"long time no see."

Pei Wenxuan laughed: "It should be more than three years, right?"

When the two of them talked, Li Rong gave Li Chuan a look, and then led Li Chuan to the edge of the cell, the farthest place from Pei Wenxuan, and whispered: "Why did she come?"

"Sister, do you know her?"

Li Chuan glanced at the two who were talking, and whispered to Li Rong: "I met at the gate of Jiulu Mountain. When I saw me, he beat me and splashed me a lot."

Li Rong: "..."

She really heard someone describe Qin Zhenzhen this way for the first time.

"and then?"

Li Rong ignored Li Chuan’s description and jumped directly to the point: “She said she is Qin Lin’s sister, and I don’t know whether it’s true or false. Anyway, after someone came to the palace, she immediately said to help me when she heard who I was. Please Qin Lin, but the condition is," Li Chuan raised his chin, "Come and see Pei Wenxuan."

As he said, Li Chuan frowned: "Sister, are they in a situation?"

Li Rong: "..."

Li Chuan was rarely smart once.

Li Chuan is fairly stable in terms of government affairs, but in terms of feelings, Li Rong feels that his aspirations are basically the same as when he was six.

Qin Zhen really talked to Pei Wenxuan. She asked about Pei Wenxuan's situation, and Pei Wenxuan answered them one by one. After Qin Zhenzhen confirmed that Pei Wenxuan was okay, he said with a sigh of relief: "I know that brother is fine, then I will Don't worry. By the way," Qin Zhen really remembered, "Did you receive the jade pendant before?"

"Give me a jade pendant," Li Chuan whispered in Li Rong's ear, "They really have a problem."

Li Rong knocked her shoulders with a fan, curled her lips and smiled, showing a look of a good show. She folded a fan and blocked her face with the fan. She approached Li Chuan, and her lips hummed: "It's time to watch the show."

"Received." Pei Wenxuan's voice sounded and said slowly, "I know this is not your intention, I don't blame you, you don't have to worry."

"Big Brother Pei misunderstood, that's what I meant." Qin Zhenzhen said openly and sincerely, "This jade pendant has long wanted to be returned to Big Brother Pei, but Big Brother Pei did not have time to keep his filial piety, and now he is back. I should have delivered it myself, but my eldest brother said, now that I have grown up, when it is inconvenient for you, he sent it for me."

Li Chuan was at a loss, but Li Rong was using a fan to block herself, her shoulders shaking, and she laughed silently.

She looked at Qin Zhenzhen with an upright face at the moment, recalling that Pei Wenxuan had vowed to her before saying that Qin Zhenzhen was forced, she heard the invisible slap on the face, and the "Papa Papa" made a crisp sound.

Pei Wenxuan was silent. After a while, he stiffened and said, "Big Brother Qin is interested."

"Yes," Qin Zhenzhen laughed, "Although you and your eldest brother don’t meet each other often, your eldest brother is very considerate of you. The eldest brother told me that when the two married couples, I never thought that Pei’s family would have the current momentum. Big Brother Pei is the son of Pei's family, and his future is limitless. Big Brother asked me not to delay you, because the jokes of the two families back then delayed your good marriage."

Pei Wenxuan: "..."

Li Rong leaned against the wall and turned her face with a smile, Li Chuan was at a loss.

After a long time, Li Rong heard Pei Wenxuan's non-emotional voice: "Qin Lin told you all this?"

This kind of emotionless voice demonstrated Pei Wenxuan's extremely restrained emotional state. Just listening to the voice, Li Rong felt Pei Wenxuan's impulse to tear Qin Lin with his hands.

Why does Pei's son have a limitless future? These are all lies. He wants a limitless future and can only be an eighth grade official?

It was clear that Qin Lin couldn't look down on him, and he fooled Qin Zhenzhen.

It’s just that Qin Zhenzhen’s female siblings have always been indifferent to these complicated relationships with the outside world. The Pei family has a good reputation, and it is normal for the children of the family to start from the lower official positions with real power. As for what position at the bottom has real power or not, this is not what Qin Zhenzhen can understand.

