Xiao Yanzhi originally thought that Pei Ze's abnormality was only temporary, maybe it was because of the experience during this period of time, and when this situation subsided, Pei Ze would be able to return to normal, but Pei Ze proved with practical actions that he was a man who did what he said.

In the back garden of the Shu Palace, Xiao Yanzhi was hugged by Pei Ze and sat on a grass, and a thin blanket wrapped both of them.

Leaning in front of Pei Ze, Xiao Yanzhi suddenly asked, "You really don't plan to go to the court?" ”

He is injured, and it is forgivable not to go to the court, but what did Pei Ze want to do when he accompanied him to absent from work? It's the fifth day.

Pei Ze replied lazily, "Didn't you just enter the palace this morning?" ”

Xiao Yanzhi twitched the corners of his mouth and said, "That's to worship my father." ”

"Well, I visited Xu Lishan by the way."

Xiao Yanzhi turned his head to look at Pei Ze, and said suspiciously: "Don't you think you've gone too far lately?" I see that Xu Lishan has lost weight twice, and the things in the court must have made him anxious, right? ”

"Why didn't you find out that you cared so much about Xu Lishan before?" Pei Ze glanced at Xiao Yan dissatisfiedly, and then said, "If everything has to count on you and me, he should abdicate and make way for Xian earlier." ”

"That's the way it is......" Xiao Yanzhi frowned, "but you can't suddenly leave everything to him alone, right?" ”

Why can't there be a step-by-step process?

Pei Ze was speechless and said: "It's enough for you to care about me, if Xu Lishan really encounters something that can't be solved, he will send someone here, and you don't need to worry about it." ”

Xiao Yanzhi turned his head and glared at Pei Ze and said, "What do you want to do?" ”

Pei Ze's eyes were half-closed, and he lazily lay on Xiao Yanzhi's shoulder, and said, "I just want three years of vacation." ”

Xiao Yanzhi raised his hand and patted Pei Ze's forehead, and said with a smile: "King Wucheng, the supreme commander in charge of Chang'an's military defense, what do you say about a three-year vacation, are you dreaming?" ”

"It's just a place to hide, not to evaporate from the world. The Sixteenth Guard Society was temporarily represented by Chu Liang and Kong Qing. ”

He just said that he wanted to take a vacation, and he didn't say that he ignored the government, and he was not needed in the daily life of Chang'an City, so if something big happened, wouldn't he have to find him? said as if he would be trapped in Chang'an as long as he became the king of Wucheng.

Hearing the names of Chu Liang and Kong Qing at this time, Xiao Yanzhi turned his head to look at Pei Ze: "You have planned it a long time ago?" ”

Pei Ze glanced at Xiao Yan and said as a matter of course: "Naturally, everything has been arranged." ”

Can he really just say go? In Xiao Yanzhi's opinion, he is such an irresponsible person?

Thinking like this, Pei Ze turned his head and bit Xiao Yanzhi's neck in an unhappy mood.

"Hey! How do you bite? Xiao Yanzhi covered his neck and glared at Pei Ze.

Pei Ze snorted lightly, hugging Xiao Yanyi with a smug face.

"I've seen the King of Shu, I've seen the prince," Donggui lowered his head and reluctantly walked behind Pei Ze and Xiao Yanzhi, his voice was so small that he was almost inaudible, "Lord Qi, Xiao Ren'an's brothers and sisters ask to see." ”

In the past, only the King of Shu was not serious, and he liked to stick to their prince when he had nothing to do, and he didn't care about the eyes of others at all, but recently, why did even their prince get up as if no one was around? Although everyone in the mansion knows about the relationship between these two people, although there are no outsiders in this mansion, can they pay attention? Even the loving husband and wife of ordinary people will not be in broad daylight and in public, right? Did the two consider the feelings of them, the bystanders?

Obviously, neither Xiao Yanzhi nor Pei Ze had considered the feelings of others, Pei Ze was still lying on Xiao Yanzhi's shoulder and did not move, and Xiao Yanzhi was still leaning in front of Pei Ze, not feeling embarrassed at all.

But hearing that his younger siblings returned to Beijing, Xiao Yanzhi was still very happy.

"They're back? Bring them here! ”

"Uh......" Donggui glanced at Pei Ze and asked, "Do you want the two princes to come to the hall to receive you?" ”

They want to change their posture when they meet guests!

