Chapter 382: Shoulders
The scenes in the study during the day kept coming to my mind...
Pei Mochen felt romantic in his heart, and he still wanted to spend the bridal chamber tonight.
In the bedroom of Jianjia Pavilion, Xiangqin lit a few more candles tonight and was gently applying ointment on Mu Wanyan's beautiful back.
"Master, if you want to visit the Regent's Palace at night, you can just climb over the wall. Why would you have to crawl through a dog hole?"
"Look, now the skin is scratched, right?"
Mu Wanyan's skin was delicate, like a peeled egg, white and tender, with a few red marks, which made her look particularly pitiful.
"The Prince Regent's Palace is heavily guarded and the walls are high. I can't get in at all."
Mu Wanyan was wearing a light-colored bellyband and lying obediently on the couch, shouting “shashasha” in pain as she spoke.
"The dog hole is the only way out I could find, and it was already very difficult."
While helping her apply the medicine, Xiang Qin complained, "Not only did he not find the lecher, he also recognized a money-hungry eunuch as his brother."
"The banknotes are gone, the pearl hairpins are gone, even the earrings and jewelry are gone. The only thing missing from your underwear is that someone has swindled you out of it."
Mu Wanyan: "Don't say bad things about my brother. He has a miserable life, is tall, handsome, and looks like a demon in the world... He is obviously a good person."
Xiang Qin rolled her eyes. "Master, do you mean that because he is handsome, he is a good person?"
Mu Wanyan shook her head and said, "If you saw it, you wouldn't be able to walk."
"What a pity, such a handsome man is a eunuch. His waist is his waist, his legs are his legs, and he is a very well-behaved man..."
Mu Wanyan chuckled, "He's exactly the same as the lecher who insulted my innocence yesterday."
Parsley: “…”
"Master, why do you sound a little happy?"
Mu Wanyan blushed, "That's impossible. Please help me apply the ointment. I don't want to have a scar on my back."
Xiang Qin pursed her lips, "Master, I think that young eunuch must have other purposes for approaching you."
"What purpose?"
Xiangqin: "For the master's money!"
"The princess was almost tricked into becoming a nymphomaniac by that little eunuch."
Mu Wanyan didn't care. She took out the Xuan Yue dagger and placed it on the bed with a "pop". "Did you see? He also gave me a dagger."
In order to save face for the "poor" Di Xiuyan, the kind-hearted Mu Wanyan began to point at the dagger and "talk nonsense": "It can cut iron like mud, it is priceless, it can buy... it can buy several streets."
Xiang Qin: "Master, this scabbard is rusty, you really believe it."
Then, he casually placed the dagger on the table without looking at it again.
-
Meanwhile, the Regent's Palace.
Di Xiuyan was in a daze holding the pile of tokens that he had deceived.
Chi Yan and Meng Xiao walked closer and took a look. Wow, there were pearl hairpins, earrings, bracelets, and a huge stack of silver bills.
"Master...Master, did you...did you just go to rob?"
Di Xiuyan: "This is a token of love between me and Yanyan."
Chi Yan: "Is there anyone who takes a girl's silver as a token of trust?"
Meng Xiao also stammered, "Master, are you having any troubles lately?"
He took out two gold bars from his sleeves and said, "If you have any difficulties, please use the gold I have on me first."
Before Meng Xiao finished speaking, Chi Yan kicked him first, "Are you a tiger? Even if the sun rises from the west, our master will never be short of money."
Meng Xiao: "Then... why is that?"
He looked at Di Xiuyan blankly, "Master, a man should give money to a woman. You...you can't take advantage of her young age and turn against her."
"Puff—" Di Xiuyan sprayed out the water he had just drunk and praised: "Not bad, Meng Xiao is a rare gentleman."
He explained: "If I don't take some silver for small things, she won't remember how poor I am, and then she won't feel sorry for me."
