Chapter 1087 1088 [Who pities a shadow]

When the sky is dim.

Pei Yue slowly opened his eyes, the graceful fragrance filled the tip of his nose, and his whole body seemed to be surrounded by a gentle sea.

Gently turning her head to look, she saw Gu Zhen's soft black hair pressed flatly under her head, leaning against her side tightly. There was still a bit of exhaustion on her fair face, as if she was still worried about his safety in her sleep.

After returning home yesterday, he talked about parting with his wives and concubines, and asked the imperial doctor specially sent by the palace to check the injury and change the dressing. Pei Yue went to bed early, and he didn't even know when Gu Zhen came in to sleep with him. For For Pei Yue, who has always been extremely vigilant, this is a very rare situation. On the one hand, he feels at ease in the house, but on the other hand, he is too tired and trapped during this period.

It's just that this sleep was not comfortable.

He saw many people in his dream, such as Pei Zhen, Silent Cloud, Chen Xizhi, Wang Pingzhang, etc., and even crazy people like Li Zijun who should have been forgotten long ago.

There were also many flashes of swords and bloodshed, and the past flashed through his mind like a slideshow. This strange feeling made Pei Yue wake up several times in the second half of the night, thinking that he had reached the end of his life.

"Ms. sir..."

Gu Zhen's lazy tone rang in her ears.

Pei Yue looked at her sleepy eyes and smiled: "It's still early, why don't you sleep a little longer?"

Gu Zhen stretched out her right arm to hug him, carefully avoiding the injury on his left shoulder, and murmured: "I wake up at this time every day. But my husband is busy outside and cannot eat well, nor can he sleep well. , the whole person has lost a lot of weight.”

Pei Yue leaned over and kissed the tip of her straight nose, and said with a smile: "I am lean. Although I look thin on the outside, I am full of energy. If you don't believe it, I will discuss it with my fourth brother after he comes back. , let you see my husband’s current strength.”

"I believe it." Gu Zhen couldn't help laughing, and said: "Everything in the house has been fine during this period, but everyone is worried about you, so the atmosphere is a bit dull. But now that my husband is back safely, it will naturally calm everyone's hearts. I Yesterday, I discussed with Sister Ye and planned to take out a sum of money from the official account and use it as reward money to give to the guards and domestic servants. After all, they have been working very hard these past few months."

Pei Yue blinked and said, "It's up to you to decide these things. Speaking of which, I used to be afraid that you guys wouldn't be able to get along peacefully, but now it seems that I'm overthinking it."

Gu Zhen rolled her eyes at him and said, "You still behave well when you get an advantage, huh."

Pei Yue took advantage of the situation and moved over.

Gu Zhen gently pushed his cheek and whispered: "Ms. sir, I have something serious to talk to you about."

Pei Yue smiled and said, "You say."

Gu Zhen said: "I remember there was a summer resort by the Qishui River in the southern suburbs of Kyoto. Last year my husband took them to live there for a while. Seeing that midsummer has arrived, the heat is rising in the city. Sister Ye, Sister Lin and Taohua don't like the heat. , how about we wait for my husband to finish the things at hand in two days, and our family will go outside the city to relax, how about it?"

Pei Yue turned his head and looked at her sparkling eyes, feeling extremely at ease in his heart.

In fact, these beauties at home must be very concerned about his situation outside, and also want to know the inside story of all the chaos that has happened in the city recently. But from the time he returned home yesterday until now, they have never asked, they only care about whether he is tired. tired.

Gu Zhen's suggestion now is just to hope that Pei Yue can relax a little and create a peaceful harbor for him.

The so-called Jieyuhua is nothing more than this.

Pei Yue hugged her tighter and said softly: "I can't leave Beijing in the past two months, so I can only take you out to relax at a later date."

Gu Zhen was smart and smart, and she had been exposed to it since she was a child. She immediately reacted and said in shock: "Ms. sir, there was an explosion in the palace..."

Pei Yue nodded and sighed: "Your Majesty's time is running out."

Gu Zhen raised her hand to cover her mouth, her eyes widened involuntarily, gradually revealing a worried look.

She knew very well that the complicated relationship between Emperor Kaiping and Pei Yue was far beyond what ordinary monarchs and ministers could summarize.