So Qin Lin flicked like this for a while, and Qin Zhenzhen didn't suspect that he had him at all, and gave Yupei to his brother to divorce. Seeing that there was no sign of joy in Pei Wenxuan's expression, she realized that it was wrong, and hesitated, "What my brother said...what's wrong?"

Pei Wenxuan: "..."

No, neither is right.

But now Pei Wenxuan does not want to explain to Qin Zhenzhen, after all, the decision has been made, and there is no need for explanation. So he replied blankly: "It's nothing, just grateful for the elder brother's concern."

Hearing this, Li Rong didn't hold her back, and finally laughed out loud.

Qin Zhenzhen couldn't help it anymore, turned her head and looked over, she couldn't understand why this Princess Pingle was so happy from the beginning?

She couldn't help wondering: "What is your Highness laughing at?"

"It's nothing," Li Rongping regained his emotions, wiped the tears from the corner of his eyes, and quickly said: "I just thought of something funny."

When Pei Wenxuan heard Li Rong laughing at him, he was rather helpless. When he thought about it, he knew that Li Rong was laughing at him when he remembered the quarrel. He couldn't help but coughed softly, "I'm fine. Don’t worry. Go back and persuade your brother a few words, Your Royal Highness..."

"My brother knows this." Qin Zhenzhen heard Pei Wenxuan talk about it, and said, "Don't worry, Brother Pei, my brother will go, but you have to wait another day."

"Oh, your brother will go, you still tell me you help me persuade, let me help you?" Li Chuan listened beside him, raising his brows, "Are you lying to me?"

Qin Zhenzhen listened to Li Chuan's words, and suddenly lost the peace he had before, and said indifferently, "Minnv persuaded him to go, so why lie?"

"you……"

"Chuan'er," Li Rong reminded Li Chuan, "Don't be rude."

Hearing this, Li Chuan turned to look at Li Rong, shocked: "Sister, you call me rude without saying anything?"

"What do you want to say, I already know."

Li Rong raised his eyebrows, and then said: "Okay, don't talk about some of these, you go back now, and find out about the affairs of the court, and make preparations tomorrow morning. Father can let me come here to prove the Yang family There should be pressure on him. If you don’t expect it, your father will send you to the northwest to monitor the battle tomorrow morning. You can’t directly agree to it, you must continue to reject it.”

"I understand." Li Chuan pursed his lips, "I've already prepared these things, don't worry."

"Miss Qin Er," Li Rong raised her eyes and looked at Qin Zhenzhen next to her, "If the prince is forced to be sent to the front line tomorrow, is your brother sure to go?"

She stared at Qin Zhenzhen, Qin Zhenzhen got the words, and respectfully said: "Your Royal Highness rest assured, your brother is embarrassed by your Royal Highness, but just wants to explore the character of His Royal Highness, and does not mean to refuse."

Li Rong nodded. After thinking about it, she looked at Li Chuan and said: "If Qin Lin follows you to the front line, don't let people know. Put him in the barracks quietly, don't let others know that this is yours. "

Li Chuan was stunned. After a while, he reacted and said, "Understood."

After spending so much time to bring down the Yang family, they did not make wedding dresses for Li Ming.

The fundamental purpose is to allow Li Chuan to insert his own manpower in the northwest. Li Ming will definitely replace the chief general in the latter part of this war and take all the credit for it. If Qin Lin followed Li Chuan directly, he would only brave his head for fear, and Li Ming would pinch his head later.

The safest plan now is for Qin Lin to take his good friend Cui Qinghe to the front line, starting from the beginning as an identity unrelated to Li Chuan, and then using his two people’s wisdom to advise Li Chuan to resolve the Yang family’s presence on the northwest border. After the hidden danger, attack the Rong country.

When the northwest border is flat, Li Ming replaces the generals. It is impossible to replace the generals below. Qin Lin stays in the northwest. They will cooperate with Qin Lin’s military payment arrangements and transfers in Huajing. In time, the military power in the northwest will sooner or later fall. In the hands of Qin Lin.

