Gluttonous Crown Princess - Chapter 78

In the evening, the rain stopped. At night, Pei Yan walked to the bed after taking a shower and saw Tao Ti kneeling on the bed, busy living something.

Taking a closer look, Pei Yan narrowed his black eyes, his tone was a little subtle, “Ati, what are you doing?”

Tao Ti, who was laying the quilt, turned his head slowly, looked at the long jade man by the bed, and smiled, “Your Majesty, have you finished bathing?”

Pei Yan, “Yeah.”

He scanned the two quilts plainly, and finally his eyes fell on her small face with obvious guilty conscience.

Tao Ti saw him frowning, turned around and crawled to the bed, reached out his hand to hold his hand, shook it slightly, and said something good, “Your Highness, sit down and say?”

Pei Yan stared at her crystal clear eyes, his eyebrows moved slightly.

She looked up and behaved, and he couldn’t refuse it.

Tao Ti saw him sit down, let go of his hand, and said solemnly and seriously, “I thought about it today, and I think it’s better to sleep separately for the sake of your body…”

Pei Yan raised his eyebrows, “For my health?”

Tao Ti’s cheeks were a little hot, his eyes dodged, and he muttered, “That’s right, that…I’m not in good health, it’s better to have a clear heart and less desires…”

Pei Yan, “…”

Tao Ti saw that he didn’t speak, thinking that he was speaking too bluntly and hurting him. After all, men don’t like to be told that it’s impossible. She quickly explained, “Don’t get me wrong, I’m not saying you can’t do it, I mean, you should sleep separately before your body recuperates…”

Pei Yan, “…”

Seeing her getting darker and darker, Pei Yan closed her eyes and pinched her chin with one hand, causing her to turn her head and stare at him.

Tao Ti bit her lip lightly and saw him approach her little by little. Her nose almost touched the tip of her nose. The warm breath flicked her skin, making her heart tremble inexplicably.

Here comes again, the same aggression as yesterday.

Tao Ti stared at him blankly, not knowing what expression to make.

Pei Yan’s eyes were like lacquer, for a long while, he said in a deep voice, “I can do it.”

Tao Ti, “…?”

When he realized what he meant, Tao Ti’s face blushed, as if there was a groundhog screaming frantically in his heart.

Wait, wait, don’t lose your mind, calm down!

Seeing this handsome face close at hand, Tao Ti shrank his neck. He looked like this, as if she had the slightest doubt, he would rush forward to prove it without hesitation.

Her watery eyes were full of innocence, and her voice trembled, “I, I may not be good.”

Pei Yan, “…”

After a while, he chuckled and let go of the hand holding her cheek, knocking on her forehead, “Little fool.”

Tao Ti was stunned, and saw him sitting up straight and arranging his bedclothes, “Don’t worry, if you didn’t agree, I won’t touch you.”

Tao Ti pursed her lips, what to do? She regretted what she had just said.

If Qiongqi was there, she would definitely poke her forehead and curse——

Tao Ti, Tao Ti, did you eat too much and blocked your brain cells? If you leave such a big handsome guy to sleep, right? !

Pei Yan took out a quilt over there, turned it back, and said lightly, “It will be very hot to cover two quilts.”

Tao Ti smiled awkwardly at him, slowly drilled into the bed, and then lay down obediently as usual.

Pei Yan glanced at her well-behaved appearance, raised the corners of her lips slightly, turned off the light, and lay down gently beside her.

Inside the dim curtain, it was very quiet.

Tao Ti thought for a while, took the initiative to find a topic, and asked whether today’s milk tea tastes suitable, whether it is too sweet, if there are other flavors, will there be a market for selling it…

Pei Yan closed his eyes leisurely and answered patiently.

While talking, Tao Ti was sleepy first, her voice getting smaller and smaller, and finally turned into a uniform breathing sound.

Pei Yan turned her head and glanced at her, only slightly stretched out her hand to hook her waist, she automatically rolled into his arms, sleeping more and more peacefully.

Pei Yan stroked her hair lightly, only feeling that her body was far more honest than her mouth.

………

The next day, Tao Ti got up early to study a new flavor of milk tea. The fifth prince and the sixth princess just came to her to play.

