Yan Wen didn't respond immediately.

Instead, he looked at her quietly for a long time, and then he let out a faint hum from his nose, and his stopped footsteps moved again, suddenly approaching her.

He was tall and tall, Shen Ruopian was against the threshold, and there was no way to retreat, almost as if he was encircled in his arms.

In front of Shen Ruolian was his solid chest, resolute, strong, and the warm breath smeared on her face through the elegant white spring shirt.

Her face burned unconsciously, her heartbeat intensified, and her blood seemed to flow faster, and her whole body was numb.

She felt that he seemed to be a little different today, and ...... Didn't he leave overnight yesterday?

Shen Ruolian's heart suddenly felt a little strange, she bit the soft flesh on the inside of her mouth, hesitated, and planned to speak first.

"Temple...... Brother Huang, you're not—"

"You scratched Lonely." Yan Wen interrupted her.

Shen Ruolian was stunned for a moment, and looked up at him for some reason.

Yan Wen's expression was calm, his thin eyelids pressed down, and Shen Ruolian saw a panicked self in his amber pupils.

His voice was still as clear as ever, but as he listened closely, there was a bit of emotion in his tone that was different from usual...... It's very oppressive.

"That night, you scratched Lonely."

After he said this unhurriedly, he closed his mouth and looked at her like water.

Shen Ruolian looked up at him with a small face, and quickly went through the previous events in her mind, and at this moment she was suddenly very glad that her little brain melon did not hold her back at this time.

After a few moments, it dawned on her that he was talking about scratching him that night when she threw him out.

Shen Ruolian's expression changed suddenly, and her little pink face suddenly changed color, and her expression was both flustered and guilty.

She bit her lip at a loss and whispered:

"Huh? I—I didn't mean to, I don't know—"

She didn't know that she had inadvertently scratched him when she pushed him.

Now listening to him say this, she can suddenly understand why he has not come to see her for so many days, and why he has looked at her differently than before.

It turned out that he was angry with her.

Also, quarrel and anger, but she shouldn't hurt him, he is the prince, the future king, his body is golden and noble, how can he be hurt by her.

If this matter is said to be small, it is the following offense, if it is said to be big, it hurts the dragon's body, and if it is harmful to the country's fortune, how can it be good.

Especially in the past few years, disasters have continued year after year, and the national fortune is particularly important.

Shen Ruolian's heart became more and more flustered, and the little beautiful thoughts that he had when he approached had already been thrown out of the clouds.

She wrung her handkerchief, and became more and more nervous:

"I—I really didn't mean to-"

Shen Ruolian's eyes began to redden, her eyes were full of moisture, and her words were nasal, obviously frightened by his words.

Suddenly, a soft sigh crossed her ears, and Shen Ruolian felt that the gaze that fell on her face suddenly faded, and then, a bony hand slowly stretched out towards her.

Shen Ruolian was stunned for a moment, and watched the hand approaching in a daze, a little unclear, but he didn't dare to act rashly.

His fingers were white and slender, with well-defined joints, neatly trimmed nails, faint cyan veins faintly visible under his white skin, and a white jade wrench inlaid with sapphires on his thumb.

A very beautiful hand, thin but contains the power of life and death.

The cool, calloused finger went around her left earlobe and landed gently on the skin behind her ear.

Shen Ruolian held her breath almost instantly, and the crazy touch almost caused her to go into cardiac arrest.

She could feel the man's fingertips slowly drifting behind her ears, the cool touch cascading down the thin, sensitive skin and then amplifying the blood that flowed wildly along her body.

The emotions in Shen Ruolian's chest were surging like a river and a sea, her chest rose and fell violently, she was so nervous that her scalp was numb, and her fingers trembled and clutched the hem of her clothes tightly.

"This is it."

The man's fingertips were still wandering, the thin calluses scraping the tender flesh behind the ears, and the cold white jade wrench fingers touched her fiery earlobes from time to time.

Shen Ruolian felt that his voice sounded extremely low and hoarse, like the old grape wine she had drunk last winter.

She felt that she was a little drunk, and her legs were a little crispy, so she pressed the weight of her body against the door frame behind her, her wet eyes open, and the mist was hazy, as if she could cry in the next moment.

