Chapter 127 Pei Siyan, can't you be a little gentler?
Dou Wenyi suddenly turned her head and met Pei Siyan's deep, dark eyes.
He was dressed in a beige-gold round-necked robe and wore a jade crown, giving him an air of elegance and grace.
Dou Wenyi said calmly, "Actually, I've known for a long time that she's not Nannan."
"oh?"
Pei Siyan raised an eyebrow, his smile deepening, and asked with interest, "Tell me about it?"
"good!"
Inside the hall, Dou Wenyi and Pei Siyan sat facing each other.
Pei Siyan pointed to the snacks on the table and personally poured her a cup of tea. "Try it, don't go hungry."
Dou Wenyi was slightly taken aback. When had he noticed that she couldn't go hungry and suffered from 'dizziness'? He had prepared food for her the first time she entered the palace to take the imperial medicine examination...
“That day I rescued Chunxiang near Fanlou. I asked her, and she said that she got lost from Xie Guidu because she dropped a sugar figurine on the ground and came back to look for it. Although Nannan likes to eat little rabbit sugar figurines, she wouldn’t pick up a dirty sugar figurine that has fallen on the ground and eat it. That’s one point.”
Only children from impoverished families like Chunxiang would cherish the hard-won sugar figurine, even if it fell on the ground and got dirty.
"In addition, although Nannan is spoiled, she is a precocious child. She is sensible and considerate. She always reports good news and never bad news. If it is just a normal fall, she will never tell me."
Even when Xie Mengyao's son Xuan'er threw her into the lake, such a big thing, she was afraid of hurting and troubling herself, so she tried her best to keep it from her.
Moreover, it was just a small fall, but Chunxiang not only took the initiative to tell her, but also tried her best to gain her tenderness.
Xie Guidu probably wanted Chunxiang to imitate Nannan in order to attract her attention and make her mistakenly believe that Nannan was her daughter.
But he forgot that a mother is the one who knows her children best. How could she not tell which child is hers?
Pei Siyan suddenly understood.
If he had known she was so intelligent, why would he have gone to such great lengths to send people to investigate?
He even thought that his daughter from his previous life couldn't let go of her obsession, and that her soul had possessed this little girl named Chunxiang. He almost believed it and fell into Xie Guidu's trap.
Pei Siyan gently took her hand, his voice soft, "Then why were you crying so hard in the street?"
Dou Wenyi couldn't help but laugh, "I'm just a crybaby, see if you get annoyed with me."
She was originally prone to crying, but because she couldn't bear Dou Mingyan's repeated blows, she forced herself to hold back her tears. After that, she dared not shed tears at home easily anymore.
But since her rebirth, she has cried countless times in front of Pei Siyan, and has actually brought back her tendency to cry.
The setting sun cast a golden blush on her face, her fair skin glowing. Her bright almond-shaped eyes, brimming with autumn water, held a hint of mischief and liveliness, stirring the imagination.
Pei Siyan suddenly reached out and grabbed the back of her neck, kissing her without saying a word.
"Your Highness, um—"
The woman's voice struggled to escape from her red lips, then vanished completely amidst their tightly intertwined lips and tongues.
Pei Siyan gently stroked her back, their lips meeting, inch by inch, deepening and intensifying, like a gentle breeze and drizzle, or a raging storm. In the afterglow of the setting sun, soft moans echoed from inside the room.
He kissed her urgently and fiercely, ravaging her lips and greedily devouring the moisture within them.
He only reluctantly pulled away from her lips when she was a little short of breath, licking the corner of her lips with lingering desire, his voice low and husky, "Did you like it?"
Dou Wenyi tried to calm her breathing, "Pei Siyan... couldn't you be a little gentler?"
Every time I kiss her, her skin gets red and swollen, and it even hurts a little!
Her coquettish voice ignited a raging fire within him.
Pei Siyan's phoenix eyes were unfathomable, and his voice was low and husky, "If you keep doing this... try provoking me again."
He longed to carry her to the bed and hear her beg for mercy...
Just then, a cough was heard, followed by Eunuch Anxi's high-pitched voice from outside the door, "Your Highness, the Heir Apparent requests an audience!"
Dou Wenyi was slightly taken aback.
Pei Siyan glanced down at her, his voice cold, deep, and husky, "Bring him in."
With a creak, the palace doors suddenly opened.
The hall was quiet, with dim candlelight casting a hazy glow. The young eunuch immediately came in to light the lamps.
The ambiguous atmosphere was gradually dispelled by the light.
As soon as Xie Guidu stepped across the threshold, he saw a familiar skirt flash behind the sandalwood crane screen.
He looked up and saw that Pei Siyan's collar was slightly open, and there seemed to be a beautiful red mark on his neck, while his thin lips were an excessively alluring red.
Xie Guidu paused for a moment, noticing that the skirt was the same color as the one Dou Wenyi was wearing today.
She and Pei Siyan were trying to cover it up, but it was obvious, clearly, that they were secretly kissing!
He always thought she would be his wife, in this life or the next, but now she has given herself to another man.
Both body and mind!
Jealousy raged within him, and he wished he could kill Pei Siyan with a knife.
Pei Siyan smiled enigmatically. "Thank you for coming, Your Highness. What brings you here?"
Xie Guidu came to his senses and bowed. "My daughter Nannan got lost in Jingmingfang. Someone saw that it was the guards from the East Palace who took her away. She is timid and afraid of trouble. I hope Your Highness will return her to me. I would be extremely grateful!"
"My daughter? Young Master Xie is a talented young man, born at a young age?"
The guards of the Eastern Palace found a little girl, but her name isn't Nannan; it's Chunxiang. And her mother has already come to claim her. It seems the Nannan that Prince Xie is looking for isn't in the Eastern Palace.
"By the way, the little girl's mother brought the household registration documents with her. Does Prince Xie have any documents proving the girl's identity?"
Xie Guidu frowned, the contract he was holding in his hand looking quite ridiculous.
The laws of the dynasty forbid anyone from buying and selling innocent girls into slavery or servitude. Pei Siyan probably already knows Nannan's true identity, which is why he is so fearless.
Seeing that he remained silent, Pei Siyan gave a look to the person beside him.
Anxi immediately took out the painting collection and placed it in front of Xie Guidu.
"Young Master Xie, if you are unwilling to serve the country and continue to draw these obscene things, I will cripple your hands!"
