Pei Gonggui

Jiang Yue was interrupted by the sudden embrace, and suddenly didn't know how to speak properly, so he could only say jerky:

"You... don't worry, am I not doing well?"

He lightly stroked Pei Jun's back, and for a moment he didn't know whether he should slap him or not, so his fingers could only freeze on Pei Jun's warm back. He was about to say another word, but he heard a stunned cry from behind Pei Jun:

"Master?"

Jiang Yue was taken aback, and immediately followed the sound, and saw that it was his apprentice Zhang San who came in with Pei Jun, who was standing by the door, staring at him without blinking, his expression was as if he had hit a ghost .

Jiang Yue's eyes widened, and he was about to push Pei Jun away subconsciously.But when he pushed, Pei Jun's healthy arms didn't move at all. Not only did he not let go of him, but he followed Zhang San's exclamation and hugged him even tighter——

Tight until he felt suffocated.

He watched Zhang San behind Pei Jun getting closer and closer, which made his bloodless face flush instantly, and he couldn't help admonishing between Pei Jun's neck: "Pei Jun, hurry up!" Let me go and see him—"

"Master is still alive?" Zhang San was standing behind Pei Jun at this time. Seeing that Jiang Yue was still alive, he blinked suddenly, shook his body, and immediately raised his hand and slapped himself, "This, isn't this dream..."

Seeing this, Jiang Yue quickly raised his hand to stop him, but before he could speak, his eyes turned red when he saw Zhang San.

But at the next moment, Zhang San finally noticed that Pei Jun was tightly bound Jiang Yue's hands, and his whole face froze immediately, his expression of astonishment was even worse: "This, what is this..."

Jiang Yue couldn't help but snapped at Pei Jun again anxiously: "Let go!"

However, Pei Jun buried his face in his collar and rubbed it, and his hoarse voice came through the material of the clothes: "Don't let go. Your apprentice just said in the car that I don't care, I'll let him see if I don't care." .”

Jiang Yue didn't understand what he meant at all. He looked at Zhang San suspiciously, but saw Zhang San took a step back when he heard the words, and his lips trembled: "Mo, could it be that Master and Mr. Pei... have, already..."

"It's ready!" Pei Jun answered him without thinking, and when he retracted his hand, he tightened Jiang Yue even more.

Hearing Zhang San's words, his feet felt cold, and he lost strength for a moment and fell to the ground.Jiang Yue, who was in Pei Jun's arms, was also choked by these words, and suddenly started coughing, and the coughing got worse.

Pei Jun had no choice but to let go of Jiang Yue hesitantly, pat him on the back, then took the tea from the stone table beside him and handed it to him, telling him to drink first.

Jiang Yue snatched the tea and poured it down. At this moment, his face was completely red, from his eyes to his ears, and then from his ears to his collar.After drinking a cup of tea, he took a deep breath, looked at Pei Jun with sullen eyes, and then at Zhang San, who was sitting on the ground, and said, "You...you get up first."

But Zhang Sanyi had already been empowered by five thunders, and experienced great ups and downs, it was really not easy to stand up, and now he was still sitting on the ground, looking at the two of them in complete panic.

Seeing the situation, Pei Jun found it difficult for Jiang Yue to speak out, and Zhang San was so frightened that he couldn't bear to tease the two masters and apprentices anymore, so he took Jiang Yue's empty teacup, sighed and said, "Come on, Let me tell the story. Little Ah San, in fact, I suddenly resigned from office yesterday when I went to court, which caused the emperor Long Yan to be furious. , he will never let me out of the palace. Your master should know this well when he got the letter, so he set up this big show early this morning. Although he wanted to rescue me, it killed two birds with one stone. The Cai family was caught off guard."

Jiang Yue, who was beside him, calmed down for a while, and stood up at this moment and said: "See you, do you still remember that someone assassinated me years ago?"

