MTL - The Fugitive White Moonlight of a Powerful Minister-Chapter 133 kiss one tell you
The Kongming lanterns all over the mountains and plains reflect the entire Tianchi Mountain almost unreal.
Wen Ning looked up and saw that Pei You's eyes seemed to be dotted with countless lights. In such a dark night, the usual darkness in his eyes seemed to be dispelled by the star-like candle.
She had never seen such a dazzling light in his eyes.
As he approached, the light was fragmented, surging with emotions that she couldn't see clearly, rushing toward her face.
Almost subconsciously, Wen Ning took a step back.
Pei You also paused when he bent down.
Wen Ning watched Pei You approaching suddenly, then paused suddenly, then squinted her eyes, and suppressed the sudden rapid heartbeat: "What...what's wrong..."
She was not used to looking at Pei You at such a close distance, so she took two steps back and touched the corner of her lips: "I...didn't I wipe my mouth clean..."
Pei You: "..."
"Oh, you're blocking me from looking at the light!" Wen Ning waved her small hand and pushed Pei You away, "Let's go to the lake! It must be more beautiful!"
Holding up the skirt, he ran forward.
Tsk, really puzzled.
Pei You squinted at the little girl running forward excitedly, put away the hand that almost caught her just now, and followed her up.
The two stayed in Tianshan Lake for half an hour before riding back to the city.
Wen Ning was still sitting in front of Pei You, it was late at night, and the sky was colder than when she just left the city.
She already had a fox fur, and curled up in Pei You's fox fur, she didn't feel cold. Pei You didn't gallop like he did when he came here, and only occasionally held the horse's belly to let the horse walk slowly.
Wen Ning hadn't gotten away from the excitement just now, talking happily with Pei You all the way.
"How did you come up with the idea of releasing Kongming lanterns tonight?"
"Isn't it Chinese New Year?"
"Your Lingnan New Year's custom is to put Kongming lanterns?"
"... yes."
"The New Year's Eve in Lingnan, isn't it full of Kongming lanterns?"
"..."
"What else would you do during the Chinese New Year?"
The sound of horseshoes is not harsh in the silent night. Pei You was silent for a while, and then said slowly: "Cut window grilles, write pairs, make lanterns, and watch the new year. In the early morning of this day, my mother will cook a bowl of glutinous rice balls, which means reunion, and my father will prepare firecrackers. Once the midnight is over, we Let's set off firecrackers in the yard together with him to drive away the Nian beast and get rid of evil spirits."
Pei You's voice was calm, without emotion. But as soon as Wen Ning heard it, he knew that the "mother" and "father" in his mouth were referring to the Wang couple.
She couldn't help sitting up straight, looking back at him.
The snow in the capital stopped long ago, and even the moon showed its face from behind the clouds, illuminating the freshly fallen snow white. Pei You's face disappeared from the fire just now, and returned to that cold and calm look. From her perspective, the thin chin was raised slightly, showing even more aloofness.
"Pei You, actually..." Wen Ning couldn't help but swallowed the rest of the words.
Not possible.
Don't be impulsive, she hasn't figured out what to say yet.
"Actually what?" Pei You bowed his head.
"Actually..." Wen Ning blinked, "How did you learn to ride a horse, and how did you master martial arts?"
She has been curious about this for a long time.
Pei You is a scholar, the Wang family is poor, and he has spent all his money to support his studies, so it is impossible to find a master for him to teach him martial arts.
But Pei You knew it clearly, maybe not as strong as Tu Bai, but he did learn martial arts.
Pei You lowered his eyes, looked at the curious Wen Ning, and raised his eyebrows: "Want to know?"
Wen Ning nodded with her face up.
Kiss one and tell you.
"Cough..." Pei You covered her lips with her fist, coughed lowly, and looked away.
Wen Ning tilted her head, staring at Pei You suspiciously.
What kind of expression is this on his face... A little bit of embarrassment appeared on his cold face just now.
Is this... shy?
"what's on your mind…?"
"Drive!"
Without waiting for Wen Ning's question to finish, Pei You tightened the reins, clamped the horse's belly, and the horse galloped forward.
-
Wen Ning couldn't tell when it started, but the relationship between her and Pei You somehow became peaceful.
He no longer finds fault with her everywhere, confronts her, and is even quite talkative sometimes. As for her, she is not such an ignorant person. After all, the two of them are on the same boat. As a couple on three-year leave, life is hard for anyone who confronts each other every day.
