Chapter 5 It's so intimate and an eyesore
Chapter 5 So intimate, yet so annoying
When Wei Yunzhu woke up, the sun was bright and it was getting late. She was a little dizzy and struggled to get up.
I was so groggy last night that I actually slept until now.
While Nian Shuang used a handkerchief to clean her hands, she complained: "What kind of Lord Chief Assistant! I thought he was an upright official before, but now it seems that he is simply heinous!"
Wei Yunzhu quickly covered her mouth: "Be careful what you say in other people's territory."
The princess would never be like this before. Nian Shuang suddenly wiped away tears: "Princess, why do you..."
Wei Yunzhu sighed. Pei Ji's remarks yesterday completely woke her up: "Nian Shuang, don't call me princess anymore. It's not good if people here hear it."
Nian Shuang nodded, but when she touched her princess, she panicked: "County... girl, you feel very hot, but are you sick?"
Wei Yunzhu really felt weak in her hands and feet, and her whole body was sore. Her eyelids were so heavy that she couldn't even think of responding.
When Pei Ji came back, Li Yi rushed to greet her: "Sir, the princess is sick. Please go and see her quickly!"
Pei Ji's eyes darkened: "Did you pass on the imperial doctor?"
Li Yi followed him forward hurriedly and said: "I passed it on and prescribed some prescriptions for replenishing qi and blood, but the princess refused to drink it!"
After a pause, he seemed to think about it for a moment, and then whispered: "Sir, the little princess is weak, you should be more considerate..."
Before he could finish speaking, he received a slash from the Chief Assistant.
Pei Ji hurried in and saw the girl on the couch. Her face was pale and her brows were furrowed.
Could it be that he was bullying her in her sleep?
There was a trace of annoyance on Pei Ji's eyebrows. He suddenly leaned down, took a handkerchief, and gently wiped the sweat from her forehead.
The girl seemed to be awakened by her, and gently grabbed his hand that was suspended in mid-air, and said in a thin and soft voice, "You're here."
The tone was a little coquettish and a little aggrieved, and Pei Ji felt that his heart was about to melt.
The next moment, the girl followed his sleeves and threw herself into his arms. She gently rubbed her forehead against his chin, tickling him like a kitten.
There was a loud sound and a crying voice: "Zhuzhu is really scared, don't leave..."
Pei Ji paused for a long time, then his stiff hand fell on the girl's hair, stroking it gently: "I won't leave, and I will never leave."
But the little head that had been rubbing against his arms raised a question: "Sister, your chin is so prickly?"
What did she think of herself?
Pei Ji raised his eyelids and threw the person into the couch.
Wei Yunzhu felt her head buzzing and she woke up completely. She couldn't go home, so how could her sister come?
"Is the Queen beautiful?"
The man said something strange, and Wei Yunzhu looked at him with eyes full of doubts.
After receiving no response for a long time, Pei Ji asked again: "Let me ask you, is the Queen beautiful?"
Wei Yunzhu nodded mechanically, not knowing why.
Pei Ji dropped the handkerchief, and the atmosphere became terrifyingly quiet.
If you think about it carefully, the queen is indeed beautiful, otherwise the princess would not praise her.
What she did to him just now must be done to the queen often. In the past, he saw the two sisters playing in the imperial garden. The queen hugged the princess's waist tightly. The princess was undefended and smiled happily.
It's so intimate, but also so annoying.
Suddenly, I wanted to ruin the queen's face.
Wei Yunzhu didn't understand what was wrong with him, so he called out cautiously: "Master Chief Assistant?"
Pei Ji came back to his senses, and his eyes wandered to the untouched medicine bowl aside: "Why don't you want to drink the medicine?"
Wei Yunzhu glanced at the medicine, frowned and shook his head: "Bitter."
Pei Ji picked up the medicine bowl and handed it to her, saying in a tone that did not allow for refutation, "Drink."
The girl shrank sharply towards the corner, looking extremely frightened.
Pei Ji sighed and said patiently: "Be good, take the medicine and you will be cured."
As he spoke, he started to feed her. Seeing this, Wei Yunzhu reached out angrily and subconsciously tried to block her, but she knocked over the medicine bowl.
She was shocked and saw that most of the bowl of medicine was sprinkled on Pei Ji, and she looked at him with fear.
Sure enough, Pei Ji's expression was gloomy, and the next moment, he picked up the remaining half of the bowl of medicine and drank it all in one gulp.
After putting the medicine bowl down heavily, he called out sharply: "Li Yi!"
Li Yi, who had been waiting outside, ran in: "Sir, what are your orders?"
"Bring me a bowl of new medicine."
When Pei Ji brought a bowl of new medicine and handed it to her, Wei Yunzhu's tears were already streaming down her face. In fact, she would rather be sick so that she could have an excuse to ask him not to torture her anymore.
Seeing that she still refused to drink, Pei Ji picked up the bowl and drank it himself.
But the next moment, he hooked his hand around the girl's waist and pressed his thin, cool lips against hers.
Unexpectedly, Wei Yunzhu froze.
Pei Ji slowly handed the bitter medicine to her without giving her a chance to refuse.
