After leaving the palace, the crown prince did not move to a house in a prosperous part of the capital, but chose a quiet village and bought a simple house there that was only suitable for one person.

It can be seen that he wants to get rid of the status quo very much, he doesn't want to be a prince, he doesn't want to be a prince, and he doesn't even want to have anything to do with the royal family, so he never mentions what his real surname is called outside, and only uses his own small characters to be cautious, which was taken for him by the first emperor, hoping that he, as a son-in-law, will abstain from greed and be cautious in his words and deeds.

"Why are you here?" The prince looked at Pei Yu, who was wearing a simple makeup in front of him, wearing a small white flower on his head, holding a bouquet of small lilac wildflowers picked from nowhere, and standing in front of his door with a calm smile.

Although this village is small, but because the feng shui is very good, there are a lot of people who live, and people come and go to see that the young lady in front of the door of the son of Shen is born pure, and think that it should have a lot to do with the son of Shen.

Pei Yu smiled happily and stuffed the words in his hand into the prince's arms, looking at him with eyes full of admiration, and his face was unconsciously stained with red clouds, "I finally found your residence, I went to the house in the capital to ask, and the people said that you left, and it took many people to know that it was here." ”

It seems that she has come out of the grief of her aunt's death, but this white flower in the black hair, she still misses her aunt very much...... After all, I cried so heartbreaking in the temple that day.

"Don't stand outside the door, come in." The prince had a kind smile on his face, and his mood became more pleasant because of Pei Yu's arrival.

As soon as he walked into the room, there was a faint fragrance, which was the same as the smell on the prince's body, but he didn't know what kind of fragrance it was, it was so refreshing, Pei Yu felt relaxed as soon as he came in, and even the emotions that had been tense all the time eased a lot.

"It's quite far from the capital, the carriage is bumpy, your body is not very good, you must have suffered a lot on the road, drink a cup of tea first, and I'll cook in a while." Pei Yu took the teacup in the prince's hand with a stupid look, she didn't like to drink tea, because it was bitter in her mouth, but today she felt that this tea was sweet.

Is this still him? In the past, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince now washed her hands and made soup, and she couldn't believe it if she wanted to change it, but seeing the prince's skillful action of chopping wood and selecting vegetables and chopping vegetables, she found that he was not suitable for the deep palace, and now this pastoral life is what he wants, isn't it?

Pei Yu walked towards the prince uncontrollably, and as soon as the man turned around, he saw the girl with dull eyes looking at him like this, and he was a little embarrassed, this distance ...... Is it too close, he looked at Pei Yu's plain face that was close at hand, swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and finally restrained the nameless fire in his heart, took a step back and moved a little away from her, and said with an uncomfortable expression:

"It's smoky here, so you'd better go out and wait for me first...... The meal will be fine in a while. ”

But the woman in front of her still had no intention of leaving, the prince didn't know what she wanted to do, the two looked at each other's eyes like this and were silent for a while, and finally Pei Yu came back to his senses and apologized to the prince embarrassedly, "It's Pei Yu who is rude, and I hope His Royal Highness the prince won't blame." ”

I only listened to the prince's self-deprecating smile, left the small kitchen that seemed a little crowded after only two people, and wiped the water on his hands, "What else is the prince, if you don't dislike it, just call me a little word and be careful." ”

His laughter was a self-deprecation of the past, but listening carefully, he was satisfied with his current life and his expectations for his future life.

"Son of Prudence!" The woman who suddenly broke in was holding a pot of fragrant thick white fresh soup in her hand, and her tone, which was originally still happy, became full of doubts and hostility after seeing Pei Yu, "Who is Shen Zhigongzi?" ”

The prince's attitude towards women is also kind, but he is more or less full of alienation, unlike Pei Yu, the eyes that look at her are clearly lovely, "Best friend, what is the important matter that Miss Chen came to find Shenzhi?" Or is there something that my father needs help with? ”

The woman's eyes were full of hostility when she looked at Pei Qi, she was a little annoyed and put down a large pot of soup in her hand on the table, and looked at Pei Qi with dissatisfaction, "Best friend? Why haven't I heard that you have such a best friend, Childe? She moved forward slowly, her eyes sharp, Pei Yu was forced by her to step back, and threw a look of help to the prince.