Thinking of Mu Wanyan's cute and silly look, Di Xiuyan's lips curled up slightly, "From now on, all the money in my warehouse will belong to her, and I will never bully her."
Then he looked at Meng Xiao meaningfully and said with a smile: "Very good, Meng Xiao is someone a woman can trust."
Meng Xiao quickly waved his hands and said, "No, no, no, Master, I don't like Mu Wanyan. She's not my type. Please don't promise her to me."
Chi Yan glared at Meng Xiao and kicked him again, "Are you crazy? Your master praised you and you were so happy that your tail was raised?"
"Although Miss Mu is plain-looking, the master likes her. Why would he promise her to you?"
Emperor Xiuyan: “…”
He said in a deep voice: "You two, go out and run ten miles. You are not allowed to sleep until you finish the run."
After everyone left, Di Xiuyan muttered to himself, "Yan Yan is plain looking? Meng Xiao even said he didn't like her? Oh, why did I raise these two stupid and blind people?"
-
The scene then returns to Prince Chen's Mansion and Pei Mochen.
He was dressed and looking very energetic, and because he was in a good mood, he walked very quickly.
It normally takes a long time to walk this distance, but Pei Mochen arrived outside the Jianjia Pavilion in just a moment.
When the palace servant saw Prince Chen, he was about to inform him but was stopped by Pei Mochen.
"I will quietly go over to see the princess, without making a fuss."
He almost trotted to Mu Wanyan's bedroom, but at the last step, he hesitated.
He raised his hand several times and wanted to knock on the door, but after trying for a long time, Pei Mochen still didn't dare to knock on the door.
He kept circling around the door of Mu Wanyan's bedroom, walking back and forth.
She kept adjusting her hair and clothes, her heart was pounding and even her hands were shaking slightly.
Pei Mochen smiled helplessly, laughing at his own lack of success.
When she came just now, she was still ambitious and wanted to eat the newly married princess tonight. But when she was about to see her, she hesitated and was afraid.
The closer I get to home, the more timid I feel; the more I love, the more afraid I become.
Pei Mochen took several deep breaths, and after encouraging himself countless times, he gently knocked on the tightly closed bedroom door.
"Yanyan, are you asleep?"
"I'm Brother Chen, I want to see you."
The room was quiet for a moment, and then the girl's panicked voice was heard again. Mu Wanyan said in a panic: "I'm asleep, I'm asleep, Brother Chen, I'm asleep. We'll talk about it tomorrow if there's anything."
Pei Mochen curved his lips and smiled. Yanyan still had a gap between them and him. How could she talk when she was asleep?
He was not angry with her, but just said softly: "Can you answer Brother Chen's questions after sleeping?"
With a slight force of his palm, Pei Mochen pushed the door open.
Carrying the night breeze and moonlight, he slowly stepped into this small world.
The moonlight was like water, pouring down on his tall figure.
I have to say that Pei Mochen, this elegant young man from the royal family, is actually a handsome man.
He possesses the innate arrogance and unruliness of the royal family, but is also elegant and aloof because of his extensive reading of poetry and books.
After being reborn, he put all his edge and hostility outwardly, but every time he faced Mu Wanyan, he was so gentle that it seemed as if water could drip out of her.
Pei Mochen would never be willing to be serious with the woman he loved again in his life.
"Yan Yan, what... are you doing?" Before he could finish his words, Pei Mochen was stunned by the scene in front of him.
Mu Wanyan was seen lying on the bed with her back bare, although Xiang Qin hurriedly covered her with a silk quilt.
But the corner that slipped off inadvertently was like the most exquisite painting, revealing the delicacy and radiance of her skin.
Dazzling whiteness, eye-catching curves... Especially when the quilt slipped slightly, revealing Mu Wanyan's beautiful neck and half of her shoulders, it was even more breathtakingly beautiful.
"Hu——" Almost in an instant, Pei Mochen's eyes darkened.
