I was stunned and blinked hard, just like I saw Nangong Lizhu appearing just now, thinking that I had read it wrong.
But it was him.
In an instant, he had already walked up the steps and stepped in. Looking at the mess of cups and plates on the table, the originally calm expression on his face slightly relaxed at this time, and even looked at me with a smile: "I'm not full yet, you've finished it."
“…”
I'm still a little unreliable.
Didn’t he accompany Nangong Lizhu back to Yuhua Palace? Why did he come back again?
And, are you back so soon?
As if he heard what I was saying in my heart, he walked over calmly and sat back on the seat just now, and said with a smile: "I said that this is the first meal I moved into Yihua Palace. I will eat with you. I will not keep my word."
“…”
"You guys left me."
“…”
I didn't know what to say for a moment.
Madam Wu stood beside her and said overjoyedly: "Your Majesty, the girl has just finished eating. I immediately asked them to send some hot dishes and hot rice."
“No need.”
Pei Yuanhao reached out and put it on the table, then looked at the dishes on the table, and said, "This soup is still hot, just use the soup to make rice, so make half a bowl of it for me."
When Madam Wu heard this, she looked at him hesitantly and looked at me again. After all, it was cold dishes and cold rice. If something went wrong with the emperor eating like this, she would be beheaded. Pei Yuanhao ignored it and urged, "Hurry up!"
Before she could do anything, Miaoyan's voice had already come from inside: "Ah, I heard my father's voice!"
Immediately afterwards, Su Su's busy voice: "Little ancestor, don't run around."
While speaking, I heard Miaoyan running out. I saw Pei Yuanhao sitting by the table, and my eyes suddenly lit up.
"father!"
When Pei Yuanhao turned around, she had already jumped over happily and threw herself over him. Her hands were hanging on his neck and shoulders, like a close cat. Pei Yuanhao smiled so hard that his face seemed to be blooming, while another little flower bloomed on Miaoyan's face. She smiled happily: "You are back! Miaoyan thought you wouldn't come back if you went to that lady!"
"Who said it? Dad promised to be with you today, and he will definitely be with you."
"hey-hey."
Miaoyan was very happy, and he leaned against his neck with both hands, leaned over and kissed him hard on the face.
Pei Yuanhao was stunned by her kiss, opened his eyes wide and looked at her for a while, and then smiled.
There are probably no other children in this palace. Even if the prince is deeply impressed, even if Princess Ling is attached to him, the emperor's father, and she will show him so clearly and clearly, rely on him, blame him, like him, and blame him. All of this seems to make him unable to let go.
Pei Yuanhao reached out and carried her to his knees and sat down. The two of them laughed and made a fuss for a while.
I sat next to me, watching, and not talking.
Madam Wu finally took the courage to make half a bowl of rice that had already been cold and served it to him. Pei Yuanhao took it. As soon as he picked up a vegetable heart and wanted to eat it, Miaoyan said, "I want to eat it."
Pei Yuanhao couldn't help laughing. As soon as the chopsticks turned, the things came to her mouth.
She picked up another piece of rabbit meat, and she yelled to eat, and the food was put into her mouth.
After a while, she had eaten several bites of the dishes. Pei Yuanhao seemed to have forgotten that he hadn't eaten yet, so he fed her one by one, and the soup and rice in the bowl completely cooled down. After a while, they both seemed to feel something. They turned to look at me together, looking at me frowning.
Pei Yuanhao's face still had a smile on his face: "What's wrong?"
“…”
I suppressed myself from having an attack and just stared at Miaoyan: "How much have you eaten just now?"
When she heard this, she immediately raised her shoulders and hurried into Pei Yuanhao's arms.
"I said I had finished eating, so what are you doing now?"
“…”
"I just washed my hands and rinsed my mouth. I shouldn't eat anymore after I got off the table. Don't you know these rules?"
“…”
Seeing that her head was about to step into her chest, Pei Yuanhao held the bowl and chopsticks, raised his head and said to me: "Okay, the child is still young, don't blame her like this."
"She's not young anymore."
"It's still young, it's still young."
He seemed to be a friend. While talking, he put down the bowls and chopsticks and patted Miaoyan's back: "Okay, your mother is going to get angry, and my dad dares not feed you anymore. Go down and rinse your mouth. In the future, if you want to eat enough on the table, you still eat after you get off the table, it's a no-rules, and my dad won't agree. Do you understand?"
Miaoyan responded in a low voice, then turned around and looked at me: "Mom, Miaoyan knew she was wrong."