Pei Ze opened his eyes and glanced at Donggui, and then said, "It's good to bring people here." ”

Since putting on filial piety clothes, Xiao Yanzhi has to go to the palace every morning to incense in front of the emperor's spiritual seat, and the rest of the time is staying in the back garden and is reluctant to leave, he doesn't know whether Xiao Yanzhi is missing or saying goodbye, all he can do is sit here with Xiao Yanzhi.

Donggui turned around and left, and only after a quarter of an hour did he lead the three Xiao Ren'an brothers and sisters and Liu Hanqing to the back garden.

"Brother!" Xiao Junmeng didn't care what kind of intimate posture Pei Ze and Xiao Yanzhi were at this moment, as soon as he saw Xiao Yanzhi, he walked over angrily, but the tears fell halfway through, "Brother, you bastard!" actually colluded with the young master to deceive us! ”

When the young master said that she wanted to take them to Lingnan in person, she still felt strange, even if she went to Lingnan to do business, she didn't have to bring all the people from Yanfu, right? Even those maids who couldn't be brought with them were sent back to their home by the young master, and the entire Yan Mansion was empty, but it was more like a refugee.

And halfway through, they heard that the prince in Chang'an City seemed to be going to war in order to fight for power, and they only then understood why the young master sent all the people of Yanfu out. But at that time, they had already arrived in Jiangnan Province, and it was not easy for the three of them to return alone, and Brother Han Qing had already separated from them and turned to Xizhou, and the most important thing was that the young master did not allow them to come back, and the third brother was even beaten for this matter.

Xiao Yanzhi turned his head to look at Xiao Junmeng, and said angrily: "You girl! I just put you in foster care for someone else's house for a while, who taught you to call your brother a jerk? ”

Jun Meng really wronged him when he said this, although he asked Yan Sheng to help take care of his younger siblings, but when he remembered to send his younger siblings away, Yan's mansion was already empty.

"Brother is a big bastard!" Xiao Junmeng cried and threw herself in front of Xiao Yanzhi, "Every time something happens, it will only tear us apart, do you know how worried we are?!" ”

Xiao Junmeng said as he beat Xiao Yanzhi. Pei Ze stepped back a little so as not to be affected.

As soon as Pei Ze retreated, the thin blanket that had been wrapping the two people spread out, revealing the filial piety clothes worn by the two of them.

Xiao Junmeng was frightened and looked at Xiao Yanzhi with a panicked expression.

"Brother, you ......"

Brother, is this going to keep filial piety for the late Majesty?

"It's okay," Xiao Yanzhi raised his hand and touched Xiao Junmeng's head, then turned his head to look at Xiao Ren'an and Xiao Xiangsheng, and said with a smile, "You can find a place to sit by yourself, brother, I can't stand up now, so I can only let you sit down." ”

Hearing the first half of the sentence, Xiao Ren'an, Xiao Xiangsheng and Liu Hanqing, who was deliberately ignored, began to find a place to sit down, but when they heard these words at the end, the three of them were shocked.

"Brother, ...... Legs ......" Xiao Xiangsheng looked at Xiao Yanzhi's legs covered by the hem of his clothes, and his tongue was knotted in fright.

Seeing that several people were frightened, Xiao Yanzhi hurriedly lifted the hem of his clothes to show his legs, and said with a smile: "Why do you think about some scary things?" It's just a slight injury, and it's not convenient to move around for the time being. ”

Xiao Junmeng looked at Xiao Yanzhi suspiciously, and then turned his head and asked Pei Zedao: "Lord Wang, is this so?" ”

Since she came to Chang'an, her brother can't tell the truth, and she doesn't believe her brother anymore!

Xiao Yan was stunned, then shook his head and smiled.

Pei Ze nodded and said, "Well, as long as your brother is honest, it's not a big deal." ”

"Then the prince, you must watch my brother, don't let him move!" Xiao Junmeng said with a serious face, "If you really can't control him, tie him up and tie him to the bed!" ”

Xiao Yanzhi couldn't help but slap Xiao Junmeng's head, and smiled helplessly: "Whose sister are you?" ”

Still tied to bed? How did this girl come up with such a bad idea?

Xiao Junmeng pursed his lips and said, "Who made my brother so unreliable." ”

Xiao Yanzhi rolled his eyes widely, and then asked Xiao Ren'an, "Did you encounter anything interesting on this trip?" ”

Who knew that Xiao Ren'an, who had never complained about Xiao Yanzhi, also complained: "Where can I encounter interesting things? On the way, I heard that something happened in the capital, and I couldn't laugh at any interesting things. Xiangsheng was also punished by the young master in order to return to Chang'an. ”

Hearing this, Xiao Yanzhi chuckled.

