As soon as Qian Ning left, Liu Jin lost his left hand and right arm in the palace, so he couldn't help restraining himself a lot.Although the emperor is still drinking and drunk, and the power of the supervisor of ceremonies is still in his hands, Liu Jin is still sensitive to the gains and losses of the king's heart and the warmth and coldness of human relationships.

Until around the Dragon Boat Festival, he sent another person to the Leopard Room.At that time Xiao Huanyun was also there, pouring ice into the half-person-high jade urn, so that the wine and fruit could be eaten under ice.

Liu Jin stepped forward and whispered "Master", then turned around, rolled her eyes around Xiao Huanyun, and said with a smile, "My aunt is here today."

Xiao Huanyun was only wearing a white shirt and a purple skirt with jade bisected around his waist.She usually had a cold face, and she bowed slightly in response to "Eunuch Liu".Zhu Houzhao always said that looking at Xiao Niang's face, no matter how hot it was, she would cool down in that sweltering summer season.

At this time, she narrowed her eyes slightly, looking at the person behind Liu Jin, her expression was even more gloomy.Only Liu Jin said: "Master, this is Mr. Jiang Binjiang, the commander of the Weizhou Guard. He has always wanted to be filial to the Lord, and this servant is also touched by his sincerity, so I brought him to kowtow to the Lord."

Zhu Houzhao was only wearing a dragon robe, leaning on the brocade cushion, looking up and down at Jiang Bin.Liu Jin waved his hand, and the man knelt and climbed forward: "Chen Jiangbin bows down to my emperor, long live."

Jiang Bin was also clever. He had heard about Qian Ning's matter for a long time, and seeing how polite Liu Jin was to Xiao Huanyun, he turned around and kowtowed: "I met Aunt Xiao."

Xiao Huanyun sneered, snapped the lid on the ice urn casually, and walked leisurely to Zhu Houzhao's side, his skirt swaying slightly: "I kowtowed my head, I showed my filial piety, Master Jiang, is there anything else?"

"I do have something to do." Jiang Bin raised his head, and when he saw his sword-like brows and star-eyed eyes, Zhu Houzhao was also a little curious.

"Say."

"Wei Chen has been stationed at the border all year round. The Tatars seem to have made some moves recently, and..." He walked a few steps closer and whispered: "King Anhua... seems to have evil intentions." Take out a notebook and hand it in: "The specific border matters have all been written in the memorial. Please read it to the emperor."

The laziness in Zhu Houzhao's eyes faded away, Xiao Huanyun took the folder and handed it over.

In the afternoon, Xiao Huanyun hurried back to the Empress Dowager's Palace.The agarwood was burned out, and under the honey-closed satin curtain, Empress Dowager Zhang twirled a Buddhist bead.

When she heard the news that the emperor had accepted his adoptive son, she hurriedly called Xiao Huanyun back.

"Queen Mother." Xiao Huanyun's expression was also not very good-looking: "The person recommended by Liu Jin is a frontier general named Jiang Bin. He has great insights into military affairs. I like it very much. What's more, he wrote the memorial. To the point, every word and every word is my Ming Dynasty. When my concubine was leaving, the master just discussed with him about the battle at the border... nothing else."

"Did the emperor say anything else?"

"Promote him to be the left governor, and accompany him in the car."

The queen mother sighed softly, her eyes wandering far away. "Just don't make another Channing."

Xiao Huanyun nodded: "The concubine will watch carefully." She stepped forward to help the queen mother and walked outside the palace.

The queen mother only patted her hand once and for all, seeing that the jade bibi that the emperor rewarded her was still hanging on her waist, and said in a low voice: "Yun'er, the Ai family kept you in the palace from a young age, can you complain about the Ai family?"

Xiao Huanyun's eyes were terrified, and he knelt straight down: "I have never complained against the Queen Mother, and the Empress Dowager appreciates it, and let me take charge of the Shang Palace. I am already grateful."

