Chapter 149 She Will Scold Me Tomorrow
"I, I..." Jiang Fei hesitated, and suddenly an idea came to her mind. "I scolded you on the street a few days ago. It was very ugly. I even teamed up with others to scold you together."
"That's it?" Pei Jing suddenly chuckled. "I thought it was something else. Do you know you're wrong? I told you to wait for me to come back before you scold me, but you insisted on doing it secretly."
Jiang Fei: “…”
Pei Jing pulled the chair closer and sat down in front of the bed. "I heard from the secret guards that you are full of energy and very fluent in your scolding. You are scolding very well. Now that I am here, you can continue to scold me."
Jiang Fei rolled her eyes. "Are you sick? You're climbing over the wall in the middle of the night and asking for trouble."
"This prince has always been ill, have you forgotten?"
Quite proud of it.
Jiang Fei was speechless, but he was right, he was a lunatic, and scolding him might even be a reward for him.
Why isn't this person Wei Mingzhen?
How great it would be if he was Wei Mingzhen, crazy yet loyal, rich and generous, who believed in and supported her unconditionally, and could even become furious when angry. He was simply the ideal boyfriend.
It's a pity that the person she is going to marry is not him.
Jiang Fei retracted her thoughts, "I called you a bitch, and called you shameless, and also said..."
"Didn't you tell me that I climbed through your window at night?"
Jiang Fei's face suddenly flushed, "Who would say that if they weren't sick?"
Pei Jing laughed in a very dissolute manner, mixed with a bit of pride.
Jiang Fei deliberately yawned, "I'm so sleepy. If you want to hear it, wait until tomorrow."
As he said that, he fell onto the bed, pulled up the quilt and closed his eyes.
"There is one more thing." Pei Jing said, "I have found Jiang Linyuan."
Jiang Fei sat up with a somersault, "Is this true?"
"He is in the palace right now."
"Can I see him?"
“…”
Pei Jing was silent for a moment, then said, "He's been poisoned, has a broken leg, and has lost his memory. It's useless for you to see him."
Jiang Fei supported her chin and thought, amnesia, that would be a difficult problem. Even if Wei Ciying had fallen in love with someone else, she could still plan a plan of forcible seizure and let the hero and heroine get married normally according to the plot.
But Jiang Linyuan has lost his memory. What if he doesn’t want to marry Wei Ciying?
Pei Jing saw her frowning and sighing from time to time, and said coldly, "How dare you spend so long thinking about another man in front of me?"
"Ah?" Jiang Fei came back to her senses, "I was wondering if he was harmed by Wei Ciying."
Pei Jing's anger instantly dissipated. He said, "It's obvious that Wei Ciying tried to get me to abandon this person several times along the way. I'm afraid she wants to kill him completely."
He reached out and tapped her forehead. "Aren't you sleepy? If you're not, I'll talk to you again."
Jiang Fei lay down straight and closed her eyes tightly.
Pei Jing smiled, stood beside her bed for a moment, and said, "There are still many things in the palace. Come and see them yourself someday."
After thinking for a moment, he said, "I might be busy later, so you should be more careful when messing around."
"Why don't you take it easy?" Jiang Fei opened her eyes slightly.
"You must curse me in person. Otherwise, if you curse me publicly, I won't punish you. They will think that anyone can curse me at will."
Pei Jing leaned over and tucked the corner of the quilt for her. "So remember to come to the palace tomorrow and scold me in front of me."
Jiang Fei huddled in bed wrapped in the quilt, "You're stinging me."
"Hmm?" Pei Jing raised his eyebrows.
"You're deliberately trying to trick me into making a mistake!" Jiang Fei glared at him angrily, "I'm not going!"
As the candlelight flickered, Pei Jing chuckled softly, "If you don't come, then I will have to punish you in public so that they won't dare to scold me anymore."
After saying that, he blew out the candle, opened the door and left.
Jiang Fei watched the figure walk out in the dark and gently close the door.
Pei Jing left Jiang's house, and Duan Jiu was still waiting outside.
"Tell the family to prepare some delicious food tomorrow." Pei Jing ordered.
"Yes, Miss Jiang Er will go to the palace tomorrow?"
Pei Jing nodded: "She said she would come and scold me again tomorrow."
Duan Jiu: My silence at this moment is deafening.
