Chapter 196 Extra: If Pei Yan was reborn (5)
Jiang Shuyi knew it would be like this.
She is too stupid, spoiled and willful, how can she be worthy of the noble and gentle Crown Prince...
Jiang Shuyi was a little sad.
Originally, she just had some liking for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, but there was also some fear mixed with it. But when he held her tightly in his arms and she rolled down from a great height just now, that trace of fear disappeared, and her liking for him grew stronger and stronger, like a snowball in winter.
Apart from her aunt, no one has ever protected her like this.
Jiang Shuyi wanted to marry him, stay with him for the rest of her life, and let him hold her and protect her like this, but His Royal Highness the Crown Prince had no such intention.
He clearly said that I was his person on the day I first entered the Eastern Palace.
Jiang Shuyi began to reflect on whether she was really too naughty and made His Royal Highness the Crown Prince give up this idea.
If that's the case, then she'd better be good.

After Pei Yan recovered from the pain in his body, he stood up, picked up Jiang Shuyi, who was daydreaming, and let her climb onto his neck and carried her into the Hanzhu Pavilion.
He was not seriously injured, but I was worried that the little girl was too delicate and might have gotten hurt even while being protected.
Pei Yan asked her to lie on the couch and pinched her legs and arms bit by bit. Every time he pinched a part, he asked, "Does it hurt?"
His palms were large, strong, and restrained, providing just the right amount of strength for a very comfortable feeling.
Jiang Shuyi squinted her eyes comfortably, shaking her head and humming with enjoyment.
Pei Yan laughed angrily.
She was quite bold and dared to ask the crown prince to give her a massage.
He deliberately asked in a colder voice: "Will you dare to climb trees in the future?"
Jiang Shuyi remembered that she had to act good, so she quickly put on a humble and submissive look and admitted her mistake: "I won't dare to do it again, I won't dare to do it again..."
I admitted my mistakes in the previous life, but in the end I still didn’t listen.
Pei Yan was afraid that she would not learn her lesson, so after confirming that she was fine, he continued in a cold voice: "You must make up double the homework I assigned you before. If you dare to put yourself in danger again next time, don't blame me for using family discipline on you."
Jiang Shuyi was so frightened that she looked up at Pei Yan in disbelief.
How can people change their expressions so quickly!
When they were on the tree, he said that as long as she was happy and healthy, that was enough!
But His Royal Highness the Crown Prince changed his mind, and Jiang Shuyi could do nothing about it.
She didn't dare to act coquettishly and could only do her homework with a sad face.
Pei Yan did not leave either, and told Cheng Shouzhong to bring all the medicine and official business here.
The Eastern Palace had some ointments for skin abrasions stored. Cheng Shouzhong carefully checked his master's injuries and applied the ointment.
The scratch was on the back of his hand, but there was also a scratch on his face. Cheng Shouzhong couldn't help but worry: "What should I do at the court tomorrow morning?"
Jiang Shuyi quietly raised her eyes and glanced over here.
Pei Yan said calmly: "It's okay, ask Cheng Fu for some disguise cream to cover it up a little."
Jiang Shuyi began to feel guilty again.
She blinked her sore eyes, lowered her head, took a deep breath, and decided to study hard to repay the Crown Prince who was like her teacher and father to her.

Pei Yan felt that his ankle was still a little sprained, so after spending a cup of tea with Jiang Shuyi, he returned to Mingde Hall for a check-up.
There was some redness and swelling, so Cheng Shouzhong quickly took out some safflower oil and applied it.
"Your Highness, please forgive me for being so nosy. Why do you think so highly of Miss Jiang?"
Cheng Shouzhong is only eighteen years old this year, not as mature as he will be in the future, so he was confused and troubled for several days but couldn't help asking.
He could feel that His Highness was still his Highness, but his style of doing things had suddenly changed.
