Pei Jianwen saw the woman coming out from afar, and the expression on his face suddenly became a little subtle.

He has never been a person who cares about appearance, but seeing that Eleventh Sister-in-law really has a good look in her eyes.

The expression on Pei Jianwen's face gradually became serious.

"Eleventh sister-in-law." Pei Jianwen stood up and bowed to Lin Tingwan, and he did a good job of pretending.

"Prince Wu."

After all, Lin Tingwan is now Pei Jianwen's sister-in-law. Although her official position is not as high as his, she is more senior than him.

Logically, there should be no need for such excessive courtesy between two people, but it was the first time they met, and somehow they felt indescribably unfamiliar.

Pei Jianwen nodded, "It's my fault that I didn't come back yesterday. I apologize to the emperor's sister-in-law."

As he spoke, Pei Jianwen reached into his sleeve and took out a jade pendant, wanting to hand it to Lin Tingwan, which was not in compliance with the rules.

Men and women should not touch each other. Even though Pei Jianwen is her husband's younger brother, he is still a man after all. Especially since Lin Tingwan was Pei Yanli's ex-wife, with this status, the relationship between the two of them is even more unclear.

Lin Tingwan's eyes immediately became deep. Pei Jianwen certainly understood this truth, but why did he act like this? Of course it was intentional.

Lin Tingwan turned around and gave Yuzhu a wink, and immediately understood what she meant. She stepped forward and took the jade pendant from Pei Jianwen's hand.

Respectfully, can't find any fault with it.

Lin Tingwan smiled and said, "Thank you, Prince Wu."

"You're too polite, sister-in-law. This is what I should do. I've had the best relationship with my eleventh brother since we were young. Now that he's getting married, I should have sent him some gifts. But it's a little early now, and I'm afraid he hasn't woken up yet."

Lin Tingwan nodded, "The prince drank too much yesterday and is resting now, but don't worry, Prince Wu, as soon as the prince wakes up, I will ask him to look for you."

Lin Tingwan didn't give Pei Jianwen any time to react. He turned around and said to Qingyu, "Why don't you send Prince Wu back quickly?"

Qingyu was indeed someone who followed Pei Jinan. He knew what it meant at a glance. He quickly walked to the side of Pei Jianwen and said, "Marquis Wu'an, please follow me."

Pei Jianwen suddenly looked at Lin Tingwan deeply and said, "Thank you, sister-in-law. I am sorry to bother you today. I will come to your house in person to apologize in the future."

Lin Tingwan's intention was clearly to drive the guest away, but if not for that, Pei Jianwen wouldn't know what to do.

Naturally, she believed Pei Jinan. The two of them were now in the same boat, sharing the joys and sorrows as a couple. No matter how good others were, they were just outsiders.

Pei Jianwen's tricks couldn't fool Lin Tingwan.

After the two said goodbye, Lin Tingwan hurriedly turned around and went to the main hall.

According to Dongling's rules, today is the day she returns home.

Although Pei Jinan was still resting, she should prepare early.

The servants all looked curiously at the Princess of Zhenbei, whom their master had just married yesterday.

Although they had never met, they had only heard her voice but not seen her, and for a long time no one was familiar with the Princess of Zhenbei.

Lin Tingwan stood in the house and felt a little strange. She always felt as if countless pairs of eyes were scanning her.

But there was not a trace of malice in that look, instead it was full of other meanings. After listening, I guessed why.

Lin Tingwan smiled faintly and said, "What are you all looking at?"

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone lowered their heads and pretended to be busy. People always do this when they are embarrassed.

"If you're curious, go ahead and take a look. It's no big deal."

Lin Tingwan's voice was extremely gentle. Everyone paused in their actions. As servants, they had never before had their master spoken to them like this.

Even the King of Zhenbei, who never treated his servants harshly, would not do so.

Everyone couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, seeing that the new Princess Zhenbei was gentle and easy to talk to, which was the best thing.

At this moment, Pei Jinan's voice came from behind, "Madam——"

The voice contained a strong hint of coquettishness, which stunned Lin Tingwan for a moment.

After she realized what was happening, she turned and looked at the servant beside her.

I saw that they all looked like they heard nothing and saw nothing.

Lin Tingwan glared at Pei Jinan and said, "My husband is up."

But the words were full of restraint.

The two stared at each other for a long time. After a long time, Pei Jinan was the first to give in. "I understand, Yangyang."

It doesn’t matter what the two of them yell at you behind your back.

Lin Tingwan knew that there were many spies from other people in the mansion.

She didn't want her boudoir joy to be known to everyone.

……

"This morning, in front of everyone, the King of Zhenbei softly called Miss Lin "Madam."

The voice just fell.

Pei Yanli began to struggle hard, trying to escape from this desperate situation. His face was full of anxiety and fear, and his breathing was short.

In the dungeon, the atmosphere was very depressing. Humidity filled the air, oppressing Pei Yanli's breathing.

The mottled marks left by the chains and locks on the wall made people feel nervous, as if the prisoners who had just left behind only a desperate wailing.

In such a place, it is so quiet that you can hear a pin drop. Apart from the man's screams, other sounds are like moss attached to the wall, sleeping in the dust of time.

"Shut up! Shut up! Let me out!" he roared at the top of his lungs!

The man looked around, trying to find a way out, every ray of hope ignited his heart.

But he touched it casually, and only felt the rough stone wall and the cold iron chain, as well as the tattered rope on the beam that someone had left behind. He struggled with all his strength, trying to get closer to those opportunities that made him look weak and powerless.

In the darkness of the dungeon, Pei Yanli's figure became more and more obvious, and his panting and heartbeat seemed to be venting his inner anxiety. However, he still did not give up, and tried again and again to escape from this prison of death.

"The Queen said that she will let you go when Miss Lin is no longer in your heart."

The eunuch's shrill voice sounded.

Pei Yanli was stunned. How could Lin Tingwan not be in his heart? He came back to this life just for Lin Tingwan.

"Call the Queen Mother—"

Pei Yanli simply didn't believe that the queen would be so decisive.

They were mother and son, how could they be so cruel to him? He didn't believe it! He didn't believe it!

It is clear that in the previous life, even until death, the relationship between mother and son was extremely harmonious and was praised by people all over the world.

The situation now must have been instigated by the villain.

If only he could see the Queen, if only he could see the Queen, everything would be solved.

Pei Yanli calmed himself down, but who would have thought that the eunuch's action in the next second would completely shatter his fantasy.
