MTL - Rebirth of the High Gate Mistress-Chapter 662 [Fan] No colorful phoenix with double flying wings (5)
Although the marriage in the palace was satisfactory, it could not be compared with the peace in Pingyang. After this incident, Princess Lan and Princess Yongqin gave up the idea of marrying Pingyang to Li Xiang, and the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law began to pay attention again. Other powerful families in Beijing.
That evening, Pei Yunqian returned from doing errands outside. As soon as he stepped into the house, Pingyang jumped out from behind the door mischievously, shocking Pei Yunqian.
Pei Yunqian looked at Pingyang who looked like a real person, and said with a smile: "You are just getting sick, and you look like this, so be careful."
"There are no other people here." As she said this, she pulled out a chair and sat down. Then she raised her hand and poured a cup of tea for Pei Yunqian. She held it to him with a smile and said, "This time I can successfully escape from marrying into a father-in-law." The government relies entirely on your help. If you hadn’t helped me get through Huiming in Mushroom, I’d probably have made an engagement with Li Xiang right now.”
Pei Yunqian took a sip of tea, looked at Pingyang, and sighed slightly: "I still feel guilty now. Hey! My aunt treats me so well, but I actually teamed up with you to deceive her. I have a bad conscience."
Pingyang looked at Pei Yunqian and replied with a smile: "Although we deceived the mother-in-law, it was all for her own good."
Seeing the confusion on Pei Yunqian's face, Pingyang continued: "Cousin, think about it, if I follow the wishes of my grandmother and mother-in-law and marry that Li Xiang, I will definitely have a bad life in the future, and how can my mother-in-law feel at ease? .”
Pei Yunqian nodded when he heard this and replied: "I have been asking around for the past few days. The young master Li Xiang of the Duke's mansion is indeed what you said. She has a good relationship with a maid who serves her. Because the Duke's mansion Family rules do not allow an unmarried man to take a concubine, so he has been secretly hiding it from the family. Last year, the new mistress of the Duke's family found out, so she sent the maid to Zhuangzi."
As she said that, she looked at Pingyang and said: "Such a man who knows that the family rules are not allowed but insists on making exceptions is probably not a good match. Besides, although the young master of the palace will never forget the maid, you will be with me in the future." Even after entering the door, I was also worried that he would spoil his concubine and destroy his wife."
When Pingyang heard this, she hurriedly replied: "Cousin, you are absolutely worried. If I marry him, I will definitely suffer like that."
Pei Yunqian glanced at Pingyang's solemn face. He frowned slightly and wondered: "You seem to have changed a lot since you came to Beijing." After that, he asked Pingyang: "Tell me the truth. How did you know these things in the palace when you entered the capital?"
Pingyang knew that his experiences in this past life and this life were too bizarre, so it was normal for Cousin Pei not to believe it.
However, even if he didn't believe it, he still went to great lengths to inquire about Li Xiang's situation because of her ridiculous words. Even his grandmother and mother, who had wanted to marry her into the palace, didn't even inquire about such private matters. , Pei Yunqian, a grown man like him, can find out about the private affairs of the back house, which shows that he must have put a lot of thought into it.
He is worried that he will not marry well, and he will not let himself bear even the slightest risk.
Pingyang felt sour and warm in her heart. She sniffed, looked at Pei Yunqian and said, "I dreamed about it, cousin. You may not believe it, but what I said is the truth."
Unexpectedly, Pei Yunqian looked at Pingyang, nodded, and replied: "I just believe you."
Pingyang then smiled.
Pei Yunqian saw her smiling, and he also laughed unconsciously. The two of them giggled at each other for a while. Pei Yunqian turned his eyes and looked out the window, and said softly to Pingyang: "It's getting dark, you should go back quickly."
Even though he loved her very much in his heart, and even though he couldn't let her go, Pei Yunqian still strictly abided by the etiquette when getting along with Pingyang.
To Pei Yunqian, Pingyang is the perfect moon in the night sky. No matter how much he desires her, he will not do anything to harm her reputation.
Pingyang naturally understood Cousin Pei as a person. She nodded in agreement, then turned around and walked out the door.
When they reached the corridor, Pingyang turned around again. Pei Yunqian was standing at the door, watching her.
In the western border of Wujin, the afterglow of the setting sun reflected on him, which made Pingyang couldn't help but recall the scene in her previous life. Li Xiang got the epidemic. She went to see Li Xiang in a panic. At the gate of the city, cousin Pei chased her in the sunset. side.
At that time, she actually didn't love Li Xiang much in her heart. It was just that he was the father of her three children and the head of the palace. Pingyang was not a capable woman. She couldn't imagine how she would be without Li Xiang. How to support such a big stall independently. Therefore, when he learned that Li Xiang was critically ill, Pingyang felt so scared and helpless.
Just when she was at her most vulnerable, Cousin Pei came to her side again. He firmly supported her. His presence always made her feel at ease.
Pingyang looked at Pei Yunqian and smiled sweetly.
Pei Yunqian also laughed.
Pingyang said to him: "Cousin, I know that although my grandmother and mother have given up the idea of marrying me to Li Xiang, they must be looking for other powerful families in Beijing."
After hearing Pingyang's words, Pei Yunqian's smile gradually faded away. After a moment of silence, he replied against his will: "As the princess, concubine and aunt, I naturally want to find you a family with the same family status." of marriage."
“But, cousin, actually I don’t want to marry into one of those high-ranking families.”
Pingyang subconsciously took two steps closer to Pei Yunqian. He stood on the steps and she stood at the bottom. She looked up at him and said, "Cousin, actually, the person I like in my heart is you."
Pei Yunqian and Yang Yang were separated by a flight of steps, and the brilliant sunset shone on them. At this moment, time seemed to be frozen.
Pingyang finally told his cousin Pei what was in his heart.
Pei Yunqian was very surprised when he heard Pingyang's words at first, but after a while, he returned to normal and his face became calm.
Pingyang knew in his heart that although cousin Pei loved her deeply, the resistance between them was still too great.
Pingyang knew Pei Yunqian well. He was a man with strong self-esteem. Having been dependent on others for so many years was enough to make him feel sad. Now that he was asked to marry her, as far as Prince Yong's palace was concerned, he had become someone who didn't know how to be generous and even repaid kindness with enmity.
For him, this is more than just love.
Pingyang looked at the silent Pei Yunqian, and she continued: "Cousin, this is my sincere words. I will not force you to make a decision, but I want to advise you to see your own heart clearly."
After saying that, Pingyang slowly turned around and walked out of the courtyard under the sunset.
“Pingyang-——”
As soon as she walked to the door, Pei Yunqian called her. Pingyang turned around. Pei Yunqian looked at her and replied sincerely: "Pingyang, I also like you deeply."
With that said, he hurriedly walked down the steps and came to Pingyang, but still kept a polite distance from her. He said to Pingyang: "I know this is difficult, but I will give it a try."
“I want to marry you, Pingyang.” Finally, he said firmly.
Happy Mid-Autumn Festival to everyone! Today, Reunion Day, Pingyang finally made a sweet confession to his cousin!
