Chapter 236 I Like Him a Little

After the meal, make sure you have brought your pen, ink, paper, and inkstone.

The imperial concubine held Xiao Si's hand and went to Wenhua Palace.

This is where the prince studies.

Now that Xiao Si is gone, the four princes are all going to school.

It’s just that there is a big age difference between them, and the things they have to learn are different.

The eldest prince and the second prince studied together, while the fourth prince studied together with the third prince Yu Shi.

It wasn't just the two princes who were alone, but including their study companions, there were six of them, which was quite a lot of people.

On the way, Pei Tingyue worriedly instructed, "Listen carefully to your teacher and don't make a fuss with Ah Xun or bully others. At lunchtime, if you want to eat anything, just tell us and Eunuch An will prepare it for you, okay?"

The A'xun she was referring to was the Crown Prince of King Xuan.

In the past two years, Princess Xuan would bring him with her when she entered the palace. Because they were of similar age, Xiao Si and he had already known each other for a long time.

Xiao Si nodded solemnly: "I understand."

Pei Tingyue touched his little head and said, "Our Yuzhou is so well behaved."

After receiving the praise, Xiao Si smiled happily.

If it had a tail, it would definitely be pointing up into the sky.

Before reaching Wenhua Palace, the emperor and his concubine saw two carriages waiting there.

As soon as I approached, I heard a chorus of greetings.

Xie Chen waved his hand and said no.

After standing up, King Xuan and his wife and the eldest wife of the Pei family each pushed the child in front of them.

Xie Xun and Pei Yu took a step forward.

When Pei Yu saw Pei Tingyue, he called her "Aunt" politely.

Pei Tingyue smiled and patted his shoulder.

Just as she was about to say something to him, someone pulled her clothes by the collar.

She lowered her eyes and saw that it was Xie Xun who was approaching.

The child is three years old now. He has red lips and white teeth and is very beautiful. At first glance, he looks more like a girl.

Despite his good looks, he had a terrible personality. Over the past two years, King Xuan and his wife had doted on him, nurturing him into a fearless character. By the time they discovered his flaws, it was already too late. So, even after a year, he still hadn't recovered, and he was like a little firecracker.

Pei Tingyue loves and hates him.

Love him for his sweet words, love him for his coquettishness.

Hate...

Can't say she hates him, she just feels bad...

Seven-panel gold-painted sandalwood screen, fine Ru kiln porcelain, enamel and gold-threaded vases,

There was even one time when the antique shelf in her palace was pulled down by this kid...

This is all pure money!

But after this kid did something, he either apologized pitifully or took off his pants and let her beat him. He didn't even have a place to vent his anger.

So every time Xie Xun entered Chengning Palace, she was both happy and frightened.

Pei Tingyue touched his little face and pretended to be surprised, "It's Ah Xun."

When Xie Xun saw her, his eyes sparkled and his voice was quite loud, "Empress Chen looks so beautiful today, Ah Xun wants a hug!"

The princess hurriedly said, "Ah Xun, please don't be rude!"

Xie Xun turned his head and pouted, almost crying, "Ah Xun just wanted a hug."

He was so pitiful, how could Pei Tingyue bear to be dissatisfied, she bent down and picked him up, "Okay, Empress Chen, hug Ah Xun."

Xie Xun was happy. He lowered his head shyly and asked, "After school, can I sleep with Empress Chen?"

King Xuan scolded him, "Xie Xun! Do you want to be beaten?"

Xie Xun was not afraid at all, and even dared to provoke him.

"Didn't Father beat me this morning? Do you want to beat me again now? Then, Ah Xun, take off your pants."

"..." The veins on King Xuan's forehead throbbed, and his cold face suddenly turned red with anger. He gritted his teeth and said, "Xie Xun!"

Seeing this, Xie Xun got down from Pei Tingyue's arms, pushed aside his small brocade clothes, and tried to get away.

Princess Xuan was also very angry, but today was her son's first day of school in public, so it would be wrong to hit him.

After a moment's thought, she quickly stopped King Xuan and said, "Your Majesty, calm down."

Seeing that his father wasn't going to beat him, Xie Xun turned around and asked Pei Tingyue pitifully, "Empress Pei, is this okay?"

Pei Tingyue didn't answer him because Xie Xun was carried over by Xie Chen. Xie Chen said, "Uncle Emperor misses you too. How about letting Uncle Emperor hold you while you sleep?"

Xie Xun is not afraid of anyone except him.

Now when I hear this, I am scared to death.

So, he immediately said, "Then Ah Xun should go back to the palace and sleep."

Xie Chen was satisfied, pinched his cheek, put him down, and said, "Go."

Xie Xun ran up to Xiao Si again and said with a grin, "Your Highness, let's go in."

Xiao Si nodded and took the first step.

Xie Xun followed closely behind Pei Yu.

Behind the three children was a large group of attendants.

They all went to Wenhua Hall.

Pei Tingyue looked at this scene and felt deeply moved.

The child who was still crying and making a fuss in her arms suddenly went to school. The days passed so quickly.

After King Xuan and his wife and the eldest wife of the Pei family left the palace.

The emperor and his empress went to the imperial garden hand in hand.

First, we admired the green pines outside, and then went to the warm room to appreciate the plum blossoms.

Pei Tingyue took a sip of hot tea, looked at the red plum blossoms in the forest and said, "These flowers are blooming so beautifully."

Xie Chen sat with her and watched, "Do you want to pick a branch to take back?"

Pei Tingyue readily agreed: "Okay, then put it in a white glazed vase, it will make the red plum blossoms more gorgeous."

Xie Chen had a smile on his lips and said softly, "I'll go and break it for you."

Pei Tingyue glanced at him and said coquettishly, "If the plum blossoms I pick are not beautiful, I will not be willing to do so."

Xie Chen laughed: "Then I have to be attentive, otherwise I won't be able to sleep on the beauty's bed tonight."

Pei Tingyue nodded seriously: "Well, if it doesn't work, I don't want the emperor anymore. I will sleep with Axun in my arms."

Xie Chen stood up and tapped her nose. "Wait."

He went to the warm room.

Pei Tingyue was standing in front of the window, watching him looking around for beautiful plum branches, a slight smile blooming on the corner of her mouth.

Over the past few years, he has been treating her better and better.

There is no tiredness or disgust, only more love and cherishment.

It wouldn't be a waste of her sincerity.

This man was so good to her. If Pei Tingyue hadn't remained sober, she would have been addicted to him long ago.

Well, actually now, she had to admit that she liked him a little.

But it's just a little bit. The most important thing is her, and then Xiao Si.

Pei Tingyue looked at the tall figure, slowly curled the corners of his lips, and his eyes unconsciously followed him.

It was very warm in the warm room. Pei Tingyue felt sleepy after a while and couldn't help yawning.

Before she fell asleep, Xie Chen finally came back and handed her the plum branch. "Did I pick it well?"

Pei Tingyue took a look at it, then put it under her nose and sniffed it. It had a delicate fragrance, and she praised it generously, "Good."

Xie Chen asked: "So tonight, am I qualified to sleep on this beautiful woman's bed..."

Pei Tingyue's eyes flickered as she looked at him and whispered, "Okay."

Xie Chen leaned over and kissed her through Hongmei.

Pei Tingyue stopped him in time and said softly, "I'm sleepy."

Xie Chen smiled and touched the increasingly captivating little face, "Then go back."

Pei Tingyue said again: "I have no strength left."

Xie Chen tied her cloak, led her out of the warm room, and squatted down, "I'll carry you."