"Sure enough, they are all here," Xiao Chunyue led a few maids and came with tea and fruits, "I heard that Lian Sheng said that Ren'an and they came, but they didn't see anyone in the hall, so I guess you are here to accompany you." ”

"Sister." Xiao Ren'an and the three of them shouted obediently.

Xiao Chunyue smiled at the three of them, and then walked to Xiao Yanzhi's side with a bowl of decoction and squatted down, saying, "This is your medicine." ”

Xiao Yanzhi's smile froze, and he moved his butt and retreated, but after bumping into Pei Ze, Xiao Yanzhi had nowhere to retreat.

"That...... I'll leave the medicine there first, and I'll drink it later. ”

"What are you waiting for?" Xiao Chunyue's eyes widened, and she approached Xiao Yanzhi reluctantly, "This medicine is neither hot nor cold today, I specially tried the temperature before bringing it to you." ”

Xiao Chunyue really didn't expect Xiao Yanzhi to be afraid of drinking medicine, obviously he didn't frown when the bones in his legs were pierced, but every time he saw the decoction, it was like seeing □□.

"Uh......" Xiao Yanzhi stared at the bowl of soup medicine, but he didn't stretch out his hand.

Xiao Chunyue glanced at Xiao Yan, and then handed the medicine bowl in her hand to Pei Ze, and said, "There is Lord Lao." ”

Pei Ze didn't even hesitate for a moment, he put one hand around Xiao Yanzhi's waist to prevent Xiao Yanzhi from escaping, and with the other hand, he took the bowl of medicine and immediately poured it into his mouth, and then broke Xiao Yanzhi's head and poured it mouth to mouth.

Xiao Xiangsheng looked at this amazing scene in amazement, and then gave Pei Ze a thumbs up: "It is worthy of being the king of Wucheng, domineering!" ”

The corners of Xiao Ren'an's mouth twitched, and he raised his hand and slapped Xiao Xiangsheng on the back of the head.

Compared with the surprise of several other people, Xiao Chunyue, who was already surprised, was much calmer, pinched two pieces of candied fruit from the plate and stuffed them directly into Xiao Yanzhi's mouth.

Liu Hanqing hadn't spoken since he appeared in front of Xiao Yanzhi, but at this time, he gave Xiao Junmeng a look.

Xiao Junmeng hesitated, but still rubbed to Xiao Yanzhi's side, hugged Xiao Yanzhi's arm, and leaned on Xiao Yanzhi's shoulder with his head tilted.

"Brother, I have something to discuss with you."

"No." Xiao Yanzhi refused without thinking, and glared at Liu Hanqing by the way.

As soon as Xiao Junmeng was coquettish, he knew what she was going to say. This damn Liu Hanqing, dare to let Jun Meng say this thing, try it, and kill him!

didn't expect Xiao Yanzhi to refuse, Xiao Junmeng glared at Xiao Yanzhi and shouted dissatisfiedly: "Brother, you haven't listened to me yet, what's the matter!" ”

"Promise nothing." Xiao Yanzhi put his head aside.

"Brother!" Xiao Junmeng shook Xiao Yanzhi's arm vigorously.

Noticing Xiao Yanzhi's eyes, Liu Hanqing coughed dryly twice, and then suddenly moved to Xiao Yanzhi and sat upright.

As soon as he saw his posture, the people around him were stunned and knew what he was going to say, and they all looked at Xiao Yanzhi.

Liu Hanqing smiled and said, "That...... There's something I'd like to discuss with you. ”

Xiao Yanzhi snorted coldly and said, "Say." ”

Liu Hanqing hurriedly spoke: "Look...... Jun Meng has also passed fifteen, and I am not too young, this marriage is ......"

Xiao Yanzhi glared at Liu Hanqing fiercely, and said, "Since you are the eldest is not small, then go and marry a wife, don't discuss this matter with your father, what did you come to me to discuss?" ”

The corners of Liu Hanqing's mouth twitched, but he still smiled and said, "I haven't discussed this with my father, and I want to marry a girl from your family, so I came to discuss it with you." ”

"Brother...... was afraid that Xiao Yanzhi would be embarrassed by Liu Hanqing, Xiao Junmeng pulled Xiao Yanzhi's sleeve and shook it twice.

