MTL - The Fugitive White Moonlight of a Powerful Minister-Chapter 196 Little brother, when is your birthday?

  Wen Ning: "..."

   What does it mean to sleep? I gave her to sleep?

   Didn't he sleep with her?

  Just...is she comfortable?

  Wen Ning blinked, choked by Pei You and forgot what she was going to say just now.

   "One year, three hundred and sixty-five days and nights, four thousand three hundred and eighty hours." Pei You stared at her, "Wen Ning, you are really willing."

  Wen Ning blinked again: "I..."

   "What do you want to do to me this year?" Pei You squinted at her, "Widow for you?"

  Wen Ning: "..."

  He said it himself...

   "Just... just think I went out to fight a war?"

   In terms of sex, how many family members of generals, even family members of civil servants, there are many husbands who go to Beijing to rush for the exam, and their wives stay at home for a year or two.

  Wen Ning tugged at Pei You's sleeve: "Don't you... claim to be my real wife..."

  Pei You laughed angrily: "Wen Ning, this is not the time for joking."

   "You were the one who joked first..." Wen Ning whispered.

   It was rare for Pei You to be speechless for a while.

  Wen Ning tugged at his sleeve again: "Pei You, I just want to go out and have a look."

  Pei You didn't give in: "I want to go out and have a look, there are plenty of opportunities, and I will take you with me whenever I have a business trip in the future."

   "That's different."

   "What's different?"

  Everywhere is different.

  But she didn't know how to explain to Pei You the original intention of her idea.

   After all, normal women are married and follow their husbands, and they circle around their husbands. It was hard for the two of them to confirm each other's intentions, and at the moment when they were tender and sweet, she wanted to run outside.

   "Pei You, just this year, you should satisfy my curiosity, okay?"

"not good."

   Both of them sat up from the bed.

  The moonlight was dim, and it was barely possible to see the other party's expression clearly.

  Pei You raised his chin slightly, with a stern face. Even if Wen Ning was sitting, she was half a body shorter than him, and her water-colored eyes reflected the faint moonlight.

  As soon as he uttered these two words, Wen Ning frowned slightly and lowered his eyelids.

  Perhaps because he realized that his tone was too cold, Pei You slowed down his tone: "Wen Ning, we agreed to put on lanterns together every New Year's Eve."

   "Then... ten months?" Wen Ning raised her eyes, "I will return to Beijing before New Year's Eve."

  Pei You turned his face away.

   "Husband..." Wen Ning shook his sleeve again.

  Pei You turned his face away coldly, and pulled the sleeve out of her hand.

  Wen Ning felt a little sad: "I just...discuss with you."

   "There is no need to discuss." Pei You looked back at Wen Ning, his eyes were cold and cold, "I can't agree to this matter."

  Lie down with arms crossed, back to Wen Ning.

  Wen Ning sat for a while, but had no choice but to lie down, also turning her back to Pei You.

   This was probably the first quarrel between the two after Lingnan settled their relationship.

  Wen Ning knew he would not agree.

  After the incident in the Fourth Prince's Mansion, there were many hidden guards around her, and they followed wherever she went, never leaving her.

  In the past, she would definitely have a fight with him.

   Thinking of how Linglan said about the movement on Chang'an Street on the day she disappeared, and how panicked Pei You was during the three days when she was unconscious, she still acquiesced.

  After that incident, he also clings to her more and more.

  In the past, "carrying her everywhere" was probably just a talk, but after that time, he was probably really thinking about how to put it into practice.

   "Pei You." Wen Ning whispered while clutching the pillowcase, "I'm just sharing my thoughts with you, since you disagree, then forget it."

   In the end, she was reluctant to part with Pei You.

  Reluctant to give up on him, also reluctant to let him be sad.

  Maybe the timing is wrong.

  Recently, the hidden guards have withdrawn a few, but it’s not the same as before, there are only sixteen ones; counting, the two of them have just passed their two-month Anniversary, and it’s time for him to taste the essence.

  She shouldn't have said these things to him tonight in a whim.

  It was a little quiet in the room.

  Moonlight spilled in, gently like tulle.

