Peng Ji broke away from that embrace, turned around and moved back into the bed, facing Fa Yi with her back.

"I'm tired, let's take a rest."

Fa Yi felt that his arms were empty, his eyes darkened, he thought about His Highness's tiredness today, and suppressed the disappointment in his heart, he still leaned forward and put his hand on Peng Ji's waist lightly, pulling it so that no one could see smiling face, "Then rest."

Peng Ji didn't speak any more, nor did she push that hand away, but in the darkness, a pair of eyes were open, and they closed slowly until late at night.

Early the next morning, Peng Ji estimated the time of the next court, and went to the palace to face the saint.

Jin Chengdi's body and face looked a little more energetic, but the charm in his eyes was not as good as before.

Originally, the eyes were always full of shrewdness, but now they look really muddy.

Peng Ji took the decoction from Feng Dequan, held it in both hands and brought it to Emperor Jin Cheng.

Seeing his daughter coming over, Emperor Jin Cheng had a rare smile on his face that he hadn't seen in recent days. He took the medicine bowl with a smile, "These doctors are not capable, but they are good at making soup and medicine. I'm already healed." , and brought this soup all day long." As he said so, the soup was swallowed up by him.

Peng Ji took the empty medicine bowl with a smile, "Father, you must listen to the doctor's words carefully, otherwise Yan'er will come and stare at you every day."

Emperor Cheng of Jin got up from behind the table, "Since Yan'er got married, my place has been very deserted."

Peng Ji handed the empty bowl to Feng Dequan, and followed Emperor Jin Cheng to the inner hall, where the chess game was already set up in the middle of the couch.

She suddenly remembered that it was still an unfinished chess game between herself and her father, and she said that she would come back next time to continue playing, but she didn't realize that once she got married, she would never finish this chess game again.

Peng Ji looked at her father, who was getting old after a serious illness, and couldn't express what she felt. She just thought that the father she respected was not her real father, and something in her heart had changed.

Just like the death of her mother and concubine back then, the complaints she had buried in her heart gradually faded away.

Since the happiness of the family of three back then was just an illusion, why should he complain that the father did not avenge his mother and concubine because of this country.

But father, one day he will know that he is not his own daughter. At that time, father will be like how he dealt with the women who had a private affair in the harem, and both mother and child will go.

"Father is free, and it's time to see the empress in the harem." Looking at this unchanging chess game, I can also imagine how long my father has been here.

Even if the ladies came, they would probably be sent back.

Obviously before he got married, he often came to the palace.

This palace is so big, and there are many people, but no one accompanied him intimately, is this person really that good?

Emperor Jin Cheng picked up his sunspots and took a step forward, "I can't be free in this troubled time. But Yan'er, I went to Quanzhou, and the boat and car are tiring, so I need to have a good rest." Staring at the chess game, he continued, "Enough rest. Now, let’s come to court every day from now on.”

As soon as a white piece moved, Peng Ji raised her head slightly startled, looked at Emperor Jin Cheng, then lowered her head to look at the chess game, "Yan'er complies."

Emperor Jin Cheng seemed to like how obedient Peng Ji was, and was very happy all morning, so he kept Peng Ji for lunch.

After the meal, Peng Ji left the palace, and when she returned to the Princess Mansion, she called the four maids and Nanny Lin to the study.

"Your Highness, the son-in-law has gone to the yamen to take over." Mei Hua, who was thinking about the order of the son-in-law, hurriedly passed on the message.

Peng Ji only nodded and didn't say anything about this matter.

"Mei Lan Zhu Ju, and Aunt Lin, you are already the people I trust the most in this world." He said and looked at one of the big maids, "Ju Qiu, if I want to retire, there is a perfect person." Way?"

As soon as these words came out, everyone was shocked. What does this mean?They all understand.

The Juqiu who was being asked had always been a staff adviser in charge of the Princess Mansion, and had secretly communicated with the ministers.

