Wende Bridge and Tianshui Bridge, as their names suggest, are both on the riverside in the capital. The difference is that one is upstream and the other is downstream. The distance is not close.
Ye Jingtang led the horse and walked quickly through the bustling market and quiet side streets. After walking for half an hour, he returned from the back streets of Tianshui Bridge to the Pei family alley.
Pei Xiangjun was sitting on the horse. Because there were pedestrians on the roadside and there was a distance from the Night Terror Hall, it was not easy to talk about everyday things. He had been secretly thinking about messy things.
When the horse stopped outside the gate with the lantern with the word "Pei" hanging on it, Pei Xiangjun jumped off the horse and straightened his skirt:
"Jingtang, come in and sit down. I'll tell you something."
"Well……"
Ye Jingtang felt a little hot in his chest and abdomen. Inexplicably, he kept recalling the impact of Benben's balls, Luo Nuxia's shy humiliation, Sanniang's bare-shouldered look back...
Hearing Sanniang's voice, Ye Jingtang came back to his senses and turned around to look:
"What's the matter? Why don't we just talk here?"
Just as Pei Xiangjun was about to enter the Prince Consort, he stopped when he heard these words and showed a sour look in his eyes:
"Eager to go back to accompany Miss Ning'er?"
Um.
Ye Jingtang didn't know why, but he really wanted to hold Luo Nuxia and chat, but when he saw Sanniang's resentful look, he immediately suppressed his thoughts and followed him up the steps:
"It's already night. If you go in, there might be someone listening. Let's just talk here."
Pei Xiangjun thought about it but didn't insist. He folded his hands on his waist and looked at the alley in the distance, secretly formulating words.
Standing next to Sanniang, Ye Jingtang couldn't help but glance at the perfect plump curve behind her waist...
I still recall the feeling of my hand that I accidentally held last time...
Under the illumination of the dim yellow lanterns, the full moon behind the waist is as round as the Mid-Autumn Festival...
Night Terror Hall raised his hand by mistake...
Snapped--
There was a crisp sound.
Pei Xiangjun was deep in thought when he heard applause from behind and looked back blankly:
"What's wrong?"
Ye Jingtang rubbed his hands on his face, his eyes were a little frightened, and he pretended to be cold and looked around:
"Well...it's summer, are there mosquitoes?"
"Why are you slapping yourself in the face when there are mosquitoes? It's really..."
Pei Xiangjun looked around outside the door, but he didn't notice any "buzzing buzz~" movement. Suddenly he noticed the Night Terror Hall next to him. He turned around and looked at the couplets next to the door with bright eyes.
??
Pei Xiangjun followed and looked at it, slightly confused:
"Jingtang, what are you looking at?"
I don’t know either!
Ye Jingtang didn't dare to look at the beautiful lady next to her who could kill a man in three steps. She stared at the couplet thoughtfully:
"This handwriting is really extraordinary. It looks like it was written by a famous artist..."
"I bought it for a few coins on the street, and it was made by a famous person."
"Really...the beams here look a bit old..."
Pei Xiangjun looked at Ye Jingtang looking around, a little confused, shook his head and said:
"Let's talk about business. I told Aunt Qi today that when you went out this time, you met a chivalrous girl from the Pingtian Sect and you liked her very much..."
"What did aunt say?"
Ye Jingtang felt restless and panicked all over, so he sat down on the threshold, and his eyes were right on the round figure behind Sanniang's waist.
?!
Ye Jingtang wanted to stand up, but found that his sword was tense and he could no longer stand up...
Pei Xiangjun didn't notice the strangeness in the Night Terror Hall. He stroked the hem of his skirt and sat side by side on the threshold, resting his elbows on his knees and supporting his chin. He looked at the dim yellow lanterns shaking under the eaves with a smile on his face.
Very helpless:
"Your eldest aunt said that our Pei family has treated you badly. If you have someone you like, you can't force him to stay, but the Pei family can't live without you. So let me quickly find someone in the building and promise it to you. Alas... Qinglong Hall is like this
There are several girls waiting to be married, tell yourself, who do you have your eye on?"
When Pei Xiangjun said this, he glanced at Ye Jingtang secretly, trying to figure out what he meant, but he found that Jingtang was staring at her lips intently...
?!
Pei Xiangjun's apricot eyes widened a little, but he was a little panicked. He sat up a little straighter:
"I am you...don't let your thoughts wander."
