On the twenty-seventh of the first lunar month, gifts from all over the country arrived in Dingyuan.
Dingyuan, which has been surrounded by war for several months, finally has a hint of fireworks.
The affairs of the Lu family were basically left to Lu Shu to take care of. Wen Qingzhu concentrated on taking care of Fu Lie while waiting for news from the capital.
"There's still no news from the Emperor?" Fu Lie finished drinking the medicine and looked at Wen Qingzhu holding the letter in his hand.
Wen Qingzhu raised his eyes and shook his head: "No, don't worry. When the matter here is over, I will go and talk to the emperor in person."
Originally he didn't want to mention this matter, but when he thought that it would endanger Wen Qingzhu's safety, Fu Lie couldn't help but mention it.
"Qingqing, Master Wu has already come to see me."
Slowly putting down the letter in his hand, Wen Qingzhu turned around and sat next to Fu Lie, held his hand and said, "Don't worry, there is always a solution to everything."
"But I really can't think of anyone else in this world who can threaten you." Fu Lie's meaning was already obvious. The person with no water fingers was Emperor Zhaowu.
After closing his eyes, Wen Qingzhu stood up and said, "Weizhi, you take good care of yourself. I'll go out and help Sister Lu Shu first."
Turning around and walking to the door, Fu Lie spoke again: "I know you regard him as a relative, but he treats you as -"
"No! I believe him!" Wen Qingzhu turned around and met Fu Lie's gaze with firm eyes.
At this point, Fu Lie couldn't say anything more.
After Wen Qingzhu left, he took out Yang Jiu's letter from his sleeve, which said: Someone in the palace is inquiring about Yun Wan's whereabouts.
At this time, no one except Jiang Yuancheng dared to inquire about Yun Wan's whereabouts.
Since Yang Jiu sent this letter, he must have definite evidence.
There is only one person who can tolerate Jiang Yuancheng doing this.
Fu Lie raised his hand slightly, and then a figure fell beside him. He raised his hand and asked in a low voice: "What are your orders, Master?"
Outside the house, Lu Tao kept pace with Wen Qingzhu.
"Sir, I have received a letter from Xi'er. Your Majesty will be getting married in February, marrying Miss Wei Qinglin, and will hold a ceremony for conferring the title of queen at the same time."
Wen Qingzhu quickened his pace and walked out: "Keep asking Xi'er to send messages. The emperor still refuses to reply. Maybe we should return to Beijing once Sister Shuo's wedding is over."
After leaving Fu Lie, Wen Qingzhu quickly found Lu Shu and asked about Lei Shuo's whereabouts.
"Xiaochuan went out with her and said that a new batch of orchids had arrived from Mrs. Sulu's place and she wanted to see them." Lu Shu pointed to the door.
"Thank you, Sister Shu." Wen Qingzhu turned around and left.
Since the last time Zhi Ta left and Gu Kuo had completely lost his trace, Xia Tian seemed to have made up his mind to cut off all contact with the Huns and had not made any other moves.
Wen Qingzhu walked on the street, looking at the people and merchants coming and going, and he wanted more and more to end the war with the Huns as soon as possible.
After walking a few steps, she suddenly stopped and looked at the entrance of the alley diagonally behind her.
Lu Tao, who was following him, looked at him and said, "Is there something you want to find, sir?"
After searching carefully along the alley to make sure there was no suspicious person, Wen Qingzhu looked back and murmured: "Did I see it wrong?"
Lu Tao became more and more strange and looked around: "Who did you see?"
"I really wanted to see Pei Zhixuan, but she was not here in the blink of an eye. She probably couldn't escape from the Medicine God Valley." Wen Qingzhu continued to walk forward.
Escape from Medicine God Valley? Lu Tao didn't think so: "It's difficult to get in and out of a place like Medicine God Valley, unless someone helps her. There are adults' relatives there, and they won't let Miss Pei out, at least not now."
"That's what you said. Let's go find Sister Shuo first." Wen Qingzhu was not very worried. Even if Pei Zhixuan really came, there would be nothing she could do.
On the street, Wen Qingzhu and Lu Tao entered the inn not long after.