Seeing this, Xiao Chunyue burst out laughing and made fun of Xiao Junmeng: "This is really a big girl." ”

Xiao Junmeng's face was slightly red, but his face was firm.

Xiao Yanzhi glanced at Xiao Junmeng, then at Liu Hanqing, and then asked Xiao Chunyue, "What does my sister think of this kid?" ”

"Huh?" Xiao Chunyue was stunned for a moment, and then looked at Liu Hanqing a little blankly.

As soon as Liu Hanqing heard Xiao Yanzhi ask Xiao Chunyue, he immediately turned his head to look at Xiao Chunyue, his eyes full of pleading.

Regarding this matter, Ren An and Xiangsheng couldn't speak, if he could help him, only his sister Xiao Chunyue and King Wu Cheng would be able to help, but it was not easy to let King Wu Cheng intervene in this matter, he could only hope that his sister would help him speak. Fortunately, he also knows that Yan Zhi attaches great importance to this sister, and he has been paying attention to leaving a good impression on his sister since they met, so it should be no problem, right?

Seeing that cold sweat broke out on Liu Hanqing's forehead, Xiao Chunyue said with a smile: "People say that there is no treachery and no business, I heard that this son has a few shops in Chang'an City, and it only took more than two years to make a name for himself, he must be a treacherous person." ”

Upon hearing this, Liu Hanqing was dumbfounded, and immediately explained in a panic: "That...... This one...... That's helplessness in the business field, I'm actually very simple! ”

Xiao Chunyue covered her mouth and chuckled, and then said: "But as a businessman, he is still quite capable, and he will probably be able to make a lot of money in the future. ”

Liu Hanqing was stunned, and then breathed a long sigh of relief.

Don't scare him!

Seeing that Liu Hanqing breathed a sigh of relief, Xiao Chunyue deliberately said again: "Although there is no shortage of money, is this son's age too much of a king's dream?" ”

Liu Hanqing's heart instantly lifted again.

Xiao Yanzhi glanced at Liu Hanqing and said proudly: "Well, my sister guessed right, he is two years older than me." ”

"Oops!" Xiao Chunyue pretended to be surprised and said, "That's really not small, two or three years old will be able to be Junmeng's father." ”

"It's not...... That ...... "Liu Hanqing really wants to cry."

It's not his fault that he's old, his father and his mother gave birth to him so early, what should he do? It's just embarrassing for him, why is it even embarrassing for his sister? Did he do anything to offend his sister? Obviously there isn't!

"Sister!" Xiao Junmeng saw that Xiao Yanzhi and Xiao Chunyue were singing and harmonizing to deliberately embarrass Liu Hanqing, so he immediately quit.

Seeing Xiao Junmeng's appearance of blowing his beard and staring, Xiao Chunyue said to Xiao Yanzhi: "Look at this girl, it's not so bad, her elbow is turned out, but hurry up and marry it." ”

Xiao Yanzhi also shook his head and sighed: "Alas, sister, my heart hurts so much, my sister who was raised with great difficulty will not be towards me when she grows up, and sure enough, my daughters are raised by others." ”

"Brother! Ignore you! Xiao Junmeng pushed Xiao Yan violently, and then got up and ran.

Xiao Yanzhi smiled and said unhurriedly: "Didn't you come to discuss with me?" Don't want to know my answer? ”

Xiao Junmeng's footsteps stopped, and then reluctantly walked back, but sat next to Liu Hanqing.

Seeing that Liu Hanqing's kung fu was also frightened for a while, Xiao Yanzhi didn't tease them anymore, just looked at Liu Hanqing expressionlessly, and said: "Since it is Jun Meng's own decision, I won't say anything, originally I taught her like this, and there is no position against it now, but the three media and six hires are all indispensable, Hanqing, you can do it yourself." ”

Xiao Junmeng frowned and said, "What do you want for three media and six hires?" Trouble is dead! And brother, where did you ask Brother Han Qing to send the dowry gift? ”

Xiao Yanzhi glared at Xiao Junmeng and said, "Han Qing is not in a hurry, what are you anxious about?" Don't talk, stay honest! ”

Xiao Junmeng snorted lightly and closed his mouth.

Pei Ze suddenly interjected: "The dowry is going to be sent to the Wucheng Palace." ”

When Pei Ze opened his mouth, everyone looked at Pei Ze.

