Gluttonous Crown Princess - Chapter 70

From Luoyang back to Chang’an, the journey went smoothly without wind and rain.

Compared with the restraint when he came, Tao Ti relaxed a lot in front of Pei Yan on the way back. Whether he was sleeping on his shoulder or lying on his lap, there was no psychological burden before——

This is a husband who shares her affection!

When she thought about it this way, many intimate things became natural, such as hugging him from time to time, touching him, being bolder, and kissing him.

Of course, my parents don’t dare to kiss him more. Every time she kisses him secretly, he will always be pushed back in the car and kissed her legs softly.

The two of them, I, and I are mostly in the carriage, in front of outsiders, at best, pulling hands and cuddling shoulders, it’s not much different from before.

Sleeping in the same bed at night, Tao Ti was still a little embarrassed on the first night, and when Pei Yan got on the bed, he brought her soft body into his arms. After hugging each other for a while, the coyness gradually dissipated and turned into a kind of reassuring sweetness.

In the next few nights, she slept in Pei Yan’s arms generously. He had cold and good-smelling rosin on his body, and his body temperature was low. In this early summer night, he was very comfortable to hold.

Every time Tao Ti is holding his lean waist, Tao Ti always thinks, no wonder Qiongqi is so happy to fall in love, changing boyfriends one by one, it turns out that falling in love is such a happy thing!

The Donggong group rushed for seven days, and finally returned to Chang’an City at noon on the eighth day.

The city gate of Chang’an opened wide, and Prime Minister Zhou and Li Gui, the chief **** next to Emperor Zhaokang, personally greeted each other at the door.

The two groups of people watched the excitement one after another. The assassination of the prince in Luoyang, true or false, spread among the people, and the storyteller made up all kinds of legends, one more mysterious than the other.

Let’s say that the carriage goes straight from Zhuque Street to the Imperial City, passing through Zhuque Gate, Chengtian Gate, and arriving at Tai Chi Palace Square. Emperor Zhaokang, the Queen of Zhou and the Civil and Military Officials are already waiting.

When I learned that Emperor Zhaokang was engaged in such a big show to welcome the prince, brothers and sisters Pei Changzhou and Pei Lingbi felt sour. They felt that the prince had just made a tour from Luoyang, making him look like a general who had returned from a victory. As for?

Empress Zhou didn’t even bother to give them a look, and said directly, “As far as it is not, it is not your decision. Your father wants to give him this decent, what do you think?”

Pei Changzhou and Pei Lingbi choked and both closed their mouths.

When the carriage stopped steadily in front of the Tai Chi Palace, Pei Yan, dressed in a foggy white robe, got out of the carriage, turned and opened the curtain, and helped Tao Ti down.

Knowing that she would be in the palace today, Tao Ti didn’t dress up as if she were on the road, so when she set off from the post in the morning, she specially let Linglong tidy up, changed into a gorgeous goose yellow brocade dress and combed a flying fairy bun. A lot of gold and silver jewelry was also hairpin.

After cleaning up in this way, she instantly changed from a casual and gentle little beauty to a dignified and luxurious princess.

After stepping out of the carriage, Tao Ti’s clear eyes flashed with surprise when he saw the turbulent crowd, and he approached Pei Yan and said in a voice that only two people could hear, “Your Highness, why are there so many people?”

Pei Yan’s face was calm and said, “The emperor’s father greeted him personally. This pomp is actually quite small.”

Tao Ti, “…”

Pei Yan took her hand and smiled gently, “It’s okay, I’ll be with you.”

Tao Ti felt a lot of peace of mind now, and stood side by side with him, holding hands, stepping on the white jade stairs to the high platform step by step.

The noon sun shining on the scalp is a bit hot, but what is more blazing is the eyes of everyone.

Tao Ti pursed her lips, thinking a little nervously, is it right that His Royal Highness shouldn’t hold her hand, is she not compliant with the rules?

After thinking wildly for a while, she and Pei Yan walked behind Emperor Zhaokang and Emperor Zhou.

“The sons and ministers pay homage to the father and the empress and empress.” Pei Yan saluted.

“My daughter-in-law visits the father and the empress.” Tao Ti learns everything.

Emperor Zhaokang raised his hand and said, “No gift.”

His gaze settled on Pei Yan’s body, stepped forward, pressed his hands on Pei Yan’s shoulders, and looked up and down carefully. When he saw that his expression was fair, he was relieved, “Yan’er, you How do you feel now? Can the injury be recovered?”

Pei Yan smiled lightly, “Thank you for your father’s memory, the child’s injury is not a major problem.”

Emperor Zhaokang let out a long sigh of relief, then greeted him lovingly, and Pei Yan answered one by one with a smile.

This scene of father and son filial piety fell in the eyes of everyone, with their own ideas.

Tao Ti tried his best to maintain a standard smile. Although he was very touched by Emperor Zhaokang’s care for Pei Yan, she was such a big person here and was directly ignored by Emperor Zhaokang… It was embarrassing!

She had to get distracted and watch other people’s reactions.

She caught a glimpse of Queen Zhou with a meticulous smile on her face, and her brother and sister Pei Changzhou, who had not so good faces, but most of them showed feelings on their faces.

After some greetings, Emperor Zhaokang was finally willing to give Tao Ti this daughter-in-law a look, “Prince princess, do you remember what you told me when you left the palace?”

Tao Ti, “…?”

She was startled, and when she came back to her senses, her little heart was a little flustered, “Daughter-in-law, daughter-in-law…”

Emperor Zhaokang snorted, “I said, if the prince comes back and loses weight, I can only ask you! Look at him, his jaw is sharp…”

Tao Ti swallowed, and when he was considering the words, he listened to Pei Yan and said, “Father, the prince concubine has taken care of the children and ministers all the way. If she hadn’t sacrificed her life for the rescue, the children and ministers would have been too lucky.”

