A lot of things happened in this day, and Lu Qipei didn't stay in the other courtyard in the end - after she understood Qi Yang's intentions, it seemed too ambiguous, not to mention that she was not at ease with the Lu family, so she firmly refused. .
Qi Yang didn't force it, so he boarded the carriage and took Lu Qipei back in person.
In this regard, Lu Qipei, who had already declined once, had no choice but to let Qi Yang go. But she didn't want Qi Yang to send her home, she still told the driver to send her back to the Hanlin Academy, and planned to go home alone at that time.
The coachman nodded, and Lu Qipei boarded the carriage with confidence, but unfortunately missed Qi Yang's wink at the coachman.
In the silent night, the carriage drove through the bluestone-paved street, and there were few pedestrians on the road.
The outside is already pitch-dark and quiet, and people who ride in the car will naturally not be bored to see such a scenery. Therefore, it will not be discovered that the carriage is not going to the Hanlin Academy, but to the Landing House.
The candles in the carriage were bright and swayed slightly as the carriage drove. Perhaps because of a few glasses of wine before, Lu Qipei leaned on the carriage and felt a little sleepy. Just as her eyelids drooped down, she forced them to open them again, staring blankly at Qi Yang on the opposite side for a while, and then closed her eyes again tiredly. It went on and on, but she never really fell asleep, and she didn't know what she was insisting on.
Qi Yang looked at her and saw her struggling over and over again, and finally persuaded: "If you are sleepy, go to sleep first, and I will call you when I get there."
Hearing this, Lu Qipei raised his eyelids and glanced at Qi Yang. The girl under the lights was enveloped in a soft light, so beautiful that it made one's heart move. But the drowsiness struck again, she finally stopped insisting, closed her eyes and fell into a light sleep at ease.
The other courtyard was not far or near to the Lu family, but Lu Qipei had slept for a long time. When she woke up, she found that the carriage had stopped and stopped, but Qi Yang, who was opposite, was still staring at her, his eyes focused as if he was looking at some peerless treasure.
Lu Qipei sat up straight, and his drowsiness disappeared in an instant. She subconsciously raised her hand and touched her suddenly flushed face. She didn't notice anything, so she secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and then asked, "Have you arrived yet? Why didn't Your Highness wake me up?"
Of course Qi Yang wouldn't wake her up, she wished the two of them could stay together for a moment longer. So after listening to Lu Qipei's question, she just replied calmly: "You just woke up when you arrived, you don't need me to call."
Lu Qipei did not suspect him, nodded obediently, adjusted his clothes and said goodbye to Qi Yang again.
Qi Yang seemed to be a little unhappy with her insisting on leaving, so he just waved his hand to let her go. It wasn't until Lu Qipei got off the carriage, staring at the Lu Mansion in front of her, that she was startled. She suddenly lifted the curtain of the car and said to Lu Qipei, "My handkerchief, I will find you tomorrow to get it."
Lu Qipei turned around and didn't have time to say anything. The curtains of the carriage had been lowered, and Her Royal Highness's carriage quickly drove past her.
She raised her hand and wanted to stop the carriage and say that the handkerchief was on her body after washing, and she could return it to Qiyang now. But the coachman obviously didn't give her this chance. He drove the carriage to run fast, and quickly merged into the deep night, only the sound of hooves gradually faded away.
Lu Qipei was stunned for a while, and when he realized that Qi Yang just wanted an excuse to come back to find her, he could only cry and laugh - she stood under the dim light outside Lu's residence, her eyes were helpless, but the corners of her mouth raised an uncontrollable smile. A small arc, obviously happy. It's just that this good mood disappeared when she turned back to look at the gate of Lu Mansion.
Outside the gate of Lu Mansion, I don't know when there are more figures, Qi Bo stood there like a ghost, and I don't know how long he has been watching.
Lu Qipei's heart sank suddenly, the curvature of the corner of his mouth pulled back straight, and he pursed his lips and walked forward: "Why is Qi Bo here? Now that you are old, and this spring night is cold, you should still be in the room. Just stay there."
Lu Qipei's words were not abrupt. She had a gentle and pure temperament, and she always cared about the people around her without being harsh. This is also what Qi Bo and the others deliberately cultivated. If she hadn't died once, I believe it would be difficult for her to be vigilant against those who watched her grow up.
Qi Bo smiled when he heard the words, and the always serious person seemed to be a little kind at this moment: "Young master won't be back for a long time, I'm a little worried. I saw my son just after I came out, and there was no night wind." Qiyang glanced in the direction where the carriage left, and asked again, "It's just the carriage just now... Which noble lady did you meet, sir?"
He did see it!
Lu Qipei froze in his heart, but his face was still pure and good: "Well, it's a new acquaintance, she kindly sent me back."
Being caught off guard and being sent home directly by Qi Yang, Lu Qipei was not surprised that Her Royal Highness the Princess knew where she lived, but he really had a headache and didn't have time to make up excuses. But what caught her by surprise was what Qi Bo said next. The old man looked at her with a very meaningful look: "Is it just a girl I just met? The concierge said that the carriage had been parked outside the mansion for a long time before."
