The next day, Jixiandian.

After waking up, Tao Ti was in a daze.

A dark blue silk was draped obediently, she hugged the pillow, her eyes were empty, her face was blank.

He held her last night, is it true? It shouldn't be her dreaming.

The elegant and indifferent scent of cold pine on his body, and his strong arm muscles, his arms are warm, not as cold as his fingertips, and his strong heartbeat, dong dong dong... these She remembered it clearly.

This is definitely not her dream!

For the dream to be so realistic, she will eat the pillow now.

So, a man hugs a woman, should this be like?

However, Pei Yan seems to be so gentle and kind to everyone. Yes, he does have some intimate actions with her, but is it because the two are close friends, so they compare Feel free?

Or maybe he has been living in the same bed for so long, and he has treated her as a human pillow? Or, brother to sister?

Tao Ti, who is single until now, hugged the pillow in his arms tightly, resting his cheek in one hand, and fell into deep thought.

Alas, it would be fine if Qiongqi or A Chan was by her side at this time. At any rate, I could help her analyze and what to do next.

"Ah ah ah ah ah, so annoying—"

Tao Ti's small face wrinkled into a small bun, and she was rolling back and forth on the big bed with her pillow in her arms.

Linglong, who was guarding outside, heard this voice, thinking what was wrong with her princess, and hurriedly came in to check, and saw the princess lying on the bed crookedly, her white skin tinged with pale pink.

"Prince princess, are you...what's uncomfortable?"

"..."

Tao Ti lifted her head from the quilt, her jet-black water-ling eyes looked towards Linglong.

Do you want to ask Linglong? But Linglong was Pei Yan's person, and she didn't know if she would tell the truth when she asked.

But now she is really holding back so much that she wants to find someone to talk to and help her guide her.

After thinking about it, Tao Tilily rolled out of the bed, with a dull hair on his little head, "Linglong, let me ask you something, you tell me the truth!"

Linglong was startled, and nodded, "Say the princess."

Tao Ti bit her lip, took a deep breath and asked, "His Royal Highness...Does he like me?"

That's it?

Linglong blinked and said without hesitation, "I like it. Of course, His Royal Highness likes the princess. The servants have never seen His Royal Highness treat other women so well."

Tao Ti frowned, "There is no other woman beside him."

Linglong choked, which is true.

The prince has always been clean and self-conscious, without any romantic anecdotes, and when meeting with those noble ladies, he also abides by the etiquette and has never exceeded the rules.

Tao Ti held his face and sighed lowly.

Linglong wondered, "Why does the princess ask this suddenly?"

Tao Ti shook her head and said "It's okay", but couldn't help thinking, if he really likes himself, why not tell her?

He doesn't say, does it mean that he doesn't like it that much? Or, he cared about his body, still remember the agreement between them?

Having said that, even if he said it, how should he respond?

Does she like Bae Yeon?

Tao Ti, who was caught in a lot of problems, couldn't help but sighed again. It was too difficult. The relationship was really too difficult!

………

During the day and night, Pei Yan was busy outside and did not come back to the palace for dinner.

Tao Ti breathed a sigh of relief, feeling that he had avoided the embarrassment of meeting, but after that, there was a burst of inexplicable loss in his heart.

In the evening, she washed and went to bed early, and when she woke up the next day, the bed was empty.

After holding back all morning, she couldn't help but asked Linglong, "Has the prince been here last night."

Linglong replied, "I came here late at night and left early in the morning. Your Royal Highness asked the servants not to disturb the Crown Prince's sleep."

Tao Ti pursed her lips and thought to herself: The hug the night before, he didn't really just use her as a pillow, right?

She lowered her head and squeezed her arm, then squeezed her leg...

It's soft and slippery, and it's really easy to pinch.

Tao Ti was lost in confusion and depression. She didn't know what it was like to "like someone" and "be liked by someone".

After thinking a lot, she wants to run to Pei Yan and ask directly, "Do you like me, that kind of love between men and women?"

But if it's one's own passion, wouldn't it be embarrassing? And Qiongqi said that girls should be more reserved.

After thinking about it all morning, she didn't think of a reason, so she didn't even think about it anymore, got up and played a set of Baduanjin, and went to the dining room to eat.

At night, Pei Yan came back.

After two days and one night, Tao Ti was still a little nervous when we met again.

