Love makes people happy, and love makes people suffer.

Love can also make people become different from themselves and lose themselves.

Pei Yu's pain was obvious. Su Fengyi didn't want him to suffer, and even less did she want to build her own happiness on his pain.

Pei Yu's tears fell in front of her eyes and also in her heart.

Su Fengyi stretched out her finger, leaned over and gently wiped away the tear from the corner of his eye, and said:

"Pei Zhaoming, don't be like this. I can't give you the mutual affection and single-minded love you want, and I don't want you to force yourself.

If you and I force ourselves to be together, making you sad, it will betray our current relationship and turn us into a pair of resentful lovers who hate each other.

You are the future head of the Pei family. You have a vast world under your control. You should broaden your horizons, find a girl who shares your soul and live happily ever after.

The relationship between men and women is not just about personal affairs. Even without personal affairs, you and I can still have business dealings, achieve mutual benefit, and share what we have.

Isn't it better that such a relationship can be stable and long-lasting?"

Pei Yu knew rationally that what the princess said made sense. If it was someone else indulging in an affair today, he would also use this logic to talk to him and persuade him.

But only when it happens to you, you will understand that the word "emotion" is never reasonable.

Pei Yu could tell that the eldest princess really wanted to draw a line between themselves and him, but she was willing to explain this to him, and it was also true that she still had sympathy for him in her heart.

Fortunately, His Highness is a soft-hearted person, and soft-hearted people cannot bear to see others suffer.

Pei Yu grabbed Su Fengyi's fingers that were touching his tears, put his face against her palm, and a tear fell on her fingers again.

Things have their priorities. The key now is not to compete with others. If he competes for this now, he will completely lose the opportunity to reconcile with her.

Now he should first get her consent and let her agree that he can stay with her, so that he will have the opportunity to take it step by step.

Otherwise, he wouldn't even be qualified to compete with others.

Things will be better if you take it slow. Pei Yu, take your time and don't be in a hurry.

Pei Yu looked up at Su Fengyi. His tears were real, and his plea was genuine. He begged:

"Okay, Your Highness, if you ask me to look for it, I will go look for it.

But before finding it, could Your Highness give me some time so that I can slowly let it go? "

Pei Yu pressed her hand to his chest again and continued:

"Your Highness, it really hurts here. I am almost dying of pain. Please give me some time and don't abandon me now, okay?

Pei does not seek mutual affection or single-minded devotion, but only a last fleeting romance. Your Highness, could you have mercy on me?"

Su Fengyi felt that she was also responsible for the current situation between her and Pei Yu.

The beginning of her relationship with him was that she acquiesced to Pei Yu's behavior in order to figure out what was happening to her.

Looking back on the time they spent together, he brought her nothing but happiness.

So now that the dust has settled, it is really unkind and unfair to him for her to get up and leave, leaving him alone to suffer.

Seeing Su Fengyi's expression, Pei Yu knew that she had softened her heart.

If you are soft-hearted, you will hesitate, and if you hesitate, you will have opportunities.

In the moment when Su Fengyi hesitated, before she could say a possible refusal, Pei Yu seized the opportunity, held her hand, put it to his lips, and gently touched it:

"Your Highness just said that you want to handle official business with Pei impartially and share what you have. Is there any official business that you want Pei to handle now?

What did your highness ask Pei just now? "

Pei Yu talked about business, and Su Fengyi's attention was drawn to it, and she returned to the previous topic:

"Your second uncle, my fourth uncle, I want their lives, what do you think?"

Pei Yu kissed her fingers again, observing her reaction, and replied:

"Pei had this in mind. My second uncle went to Pingliang to congratulate the King of Pingliang on his wedding these days.

Your Highness, what do you think they are planning?"

It’s only been half a year since Prince Pingliang divorced his last princess, and he’s already married another one?

When a man becomes heartless, he is really quick and decisive, even marriage is just a means to an end.

Su Fengyi smiled:

"This Prince of Pingliang, I haven't bothered him yet, but he wants to come to me on his own. Does he want to return to the capital?"

The princes were not allowed to enter the capital without being summoned, with one exception.

That is, if a prince married a princess, he would bring her back to the capital to worship his ancestors and enshrine her in the royal jade disc.

In this case, as long as the prince submitted a memorial, unless the emperor particularly disliked this person and would keep it in his pocket without approving it, under normal circumstances, the emperor would agree to the prince's request to bring his princess to the capital to worship his ancestors and offer the jade disc.

The Prince of Pingliang brought auspicious signs and beautiful women to the emperor. The emperor liked this fourth uncle very much and would not object to his coming to the capital.

Pei Yu held Su Fengyi's hand tightly, and was certain in his heart that the princess liked his touch, or was used to his touch.

Because they often cuddled together like this when they were together before, she didn't even notice that there was anything wrong when he kissed her finger just now.

When Pei Yu saw her today, he felt nervous, worried that she would reject him again. He was also sad, worried that she had someone else in her heart and would never give him another chance.

But now, he smiled from the bottom of his heart:

"Whether the Prince of Pingliang can enter the capital depends on Your Highness. Do you want to allow him to enter the capital or not?"

The emperor does not attend court and does not like to see court officials. Pei Yu is one of the few court officials who can see the emperor.

The memorial from Prince Pingliang had to reach the Emperor through the proper channels, either through the Cabinet or through the East Factory.

Pei Yu is the second in command of the cabinet. He handles so many memorials every day, so it is understandable that he occasionally misses one.

As for the East Factory, Qiao Gui used to do the Prince of Pingliang's bidding, but now Cui Shi is a petty-minded person who still bears a grudge against the Prince of Pingliang for his flattery of Qiao Gui in the past. Therefore, the Prince of Pingliang has never been able to get through to Cui Shi.

Another unconventional way is to go through the route of in-laws. Concubine Hui is in favor, so she can also get through the Wang family.

After all, marrying a princess is a family affair, and Concubine Hui's pillow talk is not considered as the harem interfering in government affairs.

The King of Pingliang wanted to come to the capital, and Su Fengyi also wanted to see his magical powers. It was better to have him in front of her than to have him far away and always doing things secretly.

Su Fengyi said to Pei Yu:

"If he wants to come, how can I let him come so easily? Let me see who he has and what methods they can use to help him.

If the King of Pingliang comes to you, ignore him, but if he goes to the Wang family, the Pei family should not interfere.

Also, in the next few days, the Wang family will submit a memorial to the emperor, asking him to reopen maritime trade and promote the grand event of tribute from all nations.

I hope the Pei family will agree to this matter and join us in this great undertaking. What do you think, Lord Pei?"

The Pei family and the Wang family are always at odds with each other. Su Fengyi said this to let Pei Yu deal with the Pei family's power.

Pei Yu agreed on the spot:

"Okay, since it is what your Highness wishes, Pei will do it immediately."

After Pei Yu left, in the evening, Dan Gui came to serve the meal and replied uncertainly:

"Your Highness, Lord Pei has moved back to Boyaxuan."

After listening to this, Su Fengyi paused for a while, and finally hummed, tacitly agreeing to Pei Yu's return.

At the same time, in Wangyue Pavilion, after hearing the news from Xiao Guo, Shen Quan, who was changing clothes after returning from the palace, asked:

"Who? Which Lord Pei? Prince Consort Pei?"
