After the man retreated, Zhou Cheng looked in the direction of the palace, his eyes filled with inexplicable emotions. He still remembered that day, although it was late autumn, it was sunny and windy. His father took him and Jin'er to the clouds and mist.

Shan asked Mai about the good times and auspicious days.

At that time, all his eyes were filled with Jin'er's figure, how could he tolerate others? But in a blink of an eye, his dear and respectable father replaced him with a princess, which caused him and Cai to torture each other for so many years.

.

Everything has a cause and a result, and what he was investigating was the reason for the temporary change of candidates that year.

Gu Jinshu sat in the Liao Family Restaurant for a long time, until Ye Qinglin lost his patience: "That man has left Shuntian Fuyin, why don't you leave?"

"……good!"

She thought that he was sitting here motionless because he wanted to get more information, but she didn't expect that this man was actually waiting for her. It seemed that he was not pedantic.

The storm in the capital came and went quickly. When the Pei family came forward and admitted that it was the bandits, many people started conspiracy theories again. The old affairs between the Prince of the East Palace and Pei Jinniang were pulled out one by one. Fortunately,

The Pei family cut their losses in time and made a marriage contract with the Xie family as quickly as possible, and the trend changed instantly.

On this day, several young girls in Duke Pei's residence were sitting across from each other, laughing and joking. One of them, Zhen Xinyu, was the loudest, nagging Pei Yuniang non-stop.

"Xiao Yu'er, I have only been friends with you for a long time, but I didn't know you still had such thoughts."

When she heard that the young lady of the Pei family and Xie Shisan of the Xie family had successfully negotiated a marriage, her head was dazed for a long time, and she even thought she had heard wrong, but she finally succumbed to the reality.

After all, the wind was blowing so wildly that she had no reason not to believe it.

"Can I still break the appointment between my parents and the matchmaker?"

Pei Yuniang glanced sideways and gave Zhen Xinyu a slap in the face, but Zhen Xinyu laughed out loud and glanced at her with soft and affectionate eyes: "Look at how anxious you are.

If it hadn’t been for Fang Xin’s promise, I really wouldn’t have believed it.”

"you……"

Pei Yuniang's eyes were filled with embarrassment. What she was most afraid of was that a few little sisters would make fun of her. Now that everyone saw what little thoughts she had hidden, she was laughing at herself.

Fortunately, Zhen Xinyu was not an unreasonable person. He teased her for a few words and then changed the topic.

"The assassination of your sister has become known to everyone. I'm afraid she won't be able to leave Beijing in a short time!"

"Um."

Pei Yuniang's mood suddenly became a little lower. If it were not for her own fault, her sister would not have entered the capital, and if she had not entered the capital, she would not have encountered such a thing. The bandits are really a group of people seeking death, and they dare to bully the Pei family.

Gu Jinshu, who had been invisible from the beginning to the end, raised his head when he heard these words. There was a bit of unknown light in those bright eyes, like stars that made people dare not look directly.

"Can you find out he's the robber there?"

The world is not at peace now, and the bandits are more rampant than in the past. They dare to intercept and kill the noble family, and they are simply destroying themselves.

"J is said to be a grass bandit from Qinglong Mountain. As for the specific father and brother, he is unwilling to disclose it." The reason why she knew about the bandit's actions was because she accidentally heard it mentioned by the maid around her. Everyone in the family seemed to be keeping this secret.

Gu Jinshu's eyes drooped slightly when he heard what she said, and he saw that the formation was not the work of ordinary bandits. Although Qinglong Mountain was entrenched near the capital, he probably did not have the courage to intercept and kill the hairpin nobles, but this bandit was also

It was the wind released by the Pei family.

What is the truth?

"Okay, let's not get involved in this matter. But since your sister won't leave, can you let us meet her?"

They are all girls in Huaichun. They are very envious of this noble lady who once stirred up the capital and made the prince bow. Now that they finally have such an opportunity, they naturally cannot take it lightly and miss it casually.

"this……"

Pei Yuniang was a little embarrassed. It was just a small friendship. She naturally knew how much her close friends admired her eldest sister, but her eldest sister didn't like to see guests now, so she couldn't force others to do anything.

"When my eldest sister has some free time, I will whisper in her ear."

Looking at the bright eyes of several people, Pei Yuniang did not refuse after all, while Gu Jinshu on the side chuckled secretly. According to Pei Jinniang's current state of mind, these people's ideas may be in vain.

At this time, in the courtyard of the old lady of Duke Pei's mansion, three generations of ancestors and grandsons were sitting quietly together, and the face of Duke Pei gradually emerged. At first glance, he did not look like a handsome man. On the contrary, he was a bit stern and old-fashioned. It was hard to imagine that he could be born.

For a daughter as beautiful as Pei Jinniang, his imposing manner is his own, and his slightly raised brows are enough to make the atmosphere around him freeze.

"You shouldn't come back."

His voice sounded a little cold, but if you taste it carefully, there was also a hint of care. After all, this was his first child and the one he once held dear to his heart.

"I still don't know why the man in the palace wanted to attack me."

Although they were not related by blood, they were still her respected elders, but now this elder wanted her life. Although Zhou Cheng said that it was his mother-in-law who did it, she would never believe such words.

"Don't say that we don't understand the deep meaning here, and your aunt doesn't understand what's hidden in it either." The old lady said lightly, with no hint of happiness or anger on her expression.

At first, the man on the dragon throne really wanted to marry the Pei family, but then everything changed after a trip to Yunwu Mountain. Now they are facing each other with swords, leaving no way to survive.

So, what happened on Yunwu Mountain that year? So much so that he killed a weak woman.

They also understand Jinshang's nature to some extent. Although he is not a kind-hearted person, he is not a capricious villain, but he always feels strangely tight when it comes to dealing with this matter.

"You are staying at the house recently, so don't cause any more trouble."

"Um."

She knew that her grandmother had always been strong. Now that she had made the decision, she could no longer return to Lizhou. Besides, it was a miracle that she was alive this time. If she was attacked again, she might not be able to meet a master like Ran Yichen.

.

Even if she doesn't think about herself, she still has to think about the people she escorts.

"Do you remember the ranger who saved your siblings that day?"

"The man left quickly after rescuing the two of us. I didn't see his face clearly. I only knew he was a man in white."

This was what she and her brother had thought up early in the morning, and Ran Yichen absolutely could not say it out loud, otherwise it would easily cause trouble for herself.

Thinking of the handwriting she was forced to sign, her eyebrows furrowed slightly. She was just a married woman, but if her brother's handwriting were known to the world, then the Duke Pei's palace would be in danger.

"It's a pity."

Duke Pei sighed slightly. He must have extraordinary abilities to rescue the two of them from the hidden guards. It was a pity that such an expert could not be used by him.
