Chapter 197 Accidental Discovery
Simiaomiao bit her lower lip into her teeth, and she licked it with the tip of her tongue. Pei Qingshang's eyes darkened, and Simiaomiao shook his head unconsciously: "It doesn't hurt."

At this time, the slanting wind and drizzle fell quietly, hanging on Simiaomiao's eyelashes and hair like silver threads.

Pei Qingshang and her looked at each other for a moment in the wind and rain, but Simiaomiao couldn't understand the reason for the complex and flowing emotion in Pei Qingshang's eyes.

Just for a moment, Pei Qingshang looked away: "It's raining, Your Highness, let's go back."

"I can't go back now, I have just asked the coachman to go back to the palace, and he will come to pick him up in the evening." Simiao Miao refused to leave, so he lied to him.

Pei Qingshang's attitude was particularly indifferent: "Then His Highness will walk around the mansion at will, and go back in the evening. I have important matters to deal with, so I won't accompany you any longer."

He turned around and left with his bow and arrow in hand, Simiaomiao hurriedly shouted behind him: "Pei Qingshang, stop!"

She put up her skirt and chased him, with her arms spread out to prevent him from leaving.

"Why do you always hide from me? Is this the god of plague?!"

Pei Qingshang looked at her with deep eyes: "Your Highness came to the door this time, isn't it just to know what His Majesty wrote in the imperial decree to the minister?"

Simiao Miao's expression froze, she lowered her eyelashes: "It was originally..."

Pei Qingshang raised his lips and let out a sneer: "Since that's the case, Your Highness knows that I won't say anything, so what time are you wasting at the mansion? Go back, before it rains heavily."

After speaking, he bypassed Simiao Miao and wanted to leave.

"I came here to know the content of the imperial decree!" Simiaomiao stood behind him and shouted: "But after seeing you, I don't want to know anymore, Prime Minister Pei, I don't like being hidden by you, and I don't need to know the content of the imperial edict. Can you stop hiding from me in the future!"

Pei Qingshang's footsteps stopped suddenly, and his body froze in place.

Si Miaomiao felt that the feeling of congestion in her heart was much better after she said it. She stood in the rain and let out a sigh of relief: "Prime Minister Pei, don't always think too badly about me."

Pei Qingshang turned his head sideways, his eyes turned brilliantly: "Does Your Highness know what the consequences will be if you say this to the minister?"

Simiao Miao blinked, really puzzled: "What consequences can I have if I confide in my heart?"

Pei Qingshang didn't answer, but turned around and walked towards her.

Si Miaomiao looked up and saw Pei Qingshang standing still in front of her. He brushed away the rain-soaked hair sticking to her cheeks with his hands: "Your Highness, go back. I'm not avoiding you. I'll naturally tell His Highness everything after I've settled the Spring Hunting matter."

Simiao Miao's eyes flashed: "It's a deal?"

Pei Qingshang nodded: "It's a deal."

Simiaomiao was overjoyed, like a cunning kitten, she plucked the hibiscus flower from her temples and put it in Pei Qingshang's hands: "I didn't bring any good presents when I came to see you this time, so I'll give you a flower."

After speaking, she bounced away.She still didn't forget to look back at Pei Qingshang, and said with a giggle, "Don't forget to promise me!"

Pei Qingshang watched her pretty figure disappear into the courtyard, and he lowered his eyes to look at the big and delicate hibiscus in his hand, which was covered with raindrops.

Turning around and returning to the study, Pei Qingshang took out the imperial decree from the long box on the bookshelf.

His eyes were deep and dark, until Pei Qing lit the imperial decree with a candle, and when the flames sprang up and licked up the imperial decree, the fire in his eyes did not fade away.

In the next few days, Simiaomiao was really obedient and didn't bother Pei Qingshang again.

This day Yin Shen came to Fanghua Hall to see her and made a merciless request.

"Originally, I didn't want to disturb His Highness, but my younger sister Yueya has not eaten or drank recently, and kept shouting to go back to Jiangnan. I am worried, and it happens to be her birthday soon. I want to ask His Highness to accompany me to choose a gift for her."

Simiaomiao and Yin Yueya were at odds, and when they heard that she was going back to Jiangnan, they immediately agreed: "Then you can let her go home."

Yin Shen smiled wryly and shook his head: "If she goes back like this, I don't feel at ease on the way. Because I boasted to my parents before that I would bring the girl I like back home, but now...so I can't go back to Jiangnan with her."

After looking at Simiaomiao with hesitant gaze, he slowly lowered his head to block it.

Simiaomiao paused as he pinched the peach blossom cake.

She naturally knew who Yin Shen was referring to.

Thinking that Yin Shen had helped her before, and that he was still so humble, Simiaomiao readily agreed: "That's fine, the weather is fine today, so I will accompany you out for a walk."

Yin Shen was overjoyed, and thanked him a few times.

The two of them went to the market in a carriage. In late spring, there were more people and pedestrians than usual.

Yin Shen took Simiaomiao straight to the jade shop, saying that he wanted to pick a piece of high-quality jade for Yin Yueya.

Simiao Miao shook his head: "According to what I see, your sister has never seen anything good. Even if a piece of jade is given to her, it is just thrown into the warehouse and locked up."

Yin Shen nodded: "Your Highness is right, so what should I buy? My sister has no shortage of jewelry, and she doesn't like food, and silk and satin are even more commonplace."

Simiaomiao dragged his chin and pondered for a moment: "Shall we go to the blacksmith shop to pick out a dagger for her?"

Yin Shen was taken aback: "Yueya has an impulsive and reckless personality, if she sends another sharp weapon, I'm afraid she will hurt others."

They passed by a small stall together, and Simiao Miao saw the things on the stall out of the corner of his eye, and suddenly his eyes lit up.

"If you have it, give her a lantern."

Yin Shen looked at these ordinary lanterns and was a little puzzled.

"Back then, she had a dispute with Ben Gong, wasn't it because she fell in love with the same lantern? If Ben Gong remembers correctly, the lantern fell into Ben Gong's hands in the end. You can buy this to make up for her lack of childhood, it will definitely be fine."

Yin Shen was dubious: "Is it really possible?"

"Of course!" She took out a few taels of silver and handed it to the peddler, and picked out a lantern for a fairy to ascend the fairy palace.

Simiaomiao refused Yin Shen and wanted to return the money to her: "I will just pretend to be my apologetic for what happened back then."

Seeing that it was still early, Yin Shen said: "I heard that there is a chef from the south of the Yangtze River in Yingxianlou. I would like to invite His Highness to have a meal. I wonder if His Highness would do me a favor?"

Simiao Miao nodded casually, and the two of them walked along the street towards Yingxian Tower.

When they arrived at Yingxian Tower, Xiaoer led them up to the second floor, and Yin Shen suddenly stopped Simiaomiao's footsteps.

"His Royal Highness, wait!" Yin Shen's voice was a little nervous: "How about we eat at another restaurant? This place seems to be full of people."

The waiter in the shop smiled and said: "How come that, guest officer, we can set up ten more tables, please feel free to come inside."

Yin Shen stood in front of Simiaomiao: "Don't go, Your Highness, I don't think there is anything to eat."

The waiter in the shop is not happy anymore: "You can eat food indiscriminately, don't talk nonsense. Our new chef is a chef from Jiangnan! He used to be a cook in the family of Yin, the richest man in my dynasty. If you don't believe me, just go in and sit down to taste the taste. We won't charge you if it doesn't taste good!"

Yin Shen was in a hurry: "Your Highness, change to another house. I have grown up eating the food made by this cook, and it is definitely not good."

 Do you have a ticket?Have it!