  Pei You was naturally sleepless, and when he raised his eyes, he saw the shadow of the tree reflected on the window lattice.

   Whirling and shaking, the spots of light are floating.

   After a while, he sighed, turned around and hugged the person behind him.

   "It's my fault that I spoke frivolously that day, and I didn't explain it to you well."

  He knew that Wen Ning was worried, what she liked and what she didn't like, he couldn't be more clear.

   So much so that after revealing her life experience with the eldest princess, her first thought was that if the little girl knew that he was the son of the middle palace, she might turn around and leave, so as not to provoke him again.

  But she kept it secret, and only asked for a hug from the beginning to the end, so he thought she was just not used to it for a while, and he never talked to her in detail.

   "I know you like excitement and the novelty of the outside world."

  Pei You still put his hands on Wen Ning's waist habitually, and said in a gentle voice, "I'll open a path for you after we get to the East Palace."

   "At that time, I will create a fake identity for your men's clothing, so that others will think that you are just a son who looks somewhat similar to the princess, and you can still enter and exit Chang'an Avenue."

  Wen Ning was taken aback for a moment, she didn't expect Pei You to still make such a plan.

"Winehouses and pharmacies, or if you want to do other business with Duan Rushuang, it's not impossible." Pei You pulled her into his arms, "It's just that you don't need the identity of 'Wen Ning', and you don't do business for Fame and fortune?"

   Naturally not for fame and fortune.

   She just loves the process.

  Seeing that my efforts are rewarded, I have been exposed to many new things that I have never seen before, so that I have other pursuits in my life besides the backyard.

"I've also thought about it these days. I don't have to go to the East Palace." Pei You rested his chin on the top of her hair and continued, "But the court has been in chaos for more than half a year, and it needs a prince who can make the courtiers feel at ease. With a prince like this It is indeed more convenient for me to do a lot of things with my multi-level identity.”

  He shouldn't have said anything about becoming a prince just to see her from time to time. It seemed frivolous and untrustworthy, but it made her feel even more insecure.

   "Your Majesty is still in good health for the time being. After a few years, Chu Ye will grow up a little bit. If he can be promising, I will give him the position of Crown Prince. You and I will be happy."

   "If you can't evade..." Pei You turned Wen Ning's body, her black eyes fixed on her, "Wen Ning, no matter what, I won't let you be wronged."

  Wen Ning's nose was inexplicably sour.

   "In this way, you may feel more at ease?" Pei You caressed her slightly frowning eyebrows.

   "Or, I'll give you another letter from He Li?" His eyes flashed faintly, "If you can't do it, will you divorce me?"

Ah.

   Come to fool her again.

  The last time I tore and left the book was in this room!

   Besides, I have never seen any princess who can divorce the prince.

  But ah...

  Wen Ning raised her head and hugged the person in front of her.

   This is the girl youyou that she loves and "hates" at the same time.

-

  The days went smoothly again.

   After clarifying the thoughts in her mind, Wen Ning was not so entangled.

  As Duan Rushuang said, looking at it from another perspective, no matter which choice you choose, you will be able to achieve success in the end. It depends on how you think and how you do it.

  Why draw the ground as a prison and circle yourself to death.

  She began to wear men's clothing and Duan Rushuang to go out and out of Chang'an Street again.

   They didn't go to the wine shop or medicine shop much, but the two of them opened the Luoxiang powder shop together.

   I have to say that opening a wine shop and a drug store are actually utilitarian, and this incense powder shop is really what my daughter's family likes. Wen Ning was immersed in it, and felt that it was much more interesting than the wine shop and pharmacy.

  Pei Youzhen made a false identity for her, surnamed Wen and given name Pei.

   "Why is it called 'Pei'?" Wen Ning protested, a fake identity is still inseparable from his "Pei"?

   "Why don't you get a fake identity for 'Youyou Girl' too?" she suggested.

  Pei You twitched the corners of his lips: "Then why don't you make a fake marriage letter for these two fake identities?"

   For some reason, Wen Ning thought it was so funny, she shook her shoulders and laughed for a long time.

  In early February, there were indeed no rumors about the "folk prince", but there was news from the palace that Princess Showa was about to marry a foreigner.

