Chapter 10

There was a lot of snow that year.

In the twelfth lunar month, it was very cold, so he went to the small kitchen to steal some steamed buns to make his mother full.

But when he ran back happily, he heard the sound of whips slapping inside the door.

"Say! Do you want to run away again!"

"Foolish things, and seduce men, shameless!"

"I beat you to death!"

……

There was the sound of dirty cursing, the man must have hit the mother again.

He rushed in like crazy, and pushed the man away violently.

Unexpectedly, the man was mad and beat him together. In the end, the thin mother was beaten to death because she was protecting her, and the man gave up and left.

Later, he kowtowed for a day and a night until his head was bleeding, so he asked a doctor to come to see a doctor for his mother.

But when they arrived, they only saw someone roll up the cold mother in a broken mat and discard it without dignity.

That night, he took a knife and killed that man, his so-called father.

The 15-year-old boy was hungry all the year round and his body was thin. Naturally, he was no match for those who captured him.

He fell in front of a sedan chair, and the girl who came out of the sedan chair was delicate and graceful, and her unattainable holiness was his most yearning desire.

The girl looked at him and said softly, "Are you okay?"

But Pei Ji at that time didn't even have the courage to raise his head, he felt that he was not worthy.

Seeing this, the girl called the maid to fetch some silver for him, but her tone was apologetic: "I didn't bring too much silver with me when I went out today, I guess it's not enough..."

After a pause, she took off the jade pendant around her waist: "You have pawned this jade pendant, find a doctor to have a good look at it."

The boy didn't raise his head until the girl left.

That was his first meeting with the princess.The little princess was admired by the stars since she was a child, and she was pampered and raised. Naturally, she has never seen the evil of human nature, and her temperament was raised to be innocent and pure.

She has done many good deeds, so she will not remember that boy, because that is just an insignificant one of her many charity.

But when Pei Ji came, he would never forget it for the rest of his life.

Looking at the confused girl in front of him, Pei Ji chuckled lightly: "It's fine if you don't remember, as long as the princess remembers Pei Ji now."

As soon as the words fell, Wei Yunzhu was picked up by the man's waist, and the whole person was placed on the soft bed.

The man took advantage of the situation, his eyes filled with desire: "Princess, these few days I have been a widow, I miss you so much, and I feel very uncomfortable..."

Wei Yunzhu subconsciously reached out to put his hand on his chest, his eyes flickered, as if he wanted to say something.

"The princess will reward you with a chance to ask the minister to serve the princess, okay?"

There was panting in Pei Ji's voice, he was indeed patient to the extreme.

But the girl came softly and cautiously: "Are you...are you okay there?"

As soon as these words came out, Wei Yunzhu was so ashamed that she couldn't bear it. She was really afraid that she would hurt him badly that day. After all, this man's temperament has always been vindictive.

Hearing this, Pei Ji chuckled lightly, and the corners of his mouth were tainted with anger: "Well, Zhuzhu can feel it for herself."

……

Get up the next morning.

Pei Ji was undressing, but when he saw the little girl's white ears, he thought of making fun of her.

"come over."

Wei Yunzhu couldn't figure out his intention, so naturally he didn't want to go there, but turned his face away and didn't look at him anymore.

"The princess?"

He reminded again unhurriedly that there was already a faint threat in the tone.

That heavy gaze made Wei Yunzhu unable to breathe, so he could only dawdly approach him.

Here, Pei Ji stretched out his hand to wrap her waist, and said in a low voice, "Help me tie my belt."

Sure enough, the little girl's ears were slightly red, but her eyes showed resistance. Pei Ji's eyes turned cold when she looked at it.

Wei Yunzhu looked into the man's eyes, although he was smiling, but this was a sign of anger, and it was a good strategy to follow him.

Then she took the jade belt, but she had never served anyone before, she tied it clumsily, and finally tied it up.

He hurriedly picked up the crown on the table, trying to help him put it on, but after thinking about it for a long time, he couldn't fix it.

Pei Ji approached her ear mischievously: "I'll teach you."

He put his hands against hers and put it on, but Wei Yunzhu found that the crown was crooked.

She stretched out her hand to gently adjust it, but when she touched the hairpin used to fix it in the crown, she felt a little heartbroken, and straightened her fingers vigorously, and the hairpin grazed Pei Ji's scalp obliquely.

When she was proud, she met Pei Ji's half-closed eyes and hesitated: "It's getting late, don't...don't miss the morning."

Pei Ji caught this cunning little fox, and his eyes raised dangerous arcs: "How to undress a man, you have to practice hard."

Li Yi, who had been waiting at the door for a long time, rubbed his hands anxiously. If he didn't leave, he would really miss the morning time.

Finally, Mr. Shoufu came, and he quickly followed behind him, but was suddenly shocked.