"Good boy, get up." The queen mother smiled and said, "The Ai family wanted to give you more. But now it seems that the Ai family was wrong back then."

"The Empress Dowager..." Xiao Huanyun felt pain in his heart, but he just quietly covered it up: "I am not greedy, I feel very good to be with the Lord and the Empress Dowager now."

Seeing her like this, the queen mother stopped talking.

The two walked slowly along the palace wall, and after a while, Fen Dai ran over.

"Queen Mother, aunt." She was holding a small box in her hand, with an urgent look. "Words came from over there that Mr. Yang Yiqing was sent to Ningxia."

When Pei Wende got the news, he was checking those workshops with Chen Qing outside the city.He immediately got on his horse and returned to the city, but outside a street of the Yang Mansion, he saw the Dongchang eunuchs surrounding the gate of the mansion.

The leader, Chen San, stood beside the two or three dilapidated carriages, holding a saber with a gloomy expression on his face.Yang Yiqing was not in the mansion, but Mrs. Yang and her children were standing outside the mansion alone with a small package on their backs.The eunuchs yelled and kicked the servant girl, and for a moment Mrs. Yang was so anxious that she wanted to cry: "Master, don't beat me any more."

Chen San turned a blind eye: "Seal the mansion!"

The two gates of Yang's mansion were slowly closed, and the eunuch of Dongchang stepped forward and pasted two seals in black and white.

"My lord, my master is only sent to Ningxia, why did you seal up my mansion?"

Chen San bowed to the sky from a distance: "The imperial decree says so, so our family has to do so. Mr. Yang is an important minister of the country, and he must be lonely to go to Ningxia alone, so it is Mr. Gu Yang who invites the old lady and all brothers and sisters to go together. Enjoy family bliss."

Chen San patted the broken carriage: "Master Yang has set off, old lady, hurry up, you can still go to the inn tonight."

Pei Wende couldn't stand it anymore and stepped forward: "Eunuch Chen, at least let them bring some clothes and money before leaving. What is the reason for you to drive the teacher out like this."

Seeing that it was Pei Wende, Mrs. Yang burst into tears: "Wende, what should we do?"

Chen San saw Pei Wende, but there was a smile on his face: "Hey, Mr. Pei, what a coincidence. Our family is doing things according to the will, and this time waits for no one."

Pei Wende took a step forward: "Eunuch Chen, even if you don't wait for others, you can't humiliate the family members of important ministers. Please be more accommodating and let the old lady pack up her things before leaving Beijing."

Chen San smiled even more: "Master Pei, are you trying to resist the edict?"

"Pei does not resist the emperor's order."

Chen Sanyi's face changed slightly when he heard this: "Pei Wende, what do you mean by that?"

"Eunuch Chen understands what Pei means."

Chen San raised his hand slightly, and the eunuchs of Dongchang drew their swords one after another.When Mrs. Yang saw this posture, she became anxious: "Forget it, Wende, let's go, this has nothing to do with you."

"Why don't you have anything to do with him?" Chen San took off his waistband and pointed straight at Pei Wende: "Come here, Pei Wende disobeyed the order and disrespected the emperor, arrest him immediately."

"Yes!"

"Pei has really seen how Dongchang handles cases." Tianguang fell the blade, the Xiuchun knife was unsheathed, Pei Wende's face was deep, and he waved Chen San with five arrows in succession.

"Master, stay away!" He looked back at Mrs. Yang.As he said that, he flashed the long knife, forcing the surrounding eunuchs of Dongchang to take a step away.

"Wen De, don't beat me!" Mrs. Yang turned her head and pulled a servant: "Go to Jin Yiwei quickly, and find Master Shen Qing! Go!"

Pei Wende raised his hand to block the incoming long knife, jumped up and kicked several people away.Under this flanking attack, it was more than enough to cope.Chen San's face became more and more gloomy, and his fingertips shimmered.

