Li Rong watched Pei Wenxuan quietly, she looked at Pei Wenxuan's profile at this moment, he was very thin, like pine bamboo and white snow, standing in front of the hall was the most typical appearance of a civil servant in the hearts of everyone in this summer.
He is holding a pen in his hand, and his eyes are looking at the mountains and rivers.
At this moment, what Li Rong saw from him was not only his handsome facial features, but also the appearance of the lover whom Li Rong admired most when a girl dreamed of spring.
A man is the most attractive. He never loves a woman more than he devotes himself to a woman.
It's that he himself can see the world and carry mountains and rivers on his shoulders, but he is willing to bow his head for you and gently brush a peach blossom from his hair.
Pei Wenxuan noticed Li Rong's gaze, he turned his head and asked with some doubts, "Your Highness?"
Li Rong retracted her mind, forcibly turned her eyes away, looked at Xie Lanqing in the prison, and said with a smile, "Master Xie, what you want to know, I told you, Master Xie should be able to walk in peace."
Xie Lanqing was a little stunned, Li Rong nodded slightly, turned her head and said to Su Rongqing: "Su Shilang, if there is nothing else, this palace will go back to the mansion first."
Su Rongqing saluted respectfully, Li Rong and Pei Wenxuan said goodbye to Xie Lanqing, Xie Lanqing was sitting in the prison, he didn't answer, he stared blankly in one direction, as if he saw someone or something.
Su Rongqing and Xie Lanqing said goodbye and followed Li Rong out.
When they walked out the door, the three discovered that it was raining in winter. The winter rain was fine and dense, falling with the snow. Pei Wenxuan asked his attendants to get the carriage, and then the three of them stood together under the corridor, silent.
Su Rongqing looked at the rain and snow outside, and after a long time, he slowly said: "What Mr. Pei just said, Su thinks it is wrong. The way of heaven operates, and it has its own rules. Blindly breaking the rules in order to protect his own desires and harming others, this is not a problem. Yes. Mr. Xie's biggest mistake was that he should not have contacted Lin Xia back then. There is a difference between superiors and inferiors, and the distinction between clouds and mud is destined to be fruitless. It should be restrained from the beginning.
"Like Su Shilang?" Pei Wenxuan looked at Yu Xue and said calmly, "In Su Shilang's world, for the sake of the family, would you kill all your wives?"
Pei Wenxuan said, turned his head and looked at Su Rongqing. Li Rong's heart tightened, and she said indifferently, "The concubine is unprovoked, what are you doing with these unfavorable words?"
"I just asked casually," Pei Wenxuan laughed, raised his hand in a salute, "Don't mind Su Shi Lang."
"I don't mind." Su Rongqing said, her voice a little hoarse, "I hope Mr. Pei, don't make fun of my wife."
"Su Shilang isn't married yet?" Pei Wenxuan raised his eyebrows, "Do you have a sweetheart by protecting this status now?"
"Yes or no," Su Rongqing stared at Pei Wenxuan, not giving in an inch, "It's not something Master Pei should joke about."
Pei Wenxuan smiled, turned his head, and reminded with a smile: "It seems that Su Shi Lang has never called me a concubine until now?"
Su Rongqing's body froze, the carriage was being led over, Pei Wenxuan watched the people coming, he naturally reached out to hold Li Rong's hand, reminding Su Rongqing: "The rank of the consort is still higher than that of me, the censor of supervision. It's just a habit of His Highness, Su Shilang comes from a famous family, and no matter how much he follows the rules, don't make such a slip of the tongue again."
Having said that, Pei Wenxuan took an umbrella from someone else's hand, put his hand on Li Rong's shoulder, and said gently, "His Royal Highness, let's go."
Li Rong was hugged by him and moved forward. In a dark place that no one else could see, Li Rong quietly stabbed him in the waist with an elbow and whispered, "Have you eaten gunpowder?"
Pei Wenxuan smiled and didn't say anything. He just hugged Li Rong and walked forward. The two walked two steps. Su Rongqing suddenly spoke. His voice was trembling and he said dumbly, "Your Highness..."
Li Rong and Pei Wenxuan turned back together. Su Rongqing looked at Li Rong with all her eyes on her. He seemed to want to say something. There were countless joys and sorrows hidden in his eyes. Li Rong watched him quietly. "Su Shilang?"
