Buddhist temple? Dead people?

Pei Chun's heart beat faster as he heard this, and he suddenly remembered the smell of the dancer.

It seems that the mother and son have similar plans as her...

The voices of the two gradually faded away. Pei Chun looked up at the sky, which was already showing some of the quietness that belonged to the night.

After the others walked away, he strolled slowly towards the Buddhist temple.

---------------

Inside the palace.

"Jiashan, where is Chun'er? The party has already started, why is she still nowhere to be seen?"

The Queen Mother hadn't seen Pei Chun for a long time, and looked at her daughter below with some curiosity.

Now that the banquet has begun, the wives and daughters of many ministers have basically gathered, but Pei Chun is nowhere to be seen.

No wonder the Queen Mother asked this question.

The princess smiled and said, "Don't worry, mother. Chun'er has gone to find Mingjing. The girl just ate some snacks and found them delicious.

He was impatient and couldn't wait any longer, so he sent it to Ming Jing right away."

After thinking it over, the Queen Mother nodded. She had watched Pei Chun grow up, so she naturally knew her character.

It's not surprising that one would think of his elder brother first.

The queen over there said at the right moment: "Mother, look up, isn't Chun'er over there?"

She pointed to the corner of the hall with a gentle expression.

Everyone turned their heads following the Queen's gaze.

Then he saw Pei Chun standing next to a young eunuch, constantly saying something, forcing the young eunuch to lower his head and retreat repeatedly.

Finally, Pei Chun grabbed his sleeve. The anxious eunuch did not dare to resist. He just lowered his head and responded with something.

Pei Chun is made to look like a villain who forced a good girl into prostitution.

The Queen Mother was instantly amused by this scene and laughed a few times. She immediately called the nanny beside her and said, "Go and ask Chun'er why she is making things so difficult for the young eunuch."

The nanny also responded with a smile, bowed to the helpless princess, and went to the corner.

Many ladies of honor were envious and inevitably a little jealous when they saw that the Queen Mother did not reprimand Pei Chun for being so rude.

"Miss Pei Liu hasn't reached the age of marriage yet, right? She's still a child so lively, and I don't know which young master she will marry in the future."

This was a satire on Pei Chun's ignorance and running around at the palace banquet.

The Queen Mother's smile faded a little and she looked down at the person who was speaking below.

The wife of Duke Ping.

This person is the daughter of the late emperor's first wife, and is the eldest princess together with her daughter Jiashan.

When the Queen Mother entered the palace, the princess was already old and was married off and left the palace early.

The two of them didn't have much in common.

However, she had never liked the late queen, and naturally had no good feelings towards her daughter.

He just glanced at it indifferently and then looked away.

She spoke to the eldest princess below: "Jiashan, Chun'er's behavior now is exactly the same as yours before you got married."

The princess smiled and ignored the stiff-faced Lady of Duke Ping: "The Queen Mother is always making fun of us, mother and daughter."

The wife of Duke Ping was not stupid. She knew what was going on when she was ignored. She was secretly annoyed with herself for speaking too quickly, but she couldn't help feeling jealous.

Don't think she knows nothing.

She knew everything that the Queen Mother wanted to make Jiashan's daughter a princess!

They are both eldest princesses, but why is the one born in Jiashan so favored?

All her children are married! They haven't even been given the title of princess yet!

On the other side, Pei Chun and the little eunuch were brought to the Queen Mother by the nanny.

"Chun'er greets the Royal Grandmother." Pei Chun knelt on the ground obediently.

The Queen Mother smiled kindly, "Chun'er, tell the Imperial Grandmother what happened that made you interrogate this little eunuch like that? Look how irritated he was, he couldn't even raise his head for a long time."

Pei Chun pursed his lips, pretending to be aggrieved, and said to the Queen Mother: "Today, everyone can drink except me.

Grandmother, Chun'er's cold has healed."

After hearing this, the Queen Mother put on a serious expression and threatened Pei Chun with a fierce face: "So that's how it is, it was obviously the right thing for that eunuch not to pour you wine!

