When Li Rong heard Pei Wenxuan's words, she couldn't help but look up at him.
Pei Wenxuan was born with a scholarly face, but when he looked at her, his eyes seemed to have a natural smile.
Li Rong stared at him for a moment. Pei Wenxuan smiled and retreated, then took her to dinner.
That night was very lively. Li Rong had never experienced such an experience. The whole New Year was noisy and peaceful. She didn't have to worry about saying the wrong thing. It was as if she was far away from the palace and the imperial court.
Pei Wenxuan drank some wine. Now that he had a weak stomach, he didn't drink if he could. But when everyone was in the mood for the New Year, he drank a few cups with them.
After drinking, she didn't know if it was because he was happy or because of the wine, but he seemed to be very happy.
When he returned to the room with Li Rong, he pulled Li Rong and walked in front of her, humming a little song like a child. Li Rong found it funny. "What are you happy about?"
"I'm happy about two things."
Pei Wenxuan held her hand and walked in the corridor. Li Rong raised her chin. "What is it?"
"First, Your Highness took the initiative to kiss me today."
"You're that happy?" Li Rong raised her eyebrows. "If you're happy, I can take the initiative to sleep with you."
Pei Wenxuan smiled and shook his head. "Second," Pei Wenxuan stopped and pulled Li Rong's hand to his chest. "I made Your Highness happy."
"As long as you don't talk nonsense, I'll be happy."
Li Rong smiled and replied. Pei Wenxuan continued to shake his head. He thought for a moment, then raised his hand to hold Li Rong's head and pressed his forehead against hers. "Rongrong, you came out of the palace."
"I know."
Li Rong answered calmly. "I moved to the Princess Residence from the day I married you."
"In the future, I'll give you a home. It's different from the palace."
"Your Highness," he said very seriously. "I'll heal all the wounds in your heart. In the future, Your Highness will have a prince consort, and Li Rong will have Pei Wenxuan."
Li Rong didn't say anything. She lowered her eyes. after a long time, she said in a low voice, "I know."
In the future, in the future, Li Rong will have Pei Wenxuan.
When Pei Wenxuan heard her say "I know", he laughed again. He turned around and pulled Li Rong back into the room.
When they returned, the two of them washed up and fell asleep.
Perhaps Pei Wenxuan was tired. Not long after he laid down, he fell asleep.
Li Rong looked at him in the dark. After a long time, she touched him carefully.
She first reached out and placed her hand on his chest. Seeing that he didn't wake up, she didn't know why, but she reached out and hugged him. Then she leaned on him.
She listened to his heartbeat and felt his breath. She smelled his usual scent. She felt peaceful and calm.
In an instant, she felt that she wasn't herself, but … … she didn't feel bad.
The two of them slept all the way until dawn. Pei Wenxuan woke up early because of the morning court session. When he opened his eyes, he saw Li Rong sleeping on his chest. He stopped in his tracks.
After a while, he smiled and raised one hand to rest on the back of his head. He used the other hand to gently brush Li Rong's hair, gently combing it.
Li Rong's hair was very soft and carried the scent of her body. The fragrance bag on her body was personally made by him, so this scent belonged only to him. When Pei Wenxuan thought of this, he looked down at Li Rong lying on his chest. He couldn't help but think of last night when Li Rong took the initiative to stand on tiptoe and kiss him.
When he kissed her last night, he wholeheartedly felt that it was like a pledge of love. Now that he woke up this morning, he was already sensitive. With a beauty in his arms, Pei Wenxuan's body felt a bit uncomfortable. His gaze couldn't help but fall on Li Rong's body. From her hair to her thick eyelashes, high nose, and plump lips.
He quietly looked at the person in front of him. His gaze couldn't help but deepen.
When Li Rong woke up, the sky was already bright. She vaguely heard voices outside. She blankly opened her eyes and saw Pei Wenxuan looking down at her with a smile. His clear voice greeted her: "Good morning, Your Highness."
His smile was gentle, but the way he looked at her was a bit strange. He clearly looked harmless and peaceful, but for some reason, she felt that there was an indescribable sense of aggression.
Li Rong looked at him and propped herself up. At this time, she discovered that half of her body was numb. Pei Wenxuan saw her discomfort and reached out to massage her arm.
His hand touched her arm. The man's hot and broad palm pinched her sore muscles. After a while, Li Rong felt a lot better. Then she felt that even though the action of pinching her arm was neat and tidy, she couldn't help but inadvertently feel a bit more caressing.
Li Rong couldn't help but feel a bit puzzled. She looked up at him.
Pei Wenxuan noticed her gaze and looked up with a smile: "What are you looking at, Your Highness?"