In the alley they were looking back at just now, a woman on crutches suddenly raised her head slowly.
She wears a hat on her head, a veil on her face, and her eyes are too beautiful to ignore.
"It turns out he was at the Border Inn..."
At the door of Nuange, Wen Qingzhu saw Lu Chuan squeezing Lei Shuo's shoulders.
Seeing them coming, Lu Chuan retracted his hand in embarrassment.
After entering the room, Wen Qingzhu sat down opposite Lei Shuo: "How are you feeling these days, sister Shuo?"
"Much better." Lei Shuo still didn't want them to worry.
Lei Shuo, who had forgotten the past, still forgot one thing, that is, she could not deceive Wen Qingzhu.
There was a moment of silence in the room.
Lei Shuo also realized something was wrong, and just as he was about to speak, Lu Chuan already said first, "Sister Shuo is really doing much better! She can recognize me at a glance these days!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the room became even quieter.
At this time, Lei Shuo could only tell the truth: "Sorry, for now, I can probably remember who you are, and what I have experienced can only be remembered within three days at most. Any longer, and I won't be able to remember it. "
"It's okay, let's take our time!" Wen Qingzhu reached out and held Lei Shuo's hand.
When he looked up, he met Lu Chuan. Both of them had worries in their eyes.
Once this weakness is leaked, it can easily be exploited.
It seems that they must take good care of Lei Shuo every step of the way.
Outside the room, stood a maid holding snacks. She listened attentively, frowned slightly, then turned and left.
Lu Chuan had been taking care of Lei Shuo these days. Seeing that he was becoming more and more attentive and skillful, Wen Qingzhu left with peace of mind.
She did not go back to the Lu family immediately, but went to Yonghe Pass.
After searching around but not finding Wushui, he went to Yang Liu and asked, "Where is Wushui?"
Yang Liu immediately slapped his head, his face full of annoyance.
The young general standing behind him quickly stretched out his hand with a smile. Yang Liuxin reluctantly took out the silver from his arms and handed it to him.
"Thank you, General Yang! I'm really embarrassed! I keep winning your money like this." The young general said he was embarrassed, but he took the money very skillfully and quickly.
This scene made Yang Liu feel angry, and he waved his hands repeatedly: "Let's go, let's go! Don't show up in front of me today!"
After the young general stepped back, Wen Qingzhu asked curiously: "What are you doing?"
Looking sideways at the young general's back, Yang Liu said with a livid face: "These people without a sect master always ask other people to come to me to bet. At first, I didn't know that he knew things like a god and suffered a big loss." , this almost cost me a year’s worth of money!”
"Is it just you like this, or have others been tricked by him?" Wen Qingzhu felt that Wu Shui was not the kind of person who would deliberately target anyone.
"Don't mention it! It's just me!" Yang Liu was furious. "I don't know where I offended him. Fortunately, it was just money."
After he finished complaining, he suddenly saw Lu Tao coming from the corner and quickly calmed down his emotions.
Lu Tao stepped forward quickly: "Sir! Miss Lei is missing! General Lu just sent someone to look for you."
"What's going on?" Wen Qingzhu quickly turned around and left.
Yang Liu saw it and hurriedly chased after him: "Why are you leaving right after you arrived?"
Lu Tao explained calmly: "Something happened to Miss Lei."
When he reached the stairs, Wen Qingzhu seemed to have remembered something, and turned to Lu Tao and said, "You stay here and help me pay attention to the Xiongnu's movements."
In order to prevent Lu Tao from misunderstanding, she added: "I just want to understand the Xiongnu's movements as soon as possible."
"Yeah." Lu Tao stopped at that time.
When he looked back at Yang Liu, he found that the corners of his mouth were rising uncontrollably.
Lu Tao immediately rolled his eyes and walked forward. Yang Liu quickly caught up: "Lu Tao, wait for me."
Back in Dingyuan, Wen Qingzhu found that there were no people on the street.
Soon they met Lu Chuan's subordinates and took Wen Qingzhu to join Lu Chuan.
After catching up on horseback, Wen Qingzhu asked hurriedly: "What's going on? Isn't it nice to see you guys in Nuange just now?"
