Wearing a book, the paranoid devil is crying in my arms

Chapter 257 Gifting the King to the World, Thinking of Engagement

At this point, both of them were silent for a while, and then Pei Mu glanced at Pei Shuo's spiritual seat, feeling very uncomfortable.

"I have been fighting abroad for two years, but I didn't expect to come back. It's still too late."

"The old general didn't blame you." Seeing that he was upset, Xi Yan said softly.

Pei Mu lowered his head and didn't speak, but he felt very depressed. He pulled Xi Yan and turned around towards his room.

He kept bringing the person to the room where he was resting before, and closed the door, so the stove had already been turned on before that.

The room was warm, and within a short while, Xi Yan's frozen body began to warm up slowly. This was his first visit to Pei Mu's room.

The things in this room are very simple, perhaps the things he collected a few years ago are on the bookshelf most of the time.

Among them, Xi Yan was a little surprised. He looked at the several carved figurines on the shelf, but those looked very rough.

He froze for a moment, then raised his hand to pick up one. This one had a crooked head during carving, and the other one was ruined because the carving knife was too deep.

This had to make the two villains that Pei Mu gave him before feel a little rough at that time, but they were well sculpted.

"You did this?"

Xi Yan turned to look at him, Pei Mu raised his hand and was about to untie the armor on his body, when he heard Xi Yan's question, he turned his head and looked over.

It's been too long and he almost forgot, "I used to play it when I was young."

Xi Yan walked to his side, untied the cloak on his body, and then raised his hand to help him remove the armor.

Pei Mu froze in place, her eyes fell on Xi Yan's face, feeling unspeakable in her heart.

"Wearing this every day is very heavy."

The armor is removed, and the heavy feeling can be clearly felt in the hand.

"I'm used to it." Pei Mu didn't feel anything, raised his hand and threw the armor aside, and then led Xi Yan to the stove.

The hand that touched him was still a little cold, so he used the stove to warm him up, but those eyes were a little lost in thought.

The two of them didn't speak for a long time, they were so quiet that they could hear the sound of wind and snow outside.

"In the past two years, have you been okay in the palace?"

Pei Mu did not forget to miss him on the battlefield, every time he thought of him in court, facing those civil servants alone, facing all kinds of pressure.

Feeling unspeakably uncomfortable, Xi Yan chuckled, "What can I have? After all, I am a king, what can they do to me."

Pei Mu's hand tightened slightly, and he held his hand tightly in mine, and his voice was a little dull for a while.

"I heard that this year many people are urging you to become a queen and enrich your harem."

Even on the battlefield, he could occasionally hear those recruits discussing these words.

After all, it is far away in the frontier, and a lot of news is very limited. The only thing he can know is what he heard from those recruits recently.

The court has been arguing for the emperor to have a queen, and the emperor is now old, but he has been reluctant to enrich the harem.

In the future, the emperor's heir will also be a problem, and he also heard that a minister sent a noble daughter into the palace.

The name is to serve the emperor, after all, he just wants to be blessed one day, and then successfully enters the harem.

Especially that Yun Lan from the Yun family, who said that she was born with extremely good looks, and even when she was young, she could be regarded as growing up with Xi Yan.

With the queen mother behind her and the emperor's green plum, she is the most likely to become the mother of the country in the future.

Pei Mu couldn't tell what was going on in his heart, but he felt very uncomfortable every time he heard the news.

He wants to come back as soon as possible, and wants to stop Xi Yan from getting married, but what qualifications does he have?

"They keep mentioning those words every year, why should they care?"

Xi Yan withdrew his hand from Pei Mu's.

Hearing this, Pei Mu frowned, trying to hide the emotion in his eyes.

Yes, they mention it every year, how can they not care about it, it will be a matter of time before a concubine is established, just because he is the king.

Pei Mu slowly withdrew his hand and clenched it into a fist. After all, he had no reason to interfere in this matter.

Why did he let Xi Yan marry a wife for the rest of his life?

"For this big victory, we can stay in Kyoto for the time being and don't need to leave. Kyoto has changed a lot in recent years."

Xi Yan didn't notice anything wrong with Pei Mu, he smiled and raised his hand to take out an oiled paper bag from his wide cuff.

"You always like to eat sweets. This candy man should be the one you like. I bought it on a special trip. I haven't eaten it in the past few years on the battlefield. I thought you would want to eat it."

As he said that, Xi Yan opened the oiled paper bag, and there were two sugar figurines lying inside, which looked like foxes that he liked to be made into by others.

Pei Mu pursed her lips, and it took a while to calm down and look up at him.

"Yeah, I haven't seen Kyoto, and I don't know what's going on in Kyoto now."

"If you want, I can accompany you around, and the Chinese New Year is coming soon, and Kyoto will be very lively these days."

Pei Mu picked up a candy figurine from his hand, threw it into his mouth, and raised his lips as before.

"Okay, I didn't expect that there would be a day when you would take me around the imperial city."

Hearing this, Xi Yan also raised his hand to pick up another sugar figurine and put it in his mouth, yes, it is true to say that, Pei Mu was the one who dragged him the first time he visited Kyoto.

He really didn't expect that one day, he would take Pei Mu around.

Pei Mu was still the same as usual, after putting the sugar figurine in his mouth for a while, he began to crunch it into pieces, and then threw the wooden stick into the charcoal fire.

Xi Yan turned around and picked up the cloak, "It's getting late, I should go back to the palace."

As he spoke, he put on his cloak and walked to the door, but when he was about to open the door, he was stopped by Pei Mu.

"When are you going to marry or not?"

After all, the topic went back to the original place, and Xi Yan didn't understand why Pei Mu was so obsessed with this issue.

This time he really started to think, "Wait until Yan Country is more peaceful, it's not suitable to marry a wife now."

Pei Mu pursed his lips and took a deep breath, so after all, he still had the intention of marrying a wife.

"But you keep asking me this, is it possible that you want to marry a wife just after returning from the battle? Do you feel lonely on the battlefield?"

When Xi Yan said this, there was still a smile on the corner of his mouth.

Pei Mu said without hesitation, "No, I'm not in the mood to marry."

Xi Yan was a little dazed, but seeing the sky outside, he still bypassed Pei Mu and raised his hand to open the door.

Immediately, the cold wind came blowing in with snowflakes. Xi Yan raised his hand, but he didn't expect Pei Mu to stand in front of him immediately, raised his hand to tie a cloak on him, and then put his hat on.

By the way, I lowered the brim of the hat a bit, the person in front of me is in front of me, as long as I stretch out my hand, I can hold him in my arms.

But he didn't do that, he just spoke softly.

"I send you……"

Xi Yan immediately refused, "You just came back, take a good rest, I'll just go back to the palace by myself."

"I'll see you off!" This time, it was in an undeniable tone, even more like a king giving orders than a banquet.

Xi Yan froze for a moment, but he could only nod his head.

"Okay, listen to you."
