Recently, Pei Jinting got two pieces of news, one good and one bad.
The good news is that because he worked overtime a few days ago and completed all the things the emperor ordered, the emperor was merciful and gave him three days' leave.
It had been a long time since he and Gu Yuanyuan had a meal together, let alone the tenderness between the two.
But the bad news was that he went to Qintian Prison and wanted to choose an auspicious date for the wedding two years ago, but the Taoist priest at Qintian Prison insisted that the auspicious date would be two months later.
Therefore, his wedding date with Gu Yuanyuan was set in two months.
There is no such thing as a monster.
He almost demolished the Qintian Prison.
After all, he wanted to give Gu Yuanyuan a decent and grand wedding. If the Qintian Prison was demolished, things would inevitably get into trouble, and those rumors would not be thrown at him.
It will only pile on Gu Yuanyuan's head.
He could only renovate his house in preparation for the wedding, and at the same time, he thought about taking advantage of the three-day holiday to take Ayuan out for some relaxation.
I was thinking about what reason I should use to lure Gu Qingyuan out of the hands of my father-in-law, Zhen Guogong, for three days.
There I met Prince Jing, who was dressed in a coquettish dress.
"Pei Xiaosan, you were also left behind? Hahahaha..." Zhao Xiaoqi made an unpleasant mocking sound.
Pei Jinting was already feeling a little unhappy because of the wedding date. When she heard Prince Jing's laughter, she raised her eyebrows and there was an imperceptible anger in her voice.
"What does it mean to be left behind? Do you think I am the same as you..."
As he spoke, he walked away from Prince Jing with a cold face and his hands behind his back.
Zhao Xiaoqi frowned, thought for a while, and clicked his tongue twice, "Pei Xiaosan, if you weren't like me, you should be drinking wine and eating roasted venison at the village outside the city."
.”
Pei Jinting's expression froze for a moment, then he quietly raised his eyelids and said, "I am different from you. I work on errands every day. How can I be as idle as you?"
"What? You were left behind? You really deserved it."
Zhuangzi outside the city?
Could it be that Gu Yuanyuan went to live in Zhuangzi outside the city?
That means Gu Yuanyuan went with others.
Who is that? The girl from the Qin family went together?
Out of the corner of his eye, he caught Zhao Xiaoqi's doubtful gaze, coughed slightly, and said in a nonchalant voice, "What are you looking for me for? Do you want me to take you to Zhuangzi outside the city?"
The voice is neither salty nor bland, but it implies showing off.
Zhao Xiaoqi snorted softly when he heard this. Originally, he heard that Pei Jinting had not left the city and wanted to come over to find some sympathy for others.
Unexpectedly, this person stabbed his heart twice.
After returning to Beijing, he went about his business as before, meeting the newly elected oiran, but for some reason, it was boring.
The beauty of the courtesan is beautiful, but it has a fake flavor.
Qin Xiang's face often appeared in his mind.
The more I want to wave away, the more it pops out from time to time.
Especially on the way back to Beijing, they were alone day and night.
Recently, he was forced by his family to marry a new wife. He resisted in the slightest, but his mother-in-law and concubine just stared at his way of eating, drinking and having fun, and compared him with Pei Jinting, which made him miserable.
If you want to blame it, it's Pei Xiaosan. He used to live like him, but now he's changed, let alone going to Hualou.
All the new wives, folk girls, etc. that he snatched in the past turned out to be fake.
It's so abominable.
He clearly promised to be good brothers for life.
The more Zhao Xiaoqi saw Pei Jinting, the more he disliked him. Before that, he went to Gu's house and used Gu Shao's name to find out about Qin Xiang.
Unexpectedly, what they got was that Qin Xiang and Gu Qingyuan went to Zhuangzi outside the city to stay for a while, and took a look at the tenants in Zhuangzi celebrating the New Year.
Zhao Xiaoqi shook his head, then looked at Pei Jinting and sighed, Pei Xiaosan was better off than him.
"Pei Xiaosan, it's better for you. No one is urging you to marry a wife. This wife is about to be obtained."
Pei Jinting frowned, no matter how hard he heard this, he didn't like it.
He nodded calmly, "Yes. I'm going to Zhuangzi to accompany my wife. You can go home."
He consciously and considerately cared about Zhao Xiaoqi. Unexpectedly, Zhao Xiaoqi chuckled and took a step forward, "It's not fun for you to go to Zhuangzi alone at this time. I will sacrifice my life to accompany you."
"Let's go quickly before it gets dark and the road becomes difficult."
Pei Jinting, "..."
He slowly walked out of the Yamen Gate, got on his horse, raised his chin slightly, and looked at Prince Jing calmly, "You want me to take you there, right? Then you can lead the way."
If Zhao Xiaoqi knew that Gu Yuanyuan and the others had gone to Zhuangzi, they must have inquired about the news.
Then let him lead the way.
Seeing that Pei Jinting was about to take him, Zhao Xiaoqi quickly got on the horse, held the reins and urged, "Hurry up then."
The two of them rushed out of the city with a group of guards.
Gu Qingyuan indeed took Qin Xiang to Zhuangzi.
There was an endless stream of people coming to visit these days, and Gu Qingyuan was very annoyed.
There are also people from the Ming family who send Ming Wei to visit Gu Qingyuan from time to time.
Her impression of Mingwei is good or bad.
Regarding Uncle Ming's matter, she didn't want to take her anger out on Ming Wei. That was not her fault.
Moreover, when Mingwei came to the door for the first time, he already said that he had no choice but to ask Gu Qingyuan to bear with him.
In order to avoid these troubles, Gu Qingyuan simply told Gu Shao to live in Zhuangzi and wait until the New Year before returning home.
At that time, each family will be busy celebrating the New Year and will not be able to come to the Zhenguo Palace again.
No matter how relaxed you are in Beijing, it is still not as good as going out.
In the past few days, Gu Qingyuan, besides going from house to house to see the tenant farmers celebrate the New Year, she took Qin Xiang up the mountain.
In winter, although the grass and trees are withered, there is still a different kind of beauty.
Moreover, they crawled without warning and walked like this. At night, they actually ate more and slept more soundly than before.
They even picked a handful of wintersweets in the mountains and found a bottle to put them in.
Another guard hunted pheasants and hares, and the two sat in the backyard eating barbecue and chatting in the evening.
When Pei Jinting and Zhao Xiaoqi arrived, they had already had some drinks.
Several empty bottles were placed crookedly on the ground.
When she saw the person coming, Gu Qingyuan hadn't called Pei Jinting's name yet. When Qin Xiang saw Prince Jing, he looked like he was on the boat and rushed out before everyone could react.