Pei Wenxuan's gaze didn't have any impurities. Li Rong felt a bit strange. Pei Wenxuan wasn't a Liu Xia Hui. The two of them slept like this for a night, and in the morning, he helped her massage her shoulder. Why didn't she have any reaction?
Li Rong had questions, so she looked for answers. She raised her hand to lift the quilt. Pei Wenxuan's eyes were sharp and his hands were fast. He pressed the quilt down and asked nervously: "What do you want to do, Your Highness?"
Li Rong looked down and said: "I'm a bit curious."
"What are you curious about, Your Highness?"
Pei Wenxuan heard her question and seemed to be even more nervous. His ears turned red. Li Rong looked at him and couldn't help but find it funny: "It's not your first marriage. Why are you so reserved?"
Li Rong leaned forward and said in a low voice: "You're not interested in me?"
"Why do you ask when you already know the answer?"
Pei Wenxuan smiled bitterly: "Get up. There's still a palace banquet today."
"Pei Wenxuan." Li Rong raised an eyebrow. "Actually." Li Rong raised his hand and tried to reach inside Pei Wenxuan's collar. "I don't care that much."
"It's because Your Highness doesn't care." Pei Wenxuan held Li Rong's hand and sighed: "That's why I care more."
"In my previous life, Your Highness and I were unwilling at the beginning." Pei Wenxuan pressed Li Rong's hand on the bed. He took his clothes from the bedside and put them on and buttoned them: "The two of us were forced to marry, and Your Highness agreed. Now, I hope that Your Highness and I will take this matter more seriously. We can't speed up the process just because we've experienced it before. "
"We'll take it as we should." Pei Wenxuan lifted the quilt and got up. He sat on the bed and put on his shoes: "Don't rush ahead."
When Li Rong heard him say this in such a serious manner, he didn't know why, but he felt more at ease and wanted to tease him.
If a man took the initiative to ask for this matter, Li Rong would feel a bit uneasy. Now that Pei Wenxuan refused in such a serious manner, he was interested.
Pei Wenxuan was about to get up when she suddenly threw herself on Pei Wenxuan's back and wrapped her arms around his neck. Pei Wenxuan's body stiffened. Li Rong said coquettishly: "Brother Pei ~"
Li Rong called out to him. He leaned forward and pressed his entire weight on Pei Wenxuan's body. He whispered in his ear: "Even if you're a pawn, you still have to move forward. Brother Pei, don't you feel uncomfortable holding it in?"
"Then what does Your Highness mean?" Pei Wenxuan turned his head to look at her and raised his eyebrows. Li Rong blinked and leaned forward a bit. She leaned on Pei Wenxuan's shoulder and moved her hands.
Pei Wenxuan sucked in a breath of cold air.
"Lord Pei?"
Seeing him like this, Li Rong leaned on his shoulder and chuckled. "Sleep a little longer?"
Pei Wenxuan didn't say anything. He closed his eyes and couldn't help but raise his chin slightly. He said in a low and hoarse voice: "Your Highness's order, this humble subject doesn't dare to disobey."
Li Rong laughed out loud and rolled on the bed. He raised his hand and called out: "Come in."
Pei Wenxuan elegantly and calmly put down the curtain and returned to the bed.
Even though it was already daytime, the bed was still dim after the curtain was put down.
When Pei Wenxuan pulled her into his arms, he lowered his head to look at Li Rong, who was pursing her lips and smiling proudly. He pressed her head against his chest so that she wouldn't see his uncontrollable smile.
The two of them tossed and turned until noon, when they went to eat together. After lunch, Li Rong followed the rules of the palace and brought Pei Wenxuan to visit Shangguan Yue.
The palace would usually host a banquet on the first day of the first lunar month to entertain the married princesses and important officials. On New Year's Eve, there was a small banquet in the palace. On the first day of the first lunar month, there was a large banquet that gathered many members of the imperial family.
Li Rong hadn't visited Shangguan Yue in a long time, so he went to the palace in advance to talk with Shangguan Yue for a while.
When the two of them arrived at Weiyang Palace, they saw that Li Chuan had already arrived. He was sitting down and talking with Shangguan Yue. When Li Rong entered, Li Chuan became happy. He stood up and walked out of the hall and excitedly said: "Older Sister!"
"Don't make that expression of missing Li Chuan because you haven't seen him in a long time." Li Rong pushed away Li Chuan, who had opened his arms to hug her, and walked towards Shangguan Yue. He mocked Li Chuan as he said, "The imperial court is watching us every day. But me and Imperial Mother … "Li Rong turned to look at Shangguan Yue." We haven't seen each other in a long time. "
"Your Highness." Pei Wenxuan raised his hand and bowed respectfully towards Shangguan Yue.
