Chapter 1 The dawn moon is like a dream

The palace lamp composed of copper pillars stood upright next to the table, the oil lamp was dim, and the fireworks flickered faintly. Chai Xuan looked at the slightly flickering lamp in distraction, and whenever it was about to go out, it always staggered and lit up again.

Xiao Man, who was secretly lying outside the door, stared intently at Chai Xuan, who was sad in the house, full of worry. With this look, how can I tell her about Cao Shu's coming.

Steady mood, Xiao Man still entered the door, and after a few thoughts, he still looked at the opening and said: "Girl, just now Cao Chang came to deliver the decree, saying that His Majesty is coming to ...... today" Xiao Man's tone became lighter and lighter, for fear of touching the uneasiness in Chai Xuan's heart again.

Since I came back yesterday, I was a very cheerful person, but I had a cold face all day. Especially when he received the will of the noble man this morning, his face was so dark that he couldn't do it. Even when Ye Er was beside him, he didn't show his face much. So I didn't even dare to mention the word 'noble' in front of her.

"I see." Chai Xuan slowly withdrew her gaze and stood up. "So what should I prepare?"

looked at Chai Xuan, who had a melancholy face, and wrote a face full of displeasure, if he greeted Cao Pi with such an expression, he would not be angry.

"Girl, it's better to be kind. After all, it is the Son of Heaven today......"

Xiao Man wanted to try his best to persuade Chai Xuan to accept the status quo, after all, it was disrespectful to be cold with a son of heaven. But when the words came to his mouth, he couldn't say them, so he could only swallow them back.

"I know, I'll do my best."

Chai Xuan said coldly. But his expression was still as cold as ice, and he felt weird and awkward in his heart. In case Cao Pi comes, if he still has this expression, he will really anger Long Yan.

"Your Majesty has arrivedβ€”" A long voice was drawn, suggesting that the people in the house hurried out to greet them.

Qing's eyes were dark, and Chai Xuan unconsciously clenched her fists. Looking at Chai Xuan like this, Xiao Man's heart couldn't help but rise to his throat. Secretly praying that all things are safe.

Before they went out, the dragon-patterned robe had already entered the door, and Chai Xuan and the others hurriedly knelt on the ground and saluted.

"Hurry up~" Cao Pi, who was smiling with starry eyes, personally bent down to help Chai Xuan up, and smiled faintly, "Xuan'er, I know you don't like these red tapes. From this day forward, as long as there are no outsiders, you don't have to bow to me, okay? ”

Raising her eyes lightly, she met the warm and smiling eyes, Chai Xuan was a little surprised. Didn't Cao Pi regard rights as life, why could he be exempted from his own etiquette, and for the first time in front of himself, he didn't even use the self-title of "I", didn't he always use "my son" and "lonely".

"How dare a concubine, Your Majesty is Your Majesty, you don't dare to do this." Chai Xuan pulled out her arm from Cao Pi's hand and deliberately kept some distance from Cao Pi.

Looking at Chai Xuan's unusually cautious appearance, Cao Pi felt a little uneasy in his heart. "Xuan'er, I didn't allow you to do this before. It's because I didn't have absolute rights at that time, and I was afraid that someone would say something about you. But now it's different, I'm a man of my word, and no one dares to talk about what I say behind my back. So that no one will dare to hurt you. ”

"So, is that what Your Majesty means by calling me a 'noble'?"

The forehead was slightly tight, and the clear eyes were slowly raised, Chai Xuan did not look at Cao Pi, but cast his eyes on the beating fire shadow not far away. Since it was to tie her to himself, why make up such a nice reason.

"That being the case, why didn't Your Majesty directly crown me as the queen, so that no one would bully me." Chai Xuan, whose eyes were cold, looked back at Cao Pi, who looked a little flustered, and smiled disdainfully.

Staring at the slightly cold eyes, Cao Pi's eyebrows tightened. "But you have no heirs and are not a prominent family, and the time you have come to me is too short, if you are hastily named the queen, you will be ruined."

Asking such words directly in front of the Son of Heaven is a blessing that the Nine Clans have not been punished, but I didn't expect Cao Pi to explain to himself very seriously.

"Chai Xuan said such a rebellious thing, isn't Your Majesty angry?"

Originally, I just wanted to provoke Cao Pi, but it seemed that something backfired. Chai Xuan opened a pair of apricot eyes in a panic, staring at the emperor in front of him for some reason.

The thin lips stretched slightly, and a smile was suppressed. "As long as you are willing to stay with me, I can give you whatever you want." What I'm really afraid of is that I want to give it, but Chai Xuan doesn't want it.

"Didn't I say last time that I wanted to accompany you to practice calligraphy, I ordered someone to bring a good inkstone." As soon as the voice turned, it was as warm as jade. Cao Pi raised his voice to summon Cao Shu in, put a finely carved square inkstone on the table, and then withdrew.

"Come~" The magnetic voice is soft, and the eyes are smiling. Cao Pi raised his arm to shake Chai Xuan's hand, but Chai Xuan deliberately avoided it. Staring at Chai Xuan, who was still so alienated from him, his heart was very uncomfortable for a while.

Cao Pi's eyes were slightly gloomy, but they instantly turned into a gentle smile, "Don't worry, I won't do anything to you, I promised you, and I will never break my word." ”

Cao Pi smiled lightly, turned around and walked to the edge of the table, and slowly spread the thin cloth on the table. "If you don't come, how can I teach you?"

Looking at Cao Pi, who was grinding unhurriedly, if he really opened himself, he didn't know how long he would have to delay. "This practice is not something that can be practiced in a while, Your Majesty ......"

