Pei Qi's heart thumped, and he suddenly realized something was wrong, and couldn't help but take a few steps back cautiously.
In the blink of an eye, Duan Qianjun disappeared in front of her. Pei Qi felt a strong wind coming from behind her. Before she could turn her head, Duan Qianjun appeared behind her, clamping her face from behind and pressing it against her. Her jaw made it impossible for her to move.
"Duan Qianjun, you..."
Before Pei Qi could stop her, Duan Qianjun's hand irresistibly touched her cheek, rubbing back and forth at the junction between the human skin mask and her face.
After a long time, Duan Qianjun finally pried open a corner of the mask, and with an unexpected smile, he murmured to himself: "I heard that there is a master of disguise in the world, and the human skin mask made from his hands is like this. It's like it's on the face, you can't tell it at all, but now you see it, it's really well-deserved."
When Pei Qi panicked, she suddenly felt a tearing pain on her face. The human skin mask that fit her face so tightly was torn off by Duan Qianjun!
The shame of being exposed spread all over his body in an instant. Pei Qi turned around fiercely, pushed Duan Qianjun away with both hands.
Duan Qianjun raised his eyes and looked at the familiar but unexpected face, and was stunned for a moment.
After he figured everything out, Duan Qianjun burst out laughing, pacing back and forth next to Pei Qi, looking up and down: "I asked why this Miss Ye family has an inexplicable weirdness all over her body. I didn’t expect it to be you, little Imperial Master.”
"You who were supposed to be beheaded, after being rescued by the prodigal son Jiang Lingfeng, in order to protect Yumian Villa from being targeted by Rong Qin, you chose to separate from him and returned to the Imperial Capital by yourself, only to disappear out of thin air in the Imperial Capital. There is no news, I don’t think Rong Qin would have imagined that even if he tried his best, he would be searching for your whereabouts like a headless fly in the imperial capital, but you would be waiting for an opportunity under his nose.”
"After all, based on his understanding of you, the Imperial Master has always been a cautious person. How could he take a risky move and pay the price with his own life?"
Pei Qi clenched his fists and wiped away the panic in his eyes, replaced by an incorruptible coldness.
Now that she has been exposed in front of Duan Qianjun, she does not intend to continue to act stupid.
Pei Qi raised his head and met his eyes, neither humble nor arrogant: "Master Zuo Xiang is thoughtful and thoughtful. Pei Qi admires him very much."
"Oh, stop it, don't admire me. He is a villain who does all kinds of evil, and you should hate him." Duan Qianjun looked cynical, seeming to be teasing Pei Qi, who just scolded him righteously, and now he Compliment with a straight face.
But the teasing was all teasing. Although he had suspected that Ye Rou was someone else at this time, he didn't think about Pei Qi at all, and he didn't consciously look at her courage in a different light: "Well, it's not difficult for you, little girl. Come on, tell me, why are you looking for me?"
Now that Duan Qianjun had come straight to the point, Pei Qi did not show any pretense and directly explained his purpose: "I think Mr. Zuo Xiang should know what to do next after Rong Qin solved my stumbling block and trapped the prince in prison."
"Support Third Highness Jiang Fengchuan to succeed to the throne." Duan Qianjun narrowed his narrow eyes and blurted out after thinking.
As far as he knew, Rong Qin had a close relationship with Jiang Fengchuan, an illegitimate son outside the palace, since he entered the court. Jiang Fengchuan almost obeyed Rong Qin's opinions in doing things. With Rong Qin's help, he repeatedly made military exploits and devoured military power. Although his background is not favored by others, he is still angry but dare not speak out.
In addition, his temperament is cruel and violent. Unless he has nothing to do and wants to cause some trouble, who would mess with this evil star?
Because of this, Jiang Fengchuan ran rampant in the palace and never took anyone seriously. He also became the biggest competitor on the road to the crown prince's throne. At the same time, he was also a major worry for Pei Qi.
Based on the relationship between Jiang Fengchuan and Rong Qin, if he succeeds to the throne, Rong Qin will also take over the government affairs with full authority and become the regent above ten thousand people.
Therefore, Jiang Fengchuan must not be allowed to be the emperor.
Pei Qi crossed the corpses scattered on the ground and sat face to face with Duan Qianjun: "I think Mr. Zuo Xiang also knows what Jiang Fengchuan's succession means to you. No matter how much power you hide, the Queen Mother will not be able to protect you. You, your weight in the court will always be suppressed by Rong Qin."
"And I don't want to watch the world fall into the hands of a tyrant like Jiang Fengchuan. Therefore, this is something that Mr. Zuo Xiang and I have to prevent. Since you and I have a common goal, why not take this opportunity... …”
"So you, little girl, want to make a deal with me to prevent Jiang Fengchuan from succeeding to the throne?"
Before Pei Qi finished speaking, he was interrupted by Duan Qianjun. He played with the empty cup in his hand, turning it around, showing contempt: "Your abacus is too good."
"Now you have no power in your hands and no one behind you. You are just a fugitive who is being hunted by Rong Qin. Even the Pei family, which is connected by blood, has severed ties with you. Rather than cooperating with the truth, you should just say directly, I want to use the true hand to deal with Rong Qin in order to achieve my own goals."
"With the Queen Mother here, Jiang Fengchuan can't succeed in the throne, and you, don't even think about taking advantage of the truth."
As long as Jiang Fengchuan cannot succeed to the throne, there is nothing Rong Qin can do against him. He can still be equal to Rong Qin in the court, so why should he take the risk and cooperate with Pei Qi, a man with a lot of tricks?
After all, she was once evenly matched with Rong Qin. Unlike ordinary women, she would make a comeback if she wasn't careful.
If she was an ordinary girl like Ye Rou, who was gentle and gentle, he could use her to secretly explore Rong Qin's movements.
But she is Pei Qi.
He couldn't afford to play with that little national master.
As if he expected that persuading Duan Qianjun would not be so simple, Pei Qi took his time and said with a frivolous look, "Master Zuo Xiang doesn't really think that having the Queen Mother will give you nothing to fear."
"Don't forget, the Queen Mother returned to the imperial capital after the Qiqiao Festival. How could Rong Qin not think of what you want? He will definitely not wait foolishly for the Queen Mother to come back and let himself fall short."
Hearing this, the usual smile on Duan Qianjun's face gradually faded, and he moved his lips: "What you mean is that Rong Qin will let Jiang Fengchuan complete the throne before the Queen Mother returns."
"That's right." Pei Qi nodded: "So before the Queen Mother comes back, if you want to fight against Rong Qin, you Duan Qianjun alone is not enough. Even if you reveal all the forces hidden in the court, you can't do anything to him. .”
Because in Rong Qin's hands, in addition to the ministers attached to the court, the military power of Jiang Fengchuan and Ye Chong, he also had the Zhaolan Palace.
Even Fu Wen Pavilion and the forces they were unable to detect.
