The prince is no longer a man

Pei Rong put his hand on Duan Jingxun's chest, and pushed it away, blushing: "I won't..."

Duan Jingxun held Pei Rong's wrist and pressed it back: "Are you sure?"

Pei Rong: "..."

Duan Jingxun continued: "Can you bear it?"

Pei Rong couldn't bear it anymore, and pulled out his hand: "You... why are you talking all this!"

With a smile on the corner of Duan Jingxun's mouth, he held Pei Rong's hand in his palm and kissed it on his lips.

What Pei Rong originally wanted to avoid was the look in the eyes of Duan Jingxun, but after all, he didn't pull out his hand and let the other party hold it.

I heard Duan Jingxun say again: "I suddenly remembered that you haven't fulfilled something you promised me."

"What's the matter?" Pei Rong asked.

"What did your cousin call me back then, did you forget?"

Pei Rong: "..."

He remembered, big ice cube.

At that time, he dealt with Duan Jingxun, saying that he would give him a suitable one in the future, but he never really thought that Duan Jingxun would come to ask about it.

At this moment, Pei Rong couldn't think of a more suitable title for Duan Jingxun besides "Prince".

Duan Jingxun frowned: "You didn't think about it?"

Pei Rong said with little confidence: "But I don't call you Prince, what do I call you..."

"Apart from Prince and Shizi, don't we have other relationships? Can't you call me other than 'Prince'?"

Pei Rong opened his mouth, and seemed to be having difficulty speaking.

Duan Jingxun leaned over and said in a low voice, "Pei Rong."

Facing Jing Xun's gaze, Pei Rong bit her lip and called out very lightly and timidly: "Jing Xun."

Duan Jingxun curled his lips into a chuckle, gently rubbed Pei Rong's cheek with his fingertips, and replied, "Well, I'm here."

Pei Rong turned his face sideways and pulled down Duan Jingxun's arm: "Show me your hands."

Duan Jingxun remained silent, allowing Pei Rong to pull up the sleeve of his left hand.

On the white skin, there was a hideous scar, which was shocking.

He had already prepared what to see in his heart, but when he saw it, Pei Rong still felt a twitch in his heart.

Gently stroking the raised scar with her fingertips, Pei Rong raised her eyes to look at Duan Jingxun: "This is mine."

This is the scar left by the knife that Duan Jingxun blocked for him.

"Well, it's yours." Duan Jingxun replied in a deep voice.

Pei Rong lowered his eyes and pulled down the sleeves for Duan Jingxun, so he couldn't see the ugly scar. Duan Jingxun was still the perfect prince in everyone's hearts.

"How many things have you done without telling me..."

Duan Jingxun just smiled: "It's all over, isn't it?"

While speaking, Sixi's voice sounded outside the door: "Young Master, Mr. Ning is here."

Pei Rong subconsciously glanced at Duan Jingxun, and found that the other party frowned slightly when he heard Ning Shiqing's name.

He smiled softly at Duan Jingxun, and shouted out the door: "Please come in, Mr. Ning."

Ning Shiqing was still waving his folding fan, smiling coquettishly. When he came in, he saw Duan Jingxun was also in the room, his expression paused, and then his smile deepened: "The prince is here, what a coincidence."

Duan Jingxun said nonchalantly: "Young Master Ning came to Shun Palace recently, but he came very diligently."

Ning Shiqing pretended to be surprised and asked: "Could it be that the prince cares about me so much that he even knows my itinerary so well?"

"Don't play tricks here, I don't care about you."

Ning Shiqing lightly shook the folding fan, glanced at the two of them, and a trace of indistinct meaning flashed in his eyes, and smiled at Pei Rong: "Young Master Rong, congratulations."

Pei Rong glanced at Duan Jingxun shyly, a little embarrassed to admit it, just pursed her lips and smiled.

It's just that Pei Rong didn't know that his appearance was more real than his own admission. Duan Jingxun raised his eyebrows at Ning Shiqing in a demonstrative way, the meaning of which was self-evident.

Ning Shiqing only lowered her eyes and smiled lightly, the smile on the corner of her mouth seemed a little stiff.

Duan Jingxun suddenly thought of something, raised his eyebrows, and asked: "Last time you said that Pei Rong told you an unbelievable thing..."

The voice paused, and Ning Shiqing took over the conversation, and said with a smile: "The prince must already know about it, so why bother to ask me?"

Pei Rong didn't expect Duan Jingxun to still remember this, so he lowered his head resolutely and remained silent.

The conjecture was confirmed, Duan Jingxun snorted coldly, very dissatisfied.

Why did he only find out about Pei Rong after Ning Shiqing!

Duan Jingxun gently squeezed Pei Rong's hand under the table, and said in a low voice, "You'd rather tell Ning Shiqing than tell me!"

Pei Rong quickly raised her eyes, and explained: "I... I was drunk at the time, and I didn't even know..."

The more Pei Rong spoke, the lower his voice was, blinking his eyes, looking at Duan Jingxun very confidently.

Ning Shiqing looked at the affectionate appearance of the two, and the smile in his eyes paused for a moment, but in an instant, the smile reappeared in his eyes, and he stood up: "I wanted to talk to Rong Shizi today, since the prince Here, Ning will not be such a superfluous person, Rong Shizi, leave."

After finishing speaking, he nodded to Pei Rong and left Shun Palace without any hesitation.

At this moment, he suddenly wants to listen to opera. He has always loved to listen to opera, and he can't enjoy himself freely, so he can only let himself sink in opera.

But the fall is the fall, Ning Shiqing has always known that when the stage is over, he will wake up.

His rationality will pull him out of the drama when the drama ends, and his sobriety is more thorough than his sinking.