   It wasn't a famous young man in Beijing, nor a powerful family, but went to northern Xinjiang to make a marriage.

   "Princess Zhaohe's original Buddhist scriptures, what was the intention?" Wen Ning still couldn't figure it out. It must be her intention to meet the eldest princess and Pei Guogong in Chaoyang Palace, but why did she specially give her the Buddhist scriptures?

  Pei You was taking off her clothes: "Show me your favor."

   "Show good? Show good to you?" Wen Ning was still puzzled.

  How does a Buddhist scripture show favor?

  Placing this matter on someone else, knowing his own life experience through the handwriting on the Buddhist scriptures, he is naturally overjoyed and grateful.

  But it happened to Pei You, he already knew the cause and effect, and he didn't intend to take the initiative to recognize relatives, so this "show of favor" seemed superfluous.

   But Pei You obviously didn't intend to explain this to Wen Ning at this time, and played with the girls under him to his heart's content.

   "What about the leader she married?" Wen Ning asked again, "I heard that the tribes in northern Xinjiang are all barbaric and cruel. She grew up in gold and jade, would she..."

   "You do worry about others." Pei You bit her dissatisfied, "I have never seen you take me so seriously."

   "Why didn't I put you in my heart?" Wen Ning protested, never did he do what he wanted?

   "You haven't answered me yet, what about the leader Princess Showa married?"

  She always felt guilty.

  For those words I said in front of Princess Showa, and for the pot of peach blossom wine that Princess Showa bought at Fushengzui.

   "Your Majesty is ashamed of her, why doesn't he take her marriage to heart?" Pei You removed the last obstacle between the two.

  Wen Ning took a deep breath and kicked him: "Pursuing prostitution in the daytime! You...you don't know how to be ashamed!"

  Today is the tenth day of February, the imperial court rests, and she rests on the couch in the morning, thinking that he is just taking advantage of it.

   "Doing things between husband and wife is also called 'shame', so everyone in the world should have the word 'shame' engraved on their foreheads." After speaking, he started to move.

  Wen Ning's eyes were suddenly clouded, and he didn't want to say anything else to him.

  Pei You smiled lowly and kissed her: "Madam's body is really good."

  In the middle and late February, Wen Ning and Duan Rushuang's fragrance powder shop opened.

   It became popular all over Chang'an Avenue on the first day, and the shops were filled with all kinds of girls and wives.

   On the second day, Wen Ning specially dressed exquisitely, and drove the carriage of the Duke's mansion to the door of the shop, and bought a lot of face powder in full view.

  If you don’t support your own shop, who will support it?

   After a while, folk rumors will become "the princess also uses the powder from this store".

  On February 26th, Wen Ning didn't go out.

  She always felt that today was a special day, but she never thought of how special it was.

Until lunch time, Linglan was beside her and said: "Girl, Chang'an Street is so lively today. Princess Zhaohe will get married in a few days, and today is her last birthday in Beijing. Her cailuan went to Ci'en Temple. People are watching the car on the street."

  Wen Ning suddenly realized.

   Princess Showa's birthday is actually... Pei You's birthday!

  She remembered that Pei You was only on her birthday.

  She asked him when she was young, when he said he didn't have a birthday, she thought it was very strange.

   Actually, it was because, as a child whose biological parents were unknown, he had no idea when his birthday was.

   In this way, Pei You has grown up to such a big age that he has not yet passed his birthday.

  Recalling the last time he said "I have never seen you take me so seriously", Wen Ning immediately called out Shiliu.

   "Go to the Ministry of Industry and pass a message that your young master will come back earlier today."

  Sixteen still has lingering fears about the last time Wen Ning sent a message to ask Pei You to come back earlier.

  That time, he just waited an extra stick of incense in order to personally pass the words to the young master's ears, so he let Na Yingyao take advantage of the loophole.

   After that, the two had a big fight.

   "Go, go." Shiliu is stupid, and can't hide his emotions. Wen Ning knew what he was thinking when he hesitated, "I will definitely not quarrel with your son this time!"

   After driving away Shiliu, Wen Ning and Linglan arranged the yard and house together.

   What a coincidence, it is the season of roses blooming again.