Compared to her uncomfortableness, Pei Yan was as calm as usual, as if the person who secretly hugged her that night was not him.

The two faced each other and each ate a bowl of yellow braised chicken rice.

A fat and tender three-yellow chicken, cut into small pieces, put the rock sugar into the oil, and fry the pieces of fresh chicken into a beautiful sugar color, then add wine, ginger, garlic cloves and other seasonings, and put in potato pieces , Shiitake mushroom slices, simmer for a quarter of an hour on a low fire, and then add green and red pepper to taste and color, then the sauce can be put away.

The stewed yellow stewed chicken is oily and full of fragrant sauce. The stewed chicken is tender and rotten, and it is very tasty. The shiitake mushrooms are full of the soup, and the fragrance is extremely delicious, and the soup blooms between the lips and teeth in one bite.

The most amazing thing is the potatoes in the yellow braised chicken. The potatoes are soft and rotten, and the taste is powdery and waxy, mixed with salty and sweet soup, mixed with crystal clear rice——

The rice fragrant is mixed with meat, fragrant and delicious. Tao Ti eats three bowls of rice and can't help but sigh: The yellow braised chicken is really a rice killer. This combination is really amazing!

After eating, she brewed two cups of white peach jasmine tea. The diced peaches were dried with the peaches bought before, and brewed with the dried jasmine flowers, and then added some good acacia nectar, gently stirred, and the fragrance was refreshing. Overflowing, sweet and greasy.

Pei Yan put down his chopsticks, took the kerchief and wiped the corner of his mouth, and smiled at Tao Ti warmly, "It's still delicious that Ati cooked. The delicacies of the mountains and seas I ate in the restaurant yesterday are not worth this simple bowl of stewed chicken with potatoes. "

Tao Ti, "...!"

He smiled at her again!

Under the long table, her hand gently twisted her thigh, the color is empty and color, calm, steady, don't panic!

"Well, you just have to eat." She replied in a low voice, pretending to casually picked up the white peach jasmine tea and drank it.

Pei Yan saw her expression clearly, but she was not anxious. Hunters who were too impatient would easily scare their prey away.

He whispered, "Ati, we should have left Luoyang on the 28th. Just these two days, you can start to pack the cages. If you have anything to add, hurry up and buy it."

Tao Ti tilted his head and thought, "Twenty-eight, that's the day after tomorrow."

Pei Yan "hmm" for a moment, and then said, "Tomorrow and night, Sun Fuyin arranged a farewell banquet. On the Luohe painting boat, the lonely might be back later..."

Tao Ti was startled and looked at him in surprise, "Your Highness, won't you take me there?"

She thought about the reception banquet and she was there. She should also attend this farewell banquet, right?

Pei Yan was taken aback for a moment, and looked at Tao Ti. Under the light and shadow, there was a little grievance between her bright eyebrows.

He lowered his eyes slightly, rubbed his brow bones with his slender fingers, and the phrase "No" that came to his lips turned a corner in his throat, and finally became, "You want to go?"

Tao Ti can't help but feel a little depressed when he sees his hesitation clearly.

Sure enough, he didn't want to take her at first? !

Reminiscent of him going out early and returning late in the past two days, not seeing anyone, and this farewell banquet, he did not bring himself to play—

Tao Ti came to a conclusion: He was deliberately avoiding her!

This cognition made her even more depressed, no wonder the Internet often said that men are big pig's hoofs, Pei Yan is good-looking, but...you can't hold her, just avoid her.

Pei Yan didn’t know anything about her rich brain circuits. Seeing her dull, she was unhappy only because she couldn’t go out to play, and said, "If you want to go, you can do it... Tomorrow wear more. The wind is very cold and dew on the painting boat, carefully catch the cold."

Tao Ti couldn't tell the mood at the moment, so he lightly nodded his little head, and went straight to the side hall clean room under the pretext of taking a bath.

Pei Yan perceives the little girl's strange emotions, his black eyes are narrowed, and his thin lips are slightly pursed.

After pondering for a moment, he called Linglong and asked.

Linglong reported on Tao Ti’s daily life truthfully. At the end, she hesitated for a while and said in a bit embarrassed manner, “The day before yesterday, the princess suddenly asked the slave and maid, do you like her...”

Pei Yan's eyebrows jumped, and the corners of his mouth straightened unconsciously, and asked, "What do you say."