At this time, she didn't dare to say more.

It was Mother Lin who had the courage to ask, "Your Highness, what happened?"

Peng Ji sat behind the table, staring directly at the five people standing in front of the table, she began to think about the past.

"When my mother and concubine passed away, I saw all the faces of these people in the palace, but I was young and ignorant, unable to do anything. Fortunately, my aunt took pity on me and brought me to the northwest to raise me personally. I also sent you four little girls to In front of Ben Gong. Back then, my aunt told Ben Gong that the imperial palace was surrounded by high walls, so I couldn’t escape, and I had to find a way to avoid the cold rain and dark arrows. In order to return to Jingzhou and survive, in order to survive under the thick walls There is no more fear in the palace walls, and the days of wooing courtiers and fighting for power began." Peng Ji said and stood up, "But now, this palace is very tired of such days."

She has already made a decision, no matter what her grandmother and son-in-law are planning, since she is not of real royal blood, she must never ascend to that position and overthrow the Dugu family's dynasty.

"I want to keep my name anonymous, so I don't go back to Jingzhou, and don't implicate those courtiers who support me. Is it possible?"

She looked at the five people in front of her, her complexion was unprecedentedly heavy.

The five people looked at each other in blank dismay, and then said in unison: "Your servant will follow you to the death."

As soon as the voice fell, Ju Qiu thought about it and said: "Your Highness, the exchanges between our Princess Mansion and other mansions were all in the dark that day, and no one knew about it, except that he was His Highness's companion since childhood, even if Mr. Liu Chunxi did not communicate with His Highness. , in the eyes of others, the Liu Mansion is also somewhat related to our Princess Mansion. The servants are most worried about how His Highness can leave quietly?"

"On Chunxi's side, I will think of a way to get it out. As for leaving, I don't have a good idea yet."

Mother Lin's complexion darkened, and then, as if she had made a decision, she said, "Your Highness, there is only one way to be quiet."

Several people all looked over.

The master and servant were discussing here, but Fa Yi had handed over for a long time, and finally simply left a sentence, "I will ask you later if you have any questions" and left Tingwei Mansion.

Fa Yi couldn't wait to go back to the Princess Mansion, but was told that His Highness had important matters to deal with, and he ordered no one to see him.

Uneasy Fa Yi still turned to sister Ruo's yard.

Ruojieer is painting, and recently she started painting on paper.

As soon as Fa came in, he first said hello, and then ordered the maids around him to pour tea, and acted like a little adult.

Fa Yi took a glance, and asked strangely: "Is Nanny Lin here today?" She knew that Sister Ruo had been served by Nanny Lin every step of the way since she was born.

Ruo sister took the handkerchief by herself and soaked it in the plate carried by the maid, and then carefully wiped her ink-stained little hands, and did not forget to reply Fa Yi's words: "Mother called the nanny, maybe there is something to do stop."

Fa subconsciously asked, "Your Highness looking for Nanny Lin?"

The little sister Ruo didn't seem to understand why her father asked again. Could it be that she didn't make it clear?She put down her veil, walked very close to Fa Yi, and then stopped and repeated, "It is indeed mother who called the nanny."

It was only then that Fa Yi realized that he was so inappropriate in front of a child, so he quickly hugged Ruo with a smile, "Why does Ruo like to stay in the house, the big tree in the yard is very shady, why not Go there and play." Her sister Ruo is always like this, and she has a tendency to be strict at a young age.

Saying so, he took the child and went outside to play with Sister Ruo, and Fa Yi left only after Nanny Lin returned to the yard.

She was finally able to see His Highness, so she hurried to the East Hall, and finally saw Peng Ji in the study.

In the huge study room, Peng Ji was the only one sitting upright behind the table, flipping through the books on the table, holding a pen in her hand, and writing something on it from time to time.

She came in happily because she got Peng Ji's permission outside, and she hadn't seen her for a day, and she only had His Highness in her heart.But looking at the other party's serious appearance, people can't bear to bother him.

