The two were in a stalemate for a long time, and finally Pei Qi mercifully decided to let him go and walked back to Qingxinyuan under his escort.
But even after returning to Qingxinyuan, Pei Qi couldn't relax too much.
Ever since Ye Rou entered the Prime Minister's Mansion, the little maid who had been following her was executed by Rong Qin, and two other maids were arranged for her.
Therefore, in the Prime Minister's Mansion, from Tu You's dozen secret guards to the woodshed boy and the maids and maids who served people, all of them except her were Rong Qin's people.
Wait...except her?
She might understand why Rong Qin would test her in every possible way, and even mercifully agree to take her, a "lady" who had no love at all, to Banlan Lake for the Qiqiao Festival. Perhaps it was not just because of her subtle changes, but also because of her slight changes. It was Rong Qin who wanted to use her to achieve some purpose.
If anyone wanted to arrange an undercover agent in the Prime Minister's Mansion, excluding secret guards and servants, it could only be her.
Recently, the Prime Minister Zuo and the Queen Mother are also preparing to rush back to the imperial capital from Qianfo Mountain. They must make complete preparations in advance. If the assassin who came to assassinate Rong Qin on the street today is Duan Qianjun's man, then Duan Qianjun will definitely try his best to follow up. Find a way to place his spy around Rong Qin.
After all, the most important thing about Duan Qianjun is that he knows himself and his enemy.
If he wanted to place an informant around Rong Qin, Duan Qianjun's best choice was to win over her, an unpopular but justifiable wife.
As for why Rong Qin took her to celebrate the Qiqiao Festival...
Oh, just use the trick.
If she stayed in the Prime Minister's Mansion all day long and was surrounded by Rong Qin's people, how could Duan Qianjun win over her?
She did this just to catch Duan Qianjun's big fish and test her "sincerity".
But Rong Qin, despite all your calculations, you couldn't calculate that I, Pei Qi, dared to come back to the imperial capital, and even turned into Ye Rou, who you thought you had always controlled.
Half a month later, it's Qiqiao Festival, let's see who is better.
But before that, she had to solve one thing.
The secret in her body is about to break out. Then her whole body will be in unbearable pain and she will have no strength. If Shang is discovered by Rong Qin, he will definitely notice her identity.
She had to find a way to see Xiaosi first.
Thinking of this, Pei Qi had another headache.
She knew that Rong Qin would not risk losing Zhaolan Palace to get rid of Xiaosi, not to mention that now that he knew that Pei Qi was not dead, he would lock Xiaosi up and wait for her to take the bait.
So where will he keep Xiaosi...
After thinking about it all the way, Pei Qi couldn't figure out the reason, so he just sat at the table and lay on it in defeat.
Not long after, Pei Qi's door was opened. She raised her head inquiringly and met the cold gaze of the person who came up to her.
Looking at this outfit, she is dressed in plain clothes, she should be the maid sent by Rong Qin to take care of Ye Rou.
It's just that although this maid has beautiful features, there is a coldness all over her body, which makes people unhappy.
No wonder he is from Rong Qin. With him, it is difficult to be a normal person.
From what Ye Rou said, this maid seems to be called...
Invite the moon.
"Yao Yue?" Pei Qi boldly called out tentatively.
Yao Yue's eyes moved slightly, she walked to the table and nodded: "What are your orders, madam?"
"No instructions." Pei Qi crossed his hands, propped up his head, and stared at her with a smile: "Sit down."
Yao Yue pursed her lips in confusion, and narrowed her delicate eyes: "My servant is of low status and I dare not sit with my wife."
Pei Qi:......
Look, what a good girl, she was at a carefree age, but Rong Qin made her look like this, and she turned out to be even more stupid than Tu You.
She has been pretending in front of Rong Qin all day. If she can't relax a little when she returns to her home, she will go crazy.
In addition, she also wanted to test to see if what she wanted to hear could be asked from this girl's mouth.
Pei Qi stood up, pinched Yao Yue's shoulders without any explanation, and pushed her directly onto the stool: "You don't have to follow any so-called rules in my place from now on."
Yao Yue was slightly startled, confused by Pei Qi's behavior.
Guessing what she was thinking, Pei Qi explained calmly: "You have been serving me for a while. I had a grudge against you because of my husband, so you and I have always been respectful to each other."
"I have been staying in the Prime Minister's Mansion for so long, and I have been keeping some things in my heart. How about I talk to you? Don't tell your husband secretly, or he will blame me again."
After saying that, Pei Qi looked scared for a while, fearing that Rong Qin would cause trouble for her.
Although Yao Yue was a little uncomfortable with "Ye Rou's" change, she still kept her dignity clear and nodded immediately: "It is my honor to be able to listen to Madam's thoughts."
Although Yao Yue said so on her face, Pei Qi knew that she was Rong Qin's, and the conversation between them would be transmitted to Rong Qin's ears word for word.
Therefore, her words cannot be so obvious, at least not to make Rong Qin suspicious.
When she came to Rong Qin, she wanted to win his trust and weaken his power, instead of continuing to be the weak and delicate Ye Rou.
Pei Qi first told her some past things, such as being treated coldly by Rong Qin when he first entered the prime minister's house. He had always been peaceful but could not get Rong Qin's kindness.
"But my husband agreed to accompany me to celebrate the Qiqiao Festival. Although I don't know why, I am still very happy." Pei Qi held his face in his hands, looking full of love.
Yao Yue was used to being taciturn and didn't know what to say, but seeing how happy she was, she raised her lips as if she was also infected: "Maybe the relationship between the Prime Minister and Madam will get better and better."
"Really?" Hearing this, Pei Qi held her hand in surprise and lowered his head shyly: "You have been in the palace longer than me. Do you know what your husband likes? Or...where does he often go?"
"I also... want my husband to like me."
Hearing the words, Yao Yue's eyes turned cold for a moment, and she met Pei Qi's eyes sharply: "Madam, are you asking me about the Prime Minister's movements?"
Pei prayed.
This girl is really hard to fool.
But the more you meet such a person, the less you can panic, otherwise everything will be lost.
Pei Qi nodded innocently, puzzled by her sudden sharpness: "Otherwise, what else can I ask you?"
Then the conversation changed: "If you know anything, tell me quickly, such as what he usually likes to eat, well... I remember that the restaurant in the north of the city has a good fish dish. Would the Prime Minister like it? How about that? Let’s sell it to him tomorrow.”
Seeing what Pei Qi said, Yao Yue put away the coldness in her eyes and moved her lips: "I don't dare to speculate on the Prime Minister's preferences, but the Prime Minister has said that Madam cannot leave Qingxinyuan, and I'm afraid she can't go to the restaurant. "
Tsk, he’s still a bit of a loser.
Hearing this, Pei Qi also knew that he couldn't ask anything else, so he didn't bother to waste any more words: "That's right, I can't leave Qingxinyuan."
After looking at the sky outside, Pei Qi rubbed his stomach: "Prepare some food, I'm hungry."
Yao Yue stood up, nodded and walked out: "Yes."
