After I was reborn, I became Mrs. Chief Assistant

Chapter 146 as you wish

Yun Zhuo would not be so stupid as to offend him with angry words, she just said softly: "I know that I have no strengths, stubborn, greedy, and selfish. Of course, in the eyes of Master Xie, I may still think I am stupid. humble."

"But I have always been like this. I stumbled and survived like this when no one was protecting me before. I can't change it. I am lucky and humble, and it is a great honor to be taken care of by you occasionally. But people always have to go their own way Lu, Mr. Xie really doesn’t have to force himself to this day just because of the promise he made to the teacher back then.”

Xie Jie looked at her calmly. Under the reflection of the long street lights outside the window, her magnificent eyebrows and eyes were dyed with a thin layer of glamorous meaning, like the first rouge-colored flower branches slowly twitching in a handful of fresh snow under the blue sky. strip.

Many words came out of his mind, and he could have explained it, but he took a sip of tea slowly and said, "That will be as you wish."

After saying that, he got up with a flick of his sleeves, and without looking at Yun Zhuo who was facing the window and looking at the long street, he called Wen Lu downstairs.

Yun Zhuo felt that it would be embarrassing if they went downstairs together at this time, so he sat quietly by the window, estimating the time, and planned to wait until Xie Jie left before going out.

After Xie Jie went downstairs, he saw the coachman and maid dozing off in front of the rotten stone building. After all, he was worried, and turned to Wen Lu, who was following behind him with a sword in his arms, "You should protect her back secretly, don't be caught Found."

Wen Lu nodded and said yes.

……

Because Xie Jie went to Zhanglu Academy to supervise the students, even Tan Huiyue's status as a sacrificial wine rose. constantly.

Xie Jie is an extremely human minister, but also simple in the emperor's heart.Everyone wants to find out as much news as possible about such a person. After all, we are all officials in the same dynasty, and we will spend a long time together in the future, so many people are planning to invite Tan Huiyue to the banquet in advance, just to get information from him. I can understand some of Xie Jie's likes and dislikes.

Although Tan Huiyue likes to drink, he prefers to drink alone.Therefore, he basically pushed all the invitations that came one after another like these snowflakes.

However, today's banquet was really hard to refuse, so he could only bite the bullet and go to the appointment.

The host is Duan Wang Pei Yan.

Tan Huiyue is just a small school offering wine, he doesn't have to give others face, but with a status like Pei Yan, he can't afford to offend him.

Most of the companions are sons and daughters of powerful families, who have no real power in their hands, but they are not dandies like Shen Qinghe and Yun Xuanhe, but are mediocre in all aspects, and they are inconspicuous among the crowd.

Tan Huiyue began to regret after seeing such a battle - Pei Yan's thoughts were too meticulous.He is with these people, no matter how suspicious His Majesty is, he will not doubt him.

With such a person, even if Tan Huiyue is innocent, he will inevitably leave some color on his body.

He took a deep breath, walked forward with a smile on his face, and sat down very naturally.

During the chatter, he was always on guard against these people, as expected, after a few glasses of wine, someone pulled him to talk, although they didn't point directly at Xie Jie, but they still surrounded him.

Tan Huiyue always fooled the past with vague words.

But in the end, after drinking for three rounds, everyone's ears were already hot, and some of them couldn't drink enough, so they lay down on the table in front of them, and some were talking nonsense with drunken eyes, and the rest of them gathered together The drinking orders were carried out together, and looking around, the only ones who were somewhat sober were Pei Yan, who had never spoken much, and Tan Huiyue, who was always on guard.

Pei Yan picked up a chopsticks dish, chewed and ate a few mouthfuls of food slowly, and then picked up the gilt silver chiseled jug carved with lotus patterns, and poured a glass of wine for Tan Huiyue.

Seeing this, Tan Huiyue hurried to pick him up.

Pei Yan didn't give it to him, held the wine glass in his hand, pushed his hand, and said: "To be honest, I invite you to come here today for a sacrificial wine, in fact, I want to ask for something."

Tan Huiyue's gradually relaxed heart became clearer because of his words, but he still squinted and said with his tongue open: "Duan... If His Royal Highness Duan has anything to do, just say it, just say it, and ask for it!"

Pei Yan smiled slightly, and toasted the wine to him: "I have admired the fourth girl of the Yun family for a long time, I heard that she has suffered a lot of grievances in Zhanglu Academy, and she has no good friends. I don't know if this is true or not, please Tell each other with a sacrificial wine."

It turned out to be about Yunzhuo... Tan Huiyue really squinted his eyes this time, and put all his weight on the back of the chair, his whole body slumped into a ball, not at all dignified and solemn during the day.

He was already half drunk.

"Miss Yun Si is amazing, but...no one in the academy dares to wrong her, let alone I see, thank... Master Xie appreciates her very much, if she is really wronged, it must be..."

Before he could finish his sentence, he fell headfirst on the table and died of drunkenness.

Pei Yan pushed his shoulder, but failed to push.So he ordered the left and right to send Tan Huiyue back to the school.

He sat on the main seat, his face was normal, but there were waves in his heart.

He was always constrained by Xie Jie in his previous life, and for a long time, he had been working hard to defeat Xie Jie.No one knew better than him what kind of person Xie Jie was.

Ordinary people still have a warm heart, but he is completely cold-hearted.

Back then Anping admired him and even died defending him in front of the rebellious army, but there was no wavering in his eyes.It seemed that the person who died was just an insignificant person and had nothing to do with him.

It was then that he finally understood why he couldn't beat Xie Jie.

He will always have scruples, but Xie Jie doesn't.

Xie Jie didn't care about anything.

But Tan Huiyue said that if Yun Zhuo was wronged in the academy, Xie Jie would definitely help her.

Could it be that Xie Jie also fell in love with Yun Zhuo?
Thinking of this, Pei Yan's complexion finally became ugly.

He glanced at the drunk young masters on the table, and left Qunfang Tower with a clear mind.

The sky and the streets are as cool as water at night, and his shadow drags long on the ground.Red crepe lanterns were hung on both sides of the street, and the lights were dim. It looked like a very lively scene, but he had never felt so lonely.

The sound of carriages and horses sounded, and he moved to the side to avoid it, but suddenly he saw the carriage stopped beside him, and the dark curtain was lifted, revealing a face as handsome as jade.

Pei Yan was startled, and the hands covered in the wide sleeves gradually became cold.

After careful calculation, this should be the first time since he was reborn that the two faced each other face to face.

Just as he was thinking, he heard the person in the carriage say with a smile: "It's so late, does Prince Duan want my servant to give you a ride? I remember, Huaquanzhi is not far from here, right?"