These calculations are clear to everyone except Qin Zhenzhen. Li Chuan respectfully said: "Sister, don't worry, I will arrange it."

Li Rong replied, and looked at the sky: "It's not too early now. Go back first."

Li Chuan nodded in response, then turned to look at Qin Zhenzhen: "Can you go now?"

Qin Zhenzhen glanced at Pei Wenxuan, and after hesitating for a moment, he said, "I am relieved to see that Big Brother Pei is innocent. Now that it is inconvenient to see each other, I hope that Big Brother Pei will take care. If you have any difficulties in the future, I need my help. My elder brother asked the person who went to Jiulu Mountain to find my eldest brother to tell him on his behalf, and he really wouldn't refuse."

Hearing Qin Zhenzhen’s words, Pei Wenxuan looked flat, nodded, and only said: "Don't worry, I'm having a good time."

Qin Zhenzhen nodded, put on his hat again, and returned to Li Chuan. Li Chuan glanced at Li Rong, "Sister, I'm leaving."

Li Rong nodded, Li Chuan led Qin Zhenzhen out, Li Chuan bury Qin Zhenzhen short, Qin Zhenzhen ignored him coldly, Li Rong looked at the two walking away, and suddenly stopped. Li Chuan: "Chuan'er."

Li Chuan turned around with some doubts, and saw the end of the corridor. Li Rong stood in prison and looked at him quietly. She saw him continue to struggle. Li Chuan couldn’t understand it. After a long time, he heard Li Rong speak. Said: "Wait later, if you ask others to send Miss Qin Er, there is still something waiting for you in the palace, so go back soon."

Hearing this, Li Chuan laughed: "I see, you have to order this kind of thing too, be me a kid?"

With that said, Li Chuan waved his hand and left with Qin Zhenzhen.

Li Rong saw Li Chuan’s back, standing still a little at a loss. Although Pei Wenxuan did not see Li Rong’s look, he still guessed how much her thoughts were: "I don’t want the prince and Miss Qin Er to meet again. Together?"

This time he paid attention to the wording and didn't call it "zhenzhen" anymore.

Li Rong listened to his words, and said calmly: "Do you think again?"

"I met earlier this time." Pei Wenxuan was a little worried, "I don't know what will happen."

Li Rong did not speak, and Pei Wenxuan worried that she understood, as if she was only half a spring banquet, she would toss everything completely different from the previous life, but now Li Chuan and Qin Zhenzhen have met for so long, no one knows What will change.

In the last life, Li Chuan and Qin Zhen really only met one year later.

Qin Zhenzhen became Li Chuan's side concubine because he chose his concubine into the palace. At the beginning of the Eastern Palace, Qin Zhenzhen was at odds with Li Chuan. Li Chuan hardly met with her. She was often bullied in the Eastern Palace. Later, Pei Wenxuan helped and matched, and Qin Zhenzhen came into Li Chuan’s eyes. .

I don't know what's going on with Li Chuan. I have never understood love before. After being with Qin Zhenzhen, he suddenly went crazy, thinking only about this person.

But under the prestige, what brings is not only love, but also advantages.

So a year after Li Chuan ascended the throne, Qin Zhenzhen gave birth to Li Ping and died in the harem shortly after.

On the day of her death, Li Chuan had been holding her body and refused to let it go. It was Li Rong who had passed by and dragged the person out of Li Chuan's arms.

After Qin Zhenzhen's death, Li Chuan insisted on burying her as a queen and put her in his imperial tomb ahead of time. At that time, everyone just felt that Li Chuan died away, thinking that Li Chuan would be better in a few years.

Unexpectedly, he didn't. His temper was getting worse and worse, and he became more and more violent. The prince who had always been known for his benevolence in his youth, finally embarked on an old path similar to Li Ming.

He relentlessly suppressed the aristocratic family, and his iron-blooded wrist suppressed Chaotang, and only Li Rong could manage him a little bit.

However, in the case of the Su family, their siblings were eventually separated.

After the Su family's case, she was in bed due to injuries, and Li Chuan came to see her.

