MTL - The Fugitive White Moonlight of a Powerful Minister-Chapter 154 You...wait for me, okay?
Although it is a small town in the southwest, the inn is quite particular, and the room is lit with a furnace of elegant incense.
Wen Ning has already taken a shower, changed into a plain milky white skirt, her hair is twisted half dry, sitting by the bronze mirror, trying to pull a simple bun with her bare hands.
As soon as it was locked, the door was pushed open.
Pei You probably also went to take a bath, changed into fresh clothes, and her hair was also half-dry, not as embarrassing as she was in the rain just now.
Turning around, he slammed the door shut with a bang.
Wen Ning's hands shook for no reason, she put down the comb in her hand, and sat upright with lowered eyebrows.
Pei You came in, and she turned around slightly. She didn't know what he was holding in his hand, and when she reached the square table in the wing room, she swung it up, and there was another "snap".
Wen Ning's shoulders shook again.
I don’t know why, obviously this matter doesn’t have much to do with him, it just looks a lot like…
When I was a child, I went out to play through dog holes and was caught by Wen Tingchun.
Feel very guilty.
After shaking the things in his hands, he didn't speak, just stood there, staring down at the top of her head.
The aura was so strong that Wen Ning involuntarily lowered her head. She had just finished bathing and hadn't hung the sachet, so both hands were tugging on her skirt.
After a long time, I heard him sneer: "You are capable!"
"A dozen men, just you and a girl, are you not afraid that they will sell you this time?"
Wen Ning looked down at her hands twisting her skirt, Nuonuo said: "They are all from the bodyguard agency...have status and family, they won't do such evil things..."
She took this into consideration when hiring people, and of course she would not hire people with unknown backgrounds.
Escorts often **** important goods. When hiring escorts, they will check the background very carefully, and even ask the escorts to deposit a sum of money in the Escort before each escort.
That's why Wen Ning chose to hire guards there, the way is right and the risk is small.
"The capital is thousands of miles away, so you are not afraid of accidents along the way, so that you will not be able to return to your home or live on your life?"
"No." Wen Ning said softly, "I hired so many guards, and I wouldn't easily provoke them unless I was idle. Besides, we traveled day and night and never entered towns all the way, so we couldn't provoke any vicious people..."
In the past, she was also afraid. She always felt that the world was difficult and dangerous, and it was not safe for a woman to be alone.
But after running out so many times in my previous life, there are more good people than bad people in this world. Most people are diligent and diligent, and just want to live a good life. Where can there be so many unscrupulous people from poor mountains and rivers?
"Then you are not afraid of this epidemic anymore? Do you know that almost all the thirteen cities in Lingnan have fallen? Do you know why this inn is so deserted today?"
Pei You's voice was deep and cold, and Wen condensed his neck when he raised the volume slightly.
"I..." Pei You's voice became louder, and her voice became softer, "I'm worried about my elder brother and sister-in-law..."
"You want to send them medicinal materials, why don't you find..." Pei You paused, and then said, "Look for your second brother? Could it be that your second brother has less methods than you?!"
"What if the second brother comes to Lingnan and catches an epidemic..." Wen Ning's voice was as low as a mosquito.
Pei You still laughed angrily: "The fate of others is fate, but yours is not?! You won't be infected with the epidemic?!"
Anyway, I lived one more time...
Wen Ning blinked, and was too fierce to make a sound.
Pei You also stopped talking for a while, but his deep eyes still fell on her head, it seemed that she was so angry that her breath was a little unstable. In the quiet room, except for the elegant incense, it was his up and down breathing.
After a while, the breathing gradually calmed down, and the eyes were no longer so oppressive, and even moved away from her.
Then there was a smirk, and the voice lowered a lot: "Co-authors are not afraid of the dangers of the world, and are not afraid of life and death, just be afraid of me alone?"
Wen Ning's eyelids trembled suddenly, and she raised her head.
Finally saw the eyebrows and eyes of the person before him.
I haven't seen him for two months, he looks rather thin, and midsummer is approaching, the sunshine in the south is much harsher than in the capital, his skin is not as white as jade before, but he has added a bit of heroism.
He had one hand behind his back, and the simple bun did not affect his demeanor. The slightly thinner cheek lines became tougher, and his eyes became sharper.
