The Pei family is not a family that doesn't understand etiquette. Li Chaoge helped the Pei family catch ghosts late at night, and indirectly rescued Pei Chuyue, the concubine of the Pei family. They should have bought generous gifts and came to thank them in person. It's late at night, and it's inconvenient for a princess like Li Chaoge to sleep outside, so the Pei family naturally prepared a room for Li Chaoge and Bai Qianhe without saying a word, kindly? Invite your benefactor to stay overnight at Pei's house.
Li Chaoge didn't refuse, it was a tacit consent. Bai Qianhe and Zhou Shao are wandering in the rivers and lakes, it doesn't matter where they live, and Mo Linlang will not raise any opinions. Mo Linlang has always lived in the firewood house in Mo's house, no matter the inn or Pei's mansion, it is a high-end environment that she can't even imagine.
Mo Linlang looked around, and was taken aback when she thought that she would live in such a big house tonight. Pei's mansion occupies a vast area, deep and elegant, and any decoration in the wing room is more expensive than Mo's courtyard. In the past, Mo Linlang didn't even dare to go near official residences, but now, she has to live in the most prestigious family of ministers in the eastern capital.
Mo Linlang herself felt incredible.
Mrs. Pei was worried about Pei Chuyue, but Li Chaoge wanted to stay overnight, and as the hostess, she couldn't leave the princess behind. Mrs. Pei was in a dilemma. Seeing this, Pei Ji'an said, "Mother, go and take care of Ah Yue. I will arrange Princess Sheng Yuan's stay."
Mrs. Pei breathed a sigh of relief, and said: "Okay. Dalang, I am relieved of what you do. Don't neglect the princess and the strong men. I will go first."
Pei Ji'an nodded. Mrs. Pei went to explain to Li Chaoge in person, and said: "The princess is honored to stay on the bed. I should have accompanied me personally, but the little girl is still unconscious. I have to give it to me quickly? She asked a doctor, and I will give it to my mother-in-law later. Report, I’m afraid I won’t be able to accompany the princess. The concubine has arranged for the eldest son to receive you, if the princess needs anything, please tell Da Lang directly, don’t be polite.”
Li Chaoge has always been easy-going with things outside her body. She can't understand the Pei family, but the Pei family is safe and courteous, and Li Chaoge has nothing to criticize about this. Li Chaoge nodded and said, "Madam, it's convenient for you to go, I don't mind here."
"Thank you, Princess." Mrs. Pei said, "Thank you, and hurriedly took Pei Chuyue away. There was so much commotion about the ghost collision, Mrs. Pei was still waiting to reply, Mrs. Pei really didn't have much time to waste.
After Mrs. Pei left, only Li Chaoge, Gu Mingke, and Pei Ji'an were left in the main courtyard. The night wind was cold, Li Chaoge pulled up his clothes and said, "I'm tired, please ask Mr. Da Lang to arrange accommodation as soon as possible."
She didn't want to see Pei Ji'an at all. Pei Ji'an didn't care about her indifference, as if he had forgotten that not long ago, Li Chaoge almost stabbed him to death, and said gently: "Thank you princess for saving my sister's life today. Don't worry, princess, your maid and subordinates will be arranged. Princess, please follow me." Come."
Li Chaoge held the sword and did not move. Pei Ji'an came to his senses and asked the maid beside him to come forward and said: "I was negligent, the princess forgives the sin. Fei Cui, you? Go and wait for the princess to stay."
The maid should be, walked in front of Li Chaoge, saluted and said: "Princess, please come with your slaves."
Li Chaoge's face finally looked good this time, she pointed to Mo Linlang, and said, "Place her next to my room. You can do whatever you want with the other two."
Bai Qianhe didn't care about where he lived at first, he has slept in the wilderness, and also stayed in luxury hotels, what else can't he accept? But when he heard Li Chaoge say "the other two are free", Bai Qianhe was still a little complicated.
