Dianxia Qingcheng

Somewhere in the forbidden area of ​​the palace, rows of guards were holding torches, searching for intruders.

The night was silent, only the sound of uniform footsteps coming and going back and forth in an orderly manner could be heard.

This is an abandoned bedroom. It is said that it used to be the place where a certain concubine lived. After the concubine died, this place was sealed by an imperial decree from the emperor.

Qi Changyi stood behind the door of the bedroom, looking nervously at the torches that had rushed into the courtyard.

He was wearing bright yellow brocade clothes, showing dark cloud patterns, trimmed with gold silk, and a moon-white waistband that made his waist so slender.

The bright moonlight shone on his face through the gap by the door. The little man had fair skin and picturesque brows, red lips like fire, and a beautiful appearance. The slight movement of his eyes was enough to captivate the soul.

The head guard had already put his hands on the door of the bedroom, and pushed it open slightly.

The torch came in, but there was no one behind the door. The guards looked around to confirm that there was no one in the house, and then closed the door and left.

In the thick curtain of the inner room, Qi Changyi was pressed against the desk by a tall figure, and their bodies were tightly pressed together.

The voice outside the door gradually left, and Qi Changyi relaxed a little.

The figure in front of him slowly appeared in the dim moonlight. He was dressed in a black robe, and he was handsome with sword eyebrows and starry eyes.

Pei Zheng looked down at the person in his arms, "Your Highness, why are you here?"

Qi Changyi blinked, "I, I'm lost."

Pei Zheng curled his lips, "Really? Don't lie to me, you know the price."

Qi Changyi suddenly covered his mouth as if thinking of something, then shook his head.

Pei Zheng knew why he suddenly ran out during the banquet. In fact, when he saw that person at the banquet, he was also shocked.

But this banquet was organized by the emperor to clean up the soldiers guarding the frontier. Hundreds of ministers from the court came, and it was very grand.

The dignified prince, of course, cannot be absent.

It's just that everyone in the world knows that the prince of the Qi country is a fool who has a mother but no mother, and the emperor has always treated him indifferently and doesn't take him seriously.

Only the prime minister, Pei Zheng, seemed to have been very close to the prince Qi Changyi.

At tonight's banquet, after Zhenyuan General Zhao Litang appeared, Qi Changyi suddenly stood up in a daze, and then sneaked out through the side door.

Everyone in the audience focused their attention on General Zhao and the other soldiers, and no one noticed him.

While not daring to face that person, he stumbled and ran forward.

Just broke into the forbidden area directly.

When he was about to be discovered by the patrolling guards, a pair of hands behind him pulled him into his arms, and then hid him behind the curtain of the inner room.

Qi Changyi blinked his big eyes, which were full of innocence and agility, and Pei Zheng's eyes darkened when he saw it.

He squeezed Qi Changyi's chin, and said fiercely, "Why, you can't control yourself once that person comes back? Do you want to get rid of me quickly so that you can fly away with him?"

Qi Changyi's jaw hurt, and he sucked with his mouth open, "Brother Pei, I didn't think so."

"No? Your Highness and that General Zhao grew up together, and everyone knows their deep friendship. How dare you say that your Highness has never thought about it?"

Qi Changyi raised his head, Pei Zheng's injustice made him anxious to explain, but he couldn't organize his words quickly.

In his eagerness, he lost his footing and knocked down the inkstone on the table, making a loud noise.

The guard who was about to leave at the door heard the movement, and walked towards the bedroom holding a torch.

As if he didn't feel it, Pei Zheng still refused to let go of Qi Changyi's chin. Sensing that the little man seemed to be worried about something, Pei Zheng tapped his lower lip with dissatisfied fingers.

"Your Highness, please concentrate."
