Dianxia Qingcheng

After coming out of the alley, Qi Changyi's mouth was clean, but it was a little red and swollen.

He tried to push back several times just now, but the person in front of him remained motionless.

Qi Changyi lowered his head and did not speak, and refused to shrink under Pei Zheng's cloak any longer, leaning against the wall to pant slightly.

Pei Zheng didn't force him anymore, instead he took his still cold little hand and put it in his arms.

With a "grunt", Qi Changyi's stomach growled, and his white earlobes turned red immediately.

"hungry?"

Qi Changyi refused to speak, angry with Pei Zheng and himself.

Pei Zheng rubbed his hair and led him to dinner, the two held hands hidden under the wide sleeves.

In fact, after the morning court today, the emperor summoned Pei Zheng to discuss matters in the hall, both openly and secretly mentioned that the queen's family has become too powerful recently, and he must find a way to contain it as soon as possible.

The second princess, Qi Bingzhi, is the only daughter of the empress. The emperor called her into the palace and let the two of them spend a while alone. What does it mean that Pei Zheng felt like a mirror in his heart.

The emperor allowed him to have power, and he was bound to give up and make concessions in some places.

Besides, the last time I asked the emperor for orders to bring Qi Changyi over, I also made such a deal with the emperor.

Originally, in Pei Zheng's heart, all the feelings in the world are the most useless, the most usable, and the most disposable.

What now?He was a little unclear.

It was cold and windy at night, and I felt warm after walking for a long time.

Pei Zheng took Qi Changyi to Yipinxiang, the largest restaurant in the imperial capital, asked for a quiet private room, and ordered a lot of delicacies from mountains and seas.

Qi Changyi was obviously hungry, but he didn't have much appetite for food, he only ate two chopsticks, and refused to eat any more.

Pei Zheng walked over, sat down beside him, put the little figure on his lap, and touched Buying's waist.

"I'm thin again, I need to eat more."

As he spoke, he held something and handed it to Qi Changyi's mouth.

Qi Changyi turned his head away and muttered, "I don't want to eat..."

Pei Zheng suppressed the anger in his heart, he is becoming more and more willful now, and before he had the guts to refuse any of his requests.

—Turned the little man's face with his hands, pinched his cheeks, and put the chopsticks directly into his mouth.

"chew."

Qi Changyi had no choice but to chew the food twice, the taste was like chewing wax, and he swallowed the food with difficulty.

Pei Zheng picked up a few more chopsticks and forced him to eat. He didn't take back the chopsticks until he felt that his stomach was no longer so soft.

Qi Changyi hadn't eaten properly for a long time, and his stomach was already full of holes. He just ate a few candied haws and was forced to eat so many nourishing things, which made his stomach feel even more uncomfortable.

The little man's face changed, and he covered his belly in a cold sweat, and suddenly he turned his head and retched while clutching the edge of the table.

Pei Zhengxin also grabbed it, and he also ate the candied haws and food, and gave it to Qi Changyi after making sure there was no problem.

The sound of retching was heard all at once, as if they were about to vomit out their stomachs together.

Pei Zheng patted his back to relieve him, the arched back was bony, and the spine protruded.

It took a long time for Qi Changyi to stop retching, and the turmoil in his stomach finally subsided, but his face was pale, and his energy was taken away.

Pei Zheng felt distressed, took the little man back into his arms, and fed him some water to rinse his mouth.

The small body in front of me is weak and weak, and I don't know if I can support it.

No, it must be brought back.

Pei Zheng held his hand tightly, although it was weak, but with this real feeling, it made him feel much more at ease.

That's it, it's as good as it is, no matter what happens outside, it's good for this little person to stay by my side all the time.

Perhaps because he knew that his marriage would sooner or later become a means for the emperor to consolidate the regime, Pei Zheng's crazy possessiveness towards Qi Changyi was also growing wildly.

Eat meat and drink blood, take root and sprout.

There was a sudden sound of gongs and drums on the street outside, and the street lamp parade had already begun.

Qi Changyi moved his body and turned his head to look at the window.

"Want to go?"

Qi Changyi looked into Pei Zheng's eyes and nodded.

"Come here and give me a kiss."

Pei Zheng's body was straight, a little taller than Qi Changyi who was sitting on his lap.

Qi Changyi clasped his fingers, the crowd outside was so attractive, he hesitated for a while, then closed his eyes with red ears and walked over.

Pei Zheng deliberately hid back, the little man kissed nothing, opened his eyes, and looked at Pei Zheng with some doubts.

Seeing that the expression on his face finally became more vivid, Pei Zheng raised the corners of his lips.

In a fit of rage, Qi Changyi directly raised his hand to pull Pei Zheng's neck, and slammed his lips against his thin lips so hard that the mouths of both of them became numb.

Pei Zheng was fine, he touched the corner of his lips, the pain was nothing at all.

Qi Changyi, however, was knocked down by himself and burst into tears. He covered his mouth, only showing his watery almond eyes, and looked at Pei Zheng pitifully.

Pei Zheng's eyes softened, he helped him up, and he stood up too, opened the door and walked out.