The man came to Pei Yu to block Miss Chen, who was still trying to go forward, his face was not as kind as just now, but on the contrary, he was indifferent, and even his tone became cold and impersonal, "Miss Chen, pay attention to your words, you and I are only a few faces, do I still need to tell you one by one?" ”

As soon as he said this, Miss Chen was finished, and he didn't stare at Pei Yu anymore, and walked into the kitchen and took out two white porcelain bowls and soup spoons, "This is the soup I stewed with my own hands, come and go often." ”

After speaking, he sat on the wooden bench unceremoniously, one bowl was hers, and the other was the prince's, leaving Pei Yu aside, Pei Yu had a soft temperament, knowing that he was not welcome in this house, and he didn't say anything, and then said goodbye to the prince after sighing lightly, "Tai ......" just wanted to call His Royal Highness the Prince, but realized that there were outsiders there, Pei Yu quickly changed his words, "Brother Shenzhi, then Pei Yu went back first, and after coming out for too long, my mother should be worried......"

When she turned her head, the prince clearly saw a crystal teardrop in the corner of the girl's eyes, and her voice just now was also choked, without the slightest hesitation, the prince chased Pei Yu out, but she was not in the carriage at all, and she didn't know where to run and hid quietly, and after searching for a long time, she finally found her by the lake.

Pei Yu also knew that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince had no special relationship with the young lady just now, just the concern between friends, but when she saw the young lady looking at His Royal Highness the Crown Prince so ambiguously, she couldn't help it, and she was jealous in her heart, not to mention that she found the kitchen so naturally to get bowls and soup spoons, so she knew that she must have often come to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince on weekdays...... The more I thought about it, the more jealous I felt, and instead of finally being embarrassed in front of His Royal Highness the Prince, it was better to find an excuse to leave first.

"I've been looking for you for a long time." Pei Yu, who was still immersed in her own sadness, suddenly heard a man's voice behind her, and at first thought it was her auditory hallucination, but without waiting for her to turn her head, she listened to the voice and continued: "Let's go back to the house first, it's getting dark, I'll send you back after eating." ”

Pei Yu stubbornly didn't want to turn his head to look at him, the prince was familiar with the reason, and took the initiative to explain to her, "When I first arrived, I met his father falling into the river, so he rescued him, and her family thanked me, so they also treated me very well, I have nothing to do with Miss Chen, if I insist on saying it, I can be regarded as an ordinary friend." ”

"Ordinary friends are so kind to bring you soup?" Pei Yu regretted it as soon as she finished speaking, and at first she didn't realize that her words were so ambiguous.

Even the prince, who had always been calm, was a little distracted, and looked at Pei Yu, whose eyes were red, in a daze, "Your jealous appearance is very cute." ”

The man's words successfully made Pei Yu blush, and quickly waved his hand not to admit that he was jealous, but he stammered when he spoke, and the blush on his face became more shy and beautiful.

The two of them thought that the young lady of the Chen family would leave after such a long time, but they didn't expect that when they returned to the hut, she was still waiting there, guarding the two bowls of soup that had already been cold.

"Shenzhi Gongzi, you're back, the soup is cold, I'm going to reheat it." She was really a good wife and mother, but the prince didn't like her, although her face was still as amiable as before, but there was no warmth in what she said:

"Miss Chen, your whole family treats me well, but I only have the righteousness of a friend to you, and I have no other feelings, if you misunderstand, I will explain today, apologize to you, and please don't do these things that will make others misunderstand in the future in contact with me, but ...... If men and women don't kiss, it's better that you and I don't see each other in the future. ”

I don't know why, Pei Yu felt favored outside the mansion for the first time, and on the way back, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince didn't say anything more to her, only said that he would explain his mind to the young lady for a while, what she didn't expect was that his attitude would be so tough that he couldn't refuse.

