The face that Zhang Linglin was so familiar with in the evening still looked childish now.

The moment he saw her, the boy's mouth curled up into a smile, his facial lines were clear, there was a quiet light flashing in his eyes, his nose was high and straight, his lips were red and his teeth were white, and he was handsome and elegant.

"Yangyang, long time no see."

Lin Tingwan froze, his heart felt like it had fallen into an icy cave.

Pei Yanli! Why is this dog emperor here? Thinking of the things that happened in the past few days, Lin Tingwan was a little confused. Why did they appear in Liangzhou when they were supposed to be in Shangjing City?

Lin Tingwan suppressed the nausea in his heart and bowed, "Your Highness the Crown Prince."

Pei Yanli's gaze stayed on Lin Tingwan, with deep nostalgia in his eyes.

Lin Tingwan's heart skipped a beat, fearing that someone might have discovered something. Fortunately, Lin Mingqian spoke up at the right time and asked, "Why did Yangyang come to the barracks?"

Lin Yuehong was about to speak when he was interrupted by Lin Tingwan, "Today is New Year's Eve. I saw you left in a hurry yesterday, and I was afraid that you and your brother would be too busy today and forget about it."

Although Lin Yuehong was puzzled, he did not think much about it and said, "Dad, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and Grandmother are here. Since everything has been arranged, why don't you return home tonight? I will stay here and watch over you."

Lin Mingqian tilted his head and hesitated. Pei Yanli smiled and said, "In that case, I will trouble the General tonight."

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has spoken, who dares to object? Lin Tingwan followed the two back home in a daze.

Although the customs of Yongjin people are not very open, it is acceptable for unmarried couples to sit in the same carriage.

Pei Yanli tilted his head and looked at Lin Tingwan who was not far away. She looked even more beautiful in her red dress. She lowered her head and couldn't see the expression on her face. "How are you these days?"

Lin Tingwan looked up blankly and said, "Everything is fine with you lately.

"I heard that Mrs. Lin came from Shangjing?"

Lin Tingwan nodded, "My grandmother came to the mansion with my cousin yesterday evening."

"Did she bully you? If so, tell me and I will teach her a lesson for you."

They had played together before they were five years old, but that was ten years ago. Every year when she returned to Beijing, she would only stay for a few days. Although they were an engaged couple, they were just acquaintances.

In their previous life, the two gradually became familiar with each other after they got married. In fact, when they first got married, they had a harmonious time, but that was only before Fang Yule entered the door. Lin Tingwan couldn't understand why Pei Yanli suddenly asked such a question.

She stared at him blankly. At that moment, Lin Tingwan felt that the boy in front of her was very strange, as if she had never understood him.

"No, Your Highness, don't worry."

Seeing that Pei Yanli wanted to say something else, Lin Tingwan quickly interrupted him and asked, "Your Highness, have you been doing well these days?"

Pei Yanli was a man who attached great importance to rules and filial piety. In his previous life, even after he became emperor, he was still confined by worldly rules and regulations. Lin Tingwan really didn't want to hear any shocking words from him again.

Pei Yanli raised the corners of his lips slightly, "Life in the palace is the same as always. Although there are no waves, it is peaceful."

"That's great." Lin Tingwan responded very quickly. In fact, she didn't want to listen to Pei Yanli. Everything she had in her previous life was thanks to him!

But despite this, she still had to be servile and respectful when she saw him, which made Lin Tingwan feel disgusted!

She didn't want to say a word to him, so when Pei Yanli was about to say something, she said, "I am a little tired and will take a rest for a while. Your Highness, please do as you please." After saying that, Lin Tingwan leaned against the wall of the carriage and took a nap.

However, she never expected that Pei Yanli's gaze was always on her. That scorching gaze left her with no way to retreat. Lin Tingwan had to endure the discomfort and pretend that she felt nothing.

After a long time, the carriage stopped.

Lin Tingwan opened her eyes and saw Pei Yanli's hand half-stretched out, as if he was ready to wake her up. Seeing that she was awake, he smiled and said, "We're here."

Lin Tingwan nodded, and the two got off the carriage together. But when Pei Yanli and Yuzhu stretched out their hands at the same time, he put his hand on Yuzhu's hand without hesitation.

At this time, Lin Tangning was supporting Old Madam Lin and standing at the door. He looked at the carriage with a smile on his face. When he saw the prince coming, he knelt down and saluted, "I didn't know that Your Highness was coming. I'm sorry for not coming to greet you."

"Nothing, it's my fault for disturbing you so suddenly."

"Your Highness, what are you talking about? It is an honor for our Lin family that you are here." Old Mrs. Lin smiled, her eyes narrowed into slits.

Lin Tingwan was watching from the side and found it ridiculous. The dog didn't even look at the bone as Mrs. Lin did.

Her eyes turned and she saw Lin Tangning looking at Pei Yanli shyly. It turned out that Lin Tangning had fallen in love with him so early. It was her who was meddling in other people's business in her previous life.

Old Madam Lin hurriedly welcomed Pei Yanli in, but she didn't even glance at Lin Tingwan and Lin Mingqian, as if they weren't there. Instead, Pei Yanli turned to look at her and said softly, "Let's go in together."

When Pei Yanli wasn't paying attention, Mrs. Lin looked at her fiercely.

She asked why he was so kind in the carriage just now, saying that he would stand up for her, but it turned out that he was waiting here to make her the target of public criticism. Pei Yanli is worthy of his name, no matter how old he is, his heart is extremely dark!

"it is good."

Pei Yanli sat in the first seat. Old Madam Lin smiled and looked extremely kind. "Tang Ning, go and pour tea for His Highness."

"Yes." Lin Tangning quickly stood up and took the teapot from the maid's hand. Her cheeks were slightly red, and she slowly walked to Pei Yanli's side with gentle movements. However, Lin Tingwan felt that she was extremely shy.

Who would have thought that Pei Yanli would directly pick up the teacup and said, "No need." Then he turned to look at Lin Tingwan and said, "Yangyang, I heard that General Lin planted a yard of plum trees. Would you like to take me there for a look?"

Lin Tangning felt very aggrieved, blinking her big eyes at Old Madam Lin, who understood, "Yes, Yangyang, it's not a bad idea to show His Highness around. Tangning just came, so you can take her around to get familiar with the place."

"Okay." She agreed very readily, which surprised Mrs. Lin.

After the others left, Lin Mingqian looked at Old Lady Lin with dissatisfaction, "Mom, what are you doing?"

Old Madam Lin snorted coldly, "Lin Tingwan is not even a Crown Princess yet, but she's already so arrogant. If she becomes the Crown Princess in the future, I don't know how she'll bully me, an old lady!"

Lin Mingqian frowned, "Mom, no matter what, Yangyang is the future Crown Princess. Besides, Yangyang would not be like this. You are too prejudiced against her."

"I think you've been bewildered by this mother and daughter!" After saying that, she raised her head and said, "I think Tang Ning is the best."
