Chapter 47 Do you want to try?
Xie Chen frowned slightly.
Somehow, he didn't want to see her cry now.
He ordered, "Don't cry."
Pei Tingyue looked up at him. Such a harsh tone made her gather more tears, which trembled and rolled around in her eyes, as if they would fall at the next second.
Her aggrieved and confused look made Xie Chen feel even more uncomfortable. He sat down beside the bed and admitted his mistake for the first time: "It was my fault just now. I shouldn't have called you stupid, nor should I have canceled today's reward."
If Liang Yao was in the hall, his jaw would probably drop to the ground at this moment.
It was unbelievable that the emperor, whom he had served for more than ten years and who had power over all the states, would actually apologize for an ordinary concubine!
Pei Tingyue was also surprised.
She didn't expect that this would be so effective and could actually make the emperor bow his head.
She suppressed the strange feeling in her heart, and her voice was a little flustered: "I know I am stupid and unpopular, but I have done my best in front of the emperor. If I have done anything wrong, please tell me, okay? I will correct it."
After hearing this, Xie Chen felt a heat and swelling in his chest, as if something was about to burst out.
He reached out and touched her head, his eyes gentle: "I know."
Pei Tingyue's mood improved a bit. She asked with confusion, "Then what did I say wrong just now?"
Xie Chen lifted her face, their eyes meeting. "Shouldn't you first ask me if I'm willing to be your teacher? Why ask the concubines?"
Being locked in such a scorching gaze, Pei Tingyue felt a little shy. She looked away and explained, "I was afraid that the Emperor would be too busy with state affairs to teach me, so I asked the sisters in the harem."
"I am very busy." Xie Chen did not deny this. He had to review memorials for nearly five hours a day, which did not leave him with much free time. But if she wanted to study, he would squeeze out time for her.
"If Tingyue wants to learn, I will make time for it even if I'm very busy."
Pei Tingyue asked in surprise, "Is the Emperor really teaching this concubine personally?"
Seeing her so happy, Xie Chen's eyes flashed with a smile. He nodded gently: "My words are as good as gold."
As he spoke, he slowly opened his arms.
Pei Tingyue understood and threw herself into his arms.
The two hugged each other quietly for a while, as if they were living in peace and tranquility.
“Gugugugu…”
A discordant sound broke the beautiful and harmonious picture.
Pei Tingyue lowered her head and looked at her belly.
Before she fell into a coma, she had only eaten one wild fruit a day, which consumed a lot of energy. After she fell into a coma, she guessed that only medicine had gone into her stomach, as other things were difficult to swallow.
So it is normal to feel hungry.
She didn't feel embarrassed at all and said directly, "I'm hungry."
Xie Chen thought her frankness was adorable and chuckled, "I'll carry you to dinner."
He exerted a little force on his hands and carried the person to the main hall.
Looking at the table full of delicious food, Pei Tingyue swallowed unconsciously. She had already decided what she wanted to eat!
Unfortunately, Xie Chen stopped her and only served her a bowl of white porridge.
"Drink this. I asked the imperial kitchen to make it for you."
Pei Tingyue held the bowl of porridge and said a little aggrievedly: "I want to eat meat."
"You can't eat now." Xie Chen explained patiently, "The imperial physician said that you didn't eat well the past two days, and you have a high fever again. You can't eat anything greasy today. Two bowls of rice porridge are best first."
Since the imperial physician was mentioned, Pei Tingyue had no way of refutation.
She stirred the porridge and took a sip resignedly. Unexpectedly, the taste was unexpectedly good, mellow and delicious, leaving a pleasant fragrance on her lips and teeth.
She drank two bowls in a row before stopping.
After breakfast, the two went to the imperial study together.
Pei Tingyue was still ill and didn't need to help grind ink. She was bored and was just looking for something to do when a palace maid announced that the senior maidservant of the imperial concubine was looking for her.
Pei Tingyue thought that something happened to Concubine Song and hurried out of the palace.
"What does the Imperial Concubine want you to see me about?"
Bai Shuang smiled and said, "It's nothing serious. It's just that the Imperial Concubine was worried that the talented person would be bored while recuperating, so she asked me to bring her some storybooks."
Pei Tingyue was surprised: "Storybook?"
Bai Shuang nodded: "The Imperial Concubine had someone bring it from outside the palace."
Pei Tingyue took the thing from her hand and flipped through it, thinking it was very interesting. "Thank the Imperial Concubine for me, and also give her a message for me. I'll go and thank her when I get better."
"yes."
Pei Tingyue took the storybook and returned to Chengming Palace. She stood at the door of the imperial study and was reluctant to go in.
She felt a little guilty. After all, this was a very serious place. If she watched such romantic things in there, it would be a bit... inappropriate.
Or put it back in the side hall?
While Pei Tingyue was hesitating, a gentle voice came from inside, "Tingyue, why don't you come in?"
Pei Tingyue's scalp tingled and he went in with the notebook.
Xie Chen looked up from among the numerous memorials: "What does the Imperial Concubine's people want from you?"
Pei Tingyue was strangely silent for a moment. She also understood that this matter could not be concealed, so she simply made up her mind: "The Imperial Concubine sent someone to send this concubine the original text."
Xie Chen: “…”
He knew that Song Lingyun could not teach anything good.
He felt nothing for the dialogue notebook and thought that even reading history books would be much more useful than this.
Xie Chen planned to find some interesting books for her. Just as he was about to stand up, he accidentally saw the woman holding the storybook tightly, as if it were a rare treasure.
He was silent for a while and didn't stand up again.
Never mind, as long as she likes it, she is recovering from her illness and you can’t push her too hard.
"Well, you need to rest your eyes after watching for a while."
He actually let her see it!
He didn't teach her or scold her with a stern face, he just agreed so simply.
Pei Tingyue was surprised again.
After suppressing her chaotic thoughts, she sat on the couch, holding the storybook and reading it with relish.
Storybooks are about those lingering love affairs.
The writer had great writing skills and she was quickly hooked.
Just as I was reaching the climax, a shadow fell over me.
Pei Tingyue woke up with a start and looked at the person who came: "Your Majesty..."
Xie Chen took the book from her hand and asked, "What did I just say?"
Pei Tingyue said angrily: "Look for a while, rest your eyes."
She planned to take a rest after reading this, but she didn't expect him to come first.
Xie Chen said calmly, picking up the book and reading: "Let me see what has you so fascinated."
Pei Tingyue's body stiffened and his breathing stopped.
She just saw...
No!
She stood up in a panic and tried to snatch the notebook away, but Xie Chen dodged her easily.
Xie Chen looked at the page and read it expressionlessly: "The moment their lips touched, her whole body went limp..."
Pei Tingyue wanted to die after listening to it.
She lowered her head as low as she could and argued softly, "This is the first time it appears in this storybook."
Xie Chen closed the storybook and asked her, "Do you like reading this?"
Before Pei Tingyue could answer, he continued, "Do you want to try it?"