Pei Wende's shoulder was sore, and when he looked again, the flying knife had scratched his shoulder, and his clothes were stained with blood.He lost strength in his arm and was knocked down with a club.

"Take it away." Chen San clapped his hands, and glanced at everyone in the Yang residence with a sneer.

Shen Qing was also blocked on the way back to the city.They are all black-clothed assassins, and their kung fu is not weak.But hitting back and forth didn't hurt him.With this delay, by the time he arrived at the gate of the Yang residence, Pei Wende had already been taken away.

"Where's my lord?" Shen Qing grabbed the arm of the vendor beside him and asked anxiously.

The vendor carefully recognized him: "Young Master Shen! You are late! Those eunuchs have taken Mr. Pei away. Mr. Pei was also injured!"

Shen Qing's mind crashed.Turning on the horse, looking at the empty street but not knowing where to go.His mind was blocked, and he thought for a while: "Yes! Go to the emperor! Go to the emperor!"

He rushed into the Leopard Room, flying over the eaves and walls, but he didn't find Zhu Houzhao.

"This sister! Where is the emperor?" He caught a court lady in a hurry.The palace maid was startled, and tremblingly said for a long time: "The emperor took Mr. Jiang out."

"Go out? Where did you go?"

"Going out of the palace, slave... I don't know about this slave."

Shen Qing held on to the palace wall and almost lost his breath.This time out of the palace, how can I find it in such a big capital.

He was so anxious that he stomped his feet non-stop, the maid ran away in a hurry, Shen Qing looked at her back and was suddenly blessed.

"Yes, there is also Xiao Shanggong!"

Fendai was adding incense to the incense burner, but suddenly heard a sound behind him, and when he turned his head, he saw a young man in a flying fish suit jumping over the wall and jumping into the yard, his hair was messed up on his forehead, panting.

"Where is Xiao Shanggong!"

"Who are you?!" Fendai exclaimed in shock.

When Xiao Huanyun heard the movement and came out of the Shang Palace Bureau, Shen Qing stepped forward and knelt down: "Master Shang Gong, my lord was arrested by Chen San! The emperor has left the palace, and I can't find him."

"Chen San arrested Pei Wende?" Xiao Huanyun was startled.

They have secretly investigated Liu Jin for a long time, and all the important evidence is in Pei Wende's hands. If Liu Jin knows something...whether it is a secret execution or an early rebellion, the outcome is unknown and extremely pessimistic.

His arrest must be related to Yang Yiqing's release.

"Lord Shang Gong!" Shen Qing's face turned pale in a hurry.

Xiao Huanyun went back to the house to get the token, turned around and strode out the door, and ordered while walking: "Shen Qing, go and transfer your other brothers to wait for me at the palace gate, and Fen Dai will go to the cabinet immediately, and carefully investigate the decree of the transfer to Master Yang Yiqing. Let the adults decide."

"Yes!"

The horseshoes on the long street were startled, and a woman was seen riding the horse in front, rushing through the turbulent market.West Street has not yet been restored, and the door of Yiqing Building is closed, so it must not be there.The Yang Mansion is in the east of the city, if it is a trick to hide it, it should not be in the east of the city.

This Jiang Bin...is indeed Liu Jin's running dog.Xiao Huanyun clenched his teeth and whipped his horsewhip again.

In Huajie and Liuxiang, she is already familiar with the way as a woman.But Zhu Houzhao was not there, no matter how hard he looked for him.The more anxious Xiao Huanyun became, the more he lost his mind.

"Master, where are you! Do you want Pei Wende's life?!"

At this time, in a restaurant in the east of the city, Jiang Bin and Liu Jin were serving dishes on the left and the right.

"Master, although this restaurant is not very luxurious, the dishes are delicious." Liu Jin put a bowl of fish soup in front of Zhu Houzhao: "This fish is fresh, sir, please try it."