In the past, he was always gentle and refined, with the demeanor of a gentleman, and Cheng Shouzhong had to play the villain to suppress him. But now, His Highness's methods in the court have become increasingly fierce, and the pressure on him has become much heavier. He even dares to openly confront General Wen.
It's really incredible...
And all this happened after Miss Jiang entered the Eastern Palace.
Cheng Shouzhong has served Pei Yan since he was a child. He is sure that his master has no previous connection with the Jiang family. Why would he be so indulgent and doting on Miss Jiang?
Pei Yan raised his eyes and glanced at him.
He knew that Cheng Shouzhong had always been loyal to him.
Pei Yan did not explain anything, but said calmly: "Cheng Shouzhong, you just need to remember that it was me who saved you from the stick."
Cheng Shouzhong was stunned for a moment, then his whole body trembled, and he knelt down and kowtowed: "I know that Your Highness has been very kind to me! I have said too much!"
Pei Yan said nothing more.
At night, when he was about to fall asleep, he suddenly heard a slight creaking sound from the palace door.
Pei Yan's eyes suddenly opened and his hand touched the dagger beside the pillow.
"Oh, girl, you can't go in. His Highness has really gone to bed..."
"I know, I quietly..."
Pei Yan let go of the dagger in his hand and hid it under the pillow again to avoid scaring the little girl.
Jiang Shuyi thought she had convinced Cheng Shouzhong through coercion and inducement, but she didn't know that Cheng Shouzhong had deliberately made a noise so that the prince would wake up and hear their conversation.
Since His Highness did not stop it, Cheng Shouzhong did not stop it either.
Jiang Shuyi ran to Pei Yan's bed holding an embroidered pillow.
With the bright moonlight outside the window, she saw His Royal Highness the Crown Prince sleeping with his eyes closed.
That face was still so beautiful, just like my aunt, gentle, beautiful and kind.
Jiang Shuyi put the pillow outside and climbed onto the bed using her hands and feet.
Pei Yan felt her lying on his chest.
He couldn't help but wonder, if another man treated her so well, would she also climb into his bed in the middle of the night?
How old is she? Didn’t Jiang Weiqing teach her that boys and girls under the age of seven should sit together separately to avoid suspicion?
Jiang Shuyi found a comfortable position and fell into a deep sleep.
Pei Yan couldn't fall asleep. He opened his eyes, looked down at the sleeping Jiang Shuyi for a while, then stood up, put her inside, and covered her with the quilt slowly.
When Jiang Shuyi woke up the next day, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was gone.
She sat up in a daze, remembering the nightmare she had last night.
It was so scary. She didn't know which evil creature was strangling her and was about to strangle her to death. When Jiang Shuyi woke up, she broke out in a cold sweat and was so frightened that she ran to find His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince discovered this morning that she hadn't thrown it away either. Does that mean he was no longer angry with her for climbing the tree yesterday?
Jiang Shuyi breathed a sigh of relief.
It seems that His Highness has a sharp tongue but a soft heart, and he still loves her very much.
But why not let her be a concubine?
Jiang Shuyi was very clear about her own identity. Her father's official position was not high, and she had no reputation for talent or virtue. When she attended banquets, many young ladies of dukes and marquises were unwilling to play with her. If she wanted to marry into the Eastern Palace, it would be almost the same as being a concubine.
If he didn't allow her to be a concubine, it meant he didn't want to marry her, but he treated her so well, taught her to read and write, worried about her safety, and scolded her when he was angry...
An idea gradually emerged in Jiang Shuyi's mind.
Could it be that he wanted to raise her as a daughter because she was so cute?
It's no wonder she thinks so. All the elders she has met since she was a child, whether with good intentions or bad intentions, have praised her for being as cute as a snow ball, delicate and exquisite, and they said it would be great if they could have a daughter like her.
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince probably thinks the same way.
Jiang Shuyi took a deep breath and made up her mind to study hard and be filial to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince in the future!