At that time, he was already very thin. They were separated by the curtain, and Li Rong looked at his figure, thinking that he was like a silhouette.

He spoke in a daze, and he didn't know what happened, so he talked about Qin Zhenzhen.

He said a lot that day, just like when he was young, when it came to the end, he suddenly spoke.

He said: "Sister, I have a beast in my heart. I can't shut it down. I'm afraid of it and myself. I'm sorry for hurting Sister."

"Fortunately," Li Chuan chuckled, "I have done what I should do. In the future, I will ask my sister for everything."

After speaking, he stood up and left her room like a born alchemist.

Soon after the Su family were buried, Li Chuan declared a monk. Pei Wenxuan took the officials to the Daxing Palace and knelt for a day, and finally reached a compromise. Li Chuan did not become a monk, but he did not take care of the affairs.

Twenty-five years later, Li Chuan never went to the early dynasty again, indulging in the illusion described by the alchemist every day, trying to find a way to bring the dead back to life.

In the second half of her life, she recalled countless times, if she did not let Li Chuan experience the demise of the crown prince, did not let him and Qin Zhenzhen meet, was it her younger brother, this life would be like when she was young, always cherishing hope, like a cold day Fire, according to this world.

But at that time, there was no turning back. She didn't think about the things that couldn't be changed, so she went on walking in a daze.

But now it's different, she really has a choice.

The two of them leaned on the same wall and stood on either side. Li Rong did not speak. Pei Wenxuan looked up at the afternoon sky. After a long time, Li Rong slowly said: "This time, you won't let you She is in the palace."

Pei Wenxuan did not speak, Li Rong was a little puzzled: "Why don't you keep silent?"

"Look at you."

Pei Wenxuan spoke plainly, and Li Rong was quite surprised: "Why look at me?"

"If you agree, I'll talk to Qin Lin. As I said, they want her to enter the palace, that's her business. As for whether or not to intervene directly to prevent her from entering the palace, that's your business."

This made Li Rong dumbfounded, and she couldn't understand.

She paused for a moment, thinking about it, and cautiously said: "Sorry, can you...speak more clearly? I don't understand."

Pei Wenxuan heard this, and lowered his eyes: "I shouldn't have interfered back then."

Li Rong didn't understand even more. She vaguely seemed to understand the literal meaning of this sentence. Pei Wenxuan seemed to say that he didn't plan to care about Qin Zhenzhen anymore.

But how is this possible?

Li Rong was at a loss.

Not to mention the weight of Qin Zhenzhen in Pei Wenxuan's heart, even if Qin Zhenzhen has no weight in Pei Wenxuan's heart, he is just a friend, according to Pei Wenxuan's personality, it is impossible to know that Qin Zhenzhen will die in the palace, and watch it. Qin Zhenzhen died.

And what does it mean if she agrees?

What does she need to agree to?

When did he need her to agree to his Pei Wenxuan matter? Can she manage it?

Li Rong was at a loss, she didn't even know how many questions should be divided into this question, and from which angle to ask.

Pei Wenxuan leaned against the wall, lowered his head and did not speak. He knew that Li Rong was going to ask him. His heartbeat was a little fast and he was so nervous. He was a little expecting Li Rong to ask. Find the right time to say something.

But he didn't know whether he should answer or not. After all, after so many years, saying this seemed to increase the sadness and regret, and there was no other useless.

The two calmed down, and Li Rong finally said, "Well, do you mean, I let you take care of it, you only care, if I don't let you, you don't care?"

Pei Wenxuan lowered his head, and after a while, he softly replied, "Yes."

"Why... why?"

Li Rong stammered a bit. Pei Wenxuan lowered his eyes and slowly said, "There is a boundary between people. Everyone is a spider web. A web involves other people. Everyone You need to move within this limit. If you exceed it, which side you go a little bit, it will cause pain to the other side."

Pei Wenxuan said this implicitly, but Li Rong understood. She gently leaned against the wall, listening to Pei Wenxuan's rare serious and peaceful words.

