After Pei Yu finished the things in his hands, he picked up the embroidery needle again. It was not as heavy as when he first learned it. He did not embroider directly on the red veil, but took out a handkerchief to embroider.

Shen Li came closer to take a look, "Ayu, you embroidered this...mandarin duck very well."

Pei Yu paused, looked up, and said in a depressed tone: "Ali, I was talking about the eagle, can't you see it?"

Shen Li: He is short-sighted, but I really didn’t see it.

"Or, you should stop embroidering!"

Pei Yu raised his eyebrows, "Why not embroider? I, Pei Yu, have never given up so easily on anything I want to do."

"Okay, go ahead."

After an hour, Pei Yu looked at the handkerchief he had embroidered with satisfaction. Although it was not entirely satisfactory, it was already very good.

Shen Li: "Although it doesn't look like an eagle, you have managed to embroider its domineering look."

Pei Yu pulled her over and held her on his lap. "Ali, if you want to laugh, just laugh. Isn't it uncomfortable to hold it in?"

Shen Li shook her head and said nothing. Ah Yu was just learning embroidery for herself, how could she laugh? That was too unkind.

The idea was good in my mind, but it was ruined in the next second.

"Pfft~"

"Ha ha ha ha……"

Pei Yu looked at the masterpiece on the table. Well, it was indeed a little funny.

Shen Li only smiled for a while and then stopped. Fearing that she would hurt the man's damn self-esteem, she refused to continue embroidering.

"Ayu, you are much better than me. I couldn't embroider anything the first time and my hands were full of needle holes."

This time Pei Yu could tell that Ah Li really wanted to praise herself.

When Shen Li walked out of Prince Jingnan's Mansion, the sunset outside had already covered the sky. She took a carriage and soon returned to General Zhennan's Mansion.

As for her Princess Mansion, it is still under renovation.

Pei Yu was almost obsessed with embroidery, and all the servants in Prince Jingnan's mansion knew about it.

However, the servants in the palace had tacitly agreed not to spread the news. If it were to get out, wouldn't it damage the reputation of their own prince?

Shen Li was dragged by her mother to pack her dowry these days, and had no time to look for Pei Yu. It was four days later when she finished packing.

Remembering that he hadn't visited A Yu for several days, he climbed over the wall of the general's mansion at night and came to Pei Yu's study.

She didn't come in sneakily, but came in openly and brazenly.

When the secret guards in the dark of Prince Jingnan's Palace saw him, they didn't even bother to stop him, and didn't even bother to show their bodies. Anyway, Princess Hui'an already knew the layout of the palace and knew where to find the prince.

Shen Li looked at the study room which was brightly lit by candlelight. Without using her mental power to check, she thought about it in her mind. What was A Yu doing in there now?

"Squeak~"

"Go out and don't bother me."

Shen Li closed the door with her backhand and approached quietly. Pei Yu frowned, and when he raised his head, he did not forget to say: "Didn't I say..."

The cold look on his face quietly faded away when he saw Shen Li, and his temperament became gentler at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"Ali, why are you here?"

Shen Li pretended to go out, "You just asked me to go out, I'm going out now."

Pei Yu stood up as soon as he saw her, and quickly reached out to hold her.

"Ali, I'm not talking about you, come and see if I've made much progress?"

Pei Yu pulled Shen Li to the desk. His desk was now surrounded by embroidery thread and cloth, and even the pens, ink and inkstone had been moved away.

Shen Li saw him pick up a handkerchief on which was embroidered a lifelike white pear blossom.

"Ayu, did you embroider this?"

Shen Li admitted that she was surprised when she saw it for a moment and thought it was done by an embroiderer.

"Well, how's it going?"

"Ayu, you are so awesome!"

Shen Li looked at the handkerchief from head to toe. It was truly amazing that it could be made into this in just a few days.

A smile broke out on Pei Yu's face. To hear Ali say this, it seemed that all his efforts over the past few days were not in vain.

Pei Yu looked at a book spread out in front of Shen Li, "Ah Li, take a look at the pattern on the red veil. What pattern do you want?"

Shen Li leaned over to take a look. There were mandarin ducks playing in the water, a dragon and a phoenix, twin lotus flowers, and some beautiful auspicious clouds and happiness characters.

They were all festive. I asked the man next to me, "Ayu, which one do you like best?"

Pei Yu looked at several kinds and pointed at the lotus pattern. "This one looks better."

Shen Li nodded. She also thought that the lotus pattern was the most beautiful. It was not too simple, nor too complicated. After looking around, this was the only one that suited her best.

"It seems that Ayu and I have the same vision."

Pei Yu put his things down. He has been concentrating on embroidery these days and has no time to see Shen Li. His longing for her is growing wildly.

Holding her and sitting on the chair, Shen Li reached out to touch the dark circles under his eyes, and suddenly felt that the decision she had made was wrong.

"Ayu, didn't you get enough sleep in the past three days?"

Pei Yu opened his eyes and looked at her, with many red bloodshot eyes.

Shen Li hissed, "Pei Zian, forget about not being able to embroider it, but you're not sleeping like this, are you trying to make me depressed... Ugh!"

Realizing what she was about to say and not wanting to hear what came next, Pei Yu simply blocked her mouth and absorbed her breath bit by bit.

Shen Li leaned in his arms and gasped. Why do girls always suffer losses? It seems that men have a natural advantage in these matters.

"Good Ah Li, I know my limits. How about I take you to the banquet tomorrow?"

"I don't want to go."

With Shen Li's current status, she naturally received many invitations, but she did not attend any of them.

"If you don't want to go, forget it."

Shen Li thought about it for a while and finally nodded in agreement. When she married into the Jingnan Palace in the future, such banquets would be inevitable.

Pei Yu naturally saw her reluctance and whispered, "If Ah Li doesn't like it, don't force it. It's just a party, so don't go if you don't want to."

Shen Li asked him: "What kind of banquet is it?"

"The autumn banquet held by Prince Yan's Mansion."

Shen Li immediately became interested, after all, there was an acquaintance in Prince Yan's Mansion.

"go."

This time it wasn't forced at all.

"Okay, I'll pick you up at the General's Mansion tomorrow."

"it is good."

The two of them hugged each other quietly for a while, and finally Shen Li pushed Pei Yu away, "Okay, it's too late, I have to go back, you should go to bed quickly, you can't stay up late, if I see black and blue under your eyes tomorrow, you're done."

While speaking, he clenched his fist to threaten him. Pei Yu chuckled and replied "Okay".

"Don't follow me!"

Shen Li wanted to climb over the wall and return to the general's mansion, but Pei Yu was following her.

"Ali, I'll take you back."

"No, I know the way."

Pei Yu refused, "Ali, it's quite dangerous in the capital, I'm worried about you going back alone."

"Okay, let's go."

When Shen Li returned to the outer wall of the General's Mansion, she reached out and grabbed Pei Yu, "Okay, I'm here, you should go back quickly, it's already very late."

"Do you want to come in and sit for a while, and then I'll take you back?"
