Reminiscing about the past, they do have some old times.

The memories of the past surged in my heart and heated up my heart.

Pei Guichen raised his eyes and saw Abao standing so close to him. Her eyes were still warm and clear.

But the brightness of unreserved trust and joy that I always had for him when I saw him was replaced by undisguised disgust.

The silence was accompanied by the dull pain of an old wound in his heart, and Pei Guichen chuckled to himself.

But, reminiscing about the past? Reminiscing about the past fifty years would only make her hate him more.

After a pause, Pei Guichen said in a hoarse voice: "In my previous life, I heard that there was a group of portraits in the secret room of Zhenguo Temple, which were related to Yuan Chenji. Later, after several years, I finally found out that they were altered by Yuan Chenji."

"Yuan Chenji? That old man?" A Bao frowned and said in a vigilant tone, "Since he has reformed you, you can just ask him. Why go to all that trouble to come to me?"

"Yuan Chenji has other plans." Pei Guichen's cold eyes were fierce for a moment: "I always have to keep a backup plan."

It was indeed what Pei Guichen would do. But Yuan Chenji had ulterior motives towards the Pei family? A Bao asked suspiciously, "Is it because of the Mirror Stand?"

Hearing this, Pei Guichen felt an even greater pain in his heart.

She did, indeed, know him well.

"During the underground cave in Fuxianjian, Yuan Chenji deliberately concealed the lethality of Xianzhi, and the mirages that trapped the soul on Mingjingtai..." Pei Guichen no longer concealed: "If it weren't for the coincidence, you broke into Mingjingtai and accidentally saved me again."

After a moment of silence, Pei Guichen clenched his wounded hands in pain and looked at A Bao.

Hearing this, A Bao just sneered: "Really? Then I am really, so unlucky."

Pei Guichen took the initiative to ignore Abao's ridicule and looked at a white porcelain bottle next to the piano table: "In my previous life, I found it, which can restore the man in the portrait to his original appearance. However, I was unable to open the secret room of Zhenguo Temple in my previous life. Because..."

"Because I'm dead. Of course it can't be opened." A Bao said indifferently.

Pei Guichen paused because he was choked.

Ah Bao frowned, and suddenly realized something was wrong: "Pei Guichen, when did you find these secret room portraits in your previous life?"

But Pei Guichen seemed to be thinking about something, and asked tentatively: "You don't know about this?"

A Bao was even more puzzled, "Pei Guichen, what you mean is - I should have known."

But why does Pei Guichen think so?

But Pei Guichen just handed over the white porcelain bottle and asked, "Would you like to see who the man in the portrait is?"

Of course she wanted to see them. She had been familiar with the men in these portraits for a long time.

Then, the bright red mucus in the white porcelain bottle painted out the true face of the man in the navy blue brocade robe.

It turned out to be...

"It is indeed Yuan Chenji." Pei Guichen's cold eyes suddenly darkened.

Ah Bao stared at the handsome man in brocade robe in surprise, trying very hard to merge him with Yuan Chenji, the little old man who always had a weird smile, into one person.

After a long time, Abao failed.

Frowning in confusion, she murmured, "Pei Guichen, is there something wrong with your eyes..."

"Or do you think I'm blind?"

"If he is Yuan Chenji, why is there your Pei family's snake pattern embroidered on the edge of his robe sleeve?" A Bao asked, clenching the dagger.

She would never make a mistake.

"Yuan Chenji once owed the Pei family a favor." Pei Guichen thought thoughtfully and said angrily, "That favor was for Pei Qin's sister."

"Is it the Concubine Pei?" A Bao finally pieced together the story.

After Emperor Xianling abdicated, the successor to the throne, Emperor Daqi, did have a Concubine Pei who was extremely powerful, but she later died in an extremely strange way.