Zhu Houzhao was not very interested, he always felt dazed and uneasy, and he didn't know what to eat: "Liu Jin, there is no need to go anymore. This is enough."

"Yes." Liu Jin promised, winked at Jiang Bin, and retreated.

Jiang Bin just turned his head and said with a smile: "My father is thrifty. My son and the border guards don't get to eat big fish and meat all year round, but they eat a lot of sand."

Zhu Houzhao pushed the fish soup in front of him: "Then I will reward Bin'er with this bowl of soup."

Jiang Bin knelt down to thank him: "Father loves you so much, sons and ministers are grateful, and I am grateful for the replacement of border guards."

I saw the restaurant owner carrying a bowl of porridge upstairs.Zhu Houzhao glanced at it impatiently and said, "Didn't you say you don't need to use it?"

"You don't know, this is our shop's signature, An Le Porridge." The owner of the restaurant said with a smile, "Your money is generous, and this porridge is a gift from our shop, as a token of kindness."

Zhu Houzhao had no choice but to take it, tasted it, the aftertaste was sweet, it was really delicious.

The boss was very proud: "This porridge is the name given by Mr. Yang. He would come here every morning to buy a bowl of it to drink, so that he can live a long and healthy life, with the meaning of peace and prosperity." But the boss then sighed: "It's a pity Master Yang was sent to Ningxia, and the whole family left."

Jiang Bin's face changed slightly.

Zhu Houzhao put down the bowl: "Master Yang? Which Master Yang?"

"Yang Yiqing, Master Yang!" The boss said in a low voice: "My lord, I don't know, the city was full of storms this morning, the Yang family sealed off the mansion, and that Jin Yiwei, Master Pei, was taken away by Dongchang for some reason..."

What the boss said afterwards, Zhu Houzhao didn't hear a word, he only heard that Pei Wende was arrested by Dongchang.He immediately slapped the table and got up, with anger in his eyes.My heart was empty, I just felt like I fell into a cliff, hanging with no bottom.

Jiang Bin's face turned pale with shock, he kept the truth from the sky, how could he let the restaurant owner tell the truth.

Liu Jin heard this as soon as she went upstairs, and almost rolled down the stairs with a sprained ankle.

Zhu Houzhao's sharp eyes fell on Liu Jin, and he rolled and crawled: "Master, this servant doesn't know about Mr. Pei!"

"Go to prison!"

The fast horse on the long street, Zhu Houzhao's heart aroused a fire, which made him even more irritable.At the intersection of the street, I saw another group of people coming on horseback. When I looked closely, it was Xiao Huanyun.

"Where did you go! Pei Wende, he..." Xiao Huanyun's heart relaxed, his eyes were darkened, and he was staggering and about to fall off the horse.Zhu Houzhao stepped forward to give her a hand, and said to Shen Qing, "Send her back to the palace."

After speaking, he rode his horse to the prison.

The Imperial Prison of the Ming Dynasty was the imperial edict issued by the emperor to convict and imprison important ministers and officials.

Pei Wende's shoulder was in great pain, he just gritted his teeth, his forehead was drenched in cold sweat, and he didn't say a word.

Chen San directly ordered someone to take him to the execution room, took off his official uniform, removed the embroidered spring knife, and tied him to a wooden post.

There is no light in the prison, but there is a bright color in front of him.Chen San stepped forward to touch the jade: "Master Pei, there is such a good thing?"

Pei Wende's eyes were cold, and he only said in a deep voice, "Put it down."

But Chen San tugged hard: "Put it down? The things in the prison are my Chen San's things." He shook the jade and put it in his arms very satisfied.Pei Wende wanted to grab it hard, but was tied to the post and couldn't move.

Chen San smiled and watched him grit his teeth, Shi Shiran sat on the opposite table, nodded to the two guards, and said lightly, "Let's hit."