He looked at her sideways, with imperceptible red circles in his eyes, and his voice lowered as a whole: "Wen Ning, what have I done to you?"
Wen Ning's eyes also turned red, and she stood up stiffly.
Wanted to pull Pei You's sleeve, but he had already turned around and left the wing.
As soon as the door was closed, there was no sound in the wing room. Wen Ning sat back and stared blankly at the curling green smoke rising silently from the table.
Pei You knows.
He is not only sensitive to the perception of things, but also extremely sensitive to people's emotions. Before she married him, he had seen her prejudice and hostility towards him through the one or two negotiations.
Now that they get along very well, how could he not see that she is always on the defensive and...subconsciously afraid of him?
What did he do again?
Wen Ning would also ask herself the same these days.
She blamed the kindness and resentment in her previous life on Pei You in this life, is she right?
Wen Ning wiped the moisture from the end of her eyes and sighed.
Can't think clearly, the way is unclear.
It's like a deadlock, which can't be solved or let go.
She stood up, and, like the previous days, she let herself go and didn't think about it anymore.
What Pei You threw down on the square table turned out to be a bundle she put in the carriage, which contained a simple men's suit and some silver.
It was thrown so loudly, it should be that the silver knocked on the table.
Wen Ning took out all the clothes and money inside, the clothes will be worn tomorrow, money...
This baggage was originally used just in case, for running away, but now that it has bumped into Pei You, it is unnecessary.
She wrapped the silver in a bundle, and planned to put it in another place tomorrow.
After taking a break at the inn, Wen Ning packed up and was about to go to bed. Just as she was about to blow out the candles beside the bed, the door of the wing room was pushed open again.
Pei You is back again.
Wen Ning sat up from the bed, and saw that he had brought a small medicine pot from nowhere, sat down beside the bed without saying a word, took her hand, and gave her the medicine.
He actually noticed that the back of her hand was bitten by a mosquito.
Wen Ning's eyes were a little bit astringent again, and she said in a soft voice: "Brother Hu said it's just an ordinary mosquito. It's the first time I've come here and I haven't touched it before, so I react a little more."
Pei You didn't speak a word, but her lowered eyebrows were very indifferent, and after wiping one hand, she took the other.
The plaster is cold, and the back of the hand doesn't itch after rubbing it on.
Wen Ning raised her eyes to look at Pei You, and seeing him pursing her lips, she knew that he was still unhappy. I don't know if I'm angry about the last quarrel, or because she came to Lingnan without authorization this time.
"Why did you come to Lingnan?" She asked, "Did His Majesty condemn you for coming?"
Pei You gave a very indifferent "hmm".
"The one with you is..."
"Xie's army is elite." After a pause, he added, "Another 20,000 people are behind to help me control the Lingnan epidemic."
Xie Jiajun?
Wen Ning couldn't help feeling a little happy. Sure enough, after stabbing King Rui's basket out, Xie threw an olive branch at Pei You.
In her previous life, she fought with him against the southern barbarians. She thought that if Shen Jin survived, the affairs in the south would have nothing to do with him. She didn't want to work with him to control the epidemic in this life.
After serving the good medicine, Pei You put the medicine jar on the table next to the bed, with no expression on his face and no emotion in his voice.
"The wing room is not enough, so I'll borrow it for the night." Lie down in the clothes, turn around with her arms around her chest, and turn her back to Wen Ning.
Wen Ning blinked, lay down silently, and turned over, with her back to him.
As soon as she lay down, Pei You directly extinguished the candle.
The room was suddenly plunged into darkness.
It is raining today, and there is no moonlight outside. It's an unremarkable town with a small population, and naturally there are no lights outside.
When the eyes cannot see things, other senses become sharpened.
The tip of the nose is each other's breath, and the ear is the sound of each other's breathing.
Neither of them spoke, but the air became sticky.
Wen Ning hugged the thin blanket on her waist and abdomen tightly in the dark.
It's been a long time since I saw you, and I always feel that there are some things that should be said clearly, but I don't know where to start.
The two sides were silent for a while, but Pei You said first: "If you want to reconcile, stay back to Beijing, you and I will."
Wen Ning's breath was stagnant, she subconsciously tightened her five fingers, and blinked her eyes in the dark.
A kind of sour emotion spread in the chest cavity, thousands of words were tangled up in the heart, finally grabbed a thread, and said: "I..."