How come there are blood beads dripping from the adult's head!
At the same time, Gu Yanyi, who had been in Yong'an Alley, looked at Bianzi who wrote Pei's Mansion, and hid himself in a corner.

He watched Pei Ji come out from inside with a happy face, and looked at the sedan chair he was leaving, Gu Yanyi clenched his hands into fists, and his whole body trembled slightly due to extreme anger.

Yesterday, my mother was carried back, and she was quite frightened.

Not only did Pei Ji take his wife away, but he also bullied his mother, which is unbearable!

At the end of the morning court that day, all the officials were in panic.

On the one hand, the king of Yue is eyeing him covetously, and on the other hand, the Lord Shoufu vigorously supports the recovery of the treasury arrears in order to clear up the officialdom.

The Gu family was the first to bear the brunt of the household affairs, and Mr. Shoufu dealt a heavy blow to the Gu family. But at this juncture, other aristocratic families are also anxious to protect themselves, fearing that no one would dare to cause trouble again.

**
In the evening, when Wei Yunzhu hadn't eaten a few mouthfuls of dinner, Li Yi came over and told, "Princess, Lord Shoufu is waiting for you outside."

Wei Yunzhu simply tidied up, and then went out with Li Yi. The reason was that Pei Ji had said on the bed last night that he would take him out for a stroll today.

As soon as he left the mansion, he saw that the man had been waiting for a long time.

Unexpectedly, Wei Yunzhu was picked up by his waist and carried into the sedan chair.

She looked a little annoyed, this is Yong'an Lane, there are people coming and going, and those maids and servants are also there!
So she simply stayed away from him and took the same sedan chair with him, Wei Yunzhu only felt a little suffocated and out of breath.

Pei Ji looked at the little hedgehog who deliberately stayed away from him, raised his hand and patted the place next to him, the meaning was obvious.

Wei Yunzhu glanced at it, stubbornly refusing to go over.

Pei Ji bent slightly: "Princess, you are disobedient again."

Wei Yunzhu bit her lower lip with her teeth, she didn't want to go over, lest that person make another move later!

"If you don't come here again, don't blame Wei Chen for showing the current identity of the princess in front of the entire Chang'an City people."

Under the thick threat, Wei Yunzhu turned his face away, and awkwardly moved to his side.

The man put his arms around her waist, and after getting closer, the previous anger seemed to dissipate in an instant: "This is the only way to be obedient."

"There's a new tea house on Hanguang Street, and the Huangmei Opera inside is very good. I'll take the Princess to have a look."

Go to a play?

Wei Yunzhu couldn't figure out what this man was thinking, but he was so angry that he refused to speak.

"Why does the princess always refuse to smile at Wei Chen?"

"The princess laughed at Gu Shilang many times before..."

It was just nonsense, why did it involve Gu Yanyi again, Wei Yunzhu opened his mouth, intending to say something.

But before he finished speaking, Pei Ji gently pressed a finger on her lips, and then he took out a mask as if by magic.

The mask is in the shape of half a jade rabbit fan, inlaid with red emerald beads, and the side is carved with hibiscus, small and delicate.

"No one can see my things."

Unreasonable and overbearing remarks, but Wei Yunzhu also felt that maybe he was trying to protect his identity from being discovered.

Because Hanguang Street is full of bazaars, and it is bustling with people at night, they can only get off their sedan chairs and walk this section of the road.

Pei Ji held the little girl's hand, but the little girl resisted very much.

Wei Yunzhu was taught since she was a child that she needs to be generous and decent at all times, and now she is ashamed to hold hands with a man in such a large crowd.

Then he broke free with all his strength: "I... I can walk by myself."

Pei Ji glanced at his empty hand: "There is a lot of traffic here, fish and dragons are mixed together, if the princess and the minister get separated, or the princess runs away, where can the minister go to find someone?"

Wei Yunzhu could only helplessly say: "No, I will follow you closely."

"My humble minister has always been suspicious."

His tone was like that of a naughty child, his eyes were smiling, but the ends of his eyes raised a dangerous arc, and the palm he stretched out towards Wei Yunzhu was full of inexplicable pressure.

It's like the calm before the storm.

Wei Yunzhu paused, then put his hand on it, since he was still wearing a mask anyway.

Today the teahouse was crowded with people at most, and there was a lot of noise all around, Pei Ji found a good seat, the two of them arrived for a while, the play started.

At the end of the song, Pei Ji held Wei Yunzhu's hand and did not let go. He looked at the crying little girl beside her.

Said softly: "Isn't the ending good?"

Wei Yunzhu subconsciously turned around and shook his head: "Fortunately, the final result is good."

"If I knew it was like this, I shouldn't have brought the princess to watch this play, and now it has caused the princess to cry again."

"Princess, tell me, what will happen to you and me?"

Wei Yunzhu didn't expect him to ask such a question, and he didn't know how to answer for a while, so he just looked at him with a pair of clear eyes.