Zhang San nodded: "I remember. The cabinet verified that it was Master's guards who held a grudge against Master, so they—"

"No." Jiang Yue interrupted him directly, "It was just a trick to fool the cabinet. In fact, Cai Yan sent someone to kill me at that time, but he didn't succeed and was killed by me instead. The assassin at that time, It was the corpse you brought to Dali Temple today. At that time, Mr. Pei and I had already connected. When he saw the tattoo on the assassin, he expected that it was Mrs. Cai who wanted to separate us, so we exchanged corpses. To the Ministry of Punishment, Cai Yan's divorce plan was broken, so the matter was temporarily suppressed."

"But I really didn't expect you to keep this corpse." Pei Jun looked at him suspiciously, "It's been more than three months, where did you hide him?"

Jiang Yue thought for a while, and said frankly, "It's hidden in the ice cellar of the Water Division of the Ministry of Industry."

"Du Shui Division?" Pei Jun frowned, suddenly, "So there are people from you all the time in the Sixth Division under the Ministry of Industry?"

Jiang Yue looked at him seriously: "Aren't there people from you in Xicheng Bingmasi and Chengbeiying? They are either cooks or escorts. They are all in charge of food and salary. Each other."

Pei Jun smiled: "So you have expected this day, so you have been holding this corpse?"

Jiang Yue shook his head, and slowly walked over to help Zhang Sandao who was on the ground: "Cai's actions are treacherous, and it has never been difficult to leave a clue. At that time, I just thought that since the assassin was taken down, it should be a physical evidence, so I don't need to use it any more. It's a pity that I left the corpse to try, and I didn't think it would be useful at the time."

"Then... what happened this morning?" Zhang San asked.

"What happened this morning was all just a plan." Jiang Yue led him to sit down at the table, and slowly replied, "Since we know that the palace will not release people easily, if we want Pei Jun to leave the palace, he can only give birth to a baby." This is a major event, so the emperor had to release Pei Jun. If he wanted to force the emperor to release him, it would be safest to ask the cabinet and Sejong Pavilion to put pressure together--this would require Pei Jun to commit a case that would lead to the release of Pei Jun. They entered the palace to take people. But..."

When Jiang Yue said this, he glanced at Pei Jun coldly: "According to the emperor's regard for Pei Jun, I'm afraid that I won't let Pei Jun go for a small crime, so the emperor will cover up, so I have to make such a bad plan. .”

Zhang San's eyebrows sank when he heard this, and he glanced at Pei Jun beside him, his expression suddenly became complicated.

Jiang Yue immediately took a step forward, half-blocking Pei Jun behind him: "Pei Jun doesn't know about this, you—"

"You didn't want to tell me at all." Pei Juncai didn't care what Zhang San thought, just pulled Jiang Yue's hand to make him sit down first, then squatted in front of him, looked at his sick face, and sighed, " If I knew that you were going to suffer this crime, I would definitely not allow you to act like this. Tell the truth, have you really taken poison?"

"It's not really poison...it's just a medicinal herb." Jiang Yue pulled out his sleeve from his hand, coughed lightly to avoid his gaze, "That medicine can cause stomach heat, sudden suffocation, and make people vomit blood , but it is not fatal, and you can be cured if you detoxify in time. I have taken the antidote. Just now I drank the medicine in the Dongcheng treasury. Jin, everyone believes it to be true, and if you throw the body taken out of the ice cellar at the back door of the treasury yesterday, saying that the assassin is dead, the case is considered half done."

When Zhang San heard this, he could almost imagine what happened next: "The attendants sent Master back to the palace, and then rushed to the palace to ask for the imperial physician, and asked the imperial physician to report to the emperor, saying that the king of Jin has returned to the west—and It was at this time that I rushed to the palace after hearing the news. As soon as I went there, I heard that the master passed away, and I was immediately saddened. Therefore, I was suddenly told that the assassin was related to Pei's mansion. Impulsive... I naturally led the corpse to Dali Temple , in order to ask Mr. Pei to pay for his crimes and be buried with Master——Master even counts this."

"He even punched me." Pei Jun pointed at his left cheek at the right time, and leaned closer to Jiang Yue, "Jiang Yue, look, he punched me here."

Zhang San looked at him coldly: "As soon as you came, you asked my master if he was really dead, who would you hit if he didn't hit you? From what I see now, the master really did suffer for you, and you deserve this punch."