"Why?" Xiao Yan was puzzled, "How do you think it is also going to be sent to the Shu Palace, right?" She's my sister. ”

"Nominally my stepsister." Pei Ze explained.

Xiao Yanzhi was stunned, blinked, and asked a little confusedly, "What...... How did you become your sister? ”

Pei Ze said calmly: "The household registration of the four of you brothers and sisters all falls on my household registration. ”

Xiao Yanzhi stared at Pei Ze, still at a loss: "When did you leave our household registration on your household registration?" Isn't my household registration supposed to be with my father? ”

Pei Ze shook his head and said, "The first emperor didn't mention this matter, so it fell to me." As soon as they arrived in Chang'an, they asked Li An to do it. ”

"How come I've never heard of it?!" Xiao Yanzhi glared.

"Because I didn't tell you." Pei Ze said confidently.

Xiao Yan was stunned and couldn't say a word.

Xiao Junmeng finally seized the opportunity to fight back, so he made fun of Xiao Yanzhi: "Isn't this just right?" Anyway, brother, you and the prince are already a family, and sooner or later you will have to enter the prince's household registration, how good it is that the prince is so prescient. ”

Xiao Yanzhi turned his head and glared at Xiao Junmeng and said, "You girl can't keep your mouth shut?" ”

Xiao Junmeng smiled and grimaced at Xiao Yanzhi.

Xiao Yanzhi gritted his teeth in anger, and then turned his anger on Liu Hanqing, and said: "That's okay, you send the dowry to King Wucheng's mansion, and you want to marry King Wucheng's righteous sister, you have to weigh this weight clearly." ”

Liu Hanqing raised his hand to wipe the sweat on his forehead, and responded with a smile: "Yes, I know...... King Wu Cheng must not be disgraced! ”

The dowry is going to be sent to the palace of King Wucheng...... I'm afraid that the dowry that has been prepared is not enough, and it is probably not enough to add all the money he has earned in the past two years, and he may have to borrow some from his father...... I don't know if my father will want to strangle him.

A few people got together and chatted for a while, Xiao Ren'an and the others said goodbye and left, Xiao Chunyue and Donggui wanted to send off the guests, and they also left, and only Pei Ze and Xiao Yanzhi were left in the back garden of the Shu Palace.

Xiao Yanzhi pondered carefully for a long time, but still couldn't understand why the household registration of their brothers and sisters fell to Pei Ze, so he asked Pei Ze: "Ren'an, when they first came, why did you think about leaving the household registration to you?" You can leave this alone, right? ”

Pei Ze hugged Xiao Yanzhi again, wrapped the two of them in a blanket, and then replied: "When will I leave your affairs alone?" ”

"Then it won't fall on your own household registration, right? At that time, as long as you buy a house for Ren'an and them, you can settle down for them with the relationship of King Wucheng, right? Xiao Yanzhi pursed his lips, then turned his head to look at Pei Ze and said with a smile, "Could it be that you fell in love with me at that time?" ”

Pei Ze also stared at Xiao Yanzhi, and then said, "Maybe it's true." ”

Xiao Yanzhi twitched the corners of his mouth and said, "You've been getting better and better at talking nonsense lately!" ”

Whitening Xiao Yan's eyes, Pei Ze said: "You are you?" ”

"So what are you not talking nonsense?" Xiao Yanzhi said unconvinced, "I remember that your eyes were full of disgust when you looked at me. ”

Pei Ze explained: "It's not so much disgust, but that you can't calm down when you see you. Obviously a country boy, powerless and powerless, but he seems to be ignorant of his situation, he laughs all day long, there is nothing he dare not say, nothing he dares to do, but I am worried all day long about whether you will lose your life in a place where I can't see, and I am so anxious. ”

Recalling his original state of mind, Pei Ze couldn't help laughing.

Xiao Yanzhi raised his eyebrows slightly, thought about it carefully, and then asked, "Then why do you like me?" Or do you just like the kind of people who don't know the sky? ”

Pei Ze said with a smile: "Don't admire fame and fortune, do whatever you want, be affectionate, free and easy, you and I are completely different people, but you are the kind of person I yearn for." ”

Xiao Yanzhi pursed his lips, grabbed Pei Ze's hand, clasped his fingers, and said with a smile: "For the first time in my life, I am glad that I am such a person." ”

Because he is such a person, he can be with such Pei Ze.

Pei Ze held Xiao Yanzhi's hand and smiled without saying a word.
