"What?"

After Pei Ji'an's words came out, everyone was taken aback. Pei Chuyue's eyes widened, and after realizing it, she was both happy and surprised: "Brother, why did you suddenly think of giving me a marriage?"

Pei Chuyue and Princess Li Changle of Guangning are companions, and the Pei family is related to the eldest grandson's family by marriage. It can be said that they grew up playing together since childhood. In Pei Chuyue's eyes, the princess Li Changle is kind, beautiful, innocent and lovely, and her elder brother Pei Ji'an is personable, capable of both civil and martial arts, and is a first-class Biren.

Pei Ji'an has taken good care of Li Changle since she was a child, and Li Changle is also willing to get close to Pei Ji'an. The two of them have always been the golden boy and jade girl in Pei Chuyue's heart. Not only Pei Chuyue thought so, but the adults were also happy to see the results. The saint Tianhou acquiesced in allowing the princess to get close to the Pei family, and the elders of the Pei family also turned a blind eye, just waiting for the little princess to reach Ji.

The two have similar family backgrounds, talented and beautiful, and childhood sweethearts. It seems that all the difficulties and obstacles in the world will be detoured for them. They just need to push the boat along the way and wait for that moment to come.

The two children could also feel the attitudes of the people around them. Although Pei Ji'an hadn't expressed his liking for Princess Guangning in the past, when being teased by his elders and friends, he still had a tacit attitude. Pei Chuyue thought that the elder brother and the princess would go on like this, until one day, the saint Tianhou was happy and decreed to marry them. Since then, the relationship between her and the princess will be closer.

Unexpectedly, the elder brother would be so sudden and take the initiative to ask for a marriage.

Gu Peishi also looked at Pei Ji'an in surprise. With the status of the Pei family, whether it is Princess Shang or marrying the prince, it is more than enough. But getting married to the royal family is not an easy job, especially for Princess Shang. It would be fine if the princess is educated and reasonable, but if there is an arrogant and domineering person who does not obey women's morals, it will be a toss.

On the one hand, Gu Pei felt sorry for her nephew, on the other hand, she also felt that it was delicious. Pei Ji'an could casually talk about marrying the princess, as if he could easily get the princess as long as he mentioned it. Thinking back on the situation of her family, Gu Pei felt a little delicate in her heart.

Gu Mingke is about the same age as Pei Ji'an, and it's time to talk about marriage, but Gu Mingke's marriage is a big problem. Gu Pei, a small family, looked down on her, but a noble girl of the same family would not be willing to marry a sick child. Daughters like princesses and princesses are also a good choice. Gu Mingke is weak and quiet, and marrying a strong wife is good for both parties. However, with a few men from the Pei family in front, Gu Mingke will not be able to turn in any case.

Gu Pei's family disliked the decline of the Gu family and the lack of population, but on the other hand, they couldn't let go of the Gu family's family status. The Gu family is the real scholarly family. The most prestigious families in Dongdu are all nouveau riche in front of the Gu family. Gu Pei's conflicts were like this, and he was unwilling to give in to any aspect. Therefore, Gu Mingke's marriage was delayed year after year.

Now Gu Mingke is eighteen and not yet engaged. This age is nothing to a man, but compared with his peers, it is not too early. Gu Peishi didn't think about this at first, but when she heard Pei Ji'an said that she wanted to ask for a marriage, she suddenly felt uncomfortable.

Gu Peishi also said: "Yes, Dalang, why do you suddenly think of giving a marriage? You are only seventeen this year, and there is no rush to start a family."

Pei Ji'an shook his head. In his previous life, he also felt that he was not in a hurry. He and Li Changle had been together for many years. In addition, the sage and the queen love their daughters and want to keep the princess for a few more years, so they have not granted a marriage for a long time.

There is no one in Luoyang who is unaware of this matter, and everyone tacitly agrees that the Pei family did not propose marriage to Pei Ji'an, and the palace did not recruit a son-in-law for the princess. Everyone quietly waited for the little princess to grow up, but in the end, a person who did not abide by the tacit understanding was killed out of nowhere.

Li Chaoge came back and fell in love with Pei Ji'an. Pei Ji'an didn't take it seriously at first, even if Princess Anding grew up among the people, she was still a princess. In matters of marriage, the man has absolute sovereignty. If he is not willing, can the princess still grab it by force

Who would have thought that it would be possible.

