"Really?" Pei Ji raised his lips and smiled, then reached out to pick up the book placed aside, then patted Zhao Lanshe on the head and said, "Little brat? Let's go, I will take you home."
"Of course it is, that's when you didn't see how powerful this princess is." Zhao Lanshe continued following his words, but when Zhao Lanshe heard the second half of the sentence, he was still stunned.
"You...you take me home? We are not familiar with each other, right? Isn't this inappropriate?" Zhao Lanshe asked hesitantly. Of course, one was Zhao Lanshe who felt that it was not necessary, and the other was this person
It's a bit unbelievable to be so kind all of a sudden.
"Yes, let's go." Pei Ji took the book from Zhao Lanshe again, followed Zhao Lanshe behind him, and then said: "Just now your brother wrote a letter, saying that he was worried that you would break into the palace alone at night.
I will send you to the Huai'an Prince's Mansion."
Zhao Lanshe was stunned for a moment. She didn't expect that her brother had to be reliable. He was quite thoughtful, but was it his request to help her carry things? But this was not like his style. So, looking back
He asked Pei Ji: "Um...Pei Ji? It was my...brother who asked me to get the books for me? Or is this how Zhao Yuezhi usually goes out with you...has it become a habit?"
Zhao Lanshe really didn't mean anything. He just felt that if it was the former, Zhao Lanshe would be a little touched when he thought about it. If it was the latter, Zhao Lanshe could only say it was, and felt a little sorry for Pei Ji. It turned out that the ancient family
Young Master, you can’t escape the fate of following girls shopping and carrying bags...
Pei Ji was stunned for a moment. He actually didn't expect that his action had such meaning. He felt like a ball of cotton was stuck in his heart. He didn't even raise his head. He just said in a dull voice: "Zhao Yuezhi was followed by palace officials when he went out.
,Not like you……"
After Zhao Lanshe heard this, did he blame himself for not bringing a maid? To be honest, as a modern person, Zhao Lanshe really couldn't bear to have someone following him around to serve him every day, even if he took a shower. Besides, in modern times,
He goes to and from school by himself, and now that he has been here for a few years, he is not so weak that he cannot lift a few books.
"Okay, okay, my fault, my fault." When Zhao Lanshe saw Pei Ji, he was no longer as lively as usual. Instead, he lowered his head strangely. He didn't know what he was thinking. He could guess what he was thinking.
You weren't angry just because of this incident? So you quickly pretended to beg for mercy and admitted your mistake.
Pei Ji didn't say anything, he just stayed with Zhao Lanshe quietly, and then walked slowly with his things. After a while, Zhao Lanshe felt that the atmosphere was a little awkward, so he said, "But... Pei's Mansion is still far away from the Huai'an Prince's Mansion."
Far? If it's far, after you send me to Huai'an Prince's Mansion, I will instruct a few people to take you back to Pei Mansion."
"I don't live in the Pei Mansion, but I live in the Lin Mansion. Besides, you little brat doesn't have to be like this. Although the Lin Mansion is not close to the Huai'an Prince's Mansion, it is in the same direction, so, you kid
You don’t have to worry about me going in the opposite direction." Pei Ji said with a smile.
"Lin Mansion..." Zhao Lanshe muttered in a low voice, his eyes rolling, and he couldn't help but start to think about why Pei Ji, whose surname is Pei, lives in Lin Mansion. It's so strange...forget it, maybe this is the so-called
Every family must have scriptures that are difficult to recite.
The last touch of the setting sun was hidden in the darkness. The wind blew through the long alley in the palace. Birds from nowhere were chirping incessantly. The palace people walked by softly. For some reason, Zhao Lan
She remembered those horror movies she had watched in modern times. The vermilion palace walls, the screams in the long alleys, and the dead ghosts always complemented each other and were intertwined in the movies.
Zhao Lanshe couldn't help but shiver. Pei Ji, who was walking behind her, naturally saw her action, but Pei Ji probably thought that Zhao Lanshe was a little cold due to the wind.
After all, although it is early spring, the east wind still carries a hint of coolness. This is probably the weather in Chang'an. It is different from the warmth in the south. It is obviously March weather, but except for peach blossoms, there are no new buds on the willow trees.
"Little brat, are you... cold?" Pei Ji didn't know how to speak. He hesitated for a long time before slowly speaking. He originally thought that while it was not very late, he would send Zhao Lanshe back to Huai'an early.
The palace is fine, but now it will probably take some time on the road.
"I...I'm not cold, I just thought of some bad memories." Zhao Lanshe came to his senses after being asked by Pei Ji. He quickly shook his head and said, and patted his head gently.
, he slandered: This stupid person doesn’t know what to think about all day long.
Now that he had received the answer, Pei Ji did not ask any more questions, but silently followed Zhao Lanshe towards the Huai'an Prince's Palace.
After walking through palace alleys and looking at palace walls, finally, the palace gate with four-cornered eaves appeared in front of me. The glazed tiles added a bit of mystery to the place in the dark night.