"She has her brother, her husband, and herself. She should have taken on her life. Every choice she makes will bring its results. Anyone's intervention is not a good thing."

"I have my responsibility, no matter where it comes from. Now that I have promised you to get married, I will restrain myself with the requirements of a husband."

"Until our contract ends?" Li Rong chuckled lightly.

Pei Wenxuan was silent. After a while, he said quietly: "Perhaps."

Li Rong listened to Pei Wenxuan's words, pulled a futon to the corner, sat down cross-legged, tidied up her clothes, and said with emotion: "Pei Wenxuan, you really haven't lived in vain in the past fifty years. If you had realized this early, In our last life, we might be able to grow old."

When Pei Wen declared this, his eyelashes trembled.

He didn't know what was wrong, he felt that Li Rong's words were like a sharp blade, and it penetrated him instantly. He could not tell where this feeling came from for a while, perhaps because of regret, perhaps dissatisfaction with the previous life, or perhaps the unspoken feelings when he was young in the previous life, dormant for years, then a certain moment of counterattack , One bite down, the bite was bloody.

The pain calmed Pei Wenxuan subconsciously, and he was used to entering a kind of extreme calm under extreme emotions.

Li Rong tidyed up her clothes, not knowing Pei Wenxuan's feelings, and continued to smile: "I knew you were smart, and I can figure out things sooner or later. As expected, you said that you look like you now, what you think, How many girls like you out there."

"You knew I would want to understand?" Pei Wenxuan said coldly, and Li Rong shook the fan and replied, "I think people are still very accurate."

"Then what do you think of me?"

"Now or before?"

"then."

Hearing this, Li Rong thought about it seriously, and tried hard to recall Pei Wenxuan 30 years ago, and slowly said: "You were very nice back then, but you were stubborn in your heart and couldn't think about it."

"How to say?"

"Back when you promised to take care of Qin Zhenzhen, you just thought that a gentleman would be difficult to chase after a word, and no matter what his situation is, he would help others." Li Rong said, pouring tea for herself and analyzing. "And you always think that you like Qin Zhenzhen. When you saw me, you suddenly fell under my pomegranate skirt. Your heart collapsed and contradicted. You can't accept it. Why do you think you are such a half-hearted man? What? So, you have no problem with your motivation, you just can’t figure it out."

Pei Wenxuan listened to Li Rongyun's lightly describing everything in the past. He lowered his eyes, and he felt very ear-piercing when he heard Li Rong's evaluation of him. But he knew clearly that the root cause of this harshness came from what Li Rong said was true.

"At that time," his voice was steady, without any emotion, "you know I like you."

"I'm not stupid."

Li Rong blew the green leaves on the tea: "If you didn't like it, could you be so good to me? It's just that you were still thin-skinned back then. I feel that you like me, and I am not sure."

"Then you..." Pei Wenxuan's voice was dry, "Why don't you wait for me?"

If she is willing to wait a little longer, he may be able to see his heart clearly and learn to grow, and they will not have such an end in their previous lives.

Li Rong couldn't help laughing when he heard this: "You are so funny. I didn't collect the tatters, so why wait for you?"

"Pei Wenxuan," Li Rong looked at herself in the cup, her voice calm, "In fact, you can't see clearly."

"In the last life, it was not that you were sorry for me, I left sadly, and then abandoned myself and spent the rest of my life with a eunuch. It's that I can actually get you, I chose not to, I will find new love, and be with my heart."

"A woman hates her rival in love because she feels that in the emotional competition, facing a good woman with who she is today, she has no chance of winning."

"So she always hopes that the other party is so disgusting, because her lover is blind, and one day her lover will suddenly wake up and find that she is so beautiful, but I don't need such comfort."

Li Rong smiled softly.

"I know it's really easy for me to beat Qin Zhen. If I want you, I don't even have to do anything, just wait, but I don't want to."