   It's just that most of the roses in the Duke's mansion are in Pei Guogong's yard, and picking them is not as convenient as that in Wen's mansion.

  Wen Ning sent Linglan to pick roses, and embroidered the sachet that was about to be completed in the house.

  She seems to really...do not take Pei You seriously enough.

   It was only in front of my eyes that I remembered that today is Pei You's birthday, so I had to reluctantly use this sachet as a birthday present.

   Fortunately, she embroidered this sachet with much more care than last year's one, so she can still get it out.

   After collecting the last few stitches of the sachet, she changed into her clothes and went to Chang'an Avenue.

  Pei You still seems to like the candy in the sachet. Last time she took a look at it, it was empty with some candies stuffed inside, and there were not many candies left.

  She will find some unique candies and put them in new sachets.

  The things in the capital are not as exquisite and small as those in the south of the Yangtze River. After searching for half a street, I finally found something I was barely satisfied with. Wen Ning hurried home again.

   It's my birthday, why don't I have a bowl of longevity noodles?

  She hasn't made pasta yet.

   But Linglan can teach it!

  Pei You received Shiliu's news, and actually already guessed what Wen Ning wanted to do.

  Birthdate or something, he doesn't care. But the little girl is willing to spend her time trying to please him, so he is still useful.

  Because of this, before he was on duty, someone sent word to the palace that he would not go to Qinzheng Hall today.

   After waiting for the value, let Gu Fei return home directly.

  At the end of February, the weather has turned warm.

  Wen Ning made some arrangements in the room, but was not satisfied, so she changed the place of dinner to be outdoors.

   In the courtyard, there are flower trees that she has planted since she married into the Duke's mansion. This season is the time when the flowers are blooming.

  She hung a lantern in the courtyard, the light was neither bright nor dark, just right. I also hung some curtains in the gazebo. When the wind blows up at night, it must be very beautiful against the lights.

   As for longevity noodles...

  Wen Ning checked again whether there were traces of flour on her body.

   It's... horrible.

  She never thought it would be so difficult to make a bowl of noodles!

   Fortunately, she reined in the precipice and found her way back, it was just a bowl of noodles...

  Compared with noodles, Pei You should be more enthusiastic about...eating her? cough.

  After checking the flour, she took another look at her skirt.

  She deliberately dug out the clothes she bought in Jiangnan last year, and put on a thin one. The makeup and hair bun are also Jiangnan characteristics.

good-looking.

  So when Pei You came back, he saw that in the courtyard of Qinghui Hall, the shadows of lights were floating, the tulle was flowing, and the fragrance of flowers was overwhelming.

  It is full of romance that girls love.

   A gust of wind blew up, lifting the veil beside the pavilion, revealing the girl sitting around the table.

  Pei You squinted.

   There is one thing he likes.

   "Go down." He waved his hand towards the people behind him.

  Gu Fei, who was about to enter the courtyard, paused, what's wrong?

  Why can’t you enter the yard?

   He stretched his head to see, but was pushed out with a slap on his forehead.

   "Close the door and wait outside."

  Gu Fei made a "ding" in his head, and suddenly understood!

   Shut the yard door in a hurry.

  Wen Ning had already sent everyone else back to the back room, and she was the only one left in the yard.

  When she heard Pei You's footsteps, she was thinking, this situation should be accompanied by music.

  It's a pity that she is ignorant, and her piano skills are really not good enough.

  But when she heard the footsteps, she was thankful for the silence at this time, and told her to discover his return immediately.

   "You're back!" Wen Ning turned her head happily.

  Pei You hasn't changed her official uniform yet, but she doesn't see the official authority, her face is gentle and gentle, with a rare smile on her face.

   "Today we will have dinner outside." Wen Ning went to pull the man's arm, "You sit here!"

  Press the person to sit on the stone chair.

  The stone table is already full of vegetables, plus a bowl of longevity noodles and a pot of warm wine.

  Wen Ning took the lead in filling the wine cups of both of them, and toasted with a smile: "Master Pei, happy birthday."

  Pei You's hand holding the cup paused: "Master Pei?"

  Wen Ning: "Pei Shizi?"

