Chapter 8：

"I'm not worthy to be a princess, are you worthy?"

As soon as this clear and happy voice sounded, the scene of chattering and laughing suddenly calmed down.

The girls turned their heads bluntly, and their smiles became even harder when they saw the figure in the goose yellow dress.

Especially the Tao Siniang who said that Tao Ti only rationed the crown prince to carry shoes, her white face was blue with fright, neither sitting nor standing, she looked at a loss.

Tao Ti was embarrassed for her when she was caught by the master while talking gossip behind her back.

After calming down for a while, Tao Ti strode forward, with a kind smile on her face, "I didn't expect the sisters to be so elegant, too, this good day of spring harmony is the best time for chatting."

Tao Siniang chuckled, "Wuniang, didn't you speak with the aunt? Why did you come out so soon?"

Tao Ti's bright eyes narrowed slightly, and his throat said, "Perhaps it was because I sensed the sisters' memory of me, so I suddenly wanted to come out and walk."

She deliberately bit the word "remember" very hard, and the hearts of the people present were a little guilty.

Tao Siniang is no exception. The smile on the corners of her lips freezes, but her heart is strange. Tao Ti has always been a soft persimmon that anyone can handle. Even the concubines in the big room can't look down on her soft cowardice in private. temper! Why should I be afraid of her?

Thinking of this, Tao Siniang straightened her back, took out what she had done in the past, and said in a loud voice, "Wuniang, sisters, those words just now are just for fun, don’t get me wrong, lest you hurt It’s the kindness of our sisters."

"Friendly?" Tao Ti smiled lightly, but his tone was unconcealed sarcasm, "Si Niang, you always have this kind of general knowledge. You used to be, and you are now."

"You, what do you mean?!"

"It means, what can you do, you won't be the first one to shake the pot." Tao Ti said lightly, "Obviously you were chewing your tongue behind and you were hit by me. Now I'll give it a backlash so that I don't hurt my peace."

There are especially many wrongs in the deep house compound. The original owner Kong has the name of a grand daughter, but her personality is soft and deceptive. He has suffered a lot from these sisters and sisters in the past. Especially this cousin Tao Siniang, who has made countless stumblings to the original envoy over and under the covers.

The original owner was dumb and didn't tear his face with them, but Tao Ti was not angry-everyone is the first time to be a human being, why should I let you stom on my face?

Seeing that the atmosphere became anxious and tense, someone immediately came out to make a round.

"Okay, Siniang said something wrong, but this is Wuniang. You are going back to your natal family for the first time. This is a good day. Don't lose your interest because of two sentences."

"That's right, it's all my sisters joking, Wu Niang, if you want to be more serious, then you won't have any energy."

Said it was a rounding off, but Tao Ti took a step back.

This Tao Siniang immediately hit the snake with the stick, took the veil and pressed the corner of his eye, wiped the tears that did not exist, and said aggrieved, "Wuniang, you are now the crown prince and the prestige, as soon as you come back Putting on airs to my sisters. Now it's just a few small words, are you so caressing about it..."

She pretended to cry, and someone next to her came forward to comfort her.

For a while, it seemed like Tao Ti was bullying others.

Facing those complaining gazes, Tao Ti couldn't help applauding Tao Siniang. Wonderful, it's a good move to retreat!

Since they all felt that she was deceiving others, then she simply sat on the ground.

It's powerful, why doesn't she fight?

Tao Ti stood up straight, her red lips raised slightly, and if she didn't speak, she looked dignified and gentle. But as soon as he spoke, the aura of the whole body changed, "I am the prince of the Celestial family who is married to the East Palace. Your majesty and the empress did not say whether I am worthy or not. When is it your turn to say? Or, you Think you have a better vision than your majesty?"

Tao Siniang was also a boudoir girl. She usually only played with her heart in the inner house. Seeing Tao Ti moved out of the empress, her face changed immediately and her eyes flickered, "I, I didn't mean that..."

Tao Ti refused to give up, "Then what do you mean?"

Tao Siniang panicked, and he couldn't speak.

"You can eat rice, but you can't talk nonsense." Tao Ti approached her, tilted her head, and looked at her with a smile, "Do you think I am the Tao Ti who can insult at will?"

Don't say Tao Siniang, even the other girls curled their necks subconsciously, feeling chilly behind their backs.

Tao Siniang laughed more ugly than crying, and her voice was like a duck pinched her neck, "Wu Niang, oh no, princess, I was wrong, it was my eloquent words. I would like to ask you to have a lot of it. Don’t worry about it. …"

"This apology is good."

Tao Ti slightly raised her eyebrows, and suddenly raised her hand to pat Tao Siniang’s face, but her gaze swept across everyone present, “I know what you’re thinking in your heart. It’s not your thoughts. But before you speak, it’s best to weigh your identities and see if you are qualified enough."

