Chapter 96 The Regent (7)

The eyelashes trembled, and he lowered his head, so Pei Qi could only rub his fingertips against the porcelain white cup, "Thank you for the reward from the queen, but my mouth is dry now, I will eat it later."

As he spoke, he pinched the cup of tea with his lowered eyes, and brought it to his lips to take a sip.As if really thirsty.

The queen was slightly taken aback, but she didn't expect this level.

Squinting his eyes, he looked at Pei Qi.

Speaking of which, this child was born beautiful, with a pair of peach blossom eyes that are even more captivating, and her skin is fairer than that of a woman. She is usually calm and cold, and she doesn't like to flirt.

Coupled with the support of the Pei family's status, she chose this marriage for her daughter.

With the military power of the Pei family in the future, my daughter can sit on the throne more comfortably.

But the premise... is that the child cooperates enough.

Her eyes turned cold, but soon, the queen's face was replaced with a gentle smile, and she said to the palace, "Come here quickly, and bring some tea to Pei Qi."

While talking, he pulled up his daughter Ye Nian to talk about the interesting things in the palace recently.

Ye Nian pursed his lips and let out a chuckle from time to time as he listened, his brows and eyes were curved, and his apricot eyes were curved into crescent moons.

Really bright and lively.

It's not as vicious and unreasonable as the outside world describes it.

Pursing her bright red lips, Pei Qi frowned, but glanced at the person and quickly looked away.

He felt that the princess was different from what he had imagined.

It didn't take long for the queen to ask someone to change some fruit plates, and asked the palace servants to pick out her daughter's favorite food.

"Will you have dinner in my palace tonight?"

"Forget it, I have other things to do today." Ye Nian blinked.

The queen squeezed her angrily and stared at her, "You are busy all day long, and you don't know what to do when you run around."

While talking, he saw that the plate in front of Pei Qi hadn't moved.

Then he asked the palace man to add some more and urged him to eat.

Eyelashes fluttered, and the boy sitting beside him looked down at the melons and fruits on the plate.

The fingertips hanging on the legs tightened.

In fact, there are few fruits and vegetables in winter, and it is even rarer to be able to eat exotic food...

but……

He is allergic to cherries.

He raised his eyes and glanced at the queen again. Although his face was still expressionless and indifferent, the fingers tightened on his knees revealed his emotions.

"If Master Shangshu hadn't asked me to talk about government affairs in the afternoon, I would have had dinner with you. I thought that these would be indispensable if I succeeded to the throne in the future. I wanted to listen." Smiling, Ye Nian held a cherry stuff it in your mouth.

The queen originally wanted her daughter to stay for dinner, but when she heard this, her face changed, "Master Shangshu?"

"correct."

Suspicions arose in the Queen's heart immediately, and she frowned, "What else did he say to you..." She paused, "Did you mention Ye Rui and let her go?"

"I think should not be."

While talking, Ye Nian casually reached out and took the fruit plate in front of Pei Qi, and then pushed his own over.

Pei Qimei's eyes paused.

Raising his eyes, he looked at the girl in a daze.

But I saw that the person had already casually continued to talk to the queen.

As if everything just happened by chance.

But the queen's attention was diverted to Lord Shang Shu, and she didn't notice this scene at all.

Pursing his red lips, the young man looked down at the replaced fruit plate in front of him. The cherries in it had been eaten up, and only some melons and fruits that Wu often had were left.

His light gray pupils tightened slightly, and he lowered his eyes.

half an hour.

Lift your fingertips slowly.

He pinched a pear from the plate and sent it to Hong Lips.Eyelashes fluttered.

Princess, do you know that you are allergic to cherries?

……

"Princess, how do you know that I can't eat..." Coming out of the Queen's bedroom, Pei Qi folded his sleeves, "Cherries."

In front of the steps outside the main hall, the girl asked the palace servants to tie a fox fur for herself, and gave him a lazy look.I yawned.

"How do I know it's important to you?"

"..."

A trace of confusion slipped through the light gray pupils, Pei Qi was startled, lowered his eyes and shook his head calmly, "It's not important."

Yes.

It's not that important either.

He was just... a little curious.

The palace people are busy.

Back and forth on the steps, called the sedan chair to wait below.

Ye Nian walked down the steps and paused, but turned around thinking of something, "You won't be moved to like me just because of this."

Slightly concentrating her fingertips, Pei Qi raised her beautiful peach blossom eyes and looked at the girl.

Pupil paused, "No."

The voice was cool and calm.

"The princess and I are two kinds of people, we can't be together." He said with lowered eyes.

"I will not like you, princess."
