Wait a minute, heroine

A white fish belly appeared in the east, and the small carriage pulled by black horses quietly left the unknown town just before the rising sun.

Ye Jingtang was dressed in a black robe, with a bamboo hat on his head, and a Chilong-ringed sword hanging horizontally behind his waist. He was riding a horse slowly on the official road, scanning the endless gray wilderness.

The carriage was small and there was little furniture inside. A thin blanket was spread in the carriage.

Luo Ning leaned on the carriage with a quilt on her back. After a night's rest, most of her limbs had recovered and she could move freely. However, she didn't sleep well last night, so she leaned on Sanniang's shoulder and closed her eyes to take a nap.

The bird, which had been on guard all night, lay in the carriage with its paws in the air, rolling back and forth as the carriage rocked, but showed no sign of waking up.

Pei Xiangjun, who was leaning in the corner of the carriage, had not felt sleepy since last night.

Pei Xiangjun put on his clothes and leaned his head against the wooden carriage. His mature and beautiful cheeks had returned to their normal whiteness, with a hint of faint blush, and he looked out of the carriage through the gap in the swaying curtains.

Although only the back of Jingtang can be seen, the sense of security exuding in the bones still makes people unable to feel anxious or worried at any time. The comfortable situation will inevitably bring up countless distracting thoughts in the bottom of the heart.

The assassination outside Baoyuan Gate might have been arranged by the Zhou family and Junshantai, or it might have been the gunman Duan Shenji. These were all risks brought to Jingtang by the Pei family and Honghualou.

Regardless of the vengeance of the eldest brother, the second brother, or the foundation of Honghua Building, she should have been responsible for it, but now it all fell on the shoulders in front of her, which inevitably made her feel a little bit like "I can't repay this love." ' sigh.

Last night, when Jingtang treated her injuries, it was a matter of urgency. His eyes and expressions were very focused, just like a calm doctor, without the slightest intention of offending; so she also tried to treat it as a matter of urgency. , don’t think about the relationship between men and women.

But in the end Jingtang gave her a massage. After his fingers slipped into the waistband of his pants, his movements were not so calm. Although there was nothing unusual, the subtle changes in the strength of his fingers did not deceive her heartstrings.

She knew there was something stirring in Jingtang's heart. After all, he was a man. In that situation, how could he be as calm as a saint...

But if your heart is not as calm as water, wouldn't it be like taking advantage of others secretly...

Pei Xiangjun's mind was spinning a thousand times, and he didn't know what he was thinking. He just secretly stared at his back outside the car window in a daze, wandering thousands of miles away, when he suddenly found that his arm was being hugged.

Pei Xiangjun came back to his senses and looked sideways, only to see the charming leader's wife leaning on her shoulder, her eyelashes slightly moving, as if she was dreaming, her arms raised and wrapped around her arms, her cheeks were slightly red. .

? !

What are you dreaming about, you little fox? Are you taking me for granted?

Pei Xiangjun was probably bored, so he thought for a while, slightly raised his right hand that was being held, and touched the side of the leader's wife's leg.

"Hmm~~"

Luo Ning, who was sleeping, let out a slight murmur that seemed to be absent.

Pei Xiangjun had a strange look in his eyes and secretly said "Huh~" without waking Luo Ning, and continued to look out of the carriage.

————

Gulu gulu...

The wheels rolled over the loess official road and embarked on the road back to the capital.

Ye Jingtang rode a fierce horse and moved forward between the gray sky and earth. When he passed near Tiefuling, he turned around and took another look.

After discussing with each other yesterday, we felt that the white bead might be some kind of magic medicine that Cheng Shilu had stolen from Beiliang.

But this still didn't solve the problem. He and Cheng Shilu took medicine together, and Cheng Shilu had a mental breakdown but he became stronger.

It was a bit far-fetched to explain it with physical constitution and luck. He thought about it all night and felt that the medicine might have some connection with him.

In order to solve the doubts in his mind, Ye Jingtang quietly ran up to Tiefuling Ridge, trying to find out if there were any other clues in the stone chamber.

It's a pity that the Cheng family did not preserve the crime scene. Hiding armor privately is a serious crime. When the Cheng family came to investigate for defense, they could not explain clearly. The stone room had already been cleaned up, leaving only traces of the fight that day. The only reason for this matter was the dead Cheng Shilu. Clear.