  Pei You's black eyes looked at Wen Ning meaningfully.

   All right, all right, she knows.

   "Husband, happy birthday." Wen Ning tilted her head and brought the wine glass to his eyes.

  Pei You raised her eyebrows lightly, then raised her glass, clinking glasses with her lightly.

   "This is for you!" Wen Ning took out the prepared sachet.

  Pei You has seen this sachet before, squinting: "That's it?"

   I'm afraid it wasn't a temporary idea today.

but…

  He took a look at the girl in front of him: "And this one, it's not bad."

  Wen Ning couldn't taste the meaning in his eyes, just after drinking another glass of wine, her face turned slightly red.

   gave him a sharp look: "Hurry up and eat, the food should be cold."

  Pei You raised his chopsticks: "It should be faster."

  Wen Ning unexpectedly... understood his voice again, and couldn't help kicking him under the table.

  The official uniform is still on, can you be more serious!

   With a smile on the corner of Pei You's lips, he raised his chopsticks to eat.

   "The incense powder store opened in the past few days, is it going well?"

   Finally more serious.

Wen Ning was happy when talking about the incense powder shop, and replied: "Sister Rushuang came out, and it went very well! I am afraid that half of the noble ladies in Beijing have come to visit our small shop. It will not take long for us to be able to reunite with Fu Sheng." Drunk, famous all over the world!"

  Pei You glanced at the joy on her face, and the smile in her eyes grew stronger.

   "I heard you said a few days ago that you want to go to Tianjin Wei to open a branch of Fushengzui. Are you ready?"

  Wen Ning poured wine for Pei You again: "Recently, I have been focusing on the incense powder shop. There is really not enough manpower, so Tianjin Wei will put it on hold for now."

   "Insufficient manpower? You might as well ask Tu Bai to pick some capable people from the dark guard camp." Pei Youdao, "The dark guard camp is full of talents, and there is no shortage of smart people who can do business."

   too!

  Why didn't she think of this one?

  Those hidden guards are so expensive, they must be worth their money!

   "Try this!" Wen Ning picked up the only dish in which she participated a little, "Linglan's specialty dish! I peeled the asparagus by myself!"

  Pei You raised his eyebrows: "Oh, madam is really amazing."

  Wen Ning: "..."

   That's all, don't care about his birthday today.

   "I heard that Princess Showa went to the Temple of Mercy to pray for blessings today." Wen Ning turned to ask, "On March 18th, how will the imperial court explain Princess Showa's life experience?"

  Pei You's eyes darkened: "Fade down, no special explanation."

  Wen Ning stared wide-eyed, can it still be like this?

   "At that time, not many people will focus on a married princess." Pei You also gave Wen Ning some food, "Even if there is, after a few days of discussion, there will be no more."

Too.

  At that time, what the people will pay attention to will only be the eldest son of the Duke's Mansion, who has transformed into the eldest son of the middle palace.

   You can almost imagine how lively Chang'an Street will be at that time.

   "Hey, wait! Don't give it all to me!" Wen Ning pushed Pei You's hand back.

  There are a lot of dishes today, but after all, there are only two people serving, and the portion of each serving has been reduced.

   It was probably because she picked up lotus root slices two more times, and Pei You dropped the chopsticks and was about to give her the rest.

  Wen Ning "returned" the lotus root slices: "First guess why I asked Linglan to cook this dish?"

  Pei You looked at her sideways: "Isn't it because you can't do it?"

  Wen Ning: "..."

   It looks like you have never had a birthday party!

   "Lotus root slices mean 'the road is smooth'." Wen Ning gave him a piece, "I wish you a smooth journey in the new year!"

   "And this!" Wen Ning raised her chopsticks and pointed to a plate of bean sprouts on the table, "They were carefully selected one by one! Guess why?"

  Pei You smiled: "You say."

   "Pick out the ones that look like you wish." Wen Ning held a chopstick for him, "I wish you all the best in the new year!"

   Scooped up another spoonful of tofu: "This one is relatively simple."

  Put it in his bowl: "I wish you a happy new year!"

   Not to mention, although Wen Ning did not cook this table of dishes, she did put a lot of effort into it.