Looking at her cautious look, I couldn't get angry after all, so I just sighed: "Go quickly, wash your hands and rinse your mouth!"
She said "um" and hurriedly crawled out of Pei Yuanhao's arms. Su Su came over and held her, and the two of them slipped in like burning their butts.
The two of us were left sitting at the table, and he looked at me with a smile on his face.
"Don't treat her so fiercely."
"I don't."
"I said no, you were like the King Kong in the temple, she was still young."
"..." I was too lazy to argue with him whether a ten-year-old girl was older or younger.
"It is normal for children to be full. When I was a child, Lao Wu and others often went to the imperial kitchen to steal food."
I originally wanted to say that it was because the Empress Dowager didn't see it at Linshui Pagoda, so she didn't scold you, but looked up at him and didn't say this, just pursed her lips.
He smiled again, "Didn't we agree to do it? For her illness, I should pamper her well these days. If you are so cruel to her, I'm afraid she--"
I said, "Pampering is one thing, but you can't spoil it out. The rules still need to be said."
"I know," he said, "so you see, haven't I let her go down too?"
I sighed.
He then smiled and picked up the bowl again. This time, the soup and rice inside were already cold. He only took a bite and frowned. The madam Wu next to him hurriedly said, "Master, I should go to the imperial kitchen and let them come over with hot dishes and rice again. If you eat it coldly, your body will not be able to stand it."
Pei Yuanhao thought for a while and then put down the bowls and chopsticks: "Well, don't take too much."
"yes."
Madam Wu responded and ran out.
Susu had already brought Miaoyan back to her own room, and now, there were only me and him left in the room.
He still looked at me with a smile, but the atmosphere was a little different from what he had just seen.
I probably know what he is going to say.
Sure enough, just a moment of quietness, he said, "I just sent her back..."
“…”
"It's because of her illness, it's just right."
“…”
"Her illness is because of me. I suffered a lot back then. This time, I almost killed her. Now she comes to see me. I can't let her walk back alone."
“…”
I was silent all the time, and at this time I looked up at him: "Your Majesty is explaining to the civilian girl?"
"certainly."
"Your Majesty doesn't need to explain."
"Why?" he said, his brows frowned unconsciously, and the deep-burned aura in his eyes also faintly revealed: "What I told you that day, I'm going to you-"
I raised my head and interrupted him: "Does your Majesty feel that I have done something wrong just now?"
He froze slightly.
I smiled faintly, reached out to pick up the wine pot, poured wine into the cup, and said softly: "Your Majesty told the people's daughter that if your Majesty is good to the people, the people's daughter will bear it; if your Majesty is not good to the people's daughter, you will make a fuss with Your Majesty, but the people's daughter did not make a fuss with Your Majesty."
His eyes suddenly became darker, and he looked at me and didn't speak.
I could already feel his anger, but I gently delivered the glass of poured wine to him.
He was stunned again and looked at me.
I looked at him with a smile: "If His Majesty really didn't send the concubine back just now, the young lady wouldn't make a fuss. Just--"
My face turned slightly darker: "Men women will feel heartbroken."
"Hailed?"
He frowned and immediately said, "Do you think I am indifferent?"
"If Your Majesty doesn't go to see the Imperial Concubine..." I glanced at his slightly blue face, and didn't finish it, but just smiled faintly: "No matter what, Your Majesty is going to see it off."
Even though I said so, his face still didn't look very good.
I probably knew that I had offended him today, but in order not to offend him thoroughly, I shut up.
The two of them became quiet.
After being silent for a long time, no more Miaoyan sounds came from inside. It should be that Su Su had taken her to sleep, while Madam Wu was probably still guarding the imperial kitchen. He and I sat quietly at the table, facing the remaining soup on the table.
The atmosphere, which was not very warm at this time, became more and more frozen and cold.
After a while, I finally heard him sigh softly.
“Light.”
I looked up at him.
But he didn't look at me, but just clenched his hand slightly into a fist and placed it on the edge of the table. His finger bones were thick, but clenching it into a fist like this gave people the illusion of powerlessness. After a moment of silence, he continued: "About her, I actually have something I have always wanted to tell you."
I frowned and lowered my head.
He looked at me: "Don't you want to listen?"
I smiled: "If Your Majesty doesn't let the lie, then the lie does not want to listen."
"……Why?"
"The affairs of others have nothing to do with the people's daughter. The only thing that the people's daughter cares about is their own daughter, and the land under her feet is three parts of the land."
He said, "If, what do I have to tell you?"
I said, "That girl can only not take it to her heart."
"Don't you go to your heart?"
