Chapter 082
The breeze blew gently at night, and Jiashan's hair was blown gently. She looked up and saw the warm and gentle smile on Zhan Yue's face. For a moment, she was intoxicated and didn't want to say anything more.
Jiashan couldn't help but rest his head on his strong shoulders.
Zhan Yue stroked the back of her head gently.
After a while, Jiashan suddenly asked, "Aren't you afraid?"
"What are you afraid of?" Zhan Yue was confused.
Jiashan leaned on his shoulder and murmured, "I may have died once, aren't you afraid that there is something dirty on me?"
Zhan Yue chuckled lightly, gently twirled her chin with two fingers, and looked at Jiashan's face seriously: "As the saying goes, secrets must not be leaked. The princess dared to take the risk and leak the secret to me. I thank you for your pity and it is too late for you, so there is nothing to be afraid of."
"Besides," Zhan Yue raised his eyes slightly, his voice gentle and calm, "Compared to those legends that only gods can be seen but ghosts cannot, I am more afraid that what you said will happen again."
"No." Compared to Zhan Yue's gentle tone, Jia Shan's tone was more resolute. She looked at him and repeated, "It won't happen again."
This time, Yuankang has recovered his sight, and with you by my side, how could we lose?
Jiashan treasured these gentle and affectionate words and her love in her heart.
She greedily sniffed the refreshing and clean scent on Zhan Yue's body and whispered, "I still want to find an opportunity to ask the Feng family for clarification."
“Perhaps, she has had the same experience as I have.”
"Is that what you think?" Jiashan asked Zhan Yue for his opinion.
Zhan Yue replied: "You decide."
Jiashan glanced at him and said jokingly, "Why are you so nervous? I'm not forcing you to go."
After hearing this, Zhan Yue looked down at her and asked, "Princess, are you really willing to let me go?"
"Why not?" A sweet voice came out from Jiashan's throat, and she hummed slightly.
Zhan Yue nodded: "Okay."
Jiashan glanced at him, but couldn't help asking, "What's the matter?"
Zhan Yue pretended to be serious and said, "I will go to Feng Mansion to ask tomorrow."
Hearing that he was joking, Jiashan gently pushed him, raised his eyes and smiled, saying: "Stop it, you are really going."
Zhan Yue's slightly deep voice exploded in Jiashan's ears. He said slowly, "Since you don't want me to go, why bother to say something to anger me?"
His eyes wandered over Jiashan wantonly, and he said, "I think the princess needs to be punished."
Zhan Yue's breath was warm, perhaps touching some unspeakable memories, Jia Shan's fair face instantly became slightly hot. Her long eyelashes trembled, and she looked shy and charming.
Zhan Yue felt that he might have gotten himself into a big trouble.
He touched Jiashan's face reluctantly and whispered in her ear, "You are really my nemesis."
His breath was so hot that it made Jiashan feel numb all over. Suddenly, he couldn't help twisting his body in front of Zhan Yue.
Zhan Yue didn't dare touch her anymore. He let go of her hand and looked away: "I'll put the ointment away."
He said, "You have to get up early tomorrow, don't delay until later."
Jiashan knew that he was afraid of spontaneous combustion, so he nodded and said, "Okay."
Zhan Yue got out of bed, picked up the ointment he had just used to massage his ankle, and said, "Your foot is injured, so you should rest well these few days. When the injury is healed, I will take you to the farm in the suburbs of Beijing as agreed before."
Zhan Yue extinguished the lamp beside the bed, climbed onto the bed, thought for a moment, and couldn't help but hold Jiashan in his arms again, but he didn't dare to do anything unnecessary.
He said lazily, "It's a good place to relax. There's also a pond where you can fish."
Jiashan was somewhat moved by what he said, and couldn't help but lean towards Zhan Yue again, and replied, "Okay."
The two hugged each other.
The night was as cool as water, Zhan Yue's chest was broad and Jiashan couldn't help but be greedy for Zhan Yue's warmth, and she leaned against him again and again.
She lowered her head and said, "On the 28th of next month, my cousin will get married. Will you go with me?"
Although Zhan Yue and Pei Yuantang had some disagreements, he knew that the Pei family meant a lot to Jiashan, and Mrs. Pei treated her like her own daughter, so he naturally said, "Yes, let's go together."
"I don't really want to go to Zhan Shaoying's wedding. I don't want to deal with him and Zhang." Jiashan added, "Is it okay?"
Zhan Yue asked in confusion: "What's wrong?"
"You didn't marry me to let you suffer any injustice." Zhan Yue held her hand and said as a matter of course, "Besides, I was on duty that day, and I was worried about you being alone."
Jiashan nodded and said nonchalantly, "Then I will just give you a gift."
She took the initiative to mention Zhan Shaoying because she was afraid that Zhan Yue would have a grudge. Unexpectedly, he was more generous than she thought.
Jiashan secretly glanced in the direction of Zhan Yue, but was caught by Zhan Yue immediately. He was also looking at her.
Jiashan pursed her lips, but Zhan Yue seemed to know what she was thinking. He stared at her with burning eyes and said, "I know that those are not good memories. So I won't ask, and you don't have to think about it anymore."
Jiashan was stunned for a moment, then finally relaxed and snuggled in his arms, his neck against his.
She closed her eyes and whispered, "You always understand me so well."
"Otherwise, how can I be qualified to be your consort?" Zhan Yue smiled brightly.
He rubbed Jiashan's face with his cheek, still holding her hand tightly, and said softly, "Sleep peacefully."
Jiashan had just arrived and had been busy with the Princess of Qin for the whole day, so she was really sleepy. Hearing this, she smiled sweetly and slowly dozed off in Zhan Yue's arms.
