The team is full of strong and sturdy men. Although the Mid-Autumn Festival has passed and the weather is cold, they are still wearing thin summer clothes, and the strong muscle lines of their arms are revealed when they move.
However, among this group of people, there was a man who was dressed too thickly. He was also tall, but very thin. Even though he was wearing several layers of clothes and a white robe on the outside, he was not as strong as those strong men.
His face was very pale and he looked sick. He would lower his head and clench his fists and cough from time to time.
But when people saw him for the first time, what they noticed was not these, but his extremely handsome appearance.
Xue Huan glanced over inadvertently and was shocked. Pei Ji!
To be precise, it was the Southern Tang after Pei Ji disguised himself.
How did he get here? And with the Ji family?
Pei Ji looked at her expression and knew that she recognized him. A smile flashed in his eyes, but there were so many people here that it was not appropriate for them to recognize each other, so he just nodded at her slightly and walked past her.
Xue Huan also pretended to be indifferent and continued to choose from the stalls with her head down.
That night.
Xue Huan was looking at a map in the room. She was holding one map in her hand, and there were two other maps spread out on the table in front of her. They all depicted the situation in the Qiantan Secret Realm, but they were not exactly the same.
It’s not that the stall owner openly sells fake maps to deceive consumers, but the special nature of the secret realm makes the map different.
The first level of the secret realm is composed of thousands of pools of water of different sizes. Some of these pools are the entrances to the second level of the secret realm. However, even if it is the same pool of water, when entering at different times, you will fall into different places.
If the lake water is compared to a "door", then the scene inside the door is changing every time.
This also means that even if the predecessors successfully came out and drew maps of the places they had visited, they would not be able to provide accurate reference for future generations.
Therefore, Xue Huan could only buy a few more copies to see if she could find any pattern.
“Knock, knock, knock.”
There were three rhythmic knocks on the window frame.
Xue Huan's heart moved, and she immediately put down the map and opened the window.
Isn’t the person standing outside Pei Ji?
They had been communicating with each other before, so she didn't miss him that much, but when they met now, she wanted to throw herself into his arms immediately.
As soon as Pei Ji came in, Xue Huan pounced on him, hanging herself on him, burying her head in his neck and deeply inhaling his scent.
Pei Ji held her with one hand to prevent her from falling, and closed the window with the other hand.
Xue Huan had hugged him enough, so she removed the illusion on herself and touched his face again, trying to take off the mask on his face.
After searching for a long time but failing to find anything, she simply gave up and hugged his neck and kissed him.
Pei Ji was amused by her eagerness and chuckled. His chest vibrated slightly and he responded to her with a more passionate attitude.
This long-awaited kiss ignited both of them.
In her confusion, she took off her clothes layer by layer. When Xue Huan came to her senses, she found that her skin was exposed to the cold air of the autumn night.
However, Pei Ji's body was so hot that she shivered and became weak, and her toes curled up.
At a certain moment, Pei Ji suddenly pulled the quilt from the inside of the bed, wrapped her in it, and hugged her tightly, making it difficult for her to breathe.
Xue Huan struggled to free her head from the quilt and breathed in the fresh air outside.
Pei Ji hugged her tighter and said in a low voice, "Hanhuan, don't move."
Xue Huan was originally a little angry. They were all like this, but he could still endure it. She was not refusing to give it to him, so why should he suddenly stop in the middle of the journey?
She was very willing to have a happy and in-depth communication with him.
In the end, he would rather endure his own discomfort than touch her.
Serves you right!
Xue Huan cursed, but she couldn't help but feel sorry for him. She quietly reached out her hand from under the quilt and held his hand.
Pei Ji groaned, his whole body feeling as if an electric shock had occurred.
"Let me help you, okay?" she invited like a fairy.
How could Pei Ji refuse? He lifted the quilt and crawled in, burying his head in her neck, pressing his lips heavily against her skin, silently urging her on.
…
Although they didn't actually do it, after finishing it, both of them were sweating as if they had just been fished out of the water.
Xue Huan lay on Pei Ji, so tired that she couldn't even lift a finger.
Beneath her, Pei Ji's chest was heaving violently, his hot, rapid breaths hitting her ears.
Xue Huan licked her lips, feeling a little thirsty. Just then, a drop of sweat gathered at Pei Ji's chin, and was about to roll into his neck. She moved forward as if possessed by a ghost, and licked the drop of sweat into her mouth.
After this lick, Pei Ji's whole body tensed up, and he turned over and pressed her down.
I don't know how long they fooled around, but when they came out of the bathroom after taking a shower and changing into clean clothes, they heard the loud and clear crowing of roosters outside.
It’s probably already four o’clock in the morning (1-3 am).
Looking at the messy bed, Xue Huan couldn't bear to look at it. She blushed and her heart beat fast just thinking about it.
She walked over and lowered the bed curtain to cover up the ambiguous traces.
She coughed lightly and asked Pei Ji: "Are you hungry? Do you want to have a midnight snack?"
Pei Ji nodded, "Eat."
While speaking, his eyes could not help but fall on her moist red lips.
Xue Huan felt a tingling sensation on her lips when he looked at her. She resisted the urge to lick them and took out some food from the space and placed them on the table.
The two of them sat together and had a sweet and sticky midnight snack. After eating, they moved to the soft couch by the window and snuggled up to each other and talked.
Xue Huan sat in his arms, and Pei Ji covered her with a blanket, wrapping her tightly against his chest.
"Why are you here? And are you here with the Ji family? Where's Yibao? Does he miss me?"
Pei Ji answered her questions one by one: "I missed you, so I quickly finished the affairs in the capital. As Nan Tang, you are still a guest official of the Ji family. When I knew you were coming here, I came here with the Ji family. I was worried about leaving Yibao in the capital, so I brought him out with me and temporarily placed him in Xianyang City at the foot of the mountain. Ah Man and Wu Qi are looking after him."
Although the two of them often corresponded, it was impossible to explain everything clearly in letters. Now that they were face to face, they had endless things to talk about.
It was only then that Xue Huan realized that a lot had happened in the capital during the two months she had been away.
For example, Pei Yu took advantage of the natural disaster to stir up trouble, put all the blame on Pei Ji, and secretly spread rumors against him;
But soon after, a concubine from Pei Yu's house escaped and went to Jingzhao Yin to beat the drum to accuse Pei Yu of practicing witchcraft, cursing the emperor, and intending to seize the throne.
Afterwards, the emperor passed away, leaving behind a will, appointing the ninth prince, who was only twelve years old and alone, as the next emperor.
After investigation, Pei Yu was found guilty and was beheaded in public on the day the new emperor ascended the throne.
This was the first member of the royal family to be killed.
The former crown prince Pei Ji was appointed regent by the new emperor and was in charge of the government.