Emperor Zhaokang glanced at Tao Ti and said in a deep voice, “I don’t care about you for this matter.”

Tao Ti breathed a sigh of relief and said hurriedly, “Thank you, Father.”

Emperor Zhaokang ignored her and turned to Pei Yan, “You must be tired because of the bumps along the way. Let’s go back to the East Palace and rest. Let’s have a meal with the family at night.”

Pei Yan responded and took Tao Ti back to the East Palace first.

On the carriage going to the East Palace, Pei Yan saw her like a frightened deer, soothed, “Don’t worry, the emperor was just kidding with you.”

Tao Ti frowned and grumbled aggrievedly, “It’s like a joke. If you didn’t speak for me, he would really want to punish me.”

“Emperor father is not a faint emperor, how can he punish people indiscriminately.”

Pei Yan smiled lowly twice, raised his hand to squeeze her soft face, and coaxed, “Father is just a little more dignified. He usually talks to people like this. You kept your head down just now. He didn’t even see his expression, he really didn’t blame you…On the contrary, the emperor recognized you as a daughter-in-law.”

Tao Ti, “Huh?”

Pei Yan bends his eyebrows, “He said, we will have dinner with the family at night.”

He specifically emphasized the three words “a family”.

Tao Ti stayed for a while, and immediately her eyes lit up. She was too nervous just now to pay attention to the wording.

Now that she thinks about it this way, she feels a lot more relaxed, but she still can’t help but sigh with emotion, “Fortunately, your highness, your temperament has followed the queen, if you are like your majesty… well, then you look good, I don’t dare to come near.”

Hearing this, Pei Yan lowered his eyes, and his thick eyelashes covered the dark emotions in his eyes.

Does the temperament follow the mother? No, he is more like his father’s.

It’s just that she likes his gentle and jade side, not the gloomy and indifferent him inside…

Then he will cover it up, only show what she likes, don’t scare her away.

“Your Highness, Your Highness?” Tao Ti called twice, and Shui Lingling’s eyes stared at him suspiciously, “What are you thinking about?”

Pei Yan returned to his senses and smiled faintly, “The empress father is in front of the mother, never like this. He is very kind to the empress, and he loves the mother so much that he can’t wait to hold the best in the world in front of her.”

Tao Ti’s eyes flowed, thinking of the clean and beautiful Fengyi Palace, and thinking of Emperor Zhaokang’s love for Pei Yan, nodded, and said nothing.

The carriage drove steadily into the East Palace.

Pei Yan returned to the Zixiao Hall first, while Tao Ti returned to her Yaoguang Hall.

Seven days ago, I heard that the prince and the others had set off from Luoyang. The people who stayed behind in the Yaoguang Hall were rejoiced, and they cleaned the Yaoguang Hall up and down carefully, and even the floor tiles were polished brightly.

At this moment, I saw the prince’s carriage coming by, and the palace people lined up neatly in two lines, waiting for the carriage to stop, and hurriedly bent over to salute.

Looking at the smiling faces of the palace people, Tao Ti had an inexplicable sense of honor for the leader of the military parade. She greeted them kindly, supported by Linglong, and went into the house to rest.

After a brief refreshing, Tao Ti lay on the big bed he was familiar with, and took a nap in comfort.

This time, I slept very peacefully.

When I opened my eyes again, I found that there were more people beside me——

Seeing Pei Yan sleeping sideways, Tao Ti’s brain was dull for a while, why did he sleep here?

As if feeling her doubts, Pei Yan slowly opened his eyes, his black eyes were filled with hazy water vapor, and his voice was a bit dumb, “Awake?”

It’s amazing that she looks so good when she just woke up.

Tao Ti’s cheeks are slightly red, “Hmm…”

She glanced outside, and the shallow dim light passed through the curtain, indicating that it was not dark yet.

“His Royal Highness, when did you come?”

Pei Yan’s hand has been resting on her slender waist. At this moment, she pulled her into his arms again, like a lazy lion, firmly grabbing his prey.

His chin touched her hair affectionately, and said lazily, “I’ll be here when I clean up in the Purple Heaven Hall. Seeing you sleep so soundly, I lie down and slept together.”

Tao Ti gently tugged at his shirt and whispered, “Then should we get up now? We have to go to dinner with Your Majesty at night.”

Pei Yan closed his eyes, rubbed her chin, “Goodbye, let me hug her for a while, huh?”

This inadvertent, coquettish languid tone made Tao Ti’s heart beat a beat, really powerless to resist.

She also quietly closed her eyes and nestled in his arms.

Linglong was still outside the door thinking that the time was almost the same, afraid of delay, bit the bullet and called out, and the two of them got up slowly in bed.

Pei Yan changed into a bamboo-blue robe, slender and tall, with a face like a crown jade. If he was paired with a folding fan, he would be a handsome and turbulent young man.

Tao Ti also chose a set of light blue dresses and concentric buns. Because tonight was a family dinner, and she didn’t dress up too gorgeously, she only chose a set of emerald headwear, which was gentle and expensive.

When the two of them stood together, the people in the palace showed a look of wonder: the prince and the princess are really good match each other!

As night fell, the lights came on.

On the way to Zichen Palace, Tao Ti was a little nervous, “His Royal Highness, are we still three of us at night?”

Pei Yan said, “The queen should be there too.”

When Tao Ti heard it, she probably felt that the crowds were so crowded that it could distract some of Emperor Zhaokang’s attention, but she didn’t feel so nervous.

While talking, the two arrived at Zichen Palace.
