She suddenly remembered that she saw her brother outside the Xuanshi Palace for the first time after entering the palace. He said respectfully in front of the palace people: "I have met the Queen."

When Yu Xiuyun saw that she wanted to step forward to help him, he motioned her not to move. After saluting, he said gently: "Wanwan, this is a necessary etiquette in front of others, otherwise ministers will say that the queen indulges her relatives."

She stared at the familiar figure until Marquis Pingyang stood up, then lowered her eyelashes.

After the Huangmen played drums and the ceremony ended, Pei Zhi noticed a layer of cold sweat on the forehead of the woman beside him. He covered her chest and gasped. He quickly carried the woman into the palace and ordered the imperial doctor to be sent.

He frowned and thought about the pulse case he had read before. Yu Tingwan clearly had no heartache.

"I'm fine."

"You're like this, how can you still call her innocent?" Pei Zhi's face was so ugly that when the imperial doctor came, he thought something serious had happened to the queen. After checking her pulse, her expression was subtle and he hesitated to speak.

"What kind of disease is it?" The emperor in black uniform finally spoke, with a trace of imperceptible panic in his tone.

"My queen's health is fine, but her mood is not feeling well." The imperial doctor hesitated a little, then said bravely: "It's like depression."

"nonsense."

Pei Zhi's expression suddenly became gloomy. Yu Tingwan had been staying with him all day long these days, and there was no displeasure on his face as before.

He would grant her whatever she asked for, so how could she feel unhappy.

Before he could continue, the woman lying in his arms quietly said: "Did the imperial doctor make a mistake?"

The imperial physician was afraid that His Majesty would think that he had diagnosed the wrong disease and separated the head and neck, so he explained the symptoms of depression in detail to His Majesty, who was contemplating.

The more Pei Zhi listened, the greener his face turned.

Yu Tingwan had eaten less recently and told him that it was because the weather was getting hotter and he really lost his appetite.

I slept lightly at night, and occasionally woke up. I told him that I had dreamed about something that happened some time ago, and I was scared. He comforted me for a while.

After the imperial doctor resigned, Pei Zhi looked calm and unperturbed. After returning to Jiaofang Hall with the person in his arms, he asked in a low voice: "When you were with me Wan Wan, were you all pretending to be happy?"

"Are you in a bad mood because you're with me?"

He placed the woman in his arms on the couch and took off the complicated phoenix robe for her while talking, and finally stared at the woman with only the middle coat and her hair disheveled.

Seeing her lips slightly open and the word "yes" floating out, Pei Zhi breathed heavily, clasped his fingers on her shoulders, and closed his eyes, as if he was extremely puzzled.

"Since you like me, why is it so painful to be with me?"

He looked at Yu Tingwan steadily and whispered: "Wanwan, I am also very happy with you, so as long as I see you, I will be extremely happy, aren't you?"

"I don't mean to press you." Pei Zhi lowered his eyelashes and gently wiped away the tears on her cheeks with his fingertips. His voice was a little hoarse, "I just don't understand. Your heart is more difficult to understand than the policy of governing the country."

"Since you don't want to see me, I won't come to the harem these days." After leaving Jiaofang Hall, he turned back again, stood outside the inner hall, and lightly knocked on the emerald screen, "Whenever you want to see me, send Please go to Xuanshi Palace and say something."

Yu Tingwan sat on the couch and saw the figure behind the screen stopping for a long time, and then a word came from a long while.

"Wanwan, I don't want to wait too long."

She thought that "too long" that Pei Zhi meant was at least a month, but she didn't expect that it was not even seven days.

Before going to bed, she saw a palace servant changing the spices in the Boshan stove, and asked in a low voice: "Is this the soothing incense given by the imperial doctor?"

"Go back to your Majesty, it's from the Imperial Medical Office." The palace lady was still young and had clear eyes, obviously telling the truth.

"Have you replaced it with a new one?" Yu Tingwan said softly, looking into the palace maid's eyes, "I remember that the previous incense was not this color."