Pei Jun stared suddenly: "You still have reason—"

"Okay." Jiang Yue pulled Pei Jun's sleeve, "It's not easy for you to leave the palace this time, let's just pretend that he is helping you by acting, and don't blame him."

Pei Jun was pulled aside by him and stood aside, he couldn't help muttering "Civilism", but at this moment he lowered his head and saw Jiang Yue's face, but curiously asked another question:

"Jiang Yue, the imperial physician and Zhang San did the physical examination for you, but they couldn't feel the pulse or breath. How did you do it?"

Jiang Yue paused for a moment, and after thinking about it, he lowered his eyes and raised his eyebrows and said, "It's just a trick learned in the military, it's nothing to worry about."

"Then are you still sick now?" Pei Jun came over again as he spoke, causing Jiang Yue to look at him amusedly, shook his head and replied, "It's really all right, so don't ask."

In Zhang San's eyes, Jiang Yue's smile was a kind of softness that he had never seen before, and then he looked at Pei Jun through his gaze, and saw that Pei Jun's expression was serious and focused, and he was not as casual as usual. It made Zhang San's heart sink even more.

"Master," Zhang San said in a low voice, looking at Jiang Yue, "You planned to fake your death and deceive the king. Although you have rescued Mr. Pei, how will it end in the future?"

When Jiang Yue heard the words, he seemed to have expected it and said: "I have my own concerns about this matter, you don't need to worry about it."

"How can you not be worried?" Zhang San raised his eyebrows and looked at Pei Jun, straight eyes and thin lips, "Why is he being imprisoned in the palace by the emperor now, doesn't Master know? He can make you sacrifice your life for the crime of disobedience Save him, how do you know that the emperor will not let you be sent down by this in the future? Master, he can risk your military exploits for the emperor, steal your tiger amulet, and count you for the emperor for many years. How do you know that he is not right now? -"

"See you." Jiang Yue's voice darkened suddenly, and he looked at him warningly.

Zhang San stopped talking immediately, but his eyes on Pei Jun did not change. After a while, he bowed his head and said: "The student has violated the rules, master forgive me." After speaking, he suddenly got up, thinking Liao thought about it and said, "Master should have something to discuss with Mr. Pei right now, so I won't bother the student. The student should leave first."

Jiang Yue followed suit and stood up: "See you, I'm not—"

"Today's matter, I will keep my mouth shut as promised." Zhang San suddenly turned to look at Pei Jun, although his face was cold, the expression in his eyes was quite complicated, "But Mr. Pei, Master, I never believe that this matter is just to save people It's as simple as going out of the palace and defeating the Cai family."

He withdrew his gaze, lowered his head, waited to think for a while, then sighed and said: "Forget it, I shouldn't know more about this matter. Master, I... I will go back first."

After finishing speaking, he left Jiang Yue and walked out of the courtyard, leaving in a hurry without looking back.

Jiang Yue looked at his back, sighed softly, and frowned for a long time without saying a word, until he was surrounded by a pair of arms behind him, and then he came back to his senses, and he couldn't help but blame Pei Jun in a low voice: "Why did you insist on bringing him here?"

Pei Jun rested his chin on his back shoulder, tilted his head and kissed the side of his neck: "You should see that when he beat me, everyone cried like a fool, so you just have the heart to keep lying to him?"

Jiang Yue broke away from him, turned around and looked at him and said, "But you also know that Jian Yi never lies, and knowing about it will do him absolutely no good."

"But the current situation has reached such a point that he will have to choose a side sooner or later." Pei Jun took half a step forward to embrace him, tilted his head and said seriously, "You can't protect him forever, and you can't always make up his mind for him. If you don't push him at this time, don't you expect to raise this student, but still let him make trouble with his father?"

After he finished speaking, seeing Jiang Yue lowered his eyes and remained silent for a long time, he knew that this matter was Jiang Yue's knot in his heart. He couldn't help but sighed, first took Jiang Yue's face and pecked him: "Forget it, don't talk about it. This time it's I was wrong. I won't interfere in his affairs from now on, I just listen to you, don't be angry with me." After speaking, he looked deeply into Jiang Yue's eyes, and it was only then that he felt his heart fluctuate again, and he couldn't help Pressing against Jiang Yue's forehead with his eyes closed, he said with a long sigh of relief: "It's a blessing, it's a blessing that you're fine, otherwise my life..."

