Chapter 24: Darkness floods in the eyes

Too many things happened in this day, and Lu Qipei did not stay overnight in the other courtyard. After she understood Qi Yang's intentions, it seemed too ambiguous, not to mention that she was not at ease from the Lu family, so she resolutely declined. Up.
Qi Yang didn't force it, so he boarded the carriage and personally sent Lu Qipei back.
In this regard, Lu Qipei, who had already declined once, refused to refuse, so Qi Yang had to go. However, she didn't mean to ask Qi Yang to send her home. She still told the coachman to send her back to the Imperial Academy, planning to go home alone again.
The coachman nodded and agreed, and Lu Qipei was relieved to board the carriage, but unfortunately missed Qi Yang's wink at the coachman.
In the silent night, the carriage drove through the streets paved with bluestone slabs, and there were few pedestrians on the road.
The outside is dark and quiet, and people in the car will naturally not be bored to see the scenery. Therefore, they would not find that the carriage was not going to the Hanlin Academy, but to the Lu Mansion.
The candlelight in the carriage was bright, swaying slightly as the carriage moved. Perhaps because of a few drinks before, Lu Qipei was a little sleepy leaning on the carriage. Just as soon as her eyelids were drooping, she opened them again, staring at Qi Yang on the opposite side for a while, and then closed her eyes again tiredly. It went over and over again, but she never really fell asleep, and she didn't know what she was insisting on.
Qi Yang looked at her and saw her struggling over and over again, and finally persuaded: "If you are sleepy, go to bed for a while, and I will call you when I arrive."
Hearing this, Lu Qipei raised his eyelids and glanced at Qi Yang. The girl under the lights was enveloped in a soft light, which was so beautiful that it made people's heart beat. But sleepiness struck again, she finally stopped persisting, closed her eyes and fell into a light sleep without worry.
The other hospital is not far or near to Lu's house, but Lu Qipei has slept for a long time. When she woke up, she found that the carriage had stopped and was no longer driving, but Qi Yang, who was on the opposite side, was still looking at her, his eyes focused as if he was looking at some peerless treasure.
Lu Qipei sat up straight, his sleepiness disappeared instantly. She subconsciously raised her hand to touch her suddenly flushed face. She secretly breathed a sigh of relief without noticing anything unusual, and then asked: "Is it already here? Why doesn't Your Highness wake me up?"
Of course Qi Yang would not wake her up, she wished that the two could stay together for one more moment. So after listening to Lu Qipei's question, she just replied calmly: "You just arrived, and you woke up by yourself, without me calling."
Lu Qipei didn't doubt that he had him, and nodded obediently. After finishing his clothes, he said goodbye to Qi Yang again.
Qi Yang seemed to be a little unhappy with her insisting on leaving, and only waved her hand to let her go. Until Lu Qipei got out of the carriage and stared at the Lu Mansion in front of her, she suddenly raised the curtain and said to Lu Qipei: "My veil, I will find you tomorrow."
Lu Qipei turned his head and didn't have time to say anything. The curtains of the car had been lowered, and the carriage of the princess passed by her quickly.
She raised her hand, wanting to call to the carriage to say that the veil was on her body after it was washed, and she could return it to Qi Yang now. But the coachman obviously didn't give her this opportunity. He drove the carriage fast and quickly merged into the deep night, leaving only the sound of horseshoes gradually disappearing.
Lu Qipei stayed again, and when he realized that Qi Yang just wanted to have an excuse to find her again, he could only cry and laugh-she stood under the dim light outside Lu's house, her eyes looked helpless, but the corners of her mouth raised uncontrollably. A small arc is obviously happy. It's just that this good mood disappeared again when she turned her head to look at the gate of Lu Mansion.
Outside the gate of Lu Mansion, I don't know when there will be a human figure, Qi Bo stood there quietly like a ghost, and I don't know how long he has been watching.
Lu Qipei's heart suddenly sank, the arc of the corners of his mouth pulled back straight, and he pursed his lips and walked forward: "Why is Uncle Qi here? You are old now, this spring night is cold, or you should stay in the house. Stay here."
Lu Qipei's words are not abrupt to say, she was originally a gentle and innocent temperament, always caring for people around her but not harsh. This is what Qi Bo and the others deliberately cultivated. If she hadn't died once, I believe it would be difficult for her to be wary of these lives that watched her grow up.
Qi Bo smiled when he heard the words. The always serious person seemed to be kind at this moment: "The son will not return for a long time, I am a little worried. I saw the son when I came out, and there was no night wind blowing." Qi Yang took a look at the direction where the carriage was leaving, and then asked: "It's just that carriage just now...Is the son-in-law met any lady?"
He really saw it!
Lu Qipei's heart shuddered, but his face was still pure and innocent: "Well, I'm a new acquaintance recently, she kindly sent me back."
Qi Yang was caught off guard and was sent home directly. Lu Qipei was not surprised that the princess knew her residence, but he really had a headache before making up an excuse. However, what caught her even more by surprise was Qi Bo's next words. The old man looked at her very meaningfully: "Is it just a girl you just met? The porter said that the carriage had been parked outside the house for a long time."