Bai Qianhe could understand Li Chaoge's scruples. Mo Linlang was brought up by Li Chaoge. He was only fifteen years old. He was ignorant of human affairs and did not know the dangers of the world. Of course, Li Chaoge had to ensure Mo Linlang's safety. However, he and Zhou Shao also contributed, so don't treat them differently, right
The maid led Li Chaoge and Mo Linlang away, and Zhou Shao and Bai Qianhe also left quickly. The evening wind is blowing, and the wind chimes on the eaves are jingling. Pei Ji'an's skirt fluttered gently in the night wind. He slowly approached Gu Mingke and asked, "Cousin, you? Why are you here?"
If possible, Gu Mingke didn't want to come either. He had to go to Dali Temple tomorrow, and he really didn't want to get involved in the troublesome matter of Li Chaoge and Pei Ji'an. However, after such a long time, Li Chaoge's heart to kill Pei Ji'an is still not dead.
Gu Mingke sensed something was wrong in his own room, and immediately appeared in the main courtyard. At that time, the people in the courtyard turned their backs, and no one noticed that Gu Mingke appeared suddenly. Gu Mingke was about to stop Li Chaoge, but Li Chaoge's sword stopped at the last moment. Gu Mingke stopped his spiritual power and retracted it again.
That's why the female ghost felt a sudden burst of fairy energy, and then withdrew it instantly. The female ghost can't see the depth of Gu Mingke, but Gu Mingke has long known the existence of the female ghost. He also knew that someone had spied on Gu Mingke's fate, but the gods do not interfere in the reincarnation of the six realms, as long as they do not violate the rules of heaven, do not do evil things that harm the heavens and threaten the six realms, the heavens generally do not care about the mortal world.
The fighting of wolves is internal competition, and the change of dynasty is the survival of the fittest. Only when the heavens protect it will there be problems. The ghost is also in the six realms of reincarnation, Gu Mingke ignored the female ghost, as long as she didn't take the initiative to provoke her, Gu Mingke would not chase and kill her. Gu Mingke knew that the female ghost was in Pei's mansion, and he also knew that Li Chaoge and the others were hiding in Pei's mansion. Li Chaoge would never let Pei Chuyue die, so he let them go and let them handle it by themselves.
But if Li Chaoge killed Pei Ji'an, then it was Gu Mingke's business? Gu Mingke's long sleeves were behind his back, and the night wind blew by, making the white clothes flutter. Gu Mingke raised his hand and flicked his sleeves, and said, "I'll come out and take a look at such a big commotion."
Pei Ji'an stared at Gu Mingke closely. There are so many husbands in the Pei family, even the most noisy one, Pei Jihong, didn't show up. If it wasn't for Pei Chuyue and Li Chaoge, Pei Ji'an might not have put himself in danger. Gu Mingke, a cousin who is not considered close, why does he appear at the fighting scene every time at the last moment
And this time, Pei Ji'an still didn't find out when Gu Mingke came in. As if in the blink of an eye, Gu Mingke appeared across the corridor.
This is just Pei Ji'an's suspicion, without any actual basis, Pei Ji'an did not continue to pester, but asked: "Cousin, what's the matter with you and Princess Sheng Yuan? You? You care too much about her, even if she stays here." You can notice all kinds of things.”
It was rare for Gu Mingke to be asked. He looked back, glanced quietly at Pei Ji'an, and said, "Is it difficult? Any normal person would notice it, right?"
Pei Ji'an was suffocated, but he really didn't notice. If it was any other woman, Pei Ji'an would have noticed that it was not safe for her to walk at night, but Li Chaoge was used to walking in the wind and rain, and she was used to it. Pei Ji'an had seen a lot, so she slowly ignored that Li Chaoge was also a woman.
Seeing Pei Ji'an choking, Gu Mingke immediately fell into a feeling of daze and confusion, obviously falling into the memories of his previous life. Gu Mingke didn't want to waste time with him, so he said, "I have to go to Dali Temple tomorrow, so I'm sorry, so I leave."
Pei Ji'an watched Gu Mingke turn and leave with his own eyes. The night wind came gusts and bulged his sleeves, making him look more and more like a fairy under the moon under the moon.