Ye Jingtang wiped his face and fidgeted:
"No, no, how could I want to do something with Sanniang in order to prove that I won't abandon the Pei family... It's all thanks to Sanniang."
Pei Xiangjun blinked his eyes, hesitated for a moment, and then said: "But what your aunt means is to let me... let me keep you. What do you think I should do?"
"Life-long matters should be decided by Sanniang herself. I...I can do it..."
"You can do this?!"
Pei Xiangjun's eyes widened, and you could see the shock in his eyes.
"No, no, I mean..."
Ye Jingtang felt that he was a little drifting, and he kept talking about everything he thought. He suppressed his distracting thoughts and organized his thoughts:
"Well... everyone has a love for beauty. I helped Sanniang, and Sanniang was very considerate to me. I must be more than just 'chivalrous'... But I still hope that Sanniang can look at these things from her own perspective.
Think about it, don’t just think about the external reasons such as Honghua Building. Imagine if there was no matter about Honghua Building, no aunt urging you, and you were just an ordinary daughter, would you be so anxious, thinking about wronging yourself and leaving me here?
Pei family?"
"..."
These words can be said from the bottom of my heart.
Pei Xiangjun had met Ye Jingtang not long ago and had a good impression of him. However, because Ye Jingtang did not live in the Pei family, he did not even have many opportunities to interact with him, so he only stayed together for a while while taking the boat.
Ye Jingtang's unparalleled excellence indeed made her want to stay by her side all the time, but her original intention was because she wanted to help Honghualou and the Pei family. It was not clear whether she had any affection for her children in her heart.
Seeing Ye Jingtang being so frank, Pei Xiangjun blinked his eyes, revealing a hint of complexity. He held his chin and looked at the swaying lantern under the eaves:
"Jingtang, I really saw you right... I know you won't abandon me, but the more this happens, the more I feel in my heart that I owe you something, just like getting something for nothing..."
Ye Jingtang knew that Sanniang was feeling restless and wanted to enlighten her with a few words, but now all she could think about was 'enlightenment'!
Completely unable to organize his thoughts, he could only beat his knees with his hands and look left and right.
Pei Xiangjun thought about it for a thousand times, and realized that Ye Jingtang was in a hurry to leave, and he felt a little resentful:
"Are you so anxious to go back to accompany Miss Ning'er?"
"I……"
Ye Jingtang wished he could hug the three ladies next to him. This spring hair was too sudden, and he gradually realized that something was wrong.
He is by no means such a lustful ghost. The problem can only arise from the medicine he just took...
medicine……
A flash of disbelief flashed through Ye Jingtang's eyes, and he turned around:
"Sanniang, have you drugged me?"
"Huh??" Pei Xiangjun's expression was filled with resentment.
"I know Sanniang is here for Honghualou, but how can you wrong yourself and do such a stupid thing? Alas, the matter has come to this, I... I bah! What nonsense was I thinking..."
??
Pei Xiangjun looked at Ye Jingtang's weird appearance with an incomprehensible look:
"Jingtang, calm down...what medicine did I give you?"
Ye Jingtang touched his face: "It's the medicine just now, I feel... um..."
Only then did Pei Xiangjun notice that Ye Jingtang's face was a little red. He raised his hand and touched it with the back of his fingers - his cheeks were hot and his breathing was as hot as an emotional bull.
?!
Pei Xiangjun's eyes were stunned. After thinking about it for a moment, he understood something and raised his eyebrows:
"This witch!"
"Um?"
Ye Jingtang turned around and said, "What kind of witch? The medicine that Sanniang gave me was given by the witch?"
"What kind of medicine did I give to you? Why did I give it to you?"
Pei Xiangjun was very serious and took out the medicine box:
"This medicine was prescribed by Pingtianjiao Hu Meizi. I saw her pulling Mrs. Wang and prescribing this medicine. I said I would give it to you. Her reaction was quite strange and she refused to give it. No wonder...it turns out...
With this kind of attention!"
Luo Nuxia?
Ye Jingtang quickly shook his head: "Impossible."
Pei Xiangjun gritted his teeth and said: "Before I entered the door, I heard someone say, 'Pretend you don't know anything, wait until he comes to get close to you, and then do it...'. I didn't understand what this meant at the time, but now I understand. She was doing it on purpose.
Hanging on you, pretending to be distant from others, and then secretly drugging you so that you can't help but force yourself. In this way, you are in the wrong, she can continue to act coldly, and you have to coax her..."
