Piaomei Village is only a few dozen kilometers away from the Imperial City, and in ancient times, this distance was nothing.

In addition, the horses found by Ying and the others were not ordinary horses, and their speed was so fast that even if Su Wanqing and Pei Xiu were sitting in the carriage, they didn't feel much bumps.

They soon returned to Tianli Kingdom, and the secret guards beside Pei Tianyu quickly informed him of Pei Xiu and Su Wanqing's whereabouts. Hearing the news of their return, Pei Tianyu's eyes suddenly lit up.

At that time, Pei Tianyu was sitting in Ruan Guifei's Huaqing Palace drinking tea. The curling fragrance of tea slowly echoes throughout the Huaqing Palace, and even outside the door, you can smell the faint fragrance of tea.

Pei Tianyu squinted his eyes, sniffing the quiet tea in the delicate jade jade cup, the tempting aroma drilled into his nose, and then slowly spread to his heart.

Just smelling the rich fragrance of tea, Pei Tianyu felt that his fatigue in the past few days seemed to have been swept away. It is no exaggeration to say that the tea brewed by Ruan Guifei does have such an effect.

If you want to say why Ruan Guifei is so favored by the emperor, one of the biggest reasons is that she has a miraculous tea-making technique. In front of the fragrance of tea, it seems that all tiredness no longer exists, and the rest is just a calm and slow tea tasting and feeling the aroma and deliciousness of tea.

It's no wonder why Pei Tianyu always likes to sit in this Huaqing Palace when he has nothing to do, it is precisely because of the tea made by Ruan Guifei that Pei Tianyu fell for it. He stayed in Huaqing Palace, staying all day, as long as there were no major events in the court, Pei Tianyu was willing to sit here, drink tea, and chat with Ruan Guifei, so that he could feel a little comfortable in his busy life.

It is no exaggeration to say that Pei Tianyu's time in Huaqing Palace is more than the time he spent in Kunning Palace, where the queen is located. But the emperor and the queen have always respected each other like guests, and everyone knows that this Ruan Guifei is the emperor's favorite concubine, so there must be something special about her.

And after all, the queen's status is there, and it is impossible to really compete with Ruan Guifei for favor, otherwise, what should outsiders say about her?

At this moment, in the Kunning Palace, the maid is reporting to the queen with a pale expression, the emperor has only been down to the court for a short time, and now he has gone to Huaqing Palace.

The queen listened to the maidservant's report, and the soft handkerchief in her hand slowly tightened, and tightened again, but there was no expression on her face.

After a while, the queen waved her hand gently, and the maid quietly retreated as if relieved.

The emperor stayed in Huaqing Palace all day, and he had not rested in the queen's bedroom for a long time. No matter how tolerant and generous the queen is, she is a woman after all. What woman in the world can endure her husband not showing up all day long? Thinking of this, the maidservant couldn't help but feel a little sympathetic to the queen.

The queen mother is indeed the most noble woman in the whole Tianli country, but at the same time, she has to endure a lot of things. Let's not talk about how the concubines in the palace fight back and forth on weekdays, she also sees it in her eyes. What's angry is that Ruan Guifei can't get along with the queen all day long, she is favored by the emperor, and she dominates the emperor all day long, and now she stays in the Huaqing Palace all day long, and there are rumors in the palace that Ruan Guifei is actually pregnant, so the emperor is so worried about her and stays by her side all day long.

Thinking of this, the maidservant sighed silently in her heart.

But over the years, the queen mother has not fought with Ruan Guifei for anything, but has let her everywhere. Several times, Ruan Guifei almost stepped on the head of the queen mother, but the queen mother still didn't say anything, and never told the emperor about these things. Queen Mother, why is she bothering?

The queen mother looked at the cup of tea in front of her, and her delicately painted eyebrows were reflected in the clear tea, but she couldn't hide the crow's feet that had gradually appeared around her eyes.

Ruan Guifei, Ruan Guifei, I don't fight with you, but you provoke me again and again, why bother? Even if you win me, can you beat that woman?

I guess you know that in your heart, right? No matter how similar you are, you're not her after all. Immersing yourself in these illusory beauties is something that only a stupid woman like you can do.

Although the queen also loves the emperor deeply, as early as back then, she had seen through everything and let go of a lot of things. Otherwise, with her temperament, she would inevitably have to break her head with Ruan Guifei before she gave up.

But now, she just wants to stay quietly in her bedroom, raise fish and watch flowers, and this day will pass like this.

In fact, she knew in her heart that she was just doing this to make herself feel at ease. She had sworn that she would never get into the dispute in the palace again, and no matter how they provoked her, she would never go into it again.

Doing so can be regarded as a kind of atonement for the queen.

As for what she atoned for, only she must know in her own heart.