"Your Majesty, I was replaced three days ago."

"Did His Majesty come last night?"

She suddenly asked, and the palace man was stunned for a moment, then said cautiously: "Your Majesty has not set foot in the harem in the past few days."

Yu Tingwan lowered his eyes and looked at the Boshan stove, sighing softly: "Go ahead and change it."

After she got on the bed, she felt that the fragrance filled the air, and her eyelids were as heavy as a thousand pounds. She didn't wake up until after she fell asleep, and she stayed like this for more than half a month.

If he noticed that the queen looked a little better, he happily said while combing her hair: "It would be better if Your Majesty doesn't come next month."

In the Jiaofang Palace, everyone else saw that His Majesty was unwilling to set foot in the harem, and they were worried that the Queen would fall out of favor. Only Changyu hoped that His Majesty would not come.

She felt that when His Majesty was still the king of Wei, it would be bad for him to come to Yilan Palace. Now that he refuses to come to the harem, the empress not only has a much healthier pulse, but also has time to teach her painting skills.

Yu Tingwan saw the expression of the girl behind him through the bronze mirror, and couldn't help laughing. After a while, he suddenly asked: "Ruyi, have you heard anything at night these days?"

"Never."

Yu Tingwan was silent. Thinking about it carefully, according to his skills, no one would be able to detect him entering the palace late at night. Besides, who knew that the emperor would sneak into the inner palace every night like a thief.

That night, when she saw the palace servants changing spices again, Yu Tingwan looked at her quietly. Before going to bed, she retreated to everyone in the inner hall. She did not hesitate to pour the water from the teacup in her hand onto the Boshan stove where the white mist was rising. .

There was already a faint special fragrance in the hall. When she closed her eyes, she noticed that her sleepiness was not as strong as usual. She suddenly heard a noise late at night and was half asleep, but could not raise her eyelids.

After the curtain was lifted, Yu Tingwan felt her cheek being gently caressed. After a moment, someone picked her up, took off her clothes, and covered her body with delicate kisses like heavy winter snow.

About a quarter of an hour later, the man didn't do anything else, but took advantage of the moonlight to put on her pajamas, then got on the bed and hugged her quietly.

Yu Tingwan froze. She found that her pajamas were on inside out early this morning, and thought that Pei Zhi had done something outrageous while she was sleeping.

"Wanwan?" Pei Zhi noticed something was wrong. After the person in his arms fell asleep, he would unconsciously wrap around him. He couldn't move no matter what today.

Seeing that Yu Tingwan didn't say anything, he thought he was overthinking it, so he hugged her tighter and kissed her forehead.

The man left before dawn. Before leaving, he glanced at the Boshan stove. He became a little suspicious. He leaned over and touched the warm jade floor tiles under the stove. His fingertips were obviously wet.

He turned to look at the curtain and froze for a moment. He returned to the back of Xuanshi Hall and waited for Yu Tingwan Xingshi to interrogate him.

As a result, no one from Jiaofang Palace came even once until midnight.

He couldn't help but walked into the Jiaofang Hall again. The incense in the Boshan stove had long been burned out, and the curtains were not hanging down. He could clearly see the person lying on the couch.

"Late night?"

Pei Zhi sat by the couch, thinking that she had already ordered someone to change the incense after seeing through him, and was just pretending to sleep at the moment.

He touched Yu Tingwan's cheek with his palm, and after getting on the bed, he gently wrapped his arms around her waist, waiting for her to question.

A quarter of an hour later, there was no movement, and another quarter of an hour later, still nothing.

Under the faint moonlight, he stared at Chi Chi's face nearby, and noticed that the woman's slender wrist was slowly hooking up his neck, her breathing was even and shallow, and she was obviously sleeping deeply.

The joy in his heart suddenly overflowed, and Pei Zhi wondered whether Yu Tingwan's tacit consent to him coming every night.

After he goes to court tomorrow, he may come to Jiaofang Palace.