The two children smelled the sweet scent of milk a long distance away, and they touched the small kitchen without the need for a palace man to lead the way.

After greeting Tao Ti, the two of them fell into the steaming milk pot, their eyes were full of curiosity and greed, “Sister-in-law, what are you doing so delicious?”

Tao Ti was delighted to see them coming, “You just happened to be here, just to help me try the taste.”

After listening to the taste, the two children were one hundred and twenty happy, sitting happily on the stone bench outside the yard, waiting for the delicious food to be served.

In a short while, Tao Ti filled out the brewed milk tea one by one. In addition to the fifth prince and the sixth princess, she also gave some to the palace people in Yaoguang Hall to drink. After all, if she really wants to promote milk tea, she has to make it more suitable for the tastes of the people of the Dayuan Dynasty.

“This is the original milk tea. The other four are jasmine honey milk tea, caramel milk tea, brown sugar **** milk tea, and rose milk tea. You can try it first. After you taste it, tell me the advantages and disadvantages.”

The fifth prince and the sixth princess, “Okay!”

People in the Yaoguang Palace, “Slaves/servants obey orders.”

For a time, the entire Yaoguang Hall could only hear the sound of drinking milk tea.

After they all finished drinking, Tao Ti took a small notebook and wrote down their feedback seriously—

“Sister-in-law, I like this rose milk tea. It is fragrant. After drinking it, it seems to be filled with the aroma of roses from the inside out.” said the sixth princess.

“I like caramel. The sweetness is just right, and there is a slight burnt fragrance, which tastes very different.” said the fifth prince.

“The princess, the servants think this brown sugar **** milk tea is good, brown sugar nourishes the skin, and **** juice warms the stomach. If you drink brown sugar **** alone, the **** tastes strong and spicy. Now it is cooked with milk tea, it has the scent of ginger, but not the spicy taste of ginger. , It couldn’t be better for a woman to have a drink when she came to Guishui.” Linglong said.

“This Jasmine’s is good too!”

“The original flavor is the best and the most mellow!”

Listening to their babbled feedback, Tao Ti’s heart gradually became aware. At present, everyone seems to like milk tea. As for the taste, they are all eye-catching, and everyone likes everything.

She began to ask about some details, such as sweetness, and adjusting the ratio of milk to tea.

Yaoguang Hall was very busy here, and Pei Yan was not idle outside the palace.

After finishing his work in the Ministry of Engineering, he went straight to Prince Yu’s Mansion and went fishing with Old Prince Yu on the lake.

Prince Yu is still wearing a dark coarse cloth robe. The sun is getting brighter. He wears a straw hat on his head. He sits lazily, holding a fishing rod in his hand, and sighs: “You say you, it’s rare to come to my house. Come on, why don’t you bring your wife with you. If she comes, my old man can still be shy and let her make a whole fish banquet.”

“The weather is hot and the carriage is so boring, so I didn’t bring her here.” Pei Yan wore a bamboo-green robe and a straw hat of the same style as Wang Ye on his head, adding a bit of seclusion to a worldly expert.

Prince Yu snorted, “Don’t you want to be bored?”

Pei Yan showed a gentle smile, “In two days, Ati’s pastry shop in Guangdefang will open. The pastries in it are all made according to the recipe she wrote, not much worse than what she made herself. Sister-uncle may go buy some and try it.”

Prince Yu rolled his eyes, “You, the princess, can’t be idle.”

Pei Yan said, “She has something she likes, which is a good thing.”

Prince Yu shook his head and sighed, “I can tell, you are completely fascinated by your wife.”

Pei Yan didn’t refute, and he was silent for a moment, and brought the topic to business, talking about the upcoming transfer of Prince Yu to the post of Luoyang Mansion Shepherd.

Prince Yu stroked his gray beard, and said with emotion, “Your father is also serious about my old man. Knowing that my son is not up to date, he found a good job for him…”

“Uncle Shi has been in frequent contacts with Changzhou Pei recently, I don’t know if Grandun Sister knows about this?”

Prince Yu frowned.

“Sishu Gong, Gu knows that although you don’t need to ask about the government, you know exactly what the court is doing now. Gu is not dead yet, Pei Changzhou and Zhou’s family can’t hold back, as if the position of the prince is the flesh in their mouths; Ruo Gu It’s really ridiculous, aren’t they becoming more unscrupulous?”