"Princess Chengyang, this is the young master of the Pei family." Zhao Lanshe said very seriously as he took out his belt card.
Pei Ji didn't say much, and walked straight forward. Zhao Lanshe was a little stupid when he saw this scene...and stayed where he was. Hey, did I remember it wrong?! Isn't this the palace? Why is it so casual?
What about entry and exit?
"This...this..." Zhao Lanshe looked at the guard brother standing beside him and said hesitantly.
"Back to the princess, Mr. Pei often comes to the palace to accompany you, and his temper is unruly. Over time, the guards at our city gate all recognized Mr. Pei, and naturally they didn't ask any more questions." The eldest brother seemed to have noticed Zhao Lanshe's attitude.
Questioned, he made a bow and answered respectfully.
"Oh, that's it..." Is this the so-called emmmmmm personality charm? Zhao Lanshe couldn't help but cursed, and then looked up at the figure of the man walking away gracefully, and couldn't help but worry and muttered: "I just said it.
Two sentences?"
"Little brat, come on." Pei Ji happened to turn around and meet Zhao Lanshe's eyes, then waved to Zhao Lanshe and shouted.
"Well, here we come." Zhao Lanshe responded and ran forward. He probably hadn't reacted yet. For some reason, Zhao Lanshe listened to Pei Ji's words this time and didn't bother to argue.
He hurriedly ran towards Pei Ji.
Lanterns of various colors were hung high on both sides of the shops, illuminating the whole street with a warm yellow glow. The businesswoman on the side had her hair pulled up with a scarf and was selling in a simple coarse cloth.
Between Xingzi's lanterns, a young man in black robes was waiting for Zhao Lanshe.
Zhao Lanshe was not in a hurry. Since arriving in Beijing, this was the first time he saw the night market in Chang'an City. Although it was different from what was shown in the TV series, it was also magnificent to the extreme.
Zhao Lanshe looked left and right for a while at the shadow puppet show on the street, then at the hairpin jewelry bought in the store, and at the street performers.
It seems that the night market here has everything to eat and drink. It is said that for twenty cents, you can eat Changzui Pavilion's crispy green leaves, poppy milk fish, roasted duck and other delicacies.
If you eat too much meat, you will naturally have to have a wide variety of cold drinks. For example, shaved ice, ice powder, ice and snow cold yuanzi, sour plum soup, ice lychee, etc. are almost impossible to take your eyes away from.
But in this night market, there is not only food and drink, but also street performers playing music and singing. When people are most excited about having fun, they will come up and sing for you to cheer you up, and it just so happens that you are happy.
So it became this business.
In Zhao Lanshe's impression, although there is a night market in Huai'an, the scale is not as large as here. Of course, it cannot be ruled out that she is a "little princess" who was raised there and has not visited the night market much.
Zhao Lanshe felt curious about everything she looked at. She picked up this thing to look at, and then put down the thing that surprised her.
"Hey, Pei Ji!" Zhao Lanshe shouted to Pei Ji. She waved her hand towards Pei Ji and asked: "Um... I want to try some ice powder. What about you? Do you want to eat too? I am the princess.
Please."
The fact that he wanted to try ice powder was not because of anything else, but because Zhao Lanshe visited this night market and almost all of them, except for candied haws and Sichuan ice powder, could not be found in modern times. In other words, Zhao Lanshe did not want to try it.
I eat ice powder, but I feel homesick, thinking of the modern era after the distant history, thinking of my parents there, thinking of the life there...
Pei Ji spends some time on weekdays in Jingwu Hall studying marksmanship. Speaking of which, he has never visited the night market in Chang'an. Naturally, he doesn't know if Chang'an today is the same as he remembered it when he was a child.
Pei Ji walked to Zhao Lanshe, and to his surprise, Zhao Lanshe actively reached out and took the book from his hand.
"Um... how about I watch for you first? Or if you want to go back home first, then you can leave first. I will explain it to my brother." Zhao Lanshe didn't know what to say and was a little hesitant.
Said hesitantly.
"My child...it's getting later than it was just now. Not to mention what your elder brother said, if something happens to you, I'm afraid your majesty won't be able to spare me?" Pei Ji lifted up his robe and sat down without a care in the world.
He walked to the stall and said, "Madam boss, please bring two bowls of ice powder."
"Hey, okay." The woman responded and hurriedly turned around, cut the watermelon into small cubes like dice, and placed them neatly on the bowl of ice powder.
"Pei Ji, actually you seem to be quite good when you are like this." Zhao Lanshe suddenly said such a sentence for some unknown reason. Zhao Lanshe didn't react until he finished speaking.
People say that it is difficult to take back the words that have been poured out. I think it is the hardest thing to take back what you say. Pei Ji's clear and clean eyes showed a little surprise, and then he joked as usual: "Master, I have always been very good, right? It's you who used to be
I didn’t even notice it.”
"Hey, you can't say that. Mr. Pei is such a big man, so Lan She can't notice it? Do you think so?" Zhao Lanshe pretended to roll his eyes and said with a smile.
