qinghe remembered that she had something she had forgotten to tell Qi Xing last night. She pondered for a moment, frowned and said, "I didn't sleep well! I've been nightmares!"
She made an excuse for herself, "Brother, you can use breakfast first, and I will go to Master Hongyi to discuss Taoism."
After saying that, she asked the little palace maid to return to Yupeng Palace to wait for the waiter.
The little palace maid left reluctantly with her head hanging down.
Pei Qinghe then looked around at the houses in the side hall, thinking about which place would be Qi Xing's residence. At this moment, she saw Qi Xing walk out of a house.
She was delighted and subconsciously wanted to walk over, but was stopped by an extra arm in front of her.
She looked at the owner of her arm.
Xiao Tanji was still wearing a mysterious suit today. His handsome face made people unable to take his eyes off. He reminded her: "The princess is not inconvenient to go forward."
Pei Qinghe stared at him in a daze.
Why didn't she know that she was inconvenient to step forward?
The man's sharp eyes seemed to have seen her thoughts and added: "He is a close minister of the emperor, and behind the princess represents the princess's mansion."
Pei Qinghe was shocked.
She had forgotten this point, and her emperor uncle was suspicious. If he knew that she was very close to Qi Xing, she and Qi Xing would be suspicious.
Pei Qinghe thought about this, and his puzzled gaze then fell on Xiao Tanji's face.
Why did he remind her?
Could it be that she was moved by her recent concern for him?
"Thank you brother." She thanked him sincerely.
After saying it seriously, under his slightly improved expression, she turned around without hesitation and ran towards Qi Xing without looking back.
Xiao Tanji stood alone at the air outlet, and a trace of surprise broke out on his cold face.
-
Pei Qinghe forgot to tell Qi Xing how to deal with floods yesterday.
When she found Qi Xing, Qi Xing had just walked to the front hall.
She called him out loud, and he smiled as soon as he saw her.
Pei Qinghe remembered the reminder Xiao Tanji had just given her, and respectfully walked forward to Qi Xing and saluted: "Qinghe has met Master Hong Yi."
Qi Xing was slightly stunned, and then he noticed that many Taoist priests and servants around him were quietly looking at them.
He stretched his face and took off his style as a Tianshi, "The princess doesn't have to be too polite."
Pei Qinghe looked natural: "Tianshi, Qinghe always couldn't sleep soundly today. I would like to ask the Tachishi for some questions."
Qi Xing nodded: "Prince, please go into the inner room and talk in detail."
The two avoided the palace eyeliner and came to the inner room, where a small Taoist boy stood.
Qi Xing found a reason to help him, "Fu Sheng, go outside and guard me. My master should do the trick for the princess, and never let someone come in and disturb him."
Fu Sheng put down the porcelain bottle that had not been wiped in his hand, "Yes."
After saying that, he stepped out.
When the inner room was left, only Pei Qinghe and Qi Xing were left. Qi Xing relaxed. He shrugged his shoulders and asked Pei Qinghe with a smile: "Xiao Qinghe, are you asking me for trouble?"
"..." Xiao Qinghe?
Pei Qinghe was not in a hurry to correct him, but just asked him for pen, ink, paper and inkstone.
Qi Xing didn't understand why, but he still brought her what she wanted.
Pei Qinghe knelt on the futon at the desk, spread the paper on the table, and wrote down the method of treating floods in the font that the person in his previous life taught her.
Qi Xing looked at her side, looked closer and looked at her words a few times, and couldn't help but smack her tongue, "Sister, let's just say that the words written by my resentful brother who went to kindergarten are better than you."
Pei Qinghe thought about his words, "Do you still have a younger brother?"
"Birth of the stepmother."
Pei Qinghe nodded, reminding him while writing: "You are from the palace and you can't be too close to me, otherwise you will have trouble."
Qi Xing disagreed, "I am alone in a foreign land and miss my family more during festivals. I will admit it if I have any trouble!"
Pei Qinghe stopped the pen in his hand and looked up to warn him: "You will die miserably!"
Only then did Qi wake up did he realize that she was not scaring him.
He frowned in distress, for a moment, and didn't know what he remembered. His eyes lit up and he squatted down and asked Pei Qinghe: "Have you ever been in love?"
"ah?"
"If someone finds out that you and I are too close, you say you have a crush on me."
Pei Qinghe didn't react, "What?"
Qi Xing couldn't help but bounce her forehead, "Stupid! If someone asks why you got close to me, you will say you like me and want me to be your minister, and I will never obey!"
Pei Qinghe stared at Qi Xing directly when he heard this and stopped talking.
Qi Xing was a little confused by her, "What are your eyes?"
She still looked at him quietly.
Qi Xing was stimulated by her calm vision and pulled her up without saying a word.
