Today, the hostess, has she lost her studies?

It was already late at night after the dinner party, and at another place, Pei Guanlan returned to the palace, and did not send someone to ask Pei Ting to smell it in a hurry.

It was only when Pei Tingwen came down to pay her respects the next day that she mentioned what the maid had reported to her.

"Where did you go last night?"

She sat in the main seat, while drinking tea, straight to the point.

After a short glance, his eyes fell on the sachet tied to one side of his waist - that was where he wore the jade pendant in the past.

After giving away the jade pendant, his belt was empty for several days without wearing anything.

Then suddenly one day, there was something new in that empty space.

Originally, there was no need to be surprised. Without the jade pendant, it is not surprising to use a sachet as an accessory.

Oddly enough, the little flowers embroidered on the back of the sachet - not his style at all.

It was like a token of love given to him by a girl, but when she asked, he didn't answer, and just casually said that it was given to him by a sensible child.

Who is the specific child, he did not mention.

Now think about it...

It turned out that the child he was talking about was the future third concubine.

Pei Tingwen, who was dressed in crimson court clothes and had not had time to change, had a tall official hat, a face like a crown jade, a peerless talent, with a cold and heartless appearance.

When he wasn't smiling, his expression was always calm, and the scar on his brow cut off his gentle and gentle vigor, adding a bit of unruly and fierceness.

Facing Pei Guanlan's questioning question, he lowered his eyebrows, as if he already knew what she was asking, he poured tea and took a sip.

"Last night, what did sister know?"

"..." Pei Guanlan almost didn't come up when she saw that he was not in a hurry when she knew about him.

"What do I know? What can I know? You took leave of absence from dinner last night just to see a—a—"

"Do you know that she is the third concubine? She is already on the empress's side!"

Pei Guanlan couldn't figure it out, not at all.

How could he fall in love with a——

Not to mention the identity, it is inappropriate just to put the age there.

His age is almost twice the age of others, people of the uncle generation, are you messing around, isn't it?

"..." He rubbed the cup slightly with his fingertips, raised his eyes, his black eyes were cold and rational, "what is sister thinking?"

"Si... to me, the second girl is just a child, a little sister, and I have no other intentions."

"No other meaning?" Pei Guanlan's eyes revealed the words "Do you believe me?" "There is no other meaning. You left the feast in the palace and refused to participate in the Mid-Autumn Festival. You even asked His Majesty for leave and ran to play with her?"

"To be honest, I'm curious. When did you have such a good relationship with her? Do you often meet in private?"

If someone who wasn't her happened to bump into while inquiring about the news——

I don't know how long he will keep it from her.

"The jade pendant given by the master, did you give it to her? Is this sachet also given to you by her? Are you privately destined for life?"

"..." Pei Tingwen didn't speak, and raised his right hand slightly, seemingly inadvertently blocking his sachet.

Facing the questioning, he remained calm, and replied: "No, no, sister, don't think too much, there is...no relationship between us."

"It's okay?" Pei Guanlan grasped his words accurately, "From your tone, do you want to have something to do with her?"
