Chapter 54：

The moonlight was dim, and Pei Yan disappeared after Tao Ti came out of the shower.

Linglong greeted him at the right time, and respectfully explained, "Prince Concubine, your Royal Highness still has government affairs to deal with in the Tongming Hall. He asks the Concubine to rest first, without waiting for him."

"Oh, okay."

Tao Ti turned his head, glanced at the dark sky outside the window, and muttered, "This is all the time, but I have to be busy, well... it's not easy to be a prince."

Linglong didn't catch up, and helped her go to bed to rest.

…

At the same time, Tongming Hall, inside the study.

Pei Yan wore a loose white robe, sitting upright, like a strong bamboo board. Sitting opposite to him, Gu Feng was dressed in neat black clothes and placed a long sword by the table.

The fragrance of tea curled up, and a game of chess in front of the two, black and white.

Gu Feng dropped a black chess piece, and his voice was as low as if it had been scorched by the wind and sand, "His Royal Highness, you only said to give Princess Mu a lesson before, and you didn't mention that you wanted to make things so big."

Pei Yan laughed lowly, "This time it's a lonely omission. I didn't expect the crown prince to be so courageous. On other people's territory, I dare to go with them."

He usually thinks that Tao Ti is greedy and playful, kind-hearted, but also timid. For example, before, she dared to beat Pei Changzhou, but she would have nightmares in the night.

He had arranged for Wang Shizi to come out like this before, because he wanted to hold Princess Mu so that she had no time to implement the plan of painting a boat;

Secondly, it is also a lesson to Princess Mu. She wants to destroy the innocence, then he will use her own way to treat her body, and abolish the "object" of her beloved son to destroy the innocence.

Seeing that Pei Yan could still laugh, Gu Feng frowned, and said gravely, "The crown prince is brave and inexperienced. Your Royal Highness is still used to her... The news that you inquired about today, Princess Mu secretly planned, planned to you, or right Your crown princess starts. This is really annoying for her."

Pei Yan's eyebrows were lazy, and he said slowly, "If she really does it, wouldn't it be a good thing for us?"

Gu Feng was stunned, and suddenly realized something, his face changed abruptly, "His Royal Highness, your original plan was enough to be risky. Now that you are crossing the pole of Princess Mu, wouldn't it be more risky!? No, it's too dangerous. NS…"

Pei Yan was silent, his slender fingers gently twisted a chess piece, gently put it down, and whispered, "Uncle Feng, it's your turn."

Gu Feng's mind is very confused now, where is he still in the mood to play chess, but seeing Pei Yan looking at him with a smile, he took a chess piece and dropped it randomly.

"His Royal Highness, in fact, we have the evidence of King Mu colluding with the mansion, selling illegal salt, and privately casting weapons. This is enough to let him lose his power. Why should you take such a big risk."

"not enough."

Pei Yan shook his head, Qing Jun's eyebrows and his eyes were fiercely cold, "I want to make King Mu completely lose his power, and there will be no chance of getting up again; besides, I have to pull the Changan people into the water together."

Gu Feng frowned, and looked at His Royal Highness in front of him with mixed tastes.

Since Queen Gu died and the small hall fell into the water, he was sent by the master to protect him and teach him.

The first time I saw the little majesty, he was only five years old, so small, beautiful and exquisite like a female doll, with a pale face looking at him who suddenly appeared, not afraid, only with a pair of dark eyes. Hold him.

After the two got acquainted, the little majesty said to him, "Uncle Feng, my illness can't be cured. If I recover, there will be someone who will harm me... I don't want to die."

The harem's private methods are endless, and pretending to be sick is the only way the five-year-old can think of.

Time flies, he grows up with the little majesty, watching him grow up from the little child who says "I don't want to die" with a firm gaze, and grows into a man with "a ravine in his chest, mountains and rivers in his eyes" in front of him.

In the silence, the wind blew in from the window, and the candlelight flickered.

Pei Yan dropped a word on the chessboard, and his cold white face evoked a relaxed smile, "Uncle Feng, you lost."

Gu Feng awakened from his past memories, and when he looked down, he saw that the white chess that Pei Yan had dropped just now, unexpectedly, captured his large black chess piece.

Pei Yan said, "A risky move, if used well, it has a miraculous effect."

Gu Feng understood the deep meaning of his words and arched his hands.

…

The Jixian Hall was peaceful and quiet, and the lights in the sleeping hall were turned off several times.

Seeing Pei Yan coming, Linglong, who was at the door, got up and saluted, "Your Highness."

Pei Yan looked at the dim light in his eyes and said in a low voice, "She is asleep?"

Linglong, "Yes, I fell asleep half an hour ago."

After a pause, she said again, "The princess told her to warm milk on the stove, so that the slave and maid told her to drink."

Pei Yan let out a "um", his heart was ironed.

After drinking that cup of warm and slightly sweet milk, bathing and washing, the night is getting deeper.

He walked to the bed and opened the veil curtain of willow-leaf yellow-embroidered hibiscus flowers, and saw the graceful and petite body, wrapped in a small cup, sleeping sideways inside.

He glanced, slowly retracted his gaze, and turned to turn off the light.

On the soft bed, Tao Ti's eyelashes trembled slightly, listening to the rustling movement by the bed, half-opened his eyes with sleepy eyes.

Is Bae Yeon back?

She was dazed and wanted to turn around to say hello to him, but didn't bother to move.

Until the man next to her lay down next to her, a strong arm hooked her waist very naturally and fished her into his arms.

Tao Ti, "...!"

He he he he he!

Her heart was beating wildly, but her eyes were closed and she did not dare to open them.

The man hugged her tightly, his head buried in her soft and sweet neck, his tall body relaxed, as if the exhaustion of being outside all day was released at this moment.

In the dark, people's other senses will become extremely sensitive, Tao Ti felt his warm nose sprinkle on her skin, numb, and extremely slightly shuddering.

She couldn't see how red her face was, but she could feel the hotness of her cheeks.

At this moment, many thoughts popped up in her head.

He hugged her a little too smoothly. Did he sleep with her like this every night?

Before that, she woke up several times and found her lying in his arms. It was not that she could not sleep well to entangle him, but he took the initiative to hug her?

And the intimate touch, hold hands, put shoulders, knock on the forehead...

He smiled warmly, his soft voice, his inexhaustible patience for her seemed inexhaustible.

Does Bae Yeon...like her?

As soon as this thought came out, Tao Ti was stunned, feeling as if something had exploded in his mind, and a little flustered, at a loss, the whole figure seemed to be floating on a cloud...

I don't know how long it took, she heard the man's even breathing ringing in her ears, and a chaotic heart gradually calmed down.

Probably the mood fluctuated too much. After calming down, the feeling of sleepiness surged up like a tide.

She was tired of thinking, and fell asleep unconsciously.

Feeling the steady breath of the person in his arms, Pei Yan, who should have been asleep long ago, gently opened his eyes.

In the dark night, those dark and deep eyes were clear, and there was no sleepiness.

He stretched out his hand and stroked the blue silk on Tao Ti's ear with his well-knotted fingers, and his cool lips kissed her soft earlobe.

"Little girl, don't avoid the lonely love, the lonely will be sad."