Pei Ji'an regained consciousness from the memory of his previous life, seeing his aunt and sister looking at him strangely. Pei Ji'an quickly covered his expression, and said as if nothing had happened: "Late will change. Although my marriage with Guangning has been agreed for many years, it is a verbal agreement after all, and there is no documented will. Since both parties intend to facilitate this marriage, It should be sooner rather than later, let’s make a decision as soon as possible.”

After all, Gu Peishi is an aunt, and seeing that Pei Ji'an insisted, she couldn't persuade her anymore. Pei Chuyue was originally the number one fan of the princess and her brother. When she heard that her brother was going to marry Princess Guangning, she almost jumped three feet high: "Okay! That's great, the princess is going to be my sister-in-law! I'm going to tell my mother This is good news!"

Pei Chuyue was in a hurry, she stood up and ran out, she moved so fast that she flipped the cushion. Gu Pei's heart was full of mixed feelings, she stood up holding the fan, and said: "This girl is always restless. I'll go and see Ah Yue, you two brothers talk slowly."

Pei Ji'an got up and sent Gu Peishi out. He stood at the door, the early spring sun shone on him, even the light was cold. Pei Ji'an was in a daze for a while, thinking to himself, Li Chaoge returned to Luoyang in the 24th year of Yonghui in his previous life, and now it has only been 22 years in Yonghui, which is two years earlier than in his previous life. In this life, Pei Ji'an married Li Changle early, and when Li Chaoge appeared, the two of them had even finished their wedding. In this way, Li Chaoge can't rob his sister's husband.

The tragedy of his life began when he was entangled by Li Chaoge. In this life, he will correct all mistakes from the source, and the two of them will never meet again.

Today Pei Ji'an was distracted frequently. He stood still, regained his trance consciousness, turned and walked back. When he turned around, he saw Gu Mingke standing not far away, looking at him calmly.

Gu Mingke didn't say a word, but Pei Ji'an felt nervous for no reason. It seemed that all of Pei Ji'an's secrets and longings were invisible to the other party.

Pei Ji'an was inexplicably flustered. He forced a smile and said, "Cousin, is there something on me? Why do you look at me like this?"

Gu Mingke shook his head slowly. He glanced at Pei Ji'an lightly, and said: "Once a marriage is proposed, there is no turning back. Have you thought it through clearly?"

Pei Ji'an's eyes dodged inexplicably. He remembered the tragedy of his previous life and clenched his fists. When he raised his head, his eyes were firm and decisive: "This is natural. Princess Guangning and I are childhood sweethearts, and we are in love with each other. It is my lifelong wish to be married to her as soon as possible. .”

Pei Ji'an didn't know that Li Chaoge had also been reborn, but Gu Mingke knew. Gu Mingke and Li Chaoge didn't meet much, but Gu Mingke can probably guess what kind of personality she is based on the few two sides before. With Li Chaoge's nature, when she came to Luoyang and found out that Pei Ji'an and Li Changle had already been married, she would definitely not let it go.

Gu Mingke thought about Li Chaoge's temper, and felt a headache. However, he went down to earth to help Pei Ji'an overcome the calamity, smooth sailing is not calamity, only the ups and downs, after going through the heat and cold, can truly temper the mind. Gu Mingke wanted to ensure Pei Ji'an's safety, but he couldn't let him live too smoothly. It would be a solution for Li Chaoge to give Pei Ji'an some adjustments.

Gu Mingke had already anticipated what Pei Ji'an would encounter in the future, but it was good for completing the task, so Gu Mingke didn't remind Pei Ji'an, and acquiesced: "Okay, you just don't regret it. I wish you all the best."

Pei Ji'an got the first blessing for his and Li Changle's marriage, which was obviously what he wished for in his previous life, but when he really heard it, he didn't seem as happy as he imagined. Pei Ji'an smiled lightly, and said, "Thank you, cousin. I also wish my cousin can find a family member as soon as possible, and stay with him for a lifetime."

Gu Mingke looked at Pei Ji'an quietly, and said, "You don't have to thank me."

He wasn't blessing Pei Ji'an, what did Pei Ji'an thank him for? With this bit of skill, why not think about how to deal with Li Chaoge.

Calculating the time, Li Chaoge will probably arrive in Luoyang soon.

Pei Ji'an didn't know Gu Mingke's true thoughts. He looked at the noble and noble cousin in front of him, and was moved in his heart: "You are welcome, cousin. I will remember your kindness to me and Guangning for the rest of my life. I have nothing to worry about." The only way to repay him is to wait for my cousin and sister-in-law to get married in the future, and I am willing to do the work of a dog and a horse."