Linglong, "Of course she said she likes it!"

Pei Yan, "...what's her reaction?"

Linglong thought about it for a while, and said, "The princess didn't say anything, she just sighed and sat on the bed with a frown on her face for a long time."

Pei Yan, "..."

sigh? frown?

Does she dislike his likes so much?

Linglong lowered her head quietly. She felt that both the prince and the princess were a little strange during this period, which made her a little bit unable to understand.

After a long period of silence, Pei Yan's expression was calm, and his voice was cold and cold, "Linglong, on the painting boat tomorrow, you need to follow the princess and stay with her, no matter when, take care of her, understand?"

Linglong was stunned for a moment. At any rate, it was the person who had been with Pei Yan for many years. He immediately understood the meaning of the words, and hurriedly purged his face, and said, "Slaves obey orders."

…………

The next day, after waking up in the afternoon, Tao Ti sat in front of the vanity mirror and began to dress up.

Today, she is wearing a lilac-colored ten-piece brocade flower twill, with a lotus-colored auspicious cloud pattern tube top, a silver-white gauze skirt, her long hair combed into a bun, and a few dignified and elegant hair accessories. A lilac flower budding after the rain, with a slender waist, clear and gentle.

In the warm dusk, a Baogai carriage stopped at the gate of Jixian Hall.

Tao Ti was about to get into the car, a cold white slender hand lifted the driving curtain, and then, only Pei Yan in a light cyan robe with a grape pattern leaning forward to come out.

Tao Ti realized something, her watery eyes widened and hurriedly said, "His Royal Highness, you just sit down. I can come up by myself without your support."

Pei Yan frowned slightly.

Seeing Tao Ti lifted the skirt with one hand, grabbed the carriage door with the other hand, strode up.

Although the action was a bit rude, it went up after all.

She was a little smug in her heart, holding the skirt with her hand and turned to lift the car curtain. Unexpectedly, as soon as she took a step, her foot stepped on the slightly longer skirt, and she accidentally planted her whole body forward——

"--what!"

"..."

Linglong outside the carriage suddenly heard the princess's exclamation and was startled, and hurriedly asked, "What's wrong with you, princess?"

From the carriage came the prince's harsh and hoarse voice, "It's okay, let's go."

Linglong was puzzled, but she didn't dare to ask more.

On the side, Fu Xirui seemed to understand something, she covered her lips with a chuckle, waved the whisk, and whispered, "Go!"

The carriage drove smoothly in the dimly yellow palace alleys.

Inside the carriage, the ambiguity was strong.

When I was chasing drama with my mother in the past, whenever I saw the heroine wrestling on the ground, her mouth was like a magnet, and she would definitely kiss the hero. Tao Ti would inevitably complain: Hey, dog-blood routines!

However, at this moment, she realized what it means: Art comes from life, but life far exceeds art——

She didn't kiss Pei Yan, but it was more embarrassing than kissing!

The carriage was wide, she planted her whole body directly on his chest, and then she slid down inertially...she slipped to her knees and sat on the carpet, and her face was facing between his legs.

The atmosphere seemed to freeze.

At that moment, Tao Ti's mind was all over: Ah, I'm dead, don't save it, dig a hole and bury it, and live without face.

Embarrassed, so embarrassed that she could grab a Luoyang Palace on her toes.

When people are extremely embarrassed, they will be extremely calm.

So when Pei extended her hand to pull her up, she was very cooperative and even subconsciously said "thank you".

Pei Yan, "...you're welcome."

Tao Ti sat down quietly, a little face stretched, and twisted out of the car window.

Pei Yan didn't speak either, just like that, the silence in the carriage continued until the carriage stopped by the Luohe wharf.

Before getting out of the car, Pei Yan gently summoned her, "Ati."

Tao Ti's back stiffened.

Please, please, don't mention that just now, otherwise she will really be ashamed to jump into Luohe.

She twisted her head bluntly, then pulled out a dry smile, "What's the matter?"

Pei Yan moved to her side, raising his hand to her little head.

Tao Ti hid subconsciously.

Pei Yan's hand paused in the air.

Those beautiful peach blossom eyes looked at her with radiance for a moment, lowered their eyes, and the long eyelashes cast a small shadow under his eyes, seeming to hide the alienated bleakness and loss.

"Your hair is a bit messy, Gu just wants to help you get it straight."