Not being able to figure out the whole story for the time being, Ye Jingtang kept this in mind and hurried back to Beijing with the two women.

It was a day and a half's journey from Guangji back to the capital. We set off in the early morning and stayed until midnight. We didn't find a suitable village or town to stay, so we didn't stop at Night Terror Hall.

Traveling day and night, by the time we returned to the vicinity of Yun'an, it was already around three o'clock in the morning the next day.

Five days after leaving, it was early June, and a light rain came unexpectedly in the middle of the night.

Ye Jingtang took his raincoat and put it on his body, then looked back at the carriage.

There were no lights in the carriage, and the medicine on Luo Nuxia's body had dissipated. She performed the Ziwu Jue with her forehand and sat cross-legged in the carriage to practice.

Sanniang felt a little bored after walking a long way to her mother's house. She used Luo Nuxia's legs as a pillow and lay on the thin blanket and fell asleep.

Birds are used to sleeping in the middle of the night, so they sleep with their heads covered under their coir raincoats.

The Night Terror Hall did not disturb the two women, and brought the carriage to the towering city wall of Yun'an.

At night, the city gate has been closed. According to the rules, you have to wait at the door until the city bell rings before you can enter the city.

Ye Jingtang didn't want to be soaked in the rain for several hours outside the city, so he found the city gate guard on duty outside the city gate and took out the "Behead first, report later, imperial permission" badge given by Benben.

The chief officers of the Hei Yamen arrested all the gangsters who came and went. It was common for them to come and go at night. The city gate guards did not stop them. After checking their waistbands and official reports, they opened the city gate and let cars and horses in. Come to Yun'an.

In the second half of the night, you can still hear music of Shengsing, singing and musical instruments in some streets in the capital, but there are basically no people on the streets.

Night Terror Hall crosses Dongzheng Street, and it can be seen that the cloth shop that he destroyed last time is under construction, but the street has been repaired.

When the carriage arrived at the alley of Tianshui Bridge, Ye Jingtang slowed down the horse, came outside the carriage, raised his hand and knocked:

Dong Dong~

Luo Ning woke up when she entered the city. She opened her eyes after hearing the sound and looked at the plump female boss who was leaning on her lap.

The medicinal power on Pei Xiangjun's body has dissipated, but the 'Wind Pool Reverse Blood' is a move that squeezes the body to the limit to improve it. It will be difficult for self-injured Du Vein to heal completely in one day, and it is still a bit weak.

Hearing the movement, Pei Xiangjun fluttered his eyelashes, looked out the window at the familiar building, and sat up leisurely:

"finally arrived at home."

Luo stared at the charming female boss in front of him, and his heart was actually a bit complicated - they were not familiar with each other a few days ago, and they even had a quarrel. But when we went out, the hostess watched her apply watermelon frosting, and she watched the little thief suck a big ball. This relationship was obviously a bit weird, um... the friendship of feeding the thief together?

However, this female boss didn't understand current affairs and even refused to call her 'Sister Ning'er'.

As a legitimate leader, Luo Ning couldn't take the initiative to warm up to the cold moon. After thinking about it, she didn't say much and just looked outside:

"Little thief, take her back. I'll wait for you at the door."

Pei Xiangjun bent down and got out of the carriage. He held Ye Jingtang's hand and jumped out. He was a little drifting after lying there for two days. He swayed slightly and raised his hand to fix his hair:

"Why don't you just rest at home and go back at dawn?"

Ye Jingtang felt that Luo Nuxia would not live in the Pei family, so he supported Sanniang and said:

"If you stay at Pei's house, you will inevitably wake up your eldest aunt and the others, so you'd better go back quietly."

Luo Ning jumped off the carriage and unloaded the horse in the alley:

"There is still something to do when we go back. Miss Pei, please rest early. If you need anything, just come to our house and let us know."

Our family...

Pei Xiangjun knew that this charming and yearning fox was eager to go back and be shy with Jingtang, so he did not insist and walked towards the door of Pei's house:

"The doors are closed. I can't get angry. Jingtang, please send me in."

Ye Jingtang didn't say anything when he saw this. He hugged Sanniang's legs and hugged her horizontally, flew over the high wall, came to Pei's mansion, and walked along the corridor towards the main courtyard.

Ye Jingtang looked down while walking, and found that Sanniang was leaning on her shoulder obediently. She raised her eyes to look at him, and found that he lowered his head, and turned away again.

