The villain is far from my CP!

After He Cheng took the order to leave, Qi Changting went back to the study.

The boy pressed the switch on the light stand, and the bookshelf turned away, revealing an extremely hidden compartment.

Inside was a light blue brocade box quietly placed.

He wiped his hands with a towel before carefully taking out the box. After opening it, there was a slender feather lying inside.

From the tail to the tip of the feather, the ink is gradually dyed, which is extremely elegant.

The root of the feather has been cut into a delicate wedge shape, and because it has been soaked in ink for a long time, the ink is fragrant.

This is something she carried with her, and now it is considered a token for giving it to him as a birthday present, and she clearly said she liked it that night, why...

Qi Changting thought of the girl's back in the daytime, and lowered his eyes slightly.

Why is she avoiding him again?

He used to worry that the girl liked him too much, but he couldn't guarantee to give her the future she wanted.

But now he realizes that he has long been unable to let go of her, and has done so many ridiculous things but still can't figure out her thoughts.

Thinking this way, the young man slowly leaned back on the chair and fell asleep.

The crescent moon slowly crosses the window lattice, and the sun is rising.

A new day is a rare holiday, and he, the commander of the military and horse divisions of the five cities, didn't have to do anything, so when he was awakened by the knock on the door, it was already high in the sun.

Qi Changting opened his eyes, and as soon as he moved, he felt pain in his neck, back, and body everywhere, and then he realized that he had slept on the chair for most of the night.

He raised his hand and rubbed his extremely dry eyes, which must have been bloodshot.

The knock rang three more times.

The young man frowned imperceptibly, forced his body open, and made a series of joint sluggish sounds.

I'm so tired, I don't want to see people.

Ever since I slept next to the girl's couch the night before, I feel that the beds are not very comfortable/

"Come in." But still.

The door opened, it was He Cheng.

The memory slowly came back, and Qi Changting finally remembered that he had made an important decision last night.

——Let Baiqiao completely enter the eyes of everyone in the Eastern Capital.

"How?" The young man asked lightly, raised his eyes to glance at He Cheng's face, and raised his eyebrows slightly, "Why, someone objected? Uncle Qi?"

Qi Changting knew that Baiqiao definitely wanted to stand in the sun openly, even if she said she didn't want to, she must have considered his situation and situation.

The guess is that Qi Tonghe has objections, but it's not because he suspects that Qi Tonghe wants to continue to gain fame. After all, Qi Tonghe has completely convinced Baiqiao in the past year.

It's just that Uncle Qi has been cautious for many years since the palace incident happened five years ago, he was implicated and imprisoned, and was rescued by his maternal ancestor's family.

However, He Cheng hesitated for a while before replying, "It's not that anyone has any objections, it's just that Miss Bai and Young Master Bai asked me to ask you if they could wait for a while longer."

"She doesn't want to?" Qi Changting frowned.

"No no no," He Cheng shook his head. "only……"

Qi Changting was a little annoyed when he woke up, why didn't he feel that He Cheng spoke so procrastinated before.

"That's right, Ganfang recently received the account book from a fabric shop in Xingyang, and he thinks it's not bad. It's worth a trip to have a look. Maybe it can open the door to merchants around Dongdu."

"So Miss Bai asked if she could go to Xingyang with Mr. Bai first."

He Cheng finally finished speaking in one breath.

As the head of His Royal Highness's dark guard, he is of course vigorous and resolute on weekdays.

It's just that his Highness's thoughts on Miss Bai are invisible to others, but he knows it clearly.

On her birthday, Qi Changting had just returned happily, as if she had made some breakthrough, but now Miss Bai took the initiative to leave Dongdu again, no matter how you think about it, she seemed to have repented and deliberately avoided his master.

Strange and strange.

Hearing this, Qi Changting's expression froze.

If she didn't have the previous record of running away when she saw him the day before yesterday, he might still hesitate if Bai Qiao was still worried that he wouldn't be able to handle Qi Jingmin.

But knowing that she began to hide from him again, the intention behind this move was clearly revealed.

Alright, it's not enough to hide from Qianfang, we have to hide from Xingyang!

There was a burst of evil fire in the boy's heart.

Okay, I want to go to Xingyang, I want to avoid him, right?

"Let her apply with me herself!" the young man said viciously, gnashing his teeth a bit.

If you want to avoid him, you can, but you have to come to see him first!

He Cheng quietly lowered his eyes and didn't dare to look around, he clapped his hands and went to answer.

When I got to the door, I suddenly remembered something, turned around and asked, "Then, where can Miss Bai meet you?"

Of course, it is impossible for the Third Prince's Mansion. In the past, when the two met, Qi Changting took the initiative to go to the party. I have never seen Miss Bai take the initiative to find her.

Qi Changting: "..."

Suddenly sad.

The boy raised his hand and pressed his eyes heavily, and let out a long breath.

"Well, she wants to go, tell her to go." He finally changed his words.

"Ask about the return date, and you go with them." Qi Changting added.

He Cheng raised his eyes in a daze when he heard the words, and said anxiously: "Your Highness, you can't. Your Highness's new military position is just the time to attract people's envy. If His Highness makes a move, you can't be without someone by your side."

"Besides, after a year, His Majesty's attention to Miss Bai has almost disappeared. I will send the most agile ones to protect them secretly, and there will be no problem." He Cheng added.

However, Qi Changting just glanced at him lightly, "Is it the same as Xiao Wu?"

"..." He Cheng froze.

He paused for a while, then slowly said: "If His Highness insists on doing this, He Cheng will naturally obey."