This feeling made Wei Yunzhu tremble subconsciously, and she couldn't help swallowing the bitterness, and her cheeks gradually became flushed.
After a long time, Pei Ji opened his eyes and looked carefully at the slightly trembling eyelashes, which were still filled with tears. It was so touching.
Wei Yunzhu closed her eyes, her whole body limp in Pei Ji's arms, gasping for air, her face red to the base of her ears.
Pei Ji's voice was hoarse, and the smile on his lips was evil: "This way it won't be bitter."
After saying that, he took another sip of the medicine, then supported the girl, held her little head in his palm, and wanted to come again.
Wei Yunzhu subconsciously shrank her neck, stretched out her strength and moved the medicine bowl in the man's hand in front of her, frowned and drank it all in one gulp.
The smile in Pei Ji's eyes grew stronger, and he gently placed his hand on the girl's head: "Only the obedient little girl will have candy."
As soon as he finished speaking, a piece of candied fruit was fed into Wei Yunzhu's mouth. It was very sweet.
But she still felt bitter in her heart. In the past, her sister would feed her candied fruits. A few days ago, she heard some gossip from the people.
It was said that the King of Yue went to Qiling Temple and tore down the memorial tablets of his parents. She knew a little bit about the connection between the King of Yue and Sister. The King of Yue probably always hated Sister, but when he demolished the tablets of his ancestors,
It would be too rebellious.
Ajie has always told herself that their parents are loyal people, so although she has no memory of her parents, she does admire them very much.
Thinking of this, her heart ached, her whole body started to feel cold, and her tears couldn't stop rolling down.
Those were her parents. If her father and mother-in-law were still alive, they would definitely not let others bully her like that.
Pei Ji looked at the trembling girl. She looked sad and was crying fiercely. He couldn't help but ask, "Is it difficult?"
Wei Yunzhu rested her chin on her knees and nodded helplessly.
Pei Ji thought she was cold, so he reached out and pulled her into his arms. He looked at the trembling branch in his arms and patted her back gently.
After crying enough, Wei Yunzhu raised her head with tears in her eyes: "Sir, my father and mother's memorial tablets are gone. Will they have to be lonely ghosts in the future?"
Pei Ji paused for a while: "Don't cry anymore. When you get better, go to Qiling Temple and set up a new tablet."
…
Although Wei Yunzhu was weak, he could not resist Pei Ji's money. He took care of her with ginseng and snow lotus, and the disease went away in three days.
After feeling refreshed, she wanted to go out for a walk.
Nian Shuang wrapped her in a thick fox fur cloak and helped her out: "Girl, it's cold outside. You have just recovered from a serious illness, so you can't stay outside for too long."
Seeing Wei Yunzhu smiling and nodding, the girl felt relieved.
The master and servant were resting in the pavilion, and an old woman walked towards them. She was carrying a tray. When she saw Wei Yunzhu, she placed a bowl of soup heavily on the stone table of the pavilion.
She raised her chin slightly and looked at Wei Yunzhu with disdain. No wonder she sent her niece to the chief minister's room a few days ago and was scolded for a long time. It turned out that there was a little goblin hiding here!
"Ginseng black chicken soup, drink it!"
This person's attitude was so bad that Nian Shuang couldn't help but step forward and said, "Why are you talking to our girl?"
Aunt Zhao sneered: "You're just treating someone else as an outsider, but do you really think of yourself as your master? Do you like to drink or not?"
After saying that, she left without looking back.
Nian Shuang was so angry that she looked at the bowl of cold chicken soup: "It's too much. I have to teach her a lesson!"
But Wei Yunzhu held her back: "Forget it, it's better to have one less thing to do than one more thing to do."
In Yong'an Lane, as she was about to go back, Nanny Zhao met the Gu family's sedan chair. This was not unusual, because Yong'an Lane was full of dignitaries, and the Gu family's old residence was also here.
Mrs. Gu naturally recognized Nanny Zhao, so she called her over. The reason was that the empty house belonging to the Chief Assistant had actually been guarded by guards these days.
"Mommy, why do you have time to come to Yong'an Lane today?"
Aunt Zhao has been in contact with these dignitaries a lot. She is very discerning and can always understand the thoughts of these people: "Looking back, madam, this old slave is delivering chicken soup to the girl in this house today. It was ordered by the Chief Assistant.
of."
After hearing this, Mrs. Gu raised her eyebrows: "Girl?"
He had always heard that Pei Ji was not a womanizer, so why did a woman suddenly show up now, so he deliberately asked: "I wonder whose young lady she is from?"
Aunt Zhao rolled her eyes and lowered her voice: "Hey, what lady? She is just a rough girl. I don't know what tricks she used to become the chief minister's concubine. What a trick!"
When Mrs. Gu heard that there was an outer room living in Yong'an Lane, her expression immediately changed. If any woman here was not a first-class imperial wife, Pei Ji didn't take others seriously.
Aunt Zhao is still fanning the flames here: "Master Chief Assistant is so confused. How can she live in an alley with ladies from aristocratic families like you? Isn't this a joke..."
Mrs. Gu didn't say anything on her face, but she was already feeling uncomfortable in her heart. Aunt Zhao looked at her and showed a successful smile.