The two walked through the corridor and across the building to the main courtyard. The courtyard was very quiet, with only the faint sound of drizzle. There was a breathing sound in the ear room, which should be Xiu He who had fallen asleep.

Ye Jingtang put Sanniang down and opened the door:

"Sanniang, have a good rest. I'm going back first."

Pei Xiangjun stood at the door of the boudoir, rubbing his sore shoulders. He wanted to go in, but after a moment of hesitation, he turned around and looked up at the tall and handsome young master in front of him.

Ye Jingtang blinked his eyes and looked at the mature and beautiful face close at hand. His almond eyes were obviously different from the 'pretending to be resentful' before. There was a certain emotion in his mouth. His red lips moved slightly, but he stopped talking. .

Night Terror Hall felt that the atmosphere was not right and smiled:

"Sanniang, is there anything else?"

"Um……"

Pei Xiangjun raised his hand to adjust the raincoat on Ye Jingtang's chest. He seemed to be preparing words, but after thinking for a long time, he said:

"Jingtang, am I a little fat?"

?

Ye Jingtang felt that this question was simply unreasonable. He had such a rock-solid determination that his thoughts were wandering. If he thought that hips wider than shoulders and plump and plump meant he was fat, then there might be something wrong with his sexual orientation.

"Sanniang, don't think nonsense. You don't even need to ask me. Just ask any old lady and they will praise her for having many children and good fortune."

Pei Xiangjun nodded thoughtfully, straightened his clothes, and rubbed his chest:

"Okay, I'm just asking. Go accompany your girl Ning'er. Next time you go out to do errands, remember to call me. She can't do anything except be jealous. If you stay here for a while, she will It’s time to come in and grab people.”

Ye Jingtang sighed secretly. After watching Sanniang enter the boudoir, he helped to close the door. Before leaving, he first came to the window of the side room and raised his hand to knock on it.

Dong Dong~

"Hmm~Who is it?"

"Xiuhe, it's me."

"Huh?! Master Ye...you..."

"Don't think blindly. Sanniang is back and is a little injured. Go take care of her."

"Oh...I thought the young master came here to bully the maid in the middle of the night~he was just having fun..."

?

Ye Jingtang didn't know what to say, so he jumped onto the verandah without stopping. Falling in the alleyway, he took out Bird Bird, who was sleeping like a piglet in the carriage, and got on his horse:

"Let's go."

Luo Ning looked much more natural without the light bulb in front of her. She walked out from under the eaves, tapped her toes and tried to get on the horse.

But while Luo Ning was still in the air, she noticed that the little thief on the horse raised his hand to fish her out, and pulled her to the front, who was about to sit in the back, and sat directly in his arms.

Thump~

Luo Ning quickly sat up straight, her eyebrows furrowed slightly and she said displeasedly:

"It's starting again, right? You are a gentleman in front of others, but you can't hold back when in front of me? Am I easy to bully?"

"drive--"

Ye Jingtang held Luo Ning in his arms and drove his horse to Dyefang Street. On the way, he pulled up his raincoat and covered Luo Ning:

"It's raining lightly, and there's no umbrella. You can sit in the back and get completely soaked when you go back."

Luo Ning thought there was nothing wrong with this statement, but the place where she sat was obviously not flat. Her eyes were slightly cold:

"Do you believe I can break it for you?"

Ye Jingtang was startled, looked at the cold face, and frowned slightly:

"Why are you talking like this when you go out? Who are you? Bring back my pure and cold-hearted Luo Nuxia."

Luo Ning went out for a few days, experienced ups and downs, and really relaxed a little.

Seeing that the little thief dared to tease, she took a breath, put her hand between the two of them, touched the hilt of the sword, and used such force...

Ye Jingtang was frightened for a moment and quickly held down Luo Nuxia's arm:

"I was wrong. I really protected you from the wind and rain. You can see that I didn't move. I promised to hug you every day and not to be angry. Luo Nuxia can't break her promise."

"snort……"

Only then was Luo Ning satisfied, she put away her cold expression, leaned into Ye Jingtang's arms, and said calmly:

"I know how uncomfortable you are. You performed very well this time when you went out. Pei Sanniang tried to seduce you, but you were unmoved. I'll take care of your health today, and I'll prescribe you some medicine tomorrow. I won't do anything like this next time."

"hehe……"