Qi Changting looked up at him, then raised his hand and rubbed the center of his brows, "Well, send another person there, you've been with me for so many years, it's not safe for a team that doesn't care to keep up with you."

"Ah, that's exactly it!" He Cheng was overjoyed, "The subordinates must carefully clear out the hidden guards to ensure that Miss Bai is safe and sound."

Qi Changting listened lazily, waved his hand to tell him to get out of here, and then sat back at the table, brushing his sleeves and writing, planning to finish an article and calm down.

However, his eyes flicked across the brocade box he took out last night, and he paused.

He picked up the quill instead, recalling Baiqiao's actions, carefully pinched the thin quill with three fingers, dipped a thin ink, and carefully left the first ink marks on the paper.

If Baiqiao had seen it, he would definitely feel that the action was very similar to that of a six-year-old child writing for the first time in later generations.

The movements are clumsy and cute, but the win is that they are serious, and they are also charming.

Qi Changting changed the hard pen, so he couldn't read the copybook again, so he simply wrote the outline of facing Qi Jingmin in the future.

But he never thought that before he wrote a few lines, there was a message that made him frown.

——Qi Jingmin presented Emperor Huisheng: In order to pray for the emperor's grandmother, he will go south again next month and personally ask for a piece of Taihu Lake stone to come back.

Taihu stones have the meaning of longevity and health in the previous dynasty, and it will be even more rare if they can be salvaged and invited by eminent monks to Buddha.

It's just one thing to ask Buddha to bathe and burn incense, and you have to chant scriptures for seven to seven days.

If Qi Jingmin leaves in August, it will be the end of October when he returns to the East anyway.

He doesn't plan to take advantage of Ye Huan's birthday on September [-] to win over Prime Minister Ye again?

It is true that this move is indeed a good way to retreat, but...

It doesn't quite fit Qi Jingmin's behavior style.

The young man stopped writing, pulled a clean silk cloth and carefully wiped the nib, put the quill back into the brocade box, and locked it into the dark compartment behind the shelf.

Then the corners of his lips curled up into a warm smile.

The harem is not allowed to interfere in politics, but that woman still can't sit still.

She has a good plan, but it's a pity...

Right now, he has something to do, and he hopes that Qi Jingmin won't cause trouble in Dongdu.

The originally densely written Baixuan was lifted up and thrown into the small furnace. The young man spread out another piece of letter paper, held the pen with his left hand, and quickly wrote a secret letter, folded it carefully and sealed it in a kraft paper seal.

It's just a waste of his thinking about how to protect Baiqiao in Qi Jingmin's hands, and the two parties involved have to go out of Dongdu.

Really...

Ugh.

An hour later, Bai Qiao took the letter from Qi Tonghe in Qianfang Cabinet Workshop.

As soon as she looked at the words "Qi Qi" on the cover, she knew that it was written by Qi Changting himself, and it was as amazing as the words on the notice he wrote to Qian Fang back then.

However, right now she is not in the mood to appreciate it. I am afraid that Qi Changting wrote a long letter, solemnly advising her not to leave Dongdu.

The girl took a deep breath, carefully opened the seal, took out the thin letter paper, and read the first word:

--Can.

Bai Qiao heaved a sigh of relief, annoyed in his heart that he thought of people too narrowly.

After all, the hero is still the hero, even if she goes astray, I believe she will be righted soon after leaving for a while!

Going to Xingyang now, the scale of the fabric shop is not small, and even has its own processing factory.

This is also Qianfang's first customer with its own manufacturing attributes. In addition to checking the accounts, the various raw materials and semi-finished products in its warehouse also need to be carefully counted. It may take two months to come back after the heroine's birthday. That's fine.

only……

Thinking about keeping a distance from Qi Changting in the future, and not being able to talk as much as before, and work together like friends, I still feel a little regretful.

If before crossing, there is a colleague or boss who makes him feel safe like Qi Changting, when she goes to travel and passes the temple, she will definitely go to the temple to burn three pillars of high incense.

While thinking wildly, Bai Qiao slowly read Qi Changting's letter.

But soon, she was stunned.

The letter allowed her to go to Xingyang, but asked her to come back before August.

Just kidding, today is the ninth day of July, even if we leave tomorrow, we still need to...

Well, Xingyang is on the edge of Dongdu, and the fabric shop is still located in the west of Xingyang, which is close to Dongdu, and it will take only a day and a half.

But if she wants to come back so early, wouldn't it be...

Bai Qiao endured his uneasiness and continued to look down, then slowly took a breath.

"That important minister" is going to Jiangnan in August, that means the villain is leaving Beijing.

This opportunity is indeed rare.

The biggest worry about her revealing her identity is that it will become the talk of the people after dinner. Even if the villain is in a high position and does not hear gossip, after all, there is a Shenghe cabinet shop among the people, and [-]% of the sensation will reach his ears. .

But if he waited until he left Beijing to announce it, the ancient news was blocked, he missed the first stage of the gossip outbreak, and if he came back in more than two months, there would definitely not be much trouble.

Perfect.

Baiqiao was shamefully moved.

Moreover, maybe the villain's departure from Beijing was deliberately designed by Qi Changting, just for her safety, if she doesn't know how to flatter her, it would be too impolite.

Damn it, this man can always step on her dead spot!

Finally, when two sweaty fingerprints were about to smear on the letter paper, the girl finally nodded and turned to Qi Tonghe.

"Okay, just do as you say."

The author has something to say:

Bai Qiao: Well, maybe the villain was designed to leave Kyoto for her.

Qi Changting: Cough... yes, that's right.
