There was once a plate full of chicken stew placed in front of me, but I didn’t cherish it. I didn’t regret it until there were only some slices of onion, ginger and garlic left in the plate. There is nothing more painful than this.
— Flatten.
Holding the chopsticks, Zhan Ping looked at the swept away dishes with a complicated expression.
If you haven't tasted the taste of food, you can still bear it. But this kind of feeling that you can't eat it after one bite, this feeling of being unable to stop and want to stop, is the most tormenting person.
Regret, now very regret.
When Zhanping was staring at the empty plate in a daze, Linglong who was not far away couldn't help snorting when he saw this scene.
Tao Ti's ears were sharp, and when she heard the laughter, she glanced sideways at Linglong.
Linglong held back her laughter, bent down and whispered something next to Tao Ti's ear.
When Tao Ti heard this, she glanced at the table next door calmly, and curled her lips together, showing a slight smile.
Seeing their master and servant whispering, Pei Yan raised his eyebrows slightly and asked, "What are you talking about, so funny?"
Tao Ti didn't hide from him, poured a cup of jasmine tea by herself, winked at him, and said with a smile, "I'll talk to you later."
Seeing the cunning in her bright eyebrows, Pei Yan slightly narrowed her eyes, "Okay."
...
After dinner, because they had to get up early tomorrow, everyone went straight back to their rooms to rest.
Compared with the tranquility in the palace, the night in the countryside is full of insects, frogs, and dogs barking from time to time.
Tao Ti and Pei Yan lived in the most spacious and brightest upper room in the inn. After being tidied up and cleaned by the palace staff, the comfort level has also improved a lot.
When Pei Yan came into the room after washing, Tao Ti was sitting by the window reading a book. Her black hair was draped obediently, her head was lowered, revealing a long snow-white neck, like a piece of white snow jade, in the warm yellow White glow by candlelight.
The breeze blew in from the window, and Pei Yan could smell the faint fragrance of her body after bathing, and his eyes fell on her white and tender earlobes, which were so small and exquisite that one wanted to reach out and pinch them.
His fingers moved slightly, and finally gradually closed.
Slowly walking around in front of her, just as he was about to call out softly, he saw her little head slid over the palm of her hand and fell slightly down.
Pei Yan couldn't help but laugh, did she really fall asleep
Tao Ti was in a daze, and suddenly felt a burst of clear pine scent approaching, and then, a wide palm firmly held her cheek.
At first, she felt that it was quite comfortable to lean on, but when she regained consciousness, she realized that something was wrong, her eyes widened suddenly, and she looked to the side.
When she saw Pei Yan in snow-white pajamas, she breathed a sigh of relief and woke up a little, "Your Highness, you are back."
"Hmm. Why don't you go to bed and sleep." Pei Yan slowly stretched out her hand, her tall figure cast a large shadow in front of her.
"I wanted to wait for you to come back, but I accidentally fell asleep." Tao Ti said embarrassedly, and quickly stood up, "Go to sleep now."
"Go first, and turn off the lights alone."
"it is good."
Tao Ti responded, and obediently went to the bed.
The bedding and pillows were all brought from the palace, and they were laid neatly and softly. It's just that the bed in the post station is not as good as the bed in the East Palace, and the space is obviously much smaller.
Tao Ti didn't feel anything when she lay on it, but she didn't realize how small the bed was until Pei Yan turned off the light and went to the bed to lie down!
Pei Yan's figure was already tall, even if Tao Ti shrunk in as much as possible, there was only a little distance between their shoulders, and they could clearly feel each other's breath.
Tao Ti didn't dare to move, for fear that if she was not careful, she would bump into something she didn't dare to touch, and it would be embarrassing.
In the quiet darkness, Pei Yanhu said slowly, "You haven't said what you were laughing at at dinner."
When this matter was mentioned, Tao Ti relaxed a little, and smiled and said Zhang Ping's reaction.
After listening, Pei Yan's tone also showed a bit of a smile, "Ah Ping is a bit of a guy, don't worry about it. If he dares to disrespect you again, you can just reprimand him directly. You are a lonely princess, with this that power."
Pausing for a moment, he restrained his smile, turned around suddenly, and faced Tao Ti.
With his sudden sideways movement, Tao Ti had no time to dodge, her heart was pounding.
Hearing another voice as heavy as gold and cold jade, "Ah Ti, you have been wronged during the time you married into the East Palace..."
Hearing his words, she was in a daze for a while before she came back to her senses, and stammered, "No, I'm not wronged. Actually, it's okay, I can understand, after all, I did cause trouble when I first got married. It is natural for them to reject me... But after getting to know each other, they treat me very well... "
Her breath was filled with his strong breath, but fortunately, the darkness inside the curtain could cover her blushing and hot cheeks.
When will he lie down again? This posture is really overwhelming.
Pei Yan could clearly feel the tense body of the person beside her. If he didn't turn around tonight, she might not be able to sleep all night.
Thinking of this, he hooked his lips. Afterwards, he raised his hand and rubbed her long hair, and said in a cheerful tone, "Okay, I have to get up early tomorrow and go on my way, go to sleep."
This intimate gesture made Tao Ti pause.
He rubbed her head...
It should be just a casual, unintentional little movement, right
It wasn't until the man next to her lay flat again that she came back to her senses and bit her lower lip lightly.
Yes, it must have been unintentional, nothing else!
On the first day of the wedding, he said that he would give Li Shu and himself, and today in the carriage he also said that they were friends, so... stop thinking about it! !
She took a deep breath, tried to close her eyes, and let herself fall asleep.
...
Chang'an City, the residence of the Third Prince.
Pei Lingbi looked at the calm Pei Changzhou in front of the desk, couldn't hold her breath, and asked, "Brother Huang, this is a rare and good opportunity, you really don't plan to plan something?"
Pei Changzhou slightly raised his eyelids, and said indifferently, "Have you forgotten the reprimand from the queen mother last time? She told us to be patient and not act rashly."
"Hold it, how long will it take! I heard that my father has been looking for the whereabouts of Xu Wenhe, a famous doctor in the south of the Yangtze River. If my father finds him and cures that sick man, I think you can bear it!"
Pei Changzhou, "..."
Pei Lingbi pursed her lips, and said again, "Maybe Father has already found Xu Wenhe, otherwise why would he suddenly send Pei Yan to Luoyang with confidence? Brother Emperor, can't you see that in our Father's heart, he wants to go to Luoyang?" The crown prince, Pei Yan is always the only one!"
"Don't talk about it." Pei Changzhou's hand holding the book suddenly stopped, and his thick eyebrows frowned, "Father must have made careful arrangements for the prince to go out. If something happened to him at this juncture, father would be the first to suspect him. I."
Pei Lingbi's dark eyeballs rolled around, "You can't touch the prince, but Tao Ti's head office?"
Pei Changzhou, "...?"
"She caused you to embarrass yourself in public last time, can you swallow it? What's more, she is getting more and more courageous now, threatening us with things from the past every now and then. I get angry when I see her putting on airs!" Pei Lingbi There was a trace of resentment in his eyes, and he said coldly, "It's not easy to touch her in the palace, but it's not easy to do it in Luoyang!"
After pondering for a long time, Pei Changzhou asked in a low voice, "What are you going to do?"
The corners of Pei Lingbi's lips were slightly raised, and she leaned close to Pei Changzhou to whisper something, her eyes were filled with gloomy color.
