As soon as the carriage stopped, Jiang Yuan's voice came from outside the carriage: "Princess, we are here." The person who drove the car today was Jiang Yuan.
Amber got out of the car first and planned to knock on the door. As for Chen Qianchen, he picked up a corner of the curtain and looked out casually, and his eyes and hands were stopped.
In front of him, the vermilion door of Chen's house was opened, and Chen Qianchen saw Chen Zhi, wearing a dark-patterned lake-colored lace, standing inside the threshold.
Beside Chen Zhi, standing side by side with her was a familiar tall figure.
Pei Linye and Chen Qianchen raised his eyebrows in surprise, but he didn't expect Pei Linye to be here too.
Pei Linye, wearing a straight green body, was taller than Chen Zhi, and had a calm and resolute temperament.
He hugged Chen Yunmu easily in his arms. Chen Yunmu was pointing at the door with a chubby finger, opening and closing his mouth, not knowing what he was talking about.
As he spoke, Chen Yunmu turned his head and looked out the gate.
He stood high now, and his vision was good. With a glance, he accidentally saw Chen Qianchen in the carriage. A smile suddenly appeared on his angry little face, and he shouted happily: "Sister!"
So, Chen Zhi's eyes also looked at Chen Qianchen, her eyebrows and eyes bent into a pleasant curve, and she also called out: "Sister Chen!"
Since Chen Zhi was here, Chen Qianchen got off the carriage directly outside the gate.
Chen Yunmu slowed down and realized that he was still being held by someone. He felt that this would damage his tall and mighty image in his sister's eyes. He patted Pei Linye on the shoulder and signaled the other party to put him down.
Pei Linye leaned over and put the boy on the ground.
"Sister, you are here!" Chen Yunmu ran towards his sister without waiting to stand firmly, like a lacquer swallow returning to his nest. He was too excited and too excited. He forgot about his feet for a moment, so his right foot was sprained by the high threshold, and his short and fat body fell forward...
"Brother Mu'er!"
Chen Zhi's expression changed, she took a step forward, and quickly helped Chen Yunmu. At the same time, Pei Linye also made a move.
He is a martial arts practitioner, so his movements are naturally faster and more agile than Chen Zhi, and he accurately grasped Chen Yunmu's upper left arm.
The next moment, Chen Zhi also grabbed Chen Yunmu's upper right arm.
"Little Hu" Chen Yunmu was pinned by the two of them, looking a little embarrassed, but finally stood firm and fell less.
Pei Linye immediately let go of Chen Yunmu, and when he stopped, he rubbed his head, rubbing his hair, as if he was admonished, and as if his elders were favored by his younger generation.
Chen Yunmu stuck out his tongue embarrassedly, giggled, trying to get away with it.
He is lively and naughty, and he is just an active naughty child who causes trouble from time to time, but he is better off admitting his mistakes and looking good.
When a delicate and cute naughty child smiles sweetly at you, many people really can't get angry.
"You kid, you are reckless!" Chen Zhi rebuked lightly and smiled at Pei Linye, meaning that she was laughing at him.
The two of them looked at each other, and time seemed to be frozen for a moment. Then Pei Linye raised his lips and smiled, his smile was shallow, and he said nothing.
At this time, Chen Qianchen, who had got off the carriage, also walked to the front of the gate.
"Prince." Pei Linye bowed to Chen Qianchen appropriately, with a nice smile and generous smile.
Before Chen Qianchen could ask questions, Chen Yunmu took the lead and said, "Sister, someone smashed our door in the middle of the night last night!"
"Follow me," Chen Yunmu pulled Chen Qianchen's right hand, crossed the threshold, raised his other hand, and pointed to the door that opened inward in front, "Look, these were cut out last night!"
I saw seven or eight deep knife marks on the red lacquer gate, which were as ferocious as the scratches of a wild beast, making people shocked to see.
Chen Qianchen narrowed his eyes slightly and frowned his beautiful and delicate willow eyebrows.
Chen Yunmu raised his head and chest, and chirped like a sparrow, saying, "Sister, I was not afraid last night, I have been with my mother!"
"I had a bow and arrow at that time. Huh, if that bad guy dared to enter the door, I would shoot him to death with one arrow!"
“…”
Chen Yunmu looked fierce and thought that he was a man, so he wanted to protect his home and his mother.
Chen Qianchen looked at Chen Zhi, and his insightful eyes seemed to see through her heart, and said, "Mom, are you planning to hide it from me?" She hit the nail on the head.
Chen Zhi: "..."
Chen Zhi was speechless for a moment.
She thought this was a small matter and did not intend to tell Chen Qianchen and Duke Mu's mansion about it. She did not want Chen Qianchen to suddenly visit him today.
Seeing that he could not hide it from Chen Qianchen, Chen Zhi said, "Sister Chen, it's okay. I asked Madam Chen to go to Jingzhao Mansion to report to the official early this morning."
In fact, she didn't tell Pei Linye about this, but...
"Your cousin heard that Madam Chen went to Jingzhao Mansion to report to the officials, so he came over to ask."
As he said that, Chen Zhi looked at Pei Linye a few steps away. She knew how well-informed the Jinyiwei was in the capital.
Madam Chen was also full of righteous indignation and complained angrily from the side: "I don't know who is doing such a thing that harms others and does not benefit myself!"
Thinking of last night, she still felt scared, and wondered whether to mention something to her wife, maybe she could borrow some guards from Chen Qianchen from the Chen Prince's Mansion.