Pei Yue did not explain the details to her, but only said with relief: "Don't worry, I met His Majesty yesterday. He understands my thoughts and difficulties, and will not target me like before. Don't talk about this anymore, you can sleep a little longer."

Son, I’ll go to Ye Qi’s place to have a look.”

Gu Zhen sat up with only her small clothes on, and said softly: "I don't understand the things outside, and I won't give you random advice. In short, my husband is so powerful, no matter what trouble he encounters, he can handle it properly.

I just hope you don’t have to work so hard.”

Pei Yue held her catkins and said, "What are you doing up here? Just call the maid to come in."

Gu Zhen shook her head with a smile and said: "You are my husband-in-law, isn't it natural for me to serve you? Although the maids are diligent and quick, I don't want them to come in now."

Pei Yue knew that she was referring to the fact that she often traveled outside and had very little time to stay in the mansion. In addition, there were many family members in the Hou's mansion now, and there might be more in the future. The time the two of them spent together in private was actually limited, so he would cherish it even more.

at the moment.

He did not refuse Gu Zhen's help in changing his clothes. He looked down at her long eyelashes and said, "I will stay in the capital for a long time this time. I have a lot of time to accompany you, sister Zhen'er."

Gu Zhen couldn't help but kiss Xia Fei's cheeks, lowered her head and said, "Didn't you say that you won't call me sister anymore?"

Pei Yue leaned over and touched her lips, then smiled and said, "I've been used to it for so many years. I'm afraid it will be difficult to change."

Gu Zhen couldn't help but smile, recalling the first time she heard his voice in Dingguo Mansion. Although she didn't accompany him through all kinds of ups and downs like Ye Qi did over the years, she still had many unique and warm memories.

With eyes full of tenderness, he said: "Then I won't change."

After leaving the west wing of the main house, Pei Yue did not go to the east wing, but went straight to somewhere in the mansion.

Qingya Xiaozhu.

It was almost midnight, and the little maids responsible for sweeping the courtyard had already started busy. When they saw Pei Yue strolling in, they all stopped to salute.

Pei Yue all nodded in greeting. When he entered Ye Qi's residence, he found that it was extremely quiet. There were several maids with worried faces standing in the corridor. After seeing him, they seemed to be hoping for a savior, but they did not dare to speak without permission.

Pei Yue asked softly: "What's wrong?"

An eldest maid replied: "Master Hou, Madam has not slept all night. No one is allowed to come in and disturb her, and the maids are not allowed to report to the Marquis."

Pei Yue frowned slightly, waved his hand and said, "I understand, you go and ask the kitchen to prepare some food and send it over."

"Yes, Lord Marquis." Fuli, the maid, withdrew.

The Zhongshan Marquis Mansion covers a large area, and all the buildings have generally maintained their original appearance without many changes. Only Qingya Xiaozhu is different. Pei Yue designed it according to his own ideas and consulted Ye Qi.

He rebuilt it after receiving his opinion. The reason may be that he wanted to retain some memories of his previous life. Every plant and tree here hides his past preferences.

What's commendable is that Ye Qi also likes the style here.

Although Pei Yue's soul does not belong to this world, he was surprised to meet Ye Qi, not only because of her appearance and martial arts, but more importantly, the two people's three views are very consistent.

In his impression, Ye Qi likes to wear a simple bun, rides a horse and wields a spear like a man, and has a heroic and otherworldly appearance. His charming temperament, like a clear spring in the mountains, can be easily recognized even in a huge crowd.

However--

After walking around the screen, Pei Yue was slightly startled. He looked at Ye Qi, who was sitting quietly on the wicker chair in front of the window. He saw that her black hair was like a waterfall, her eyes were picturesque, but her body was filled with irresolvable sadness.

From the time they met, got to know each other, and then stayed together, Pei Yue had never seen her show such an attitude.

"Ye Qi." He slowed down and walked over, calling softly.

Ye Qi had naturally sensed his arrival a long time ago. Hearing this, he turned his head and looked at his husband, then rested his head on Pei Yue's arm, his eyes slightly lowered and his hands clasped his knees, and he said slowly: "She's gone."

Pei Yue said: "Yes."

After Ye Qi received this affirmative answer, her fingertips unconsciously pinched her palms, but she seemed unaware and only said: "I thought I wouldn't be sad..."

Pei Yue sighed softly, put his arms around her back and knees, and picked her up.

Sit on the same chair together.