Su Rongqing was brought back to her senses by Li Rong's voice. Li Rong watched his eyes calm down little by little. He took a deep breath and laughed: "The Chinese New Year is coming, the lower official wishes Your Highness a happy new year and all the best."
Su Rongqing obviously seldom said such simple words of blessing. Li Rong was a little surprised when he heard him say it, and then she laughed: "Then I also wish Shi Lang Su a happy new year and a bright future."
"Thank you, Your Highness." Su Rongqing laughed, Li Rong turned around, and got into the carriage with Pei Wenxuan.
After the two entered the carriage, they sat down to one side and the carriage moved. Li Rong inadvertently raised her eyes and saw a figure leaking out of the window the moment the curtain was lifted.
Wearing a white coat and carrying an umbrella, he walks in the wind and rain, the sky is high and the earth is wide, and he is alone.
Li Rong was stunned for a while, but Pei Wenxuan poured tea for herself, holding the tea cup, leaning against the wall of the carriage, and said sourly, "Don't look, everyone is gone."
"He doesn't seem to be riding in a carriage?"
Li Rong was a little strange. With the Su family's background, how could Su Rongqing go back
Pei Wenxuan fiddled with the tea with the teacup cover, and said slowly, "Go back to exercise, how healthy is it?"
"What you're saying is," Li Rong nodded and turned to look at Pei Wenxuan, "I wonder where Mr. Pei is drinking this bowl of vinegar today?"
Pei Wenxuan didn't say a word. He was blowing the tea leaves. Li Rong glanced at him lightly, and couldn't help but say, "Stop blowing, the tea leaves are flying."
"It's a pity," Pei Wenxuan raised his head, "Why didn't you fly His Highness's face and wash His Highness's eyes?"
"There are beauties who wash their eyes," Li Rong laughed. "You don't need Master Pei's tea."
"Li Rong," Pei Wenxuan put the teacup on the table, put his hand on the table, leaned forward, and smiled, "You really know how to poke your heart."
"I don't have the habit of being used to people." Li Rong also put her hand on the table and greeted Pei Wenxuan, "After so many years, Mr. Pei, the concubine, still hasn't learned it well."
"His Royal Highness?" Pei Wenxuan raised his eyebrows, and Li Rong raised his chin, "You realize it yourself."
"His Royal Highness points to a bright road?"
Li Rong nodded and lowered her voice, as if she was talking about an extremely confidential matter: "Since you are sincere in asking for advice, I will tell you your only advantage. You have to study it carefully."
"Your Highness, please speak." Pei Wenxuan cooperated with her, lowered his voice, and listened intently. Li Rong dipped her finger in water from Pei Wenxuan's teacup, wrote a word on the table, and said as she wrote, "This is a secret, the concubine must not spread it out, concubine please read."
After speaking, the words were finished. Pei Wenxuan turned his head and saw that the word "face" was written upright.
Pei Wenxuan was silent, and Li Rong raised her hand and patted Pei Wenxuan on the shoulder: "The concubine has this advantage, and it must be used well."
"How to play?" Pei Wenxuan raised his head and sneered, "I'll give you the thirteenth dance?"
Li Rong didn't expect Pei Wenxuan to say such a thing. She thought about it for a while, then leaned forward and whispered, "When? Where? I will definitely come."
"Fuck you." Pei Wenxuan pushed Li Rong, "Girl's family, no restraint."
Li Rong laughed, fell in the direction of Pei Wenxuan, put her hand on Pei Wenxuan's shoulder, and said softly, "Pei Wenxuan, did you forget, I'm fifty years old."
"Don't talk like that," Pei Wenxuan sat upright, pulled Li Rong away, and said solemnly, "Like a monster, infiltrating people."
"As soon as you said that, I found out," Li Rong pondered, "You really look like a little Taoist priest now," Li Rong said, and threw a wink, "It's likable."
Pei Wenxuan's face was still, as if thinking about something, Li Rong sat up straight, poured tea for herself from the table, and whispered: "But seriously, what did you tell Su Rongqing about the past life? I don't remember, what's the use of what you said?"
"Just say it casually." Pei Wenxuan smiled, "Your Highness doesn't need to be too concerned."
"Speaking of which," Pei Wenxuan suddenly remembered, "How is Your Highness going to spend the new year? Is Your Highness going to enter the palace?"
"They're all married, what are you going to do when you go back?"