   Almost every dish can tell why.

   She became interested, and continued to pick up dishes, and each dish was a congratulatory speech.

  Pei You had never celebrated her birthday so vigorously.

   In the first year in the Wang family, Mrs. Wang tried to regard the day he went to the Wang family as his birthday. Although he was only five years old, he was precocious and had already had his own ideas at that time, so he rejected them alienatedly.

  After that, Mrs. Wang and Wang Fu tacitly did not mention this matter.

  Back to the Duke's Mansion, the Eldest Princess probably could recognize her as her son, but she couldn't assign Pei Zhan's birthday to him, nor did she make any special arrangements for her birthday.

  Looking at the smiling face of the little girl under the shadow of the lamp, and listening to her crisp words, he felt that such a lively event every year was quite exciting.

   "The last is this bowl of longevity noodles!" Seeing her picking up a dish, Pei You lowered her head and ate one, very satisfied, "I don't need to say what the meaning of longevity noodles is, do you? Eat it!"

  Wen Ning pushed the longevity noodles to Pei You, looking at him expectantly.

  Pei You glanced at the shallots and poached eggs on the longevity noodles, and squinted at Wen Ning: "You didn't make it?"

  Wen Ning snorted softly: "No, no! Made by Linglan, it tastes good!"

  Pei You lowered his eyelids, hiding the smile in his eyes, and raised his chopsticks to pick noodles.

   "Do you think this is an egg or a duck egg?" Wen Ning asked mysteriously.

  I have asked this question, so naturally it will not be a common egg.

  Pei You also replied: "Duck eggs."

  Wen Ning took a deep breath: "How do you know! Do you know what this duck egg means?"

  Pei You looked at the duck egg, and a long memory suddenly came to mind: "Pressing the waves means riding the wind and breaking the waves?"

  Wen Ning couldn't believe it: "You even know this! Choose again and see what else is below!"

   Pei You smiled and opened the bottom of the bowl, and there was a poached egg inside.

   Subconsciously, he frowned.

"Little brother, when is your birthday? On your birthday, I will treat you to a bowl of longevity noodles with two poached eggs! My dad said, one duck egg rides the wind and waves, and one egg is round and round, and you will be happy in the future." !"

  Wen Ning just said with her eyebrows bent: "A duck egg rides the wind and waves, and an egg is round and round. I wish you a happy new year!"

  Pei You's smile froze at the corner of his lips, looking at Wen Ning's black eyes, the thick light gradually diluted.

   There is a wind blowing, and the air seems to be still for a moment.

  Wen Ning didn't realize it: "Hurry up and eat! I've been busy all afternoon for this bowl of noodles!"

   "Wen Ning." Pei You called her, "Duck egg, why does it mean riding the wind and breaking the waves?"

  Wen Ning had just drank two glasses of wine with him, and now he felt his voice suddenly softened a little: "Didn't you just say that? Pressing duck eggs on noodles, pressing waves, is riding the wind and waves."

  Pei You still didn't use noodles, but asked: "Is Yuezhang born in the coastal area?"

  Wen Ning was a little confused: "Daddy was not born in the coastal area, but his ancestral home is Chongdao, what's wrong?"

  Pei You didn't answer, but just looked at her for a moment.

  Under the half-bright candle, the girl's face is sometimes blurred and sometimes clear.

   Curved eyebrows, clear eyes, slightly raised nose, delicate lips.

  Nowhere is not familiar.

  A coolness slowly climbed up the back, and like last time, it climbed up the forehead inch by inch.

   "Wen Ning, say that sentence again."

   "Which sentence?" Wen Ning held her chin, "Oh, I know!"

  She smiled and pushed the longevity noodles closer to Pei You: "A duck egg rides the wind and waves, and an egg is reunited. Husband, I wish you a happy new year!"

  Pei You's eyebrows twitched suddenly.

   "Wen Ning." He put down his chopsticks and stood up slowly.

  Wen Ning finally sensed something was wrong, restrained her smile, and looked up at Pei You.

  Under the warm yellow candle, his complexion was as white as jade, and in the blink of an eye, his dark eyes were covered with a layer of crimson red.
