Views:

Pei Moning was obviously shocked by Yang Zijin's words, "What? I... I'm just that child! So, doesn't my identity also mean that I am the princess?"

"Really?" Yang Zijin had already expected this reaction from her eldest brother. After all, when she first learned about her identity, she was also confused.

At that time, Pei Moning nodded suddenly, "So that's the case. No wonder the Spring Breeze Ten Miles will be reduced to ashes overnight. It turns out that the people in Duke Fu's Mansion can't tolerate them."

"Just to protect those girls, he just opened the house to clean up the house! Since the Spring Breeze Ten Miles Storm, there has been very little movement in the Duke's Mansion for the time being. He is afraid that one day he will relax for a moment and let the Duke's Mansion take advantage of the loophole. , he was afraid, or they would make a fuss out of Peach Blossom Three Miles again! That’s why he asked his eldest brother to return to the imperial city to help him find a solution." Yang Zijin told Pei Moning the reason.

Pei Moning nodded, "Yes, Zijin values friendship so much. Brother is right. In this case, brother will stay in the imperial city and carry it with me."

"Is it true? Brother agreed to this?" Yang Zijin asked again in disbelief with excitement on his face.

From what she thought, the eldest brother was used to being free in the world, so how could he accompany her to stay in the imperial city where everything was restricted? She didn't expect that the eldest brother would agree so readily.

Seeing Yang Zijing's reaction, he said angrily, "Of course it's true. When did brother lie to me?"

"It's true that brother feels sorry for him. It's better to be wrong." Yang Zijing leaned on Pei Moning's shoulder as he spoke.

Pei Moning scratched his nose at Yang Zijin and said with a smile, "Of course, who asked me to deny him his sister!".

"Shh..." Hearing Pei Moning call her sister, Yang Zijing quickly put her legs to her mouth.

Seeing Yang Zijin so nervous, Pei Moning smiled knowingly.

When the two were chatting happily, A-yin brought the wine and food into the yard, took them out one by one and put them on the table, filling them with wine.

"Sir, if you don't mind me, I will call him again and he will be waiting outside the door." Ah Xian confessed.

Yang Zijin nodded.

After A-yin retreated, Pei Moning picked up the glass of wine and said, "Come on, let them drink it and get drunk tomorrow!"

"Well, okay." Yang Zijin raised his cup and was about to drink when he suddenly remembered Uncle Liu's instructions not to drink alcohol while taking the antidote.

Seeing Yang Zijing raising his glass but not drinking, Pei Moning asked, "What's wrong?"

"Brother, I'm afraid Mingyue can't drink with me anymore." Yang Zi said carefully as he put the cup in his east leg.

Pei Moning frowned slightly and asked worriedly, "Why? Are you feeling unwell?"

"It's not that he's not feeling well, but he was poisoned before, so he shouldn't drink alcohol." Yang Zijing lowered his voice.

Hearing this, Pei Moning stood up again and raised his voice, "What? Poisoned?"

Yang Zijin looked outside the east courtyard and motioned to Pei Moning to lower his voice.

"Can we find the antidote?" Pei Moning had to lower his voice and asked when he saw Ah Xian outside the yard.

She nodded and replied, "Yes, I'm taking the medicine and there's no serious problem."

"Do you know who the doctor is? Tell me, he skinned the man with his legs during the engagement." Anger surged into Pei Mening's face again. If he dared to touch his sister, Dongchang would definitely not have an easy time.

Seeing the anger on his eldest brother's face, Yang Zijin said, "He knew that his eldest brother was protecting him, but the matter was not as simple as they thought. At first, he had concluded that someone was responsible for the poison, but he didn't know the motive. When he found out the reason, the eldest brother would It’s not too late to move your legs!”

"Then I beg you to be cautious in everything, and know that it is easy to hide from an open gun and hard to guard against a hidden arrow!"

"Brother is wrong, Zijin has forgotten. Come on, brother, keep drinking, don't spoil your fun." As he said this, Yang Zijin refilled the wine glass.

Pei Moning took it with a smile but said nothing.

At this time, I was thinking, based on Yang Zijin's current situation, she was not good at archery. Even if she was careful, someone would not be able to make a stumbling block secretly. If she asked Yang Zijin to resume her status as a princess, she would definitely be blocked. Some people's way.

Let’s not talk about that for now, Yang Zijin has regained her identity, please let people know that she has lived in a dirty place since she was a child! By then, there will be more than one Duke of Mu, and I am afraid that in order to protect the royal face, the emperor will make Peach Blossom Three Miles disappear overnight like Spring Breeze Ten Miles!

It seemed that he wanted to protect Yang Zijin and the girls, and thought of a long-term plan to stay in the imperial city, and let those who were thoughtful know not to touch them easily.

After much thought, he decided to use his power in the world to open a martial arts gym in the imperial city first, and then make other plans when everything was settled.

Just like that, Pei Moning drank the wine in the glass. He did not tell Yang Zijin his plan, and then chatted and laughed with Yang Zijin.

Naturally, Yang Zijin didn't know that Pei Mening, who had always liked to be alone, would make her decision to settle in the imperial city. His sworn brother would protect her in this way, and it would be many years before she found out.

After having enough wine and food, Pei Moning was already drunk. Yang Zijin put him down and it was getting late. He also asked Wu'an and Liufu to take good care of him. She would come early tomorrow. After explaining, she returned to Shuohou Mansion.