Shangguan Yue nodded at Pei Wenxuan and gestured for him to sit down. Then, she looked at Li Rong and said: "I heard that you were busy these days, so I didn't want to disturb you. I heard about your affairs in the imperial harem. One after another, it made me nervous. However, I thought that you had your own plans, so I didn't ask any more questions. "
"Imperial Mother has lost weight." Li Rong looked at Shangguan Yue. After a while, he held Shangguan Yue's hand and said emotionally, "You're getting older, and we've also grown up. You don't have to work too hard. Take good care of your body. The one who lives longer is the biggest winner. "
"I don't have anything to worry about now." Shangguan Yue smiled bitterly. "You have your own ideas, and I don't want to have any disagreements with you. When it comes to the imperial court, someone has to give in. Now that you want to move forward, I'm also old. I can only give in. "
"Imperial Mother, are you blaming me?" Li Rong raised his eyebrows. Shangguan Yue hurriedly explained, "Don't accuse me wrongly. You're my daughter. How could I have such thoughts?"
"I'm just teasing you." Li Rong held Shangguan Yue's arm and leaned on Shangguan Yue's shoulder.
Shangguan Yue lowered her head and looked at her daughter leaning on her shoulder. Her heart softened: "I don't care about anything now. There's only one thing I'm worried about. Chuan'er. "Shangguan Yue turned to look at Li Chuan, who was sitting at the side." Even if you don't marry Yaya, there are so many ladies in this world. You can always find someone to be the crown prince consort, right? "
Pei Wenxuan and Li Rong looked at each other. Shangguan Yue looked at Li Chuan, who was forcing a smile and trying his best to explain: "Imperial Mother, it's not that I don't want to. It's just that it's hard to find someone suitable …"
"It's not that you can't find someone suitable. You're just afraid of getting married." Shangguan Yue interrupted him and then began to nag: "Actually, you have to learn how to make do with marriage. Look at your sister and the prince consort. They were also bestowed a marriage, and now they're inseparable. What's wrong with that?"
Li Rong heard this praise and couldn't help but turn his head and cough lightly.
Li Chuan felt wronged and said in a low voice: "I'm still young. Let's talk about this later."
"Talk about it later? When do you want to talk about it? "
"Imperial Mother, I've thought about it." Li Chuan's face was full of seriousness. "How can I talk about marriage when the world is unfair? As the crown prince … "
"You just don't want to get married, and you're talking nonsense about the world with me!"
Shangguan Yue interrupted him: "I don't care if you get married or not, but you're not married now. As long as you don't get married, there will be a lot of people watching you. Consort Rou's niece is still wandering around the palace and bumping into you at the entrance of the Eastern Palace every day. Who doesn't know what she's thinking? If you can get rid of her, you can get married whenever you want. "
As Shangguan Yue spoke, she sat down and scolded in a low voice: "You don't have any ability, yet you want to talk about love and love. You're so selfish!"
Li Chuan felt a little uncomfortable being scolded and kept his head down. Pei Wenxuan sensed that the atmosphere was not right, so he coughed lightly and suddenly asked Shangguan Yue: "Your Highness, this official recently discovered that His Highness's leg bones tend to hurt when it's cold. Does Your Highness know why?"
Shangguan Yue was immediately attracted by her daughter's health when she heard that her daughter's health was not good. Once she started talking to Pei Wenxuan, she couldn't stop. Pei Wenxuan took the initiative to change the topic, and the four of them continued to talk about health. When it was almost time, Li Rong and Pei Wenxuan had to leave to prepare for the palace banquet.
The two of them bid farewell to Empress Li Chuan. After they left, Li Rong sighed. Pei Wenxuan looked over: "Your Highness, why did you sigh?"
"Imperial Mother is right about Chuan'er's marriage. We can't keep delaying it."
Li Rong was a little worried: "According to Chuan'er's temperament, I'll persuade him and suppress him a little. Then, the Crown Princess will choose whoever she wants."
"But now, His Highness won't do that." Pei Wenxuan's voice was calm. He raised his hand and held Li Rong's hand: "His Highness hopes that His Highness the Crown Prince can continue to live well."
Li Rong and Pei Wenxuan walked hand in hand along the corridor. After hearing his words, she didn't say anything for a long time. Pei Wenxuan saw that she was deep in thought, so he thought about it and said: "Actually, I have an idea."
"En?"
Li Rong looked up at him. Pei Wenxuan was about to answer when they heard a laugh not far away: "Isn't this Sister Ping L E? You went to the palace today?"