…
Wen Zhu rested in the palace for a day before going to Jiang's house.
As soon as he came back, he pulled Jiang Fei aside and excitedly told her about Wei Ciying on the way. He told her everything from how good Wei Ciying was at disguise to how she met Jiang Linyuan.
Jiang Fei figured out the general idea in her mind.
Wei Ciying wanted to kill Jiang Linyuan, but Jiang Linyuan survived by chance. The palace was like an iron wall, and it was extremely difficult for Wei Ciying to kill him. I'm afraid she is now as anxious as an ant on a hot pan.
Jiutao brought the tea and left. When Wenzhu finished speaking and came out, she was still sitting on the steps at the door.
Seeing Jiutao looking unhappy, Wen Zhu stepped forward to comfort her, "What's wrong? Did you not eat enough or did the young lady scold you?"
"I'm full, so I didn't say anything." Jiutao said.
Wen Zhu sat on the railing nearby, "Why do you look like that?"
Jiu Tao glanced back at the door and said worriedly, "The young lady is getting married next month."
"That's right." Wen Zhu nodded.
"But, but..." Jiu Tao gritted her teeth, "What is the prince going to do? Is he going to marry my young lady? If he doesn't, then he breaks into my young lady's bedroom in the middle of the night, and, and..."
Jiutao couldn't continue speaking, but Wenzhu grasped the key point.
Her eyes lit up, "What else?"
Jiutao turned aside and said nothing.
Wen Zhu immediately turned to face her, with a look like a mouse seeing lard, "Did you see something?"
Jiu Tao's eyes dodged, "I can't tell you."
Wen Zhu's curiosity had been piqued to the extreme, so he risked his life, "If you don't tell me, I'll go ask the lady."
Jiu Tao quickly grabbed her, sighed, and said, "I heard noises in the young lady's room last night and thought it was a burglar. But when I went in and took a look..."
"Take a look?" Wen Zhu asked anxiously, "What did you see?"
"I saw the prince and the young lady on the couch."
"What?!" Wen Zhu was extremely shocked and pounded the railing hard. "I didn't see anything, damn it!"
But on second thought, even if she was at Jiang's house last night, she wouldn't have seen it, after all, she didn't have the courage to break in.
It turns out that only the brave ones enjoy gossip first.
"Then what?" Wen Zhu asked again.
"Then I went back to sleep." Jiu Tao said as if it was a matter of course.
Wen Zhu snorted, "Tsk!" It was really true that neither the drought nor the flood would kill them, and they didn't know how to cherish such a good opportunity.
…
The next morning, Pei Jing was summoned to the palace.
Emperor Zhaowen was reviewing memorials when he saw Pei Jing come in. He lowered his head and continued reviewing the memorials. "I heard that you just returned from leaving the capital a few days ago?"
Pei Jing bowed and said, "Your Majesty, I will go find someone."
"Oh?" Emperor Zhaowen put down his red brush and looked up at him. "Who is worthy of your personal visit?"
"My lifesaver back then." Pei Jing's expression was calm. "I thought I'd found that girl, but it turned out to be a false alarm."
Pei Jing clearly saw Emperor Zhaowen breathe a sigh of relief.
"If you can't find it, then forget it. You don't need to worry about it."
Emperor Zhaowen picked up his red brush again and scribbled a few lines on the memorial. He casually said, "I heard that you sent quite a few gifts to the Dingyuan Marquis's residence. Since you are interested in that girl, I will decide on the marriage and the Dingyuan Marquis has no way to refuse."
Pei Jing's lips curled up into a smile. "Even if you're interested in her, you don't necessarily need to marry her. Just like the emperor only watches acrobatics for the novelty, there's no need to maintain an acrobatic troupe in the palace."
He was used to acting recklessly, and Emperor Zhaowen was not surprised by it, so this was not considered out of the ordinary.
"You will marry sooner or later, so just take her home and leave her there."
I thought Pei Jing would refuse on the spot, but he raised his eyebrows and said, "Your Majesty is right. The palace is so big, it won't take up much space for one person."
Pei Jing looked at Emperor Zhaowen with a smile. This suspicious and conceited emperor probably didn't know that Marquis Dingyuan had colluded with Pei Yi.
He wanted to see how interesting the expressions of Marquis Dingyuan and Pei Yi would be if the emperor granted their marriage.