"It's all my fault. Miss Du said that my father's side was showing signs of improvement. I was worried so I went back first. I didn't want to find out that I had been cheated when I met Miss Du halfway. When I rushed back, Sister Shuo was already—"
Lu Chuan held the horse's rein, anxious and self-blaming, and his whole body was in a panic.
Wen Qingzhu suddenly thought of the figure she saw on the street corner before. She looked at Lu Chuan intently and suddenly asked, "Has Pei Zhixuan contacted you?"
"Is it Miss Pei?!" Lu Chuan's eyes widened instantly, obviously not believing it.
Seeing his reaction, Wen Qingzhu knew that Pei Zhixuan had probably contacted Lu Chuan a long time ago.
"There's no need to look for him! He's still at the inn!" Wen Qingzhu turned his horse's head and galloped towards the inn.
In less than a quarter of an hour, they arrived at the inn.
As soon as she entered the house, she met Mrs. Sulu who was about to come out. She quickly pointed upstairs and said: "Miss Lei and Miss Pei, upstairs!"
Lu Chuan's expression changed slightly and he wanted to say something, but Wen Qingzhu had already followed Mrs. Sulu upstairs.
When he opened the door and took a look, he found Lei Shuo and Pei Zhixuan standing up together.
"Qingzhu, why are you back?"
Wen Qingzhu walked in quickly, stood in front of Lei Shuo, looked at her carefully, made sure she was fine, and then looked to the other side.
Pei Zhixuan seemed to have anticipated this situation. She glanced at Lu Chuan who came in later and explained: "I mentioned to General Lu before that I wanted to see Miss Lei alone, but he refused, so I had to make this move. "
"Tell me the result." Wen Qingzhu has known Pei Zhixuan for so long. Although he is very jealous of her, he never thinks that she is a person who can hate because of love.
Pei Zhixuan taking Lei Shuo away alone must be related to Lei Shuo's condition.
Unexpectedly, Pei Zhixuan was a little surprised that Wen Qingzhu didn't call for punishment, but seeing the anxiety in her eyes, Pei Zhixuan was still very envious.
She has never had many friends. To be precise, there is no friend she can't make friends with.
"I've confirmed that it was Pei Yi who did it."
Wen Qingzhu's expression condensed: "It is indeed him!"
When Wen Qingzhu mentioned Lei Shuo before, he mentioned someone named Ji. After thinking about it, Wen Qingzhu found that the only person she could take her heart to was Ji Chun.
According to previous news, Ji Chun should be Pei Yu's man.
But later Pei Yi became the emperor's favorite, and Wen Qingzhu believed that Pei Yi had most likely replaced Pei Yu.
Counting the Jia family, the Asang tribe, and the White Wolf tribe, Wen Qingzhu discovered that Pei Yi knew the Huns better than she thought.
"Miss Pei, I won't ask more questions. Who is Pei Yi?" Wen Qingzhu had never doubted it before, but now she could not understand Pei Yi more and more.
Pei Zhixuan fell into deep thought, and Wen Qingzhu did not disturb her, patiently waiting for her answer.
Finally she decided to tell Wen Qingzhu: "I'm not sure, but after coming to Yunzhou, I roughly understood what my grandfather meant. Pei Yi should be a descendant of Princess Qingyun."
"He is a descendant of Princess Qingyun? Then you, no, you are Pei Yi's mother, and she is a descendant of Princess Qingyun?" Wen Qingzhu never expected that Pei Yi's identity would be so advanced.
Pei Zhixuan thought of her grandfather's current situation, and she had no way out, so she said directly: "Yes, Princess Qingyun was killed by the Huns because she gave birth to a full-term child less than six months after her marriage. "
"Could the child born to Princess Qingyun belong to the Jia family?!" Suddenly, Wen Qingzhu understood everything.
She remembered that before, Jia Er refused to reveal the person behind the scenes no matter what.
Now it seems that Pei Yi and Jia Jia have a very deep connection.
Pei Zhixuan nodded in agreement: "Yes, this is something I only discovered after coming to Yunzhou."
Wen Qingzhu turned to look at Lei Shuo, but he still didn't understand: Why did Pei Yi want Sister Shuo to forget the past
