Chapter 172 Pei Yuan is here
Seeing her look, Pei Chen raised his eyebrows, and praised: "Miss Yi's painting skills are really amazing, she painted the Queen Mother so vividly, as if she was born that day."

When Empress Dowager Feng heard this, she swallowed back the words she was going to criticize.

The emperor is here, she can't make it too obvious.

Based on Pei Yuan's protection of Yizhu, if she wanted to destroy this girl, she could only do it in secret, otherwise, she would only burn herself.

"Queen Mother, Yizhu has already finished painting for you, and I also want to draw a portrait. If you have nothing to do, I will take her away." Pei Chen said.

Empress Dowager Feng frowned imperceptibly, feeling displeased.

It seems that the reason why the little emperor came to her Palace of Compassion and Peace today was precisely for Yi Zhu.

She should have guessed.

The little emperor never set foot in her Compassionate Palace, but today he stayed there for half a day.

She sneered in her heart, but she didn't feel embarrassed.

"In this case, the Ai family will not keep you."

Hearing this, Pei Chen blinked at Yizhu, and said to the Queen Mother, "Thank you Queen Mother."

"My daughter-in-law will leave." Yi Zhu followed the trend.

Seeing the backs of the two walking out one after the other, a haze flashed in the eyes of the Empress Dowager Feng.

After following the little emperor out of the Compassionate Ning Palace, Yizhu finally breathed a sigh of relief.

At this time, she finally understood that the reason why the little emperor stayed in the Compassionate Ning Palace for so long was to help her escape.

After leaving the Compassionate Ning Palace, Yizhu took two quick steps, walked up to the emperor, bowed his knees and saluted, "Thank you, Your Majesty, today."

Pei Chen waved his hands, not taking it seriously, "You don't have to thank me, you are my future emperor's aunt. If the emperor's uncle is not here, I naturally have an obligation to protect you from being bullied by others."

Yizhu felt a little embarrassed when he heard that, after all, he and Pei Yuan were not formally engaged yet.

It's too early to talk about the future emperor's aunt.

Seeing that she still didn't recognize him, Pei Chen couldn't help but said, "Don't you think I look familiar?"

Yi Zhu was stunned for a moment, she naturally felt that the other party looked familiar, but she couldn't recall where she had seen him before.

But the other party is the emperor, she didn't have the opportunity to enter the palace before, logically speaking, she should have never seen him.

She hesitated for a while and said: "I don't have a chance to see the sky, is it at the Empress Dowager's birthday banquet last time..."

"No, no, it wasn't that time." Pei Chen interrupted her, "Think about it carefully."

Wasn't it that time?
Yizhu was surprised.

But she did see him for the first time that time.

Moreover, she didn't dare to look at him more at that time.

"I don't remember seeing the emperor other than that one time." After a long while, she said cautiously.

Pei Chen choked, and couldn't help wondering, is his face so difficult for people to remember?
"That time in front of the Duke's Mansion." He reminded.

Yizhu was startled, "In front of the Duke's mansion?"

"Yes, do you remember?" Pei Chen raised his eyebrows and asked.

Yizhu looked at him, and suddenly exclaimed, "You are the one who climbed last time..."

The word "disciple" was swallowed back by her in time.

He is the emperor. In this way, what happened last time was obviously a misunderstanding.

How could the emperor be a disciple?

Thinking of this, she blushed for a while, and apologized: "I'm sorry, my daughter didn't know you were the emperor at the time, otherwise..." Otherwise, she wouldn't have asked the servant to drive him away.

"Those who don't know are not guilty! You can't blame Aunt Huang, if you want to blame it, you have to blame yourself. I'm too abrupt." Pei Chen didn't mind at all.

Hearing his address, Yizhu was very embarrassed and shy, "I, I am not yet, the emperor don't call me that..."

Compared to her embarrassment, Pei Chen was extremely calm, and said with a smile: "It will happen sooner or later, I will practice now."

Yizhu: "..."

She coughed lightly, and changed the topic: "By the way, last time the emperor came to the Duke's mansion, why did he ask me?"

Pei Chen smiled mysteriously, and pointed to the wall next to him, "Aunt Huang, look over there."

Yizhu automatically ignored his address and followed his fingers.

When she saw the familiar picture hanging on the wall, she froze.

Isn't that exactly the picture of mountains and rivers she drew?
She quickly figured out what was going on.

When she painted this painting, King Yuan said that he would give the painting to the emperor.

It seems that the emperor will come out of the palace to find her, it must be related to this painting.

"It's getting late today, otherwise I really want you to give me another painting." Pei Chen said.

Yizhu said seriously: "Thanks to the emperor for helping the courtier's siege today, what the emperor wants to paint, he can tell the courtier's daughter at any time, and the courtier's daughter will definitely do her best to draw for you."

"You don't need to be so anxious. When you are free next time, I will ask the emperor to bring you into the palace. But for now, you should go back first. My emperor is here to pick you up." Pei Chen blinked suddenly eye.

Yi Zhu was taken aback, not knowing why, but at this moment, the servant's voice sounded, "King Yuan."

She turned around in surprise.

Sure enough, Pei Yuan came in from the outside.

It's just that he looked a little hurried, obviously he came here in a hurry.

"Uncle Emperor." Pei Chen greeted politely.

Pei Yuan ignored him, walked quickly to Yi Zhu, looked her over quickly, and asked in a deep voice, "How are you, are you injured?"

Seeing him appearing suddenly, Yizhu felt inexplicably at ease in her heart, and shook her head quickly, "It's okay, I'm fine..."

"Really?" Pei Yuan frowned.

"No." Yizhu still shook her head.

Pei Yuan paused, then looked up at Pei Chen.

As soon as he returned to the city from the military camp, he ran into Qiudi, who told him that Yizhu was in danger and told him to enter the palace quickly.

Pei Chen avoided the emperor's uncle's gaze with some guilt. Well, he admitted that what he told Qiudi was indeed a bit exaggerated, but if he didn't say that, the emperor might not rush into the palace immediately.

He explained in a weak voice: "Aunt Huang is fine now, that's because I have been protecting her all the time, if it wasn't for my cleverness, Aunt Huang still doesn't know what would have happened."

With that said, he became more confident.

With Empress Dowager Feng's viciousness, she called Aunt Huang to the Palace of Compassion. The painting must be a cover, and she must be trying to harm Aunt Huang.

After all, Aunt Huang looks much better than her. She must be jealous of Aunt Huang's beauty and wants to harm her.

Therefore, if he hadn't been protecting Aunt Huang, she might have been killed by now.

He did a great job.

Hearing this, Pei Yuan's lips twitched suddenly, "This time, you did a good job." After finishing speaking, he took out a box from his sleeve and threw it to him.

Pei Chen hurriedly caught it.

This is his precious general king. When he was playing secretly in the morning, he was caught by the emperor's uncle and confiscated.

I thought I didn't know when I would be able to get it back, but I didn't expect that after half a day, the uncle returned it to him.

Pei Chen was ecstatic, "Thank you, Uncle Huang." Thinking of something, he rolled his eyes and added, "Nephew should protect Aunt Huang."

A smile appeared on Pei Chen's usually cold face, but he ignored him, and turned his eyes to Yi Zhu, with a faint smile in his eyes.

When Yizhu saw her, her face became hot and she felt embarrassed at the same time. Why did the emperor keep calling her Aunt Huang?