"Chen San, Mr. Pei is not guilty. You are using lynching. What do you think of me, Da Ming Law?"

"Da Ming Law?" Chen San shook his head: "What is that? In the prison, I, Chen San, am Law! Hit!"

"Swish!" The long whip swung over, curled around his neck, and drew out a blood stain.

Chen San clapped his hands over there and laughed: "Good fight, good fight! Make it louder!"

Another whip fell, Pei Wende bit his lip and bled.He kept silent all the time, just looked up at Chen San: "Chen San, someone told me to leave a way out for myself."

"The back road, our family has it." Chen San twirled his fingers in the air: "If the event is successful, you will all die, hahahahahaha!"

Pei Wende's heart trembled.Big event... How far has Liu Jin planned it?

Chen San saw that he was silent all the time, but his face was pale, and the blood oozing from his lips looked extremely coquettish.He suddenly raised his hand to stop the two jailers, and after making them retreat, he stood in front of Pei Wende.

Pei Wende raised his eyes and looked at him fiercely.Chen San only grabbed his neck to force him to look up.

"Lord Pei," he said softly, "it's no wonder the emperor never forgets you. This weak appearance is indeed very pitiful."

Pei Wende turned his head: "Get lost!"

"Tsk tsk tsk, Mr. Pei has a really bad temper." Chen San looked at him closely with interest: "It is a blessing from heaven for parents to give you a good skin."

Pei Wende turned his head away in disgust, but didn't answer, but this angered Chen San, and he grabbed his hand: "Don't think that you have more things than us, because your eyes are so bright. In this prison, I belong to Chen San. , Lord Yan has to listen to me."

There was twisted jealousy and malice in his eyes.Turning around, he took the whip again, and whipped it at his waist.The blood stains spread all over the fabric in an instant.

Pei Wende lowered his head and smiled: "What's so scary about Lord Yan? What's scary is you people."

Chen San was extremely angry and pulled out a dagger.

In an instant, hot hands grabbed his wrist tightly, and when he pulled it back, there was a "crack" sound, and the dagger fell to the ground with a clatter.Half of his arm was severed.

Chen San yelled and passed out.

Pei Wende slowly opened his eyes, the sweat dripped into his eyes and it hurt.He couldn't see the man's face clearly, but he just felt heartbroken.The hands behind him were released, and he was hugged tightly by this person.

"Pei Qing... Wende..."

"Chen...it's okay..."

Liu Jin trotted over and saw the emperor and Pei Wende hugging each other, her heart was half cold.

But the next second the emperor turned around, his eyes were red and he was lifeless.It was as cold as a ghost possessed by a resentful ghost.

Liu Jin fell to his knees.

Zhu Houzhao took the man by his side, and said coldly, "Liu Jin, when did the imperial prison belong to Chen San?"

"Grand... Grandpa... I don't know what this bastard has eaten so hard to say such outrageous things..."

"My people, are you also the ones who you can arrest if you want, beat you if you want, and humiliate you if you want?!" Zhu Houzhao only asked one after another like thunder falling from the sky. , This bastard is going to die, master, calm down, and this slave will punish him!"

Pei Wende let out a long breath.

"emperor……"

Zhu Houzhao hurriedly turned around, the hostility in his eyes dissipated at that moment, and he just looked at him nervously.

"Chen San stole something from the minister, can you ask him to return it?"

Then Liu Jin hurriedly climbed forward, opened Chen San's clothes, and held up the jade carefully: "Master Pei, it's this bastard who is so bold, your lord has a lot..."

Before finishing these words, Zhu Houzhao grabbed the jade with one hand, supported Pei Wende and walked out.

Liu Jin wiped away tears, only to hear Zhu Houzhao's deep voice, like an epee hanging from the top.

"Liu Jin, if your subordinates are all such bastards, you don't have to stay in the Prison of Rituals anymore."

