Chapter 46 A Kiss
The sky is bright.
Pei Tingyue slowly opened her eyes.
This was not the tent she was familiar with, and this was not her home.
Where is this?
Pei Tingyue was confused.
She tilted her head and saw a bright yellow figure dozing with its head propped up beside the bed.
"emperor…"
Xie Chen opened his eyes when he heard the voice.
"Tingyue is awake, are you feeling unwell?"
"No, I'm not feeling unwell." Pei Tingyue shook her head. Suddenly, as if remembering something, her face was filled with anxiety. "Your Majesty, how is your injury?"
"Don't worry, it's bandaged."
With Xie Chen's support, Pei Tingyue half-sat up with his back against a soft pillow and asked his question, "Where is this?"
She thought it was a palace style, but she had never seen such a palace before.
Xie Chenzhu poured her a cup of warm water and fed it to her personally. "Chengming Palace's side hall, you will stay here to recuperate for the time being."
Pei Tingyue's mind moved.
She is here.
It seems that fighting hard is indeed a smooth road ahead.
Pei Tingyue didn't show what she was thinking on her face. Instead, she said in panic, "My concubine... my concubine, why am I recuperating here? This is against the rules..."
As she spoke, she struggled to get up.
Xie Chen held her down, stared at her seriously, and said, "If I say it's in accordance with the rules, then it's in accordance with the rules."
Pei Tingyue was surprised at first, then nodded shyly.
Her tone was sweet: "I obey the emperor."
Xie Chen was finally satisfied. He glanced at the sky outside and said, "I'm going to court now."
Hearing this, Pei Tingyue looked at him reluctantly.
Xie Chen said in a gentle tone, "As for the Queen, I've already asked someone to ask for leave for you. Let's talk about it after you recover."
"Now that you're awake, be good and wait for me to leave the court. I'll have dinner with you later."
Pei Tingyue nodded obediently.
"I understand."
Xie Chen touched her cheek and praised: "Very obedient."
Pei Tingyue didn't hide, but moved closer to him. Her face turned red and hot when he touched her. She whispered, "I've always been obedient."
Xie Chen was softened by her, and he looked at her straight in the eye: "Do you want a reward?"
He's so well behaved, it would be unreasonable not to give him some reward.
Pei Tingyue's thick eyelashes trembled. She blinked and asked expectantly, "What reward?"
This person had praised her before, but he didn't seem to mention any rewards.
Xie Chen sat beside the bed, held her head, and slowly moved closer.
Pei Tingyue's breathing stagnated as she watched the handsome face getting closer and closer and a gentle kiss fell on her forehead.
His lips were soft and warm.
This action surprised Pei Tingyue.
In the past, he never kissed anyone on the bed, at most he would tease her nastily. At first, she didn't know and tried to seduce her into a kiss, but he dodged her. After many times, she understood.
Unexpectedly, today, he actually took the initiative to kiss her.
This kiss ended as soon as it touched.
Xie Chen looked at the stunned woman and said softly, "Reward."
Is this a like or dislike reaction?
The next moment, he knew.
The woman pulled his sleeve and asked haltingly, "Always obedient... Next... Next time..."
Xie Chen laughed: "Just listen to Yue and you will get it."
Pei Tingyue nodded heavily.
At Liang Yao's repeated urging, Xie Chen went to court.
Pei Tingyue stared at his departing back, a glimmer of excitement in her eyes, like a hunter who finally caught the long-awaited prey.
A few days ago, she was still worried about how to win the emperor's heart, but now this worry no longer exists.
From the unconventional arrangement and the kiss on the forehead, she glimpsed a glimpse of the emperor's sincerity.
It’s not easy!
It’s really not easy!
This is the result of her risking her life.
The risk is great, but the reward is also great.
The experience of protecting each other with your life and living and dying together is incomparable to any other plan.
Pei Tingyue smiled silently.
Next, she will hold on to this sincerity and gradually increase her weight in the emperor's heart.
Sitting on the bed unable to move, Pei Tingyue asked someone to find a chess manual.
Ever since Concubine Song taught her last time, she has been very interested and plans to learn it.
She was lost in thought as she watched, and only came back to her senses when the chessboard was snatched away from her hand.
Before I knew it, I saw the emperor returning from court.
Xie Chen glanced at the book and asked, "Want to learn how to play chess?"
Pei Tingyue said hesitantly, "I want to learn, but I'm stupid and can't quite understand it."
Xie Chen was not surprised: "To learn chess, you need to find a good teacher."
Pei Tingyue somewhat understood what he meant, but she didn't follow up on the conversation and deliberately sang a different tune: "Which sister in the palace is good at chess?"
Xie Chen narrowed his eyes and made a decision: "No reward today."
?
Pei Tingyue was a little confused.
This was somewhat different from what she had expected.
According to her expectations, shouldn't the emperor pinch her face and tell her that the person with the best chess skills in the palace is right in front of her?
How come this is completely different from what I imagined?
And the rewards are not gone yet.
Although she is not very interested in this, this reward can greatly enhance their relationship!
After a moment's hesitation, Pei Tingyue's eyes turned red. Her breathing became rapid, and she asked aggrievedly, "Why? What did I do wrong?"
Xie Chen looked at her and gave the answer: "Because I'm too stupid."
Pei Tingyue retorted: "She is too stupid, not disobedient. Why should she lose the reward? What's more, I don't know what went wrong, and the emperor won't tell me."
The more she spoke, the more aggrieved she felt, and she was on the verge of tears.