"Jianing scratched Lone here."

The man's tone was faint, and he couldn't hear the emotion, but as soon as his words fell, the next moment, an inexplicable emotion suddenly rushed up, Shen Ruolian's nose was sour, and two warm tears suddenly appeared in the corners of his eyes.

The finger that stopped behind the ear paused.

Shen Ruolian was also stunned.

She didn't want to cry, but maybe her emotions were too intense, and many emotions were intertwined and difficult to vent, so she could only turn into tears in the end.

She panicked, embarrassed and embarrassed, sucked the tip of her nose sharply, subconsciously grabbed her sleeve and wiped her tears, and her body took a step back and retreated to the threshold.

There was an ankle-high threshold between the two, which made her feel inexplicably safe.

Without the touch behind her ears, Shen Ruolian's mood eased slightly.

She wiped her tears indiscriminately, sniffed, and her voice was soft and aggrieved, "I really didn't mean to, that temple...... Is the wound healed now? ”

She didn't dare to think about whether his actions had a deep meaning, and she didn't dare to look him in the eyes.

After asking this sentence, she looked down at the tip of her shoes at a loss, and gradually, a sense of confusion suddenly surged in her heart, she not only couldn't understand him, but also couldn't understand her own heart.

She had been so eager to get close to him, but when he touched the back of her ear, she actually felt resistance and fear deep down.

Xu was too strange to her.

Fortunately, the strangeness didn't last long, she heard a chuckle spilling from his throat, and his gentle voice was like a trickle, "Jianing, scared?" ”

Shen Ruolian looked up and saw that his eyes were clear, his smile was gentle, and his clear and elegant appearance was not much different from the past.

She was looked at like this by him, and she was stunned for a long time before she found her thoughts.

She cleared the chaos in her mind, and realized in hindsight that he had just done that to scare her, so that she could have a long memory. So so many of his weird actions are all faked?!

Shen Ruolian, who reacted, suddenly felt angry, is he so scary?!

She was really scared to death by him!

Her eyes were so red that she couldn't pronounce a syllable in her throat, so she could only glare at him fiercely, but she couldn't get angry, she glared again, and then grabbed the door and was about to close it, never wanting to see him again!

If she hadn't, she would have wanted to catch him again.

However, before she could move, there was a sudden sound of footsteps at the door.

She had a pause in her hand, and Yan Wen and Yan Wen looked in the direction of the door.

I saw Pei Ci'an wearing a light blue silver trim straight jacket to come, and when he saw the prince, Fang bypassed the footsteps of the weeping flower door for a moment, and then took a few steps forward to bow to him.

"Your Highness?"

Shen Ruolian breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, and looked at Yan Wen with a little vigilance and smugness, the meaning in her eyes couldn't be more obvious.

- Pei Xiaogongzi came to play with me, the royal brother has every opportunity, go back to the palace quickly.

Yan Wen glanced at the little girl and wanted to laugh.

He turned to face Pei Ci'an, called him to calm down with a gentle voice, and said with a gentle expression:

"Since Pei Qing is here, Gu should also go back, you accompany Jianing to go out for a walk."

As he spoke, he glanced at Shen Ruolian, then turned back to Pei Ci'an and said, "Lonely's sister, I've been bothering Pei Qing to take care of me more recently." ”

Shen Ruolian glared at him a little when he looked over, she felt now that it was better to get married as soon as possible.

Pei Ci'an lowered his head, he didn't see the interaction between the brother and sister, how dare he afford a "tired" from His Royal Highness the Prince, hurriedly bowed down again, and replied respectfully:

"Your Highness, rest assured, it is an honor to take care of Her Royal Highness the Princess."

After speaking, the three of them were silent for a moment.

thought that Yan Wen was going to leave, but he didn't want to, he suddenly turned around and asked Shen Ruolian in a low voice, "Or, you can go back to the palace with Gu today." ”

Shen Ruolian didn't think about it, and shook her head in a panic, "Don't go back, I still have some homework to finish, and I want to go back in a few days." ”

"Whatever you want."