Lu Qipei was stagnant when he heard the words, and the calm appearance he had originally maintained finally couldn't hold back anymore. She stared slightly at Qi Bo, even if she didn't say anything, the latter could see surprise and surprise in her eyes.
Seeing her reaction, Qi Bo was also slightly startled, and then glanced at her face, and soon found that she seemed to have just woken up. So the doubts were answered, the original guess once again prevailed, and a new plan began to occur in my heart.
But these are things to talk about later, but Qi Bo didn't say anything at the moment, and took the initiative to welcome Lu Qipei into the house.
The previous conversation outside the door seemed to be no different from ordinary, but what happened this morning obviously still needs to be explained. Qi Bo hesitated again and again but still didn't tell Lu Qicheng. After finding a reasonable excuse, he put all the blame on Ah Yu's head.
As for Ayu? Of course she won't live to see Lu Qipei come back!
Lu Qipei was noncommittal after hearing this, but he couldn't help frowning. In addition to disgusting Qi Bo for perfunctory her, it was also because after Ah Yu's death, two new maids were added to her side - Lu Qipei doesn't expect the people around her to be trustworthy at all. The more people are watching, even if she wants to run... Well, she suddenly doesn't want to run so much.
After dealing with Qi Bo and returning to the room, Lu Qipei sent back the two newly arrived maids. After pacing back and forth in the room like a trapped beast for two times, he finally reached out and took out a handkerchief from his arms.
The plain white color, with a few bamboo leaves embroidered in one corner, was the one that Qi Yang gave her yesterday.
Lu Qipei was very tired last night and went to bed early after taking a bath, but she also washed the veil before going to bed. In an accident this morning, she really had the idea of running away. Before leaving, she saw the towel drying here, and she still took it with her.
It's just that she didn't think about it all day. When she saw Qi Yang, she forgot to return it. It was only after the other party left and made a premise that she remembered it. Now looking at the handkerchief in her hand, she couldn't help but think of the owner of the handkerchief.
Her Royal Highness, she is really willful...
From the beginning, Lu Qipei never asked Qi Yang to send her home. With Qi Yang's intelligence, she could not see that she was worried. But even so, she sent her back silently, and even let the carriage stop outside the mansion for a long time.
Lu Qipei understood that Qi Yang did it on purpose, although she didn't know what the little princess meant. But for her, Qi Yang's behavior obviously disrupted her arrangement - with Qi Bo's shrewdness, he had noticed Qi Yang, and he would never let it go easily. Especially since her official position came suddenly, Qi Bo must be very concerned about it. If he knew the identity of Princess Qiyang, the trouble would still be behind.
Anxiously walking around the house a few times, Lu Qipei could almost imagine the consequences of letting it develop. It was an accident that she was recruited as the concubine in her previous life, but this accident prompted Lu Qicheng to kill him, and now the situation is almost the same.
She can be Lu Qicheng's stand-in, why can't Lu Qicheng be her stand-in
Even if Qi Yang already knew her woman's identity, if she could hide it from the sky for a while, she believed that with the means of Lu Qicheng and others, she would be able to stir up the situation in the future. And Qi Yang, who was trapped in it and knew that Lu Qicheng was impostor, was afraid that he would not be able to escape the ending of his death!
Lu Qipei's hand holding the handkerchief tightened unconsciously, and his heart was gradually sinking. No matter how he thought about it, he felt that there was a dilemma in front of him. Do you want her to speak clearly to Qi Yang? Don't be kidding, nothing has happened yet, she hastily said some boundless words to people, even if she is as innocent as Qi Yang, she will not believe it!
Taking a step back, Qi Yang believed in her, but how could she believe that the little Lu family was capable of plotting against her dignified princess? !
This incident is a bit bizarre in itself, and Lu Qipei believes that her judgment is because she is deeply involved in the situation - even if at first she believed that she was only from a wealthy family in the south of the Yangtze River, but after a lot of things happened, she can gradually realize it. wrong.
The Lu family is not as simple as it seems, and Qi Bo is not just a housekeeper!
As for more, how can she know that she is a destined abandoned child
At this moment, Lu Qipei began to feel annoyed that he was too easy-going in the past. Because she is at ease with the situation, she never pays attention to exploring the things around her. It's not that many clues did not appear, but she let them go, and it was only at this moment that she found a blank when she needed to understand.
Once again, she doesn't seem to be much better than before, still weak and powerless.
But no matter what, she couldn't repeat the same mistakes in her previous life... Since Qi Yang was destined to appear in her life, and since the two had to face the doomed crisis, why should the sacrificed one be her and Qi Yang
Thinking of the dead cat he saw this morning, Lu Qipei finally stopped pacing back and forth like a trapped beast.
She was holding Qi Yang's handkerchief tightly in her hand, so hard that her knuckles turned white. The helpless and hesitant eyes gradually condensed, the usual gentleness and pureness faded, and the dark eyes swelled with darkness.
If someone saw it at the moment, I'm afraid it would be praised again. She and Lu Qiqiu are indeed worthy of being brothers and sisters, and they even look like they are ruthless!
