The earring on Pei Yuanjun's ear was gone.
It is said that the earring was put on him by the emperor when he was a child, just to protect his safety.
There has always been a saying among the people that if a child has been in poor health since childhood, it is best to buy some women's clothes or give him a humble name so that he can be raised more easily.
There are those families where only one son is born for several generations, and they would even raise a good boy as a girl when he is young and make him wear women's clothes.
Pei Yuanjun is not that powerful. He is a member of the royal family. On the one hand, it is impossible for him to do this. On the other hand, he is the prince of the Prince of Yun County and will never do such a thing.
He was being raised in the palace at the time, and it was said that he was not in good health. The emperor was afraid that something might happen to him, so he had his ears pierced and an earring put on his ears.
Of course, there is another saying that Pei Yuanjun's fate was originally good, and the emperor kept him in the palace because of his good fate and he could ward off evil for the emperor. If something happened to him, the emperor would also be in danger, so naturally he had to carefully protect his life and not let anything happen to him.
Qu Moying has been wearing this earring ever since she met Pei Yuanjun, but now it is gone. How could she not be shocked
"Your Highness, where are your earrings?" Qu Moying asked after calming down.
Pei Yuanjun laughed, loosened his grip, and lay down flat, glancing at Qu Moying: "Why, do you like me wearing earrings?"
"No, this... isn't this what the emperor meant?" Qu Moying took a deep breath and looked at Pei Yuanjun's bloody earlobe. Was it torn off
"I'm not a child." Pei Yuanjun said indifferently.
Qu Moying stretched out her handkerchief, supported it with one hand, and reached out with the other hand to gently wipe the blood from his earlobe.
The blood had dried and she wiped it very carefully.
Pei Yuanjun was very quiet, looking at Qu Moying's lowered eyes with his raised eyebrows, and letting her wipe them without moving. His eyes looked somewhat obedient, as if he were a child. This feeling should never appear in him, but it happened at this moment...
Suddenly he stretched out his hand, and Qu Moying fell on his chest.
Qu Moying simply withdrew his other hand, lowered his eyes to look at Pei Yuanjun, and continued to wipe the blood from his ear while lying on his stomach.
"The prince is just making this up!" Qu Moying said softly.
Pei Yuanjun smiled, his handsome face showing a bit of elegance, "I pulled it by accident!"
"Accidentally? Your Highness is really good at finding excuses." Qu Moying glanced at him and continued to wipe carefully, "Your Highness was really decisive in pulling it, but fortunately it was decisive, so not too much blood was lost."
Because of his decisiveness, he tore it apart in one go.
If nothing had happened, and she had worn the earrings for so many years, why would she just tear them off like that
"I am a martial artist, so my hands are steady." Pei Yuanjun raised his head and whispered this in Qu Moying's ear in a charming voice.
The two people's breaths intertwined, and Pei Yuanjun suddenly laughed grimly: "I tore it off myself, what's the use of this thing!"
"Why tear it off at this time? Your Majesty has been wearing it for so many years, why are you in such a hurry to tear it off now?" Qu Moying glared at him.
Although there was no force in the words, the dissatisfaction in them was clearly conveyed.
"It's not that I'm in a hurry to tear it apart at this time, I just thought... since it's of no use, it's okay for me to tear it apart." Pei Yuanjun paused, stretched out his hand and hugged Qu Moying.
In his arms, he looked at her black hair and said slowly.
Qu Moying couldn't see his expression. He held her so tightly that she could hardly breathe. Her hands could no longer wipe his face.
"Your Highness... don't be angry. Some things are already in the past." Qu Moying struggled twice, but failed, so she simply relaxed and comforted him.
Even if Pei Yuanjun said nothing, she could sense the sinisterness in his heart.
"You can't get through it." Pei Yuanjun's hands relaxed a little and no longer held Qu Moying tightly. Sensing that she had no intention of struggling, his voice was light and cold.
"Your Highness, it will pass. Look... Didn't I get here this way as well?" Qu Moying didn't move, still leaning on his chest, not looking up at Pei Yuanjun, but just frowned slightly, with a very bad feeling.
Pei Yuanjun was too abnormal today.
"You can... get through?" Pei Yuanjun raised his eyebrows, a hint of cruelty flashed in his narrow eyes.
"It will pass. Even if it can't pass now, it will pass slowly in the future. But there is one thing I won't do." Qu Moying said slowly.
She didn't raise her head to force herself to look at Pei Yuanjun's face. It seemed that he didn't want her to see his expression, so she shouldn't force him.
"What do you mean?" Pei Yuanjun asked.
"I won't blame myself. We did nothing wrong. Some things were the fault of the previous generation. There is no reason for us to bear the responsibility. All we have to do is to do our best." Qu Moying sighed.
This was not to appease Pei Yuanjun. She was really being herself. With her deep hatred, she would walk step by step to her enemy with a sharp weapon...
