Chapter 508
Xiao Lingjiang pressed her down calmly, and pointedly said: "It's not wise to be attached to one person. If Miss Huang doesn't want to, then just pretend I didn't say anything."

She naturally knew Yongle's thoughts on Cui Shu, but not to mention that Cui Shu had no interest in her, she said that her thoughts were going to be lost in the current situation.

The Cui family has a prominent family, Cui Huai brothers are all important ministers in the court, and Cui Shu is also the number one scholar of the new family.Such a powerful family of ministers would not easily stand in the battle for imperial power, and the emperor would not allow it.

So at the beginning the prince's position was stable, Yongle, as the prince's younger sister, clearly liked Cui Shu, and according to the emperor's love for her, he never thought of giving her a marriage.

King Duan fell due to corruption, and the Cui family was never implicated because they broke up with him a long time ago.

In the meantime, one can see the emperor's mind, and the other can see Cui's long-term thinking.

Up to now, the crown prince's position is already in jeopardy, and the emperor has other plans.The matter between Yongle and Cui Shu can be said to be even more hopeless.

If Yongle still can't recognize this point, clinging to him won't do her any good.

Seeing that other people noticed the movement and wanted to look at this place, Yong Le had no choice but to stop his voice in displeasure.

It's not that she doesn't understand the meaning behind Xiao Lingjiang's words, but she is still a little bit unwilling after all.

Now that the empress mother and the emperor's brother are in a bad situation, she doesn't want to make a hasty decision on her life.However, if the marriage is finalized, what if it really falls on her...

Xiao Lingjiang knew her worries, so he didn't say anything, but raised his glass and drank leisurely.

Seeing that others no longer pay attention to this place, she said in a low voice: "Since ancient times, the great kingdoms have been in harmony, how many are the direct blood of the reigning emperor? The imperial sister really doesn't need to worry too much, but she messed up her position and only annoyed the emperor's uncle. "

If you ask her, even if the marriage is settled, it may not be her turn to choose this person.Although the empress and prince had lost power, Yongle was still the emperor's spoiled princess.

Now it is Xifan who is taking the initiative to repair and ask for marriage. How can the people of Xifan pick and choose?
If you sincerely cultivate it well, you can make a daughter of the clan and marry Xifan, and Xifan can also treat her like a treasure.If there were other intentions, even if the emperor sent him the jewel in his palm, then Xifan would just throw it away like a shoe.

The emperor cares about saving face, so why would he let Xi Fan handle this matter?

Yongle thought for a while, and his eyes suddenly lit up.She was about to speak again, but was blocked by a glass of fruit wine handed over by Xiao Lingjiang: "This wine is not bad, sister might as well drink two more glasses."

Yongle was inexplicably stuffed with a glass of wine, and knew that she didn't want to say anything more, so he could only swallow the words in his stomach.

She raised her hand and drank the wine in one gulp. The fruit wine had no alcohol taste but was particularly refreshing, which seemed to have wiped away the restlessness and worry in her heart.

After hesitating for a moment, Yongle still asked: "Yong'an, if you are free, how about sitting at my residence some other day?"

Now it is inconvenient for her to go out of the house but there is no one to talk about. Although Yong'an is two years younger than her and people are not pleasing to the eye, but right now he has to admit that she is more knowledgeable than himself.

Where I can't make up my mind, I don't mind listening to her opinion.

Xiao Lingjiang met her expectant eyes and nodded after a long silence: "Okay."

Above the palace banquet, there was nothing more than silk and bamboo singing and dancing, drinking and laughing, and when the banquet was over, the night was already getting dark.

After Xiao Lingjiang returned home, he took off his wine-smelling clothes under Qiong Zhi's service, then waved his hand to signal them all to retreat, and turned behind the screen by himself.

After taking a bath, she changed into clean clothes and sat at the table with her wet hair still tucked together.

Qiongzhi stepped forward, wanting to help her dry her wet hair, but Xiao Lingjiang waved his hands and said, "No, you all should step back and rest, I don't need anyone to take care of my place."

"Yes." Qiong Zhi and the others bowed and retreated as they said.

The room gradually became quiet, and the only candle flickered gently.

Xiao Lingjiang went to the window and pushed it open: "Why? Do you want to stand until dawn?"

Outside the window was Pei You with red ears, who didn't know whether to advance or retreat.

Xiao Lingjiang didn't defend against him, although there were restrictions around his residence, he was the only one who came and went freely.

It's just that it was not the right time for him to come, it was the time for Xiao Lingjiang to take a bath and change clothes.

As soon as Pei You opened the window and went in, he caught sight of figures behind the screen and the sound of splashing water.

Before Xiao Lingjiang could say anything, he blushed, jumped out of the window, and closed the window tightly with his hand.

Pei You looked at the person by the window. After taking a bath, she seemed to be surrounded by a dense mist, which seemed more ethereal and gentle in the candlelight at night.

He only felt a slight itch in his heart, lowered his eyes not to look at her, and then rolled over and entered.

Seeing this, Xiao Lingjiang couldn't help laughing: "Apei, I'm not embarrassed, but you have become shy. What's the reason?"

Before she finished speaking, Pei You turned around, put her arms around her waist and pressed her against the window: "What do you think?" His voice was still a little hoarse and sultry.

Under the action, Xiao Lingjiang's clothes were slightly loosened, revealing his white and delicate collarbone.

Pei You's eyes suddenly turned dark, and Xiao Lingjiang realized that he was joking too much. How can a man of just the right age be able to be teased?

But seeing him trying so hard to suppress it, she didn't feel distressed.

Xiao Lingjiang stretched out his hand to cover Pei You's eyes, feeling the long eyelashes fluttering in the palm of his hand like feathers, tickling.Then, she stood on tiptoe and placed a kiss on his lips.

"Apei, if you want it, you don't need to be patient."

Pei You's eyelashes trembled suddenly, and she leaned over to deepen the kiss.

In the midst of lingering sorrow, the clothes are half faded.

Pei You inadvertently touched her drooping wet hair, and stopped her movements.

Seeing that her hair was still dripping water, he calmed down a few breaths, coughed lightly and said, "Hair is still wet, I'll dry it for you first, don't catch a cold."

As he said that, he let go of his hand, took the towel that was hung by the table and helped her wipe her wet hair.

Xiao Lingjiang sat at the table, his eyes were still full of emotion, and his face was as attractive as a lotus.

She turned sideways, and Zhi Yi looked at Pei You who was beside him, he only lowered his eyes and focused on the wet hair under his eyes, as if he didn't notice her gaze.

Xiao Lingjiang couldn't help but said: "A Pei..."

"En." Amidst the flickering candlelight, Pei You replied softly, with a gentle voice.

"Are you really going to brush my hair right now?"

"Yeah." Pei You used a towel to wring out the water from the ends of her hair, and then held her breath on her palm to help her dry her wet hair like this, "You were injured in Chizhou earlier, so you should be more careful. "

Xiao Lingjiang couldn't help being dumbfounded when he saw the way he was drying his hair without distraction.

She stretched out her thin finger and poked his chest: "Don't want to?"

Pei You grabbed her mischievous finger and said in a hoarse voice, "I think so."

"It's just that it's not a good time right now. You have been seriously injured several times before, and you have hidden worries." He paused and said, "It won't be too late until your body is fully recuperated."

Xiao Lingjiang looked at the suppressed tumbling in his eyes, shook his head and smiled: "Fool."