Gu Mingke smiled very lightly, but didn't answer, and Pei Ji'an didn't care either. Although Pei Ji'an was talking about his cousin, he knew in his heart that Gu Mingke would not get married.

In the previous life, Gu Mingke died of illness early before getting married. In this life, even if Pei Ji'an is reborn, it will not change the person who is destined to die early. His cousin will not appear anymore.

Pei Ji'an already knew the result, so these words were just mentioned casually, and he didn't really take them to heart. It didn't take long for Pei Ji'an to completely forget about Gu Mingke, and instead devoted himself to the next hunt.

Not surprisingly, this will be the engagement banquet between him and Guangning. Pei Ji'an has protected Li Changle for ten years, and it has become instinctive to be kind to Li Changle. In this life, he wants to give his little princess a perfect engagement banquet.

In early February, there was a snowfall a few days ago, and the weather that had just warmed up became cold again. However, the early and late spring cold can't stop the Luoyang people's love to go out. In the early morning, the Dingding gate is full of people. Cars and horses filled the streets, vendors yelled, children cried, and the team leaving the city moved slowly amidst the noise.

Bai Qianhe reined in his horse and stopped in front of the city gate. Seeing the grand occasion inside, he said in shock, "What's going on? Why are there so few teams entering the city, but the people leaving the city are so crowded?"

Sitting on the horse, Li Chaoge looked up at the city gate of Luoyang. Hearing Bai Qianhe's voice, she came back to her senses and said, "What's so strange about this. Dongdu is different from other places. In ordinary cities, farmers and traders drive I go to the city to do business, so more people go into the city than go out, but in Luoyang, livelihood is not the top priority, fashion is. Perhaps some family wants to go out of the city today to play, and it attracts so many people follow suit."

Bai Qianhe was still amazed, he grew up in a small place and didn't understand the preferences of people in the capital. He originally stopped in front of the city gate, but there were too many people coming out of the city, so he kept backing away, and finally he was squeezed to the side of the road. Bai Qianhe was speechless, and said to Li Chaoge: "Sister, I spent the money, and I also delivered Dongdu, can you let me go? You see, Dongdu is right in front of you, and the city is too congested. So I won’t send my sister into the city anymore. Let’s take a step ahead for my brother, and we will bid farewell.”

Bai Qianhe took a step back tentatively as he spoke. Seeing that Li Chaoge didn't respond, he was about to drive away when he suddenly heard Li Chaoge say, "Do you know how to deal with escaped prisoners?"

Bai Qianhe paused, but Li Chaoge didn't look back, and continued to say unhurriedly: "Dali Temple should be more refined, most of them are handcuffed and shackles, and I'm too lazy to waste that effort, I usually break my legs directly. If you don't obey , then break the tendons of the arms and legs. Anyway, if it got into my hands, it would be impossible for me to get out alive."

Bai Qianhe abruptly stopped his movements, he held back for a while, and couldn't bear it any longer and said: "Girl, what did I provoke you for? Why do you insist on troubling me?"

"I'm not looking for trouble for you." Li Chaoge kindly stretched out his hand, motioning him to look at the city gate, "It's Dali Temple looking for trouble for you. In the next life, if you seek revenge, don't go to the wrong place, remember to go to Dali Temple."

When Bai Qianhe saw the arrest warrant in front of the city gate, he almost vomited blood with anger: "You dragged me away for so long because of just 10,000 yuan? Isn't it just 10,000 yuan, can I give it to you?"

"No. Old man Zhou said that no meritorious deeds will not be rewarded." Li Chaoge said as he came over and clasped Bai Qianhe's hand, "I have something to do later, don't waste time, hurry up and follow me to Dali Temple."

How dare Bai Qianhe be caught by her, he jumped off the horse and ran out like a loach. This woman is very evil, she can't beat her, she can't even run. According to Li Chaoge's disapproval, she will definitely send him to prison. Bai Qianhe I was famous, even if he died, he would die under the sword, what's the matter if he was beheaded by the government

Bai Qianhe is good at lightness kung fu, he exerted all his strength, but Li Chaoge couldn't restrain him for a while. Li Chaoge's anger was also aroused, she threw off the horse and made a real effort to arrest Bai Qianhe.

The two of them were fighting, when suddenly there was a loud sound of gongs at the gate of the city. The officers and soldiers in the red crotchless robes pushed away the common people, and abruptly cleared a way: "Get out of the way, get out of the way quickly! The saints go out, and the idlers leave."