He pulled out the blade of the imperial guard with his backhand, the murderous aura in his eyes rolled, he raised his hand and threw the knife past Liu Jin's ear, and it went straight into Chen San's heart.The guy only moved, but was silent again.

Holding Pei Wende in his arms, Zhu Houzhao boarded the car and hurried to the Leopard Room.The blood on his body soaked the dragon robe.Zhu Houzhao didn't dare to let go, and just called his name softly along the way.

"Pei Qing... Wende... don't sleep..."

Pei Wende smelled the faint fragrance of peach blossoms, and slowly reached out and grabbed his sleeve.

"Your Majesty, this subject is just traumatized..."

Zhu Houzhao gritted his teeth, suppressed the murderous look in his eyes, and lowered his head to his forehead: "I know, I know. But Pei Qing, I'm really scared..."

He held his hand tightly, fingers interlocking.

Pushing open the door, the rustling sound of the wind blowing paulownia leaves got into the car.It was very quiet all around, and the distant sound of silk and bamboo could be heard faintly, as if it was outside the sky.

Zhu Houzhao hugged him firmly, turning sideways to block the sun for him.Pei Wende only looked at it as a small courtyard, without the gold and jade carvings like the Leopard Room, but with gray tiles and wooden walls, with plain white window screens hanging down.A row of sycamore trees outside the house is verdant and verdant.

Zhu Houzhao pushed open the door, and there was only one living room and one room in the house, with light wooden tables, chairs and cages.The bed in the back room was covered with a silk quilt, and Zhu Houzhao gently placed the person on the bed.

"Your Majesty, the imperial physician has arrived."

Zhu Houzhao just sat on the side and accompanied him. The imperial doctor came in to take a look at the pulse, and then went out to adjust the ointment.

"Your Majesty, although Master Pei's skin injury is a bit serious, there is no danger to his life. I apply this ointment twice a day for a maximum of ten days. Just pay attention to diet, avoid greasy food and spicy food."

The imperial doctor was also a genius, after prescribing the prescription, he put the prepared ointment in the room and withdrew.The maid went out to grab the medicine and closed the door.

Pei Wende's forehead was covered with cold sweat.

Zhu Houzhao's heart was in great pain, his fingers trembled slightly and he pulled away his belt.

"Pei Qing, bear with it, it hurts."

The wound was stuck together with his clothes, Pei Wende trembled in pain, he just grabbed Zhu Houzhao's clothes: "Your Majesty, you'd better hurry up, otherwise it will hurt even more."

It took a lot of effort to peel off the bloody clothes, and the bed was stained with blood on the front and back.Pei Wende leaned against him with his head tilted, and the afterglow of the setting sun outside the window fell on the scar.

Zhu Houzhao gently took the ointment, and took him with one hand to apply the ointment gently.

The sparrows were chirping outside the window, and there was silence all around, only the sound of Pei Wende's painful and tight breathing.

"I... I'm sorry for you." He muttered for a while.

Pei Wende quietly clenched the hem of his robe, and just sighed: "But the emperor still came to rescue the minister. In fact, the minister acted recklessly and recklessly."

Zhu Houzhao applied medicine to him, and the gauze wrapped him all over, but there were still light blood stains oozing out.His heart was full of self-blame, he just hugged him and didn't let go, but he didn't know what to say.

"Your Majesty, can you please put on your clothes first?" Pei Wende spoke softly to break the silence, Zhu Houzhao scratched his head in embarrassment: "I am stupid."

He opened a chest on one side and took out a new set of clothes, Poirot's texture was soft and soft.It was rare for Pei Wende to stop refusing and let him help with dressing.Under the overlapping neckline, the wound on the neck revealed a faint reddish color.Zhu Houzhao bowed his head and tied his coat belt.As soon as he looked up, he saw a soft smile in his eyes.

He stretched out his hand to lightly touch the scar on his neck, Pei Wende subconsciously retreated, but was dragged into his arms by him.