Her fingers were a little cold, and she patted her face. Tao Si Niang only felt that the coolness spread from her cheeks all over her body, making her stiff and not daring to move.

Tao Ti retracted her hand and stepped aside. While slowly playing with the jade bracelet on her wrist, she smiled and said, "If you guys are telling things like today, let me know. One of them counts. Don't blame me for not being affectionate. "

Seeing the fearless indifference between her eyebrows and eyes, everyone's heart shuddered, and their eyes fell.

Tao Ti dusted his dress with satisfaction, and planned to run after he was forced to put it on. How could he have thought that as soon as he turned around, he saw a slender, moon-white figure slowly walking out of the rockery.

Tao Ti was stunned, "!!!"

Why is Little Angel Bae Yeon here? When did he come? So did he see the whole process of pretending just now?

In a daze, she seemed to hear something...

Oh, it was her well-behaved and gentle person who collapsed.

Tao Ti tried his best to manage her expression, her slender eyelashes trembled slightly, and a smile appeared, "Hall, Your Highness, what a coincidence..."

Pei Yan walked to her step by step, nodding like a breeze, "Yeah."

Tao Ti didn't dare to look at him for a while, there was a mess in his little head, thinking about how to explain to him.

The scene where the fox was pretending to be bullying and bullying was really not what she meant!

Suddenly, a hand was placed on her shoulder, before she could react, she gently leaned into a clear and pleasant embrace.

Then Pei Yan's calm and steady voice sounded over her head, "What the princess said, I feel very right."

Tao Ti, "...!"

The girls in the four rooms are all startled.

Pei Yan continued, "As the Hou Mansion girls, you should be knowledgeable, open-minded and gentle. How can you learn to be a woman with a long tongue? Besides, when the prince married into the East Palace, she is a member of the royal family. What crime should you be guilty of arguing about the royal family? If it’s not clear, Gu can ask Yong Weihou to explain it to you."

As soon as these words came out, the girls' complexions changed suddenly, their heads hung down in shame, and they responded in a low voice, "His Royal Highness said, please forgive your sins."

If Tao Tihu's fake tiger's prestige was still a little frustrating at first, then the real tiger came forward to support her, and her little fox's heart was upset!

Pei Yan looked down slightly, and saw her smirk little look, which was inexplicably funny.

"Shall we go?" he said.

"Hmm." Tao Ti became obedient in a second.

Pei Yan put his arms around her shoulders and left the back garden affectionately.

After they walked away, the girls raised their heads. The pretty and delicate little faces were red and white. They were unwilling, depressed, and resentful, but they were more ashamed of shame!

They were compared by the prince to women with long tongues! If this spreads out, there will be no face to see people!

I don’t know who started it first. You said a word to me. Finally, everyone pointed their heads to Tao Siniang, "It’s all about you who are worthy of mentioning. This has annoyed the princess and offended the prince. , Even taking us to be ashamed of you!"

"Yes, I blame you, you talked to her well! If the prince really talked to her about this, we would be miserable..."

In the face of the accusations from everyone, Tao Siniang really had tears in her eyes. She stared back angrily, "Did you guys say bad things about her just now? Now, what face is there to accuse me!"

But she couldn't stand so many mouths alone, and finally ran away amidst complaints.

That figure was very much like Tao Ti's appearance when she was ridiculed and teased and left before.

—

On the other end, after walking a certain distance, Pei Yan let go of Tao Ti's shoulders.

Thinking of him just now, Tao Ti raised his head, curled his eyebrows, curled the corners of his lips, and looked at him gratefully, "His Royal Highness, thank you for helping me just now."

Pei Yanqian smiled, "You don't have to be so polite, Gu said that he will protect you outside."

In the midday sun, the mottled light and shadow sprinkled on his fair and handsome face. This beautiful pictorial scene made Tao Ti's heart beat faster.

Obviously you can kill with your face, but it is so gentle, who can stand it!

She quickly stopped looking away, cut off the messy thoughts in her mind, looked at the gravel road in front of her without squinting, and asked in a low voice, "His Royal Highness, aren't you in the front hall? How come you come here?"

"We talked about the same in the front hall, and when we saw it was about to lunch, we thought of looking for you. In fact, in the front section of the veranda, I saw you alone, but you seemed to be thinking about something, so I didn’t see I. , Gu came to this back garden with you."

Tao Ti was stunned, so they said that they just worked their front and back feet.

"Then what I said to them, did you hear everything?"

"Well, almost."

"..."

Oh, the setting is broken.

Tao Ti was like a discouraged ball, drooping his little head, stopped, trying to explain, "Actually, I'm not so fierce or quarrelsome... I really don't like to make trouble today. This is a special situation..."