Miss Chen couldn't believe that all this she had been trying to maintain for this time disappeared after the arrival of this woman, her injured appearance made Pei Yu unbearable, Pei Yu kindly stepped forward and tried to support the young lady, "Miss Chen, I know that whatever I say is hurtful to you...... But feelings are a matter of two people...... The twisted melon is not sweet......"

As soon as the words fell, Pei Yu was pushed away by the young lady of the Chen family, and the woman pointed at her viciously and yelled: "You don't need to be merciful here!" If it weren't for you, he wouldn't have done this to me! ”

Pei Qi's body was already weak, and Miss Chen's strength was greater, Pei Qi was almost pushed to the ground by her, but fortunately, the prince quickly supported her, and the Miss Chen family was even more unconvinced when she saw this, "Women like you can only pretend to be weak and please men, disgusting." ”

Indeed, there are many women who pretend to be weak and pitiful, but Pei Yu has always been this kind of soft and kind character, this is due to the family education, not pretending, seeing that the prince wanted to argue with him, Pei Yu quickly grabbed him and whispered to the prince: "She just has fire in her heart, just vent it." ”

But you can't be humiliated like this, right, is he still a man?

Pei Yu could see what the prince was thinking, took his hand and patted it twice, telling him that he was fine, although this Miss Chen family spoke badly and had a hot temper, but her temperament was not bad, she was not a wicked person, she would scold twice if she wanted to, she felt bored and left.

Or Pei Yu is too naïve, this young lady is tired of scolding and doesn't say anything, and even continues to scold after sitting down to rest, the more Pei Yu endures her, the more she gets an inch, she doesn't know how to restrain at all, Rao is good-natured people like Pei Yu and the prince are so angry with her, "Enough." Please go out, you are no longer welcome here, don't come back in the future, I don't want to see you. ”

In the end, the prince couldn't help it, and Pei Yu no longer stopped him, Miss Chen looked at the prince in disbelief, and tears immediately flowed out, "You...... Son of Caution...... I...... I was wrong, I won't scold, don't do this to me......"

"I thought I could be friends with you, but now I find that the gap between you and me is too big, many concepts are different, and I don't like your way of life either, so let's take you and your soup and go out."

What he said now can be regarded as giving face, if this young lady continues to entangle, he will have to say something ugly, this time the young lady of the Chen family is completely dead and no longer continues to curse, but before leaving, she still glanced at Pei Yu viciously.

This stare made Pei Yu a little inexplicable, she didn't do anything, and she didn't even say a word of retort when she scolded, she didn't even have a displeased expression, why did she stare at herself with such a scary expression.

"You have been wronged, now that it is dark, I will fry a small dish today, and your mother should really worry about it if it is too late."

On the way back to send Pei Qi, he did not ride in the carriage with Pei Qi, but rode his horse and followed the carriage, occasionally saying a few words to Pei Qi in the carriage, and waited until he arrived in the capital, and only left after seeing Pei Qi enter the house safely. Neither of them fell asleep that night, lying tossing and turning in bed, their minds were all about each other.

……

Since Pei Yu's father had an accident, life has not been as good as before, and the military power has been fully recovered, and the emperor still retains the glory of their house because the Pei family has produced a lot of generals and handsome talents who have done their best for the five gods, but it is a pity that there is such a descendant as Pei Qingzhi.

Pei Qingzhi is now idle at home all day long, and there is no income in the house, but fortunately, the old book left by the ancestors is enough for them to squander, and everything is quite smooth, the only thing that is not going well is that now the people of the entire five gods do not want to see their family, and even people like Pei Yu who stay at home are not treated in the five gods, but fortunately, she does not leave the house, and many people in the five gods do not recognize her, otherwise they will be spurned when they go out.