After hearing that Pei Xiu was back, the emperor couldn't help but be overjoyed, and the joy between his eyebrows couldn't be stopped.

Ruan Guifei next to her saw that Pei Tianyu was so happy, her eyes rolled slightly, and then she stepped forward and poured a little tea for Pei Tianyu, and then covered her lips and said with a smile: "The emperor doesn't know what good news he heard, so happy." Why don't you say it and make the concubines happy? ”

Pei Tianyu glanced at Ruan Guifei's coquettish eyebrows, and said with a smile: "Actually, it's nothing, didn't I send Xiaoliu and Su Yatou out to help me investigate some things a few days ago, and now I heard that they have already arrived outside the city gate and are coming back soon." ”

Ruan Guifei was stunned, quickly reacted, and said with a smile: "It turned out that the six princes and the future six princesses are back, no wonder the emperor is so happy, to say that these six princes are still so capable, always thinking about the emperor." It's a pity, God doesn't know if it's confused, but he actually made the six princes so ...... now."

Hearing Ruan Guifei's words, Pei Tianyu's eyebrows also faded with joy, he sighed lowly, and said helplessly: "Yes, my Xiaoliu doesn't know if he did something wrong in his previous life, and now he has become like this, I look at him like this, I also feel distressed!" ”

Seeing that Pei Tianyu was a little unhappy, and even began to feel sad, Ruan Guifei hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, you don't have to worry too much, everyone has their own life and creation. Now because of Miss Su's relationship, the six princes are willing to go out of the gate of the dormitory and appear in front of everyone. Isn't it a good thing that he can still do things for the emperor now? If you want the concubines to say, maybe the six princes are also a blessing in disguise? He met Miss Su, and the two of them are now lovers and finally married, and the six princes have cheered up because of this, haven't they? ”

Pei Tianyu listened to Ruan Guifei's words, nodded with deep sympathy, and said: "Concubine Ai is right, I didn't actually see it at the beginning, this Su girl actually has such great ability." After all, at the beginning, her reputation in Tianli Country was indeed a little bad. But as the emperor, how can I also be superstitious about those hearsay? It seems that people still have to know each other before they can really know what kind of person she is. Otherwise, there will be mistakes in looking at people. ”

Ruan Guifei pursed her lips and smiled, then seemed to remember something, and asked casually: "Your Majesty, I don't know what the matter is, but I have to bother the six princes to solve it?" The concubine is really a little curious. ”

Pei Tianyu patted his clothes, sighed, and said helplessly: "Concubine Ai, don't listen, so as not to scare you." ”

Ruan Guifei's eyes widened, and she looked a little innocent, and even more pitiful.

I only heard her say pitifully: "Your Majesty, it's wrong for you to do this, arouse the curiosity of the concubines, and don't tell the concubines, how can you be like this?" ”

Pei Tianyu glanced at her, stretched out his hand and gently flicked her forehead, causing Ruan Guifei to narrow her eyes.

Her cute appearance caused Pei Tianyu to laugh "haha", and then said: "In this case, you will be scared later, don't blame me." Some time ago, two faceless female corpses were found in a small fishing village, but the murderer did not know who they were. If this matter spreads, I am afraid that it will disturb the hearts of the people, so I sent Xiaoliu to see the situation, he has a calm temperament, and he is more reliable after all. ”

Ruan Guifei lowered her eyes slightly, thought for a while, and then raised her head, approached Pei Tianyu, hugged his arm, leaned her soft body into Pei Tianyu's arms, and said in a soft voice: "A female corpse without a face? Who is so cruel? Oh my God, this is really terrible, but it scares the concubines. ”

Pei Tianyu looked at Ruan Guifei's weak appearance, touched her head with some pity, and said softly: "I said that it would scare you, you want to listen, now it's okay, if you can't sleep tonight, don't cry." ”

Ruan Guifei blinked her eyes and said innocently: "The concubine can't sleep, the emperor wants to accompany the concubine, and the concubine won't let the emperor go." ”

Ruan Guifei's words successfully made Pei Tianyu happy. He pulled Ruan Guifei into his arms, and said with a smile: "Concubine Ai is really my treasure, if there is no Concubine Ai, I don't know what to do." ”

Ruan Guifei obediently leaned into Pei Tianyu's arms, and said a little shyly when she heard this: "What is the emperor talking about, the concubines will always be by the emperor's side and will not go anywhere." When the time comes, the emperor will not be allowed to annoy his concubines. ”

Pei Tianyu hugged her tightly, and said a little funny: "It's too late for me to love my concubine, how can I be annoyed by my concubine?" Concubine Ai, don't be cranky. ”

Ruan Guifei smiled and didn't speak again, but moved closer to Pei Tianyu's arms.

On the other side, Pei Xiu and Su Wanqing had already entered the imperial city and went directly to the imperial study.