Don't think I don't know that you didn't even ask the imperial physician to prescribe medicine today!"

Then he called to the eunuchs beside her: "Keep an eye on this girl today. No one is allowed to give her wine!"

Pei Chun shrank his neck and his expression suddenly wrinkled.

Pretending to be depressed, he returned to his seat.

However, the empress dowager above felt much more relaxed upon seeing this, and couldn't help but reveal a kind smile.

This child is her granddaughter, so she is different from others in some way.

The princess couldn't help laughing as well.

In the hall, the court ladies who were watching this scene had mixed feelings in their minds, but they all pretended to be very friendly.

He followed suit to flatter the empress dowager, and from time to time he would say how good Pei Chun was.

When the banquet was halfway through, there was a sudden noise outside.

Pei Chun put down the snack in his hand and thought, here it comes.

The Queen Mother raised her head seriously: "What's going on? What are you arguing about?"

A young eunuch immediately came running in from a distance, bowed his head, approached the empress dowager in three or two steps, leaned over to her ear, and whispered something.

The ladies in the hall could not help but look at each other, and all their eyes were on the young eunuch.

Pei Chun took the time to glance at the queen and found that her complexion was very well maintained.

With just the right amount of doubt and appropriate curiosity.

It was as if he had no idea what was happening.

I really admire you.

Thinking of what had just happened in the Buddhist temple, Pei Chun felt a little flustered again, and his hands and feet felt cold.

Over there, the Queen Mother had already stood up. She turned around and glanced at the ladies attending the banquet in the palace, and said, "You all continue. The Queen will stay and preside over the situation."

Then, in an indistinguishable tone, he said, "Jiashan, bring Chun'er along."

This tone...

The eldest princess' heart skipped a beat and she responded immediately, looking at Pei Chun and waving gently.

Pei Chun stood up quickly and was held by the princess' hand obediently.

Following the Queen Mother in a hurry.

In front, out of the hall.

The Queen Mother's tone had completely turned cold, and she whispered to the eunuch, "Go to the outer hall and call Pei Zhong's wife!"

The princess held Pei Chun's hand tightly and found that her daughter's hands were cold.

His expression was somewhat worried, and he subconsciously wondered if something had happened...

Pei Chun secretly squeezed the princess's hand, signaling her not to worry.

On the way, I met the emperor by coincidence.

Behind him were Pei Qing, Pei Zhong, who had a snow-white cloth wrapped around his eyes and looked panicked, and several male members of the Pei family.

The Queen Mother and the Emperor walked in the same direction without speaking.

Since the Empress Dowager and the Emperor didn't speak, this group of people naturally didn't dare to speak either. They all dared not to make a sound, and followed behind the two most honorable people in the world like quails.

Pei Chun looked towards Pei Qing and found that his elder brother had a gloomy expression and kept his head down looking at the road.

She didn't dare to show any strange expression, for fear of being exposed, so she could only follow Pei Qing and react the same way.

half an hour.

Everyone finally arrived at the place.

The candlelight flickered in the Buddhist hall, and the dim light shone through the white window paper onto the snow outside.

Over there, the disheveled prince and the tearful Pei Lin were already pinned to the freezing snow.

Pei Chun secretly bit his lips to prevent his heart from jumping out of his throat.

His eyes fell on Pei Zhong, who had lowered his head and looked pleasing to the eye.

Sure enough, his expression changed drastically. He looked shocked and surprised, and even seemed to be a little panicked.

Following Pei Zhong's line of sight.

The prince and Pei Lin both had flushed faces at this time.

Especially Pei Lin, whose upper body was exposed and covered with various bruises, one could tell at a glance what she had been through.

The prince was the same at this time, with his chest bare and his underwear hanging loosely around his waist.

He looked dazed, and because he was the crown prince, the eunuchs around him did not dare to touch him like they did with Pei Lin.

They just stayed around him and temporarily covered him with clothes.

The emperor was already outside the door.

But the prince seemed not to be awake yet, and even if the eunuchs tried to stop him, he would crawl towards Pei Lin.