Li Rong looked up and saw the colorful clouds in the sky. Late Yan Feiming: "I, Li Rong, is a noble man, a blood relative of the emperor, and my appearance is not to be said to be beautiful in the world, but I am also considered to be famous in Huajing. The wealth and power are not embellished. Girl, you ask me why I am not waiting for you, what you should ask is—"

Li Rong drank the tea in his cup: "Why do you want me to wait for you? Even if Da Pei has a good life," Li Rong dragged his voice, with a bit of playfulness between the tones, "I'm not so charming. Ling Zhi fainted."

Pei Wenxuan listened to Li Rong's words, her words were calm and open-minded, even if she was burying him, talking about unpleasant past events, it was rare to let people open up and relax.

Pei Wenxuan hugged his chest and listened to Li Rong's words. He looked down at his feet, thought for a long time, and couldn't help but chuckle.

He suddenly felt that he seemed to know Li Rong for the first time.

Today's Li Rong is not the same as when she was young. She has the persistence and principles of 20-year-old Li Rong, but she has the open-mindedness and calmness far from 20-year-old Li Rong.

They used to argue and quarrel. He couldn't restrain himself as soon as he saw Su Rongqing next to her.

Now that he put aside his prejudice and looked at it, he had an unspeakable appreciation and affection.

This kind of affection has nothing to do with love, but it is really hard to look away from women in this world like Li Rong.

Seeing that Pei Wenxuan didn't answer for a long time, Li Rong couldn't help thinking that he might have poked Pei Wenxuan's heart. He is used to being stingy, and now he is pierced, afraid that he will not speak for a long time.

She was a little helpless and cursed secretly that the man was stingy and tight, and stood up and said: "Are you still talking this day? I'm leaving if you don't talk."

When Pei Wenxuan didn't speak, Li Rong stood up, flipped through a book by herself, sat at the table, knocked the seeds to see what he said.

After a while, she raised her head and noticed a roll of paper abruptly from the corner of the cell.

The paper was rolled up by a red ribbon, and looked well-behaved, as if it were a gift for someone, so beautiful.

Li Rong was a little confused, walked forward, bent over and picked up the rolled up character, and saw Pei Wenxuan's handwriting on it, which read:

The princess kissed her.

Pei Wenxuan's words are used to turning corruption into magic, and even ordinary things, plus his words, can show a bit of elegance.

Li Rong pursed her lips and felt a little funny. She pulled the ribbon and opened the piece of paper.

The paper slowly unfolded and saw 18-year-old Li Rong wearing a palace costume with a hairpin and peony, turning his head sideways and smiling.

It looked like an eighteen-year-old, but that smile was not the eighteen-year-old Li Rong.

Li Rong couldn't tell when there was so much charm in the bright publicity.

Pei Wenxuan's words are mentioned below the painting.

Only the true color of peony can move the capital when the flowers bloom.

Li Rong couldn't help laughing when she saw these words.

Pei Wenxuan was standing in front of the desk, and he drew Li Rong's lines carefully.

In fact, one thing he had never dared to face up to in his previous life was that in his entire life, he never felt that there was any woman more beautiful than Li Rong.

Only the peony is true, and the girl who has the beauty of peony in his heart is also Li Rong.

Qin Zhenzhen may be beautiful, but that kind of beauty has never stunned him, nor has it surprised him.

Only Li Rong.

But she was in full bloom early and withered quickly, and finally became a dead branch in his memory. He almost forgot the beautiful appearance, until he suddenly looked back, and suddenly saw it.

The peony kept in full bloom, but she didn't want to show him again.

The author has something to say: [Small Theater]

Question: "What does it mean for Pei Wen to send Li Rong's painting?"

Li Rong: "Reconciliation gift, I want to use this kind of grace to let me not quarrel with him, stand on the same front, and don't make him suffer."

Pei Wenxuan: "..."

Question: "Pei Wenxuan, don't be silent, stand up and speak."

Pei Wenxuan: "It's a love letter..."

Everyone: "..."

Pei Wenxuan: "Of course, the positioning of this love letter has to wait and look back, and you will discover my true intentions..."

Everyone: "Intention?"

Pei Wenxuan: "It's not that I don't want to fight with her, I want to get married with her, and I can fight for a lifetime."