The emperor turned his head and kissed his wound softly.His breath lingered around his neck and ears, and Pei Wende lost his breath for a moment.

He reached out tentatively.

Finally, he wrapped Zhu Houzhao in his arms.

"Your Majesty..." His voice was low and hoarse, but soft as a spring breeze.

"Can you...can you hear my heartbeat?"

Zhu Houzhao didn't know why his eyes were sore, he closed his eyes, and his eyelashes were slightly wet.

"Dong dong."

"Dong dong."

"Dong dong."

"Wende..." Zhu Houzhao still closed his eyes: "You hugged me, didn't you?"

"Yes."

"Am I dreaming?"

"The injury on my body is very painful, it's not a dream."

Pei Wende's voice was low and slow, like a spring in a deep mountain, slowly pouring into Zhu Houzhao's heart.

A long-buried seed quietly germinated and bloomed.

Zhu Houzhao opened his eyes, looked at him and smiled, "I... am very happy. But I forgot that you are still hurt."

As he spoke, he gently let go of Pei Wende, called someone to change the mattress, and asked for porridge and side dishes by name, urging the small kitchen to do it.

Pei Wende only leaned on the side of the bed and tilted his head to look at him.

A king is not a king, and a minister is not a minister.But listening to the wind of the phoenix tree under the setting sun makes people feel peaceful and joyful.

"Wen De." Zhu Houzhao sat beside his bed and took out the jade from his arms: "This is your thing."

Pei Wende's eyes darkened slightly, but he still reached out to take it.

"Your Majesty, do you know what this is?"

Zhu Houzhao looked at him quietly and motioned for him to continue.

"This is an agreement. When I was young, a monk in white wanted to help me become a monk, but I was the only son in the Pei family, so the monk gave me the jade, saying that the person holding the other half of the jade pendant is the one I will spend my whole life with." .”

Pei Wende put down the jade pendant, and reached out to hold Zhu Houzhao's hand.

"I don't want to let others down...I have to wait for her."

Zhu Houzhao still looked at him intently.

"But today, when I was about to die, I only thought of the emperor." There was a layer of tears in his eyes: "If I die, the emperor will be alone, and I won't let it go."

"Wende..."

"I have someone in my heart." Pei Wende turned his head to look at that jade, and said: "But this agreement has been made, this heart is like jade, I have to wait."

"it is good."

Zhu Houzhao gently wiped away the wetness from the corners of his eyes, and said softly, "I said..."

"I can wait."

Pei Wende finally heard this sentence for real.No longer dodge, no longer ethereal.

"If you wait for her forever, I will wait for you forever." Zhu Houzhao solemnly swore: "In this way, does it count as being together forever?"

"When you and I are old, gray-haired, and have to support each other to move, if an old woman comes to find someone with that jade pendant, she won't be able to snatch you away from me."

With a smile on the corner of his mouth, Pei Wende stretched out his hand to pull the emperor, and the two of them fell onto the bed.

"Don't make trouble!" Zhu Houzhao was so nervous that he almost touched his injury again by supporting the mattress.But there seemed to be afterglow in that person's eyes, shining brightly.

"The emperor's fallacies, why do you feel so comfortable listening to them?"

Zhu Houzhao leaned sideways beside him, only looked at the white jade luan from left to right, and said for a while, "Why do I think this thing looks so familiar?"

Pei Wende turned his head to look at him in surprise, there seemed to be ethereal lights and shadows flickering on the jade.

"Qian Ning has bought a lot of jade things. Maybe... I have seen them."

Zhu Houzhao just thought so, and couldn't wait any longer. He jumped out of bed and went to the desk to sketch the shape.

"Decree to the Shangyi Bureau to find out if there is such a jade pendant in the palace."

"Yes."

He turned around and held Pei Wende's hand.

"Wende, maybe... maybe I'm the one you're waiting for?"