Ye Jingtang waved his hand and said: "How is it possible? Luo Nuxia is very pure, not such a woman."
"you……"
Pei Xiangjun saw that at this time, Ye Jingtang still trusted the leader's wife so much, his eyes were aggrieved and resentful, as if looking at an unknown person who betrayed his heart:
"You mean I lied to you? If you believe her, I'm just talking nonsense, right?"
?!
Seeing that the situation was not good, Ye Jingtang comforted her softly:
"No. There must be a hidden secret in this matter... I'll go back and ask, and I'll explain it to Sanniang tomorrow..."
Pei Xiangjun quickly stopped Ye Jingtang, his eyes angry:
"You are not allowed to leave!"
Ye Jingtang wanted to get up, but found that standing was inconvenient, so he sat down again:
"I'll just go back and ask about the situation..."
"You still need to ask in this situation? She obviously wants to drug you. You've already taken the drug, why don't you let her control it when you get back? With the way you are now, I'm afraid you will agree to whatever Hu Meizi says..."
Pei Xiangjun gritted his teeth and said righteously:
"I can't let you fall for it!"
To be honest, Ye Jingtang now hopes that Luo Nuxia deliberately drugged him, so that when he returns, he can do anything...
But seeing Sanniang’s aggressive look, if he dared to leave today, Sanniang would hang herself at the door. She could only raise her hands:
"Okay, I'll go back after the medicine wears off. Hmm...does Sanniang have an antidote? I can't control my thoughts now, for fear of offending Sanniang later."
Pei Xiangjun looked around: "How could I prepare such an antidote... I see that your eyes are clear, and it doesn't look like you've been hit by an aphrodisiac. It should be... it should be able to suppress it, right?"
Ye Jingtang took a breath, his breath was hot:
"When Sanniang enters the room, I can hold her down. If you sit here, I..."
Pei Xiangjun understands the meaning, she is too sexy...
But what should I do if you run away when I enter the house?
How could this foxy Pingtian Sect do such a thing?
Fortunately, she was smart and stopped the medicine, preventing Jingtang from falling into the trap...
But I was shocked. It was not for nothing that I had been miserable all night...
Pei Xiangjun felt that it was not right to sit like this and rolled his eyes:
"How about...you go find Prince Jing?"
"..."
Ye Jingtang thought this was a good idea, but he immediately suppressed his distracting thoughts and thought to himself: This medicine is really powerful, how could I pay such attention...
The two of them fell silent.
Pei Xiangjun's expression was really strange. Before he could think of how to deal with this situation, footsteps suddenly sounded at the entrance of the alley.
The two of them turned around and saw a woman in green clothes and a curtain hat appearing at the entrance of the alley, looking inside.
Ye Jingtang looked happy, as if he had seen a savior, and hurriedly waved:
"Nv Luo...wu——"
Pei Xiangjun's face darkened, and he quickly covered Ye Jingtang's mouth, trying to hide it inside the door, and whispered:
"Are you still shouting? Are you careless?"
Ye Jingtang was hugged by Sanniang and dragged directly to the door. Half of the body fell into Sanniang's arms.
Pei Xiangjun was in a hurry to hide from the leader's wife, but he didn't notice anything wrong with his clothes...
"ah--!"
Pei Xiangjun trembled in shock, and quickly let go of Ye Jingtang, holding his clothes with both hands, his face turned red, and his eyes were filled with fear and anger.
Ye Jingtang's thoughts were wandering and he stood up:
"Sanniang, you know, it's really not my fault... I was drugged."
"..."
Pei Xiangjun's apricot eyes widened and his eyes were very complicated. When he saw Ye Jingtang was about to leave, he gritted his teeth and stepped forward, directly hugged Ye Jingtang's arm and pulled him through the door:
"You are not allowed to follow her. I am doing this for your own good. You cannot fall into her trap!"
I go……
Ye Jingtang's arms were clamped and his legs were no longer functioning. He said with a pleasant expression:
"Sanniang, calm down. If you keep doing this, I will do something stupid."
Pei Xiangjun's eyes are determined, and I'm afraid it means - it's better for you to do stupid things in Honghua Tower than to fall into the trap of the witch from Pingtian Sect!
Pei Xiangjun's face turned red, and he pulled Ye Jingtang into the house with force, and tried to close the door:
"Come in!"
"Sanniang, calm down..."
The Night Terror Hall still has its senses, so it dares to close the door to Nuxia Luo, so it can only block the door with its legs in despair, waiting to be torn apart by the two...
