The Fugitive White Moonlight of a Powerful Minister

   (This article is first published in Xiaoxiang Academy, please go to Xiaoxiang Academy for updates.)

  After Songjiang Mansion, Pei You really went to Jiaxing Mansion, and then to Huzhou Mansion.

  Wen Ning counted her fingers, and it has been three months since she came to Jiangnan this time. It was just after the Mid-Autumn Festival when we set off from the capital, but it was already December when we arrived in Huzhou.

  In her previous life, the longest time Pei You left Beijing was just over a month, so when she just left Beijing, she always thought that this trip to the south of the Yangtze River would take more than one month at most before returning to Beijing.

  I don’t want to stay directly from autumn to winter. If I don’t move quickly, I won’t be able to return to Beijing for the New Year.

   They probably had already decided that the last stop would be Huzhou, so she received many letters from Beijing when she arrived in Huzhou.

  Wen Tingchun's, Wen Lan Wenqi's, and of course Duan Rushuang's.

Several letters came from Duan Rushuang, asking if she was all right earlier, and two letters came in the middle, saying that shopkeeper Chen had already negotiated with the drug dealer in Qiantang, and that she was preparing to open the initial store of medicinal materials, and she had already rented the shop, everything If all goes well, it will be open for business at the beginning of the year.

   There is another letter that came recently. After briefly asking how she is in Jiangnan and when she plans to return to Beijing, she actually asked her at the end of the letter, does Wen Qi have someone he likes?

  Wen Ning's eyes widened.

   During the few months she was away, what happened to Duan Rushuang and Wen Qi? Otherwise, they have known each other for so long, why would Duan Rushuang ask this question at this time?

  She almost couldn't wait to reply to the letter to ask what happened, but Jiangnan was too far away from the capital, and after these letters came back and forth, it was time for her to return to Beijing.

  From the novelty, excitement and freedom when she first came to Jiangnan, Wen Ning has been a bit bored now, and can't wait to end and return to Beijing sooner.

   But Pei You didn't seem to be in a hurry. After finishing his lecture at Huzhou Academy, he didn't leave immediately like before.

  He stayed in Huzhou for an extra day.

  Wen Ning thought that the yamen had unfinished business, and he didn't want to go to the yamen, but asked her to find the wooden hairpin he gave her that day in Guining early in the morning.

  Wen Ning wore the hairpin that time. Fortunately, Gu Fei brought her entire dowry and found it easily.

  The costumes in Jiangnan are gorgeous, and it’s winter again. In fact, wearing a simple wooden hairpin does not match well. But she took it out and Pei You stuck it in her hair, and then said to take her out for a walk.

   Seeing that he was in a good mood, she didn't want to disagree with him over such a trivial matter, so she let him go.

  But Wen Ning quickly put this matter behind her, because it was snowing outside.

  There is not a lot of snow in the capital, but the poetic and picturesque scenery in the south of the Yangtze River is paired with snowflakes like goose feathers, which has a different artistic conception.

  Wen Ning was overjoyed as soon as she went out: "You know there will be snow today, so you stay here for an extra day?"

   Such a scene, if you are traveling in a carriage, it will be a waste.

  After winter, Pei You's clothes were also newly purchased in Jiangnan. Compared with his usual clothes, the color is lighter and the pattern is more plain, making him more elegant and elegant.

  He held a paper umbrella by Wen Ning's side, raised his eyebrows and said, "I haven't had such abilities yet."

   "Then why did you stay here for one more day?"

  Pei You raised his eyes and looked forward, squinting his eyes: "The scenery in Huzhou is very good, just take a look."

   There seemed to be an inaudible sigh between the words.

  Wen Ning thinks about it, it is true. She is tired of playing these days, but Pei You has been non-stop and has not rested for a day. It's hard to deal with all the things, so why don't you take a day off before starting?

   "Where do we go then?"

  Pei You seems to be in a good mood, she seems to be in a good mood, brushing off a piece of flying snow that fell on her hair, raised her eyebrows and said: "Of course I listen to Madam."

  Wen Ning gave him a gouging look in disgust. Whenever this person is in a good mood, he likes to recruit her.

  But she is in a good mood today, so she doesn't care about these verbal "cheaps" with him.

   "Then please ask your husband to come with me." Wen Ning turned his head, it's not only him who can take advantage of the advantages.

  Pei You had a faint smile in his eyes, lowered his eyes slightly, covered them, and followed Wen Ning with an umbrella.

   Gu Fei and Tu Bai, who were not far behind the two, looked at each other, Tu Bai pointed to the back, and Gu Fei nodded knowingly.

  After that, Gu Fei followed Pei You and Wen Ning from afar, while Tu Bai quickly hid in the dark.

  Since Suzhou Mansion, Wen Ning hasn't visited various shops for a while, although she doesn't plan to buy any more, she still enjoys shopping with great interest.

  In the afternoon, I wanted to go to the teahouse to listen to books as usual, but I didn't want Pei You to take her to a lake and go boating on the lake in the snow.

  The first snow in the south of the Yangtze River was not too heavy, and the lake was not like the north, where it would freeze as soon as it snowed. The boat has a black shed, and tea is boiled on a charcoal fire, which is a bit warm.

  Wen Ning is afraid of the cold, and when it comes to winter, she can't wait to hold the heater and stay out of the house every day. This is the first time that she has come to play on the lake when it is snowing.

  Seeing the snowflakes and catkins falling with the wind, and the reflection of them in the lake water, she was so happy that she got carried away.