Chen Qianchen stared at the terrible door with dark pupils.
Chen Zhi was about to say something, but Chen Qianchen asked, "Can it be Chu Lingxiao?"
Chen Qianchen did not see any evidence from the door. She just guessed that because such things harmed others and were not beneficial to oneself, it was for venting anger. The person who was most disgraceful to Chen Zhi was probably Chu Lingxiao.
Chen Zhi leaned over and sorted out Chen Yunmu's messy front, and then said, "It was found that Jingzhao Mansion was a gangster. The person has been arrested and is now locked in the prison of Jingzhao Mansion."
"Jing Zhaoyin said, maybe it was the gangster who saw that the woman lived here."
This kind of thing is not rare. From the most prominent to the people, there are many people who bully the weak and fear the strong. Sometimes they have unreasonable malice, sometimes they vent their anger, and sometimes they vent their emotions.
Pei Linye stared at Chen Zhi, his lips moved slightly, as if he wanted to say something, but he swallowed the words again.
Chen Qianchen withdrew his gaze from the door, but in a blink of an eye, she had a smile on her face and said to Chen Zhi: "Mom, I'm here today to invite you and Brother Mu to go out for an outing together."
"I promised Mu Ge'er and Qi Niang before. I happened to be idle these days. I want to take them for a walk. Mom, do you want to go?"
"Go." Chen Zhiyan smiled and nodded with an open-minded look, as if the door was damaged did not leave any trace in her heart.
In an instant, Chen Yunmu's eyes were as bright as gems, and he nodded quickly and said, "Go! Go together!"
Pei Linye clenched his fists and finally said, "There has been chaos in the capital recently, so it is not safe for you to go out."
Chen Qianchen: "..."
Her first reaction was, did Pei Linye think they should not leave the city recently?
The next moment, Pei Linye continued, "It's better for me to accompany you, I'll take a break."
Chen Qianchen: "..."
Chen Qianchen had a tilted face and always felt something was wrong. She hadn't even said that he would go there, but he said he was resting. Is it really sure?
"Mom!" Chen Yunmu's eyes became brighter. He looked up at Chen Zhi expectantly, grabbed her wrist, and shook it coquettishly.
Chen Zhi lowered her eyes and looked at Chen Yunmu, then looked up at Pei Linye, her eyes fluttering.
Seeing that his mother was in a good mood, Chen Qianchen resolutely made a decision: "Then let's go together."
Pei Linye breathed a sigh of relief, a soft smile rippled in his eyes. The flying corners of his lips made him look several years younger, and a flying look faintly radiated from the corners of his eyebrows and eyes.
"..." Chen Zhi originally thought it was not good, but her daughter agreed, so she agreed.
Chen Yunmu was so happy that he was about to jump up. He wanted to hug his sister's thighs, but he felt that this would lose his image as Mr. Mu!
He asked happily, "When will we go?"
As soon as this question arose, Chen Zhi was stunned. Then she realized that Pei Linye had just said that he had rested and looked at him again if he didn't know what day he was going out.
The two of them looked at each other silently, one was dignified and gentle as a willow, and the other was quiet and as stable as a rock.
When you look at each other, there is a faint atmosphere in the air that others cannot integrate into.
"..." Pei Linye's eyes stagnated, and he took the lead in moving away his eyes, with a expressionless face, but his eyes seemed a little guilty and a little cramped.
Chen Zhi chuckled and didn't say anything.
Seeing that Chen Zhi didn't answer her, Chen Yunmu went to ask Chen Qianchen again: "Sister, when will you go?"
"It's going to be three days later." Chen Qianchen said with a smile, "Your brother-in-law said that it was a good day."
She had already thought about where to go. They could go for horses, climb mountains, collect herbs, hunt, and dig some wild orchids... If the day was not enough, she could stay in a nearby village in the suburbs of Beijing for one night. She remembered that her mother and the prince had both villages in the western suburbs.
Pei Linye looked up at the cloudless blue sky at this moment, his eyebrows became softer and he smiled and said, "It will be good weather in the past few days, and it is suitable for going out for an outing."
Pei Linye has been in the army for more than ten years and knows a little bit of the celestial phenomena.
Chen Yunmu also subconsciously looked up at Lantian, touched his chin with one hand, and asked curiously: "Cousin, do you, like your brother-in-law, can you see the celestial phenomena?"
"You know a little." Pei Linye smiled and nodded, "It's not as good as your brother-in-law."
He has been in the army for more than ten years and knows a little bit of the celestial phenomena.
Chen Yunmu thought that his mother had told him that he would have to eat a little bit of food, so he decided to pay homage to the master in front of him first. He blinked his eyes in anticipation and flatteringly, saying, "Cousin, teach me in the future!" Hehe, he must learn it before his elder brother, and next time he will show off!
"Okay!" Pei Linye rubbed Chen Yunmu's head.
He was not convenient to stay for a long time, and then said to Chen Zhi: "Cousin, I have taken care of Jingzhao Mansion and the Five City Military and Ma Si. They will walk here more often when patrolling in the future. You might as well ask for some guards in the Duke's Mansion."
Pei Linye looked at Chen Zhi solemnly, with deep eyes.
Chen Zhi knew that if she dared to refuse, let alone Pei Linye, her daughter Chen Qianchen should have sent her to the guards of the palace to Chen's house. She was a traitor, so she nodded with a smile, and glanced at the scarred door again.