Li Rong shook her head: "Just spend it at the Princess Mansion, you arrange."
Pei Wenxuan nodded and began to think of the Spring Festival.
The two went home together. From the second day, they began to rest according to the regulations of the DPRK and China. Li Rong slept until he woke up naturally every day, and Pei Wenxuan was like a normal day. After getting up, he led people to clean the courtyard and directed People hang lanterns, paste Spring Festival couplets, arrange the placement of objects in the house, and personally choose incense.
From the big cloth to the placement of a vase, he had to do it all by himself. When Li Rong woke up on New Year's Day, he found that the Princess Mansion and the previous life seemed to be similar.
Li Rong was walking in the courtyard, and Pei Wenxuan went to dinner with her. Li Rong looked at the rockery in the courtyard and couldn't help but say, "You loved this tune before, but you still love it now."
"It's not that I love this tune," Pei Wenxuan laughed. "It's just that I always felt that it was a pity to be separated like that back then, and I always wanted to pretend that nothing happened."
"and then?"
Li Rong turned her head: "It never happened, what are you going to do?"
"Then my Highness and I have been a newly married couple, doing housework together and celebrating the New Year."
Li Rong raised her eyebrows: "Doing housework? You dare to let me do housework?"
"I'll do it." Pei Wenxuan said quickly, "You watch."
Li Rong listened and laughed: "Then I'll watch."
Pei Wenxuan did what he said. He led Li Rong to the dining room. Li Rong sat down and smiled when she saw the peach blossom soup.
This peach blossom soup looks good, but the details are not delicate enough. At first glance, it is not made by her cook. She pretended not to know anything and sat down to eat the peach blossom soup. Pei Wenxuan pretended to have no intention of saying, "What do you think of the peach blossom soup, Your Highness?"
"Well," Li Rong said calmly, "it's a little worse than the previous craftsmanship."
Pei Wenxuan didn't look good anymore, Li Rong continued; "However, I still like it," Li Rong said, looking up at Pei Wenxuan, and pointedly, "I can finish it all."
Pei Wenxuan seemed to be happy when he heard this. He picked up his chopsticks and said to Li Rong, "Wait a while, I will paste the Spring Festival couplets and blessing characters together with His Royal Highness, and then I will go to clean up."
"You're looking for something to do."
Li Rong thought he was boring, but after eating, she still went with him to post blessing characters and Spring Festival couplets.
At the beginning of the period, Pei Wenxuan was posting, and she was directing from behind. Pei Wenxuan did not post correctly for a long time. Li Rong was a little annoyed and scolded: "Why are you so stupid!"
After saying that, she walked up, took Henglian from Pei Wenxuan's hand, and wanted to stick it on the door, and ordered, "It will be posted here."
Pei Wenxuan smiled and didn't say a word. He only watched Li Rong stepping up on his feet. Seeing that she was trying to be cute enough to go up, Pei Wenxuan took the banner from behind her, pressed it directly on the wall and spread it out, looking down at Huai. Li Rong from inside: "Your Highness, is this here?"
When he raised his hand behind her, Li Rong felt as if her whole body was surrounded by him. His breath was overwhelming. Li Rong didn't know what to do, but suddenly her ears warmed and she whispered: "Um."
Pei Wenxuan pursed his lips and smiled lightly. He asked people to bring the paste and paste the Henglian. The surrounding people looked at Henglian with different expressions. After retreating with Pei Wenxuan, it turned out to be crooked.
The two watched silently for a moment, and Li Rong frowned: "I really want to stick it crookedly."
"No," Pei Wenxuan said immediately, "The horizontal link posted by His Highness will not be crooked."
"But I think..."
"It won't be crooked," Pei Wenxuan turned his head sideways. "It's human eyes that are crooked, not His Highness's Henglian. You see, I see it this way, it's right."
"Pei Wenxuan, you really know how to kill me."
Li Rong glared at him, Pei Wenxuan laughed, grabbed her shoulders, pushed her and said, "The stickers are all done, let's do the next thing, go."
Having said that, Pei Wenxuan pushed Li Rong into the room, and Li Rong followed him, but he actually took her to the kitchen.
The kitchen seemed to have all the tools ready, and everyone was standing by. Li Rong raised her eyebrows and turned her head: "What are you doing?"
"Make dumplings," Pei Wenxuan laughed, "I will bring His Highness to make dumplings."