Pei Ji'an has always been in a very contradictory attitude towards Gu Mingke. On the one hand, he feels that this is his cousin. He and Li Chaoge have passed away. He should generously bless Li Chaoge and his cousin; on the other hand, Pei Ji'an can't help being hostile to Gu Mingke , compared with Gu Mingke everywhere.
Pei Ji'an gradually realized that he was just one of Li Chaoge's collections, and now, her new collection became Gu Mingke. Everyone understands rationality, but emotionally, he just can't let go. Moreover, Gu Mingke still has the suspicion of not wanting to be responsible and playing with Li Chaoge's feelings. The anger in Pei Ji'an's heart was always difficult to calm down, but tonight, looking at Gu Mingke's back as he went away, he suddenly realized that he didn't seem to have the right to criticize Gu Mingke.
At the very least, Gu Mingke would notice that her food and clothing are cold and warm, and that it's not safe for her to go out late at night as a girl, but what about Pei Ji'an
He didn't, from his previous life to this life, he didn't have any. In the previous life? They were husband and wife.
·
In the guest room of Pei's house, the maid led the way with a lamp, while Li Chaoge and Mo Linlang walked in the corridor. Mo Linlang couldn't help looking around all the way, pavilions, winding paths, and many courtyards? Everywhere was rich and elegant that Mo Linlang could not have imagined. If it wasn't for the remnants of fighting on his body, Mo Linlang almost suspected that he was dreaming.
In comparison, Li Chaoge seemed much more ordinary. When they arrived at the fork in the road, Li Chaoge said to Mo Linlang: "You? You saved their wife, so you don't have to worry about it. Just stay here with peace of mind. I'm in the yard next to you. If there's anything wrong, just come to me."
Mo Linlang is a fifteen-year-old girl who has never left the house since she was a child. There are many dangers in going out. It is precisely because of this that Li Chaoge endured the repulsion to live in Pei's house instead of going out to find an inn.
Firstly, the inn was closed at this point, and it would not be good for them to wake each other up by going all out, and secondly, the inn was mixed with clouds and dragons, so it would be very troublesome if they didn't go to the room. It is impossible for Li Chaoge to keep an eye on the outside all night. In contrast, Pei's house is at least clean and safe.
Mo Linlang nodded and was taken away by the maid. Afterwards, the maid who called Jade beside Pei Ji'an bowed and said, "Princess, please."
When Li Chaoge returned to the guest room, she took a rough look. Although it couldn't be compared with the palace, the room was elegant and spotless, and there was nothing to be picky about. Li Chaoge said: "Prepare water, I want to take a bath."
The kitchen was ready a long time ago. Fei Cui saluted and was about to go out to order water, but was stopped by Li Chaoge: "I have nothing to do here, you? Go back and serve you? My lords, don't stay with me."
Fei Cui was stunned: "But, Mr. Da Lang said..."
"I don't need his kindness." Li Chaoge's eyes were light, and he quietly glanced at Fei Cui, "Go out."
Li Chaoge didn't want to see Pei Ji'an's person, even if it was just a maid.
Li Chaoge is a princess after all, Fei Cui didn't dare to say any more, crossed her hands and said: "Yes, little girls are rude, if there is any negligence, please princess Haihan."
Fei Cui turned around and slapped the maid behind her: "The princess is a distinguished guest in the house, you guys have to be very careful when you are on duty, you know?"
Maids are also divided into three, six, and nine grades. Fei Cui is a big maid who follows her master, and she also has a small maid to serve her, so she can be regarded as half a lady. And the other people in the room are just ordinary girls doing odd jobs.
The little maids responded tremblingly and escorted Fei Cui out. When they saw Princess Sheng Yuan driving Fei Cui away, they thought she was a hot-tempered master who was not easy to serve. Unexpectedly, after Fei Cui left, Li Chaoge was very talkative and didn't make any comments about bathing, beds, etc. Basically, how did they arrange it? How Li Chaoge used it.