Seeing that the two of them had to go to the street, Chengfeng outside the door couldn't help feeling a little worried.

"Master, there is a street lamp parade tonight, and there are too many people outside, so it is not suitable for you and His Highness to go out."

How could Pei Zheng not know this truth, but the little man seemed very interested, besides, this is in the imperial capital, and Chengfeng and himself are following, so it shouldn't be a big problem.

"It's okay, you just follow behind."

After speaking, he took the little man and went to the street.

The crowds on the street were all crowded together, holding their own lanterns, chatting and laughing in twos and threes, and many people formed a circle, as if they were watching some juggling performance.

Qi Changyi kept looking around with his round eyes open. He had never seen so many people. There were all kinds of men, women and children, which was really novel.

Chengfeng has been carefully following behind the two of them, holding a sword and checking vigilantly.

There was a little girl who looked to be about the same age as Qi Changyi, wearing a goose-yellow dress with long sleeves and walking up to them with red cheeks.

"Grand...son, this... this is a lantern I made with my own hands. I'm giving it to you."

The lamp in the little girl's hand was passed to Qi Changyi. The lamp was like a red lotus, as red as fire.

Qi Changyi reached out to take it, looked left and right and liked it very much, and smiled happily.

"Thank you."

"Young master, do you still like it?"

"Well, it's very nice, I like it very much."

The little girl blushed even more, "Just as long as you like it, I don't know... I don't know..."

Her face was flushed red, like a ripe little apple, and she hesitated to speak when she looked at Qi Changyi with curved eyebrows.

"What's the matter with you? Your face is so red, could you be sick?"

Said that Qi Changyi was about to put his hand on the little girl's forehead, the little girl's eyes widened in shock, her body froze and she didn't dare to move.

But before that hand touched her, it was grabbed by another, longer hand.

Pei Zheng was obviously smiling, but it made people feel chills down their backs.

"Which family girl are you from? Why are you so bold that you gave the lantern directly to someone?"

Seeing that Pei Zheng looked young and handsome, and seemed to have a very close relationship with Qi Changyi, the little girl regarded him as Qi Changyi's relative.

"I, I saw that this young master was alone, so I thought, I thought to come over and ask, my lantern has never been given to anyone else, this young master is the first..."

The little girl was so frightened by Pei Zheng's aggressive aura that she almost cried, her eyes were red.

In fact, this is a custom. If you see a boy or girl you like during the street lamp parade, you can give him (her) the lantern in your hand. If he (she) accepts it, it means that he (she) is also willing to get to know you. The two can start a love story.

That young master obviously accepted his own lantern, why is the elder beside him so frightening, the throwing knife in his eyes seemed to freeze her to death.

After hearing this, Pei Zheng's smile deepened, and he shook Qi Changyi's hand in front of the little girl's eyes.

"Who said he was alone?"

The little girl frowned and wondered for a while, then suddenly realized, she covered her mouth in shock, and watched the two stuttering and speechless.

"You... you... are... are..."

Pei Zheng's index finger "hush" on his lips, took the red lotus lantern from Qi Changyi's hand and returned it to the little girl, and lowered his voice.

"Just know it, don't tell others, otherwise..."

He scratched the little girl's neck with his fingers, and the little girl turned pale and frantically nodded in fright, turned around and ran away holding the lantern.

The lamp that Qi Changyi got was returned to others by Pei Zheng, his eyes were full of disappointment.

Pei Zheng saw his depression, and pulled him through the crowd to a small stall selling lamps.

"Pick one."

The light in Qi Changyi's eyes flickered again, and he looked up at Pei Zheng.

"Don't want it? Forget it."

Pei Zheng made a gesture to leave, but Qi Changyi grabbed his sleeve suddenly, "I want, I want."

Qi Changyi was dazzled by all kinds of lamps, and he carefully selected them one by one.

Pei Zheng was not in a hurry, and stood beside him, looking down at him.

"I want this..."

Qi Changyi pointed to a paper lantern in the shape of a little rabbit. There was also a small lotus flower on top of the rabbit's head. The body of the rabbit was white, and only the lotus flower was red.

Pei Zheng smiled, he really knows how to choose.

The two picked up the lanterns and left. Just as the stall owner was about to call for the two to give money, Cheng Feng behind him stepped forward and threw a silver coin over.

"Don't look for it."

After speaking, follow the two people in front.

Qi Changyi held the lantern with both hands and did not let go, looking left and right, he liked it very much.

Pei Zheng couldn't hold him even if he wanted to, so he could only follow closely behind him, separating him from the crowd around him.

But there were too many people, it was inevitable that some people would squeeze into Qi Changyi.

A man suddenly jumped out and bumped into Qi Changyi, hitting a flimsy little man named Chuangchao, and the lantern in his arms fell to the ground.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry."

The man apologized twice and wanted to leave, but was suddenly grabbed by the back of his collar, and he opened his mouth and began to curse, "I'm in a hurry! Who the hell dares to drag me! Can you afford to delay my work?" !"

— A cold voice sounded behind him.

"I can afford to pay for your life."