"It's okay, let's learn something simple today. In the future, I can always teach you seven or eight points. Cao Pi smiled slightly.

The ink has been ground and the pen is wet, Cao Pi looked at Chai Xuan straight across the brush. Looking at the scene in front of her, Chai Xuan was a little difficult to refuse. After all, he really wanted to learn some words, and if he really annoyed him if he refused strongly, it would not do him any good.

With clear eyes sinking slightly, Chai Xuan breathed lightly, stepped forward, and slowly took the pen in Cao Pi's hand.

"Just your name first! Lift the pen with heavy elbows, and ...... hands should be calm" Runyu said softly, like a warm spring breeze, gently gliding over Chai Xuan's ears. Xiu held his hand lightly and wrapped the pen in the palm of his hand.

The warmth and strength coming from the back of his hand couldn't help but make Chai Xuan's heart tighten. The last time someone taught himself like this, it was when he was in the military camp, when Zhao Yun taught himself to practice archery.

The force on his arm tightened, and the commander wrote two words smoothly with the pen in his hand. But look at the two words that came out of the pen, vigorous and powerful, horizontal and vertical, and there is nothing like it was drawn from under his own hands.

"Didn't Your Majesty say write my name?" Chai Xuan puffed out her cheeks slightly, staring at the big characters that had just been written. Although I don't know how to write this Han Li, the word 'Cao Pi' is really easy to recognize.

His eyes were slightly slanted, looking at Chai Xuan, who was flushed, and the corners of his lips were slightly spread, "Okay, write your name." This ridiculous tone is like coaxing a child with a temper, and the corners of his eyes and eyebrows are doting.

Lightly touched the thick ink, waved the pen, and the very neat word "Chai Xuan" jumped on the paper. Looking at the vigorous and powerful two big characters, this is the first time in a long time that I have seen my name written so beautifully.

Without waiting for Chai Xuan to react, he pressed his big hand and began to move again. This time, he wrote two lines of words freely, each stroke was like painting, and the temperature on the back of his hand began to seep into Chai Xuan's heart little by little, and the whole person began to feel a little hot. Looking at the two sentences on the paper, Chai Xuan was a little confused.

"Xuan'er, this is what you told me, but remember." The ink stopped, and Cao Pi slowly lifted the pen.

Looking at the two lines of ink with a slight calmness, Chai Xuan could still recognize a few words more or less, and she could tell which sentence it was when she was half-guessing and half-thinking.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for teaching Chai Xuan to practice calligraphy, these words you taught today are enough for Chai Xuan to practice for a few days." Chai Xuan pulled out of front of the table, and Ying Ying bowed.

At the beginning, I had never seen it as a way to get out, but I didn't expect it to bury so much hope in Cao Pi's heart. He refused again and again, Cao Pi still didn't let him go, did he really believe that sentence.

"I know~" Jian Mei pressed lightly, and there was a faint sense of loss on his forehead. His eyes were half-drooping, and Chong Chai Xuan smiled faintly and said, "Okay, you go and rest first." I'm not leaving tonight, but don't worry, I still have things to do, and I won't think anything wrong of you. ”

Not leaving? What kind of idea is this Cao Pi playing?

Chai Xuanliu's eyebrows tightened, and she looked at Cao Pi who continued to grind with a puzzled expression, "Your Majesty, ...... you" Although he was skeptical of Cao Pi's words, Cao Pi said so sincerely, he said that he would not do anything to himself, how could he be embarrassed to drive people away.

"Go and rest, I won't disturb your dreams, don't worry." Looking at Chai Xuan, who was hesitant to stay in place, Cao Pi's thin lips smiled lightly, exuding a faint gentleness.

After thinking about it a few times, Chai Xuan still decided to go back to bed. It's a big deal to sleep in clothes, even if Cao Pi really has any misdeeds, he can find out in time.

"Since that's the case, then Chai Xuan won't bother Your Majesty." Chai Xuan bowed down and walked into the hall.

Chai Xuan, who was lying on the soft couch, covered herself tightly, looked sideways at the slightly flickering fire in front of the table, and didn't feel sleepy at all. Turning over and over, my mind was full of thinking about what Cao Pi wrote in front of the table, and what he planned to do if he stayed here.

The dim light and shadow gradually brought out a strong sense of sleep. Chai Xuanxing's eyes narrowed more and more tightly on the bed, and the wisps of firelight began to slowly diverge, turning into a halo and turning into darkness......

Cao Pi, who was busy, walked gently to the side of the bed, his eyes were warm, and he looked at Chai Xuan, who was already asleep on his feet. The slightly shrunken body fell with his breathing, like a cute little milk cat.

"Xuan'er, you still haven't changed at all!" The corners of his mouth were slightly raised, and he smiled. Cao Pi gently stepped forward to help Chai Xuan change her sleeping position, and put the long quilt back on her.

Gazing, he turned around and extinguished all the remaining lights, and the room became dark in an instant. The silver glow through the screen window seemed to spread a light layer of frost in the room, shining.

The moon is in the sky, the beauty is like a dream, who is infatuated, and it is difficult to bear the similarity......

"Your Majesty, why didn't you tell your nobleman about the things you had done for her?"

Cao Shu looked at Cao Pi with a little distress, and there was a slight sadness in his tone.

"As long as she's willing to stay by my side, she doesn't care if she knows me or not. As long as I can see her every day and know that she is, I will be satisfied. Gazing at the cold moon, the starry eyes were slightly tearful.

He didn't know when this feeling started, but the only thing he was sure of was that when he heard Chai Xuan's news that day, he was really excited, that kind of indescribable excitement. I only know that this time absolutely, absolutely will not let go again.