At this moment, he was sitting on the theater building of Tingxue Pavilion, the play had ended, and he was the only one left in the huge theater building, but he did not leave for a long time.

Ning Shiqing still had a faint smile on his lips, but his eyes were slightly lonely.

Hearing that the servant in Xuege felt extremely strange, Ning Shiqing was always the first one to leave the theater after the opera ended, and never stayed for a while, but today, looking at the empty stage, he seemed unable to extricate himself.

Ning Shiqing shook his fan and looked, still smiling casually: "Why, do you think I'm weird today?"

The boy nodded, not daring to ask any more questions.

Ning Shiqing didn't need the servant to ask anything, he laughed at himself, shook his head and said: "I always boast that I have never been too deeply involved in the drama, but when I look back, I realize that I have become one of the actors."

The boy didn't understand this, and Ning Shiqing didn't need him to understand, because he knew that some words can only be said to those who don't understand.

Ning Shiqing lowered her eyes and chuckled, finally got up and walked out of the empty stage alone.

"Never mind, whatever..."

Since Duan Jingxun came to Shun Palace last time, when he left, he told Pei Rong that he had to deal with things in the palace for a few days, and he couldn't spare time to leave the palace.

Pei Rong also knew that the empress had just been abolished, the Palace Ding hadn't stabilized yet, and Duan Jingxun also had to recover from his injuries, so he agreed briskly.

It's just that within two days, Pei Rong had some small thoughts.

So on this day, Pei Rong purposely got close to Princess Shun, turned a corner and asked, "Mother, are you going out of the palace today?"

Concubine Shun looked at the young prince who was acting like a spoiled child, and said softly: "What are you planning?"

"No," Pei Rong refused to admit it, and said stubbornly: "But if mother wants to leave the mansion, don't forget to call me, I also want to go out with mother."

How could Princess Shun not be able to guess what Pei Rong was thinking, and lightly tapped Pei Rong's forehead: "Do you want to leave the palace with me, or go back to the palace to see the prince?"

"If mother wants to enter the palace, I can also drop by to see the prince."

"I can take you into the palace." Seeing the uncontrollable smile on Pei Rong's face, Princess Shun said again: "You have to tell me, are you serious with the prince this time?"

Pei Rong smiled shyly, and when he was about to speak, Princess Shun immediately interrupted him: "Okay, I will talk about your words when I get back, I will enter the palace with you first."

"it is good!"

After Princess Shun and Pei Rong came to the East Palace, Pei Rong saw Duan Jingxun from a distance, couldn't help the joy in his heart, and walked up quickly: "Prince."

Duan Jingxun also put down what he was doing, with joy in his eyes: "Pei Rong, why are you here suddenly?"

Pei Rong pointed to Princess Shun who had just walked over, and said, "I came with my mother."

Only then did Duan Jingxun see that Concubine Shun was there, nodded slightly and said, "Princess."

Princess Shun also nodded in response, and said to Pei Rong: "Okay, Pei Rong, you go back first."

How could Pei Rong be willing, he said dissatisfied at the moment: "Mother, I still..."

"Pei Rong," Princess Shun said, "You said you wanted to go to the palace to have a look, but Mother let you see, Mother still has something to say to the crown prince, you go back first."

"but I……"

Pei Rong wanted to say something more, but he pursed his lips at the persuasive eyes of Duan Jingxun, and replied: "I see, mother, then I'll go back to the palace first."

After Pei Rong left, Princess Shun sat down leisurely, and sighed: "Pei Rong really can't hold other people in her eyes now."

"Princess, worry too much. No one else can match Pei Rong's affection for you."

Princess Shun took a sip of tea and said softly: "But Pei Rong treats you now very differently from before."

"In the past, his jokes about the princes and concubines were just due to his temperament. I didn't take it seriously, so I let him go, but now..."

Duan Jingxun asked solemnly, "Does the princess believe me?"

Princess Shun asked with a smile: "The prince has a plan to persuade me?"

"It's not a plan," Duan Jingxun said in a deep voice, "It's that I've thought about what I want to do from the beginning to the end, and I will definitely do it."

Princess Shun's eyes were calm and calm, and she asked, "What does the prince plan to do?"

As soon as Pei Rong returned to the palace, he didn't care about going anywhere, sitting in the lobby, looking at the door from time to time, with a look of anxiety faintly visible on his face.

Finally, after half an hour, seeing Princess Shun returning to the mansion, Pei Rong hurriedly rushed up: "Mother, you are finally back!"

Princess Shun looked at him with a smile: "Why, you have been waiting for me to come back today?"

"Mother, what do you want to say to the prince, and you even sent me away."

"Are you worried about the prince, or me?"

"Mother!" Pei Rong graciously poured a cup of tea for Princess Shun, "Just tell me!"

"I didn't say anything, I just chatted with the prince casually."

"Mom, you still want to lie to me, I don't believe it!"

Concubine Shun shook her head helplessly: "You, you have only been with the prince for so long, and you forgot about your mother."

Pei Rong pursed her lips in embarrassment and smiled: "I won't, mother is my most important person!"

"Okay, okay, I'm used to being sweet," Princess Shun seemed to have no choice but to take Pei Rong, and said, "I'll go with you about the matter between you and the prince, how about it?"

Pei Rong couldn't help being delighted, but soon faded away, and asked in a low voice: "Mother, did the Crown Prince say something to you?"

Princess Shun nodded and said: "That's right, otherwise, according to your temperament, I really don't trust you."

"What did the prince say?"

Concubine Shun smiled softly, but deliberately put it off: "I think it's better for you to ask the prince."

Pei Rong sat in a daze, but couldn't help thinking in his mind, what did Duan Jingxun say to Princess Heshun?
