The beauty is delicate and soft, and he madly criticizes the powerful officials for taking her as th

"Birthday banquet?" Yu Tingwan was stunned for a moment, "Should I wear a curtain?"

"How can you eat with your face covered?" Pei Zhi laughed, "Of course you don't have to. From that day on, you don't have to wear a curtain in Chang'an."

Yu Tingwan looked a little embarrassed: "Don't everyone else know about it?"

"What do you know?" Pei Zhi glanced at her lowered eyelashes, "Do you know that I forcibly married a noble concubine?"

Seeing the worried look on the woman beside him, he suddenly said, "They don't dare to say it openly, but I want to put this matter out in the open."

"Ah?" Yu Tingwan was startled and looked up at him.

"Is it possible that you want me to hide you in my house for the rest of your life?" Pei Zhi leaned closer to her, stared into her eyes and said, "If Wan Wan thinks like this, it's hard to refuse such kindness. How can I, a husband, refuse?"

Yu Tingwan's face turned red, and she turned her face away and said, "Did I ever say that? You think it yourself."

"You really misunderstood me that night." Pei Zhi smiled, "I only said I would let you be by my side, but I didn't say I wouldn't let you see anyone."

"The identity of Zhang Yushu's adopted daughter is not enough. When everyone knows that Princess Wei is the daughter of Yu Gongming and the sister of Yu Xiuyun, I will give Marquis Pingyang a good job."

His voice was gentle and unhurried, "The more noble the Pingyang Marquis Mansion is, the more others will know that I love you and respect you, and there will no longer be that kind of collision Wan Wan."

Yu Tingwan moved her lips, lowered her head and said, "You want to do errands for your brother because of me?"

"What else?" Pei Zhi whispered: "If he were not your brother, I would definitely order someone to monitor him to prevent him from contacting the old department."

There were not many people that he could be afraid of, Yu Xiuyun was one of them.

Such people must either surrender willingly or be killed.

If he and Yu Tingwan were not brother and sister, with his appearance, Pei Zhi would probably find an opportunity to poison him after treating him politely.

He seemed to have thought of something, so he held her in his arms, raised Yu Tingwan's chin with interest, and said half-jokingly: "Wanwan is really a virtuous person, and she refuses to blow the pillow wind. Let me add five more for Pingyang Marquis." A hundred households can eat."

"My brother may not be willing to be promoted to a noble position because of me." Yu Tingwan said in a low voice.

"But he is already the Marquis of Pingyang, and the edict for him to serve as an official has been prepared."

Chen Xing had already gone to sit next to the coachman. There was no third person next to him. He followed the corner of the woman's mouth in his arms downwards, slowly kissed her neck, and murmured: "How do you want to repay me later?"

Thinking of how he finally calmed down last night and how he behaved like this now, Yu Tingwan tensed up and said nervously: "Don't act recklessly here."

"I just want," he paused, then suddenly smiled at Yu Tingwan's reaction, "I just want you to come to the study to accompany me tomorrow."

"Really just accompanying you?" She didn't quite believe it.

"What else can it be? Just accompany me to paint."

His expression was calm and composed, which made Yu Tingwan feel that he might have overestimated things, so he hesitated and replied: "Okay."

That night, Pei Zhi was lying on the couch. As he had said before, he told Yu Tingwan to have a good rest for a few days. He hugged her peacefully without any movement.

Yu Tingwan was about to fall asleep when his voice suddenly sounded in her ears, which was also mixed with a bit of unwillingness.

"Is it really that uncomfortable before?"

She was a little unhappy when she was suddenly disturbed. She gave a perfunctory "hmm" and was extremely unhappy, as if something extremely unpleasant had been mentioned.

When she woke up, Pei Zhi had not yet gone to court, and the maid was tying her hair and said, "The Lord said before he left that after breakfast, the princess can go to the study to wait for him."

Yu Tingwan suddenly remembered her promise yesterday, and went to the front yard after breakfast. King Wei's study was always guarded by dragon-slaying guards, but she felt as if she was in a deserted place, and went straight to the inner room.

Only Chi Ying and Ying Yue in the Dragon Slaying Guard were qualified to enter the inner room, and Chen Xing could only guard outside.

Yu Tingwan was bored all alone and did not dare to touch his things, lest the wordless paper be specially processed information.