He trembled in the middle of what he said, so that Jiang Yue couldn't hear the next few words clearly.But at this moment, looking at his deeply furrowed brows and tightly closed eyes, Jiang Yue couldn't bear to ask him any more, so he just raised his hand to brush between his brows, stared at him for a while, and then caressed him again with his fingertips. The cheek was bruised from Zhang San's beating, Wu Mei frowned slightly, and forced a smile: "That kid's hands are growing stronger."

"Are you the one who taught him?" Pei Jun immediately let go of him, "His hand strength is not only growing, it's going to kill me—"

A soft touch landed on the bruise on his cheek, which suddenly stopped all his words.

Jiang Yue, who finished the kiss, turned back, looked away with a slight twinkle in his eyes, and only said: "Don't talk nonsense."

But Pei Jun was already stunned on the spot, and when he came to his senses, he immediately hugged Jiang Yue and shook: "You kissed me just now?"

Jiang Yue's face became hot when he saw him, and he lowered his head and pushed him away: "Just touch it."

"Then you touch it again." Pei Jun quickly caught up with him half a step before embracing him, turned his face to the other side and said, "This time touch this side."

But the person in his arms remained silent for a long time.

Just when Pei Jun thought that Jiang Yue was going to push him away again, a pair of hands covered with thick calluses suddenly broke his head, and the next moment, these hands clasped the back of his neck and moved forward. The more they bumped into each other, when he opened his eyes, he saw Jiang Yue's half-closed eyes trembling just a few feet away.

But as soon as this brief touch started, Jiang Yue was about to pull back immediately.Unexpectedly, as soon as he retreated, Pei Jun suddenly grabbed his neck, pushed him to the tree trunk behind him and kissed him until Jiang Yue raised his hand to his chest in a flustered breath, and then he kissed him. Stopping for a while, pecking at Jiang Yue's lips and gradually separating from him, looking into Jiang Yue's eyes with the tip of his nose, for a moment he began to chatter a little uncontrollably: "You kissed me. Jiang Yue, you kissed me... "

"Understood." Jiang Yue panted slightly and looked at him, but he still heard Pei Jun whispering in his ear when he said this, at this moment, the blush on his cheeks had not faded, and his tone was finally a little annoyed: "Don't you Moreover."

Only then did Pei Jun shut up.

However, although Pei Jun didn't mention it, he recited the words a hundred and eighty times in his heart. After he leaned forward and took another sip of Jiang Yue, he finally suppressed his restlessness, held his face and said: "I Don't say it... don't say it."

But at this moment, Jiang Yue suddenly caught a glimpse of the injury on the back of his hand, and he couldn't help frowning again, grabbed his wrist and said, "Did it happen in the palace?"

Pei Jun answered dumbly, and immediately thought of Jiang Xuan because of it, then lowered his head and put his hands down, looked at him and said shyly, "Xuan'er was still left by Jiang Zhan. I didn't keep him."

Jiang Yue sighed deeply, held up his sleeves, and led him to the inner courtyard: "It will be extremely difficult and dangerous for you to leave the palace, let alone Xuan'er. If Jiang Zhan has the heart to accept Xuan'er as his heir, he will be afraid in the future." I'm going to use him as bait and a pawn in the palace, so it's impossible for you to take him away." As he spoke, he stopped for a while, but he didn't know what to think, and suddenly turned his head to look at Pei Jun's disheveled temple hair and disheveled clothes For a moment, it seemed that he wanted to ask something, but when he opened his mouth, he seemed to be speechless, and the next moment, he turned around again and led Pei Jun to walk in.

At this moment, Pei Jun stopped to hold him, and tightly grasped his fingertips, saying very clearly: "I didn't."

Jiang Yue was taken aback for a moment, then quickly withdrew his hand and turned forward: "Forget it, you don't have to—"

"I really didn't." Pei Jun pulled him back and held his hand tightly, "Jiang Yue, trust me. I slept with Xuan'er last night."