Fa Yi stood by the table, admiring His Highness's earnestness.

The strokes, the occasional page-turning movements, the look of frowning and contemplating looking at places he didn't understand, were all caught in Fa Yi's eyes.

Sure enough, the look of the beloved when he is serious is really beautiful.

When Zhu Xiang came in to call the master to finish the meal, what he saw was such a scene.

His Highness was reading a book, and the son-in-law looked at His Highness bewilderedly.

They are obviously such a loving couple, but thinking about His Highness's words today, she is a little uncertain.

His Highness said today, don't tell the son-in-law about those things, and wait until His Highness thinks the time has come to make a decision.Thinking of this, Zhu Xiang gave Fa Yi a pitiful look.

His Highness clearly does not believe in the son-in-law.

Then he stepped forward and said softly, "Your Highness, dinner is ready."

As soon as she finished speaking, Fa Yi felt relieved, she had forgotten how long she had been standing, but her legs were already aching.

Unexpectedly, she was reluctant to leave this place with His Highness, so she could only grit her teeth and continue standing.

"Yeah." Peng Ji got up and went to the basin beside her to wash her hands, and then she seemed to have finally noticed that there was another person in the room, "Husband-in-law, hurry up and wash your hands for dinner."

Fa Yi smiled and moved his legs secretly, then cleaned his hands and followed him to the dining room.

In fact, she is a very sensitive person. Although His Highness had a normal expression just now and did not show any signs of anger, she could still feel that His Highness was dissatisfied with her.

Because His Highness didn't smile at himself today!In the past, His Highness saw that although she didn't have an obvious smile, the corners of her mouth would be slightly curved upwards.

On the dining table, Fa Yi is still serving the dishes for Peng Ji, and the other party is also quietly eating.

The worry in Fa Yi's heart also eased, His Highness still willing to let him serve her, it should be because he is not too angry.

She introspected and went through what she did yesterday and what she did today, and if there was anything wrong.

Finally, she remembered what His Highness cared about yesterday, the fact that she was not the daughter of Emperor Jincheng, His Highness cared about this very much.

After confirming the direction, she thought about how to appease His Highness.Maybe I don't think this is a bad thing, but His Highness, who was raised by Emperor Jincheng since he was a child, must still have a father-daughter relationship.

But after dinner, Fayi didn't find a chance to say anything, after dinner, Peng Ji went to the study again, this time she shut herself out.

He said he was dealing with business, so that no one would bother him.

Hearing Peng Ji classify herself as a nuisance, Fa Yi's heart was still full of disappointment.She only felt that she gave Peng Ji all her life's passion.

But thinking about the truth that His Highness has not come out of his life experience, and thinking about it carefully, the truth has indeed brought harm to His Highness, His Highness must not let himself into the study because of his current emotions because he does not want him to see it.

Thinking to herself like this, she sealed up those losses in the corner of her heart, then pulled her face to the place where no one was there, and went to take a bath.

She washed the dust off her body, lay on the bed, found a book that was the same as His Highness read today on the shelf in the room, and read it carefully.

In the middle of the night, a cool breeze blew through the sultry air, blowing away the heat in the air a lot.

In the bedroom, Fa got off the bed, looked at the ice cube basin on the side, saw that it was still emitting cold air, and returned to the bed in peace.

It's time now, His Highness should be back.

But after a while, she really waited for Peng Ji after bathing.

Fa Yi was lying on the other side of the bed, Peng Ji stood by the bed and took a look, seeing that Fa Yi had no intention of leaving, after all, she passed by the end of the bed without saying a word.

As soon as she lay down, Fa Yi hugged her over.

It has been a long time since His Highness showed her gentle and shallow smile to himself, and his heart is still sour.She really wanted His Highness to look at her more, instead of treating herself as a dispensable person.

"Your Highness is very busy today." Fa Yi's words revealed obvious grievances.