After waiting for a while, she sat on Pei Zhi's chair. Feeling a little sleepy, she rested her face on her hands and moved her head little by little.

"She's so sleepy, I'll order someone to put a imperial concubine's couch here tomorrow."

Hearing the voice, Yu Tingwan suddenly woke up. Pei Zhi, who had not yet changed out of his official uniform, looked at her with a smile.

"I'm not sleepy, I'm just a little anxious waiting." She realized that she had taken a seat and stood up quickly.

Pei Zhi was a little surprised, "Aren't you interested in so many things in the darkroom?"

"How can I look through your collection without you?"

"If Wan Wan's words get out, others will say that King Wei is stingy and refuses to let the princess touch the things he owns." He smiled and said: "It's just some dead things. Don't turn them over. Even if you burn them, it won't matter. event."

"How could it be burned?" Yu Tingwan opened her eyes wide, "That's a treasure."

The smile on Pei Zhi's lips remained unchanged, "King You of Zhou is beaconing and playing with the princes for his beauty. He only burns a few paintings every night, so it's nothing."

"You usually pretend to be brilliant and advocating Confucianism and Legalism outside, which makes the people who benefit from you say that you are King Wen." Yu Tingwan couldn't help but said: "There is a god three feet above your head, why don't you avoid it? Are you joking about such a foolish king in private?"

She didn't know how to burn those paintings, because Pei Zhi had no idea. She said with a little annoyance: "You want to be King Zhou You, but I don't want to be Bao Si. You can find someone else to accompany you." ”

Seeing that she was annoyed, Pei Zhi quickly put his arms around her and said, "It's my fault. Since you like those things, you won't joke about them in the future."

Yu Tingwan sat in his arms. When she wanted to get up, she was held down by her waist and asked, "Don't you want to paint? How can you paint like this?"

She glanced at the table in front of her. There was no ink, various colors of paint, or even paper to draw on.

A bad premonition suddenly crossed my mind.

"Where do you want to paint?"

Her voice was trembling, but Pei Zhi took out a porcelain jar. The inside looked like cinnabar, but the texture was different.

"what is this?"

Yu Tingwan saw Pei Zhi dip his pen into the red paint and quickly held his hand.

"The largest caravan from the Central Plains to the Western Regions belongs to the Pei family." Pei Zhi looked at the tip of his pen that was stained with crimson. "Before the wedding, they sent many congratulatory gifts, and there was a box of something that really touched my heart."

When Yu Tingwan heard that he mentioned the wedding, his eyelids jumped, "What is it?"

"Nothing, except this paint, it's all boring." Seeing Yu Tingwan's nervousness, he comforted him: "This paint is used by a girl from a small country in the Western Region when she gets married. It won't hurt if you apply patterns on your arms."

Finally understanding his intention, Yu Tingwan interrupted him and said: "The hair and skin of your body are protected by your parents, how can you smear it on it at will?"

"It will fade away in half a month at most."

As Pei Zhi said this, he stretched out his hand to open her clothes, revealing a small piece of fair skin.

"I don't want it." Yu Tingwan became angry and said with tears in her eyes: "I know you don't know how to do anything serious. If you like it, why don't you paint it on yourself?"

"Why are you crying?" He reached out to brush away the tears from the corners of the eyes of the woman in his arms, and coaxed her in a low voice, "If you think it's unfair, just draw one on me too."

After all, he just refused to give up his original idea. Seeing him like this, Yu Tingwan turned his face and said, "Prisoners and objects only leave marks on them. Do you think everyone is the same as you and would do such a thing? You Throw away this can of paint."

"I will do as you are told." Pei Zhi held up her clothes, ordered someone to come in and take away the can of paint, touched her cheek, and said warmly: "You rejected me earlier and you knew how to find a reason, but now you are more direct. "

Yu Tingwan looked into his eyes and asked, "In that case, just throw away the paint. Do you still have it?"

"There is another can." Pei Zhi explained: "Giving wedding gifts naturally comes in pairs. After all, these things are other people's wishes. It's not good to throw them all away. I won't use them in the future."

Yu Tingwan lowered his eyes and thought for a moment, but said no more.

"Today is the same as last time, just stay with me." Pei Zhi opened the darkroom, "You can use whatever is inside as you wish."