The warm heat from the palm of his hand spread to Jiang Yue's fingertips, and with these words, Jiang Yue felt a little at a loss.

Pei Jun turned his head to see his embarrassed appearance, and teased: "Don't believe me? Then you want to take me to inspect the goods?"

Jiang Yue immediately shook off his hand and said, "I'm going to give you medicine."

After finishing speaking, Jiang Yue walked into the depths of the yard without looking back, turned into a quiet path in an instant, and disappeared into the bamboo shadows.

Pei Jun hurriedly followed him into the bamboo forest, and when he caught up with him, he realized that they had reached another courtyard with green bricks and green tiles.

"There are my clothes in that room, you go and change first." Jiang Yue told him, "I'll get the medicine."

So Pei Jun went to the wing room of the courtyard to change clothes, but after changing the clothes, Jiang Yue took the medicine but hadn't come back yet.

He stood in front of the porch and looked at the bright red koi in the pond in the courtyard for a while, and then at the lush bamboo forest not far away. He couldn't help but walked out along the stone road in front of the courtyard. forward.

Just when he was hesitating whether he should not wander around in Jiang Yue's mansion, without paying attention, a figure suddenly jumped out of a small path beside the courtyard and bumped into him. The object with green and white tassels landed at his feet - upon closer inspection, it turned out to be a jade bell carved with dark patterns.

For a moment, Pei Jun felt that the jade bell was familiar to him. After careful consideration, he remembered that Jiang Xuan had a jade bell that was exactly the same—that bell was given to the emperors and grandchildren by Jiang Yue in the past. "Soul Bell".

Pei Jun was staring blankly in this room, but the figure who bumped into him jumped up, picked up the bell and was about to run away.

He immediately grabbed the man's arm, and when he looked closely, he saw a little girl with long braids in front of him.

The little girl was about seven or eight years old, and the clothes she wore didn't look like the Central Plains style at all, and there was a green and red tattoo on the arm pinched by Pei Jun, which looked like some kind of totem.

At this time, she looked at Pei Jun timidly and timidly, struggling to free herself, and dared not say a word at all.

Pei Jun pulled her arm up and asked coldly, "Who are you? Why do you have this bell?"

The little girl was about to cry immediately, and she looked at Pei Jun with more fear, and she started to say something, which made Pei Jun's head hurt like a heartache just after hearing a sentence.

At this moment, an old voice suddenly sounded: "Alian!"

Immediately, the little girl and Pei Jun both turned their heads to look - only to see a majestic white-haired old man standing on the path where the little girl ran just now.The old man is wearing a wide gown with fringe and a silver cord around his waist. The clothes and accessories are similar to that of the little girl, and they are not like those in the Central Plains.

Pei Jun was distracted for a moment, and the little girl who was caught took the opportunity to break free from him and ran towards the old man, and immediately hid behind the old man, whispering something to the old man.

These words caused the old man's already majestic face to become more defensive, and he took a step back while protecting the girl with a solemn expression.But just as he was about to speak to Pei Jun, he suddenly heard footsteps coming from behind Pei Jun. He was startled, and hurriedly led the child around and ran away, disappearing into the stone alley in a blink of an eye.

When Jiang Yue walked behind Pei Jun, what he saw was Pei Jun alone outside the courtyard gate, so he couldn't help calling him softly: "Pei Jun, what's wrong?"

Only then did Pei Jun come back to his senses, and turned around: "Oh... I was looking for you just now, and I just walked out."

"Here's the medicine." Jiang Yue raised the wooden box in his hand and smiled at him, "I was afraid that you would be hungry, so I asked them to prepare a meal. I also thought that since you are here, you might as well meet me later Mr. Zhao and them."

"Meet your staff?" Pei Jun was slightly taken aback when he heard the words, and he took a moment to react, "You want to use the fact that you were assassinated—"

"Let's talk about it later." Jiang Yue interrupted him, motioning him to go back, "I'll give you the medicine first."

Pei Jun stopped talking and agreed repeatedly, but after following Jiang Yue a few steps, when he looked at Jiang Yue's lonely back, he still couldn't help calling him:

"Jiang Yue, I just... met someone."
