He looked at me and had no reaction for a moment.
But I think what I said was not completely beyond his expectations, but when he heard it, he was still at a loss.
After a while, he said, "You're leaving?"
"yes."
"Return to Xichuan?"
"yes."
"Do you have to leave?"
"It's time for me to go back, too."
"Is it Yan Qingchen's letter to ask you to go back?"
I was stunned for a moment, but immediately came to my senses. Du Yan came to see me and passed on the letter to me. Such a thing could not be hidden from his eyes and ears. So he nodded calmly: "Yes."
Then he stopped talking.
I waited for a while, but before he agreed, or until he was angry, and there was not even a basic response. He was silent, and there was no emotion in the silence. I couldn't help but want to call him, but after thinking about it, I didn't speak.
After a long silence and waiting, there was a sound of footsteps outside.
Twist twist, someone was knocking on the door very lightly, and then Sun Jingfei's voice rang out of the door-
"emperor."
When Pei Yuanhao heard this, he immediately raised his head and said, "Come in."
Sun Jingfei walked in from outside and saluted him. I hurriedly stepped on my feet and stood up and took two steps to the side. Sun Jingfei said: "Report to the emperor, the Imperial Guard found a body while cleaning up Shenqimen."
We both looked at each other and became nervous.
Sun Jingfei came up and said that he found a corpse. Could it be?
However, before we could speak, Sun Jingfei said, "Because there were too many people around Shenqimen at that time, they stepped on each other and their bodies were a little unrecognizable. However, we judged from the man's broken clothes and the family emblem on him that it should be the corpse of Gongsun Qi, the son of the Marquis of Jin."
“…”
“…”
Pei Yuanhao and I didn't say anything.
But clearly, I felt relieved when I heard him.
At that moment, I almost thought they had discovered Nangong Lizhu's body. If this was the case, let alone anything else, I am afraid that Pei Yuanhao's concerns would be even heavier.
Fortunately, not.
However, Gongsun Qi - is he dead?
I remembered that the rebels besieged Jixian Palace and found that the situation was wrong. This man was the first to escape, but he didn't expect that the other people might have escaped. But he was the one who was most greedy for life and feared death and died.
Pei Yuanhao said: "Are you sure it's him?"
"The surrendered people have been identified, and they all say that he should be correct."
“…”
Pei Yuanhao had a calm face and nodded gently: "Check his body first. Since the people from the Gongsun family have dared to use a knife in the imperial city, they should know what to do next. This person's body is useful."
Sun Jingfei trembled slightly, but he immediately said, "The villain understands."
After saying that, he was about to withdraw, and Pei Yuanhao said again: "Call Yuquan in. I want to go back to the bedroom."
"yes."
I was stunned and looked back at him, but he didn't talk to me anymore. After a while, Eunuch Yu brought a few strong eunuchs in with rattan chairs, packed up, and sent him back.
I subconsciously followed him to the door of the side hall, with my figure hanging on the corner of his eyes, and at this time I said, "Are Miaoyan still having dinner there?"
"yes."
"You take her back first."
After saying that, he waved his hand and the little eunuchs carried him forward with a groan.
I stopped where I was, watching his back disappear at the end of the corridor, and I lost my attention for a moment.
Did he agree or not?

When I returned to Yihua Palace with Miaoyan with great worries, it was already dark.
But this night is obviously more noisy than ever and it is difficult to calm down.
Madam Wu and Su Su also came back. Compared to other palaces, although the delicate empresses were greatly frightened, their things were not damaged much. Yihua Palace was not so lucky. When they pushed open the palace gate, they saw the mess all over the ground. When they returned to the house, they found that almost all the things inside could fall, which was completely devastated.
Su Su was so angry that she stamped her feet: "This is a robber!"
I was a little confused at first, but later I remembered that the rebels went to the palace to find the emperor, and the other was to find me and Nangong Lizhu. These three people were all in Yihua Palace. Aren’t they going to turn the whole thing?
Miaoyan went back to his room and looked around, and then came out and was angry: "My things are messed up!"
"What a gang of robbers!"
"I want my father to behead them all!"
She was angry there, and Madam Wu and Su Su naturally went up to coax her. I stood in the middle of a messy room, looking at the round table that was overturned to the ground, the scattered stools, the bedding that was dragged to the ground, the curtains that were cracked into pieces, and - on the desk near the window, all the books were swept to the ground.
I walked over, squatted down and picked it up.
Fortunately, there were not many books, so I picked them up and piled them on the table. I suddenly remembered something again, hurriedly picked up the books and flipped them one by one.
No.
No.
Still not.
The letter I had caught in the book was gone.
I was also a little panicked for a moment. I looked back at the messy room, and I didn’t know where the corner it fell, or was destroyed. If this is the case, then it would be fine. What I fear the most is - what if it is taken away?
Will those rebels come in and find the letter and take it away?
I felt a little breathless in my heart. At this time, I saw Xiao Fuzi walking in from outside with a few eunuchs. As soon as he came in, he saluted Miaoyan, who was still angry, and then came over and bowed, saying, "Miss, the emperor knows that Yihua Palace is damaged so much, and General Manager Yu cannot draw anyone out for the time being, so he has to complain about the lady and the princess first."
I said, "It doesn't matter. Let them tidy up the mattress and have a sleeping place at night."
Xiao Fuzi said, "Your Majesty, that's not what he ordered."
I looked at him: "Hmm?"
"The emperor ordered me to come over to take the lady and the princess to stay in another place temporarily. When the Yihua Palace is cleaned up and repaired, we will talk about moving back."
My brow frowned again: "Where does he want us to move to temporarily live there."
