and son

Shangguan Ting did not place her hopes on Meng Chuji to help him completely. Which woman would share her husband's favor with other women? It is enough for His Highness to be neither far, nor close, nor humble nor overbearing. His Highness doesn't like you, and you will make him loathe you if you force yourself, so if you are careful, let His Highness change his view first, His Highness will not resist you so much."

Shangguan Ting realized one thing cleverly and quickly: Meng Chuji seems to... not like Pei Jing?

For a moment, I was secretly happy in my heart, and I couldn't help showing a real smile on my face, not the usual hypocritical smile.

"Ting'er always listens to her cousin."

"good."

The negotiation between the two parties was pleasant, and the conversation along the way was very pleasant.

When we arrived at the Prince's Mansion, Meng Chuji said regretfully, "It's a pity that I can't invite you in, so cousin, you should go back first. Remember, don't forget to come over this afternoon."

"it is good."

Shangguan Ting obediently responded, and was about to go down, Meng Chuji remembered something again, and shouted: "By the way, bring some almond cakes from Toshido Hall, His Highness loves to eat, borrow flowers to present Buddha, don't forget."

"Okay, Ting'er has memorized it all."

Shangguan Ting looked back and smiled.

Meng Chuji's heart fluttered violently, and he watched her get off the carriage, and got into the carriage of Zhennan Prince's Mansion, which had been following the carriage of the Prince's Mansion. He lifted the curtain to look around, and soon disappeared.

Clicking his tongue, feeling happy, Meng Chuji got out of the car himself, thinking of the scene of calling Shangguanting to call his sister-in-law in the future, he couldn't help but feel elated.

Look how competent his brother is.

In the future, Pei Jing and Shangguan Ting's husband and wife are deeply in love with each other, so he will find a beautiful beauty to be his partner, to fulfill his dream of traveling all over the world and visiting mountains, rivers and lakes, and become an anonymous, happy and free person.

With such an idea in mind, Meng Chuji was overjoyed, went back to the mansion to find a bow and arrow, and practiced a few arrows.

He learned archery well and had enough to eat every day. In the future, the buddies who travel and eat all the way will rely on it.

About Pei Jing was ill, and the courtiers couldn't bother him with political affairs, so Pei Jing went to the court very early today. Meng Chuji practiced arrows and before he had breakfast, he was called by the steward, saying that Pei Jing had returned let him pass.

Meng Chuji put the bow and arrow on the bow stand against the wall and put it away. After washing his hands, he went to the main hall. In the main hall, the maids were serving dishes. Pei Jing was sitting upright, and there were two sweet potatoes on the table in front of him.

The sweet potato must have been steamed again. It was steaming, and the cracked part of the skin revealed a few streaks of yellow, which looked delicious.

"Quiet!"

Hearing the sound of footsteps, Pei Jing smiled warmly and was about to get up.

Meng Chuji smiled and beat him to stop it, strode forward, moved a stool and sat down next to Pei Jing, poked the sweet potato twice with his index finger, it was indeed hot just out of the oven.

"It's really early today, the snow disaster has been resolved?"

"No." Pei Jing said gently, "Snowstorms are coming from all sides. The snow in other places is bigger and more terrifying than the snow in the king's capital. Everyone is helpless. They can only support where there is difficulty. The food for disaster relief will be sent as soon as possible. , I hope there will be fewer victims.”

"Don't worry, you've done a good job. Natural disasters are always unstoppable. You can't tell the sky that it won't snow, can you?"

Meng Chuji patted him on the shoulder to show comfort.

Pei Jing smiled, didn't mention the matter, turned her eyes, picked up a sweet potato, and put it in front of Meng Chuji.

"Here, yours."

Meng Chuji pointed at himself in a daze, "Mine?"

"Yes." Pei Jing picked up the remaining one, "I can't finish it all by myself, so you can share some for me."

Meng Chuji laughed when he heard the words: "This is not a good thing. If you can't eat it, don't eat it. A table of good things, why eat this, you don't eat it either."

As he said that, he reached out to take the one in Pei Jing's hand.

Pei Jing avoided it, not letting Meng Chuji take it away, but looked into his eyes with deep emotion, "I want to eat."

Meng Chuji couldn't understand his eyes, so he blinked in confusion, and thought about it carefully, eating a sweet potato is not a big deal, so he can eat with him if he's happy, so he held the sweet potato and said, "Okay, it took a lot of money anyway. The money can’t be wasted, so let’s share it for you.”

Only then did Pei Jing show off her face, gracefully peeled half of the sweet potato, put it in Meng Chuji's hand, then took the one in his hand, peeled off the skin, and took a bite while looking at Meng Chuji.

Meng Chuji ate sweet potatoes, and always felt that something was wrong. As for what was wrong, he couldn't tell.

Thinking left and right, I felt that I was thinking too much, so I didn't take it seriously.

Fortunately, after eating the sweet potatoes, this strange feeling disappeared, and the two of them had dinner as usual, and met to practice archery.

Of course you can't practice outside when it snows, and there are many vacant rooms in the Prince's Mansion, you can practice anywhere you put up a target. Meng Chuji took Pei Jing to the room where he practiced in the morning.

The arrows on the target hadn't had time to clear away, and the sticks stuck in the center of the target. Pei Jing was amazed when she saw it, and couldn't help but ask, "Jing Jing, how long have you been learning archery?"

"How long?" Meng Chuji raised his head proudly, "Half a month, how about it, isn't it amazing?"

Pei Jing was shocked: "Half a month?!"

Meng Chuji added: "I'm still self-taught, my father's archery is not as good as mine."

Pei Jing was speechless.