The two lived in the same room, Wen Ning thought that there would be a lot of discomfort, so she planned to make a three-pronged agreement with him, and even asked Linglan to sew a super long pillow with cotton, planning to lay it between the two of them, so as not to be embarrassed together.
Unexpectedly, on the first day of using it, he threw it on the ground in disgust, saying "it's in the way".
What happened to him?
Wen Ning looked at the pitiful pillow on the ground, and almost had a seizure.
People explained: "I don't want to compete with a pillow for the quilt yet."
Although the bed in the Duke’s Mansion is much larger, the quilts are all the same size, which is just enough for two people, and if there is a pillow in the middle...
Wen Ning suppressed her dissatisfaction, and decided to observe for a few days before talking.
I don't want to have no pillow, but the two of them live in peace. Pei You has accumulated a lot of official duties, and every day she gets up before she wakes up, and when she sleeps, he is still working in front of the desk.
So Wen Ning didn't mention it again.
There is nothing wrong with sleeping together, and roommates are also fine. Although at home during the New Year's Eve, Pei You spent most of the time dealing with official documents in Qinghui Hall, and he was used to eating together when he was in Jiangnan.
So Wen Ning quickly accepted this change.
It's just that Pei You is busy this New Year's Eve, so she can't live well.
The eldest princess stays behind closed doors. During the New Year's Eve, when people come and go in the Duke's mansion, she has to attend the reception with Pei You. Even occasionally when Pei You goes to the Ministry of Industry, she has to go out alone to support the scene.
At first, she thought that she could go back to Wenfu to catch up with everyone on New Year's Day, but in fact, on the second day of junior high school, she left in a hurry without even sitting on the bench in Wenfu.
The Duke’s Mansion wants visitors, so it’s impossible to let them go.
After being so busy until the seventh day of the Lunar New Year, I can finally breathe a sigh of relief.
On the eighth day of the Lunar New Year, all the officials were reinstated, and finally no one sent invitations, and Pei You's rest was over, and he was going to be on duty.
Although these days he is dealing with official documents whenever he has free time, he always goes to the Ministry of Industry one or two hours a day. But officially the value is different again.
Up value also means going up.
Wen Ning had things in her mind, so she didn't sleep as deeply as usual that day. She woke up when she noticed the movement in the room, and when she opened her eyes, it turned out that Pei You had packed up and was about to go out.
"Wait!" Wen Ning glanced at his upright and solemn court clothes, and quickly got up from the bed.
He found a coat and put it on, not even thinking about wearing shoes, and walked towards Pei You's desk with bare feet.
It was still early, and the sky outside was still dark. Pei You obviously didn't expect Wen Ning to wake up so early today. She caught a glimpse of her barefoot, frowning slightly, and was about to say something when she saw something in Wen Ning's hand. The expression on the face suddenly became indifferent.
"Put this on!" What Wen Ning remembers in her heart is the pair of sachets given to them by the empress.
Pei You's sachet has been lying in the box, and Wen Ning put it on the desk before.
But these days the desk is touched every day, but it seems that the sachet has long been forgotten.
Wen Ning thought, after all, it was the Empress who embroidered herself while dragging her sick body, so Her Majesty would know about it. It's fine if Pei You doesn't wear it at home, but on the first day of the new year when he enters the palace today, he should wear it on his body to show his gratitude.
Pei You was expressionless: "No need."
Turn around and leave.
"Eh? Wait!" Wen Ning woke up early for this matter, how could she give up so easily.
She took the sachet and went over: "Look at how delicate and beautiful it is. You wear it into the palace today. The empress will be happy if she knows about it."
"No need." Pei You still used these two words, and added a sentence, "I have one."
Wen Ning got up when he saw that he was still wearing the sachet she gave him, and immediately said: "How can it be the same? How can my craftsmanship be comparable to that of the empress?"
"Besides, this sachet is a pair. You and I wear it at the same time. It can not only highlight the relationship between you and me, but also show the mighty grace of the emperor."
Wen Ning said, and planned to hang the sachet on Pei You.
"Wen Ning." The voice above her head was a bit cool, "I said no."
Wen Ning looked up, and saw that Pei You's eyes were so pale that they were almost distant, and her lips were slightly pursed, showing a sharp coldness.