Her voice was unconsciously a little hoarse: "I didn't inquire about you and me... No, I asked Linglan to inquire about reconciliation, not to reconcile with you."
Wen Ning turned over, tidied up a little, and explained the ins and outs of this matter.
"I don't know who was watching me, so I just talked nonsense outside." The quiet town, the wing room is naturally extraordinarily quiet, and Wen Ning's voice is soft, "I thought about explaining to you, but it seems a bit Making a fuss out of a molehill... You have so many hidden guards in your hands, if you check them out, you will know the truth?"
She looked at Pei You's back, only a vague outline could be seen in the darkness.
The silhouette didn't move, and didn't make a sound.
Wen Ning frowned slightly, and turned her back again.
After being silent for a while, I still couldn't help but said, "I... It's not that I didn't plan for you."
She stretched out a hand, scratched the wall beside the bed, and said a little aggrieved: "I told you that I and..."
She paused, and didn't want to mention the word "Young Master Yi" again, and said, "The reason I told so many secrets of mine is to tell you what King Rui is hiding, so that he won't have time to target you everywhere again. ? Isn’t this planning for you?”
Wen Ning always feels like someone is pricking her heart with a needle every time she thinks of Pei You's last words that night.
She was so entangled in his affairs that she didn't sleep well for several nights. She tried her best and thought of such an excuse regardless of her reputation. Why didn't she plan for him?
"I said you were pretending, and I was wrong." Wen Ning unconsciously tightened her hands on the wall, "I was so angry at that time, it was inevitable that I was a little unscrupulous. But you lied to me that Yingyao was dead, didn't you? Is it worth being angry?"
Thinking about it, Wen Ning still felt extremely wronged.
How long has she been sad for causing Yingyao to die? How long have you blamed yourself? If Yingyao hadn't come to her, wouldn't he have planned to lie to her for the rest of his life?
He just said something so insignificant in his mouth, and he was so righteous and without remorse, how could he not be angry?
"You haven't done anything to me, you don't have to think about it, I saw you here today, in fact..." Wen Ning pressed the wall harder, her heart beat a little faster, and her cheeks felt a little hot, "I'm very happy."
Wen Ning was telling the truth.
She came to Lingnan alone with that cartload of medicinal materials, with a desperate determination. No matter how many difficulties she would encounter along the way, no matter what the outcome would be, even if there was a one out of ten possibility, she could no longer just watch Wen Lan and He Luan die.
She didn't expect to see Pei You here.
When he brought his men and horses here through the wind and rain, she actually returned to her previous life in a daze.
Every time she fled, she was caught by him at the last moment with a team like this.
But the moment she really saw his face clearly, she didn't feel so restless, she didn't even linger in her thoughts of her previous life, her first reaction was... Mr. Wen is so girly!
After the surprise, my whole heart settled down.
It seems that seeing him, the trip to Lingnan will no longer have any problems.
"You...wait for me, okay?" Wen Ning withdrew the hand that couldn't help but destroy the walls of other people's houses, and pinched her pillow cover instead.
Give her a little more time, she can always sort out the messy things and forget those things that shouldn't be remembered.
Everyone started again, and she didn't want to stay in the past.
But Wen Ning took a lot of courage to ask this question, but there was no response.
Pei You didn't make a sound, which made her almost suspect that what lay beside her was a piece of wood.
Wen Ning turned over and saw that he was still in the previous posture, blocking most of her sight like a mountain, she called him softly: "Pei You?"
Still no response.
Poke his back with the hand that had just scratched the wall, but there was no reaction at all.
Could it be... fell asleep?
Of course Wen Ning would not know that Pei You only received the news five days after she left Beijing, even if she set off that night, it was five or six days later than her.
Along the way, she traveled day and night, and the speed was not slow. If he wanted to catch up with her, he naturally had to work even harder day and night. Not to mention the inn these days, I haven't even closed my eyes for half an hour a day.
Just after finishing that sentence, before Wen Ning could sort out her emotions, she closed her eyes and lost consciousness again.
Now it is even more letting Wen Ning do what he does, no matter how lightly he sleeps on weekdays, he can't wake up again.
Facing the wall, Wen Ning expressed a lot of affection: "..."
Turned over, hugged her blanket and fell asleep by herself.