Lu Qipei stagnated when he heard the words, and finally couldn't hold back the calm appearance he had maintained. She opened her eyes slightly and looked at Qi Bo, even if she didn't say anything, the latter could still see surprise and astonishment in her eyes.
Qi Bo was also slightly startled when he saw her reaction, and then glanced at her face, and soon found that she seemed to have just woke up. So the doubts were answered, the original speculation once again prevailed, and new calculations began in his heart.
But these are all things to follow, but Qi Bo said nothing more and took the initiative to welcome Lu Qipei into the mansion gate.
The conversation outside the door before seemed to be no different, but what happened this morning obviously still needs an explanation. Qi Bo hesitated again and again but did not tell Lu Qicheng out. After looking for a reasonable excuse, he put all the black pots on Ayu's head.
As for Ayu? Of course she will not survive Lu Qipei's return!
Lu Qipei didn't comment, but couldn't help frowning in his heart. In addition to disgusting Qi Bo perfunctory her, it is because after Ayu died, two new maids were added to her-Lu Qipei now does not expect the people around her to trust her. On the contrary, the more people sent to serve her, she The more people watched by her side, even if she wanted to run... well, she suddenly didn't want to run that way.
After dealing with Qi Bo and returning to the room, Lu Qipei retired the two new maids. After pacing back and forth in the room two times like beasts, he finally reached out and took out a towel from his arms.
The plain white color, with a few bamboo leaves embroidered on one corner, was the one Qi Yang gave to her yesterday.
Lu Qipei was very tired last night and went to bed early after taking a bath, but she also washed the veil before going to bed. Suddenly in an accident this morning, she had really had the idea of ​​escaping at the time. Before leaving, she saw the towel drying out here and still took it with her.
It wasn't until the whole day that she didn't belong, and when she saw Qi Yang, she also forgot to return it, and finally the other party said something before she remembered it. Now looking at the napkin in her hand, she couldn't help but think of the owner of the napkin.
Your Royal Highness, is really wayward...
From the beginning, Lu Qipei had never asked Qi Yang to send her home. With Qi Yang's intelligence, she would not fail to see her concerns. But even so, she still sent her back silently, and even left the carriage to park outside the house for a long time.
Lu Qipei understood that Qi Yang did it deliberately, although she didn't know the meaning of the little princess's move. But for her, Qi Yang's behavior apparently disrupted her arrangements-Qi Bo's shrewdness had already noticed Qi Yang and would never let it go easily. Especially when her official position came suddenly, Qi Bo must have been very concerned about it. If he knew the identity of Princess Qi Yang, the trouble was still to come.
After walking around the house a few times irritably, Lu Qipei could almost think of the consequences of letting it go. Just as it was an accident that she was recruited as a consort in the previous life, but this accident prompted Lu Qicheng to kill him, and now the situation is almost the same.
She can be Lu Qicheng's substitute, why can't Lu Qicheng be her substitute?
Even if Qi Yang already knew the identity of her woman, if she could hide her from the sky for a while, she believed that with the means of Lu Qicheng and others, she would be able to stir up a situation in the future. And Qi Yang, who was caught in it and knew Lu Qicheng's imposter, was afraid that he would not be able to escape the end of death!
Lu Qipei's hand holding the veil tightened unconsciously, and his heart was sinking gradually. No matter how he thought about it, he felt that he was in a predicament. Do you want her to tell Qi Yang clearly? Don't be kidding, nothing has happened yet, she rashly says something without any margin, even if she is as innocent as Qi Yang, she won't believe it!
Taking a step back, Qi Yang himself believes in her, but how can she believe that the little Lu family has the ability to calculate her magnificent princess? !
This incident itself is a bit weird, and Lu Qipei believes that her judgment is because she is deeply caught in the situation-even if at first she believed that she was only from a rich family in Jiangnan, but when more things happened later, she could gradually notice That's wrong.
The Lu family is not as simple as it seems, and Qi Bo is not just a housekeeper!
As for more, she is a destined abandoned son, how can she know?
At this moment, Lu Qipei began to feel annoyed that he was too easy-going in the past. Because she is at ease, she never explores the things around her. Many clues did not appear, but she let them go, and it was not until now that she needed to understand them.
Once again, she didn't seem to be much better than before, still weak and weak.
But in any case, she can't repeat the same mistakes in her previous life...Since Qi Yang is destined to appear in her life, and since the two have to face the doomed crisis, then why are she and Qi Yang who were sacrificed?
Thinking of the dead cat he saw this morning, Lu Qipei finally stopped pacing back and forth like a trapped beast.
She clutched Qi Yang's veil tightly in her hand, so hard that her knuckles turned white. The helpless and hesitant gaze gradually condensed, the usual Wen Tun Chunliang faded away, and the dark color surged in the pitch-black eyes.
If someone sees him by the side at this moment, I am afraid they will have to praise again, she and Lu Qicheng are indeed worthy of being relatives, and they even look ruthless!