"This, this..."

When Tao Ti saw him like this, as if she had bullied him, she couldn't bear it for a while, and obediently moved her little head over, "Just take care of it then."

Looking at the little head that actively moved under his palm, the dimness of Pei Yan's eyes turned into a rich ink color, and his thin lips were aroused calmly.

He helped her tidy up her temples that had started to tangle, softly and delicately, as if she was treating a priceless treasure.

Not long after, his golden and cold voice sounded above his head, "Okay."

Tao Ti couldn't look in the mirror either. He reached out and touched it. He felt that there was no problem, and she had to get out of the car.

This time, Pei Yan took a step ahead of her, with a serious tone and a bit of parental majesty, "Ati, wait for you alone to help you."

Tao Ti knew that she was stupid just now, and now she has no confidence, and she turned her blushing little mouth, softly and softly, "Okay..."

Pei Yan got out of the car and reached out to her.

Although she intends to keep some distance with him and reduce the intimacy that is easy to misunderstand, she can't help her choose at this time.

The soft little hand was placed on his palm, and it was quickly wrapped tightly by his big, warm palm.

After getting out of the carriage, he didn't let go, he only led her to the pier with a natural expression.

The officials had been waiting at the dock a long time ago, when they saw the prince and the princess come hand in hand, they were busy and respectfully greeted each other.

After a few simple greetings, Pei Yan and Tao Ti Zhongxing were surrounded by the painting boat on the shore like a moon.

This painting boat is divided into upper and lower two floors, extremely gorgeous, beautifully lit, the water is swaying, and the restaurants on both sides of the Luo River are prosperous, with strings of lanterns hung, and the night breeze is gently blowing, sending a beautiful singing sound.

The seats on the lower floor were for ordinary officials. Pei Yan and Tao Ti sat in a spacious box on the second floor. The guests were accompanied by Prince Mu, Sun Fu Yin and his wife, and several other high-ranking officials and female families.

At first sight of Prince Mu, Tao Ti was still a little surprised: his son is already in jail, is he still in the mood to deal with it as a father? But on second thoughts, he is the shepherd of Luoyang, giving the prince a farewell banquet. If he does not come, he is neglecting the prince.

Man, no matter which level you reach, you have to have no choice, unless you sit in the supreme position, but... who can guarantee that when you are an emperor, you will be free from constraints and troubles?

Tao Ti was thinking about it in a random way, and listened to Prince Mu apologizing, "The princess sometimes feels cold and ill, so she failed to come. Please don't care about the prince and princess."

Pei Yanlue nodded, as if he didn't know the inside story, and gave a gentle greeting.

Everyone smiled and took their seats happily.

The sound of piano, drums, silk and bamboo is sluggish, and the wine is hot. With the appearance of dancers, the atmosphere of the banquet becomes more lively and lively.

After a dance, Pei Yan picked up the wine glass, with a three-point drunkenness, smiled and said to Prince Mu and Sun Fu Yin, "The two will go outside with the lonely to blow the air and enjoy the night view of Luohe?"

Prince Mu and Sun Fu Yin responded quickly and got up and went out.

Tao Ti also wanted to follow, but before she got up, Pei Yan held her shoulders heavily.

Tao Ti, "...?"

Pei Yan's dark eyes were deep, staring at her, but his tone was very gentle, "It's windy outside, the same is true when you open the window to enjoy the scenery."

Tao Ti was a little puzzled and a little wronged. She also wanted to go out and have a look. The outside view was so wide that it could not be compared with the window.

But Pei Yan watched her gaze, with a force that couldn't hold his beak.

After a while, she had to compromise, "All right."

Pei Yan raised his eyes and rubbed her little head, "Goodbye."

The prince went out with Prince Mu and Sun Fuyin, and the other officials followed. For a while, a group of female relatives were left in the private room.

The men were there just now, they were not easy to talk, now the men are all out, so you flatter Tao Ti.

Tao Ti was still immersed in the depression of Pei Yan's fluctuating heat towards her, and worked hard to deal with the next female relatives.

Not long after, a roar of fireworks skyrocketed from outside.

Tao Ti raised her eyebrows, is there a firework show?

As soon as this thought came out, the next moment, I heard a panicked shout from outside, mixed with the metal sound of the collision of swords and swords——

"Come here, there is an assassin! Protect the prince!"