"It's all to blame on that old thing, now the prince is no longer in the capital, such a good prince, he was killed like this, I heard an old mother from my mother-in-law's relatives say that her son is in charge of purchasing in the palace, and his son has seen the prince once, saying that His Royal Highness the prince was full of injuries when he first came out of the palace, and even there was a big wound on his face." The people next to him all looked like they didn't believe it, and they spit out a sentence of evil. Some people's scolding words are even unbearable.

Pei Yu heard this from a roadside stall when she went to the village to find the prince, she knew that her father had harmed His Royal Highness the prince a lot, but he had also contributed to the five gods, and now these people are talking about him like this, it really makes her feel cold, is it true that her father disregarded his own safety and brought Prince Jun back from the battlefield? Could it be that the heads of those enemies that my father cut off on the battlefield were also fake? Father did do unforgivable things, but since he has been blessed by the emperor's grace to stay at home, can't everyone let him go when he is old and decrepit......

With such emotions, even if Pei Yu saw the prince, he couldn't hide the discomfort in his expression, "What's wrong?" But someone is bullying you? ”

When the prince asked her, the last sentence was a little angry, he knew that Pei Yu had a gentle temperament and was easy to be bullied, not to mention that in this situation, everyone's anger had nowhere to go, so it was sent to the Pei family.

Pei Yu smiled calmly and shook his head, "No, how could anyone bully me...... I don't go out on weekdays, and even if they want to bully me, they can't help it. ”

Her smile looked a little embarrassing, the prince didn't believe her words, but seeing that she didn't want to say it, he didn't force her, "If you don't want to say it, I won't force you, but Pei Yu, you are born noble, if someone bullies you, you don't have to swallow your anger, you know?" ”

Even if her father is still guilty now, it does not prevent Pei Yu from being born and noble, her great-grandfather was the youngest commander of the five gods, and he killed countless demons and demons who violated the five gods, and her grandfather rescued the captured emperor alone, and her grandmother's mother is also a big family of the five gods, and the current queen mother is a close friend, not to mention her resourcefulness, and she is very skilled, not only is she her husband's virtuous helper, but also the right-hand man who can assist and help her husband, Pei is the real nobleman of the five gods, This is also the reason why he said that Pei Yu was born noble.

But he wondered why the Pei family, who had always been loyal, would do such a thing, not to mention that he didn't understand, even Pei Yu, Xueyu and Emperor Zhenyuan didn't understand.

In Pei Yu's heart, his father has always been a majestic commander, but he also has a soft side, his father has a lot of patience with his children, he does not have the idea of male superiority and inferiority, on the contrary, his father loves their sisters more than his brothers, he has always loved his mother, doted on his aunt, and respected his grandmother, he is undoubtedly a kind and kind father, a meticulous husband and son at home, but on the battlefield, he is also a decisive commander who kills, and he is the god of war who is feared by countless enemies, why would he do such a thing......

Suddenly, Pei Yu realized that things didn't seem to be so simple, and she grabbed the prince's hands excitedly, "Brother Shenzhi...... Father is not that kind of person, he must have unspeakable suffering, you and I will check it out......" There was begging in her tone, and her eyes were pitiful like a small animal caught by a hunter.

"Okay, okay, you can't cry...... ...... obediently" The prince stretched out a big hand and covered Pei Yu's soft hair, he also felt that something was wrong, Master Pei was famous for leading troops rigorously in the army, how could such a person who was fearless in killing the enemy, and even putting life and death out of the way, could seek to usurp his father's throne.

But even if the two of them want to investigate, they have no clue, at this time Pei Yu thought of a person who might be able to help herself, that is Ji Mi, she is quite sure, this lady should be very interested in this matter, and will help her, I don't know why, but I just feel like this, that lady is a warm-hearted and righteous person.
