Pei Qi spent the next night sleepless.
All he could think about was how to find out the whereabouts of the Queen Mother from Rong Qina.
Until Chenshi, Su Ying came in from the outside with washing things and told her that Rong Qin had returned to the house.
Compared to Yao Yue's indifference, Su Ying seemed a bit calmer. Sometimes she would take the initiative to chat with her when she was bored to help her relax.
Thinking of Yaoyue, Pei Qi's mood became even lower, and he didn't know how she was doing now.
After washing her face, Pei Qi sat consciously in front of the dressing table and waited for Su Ying to paint her eyebrows and eyes while chatting with her: "When did the Prime Minister come back?"
"Back to Madam, just a stick of incense ago, the servant poured hot water and listened to the news." Su Ying pulled up Pei Qi's long hair and simply combed it into a bun: "But the Prime Minister has just stepped through the door. Then he was called away by Commander Tu, saying that there were guests visiting, it seemed like...someone from the Pei family was here?"
Pei family?
In the imperial capital, there are not many families with the surname Pei, but besides her Pei family, who else can be called a guest by the Prime Minister's Mansion?
Why did they come to Rong Qin?
Pei Yunjiang knew that she and Rong Qin were in the same boat, but she had managed to save the Pei family. Why would she die if she didn't just close the door?
No, she has to find Rong Qin.
Although Zhaolan Palace was there, Rong Qin did not dare to do anything to the Pei family, but after all, this was the Prime Minister's Mansion. If Rong Qin, an unstable guy, wanted to break the pot, Pei Yunjiang would definitely not get any benefits.
Even though Pei Yunjiang claimed to have kicked her out of the Pei family, it was still her father!
"Su Ying, prepare a meal. The prime minister has just returned home, so he must have missed breakfast. I will go with him."
After Su Ying finished cleaning up for her, Pei Qi held her wrist, a little eager but reasonable: "Although I don't know what he likes to eat, the cook in the house must know, so he must not be careless!"
"Yes, I understand." Su Ying listened to the instructions and did not notice anything wrong. She said so and prepared according to Pei Qi's instructions.
Although Rong Qin had long ago stipulated that she could not leave Qingxinyuan, the few guards at the door could not resist Pei Qi's insistence and various reasons. In addition, Pei Qi promised that she only went to Rong Qin to have a meal. Su Ying was following him again, so he let the person out.
In order to make it easier to monitor Pei Qi and Xiaosi, Rong Qin also moved his residence to Shenhua Pavilion, which is not far from Qingxinyuan. Therefore, even though Pei Qi was injured along the way, he did not expend much effort.
Entering the courtyard of Shenhua Pavilion, Pei Qi saw Tu You guarding the door of the attic from a distance, and the two people kneeling in front of her were none other than her biological father, Pei Yunjiang, and her good brother Pei Liang, who did not do anything serious all day long.
Rong Qin must be in the attic at this time.
Tu You saw Pei Qi entering the courtyard and hurriedly greeted him: "Madam, what are you doing?"
"I heard that Rong Qin had just come back. I thought he must not have had breakfast, so I thought of coming over to eat with him." Then, Pei Qi pointed to the closed door behind Tu You: "Is he in there?"
Hearing this, Tu You nodded: "Wait a moment, madam, I will go and report it right away."
"Okay, thank you, Commander Tu."
After Tu You entered, Pei Qi turned her gaze to Pei Yunjiang and Pei Yunjiang who were kneeling on the ground. There was some darkness and complexity in her eyes. She wanted to say something, but she hesitated for a while and swallowed it.
Rong Qin's inner strength is unpredictable, and she might not be discovered if she talks here.
Realizing that Pei Qi was staring at him, Pei Yunjiang also raised his head and looked at her. When he realized Pei Qi's identity, he nodded respectfully: "Madam."
Pei Liang, on the other hand, was not as respectful as Pei Yunjiang. He looked at Ye Rou's skin with greed in his eyes.
Oh, you will never change despite repeated admonitions.
"Who are you? Why are you kneeling here?" Pei Qi pretended not to know, stepped forward and asked curiously.
"He is the head of the Pei family, the biological father of Pei Qi, the guilty minister. However, he has nothing to do with Pei Qi now." Before Pei Yunjiang could reply, Rong Qin walked out of the attic and glanced at him contemptuously. Pei Yunjiang and Pei Qi turned their attention to Pei Qi again: "Don't you want to have a meal, madam? Come in."
"But they..."
"It's just idle, don't pay attention." Seeing that Pei Qi didn't move, Rong Qin grabbed her wrist and dragged her into the house: "I happen to be hungry, let's see what you brought."
When both of them entered the attic, Tu You took the food box from Su Ying's hand and sent it in, then exited and closed the door tightly.
As for Pei Yunjiang outside, Rong Qin was stunned and didn't give him any respect.
However, it is understandable that Rong Qin and her are mortal enemies, and Pei Yunjiang is her biological father by blood. It is normal for Rong Qin to hate her and dislike Pei Yunjiang and everyone in the Pei family.
On the contrary, it was him who gave Pei Yunjiang a good face, which made her even more suspicious.
Inside the room, Pei Qi saw that Rong Qin's face was not very good, so he didn't say much. He obediently opened the food box on the table and took out the food.
"I didn't tell you to stay in Qingxinyuan to recuperate. Why are you here?" Rong Qin closed his eyes and asked.
Pei Qi took a spoon and simply filled a bowl of porridge and handed it to Rong Qin. He looked at him sideways and said, "I just heard from Su Ying that you should send something over as soon as you get home. Don't be ignorant, okay? "
Say he is ungrateful?
This woman is simply... becoming more and more outspoken.
"There will be people in the Prime Minister's Mansion preparing food for the Prime Minister. It's unnecessary." Rong Qin sneered, obviously mistaking Pei Qi's kindness for nothing.
But even though he said this, he still picked up the bowl of porridge and took a spoonful of it into his mouth.
Pei Qi secretly glared at him and sat down far away from him.
For the Queen Mother's sake, she couldn't break up with Rong Qin yet, she couldn't bear it!
Thinking of this, Pei Qi took a piece of chicken and put it in his mouth, thinking it was Rong Qin, chewing it harder.
"It's really ugly to eat." After noticing Pei Qi's forbearing expression, Rong Qin said this playfully.
Pei Qi: "..."
So angry...
But anger is anger. Compared with Pei Qi, Rong Qin's elegant and elegant eating appearance does seem to be several levels lower than her.
Sure enough, people cannot eat with their temper.
When both of them had almost eaten, Pei Qi leaned back on the back chair, rubbed his stomach, and burped with satisfaction.
Recalling that Pei Yunjiang was still kneeling outside the door, and it was not an option to continue like this, Pei Qi spoke first: "Rong Qin, that Pei Yunjiang outside the door, are you really going to let him kneel down like this?"
"I think he's old. If he can't hold on..."
"If he dares to find the truth, he should suffer the consequences." Rong Qin didn't take it seriously, interrupted Pei Qi's words, turned around and walked into the study.
He glanced at Pei Qi from a distance and urged impatiently: "Don't hinder the servants from clearing the dishes, come in."
