After being a widow, the empress dowager was favored by the powerful ministers

Chapter 85 Really sick?

After not hearing Pei Ci's response for a long time, Sheng Baoling raised his eyes to look at Pei Ci, but saw that he was only staring vertically, eating without saying a word.

For a moment, I thought it was because I called him suddenly and abruptly, and I felt a little annoyed. After all, men and women are not intimate, so how could I call him by his name like this, so I couldn't help asking apologetically, "But I was abrupt, if I don't like it, I will Don't call me that way anymore."

Pei Ci was still immersed in the excitement brought about by the "Xuan Jin", but now he was pulled back by Sheng Baoling's words.

Pei Ci almost subconsciously blurted out the words, "There is nothing I don't like."

Sheng Baoling looked at his expression, except for indifference, he seemed to be like this. He didn't have any expression on what he said or did. He felt cold, as if he was born like this, without any extra emotions.

"But I look at you and don't seem very happy."

Pei Ci was slightly taken aback, and then thought of what Sheng Baoling had said to him last time when he was in Pei's residence...

He twitched the corner of his mouth a little stiffly, "I'm not unhappy."

The smile is shallow, because the corners of the mouth are stiff, it looks a little strange, it's really not something that makes people feel happy when you look at it.

But Sheng Baoling looked at it now, but couldn't help but curled his lips and smiled, "Actually, you look pretty when you smile sometimes."

Such a compliment comes from the heart.

With a clear voice and a sincere tone, anyone who listened to it could tell that Sheng Baoling admired Pei Ci.

Pei Ci in front of him could also tell that he didn't know how to react for a long time.

Sheng Baoling stared at Pei Ci suddenly for a long time. For some reason, Pei Ci in front of him seemed to be in good spirits, better than the previous days, and completely different from the time when he came here.

Really sick?

But if anyone is sick, it will be fine in less than an hour?
With such doubts, Sheng Baoling wanted to ask, but it was difficult to ask.

After all, Pei Ci has no reason to pretend to be sick, is it just to avoid going to court?
But he is not such a person who abolishes the public because of personal interests. He has always regarded the affairs of the court more important than anything else, and it is impossible to say that he is sick.

It wasn't until a lunch, when Pei Ci wiped his mouth with a handkerchief, that he paused with his fingertips when he met Sheng Baoling's scrutinizing gaze, and then he remembered that he was still "sick on the couch".

He covered his lips with a veil, coughed a few times in a low and restrained manner, and even his face seemed to turn pale.

Sheng Baoling's confusion was immediately dispelled by these two coughs, "Since you are sick, you should go back to bed and lie down, don't catch a cold again."

This dining place is ventilated, which is really not good for Pei Ci.

This sick person wants to hide from the wind.

Pei Ci nodded slightly, and with Sheng Baoling's support, he lay back on the couch.

It wasn't until Sheng Baoling said goodbye and walked out of the courtyard that Pei Ci lifted the quilt and got up, walked out of the house slowly, looked outside, the scene in the courtyard, he seemed to be able to see her walking outside step by step, and finally returned to the figure in the palace.

The guards at the side watched Pei Ci come out, so they just dared to stay outside and didn't dare to go forward at all.

Pei Ci stood at the door for a long time, and finally returned to the room, but did not lie down on the couch, just stood, looking at everything in the room, every corner seemed to have her shadow, just looking at the room like this You can think of her every move and every move.

She has a very good-looking smile, which was discovered when she first met her in the Sheng Mansion a few years ago.

At that time, she was just a little girl, and when she laughed, it just made people feel innocent and warmed her heart.

Now, she is already a big girl, the beauty looks back and smiles, looking forward to brilliance, it seems that his heart is not his own.

Pei Ci found himself becoming more and more greedy now that Sheng Baoling was approaching him bit by bit and showing favor to him.

I want to see more, not just the way she laughs, but also more, crying, wanting to stop... At the same time, I want more.

But can he get it? With the warning in his previous life, this time, he took every step carefully, arranged properly, and took precautions, but he couldn't treat Sheng Baoling rationally.

There is still a smell of medicine in the air, which shows how bitter the bowl of medicine was just now.

But at the moment, Pei Ci's heart and mouth are full of sweetness, so sweet that it seems to be filled with honey, so sweet that it is bubbling.

The corners of his mouth curled up, he sat down at the table, took out the pen, ink, paper and inkstone, and drew Sheng Baoling's smiling appearance just now, with his eyebrows stretched out, with a little bit of smile on his face.

At this time, Pei Wan was sitting at the table, unable to recover from the impact of the scene she saw outside her brother's house for a long time. She knew that her brother was good-looking, even if it was a man, she would pay more attention to it. Knowing how beautiful Sheng Lang is, even ordinary women are not as good as him.

But she never knew that one day, these two people would feed like no one else.

The point is...it looks pretty good.

Realizing that she was thinking wildly again, Pei Wan raised her hand and patted her face vigorously. With two "slaps", the maid next to her was startled, and she stared at her eldest girl for a while. This adult is sick. Could it be that even the girl is sick?
Otherwise, how can you beat yourself right now?
Do you want to invite the doctor to come and have a look?
The maid was troubled.

At this time, Pei Wan shook her head again, looked at the maid next to her, "Take a pen, ink, paper and inkstone."

The maid was taken aback, "Miss, is this what you want?"

Pei Wan poured a cup of tea to moisten her throat. At the same time, she also wanted to take advantage of the coolness to clear her head. "My parents have been away from home for many years, and it's time to come back and take a look."

The maid's eyes lit up, and the girl thought she was going to write back to the old lady!
"Slave, go here!"

After the maid left, Pei Wan simply put her chin on the table, lay her whole body on the table, and yawned. If her parents didn't come back, she might have to go to the Sheng Mansion to propose marriage later.

She also did this to bring her elder brother back to the right path, and it was not considered beating a mandarin duck.

...

Before returning to the palace, Sheng Baoling saw the vendors setting up stalls, stopped, and looked at all kinds of hairpins and accessories, all carved out of wood, exquisite in appearance, although not as good as the carpenters in the palace, but this style is novel nice.

She picked out two hairpins and a pen holder the size of a pinky finger. The corners of her mouth were curved, which was so pretty.

I was so happy in my heart that I didn't even need to look for money.

But at the moment when she turned around, she almost bumped into someone and was blocked by a black shadow. She subconsciously stepped back two times to avoid the person, and when she looked again, she found a pair that she was quite familiar with. And really unfamiliar eyes.

"Little Master Sheng, what a coincidence." Lou Shang had good looks, and his voice was clear and cold, but extremely polite.

We met here, Sheng Baoling was not good, so he just left, and slightly replied, "Mr. Lou."