Yan Wen didn't say anything more when he heard this, he stepped down the steps, stood in front of Pei Ci'an for a moment, and then bypassed him and left.

It wasn't until the prince's figure disappeared from the door of the weeping flowers that Pei Ci'an straightened up and walked to Shen Ruolian.

"Look at what I bring—"

As soon as he lifted the oiled paper bag in his hand, he found that Shen Ruolian's eyes were red, and his ears and cheeks were also red, as if he had just cried.

Pei Ci'an's eyes were slightly gloomy, and he walked quickly to her and looked at her, "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has trained you?" ”

Shen Ruolian remembered the scene just now, pouted, and said vaguely: "Sort of." ”

Pei Ci'an knew that although His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was gentle, he was also the most serious and strict, and he thought that the princess's out-of-the-box temperament would often provoke the prince's admonition.

He took out his handkerchief and handed it to her, and soothed:

"Okay, the prince must be for your own good, don't be sad, princess, wipe your tears, and see what I brought you?"

Recently, Pei Ci'an came to Hanshan Temple to look for her every now and then, and Shen Ruolian was already very familiar with him.

This time, seeing the three words "Zhang's Pastry Shop" written on the oil-paper bag he was carrying in his hand, Fang Cai's various emotions were instantly swept away, and he said excitedly:

"Yikes! It's a white jade cake! ”

Since the first time Pei Ci'an brought her white jade cakes, she has been obsessed with this taste, but a few days ago, the owner of Zhang's pastry shop that sold white jade cakes had something at home, and after a few days of closure, she was hungry for this.

Pei Ci'an saw that she was in a better mood, and couldn't help laughing, "Yes, the door only opened today, I bought the first pot, princess try it." ”

Shen Ruolian nodded, returned to the house, and couldn't wait to open the oil paper bag and take a piece out, the soft and slightly sweet taste was sandwiched with a faint milky fragrance, and the touch melted in the mouth.

Shen Ruolian was in a better mood, squinting and enjoying the pastries, happy as a little sparrow.

-

After Yan Wen left, he went down the mountain in a carriage.

Li Fuan sat on the wheels of the car, looking back at the heavy curtain from time to time.

His mind grew more and more confused.

Last night, His Royal Highness had obviously ordered to go down the mountain, but unexpectedly walked halfway up the mountain and ordered to return to Hanshan Temple.

At first, he thought that His Highness had thought of some clues, or suddenly remembered that there was something that had not been interrogated, but after he returned, His Highness locked himself in his room without saying a word and wrote for half the night.

Li Fuan thought that there was finally a major breakthrough in this case, and was thinking about whether to inform Xue Nian in advance, preparing to arrest Tan Yi the next day, and His Royal Highness summoned him in.

When he went in, he saw that the table was covered with rice paper, but there was no clue on the paper, but ...... Scripture.

Then His Highness asked him to take these scriptures and give them to the presiding officer in the middle of the night, and worship them for him.

After doing all this, he obviously felt that His Highness's mood had become much smoother, but what he couldn't figure out was that His Highness was just to write the scriptures in the middle of the night, and he delayed an early pilgrimage in vain?

Thinking of this, Li Fuan couldn't help but glance at the car curtain again, and at this moment, he heard the person inside ask:

"Zhang's Pastry Shop...... DID YOU KNOW? ”

Li Fuan was slightly stunned, knowing that this was for him, and hurriedly replied:

"The old slave doesn't know much, only that it is a dim sum shop in the east of the city, among which the white jade cake is the most famous."

After speaking, after waiting for a long time, a voice came from the curtain, "The weather is good today, so I will reward the ministers of the court and the central government, regardless of their rank, and each person will have a white jade cake from Zhang's pastry shop." ”

Li Fuan and Xue Nian glanced at each other, and they both saw the shock in each other's eyes.

After a pause, Li Fuan hesitated and replied, "...... Yes".

When Pei Ci'an brought the white jade cake to Shen Ruolian, he didn't know that after returning in the evening, all the officials in the capital ate the white jade cake, especially when he was specially given a portion at home.

Father-in-law Shun, who rewarded the white jade cake, said that the prince said that this extra part was because Pei Xiaogongzi took care of the princess.