  It is so beautiful.

   "It's only you literati and poets who came up with such an idea." Wen Ning has never played with snow, and couldn't help reaching out to catch the snow that fell from the lake.

  Pei You didn't say anything, but raised her eyelids to glance at Wen Ning's smiling face, picked up the boiled tea, and poured her a cup of hot tea.

  The two of them played outside for a whole day, and it was already dusk when they returned to the official post.

   It was snowing, Wen Ning's clothes were a little wet, she wanted to go back and change, and go to a restaurant for dinner, but not long after entering, Gu Fei served two bowls of soup.

   "My lord, madam, seeing the cold weather, the nurse at the official station specially made hot soup." After finishing speaking, she left.

  The official post in Huzhou did unexpectedly have a nanny. I didn't expect her to be so thoughtful, thinking of making soup for the two of them in snowy weather?

  But what surprised Wen Ning even more was the soup...

   After taking two sips, she felt a familiar taste.

  Perhaps it was because she was so impressed with the bowl of soup in the Wang residence, or rather, she was so impressed with Mrs. Wang, that after more than a year, she still remembered the taste.

  This bowl of soup is similar to Mrs. Wang's craftsmanship!

  Wen Ning almost blurted out, looked up and saw that Pei You only took a sip, then put down the spoon, got up and went to the window.

  Wen Ning's intuition was right.

  This bowl of soup is not only similar to Mrs. Wang's craftsmanship, but it is exactly from Mrs. Wang's hand.

  Even Pei You stayed in Huzhou for an extra day today, in fact, it was for Mrs. Wang.

  Before the Wang couple heard the news of Pei You's wedding, they excitedly wanted to go to Beijing to attend the wedding, but they thought of many ways to stop them. But what could be more important than a son raised by one hand getting married?

  Finally, Bai Bai had no choice but to ask the guard who was staring at the two to tell the truth.

It is only said that the son is now an official in the court, and it is inevitable that there will be one or two enemies. I am worried that the two will be used to deal with the son after they go to Beijing. Please stay in Huzhou with peace of mind. .

  That's why the Wangs gave up the idea of ​​going to Beijing.

   It’s just that this time Pei You came to Huzhou again, Wang Fu is fine, Mrs. Wang heard that he brought his wife here, how can he sit still? A few days earlier, she was eager to move, but Pei You was busy with official duties, Wen Ning often stayed at the official post, and she couldn't get in the school.

  Pei You stayed in Huzhou for an extra day.

  Outside the window, Tu Bai nodded to Pei You, indicating that the soup was indeed delivered by Mrs. Wang.

  Since today is an extra day specially reserved for Mrs. Wang, I intentionally took Wen Ning out to let Mrs. Wang see her at ease.

  Tu Bai has been following behind, seeing Mrs. Wang following behind, sometimes happy, sometimes gratified, sometimes taking out a handkerchief to wipe away tears, but still dare not go forward, it is also very sad.

   But he also knew that Wen Ning knew nothing about the matter of Wang Zhai, and the young master didn't want to involve her in it, so he would definitely not let the two meet at this time.

   Mrs. Wang followed for most of the morning, and she probably knew that she was not in good health. Seeing Pei You and Wen Ning going to the lake, she went back.

  Just in the evening, a soup was quietly placed at the gate of the official post.

  Tu Bai really couldn't bear to disappoint her kindness, so he brought the soup in.

   It's all because of the inexperience at the time. When that man's assassin assassinated Yingyao, it was clearly an excellent opportunity, but none of them survived.

  Otherwise, if you find out that person, not to mention killing him, even if you can know his details, why should you be so cautious today?

   Tu Bai secretly kicked the pillar on the aisle.

   Waiting to return to Beijing this time, and waiting for another chance next time... He will definitely not miss again!

But Wen Ning didn't know the twists and turns. Seeing Pei You put down the spoon and walk to the window, she looked at the falling snow outside the window with her hands behind her back. There was no joy on her face during the day. , seems to be a little depressed.

  She can drink this soup like Mrs. Wang's skill, and Pei Youding also tasted it in one bite.

   But he looked out of the window with a rather sad look. Could it be that the Wangs and his wife haven't contacted Pei You for so long?

  In Wen Ning's view, the fire in the palace was just an accident. When she asked Yichunyuan to save people, she was worried that Pei You would be suspicious, and when she found out about her, she asked the people in Yichunyuan to temporarily prevent the Wangs from returning to Beijing.

   But if the Wangs had never contacted Pei You, wouldn't he still not know that the Wangs were still alive?

  That's why drinking this somewhat familiar soup touched the scene and thought of the death of the Wangs?

  Wen Ning didn't sleep well that night.

  In the past, she only felt that Pei You was heartless and ruthless, and almost doubted whether he had feelings for the Wangs and his wife, and whether he was grateful for the kindness of the Wangs for their upbringing.

  Now it seems that he can even treat Wang Qinsheng well, so how can he be indifferent to the death of Wang and his wife?

  She intervened in this matter by accident, and she knew the inner world, so she had to let Pei You know.

  At least, let Pei You know that Wang and his wife are still alive.

   But she is a boudoir girl, and she only met the Wangs once, how could she explain to Pei You that everyone in the capital thought they were buried in flames, but she knew they were still alive?

  Wen Ning thought about this for several days, and in a blink of an eye, they returned to Qiantang Ferry.

   It’s been four months, and I’m finally leaving for Beijing.