Returning to the courtyard, he still saw the door of Qiao Shu's courtyard tightly closed. He must have been unable to get out of his way to Shuohou Mansion now. Yang Zijin smiled and walked into the courtyard. He would talk a lot with his elder brother tomorrow, and he would help her. Go, she can relax her tense heart a little.

Early the next morning, Yang Zijin came to Taohua Sanli and looked around the backyard but did not see Pei Moning.

Then he called A-Xian, "Where is brother? Did you tell me?"

"Master Pei left early in the morning." Ah Xian replied.

Yang Zijin asked again, "Then what can he leave to the east?"

"Say no, let the young master not worry. He just wants to do something and he will be back in a few months." Ah Xian scratched his head and said.

Her eldest brother was always quick to do things, and she had long been used to it.

Yang Zijing walked alone under the peach blossom tree in the front yard and took out the antidote he had brought with him. If he took the medicine tomorrow for the third day, the toxin would be completely eliminated in a few days.

Just as he was about to go to the backyard to rest for a while, he heard a familiar voice coming from the door, "Oh, that place is really grand! It's not bad, it looks much bigger than our Fengyue Rugui, isn't it? Girls?" "

"No, Mother Lin."

"Isn't that right! The gate looks impressive."

"Mother Lin, I want to buy a big house anytime soon!"

All the girls responded one after another...

Yang Zijin followed the sound and saw that the charming proprietress had arrived with her girls.

She stood up and greeted him with a smile, "Aunt Mei, he thought it would take us two days to arrive! He didn't expect it to be so soon."

"Of course, after receiving my letter, he rushed to the imperial city non-stop. Huh? Why didn't he see Mrs. Yang?" Lin Mei asked Yang Zijin.

Yang Zijin replied, "Aunt Mei, her mother is resting in another courtyard. It was hard enough for her to take care of the spring breeze for ten miles before, but now I want her to have a good rest."

"Hey, Young Master Yang has grown up, and that old Mrs. Yang is looking forward to a blessing!" When she said this, Lin Mei showed a trace of envy on her face.

Seeing the change in Lin Mei's face, Yang Zijin stopped talking about going east and said to the girls behind him, "Sisters are all tired after running around for so many days. Let's go to the backyard to have a rest with him. He asked People prepare meals.”

The girls nodded one after another. The bumpy journey and lack of rest during those days had already made them exhausted. Naturally, they were very happy when they heard what Yang Zijin said.

Along the way, all Yang Zijin heard was the exclamations of the girls...

"Are those flowers? He has never seen them before!"

"There is a three-story pavilion over there. The view from there must be great!"

"Look! Look! There is a transparent house, and the birds inside can't fly out."

"That garden is so big! If I keep walking like that without stopping, it would probably take as long as one stick of incense!"

"Mother Lin, didn't I ask you to settle down in the imperial city? Get one for them too."

Everyone laughed...

At this time, Lin Mei was also amazed by the layout of Taohua Sanli, and nodded repeatedly, "Not long before entering the city, I heard from people outside that there was a Qingguan in the city called Taohua Sanli. The girl was versatile and the layout was grand. When I saw the bright moon, it turned out to be true. ! It seems that my young boss is doing well."

"Aunt Mei was just joking. She was just opportunistic and came up with something new to attract everyone's attention." Yang Zijin looked at Aunt Mei and said.

Lin Mei gave Yang Zijin a red look, "Tsk, tsk, tsk... It will be different when you become the young master. You will learn to be humble."

"Aunt Mei must have heard the rumors outside. Now it's hard to say that the business in Taohua Sanli can be stopped." Yang Zijin looked worried.

"No, he really wanted to ask me about that. How could I be related to that Shuohou?"

"It's a long story. It can be explained clearly in a sentence or a half. Let's rest first. When we have time later, he will slowly tell Aunt Mei."

"That's fine, his old bones are falling apart these days, so why don't you take a good rest?" After saying that, he called the girls into the room to rest.

Yang Zijin watched the girls all sleeping in the east, while he walked on the stone bench in the yard.

A few years ago, Aunt Mei's Feng Yue Rugui was involved in a life-and-death lawsuit. The family that died was a merchant and had a lot of money. They refused to let her go. The government took the money and asked for an inspection of Feng Yue Rugui. When she heard the news, she ran to Paodong's office. In the end, Fengyue Rugui was saved.

After that incident, she mistrusted Yang Zijian in every possible way. Lin Mei was also a sweetheart. She always repaid kindness and had a bold personality. She was hurt by a heartless man in her early years. From then on, the person she trusted the most was a man. After that, she started to have a romantic relationship. , taking in some poor women whose hearts have been broken by men.

That's why Yang Zijin sent a letter and Lin Mei left her hometown and brought the girls to the imperial city.

The reason for letting Aunt Mei come to the imperial city, was Yang Zijin worried that although she had opened the purge hall to whitewash herself and the other girls, if she had to restore her identity by then, it would be inevitable that Guo Mu would be scheming behind the scenes again. .

Aunt Mei has settled in the imperial city. If she finds out that Duke Mu has this idea, she can have the girls immediately move to Aunt Mei. She will once again perform the empty city strategy to save the lives of the girls, and they will not have any more lives in the future. Worried.

Yang Zijin called Lu'an Wufu, "Prepare some more food and bring it to the girls when they wake up."

Wufu and Liu'an responded and went east to prepare.