She hadn't seen Pei You's expression for a long time, and she was a little dazed immediately.
Pei You didn't look at her any more, and turned to leave.
Wen Ning reacted, put the sachet back into the box, and put it back on his desk.
Just... what a dog temper!
If she didn't want to make the empress happy, she wouldn't want to take care of his affairs!
Be kind and act like a donkey!
Lie back on the bed and go to sleep again.
-
After finally getting through the New Year's Eve, Wen Ning thought that he could do some things on his own today, but before he returned to the cage, he was urged to get up by Ling Lan.
There are many affairs in the house that need to be finished, and Nanny Cui is waiting for her outside Qinghui Hall.
Wen Ning had no choice but to get up, and followed Nanny Cui to handle all the affairs.
How many gifts were received during the New Year’s festival, how and when to return them; how much was spent during the New Year’s festival, where was it used, whether the account books were clear...
After finishing all these tasks, it is already afternoon.
On a winter day, it will be dark before the time limit, and it is impossible to go out again.
Wen Ning simply took advantage of the sun before it set, and basked in the sun in the yard, and let her waist, which had been stretched all day, rest by the way.
Ke Linglan kept babbling in her ear with a small mouth:
"Girl, I heard that my uncle was picked up by someone early this morning, and he got into several books."
"Girl, why do you think there are always people who are against my uncle? The court didn't stipulate that officials are not allowed to go out with their wives to do business. What's there to do? What are you talking about? My uncle neglected his duties for personal reasons and delayed the affairs of the Ministry of Industry." !"
"If Your Majesty didn't give my uncle such official duties, it's impossible for my uncle to have stayed in the south of the Yangtze River for four months? These days, my uncle has not had a good New Year's Day, and he has only dealt with the affairs of the Ministry of Industry. How can I blame my uncle?"
"Are you talking about my son-in-law forming a party for private interests? My son-in-law has the favor of His Majesty and the support of the eldest princess. Do you need to form a party for selfishness?"
Wen Ning didn't want to hear about Pei You at all, so if he was on the paper, he would be on the paper, and he was less involved?
Linglan continued: "Hey, the eldest princess is still angry with my uncle. The nuns said that the news will arrive at Fuquyuan at noon, but the eldest princess has not moved yet."
"Girl, do you think my uncle will be fine?"
What can he do? It would be good for him not to dig a hole and let others fall to his death.
Wen Ning turned over.
Linglan realized something was wrong: "Girl, you don't seem to be very happy today?"
What is there to be happy about?
Who would be happy to be slapped in the face early in the morning?
Wen Ning closed her eyes.
Linglan was quiet now, and went to the room to get a thin blanket to cover her.
At this time, the Ministry of Industry is about to go down.
Gu Fei prepared the carriage early, since he came back from Jiangnan, no matter how busy his family is, he will definitely be on duty on time.
But today, probably in the morning, there were a lot of papers for him. He came out of the Ministry of Industry and entered the palace again.
By coming out of the palace, it was already dark.
Since the crown prince had dinner in Qinghui Hall, he no longer had to ask stupid questions like whether to go back to the mansion or to the restaurant. As soon as Pei You got into the carriage, he whipped the horse and went straight back to the mansion.
When the carriage was driving on Chang'an Avenue, Pei You suddenly called to stop.
"My lord, don't you want to go back home?" Gu Fei parked the carriage on the side of the road where no one would be disturbed, and followed Pei You.
Although it was getting late, it was the right time to rush back at Qinghui Hall for dinner.
Pei You was wearing an official uniform, and it was quite eye-catching when he got off the carriage. But he didn't care about it, and walked to the door of a shop with his usual expression.
Gu Fei glanced sideways, Wan Fangzhai.
Looks like a... pastry shop?
At this hour, Chang'an Street was quite lively, Gu Fei tried to block the sizing eyes, and asked again: "My lord, don't you want to go back home?"
Pei You's brows and eyes were light, and he lowered his head and turned the white jade wrench on his thumb: "I probably made my wife angry this morning."
Made Madam angry?
Have you been expelled from Qinghui Hall, so you are not going back home? !
"Then... what should I do then?" Gu Fei asked anxiously.
Pei You glanced at him speechlessly.
What else can I do?
If you marry the one who comes home by yourself, pamper him.
After holding one hand, he raised his foot and entered Wanfangzhai.