"I value my life very much!" Qu Moying emphasized his tone again.
Pei Yuanjun's chuckles were heard in his ears. They seemed to be no different from his previous laughter, but Qu Moying keenly sensed that Pei Yuanjun's laughter was different this time. His heart, which had been lifted high, slowly fell.
"I also value my life very much!" Pei Yuanjun said lightly.
"Your Highness should cherish his life." Qu Moying nodded seriously. Although he didn't look up, he could still feel the nod on his chest. "Your Highness is going to marry me. Your Highness' life will not only belong to you, but also to me. I hope that your Highness will cherish his life more."
This is actually quite impolite.
Pei Yuanjun used to think that if he married Qu Moying, Qu Moying would be his, but now after hearing what Qu Moying said, he found it particularly pleasing to the ear, and he could actually be this little girl.
He looked at Qu Moying's thin little face with some disgust. The little face turned to the side was not looking at him, but he inexplicably felt that his heart and eyes were now full of him.
Reaching out and hugging Qu Moying's slender waist, Pei Yuanjun smiled a bit evilly: "Okay, I promise you!"
"Did the emperor faint from anger?" Pei Luoan put his hand on the corner of the table, staring at the queen sitting on the high throne in astonishment, his face full of shock.
"I'm not really angry, I just said that. I've never heard of the emperor getting so angry. I heard that even the chair in the imperial study was broken." The queen picked up her long nails and said leisurely. It can be seen that she was in a very good mood. She picked up the teacup and took a sip. "It has always been said that this person is lucky, what's good about it!"
"Mother, is Uncle Wang's fate really so good?" Pei Luoan asked half-doubtfully.
"That's what they said. I heard that it was said by the former Qingyun Temple Master... But I think it's just a saying.
"It's rare for the Queen to feel so relieved. She had been feeling depressed for so long, and she felt like she was letting it out today.
"How can he hold so much military power? It's all because of the emperor. Without the emperor's favor, he is nothing!" The queen sneered.
Pei Luoan fell silent for a long time before he said, "Mother, is this a little strange?"
"It is a bit strange. Let's find out. How did the tiger sent from the northern border offend this evil star? It was his own fault. I heard that he was injured, and it seems that the injury is serious." The Queen gently wiped her lips with a handkerchief, and a smile appeared on her brows.
"He's just a poor fellow. I don't know why the emperor cares so much about him!"
Although the Emperor valued the Prince of Yun in the past, he would never value him to this extent, or even allow Pei Yuanjun to become so powerful that he could interfere with the position of the Crown Prince.
Fortunately, this person was not stupid enough to stand on Pei Yusheng's side, otherwise his son would be in danger.
Thinking of this, the Queen Mother became extremely angry.
His son is the future emperor. Why should he be controlled by a small prince and depend on a small prince
"Mother, can you tell me what exactly the dispute was about?" Pei Luoan did not gloat over other people's misfortunes like the Queen, but said with a frown.
This incident came out of nowhere, which made him feel uneasy, especially since it happened to Pei Yuanjun.
"Your father won't let me interfere. If your father knew that I interfered, especially Pei Yuanjun's, he would be furious." The Queen's smile could no longer be maintained. She snorted coldly, feeling inexplicably panicked. When Pei Yuanjun was young, she had used her brain to think about it.
It's not that he was doing anything bad to Pei Yuanjun, he just wanted to keep Pei Yuanjun in his hands and show him favor, so that when his son grew up in the future, he would have someone he could use.
However, before her idea was implemented for a few days, the emperor summoned her and reprimanded her, asking her bluntly whether she had any ill intentions towards the royal family members, and warned her that if anything happened to Pei Yuanjun in the palace, she would be blamed.
The Empress was reprimanded for no reason. Seeing the Emperor's furious look, he even sacrificed her face and made her kneel in the imperial study for an hour. The Empress had never suffered such a big loss since she entered the palace.
Since then, every time I think of this incident, I feel anxious.
I always feel that Pei Yuanjun and I are incompatible. Next time I see him, I will try to avoid him if possible. It is best not to have a direct conflict with him.
"Mother, do you think... Princess of Yun really didn't have an affair with father..." Pei Luoan lowered his voice and couldn't help but ask it again.
"Impossible, this is absolutely impossible!" The Queen knew what he was going to ask, and hurriedly shook her head and scolded him, "Don't think in that direction, it's really impossible."
"But I always feel that... Uncle Wang's matter is very strange. Father is really concerned about Uncle Wang. This time, he was not angry because Uncle Wang was injured, or because he had a dispute with Uncle Wang?" Pei Luoan said worriedly, with a knot in his brows.
"Mother, I sent someone to ask the envoy from the northern border. Is everything alright?"
The envoy from the Northern Frontier entered the city yesterday and came to see the emperor today. His arrival was calm and he just wanted to test the sincerity of both sides...
Brought a unique beast from the northern border as a tribute gift...