The marriage of Zhan Shaoying and Qi Lehou was officially completed on March 16th.
Zhang had been depressed for several days because of the affairs of the Cheng'en Marquis' Mansion. It was only because of this marriage arranged by Zhuang Yuci that she was able to save some face in front of others.
Yingchun heard that Jiashan would not attend the party because of a foot injury. Zhang just snorted and took Jiashan's gift list and took a look at it.
This glance made Zhang secretly smack her lips, and she thought to herself: "She is a princess after all, so she is generous." She was secretly happy, and the anger that she had originally felt because Jiashan's courtesy was not there in person disappeared.
However, just a few days after the wedding, Pei Yuantang's wedding time was approaching.
Since it was a wedding of his maternal uncle, Jiashan was not afraid of people knowing about it. Before the official day came, he directly brought a box of gifts from the princess's mansion.
Zhang felt that this was simply a slap in his own face!
She ran to the old lady Wen with a strange and loud voice, put some eye drops on her, and implicitly compared Zhan Yue to a "wolf that can never be tamed". Naturally, she was scolded for "big eye sockets and small belly".
Putting aside the fact that Zhang's depression was self-inflicted, Pei Yuantang's wedding was indeed a lively one.
The Pei family is a family of scholars and is also the maternal family of Empress Yuan. After Zhao Youze regained his sight, more people began to curry favor with the Pei family.
In addition, Gu, who married Pei Yuantang, was also from a famous family in Jiangnan, and the combination of the two families had long become a legend.
On the wedding day, Jiashan followed into the bridal chamber and took a close look at Gu.
Seeing that her demeanor was graceful and elegant, with a broad forehead, curved eyebrows and eyes, and a look that made her a lucky woman for her husband, he felt relieved.
I thought that although my fifth uncle was unreliable, he had a sharp eye. In his previous life, he found Doctor Kong, and in this life, he found the Gu family. I think someone will take care of him in the future, and my cousin will be less of a worry.
She was so happy for Pei Yuantang that she unconsciously ate an extra bowl of rice at dinner.
After dinner, Su Yu brought a plate of newly harvested autumn white pears. Jia Shan had a good appetite, so he ate some.
Zhan Yue saw it and said with a smile: "Look at you, you are happier than the bride."
Jiashan had a pretty face and smiled sweetly, saying, "You don't know, my cousin has a temper that most people can't handle. It's rare that he listens to me for once, and I feel relieved for my uncle and aunt."
"I don't know?" Zhan Yue glanced at her, tapping his slender fingers on the table, his thin lips moved slightly, "I know that he once said that he would teach me a lesson."
This was a joke Pei Yuantang made when he last visited Duke Anguo's mansion. Duke Anguo's mansion was Zhan Yue's territory. Jiashan had known that a servant would inform him, so she didn't take it seriously. She picked up a piece of autumn white pear and fed it into Zhan Yue's mouth herself.
Jiashan said with a smile: "Although he looks like a decent person, he is just a child. Our prince consort is so wise and brave, why would we bother with him?"
Zhan Yue ate the pear from her hand, and his expression eased a little.
His eyes slightly raised, and he said softly, "I'll take a day off tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, so I'll take you to the farm. It's not good to just keep talking nonsense."
Jiashan glanced at him and muttered, "Why do I feel like I'm a country bumpkin in your eyes who has never been anywhere?"
Zhan Yue smiled and said nonchalantly: "The princess knows everything and has been everywhere. Doesn't that mean she can't highlight my advantages?"
"It's not convenient right now. I'll take you to Sichuan or Guangdong and Guangxi later." Zhan Yue would occasionally accompany Emperor Zhang He on tours, visiting many places. He said, "Although the road to Sichuan is difficult, it also has outstanding people and beautiful scenery. You will definitely like it."
Jiashan had been trapped in Beijing for almost two lifetimes and had hardly ever traveled far. Hearing this, her eyes widened slightly, looking dark and clear.
Jiashan said: "The promises made must be kept."
"When did I lie to the princess?" Zhan Yue's handsome features were particularly clear under the light, and the corners of his mouth raised in a small arc.
He had indeed never said anything false, and almost everything he promised was true. Thinking of this, Jiashan felt a little warm in his heart, and shared the few remaining autumn white pear petals on the plate with Zhan Yue.
At night, for some reason, Jiashan tossed and turned and couldn't sleep.
When the two of them slept together, they never asked anyone to watch over her. Zhan Yue saw that she was not sleeping well, so he got up and lit the lamp to check on her.
"What's wrong?" Zhan Yue's worried and gentle voice rang in Jiashan's ears.
Jiashan's eyes were half-closed, and he looked a little gloomy: "My period hasn't come this month. Maybe it's because I ate too much for dinner, so I feel a little uncomfortable."
Zhan Yue first touched her forehead, and when he saw that everything was normal, he went back to bed and pressed his face against Jiashan's.
He asked softly, "Shall I ask someone to call a doctor?"
"Forget it," Jiashan whispered, "it's just a minor problem. It will be fine tomorrow."
"Turn out the lights," she said.
Even though he said so, Zhan Yue couldn't feel relieved. He asked again, "Then how about a glass of Xianglei drink for you?"
Xianglei drink is good for sleeping, and Jiashan didn't object this time. After drinking a cup, she fell into a drowsy sleep. Zhan Yue, on the other hand, was in a light sleep all night, holding her in his arms to keep her warm.
In the morning, I was relieved to see that there was no serious danger in Jiashan.
The next morning, after finishing their breakfast, they both boarded the carriage and headed for the farm outside Beijing as agreed.