“His Royal Highness, don’t say such discouraging words.”

“Sishu Gong, you don’t want to see my Pei family’s Jiangshan. Change your surname to Zhou in a few decades, right?”

This can be said to be rebellious. Lord Yu turned his face and stared at Pei Yan very seriously, “His Royal Highness, you are too worried.”

Pei Yan’s eyebrows were calm, and the corner of his mouth was pulled, “The lone has to worry.”

Lord Yu narrowed his muddy eyes and looked at Pei Yan carefully, as if he wanted to see him through.

Pei Yan didn’t hide, but calmly stared at him.

Ambition and ambition are all at a glance.

Lord Yu is also an old man who has experienced three dynasties. He lived safely in the royal family to such a long time. He has already cultivated to become a man. He soon understood, his eyes flashed with deep surprise, and his lips trembled slightly. “His Royal Highness… Yan’er, you can really bear it!”

He sighed heavily, and finally cursed fiercely, “Oh, your mother and queen are cruel, and your father is a bastard! The evil they made has hurt you.”

Hearing this, Pei Yan’s eyebrows frowned and said solemnly, “Sixth Uncle, did she really die of my mother’s queen?”

Prince Yu was taken aback, abruptly avoiding his gaze, “Yeah.”

Pei Yan took his reaction into his eyes, pondered for a moment, and said, “One day the father was drunk and he said that the queen committed suicide by taking poison.”

The hand of Lord Yu holding the fishing rod trembles suddenly, and his voice is old, “That must be your father is drunk and talking nonsense.”

Seeing Sister-in-law refused to tell the truth to himself, Pei Yan couldn’t forcefully ask–

Just like the old mother Lan, his uncle, Uncle Feng, and even the father and the emperor next to his mother, they all knew that the mother had committed suicide by taking poison, but no one was willing to tell him the reason behind it.

He has checked, but after so many years, the matter has involved the first queen, and the investigations have been conducted and the results have been very small.

Perhaps it was because he saw that his investigation was too hard. On the death day of the queen’s mother a few years ago, Mother Lan gave him an ambiguous answer——

“Your mother felt that being a queen was too tired, so she chose to be relieved.”

Pei Yan seemed to understand a bit, but also a bit difficult to understand.

At this time, his fishing rod moved.

After recovering, he quickly pulled back his pole, and he caught a lively grass carp.

Prince Yu said on the side, “Yan’er, how long will it take for you to plan?”

Pei Yan said, “October next year at the latest.”

In October next year, it will be the death date for Pei Yan to be sentenced by Qin Tianjian.

Lord Yu raised his eyes and looked at the red sun falling in the distance, slowly put away the fishing rod, and slowly said, “Then I will hold on to this old bone…”

Pei Yan’s eyes moved slightly.

Prince Yu turned his head and smiled at him with a bleak smile, “As long as I’m still here, Prince Yu’s Mansion must listen to me. It just so happens that I may not have been to Luoyang for a long time, so I will live with them this time in Luoyang. They all say,’I was born in Suzhou and Hangzhou and buried in Beimang.’ Maybe I can also be buried in Beimanshan, occupying a treasured land of geomantic omen.”

What else Pei Yan wanted to say, Lord Yu got up first and said loudly, “Go, if you stay for dinner tonight, you will use your fish, let’s drink the fish soup in the stew pot.”

Pei Yan stepped forward to support him, her long eyelashes drooping slightly, “Yes.”

——

Just after a pot of fish soup was made, Pei Yan just took a sip, and he saw Fu Xirui wandering anxiously at the door, looking tangled as he wanted to disturb but didn’t dare to disturb.

It was Prince Yu who raised his eyelids and called people in.

Fu Xirui walked in quickly and hurriedly bowed, holding the whisk tightly with both hands, wrinkling her white face into a big thin-skinned bun, and said anxiously, “His Royal Highness, the news from the palace just now said yes. Something happened to the princess!”

Pei Yan’s hand holding the chopsticks gave a sudden stop.

The eyes that were gentle and smiling at the last moment suddenly became sharp and cold in the next moment.