Pei Yan also stopped, looking at her little furry head, an inexplicable urge to reach out and rub it.

He put his hands behind him, pursed his lips, and said softly, "I know that they are the first to speak, you are not wrong."

Hearing this, Tao Ti raised his eyes to look at him, with a pair of black grape-like eyes gleaming, and asked tentatively, "His Royal Highness, do you really think so?"

Seeing her a little silly little appearance, Pei Yan chuckled, "Yes."

His affirmative answer made Tao Ti's worries disappear all at once. She curled up a pair of smiling eyes, sweet and sincere, "I know your Royal Highness you are the most discerning right from wrong."

Hearing her straightforward compliment, Pei Yan raised his eyebrows. After a while, he glanced at the bright sun and said softly, "We should go to the dining room. It is estimated that the father-in-law and mother-in-law are waiting."

"Okay, I'm hungry after tossing all morning."

Tao Ti nodded and followed him to the dining room.

—

This meal is not good.

The dishes are undoubtedly very rich, but there are a group of relatives who are not familiar with but want to talk awkwardly on the round table, Tao Ti dare not eat more, for fear that he will lose his etiquette if he is not careful.

Pei Yan didn't have much appetite, and today he only used a few.

Sometimes Tao Ti wondered if he was a **** who survived by drinking dew, otherwise, a big man with a height of 1.85 meters could survive by eating so little every day?

After lunch, sitting and drinking a cup of tea, Pei Yan took Tao Ti to leave.

When I came, a carriage was full of various gifts, and when I returned, the carriage was not available. The return of Yongweihoufu was even more generous.

As soon as he got on the carriage, Tao Ti couldn't help but relax.

When Pei Yan leaned in, he happened to see her rubbing her cheeks with two small hands. Her cheeks are round and round and there are some baby fat, white and tender with natural and healthy powder, like a plump and sweet peach in early summer.

Tao Ti didn't know when she started to feel an inexplicable trust in Pei Yansheng. When in front of him, she doesn't need to be tensed, she can show her natural side.

Seeing him looking at herself, she gave a wry smile and explained, "The smile is stiff."

Pei Yanshi Shiran sat down and asked, "You don't like the excitement?"

"It's not that I don't like the excitement, it's just that I don't like this kind of excitement... I am still very happy to play with my familiar friends." Tao Ti replied solemnly.

Pei Yan moved the censer ash on the small table elegantly and said softly, "If you are bored in the palace, you can also invite friends to play."

Tao Ti pursed her lips for a moment. Most of the friends of the original owner are plastic sisters, but there is a chubby girl named Xu Wenchan who seems to be playing well?

After thinking, the carriage moved slowly.

Tao Ti asked Pei Yan, "His Royal Highness, were you full just now?"

Pei Yan asked with a smile, "Aren't you full?"

Tao Ti was startled and a little embarrassed, but he nodded honestly, and said in a low voice, "There are so many people on the table, I can't open up and eat. But I don't think you have eaten much, it's better to..."

She paused, observing Pei Yan's expression, and asked, "Shall we eat out?"

When she came along, she found that there were many restaurants and restaurants on the street, and the heart of a foodie was already ready to move. There are many food bloggers in modern times who specialize in ancient food, and now they have personally traveled to ancient times. If you don't taste the taste of ancient restaurants, it is really a trip for nothing.

Pei Yan did not immediately refuse or agree, but opened the curtain and looked out to check the weather, "It seems that it is about to rain."

Tao Ti moved towards him and craned his neck to look, only to see the darkness in the distance and the faint rain.

"Ah, it was fine at the beginning, how come it became cloudy all at once." She muttered disappointedly.

This posture made the two of them very close. Pei Yan could smell the faint fragrance of her body, and could also see the soft and fine hairs on her snow-white skin.

His eyelashes drooped slightly, covering the dark color in his eyes. After a moment of silence, he suddenly said something awkwardly, "Let's make another day."

After speaking, there was a strange feeling in his heart. It was obvious that he could choose to be silent just now. After all, going to a restaurant to eat together is not a necessary behavior.

He and her only need to maintain a superficial harmony, and they are not really married.

Tao Ti sat up straight and looked at Pei Yan with a pair of beautiful eyes, and confirmed, "Your Highness, will you take me out another day?"

Those black eyes are like stars in the night sky, shining with a clear light, that is the desire of foodies for food.

Pei Yan met her expectant gaze, her voice was slow and gentle, "Well, let's go out another day, there are indeed a few restaurants in the city that taste good."

Tao Ti showed a big smile, "Thank you, Your Highness!"

This smile was too brilliant, bright and beautiful, so that a flash of surprise flashed in Pei Yan's eyes.

There are not many women who admire him, but she is the first to smile at him in this way.

He squeezed his fingers calmly, his thin lips pressed straight.