"Don't be ashamed of yourself. You can only find one genius like me in the world. When I teach you, you will be able to beat [-]% of the archers in the world."

"..."

Meng Chuji, who didn't know that modesty is a traditional virtue, felt very good about himself. He taught Pei Jing how to shoot a few arrows, and found that he had improved rapidly. He even felt that he was the reincarnation of the arrow god.

Feeling that today's practice is almost done, Meng Chuji said: "Drink the medicine before going to the study, so as to avoid the relapse of the cold. Is your throat better?"

Pei Jing shook her head, "I won't go to the study today."

The ministers in the court sympathized with him, and each shared the political affairs. The Taishi supervised the implementation of the snow disaster relief, so there was nothing to deal with.

"That's good, so you can have a good rest." Meng Chuji was extremely happy, "Go, go back to the room and sleep for a while, Ah Fu will cook the medicine later."

Pei Jing nodded and went back to the room with Meng Chuji. On the way, she was hesitant when she thought of something. After thinking for a while, she frowned and asked, "Your afternoon..."

Meng Chuji quickly replied, "I'm not going anywhere in the afternoon."

After all, his little cousin Ting'er is coming, so he can't go out to have sex today, but another day.

After Pei Jing got the answer, she looked at him softer and softer: "Accompany me?"

"Yes, with you."

The corners of her mouth suddenly turned up, Pei Jing turned her eyes away to watch the heavy snow outside the verandah, and a line of poetry appeared in her mind:

A thousand snowflakes fly outside the corridor, a leisurely couple.

In the afternoon, Shangguan Ting came to pick an order after dinner.

A quarter of an hour after the meal, Meng Chuji was coaxing Pei Jing to drink the medicine.

The sick Pei Jing was obedient, she was asked to drink medicine and eat candied fruit, but the cold was only a little bit better, so Pei Jing wanted to stop the medicine.

"No, if you don't drink, you don't want to do anything today."

"Quiet, I'm really fine."

Ah.

the man.

He obviously heard him coughing just now, so he insisted that he was healed, and when the fever reached the point where his mother no longer knew him, he would be happy.

At this moment, the chief steward stood outside the main hall and said, "Your Highness, Your Majesty, Mrs. Kui, Princess Jin, Princess Yun... and Princess Qinghe are here."

Hearing the words "Princess Qinghe", Pei Jing immediately looked at Meng Chuji. Meng Chuji raised his hands in surrender, and lied without blushing, "I didn't do it!"

No matter how you look at it, Pei Jing looks like he did it, but he didn't expose it. He just asked the general manager, "What are they doing here?"

The steward reported truthfully: "All the wives and princesses said that they heard that the empress is not feeling well, so they came to visit the concubine."

Pei Jing looked at Meng Chuji again, "What's wrong with you?"

"I..." Meng Chuji choked speechlessly for a moment, rolled his eyes, and spat out "bah", "I don't feel unwell, it's probably because people like you, and I heard that you were sick, so I deliberately wanted to cover up your illness and mobilize people to come to see you, you Still leaning on me, Qinghe likes you, do you think so?"

Pei Jing raised her eyebrows slightly, thinking that he was really wronged, coughed and let him go, and said to the chief: "Please come in, ladies."

If Shangguan Ting came alone, she could be kicked out, but if such a large group of people came together, they couldn't all be kicked out. It would be too embarrassing for the Zhennan Palace to just catch up with Guan Ting.

Considering that there are so many people here, Shangguan Ting can't do anything out of line, let's forget it this time.

The manager took the order to retreat, Pei Jing picked up the medicine bowl and drank it down, and then said: "They are all female relatives, I will avoid them for now, please get along well with all the ladies quietly, and don't let them bully you, understand?"

Meng Chuji didn't listen to what he said, but looking at his actions, pointing at him was astonished and angry: "You you you..."

He is not afraid of suffering at all, and he even shirks his life and death from taking the medicine, and let him coax him so much, it turns out it is just to tease him!

unacceptable!

Pei Jing's thin lips curled slightly, patted his head, and left the main hall without hesitation.

Meng Chuji was furious, a wicked person cannot be forgiven, no matter how he drinks medicine, he is a pig.

Poured a cup of tea and gulped down to calm down the anger, Shangguan Ting and a group of noble ladies happened to arrive.

All the fragrances are here, and the clouds and temples are beautiful, all of them are noble, and the room is full of brilliance.

Shangguan Ting did not take the lead, probably because she understood Meng Chuji's painstaking efforts in such arrangements, and tried to keep a low profile so as not to annoy Pei Jing, but seeing that Pei Jing was not there, she came from the back to the front and called out affectionately:

"Cousin."

The focus of the audience fell on her.

"Sit and sit."

Meng Chuji didn't dare to be too affectionate with Shangguan Ting. Pei Jing is gone, but the manager is still there. The manager will definitely report the details to Pei Jing, so he can only treat everyone equally.

Shangguan Ting was obviously treated coldly, and the other noble ladies secretly despised her. Although she is the princess concubine who came with her relatives, she is also the future mother of the country. Who doesn't want to compete to curry favor, she rushes to grab their chance, and they naturally don't like it It's comfortable, but it's a pleasure now.

Look at her tone when she invited them to watch Meng Chuji together, as if she knew Meng Chuji very well...

Tsk, but that's all.

Shangguan Ting clenched her palms and sat down silently with her head bowed.

She came with a purpose and returned when she had achieved it. No matter what the Prince's Mansion did, it would fall into Pei Jing's eyes and ears. She had to perform well in order to make Pei Jing change her opinion.

For this reason, I endured it.