"You still make dumplings?" Li Rong was a little curious, "A gentleman is far away from the kitchen, has the Pei family been so poor before?"
"Not really," Pei Wenxuan said, smiling and walking to the table. Li Rong watched him take an apron from the side and tied it up, then skillfully sprinkled flour on the table and started mixing the noodles. : "This is my father and mother's hobby. My father thinks it is New Year's Eve if he makes dumplings himself. Sit down, Your Highness."
Pei Wenxuan smiled and raised his head: "His Royal Highness just look at me."
The chair was already ready, but Li Rong felt it was novel, so she sat on the chair and propped her chin up to watch Pei Wenxuan perform.
Pei Wenxuan makes dumplings, kneads noodles and chops meat fillings... He moves smoothly and smoothly in one go. He himself is good-looking and elegant. Even if he wraps a dumpling, he is as beautiful as a well-prepared solo dance.
Li Rong supported her chin and admired it. After watching it for a while, she also felt bored, so she straightened up, asked for an apron from the servant, and went to Pei Wenxuan's side: "Let me help you?"
Pei Wenxuan raised his eyes and smiled: "Your Highness also wants to make dumplings?"
"Idle is idle."
Seeing Li Rong's interest, Pei Wenxuan took the dumpling wrapper and taught Li Rong how to wrap it.
Li Rong usually looks smart, but her hands are extremely clumsy. After a few bags, they are far less beautiful than Pei Wenxuan. They have strange shapes and look very funny.
Li Rong looked at Pei Wenxuan's dumplings, which were full and beautiful, and looked at her own dumplings, a group of trashy snacks.
Li Rong felt that she couldn't hold back her face, and became angry for a while. Pei Wenxuan glanced at Li Rong and patiently taught her over and over again. Li Rong still couldn't handle it well, and Pei Wenxuan wanted to talk. Do you teach?!"
Pei Wenxuan stopped talking. Fortunately, there was no one around, only the two of them, and Li Rong still had some steps.
Li Rong couldn't make it herself, and she didn't let Pei Wenxuan announce the package, so she wasted the flour there alone. Pei Wenxuan could only accept his fate and mix the noodles and minced meat for her.
Seeing that it was nighttime and the sedan chair hadn't come out yet, Li Rong stared at the dumplings angrily, and Pei Wenxuan couldn't bear it anymore. He walked behind Li Rong, raised his hand to hold Li Rong's hand, and said in a low voice: "Your Highness, in this way, hold your hand here."
Pei Wenxuan's breath was sprayed in her ears, his voice was gentle and kind, without the slightest impatience, Li Rong was originally annoyed, but the moment she saw the dumplings in her hand suddenly become beautiful, she suddenly felt happy again.
Pei Wenxuan held her hand and told her over and over the process of making dumplings, the key points.
After repeating it dozens of times, Li Rong finally spoke. Pei Wenxuan let go of his hands, stood beside her, and made dumplings with her. Li Rong was so fascinated by the bag that she raised her hand and wiped her face, and her face was stained. After Bai Hui, Pei Wenxuan looked back and saw it. He thought it was funny, but he didn't dare to say it, for fear of disturbing her making dumplings.
After making hundreds of dumplings, Li Rong's dumplings finally looked good. Li Rong was happy and turned to Pei Wenxuan and said, "Pei Wenxuan, look, these dumplings look good! This is my first time making dumplings, isn't it? Especially successful?!"
Pei Wenxuan saw that her face was stained with powder, holding a dumpling like a treasure in her hand, and couldn't help laughing.
"Good-looking." His voice was gentle, "His Royal Highness is better-looking."
Li Rong was stunned for a moment, that is, at that moment, fireworks started outside and suddenly resounded through Huajing. Both Li Rong and Pei Wenxuan couldn't help but raised their heads and looked at the blooming fireworks. Li Rong held the dumplings in her hand and looked back inadvertently. He glanced at the young man beside him who looked up at the fireworks in the sky.
"Pei Wenxuan."
She called out suddenly.
Pei Wenxuan turned around when he heard the sound, and at that moment, he saw the girl stood on tiptoe, raised his hand to hold his face, and kissed him gently.
The fireworks kept blooming in the night sky, bright and dark, and the wind inadvertently blew out the candle in the kitchen. Pei Wenxuan bent down slightly and looked at the girl with her eyes closed in the night.
"Pei Wenxuan, Happy New Year."