There were no Li Chaoge's clothes in Pei's house, so the Pei family found two brand-new coats and sent them to Li Chaoge for temporary use. Li Chaoge washed off the dust on his body, steamed his whole body, and then came out with his hair tied.
Holding a towel in her hand, the little maid knelt on the bed and wiped Li Chaoge's hair. The maid carefully held Li Chaoge's hair, for fear of hurting the princess. The room was quiet, and the lights crackled. Li Chaoge casually asked, "You? Whose birthday is in the first month in your house?"
"Zhengyue?" This servant girl is just an ordinary second-class maidservant, and it is not her turn to serve such things close to her, but she is suddenly assigned to serve the princess, and the maidservant is trembling all over. Now that the princess asked, the servant girl thought about it and said truthfully, "The birthday of Mr. Dalang is in July, and Mr. Erlang's birthday is in August. They are both in summer. Only the cousin's birthday is on the ninth day of the first month. Princess, why do you ask this?" "
Li Chaoge's eyes moved, she looked calm, and said, "Just asking casually. You? The cousin you are talking about is Gu Mingke?"
"Exactly. Gu Langjun is the only cousin in Pei's mansion now."
It turned out to be him. Li Chaoge was quite surprised. She saw a piece of paper in Pei Chuyue's sleeve just now. She thought it might have something to do with the female ghost, so she hid it quietly. Just now? While taking a bath, Li Chaoge dismissed the maid, took out the piece of paper to read, and found that it was a marriage certificate.
It said the birthdays of both parties. Don't think about it, the woman must belong to Pei Chuyue, but the other one made Li Chaoge very curious.
Pei Chuyue's dark marriage today is probably related to her wish. Li Chaoge knows that there are such customs in some places. If a child dies early in the family, the parents can't bear the child to be alone in the underworld, and usually find a child from other families who died early to marry a ghost marriage, so that the two children can have a companion in the underworld. . Some of them are very shady, and they will find a living person to marry in a shady way, and they will even call their sons back, consummating the marriage between the dead and the bride, with the intention of passing on the family line.
Pei Chuyue was alive and well, but she was tied to the second type. It's just that Pei Chuyue's situation is even more special. She was bent over by a ghost, and was driven by a ghost to get married. If Li Chaoge hadn't stopped her in time, Pei Chuyue would bow down for the third time, and the husband and wife would be married, Pei Chuyue would go to the underworld to find her "newly married man". Li Chaoge was very curious when he first read the marriage letter. In his previous life, he had never heard of Pei's family playing mandarin ducks. Who did Pei Chuyue fall in love with? Knowing that her lover is dead, she still wants to be with him
Li Chaoge tentatively asked the maid of the Pei family, but in the end, he heard a name that he had never thought of.
Gu Mingke.
The maid said that Gu Mingke's birthday was on the ninth day of the first lunar month, which was exactly the same as what was written in the marriage letter. Li Chaoge did not continue to ask the time of birth, it was too obvious to do so, and, with so many coincidences, there will be no more? There is a second possibility.
Li Chaoge waved his hand and said, "Let me wipe my hair, you? You can go down."
Li Chaoge's hair was not completely dry yet, the maid did not dare to disobey, stood up obediently, crossed her hands and said: "Yes."
Li Chaoge sent the servant girls to retreat. After the people left, she got up from the bed, walked to her clothes, and gently took out the bright red marriage certificate.
The light was dim, and the light shone on her side face, like the glaze on white porcelain, smooth and flawless, delicate and clear. The eyelashes cast thin shadows under the eyes. Li Chaoge scanned the words on it again, and the light in his eyes flickered, unfathomable.
Pei Chuyue's dark marriage partner turned out to be Gu Mingke. Li Chaoge was not surprised that Pei Chuyue liked Gu Mingke, it was normal for Gu Mingke's face to provoke little girls. It was just an accident, they got married in the dark.
Only the dead? Can get married. There is no doubt that Pei Chuyue is a living person, but who is the dead person
