It turns out that I too have been robbed.

It was midsummer, and the heat in Fengcheng was unbearable. Even the royal family couldn't stand the heat, so they left Huazhang Palace to escape the summer heat.

Pei Ruzhou accompanied them on horseback like other children from the aristocratic family.

The wooden wheels slowly ran over the official road, leaving two rows of ruts.The bell hanging on the eaves of the phoenix car rang, and the people sitting in the car gently lifted the bright yellow gauze curtain on the car window at this moment.

"Your Highness, what are you looking at?"

"It's nothing." The man in the apricot-yellow gown squinted his eyes and smiled. As he spoke, he turned his gaze to the young man on horseback not far away.

He could see that the person was Pei Ruzhou.

The royal motorcade has arrived at the foot of Huiyan Mountain, and the trees on both sides of the official road are extremely dense.The sunlight sprinkled from the sky, was divided by the branches and leaves, and turned into patches of light and fell on the ground.

Pei Ruzhou's white warhorse from the Western Regions just walked back and forth between the forests on the spot of light.

The boy on horseback was wearing a silver-gray brocade round-neck gown, with long black hair tied into a high ponytail by a ribbon of the same color.With a slight movement, it was like moonlight pouring out from the nine heavens.

Merry wanton.

After a while, the horse was finally dragged back to the official path by Pei Ruzhou reluctantly.

"Xue Zhe, if we run again, we will leave the team." Pei Ruzhou patted the horse's back, and whispered into its ear, "Wait until the palace, and then go out for a walk, do you think it's okay?"

"Hey——" Xue Zhe seemed to have understood Pei Ruzhou's words, stood on the spot and stomped his feet, and even hummed twice in dissatisfaction.

But at the next moment, Pei Ruzhou felt two apples out of nowhere, and stuffed them into Xue Zhe's mouth by surprise.

"That `s a deal!"

Xuezhe:! ! !

Probably because of the cannibal's short mouth, the white war horse was stunned for a moment, then paved the ground with its front hooves, and finally walked back to the convoy reluctantly.

Seeing this, the people in the carriage couldn't help laughing.

How in the world would anyone bargain with a horse?

"Yi Su, don't look at it," a long, soft white hand stretched out from the side, and pulled the gauze curtain shut, "It's just a wild child."

Qi Yisu, the current crown prince's name.

Being able to call him this way shows that the relationship between the two is extremely close.

The person who spoke was named Ning Congling, and he was wearing a water-red toga at this time, his belt was undone at some point, exposing a large area of ​​greasy white skin on his chest.

Move your gaze up slightly, and you can still see the warmth on the neck.Ambiguous red marks.

On the surface, Ning Cong is the prince's counselor, but everyone knows behind the scenes that the so-called "counselor" is actually a man.Pet.

Prince Dayi is romantic by nature, and everyone in the court knows this.

However, being romantic is not a problem at all for a future ruler.

"Okay," Qi Yisu smiled and turned his gaze back, and gently rubbed Ning Congling's hand by the way, his movements were very warm."Is Cong Ling jealous?" After speaking, he lazily leaned on the soft couch and closed his eyes, as if he was planning to squint for a while.

"Where is it?" Ning Congling said no, but just now he did feel a sense of crisis in his heart.

This son of the Pei family is so different.

Qi Yisu, a prince under one person and above ten thousand people, is used to looking at ordinary things, and what he loves most is "unique".

Ning Congling suddenly stepped forward and gently kissed the corner of Qi Yisu's eyes.

"Don't make trouble." The prince frowned.

Seeing Qi Yisu's indifferent expression, Ning Congling couldn't help but gritted his teeth, and made it clear: "Although the old queen has been raising her in the deep palace and seeing no one, she really treats Pei Ruzhou as a The baby grandson treats it. If His Highness touches him, the Queen Mother will be angry."

Qi Yisu finally opened his eyes slowly, obviously still smiling like that, but for some reason, Ning Congling suddenly shivered after seeing him like this.

"En." The prince's tone was extremely cold.

"His Royal Highness, Your Highness," Ning Congling hurriedly turned his eyes aside, then picked a grape from the fruit plate, and brought it to Qi Yisu's lips, "I'm just, a little worried..."

Qi Yisu suddenly spoke and interrupted him with a smile.

"I know, is Cong Ling jealous?"

Hearing this familiar tone, Ning Congling finally breathed a sigh of relief.

He threw himself into Qi Yisu's arms, kissed her gently on the other's neck coquettishly, and stopped talking tactfully.

Qi Yisu's palm gently stroked Ning Congling's back, and penetrated between the hem of his clothes.

He slowly closed his eyes again, and at this moment, the figure riding the white war horse just now appeared in Qi Yisu's mind again.

……

Qi Yunyao hated riding in a carriage the most. This crowded and narrow space would give him the illusion of being short of breath.

Even though the prince's carriage can actually seat seven or eight people, there is still not a single servant around him.

But today is different.

Qi Yunyao, who always likes to sleep in the carriage, did not know whether No. 90 or 1 opened the curtains and secretly looked out.

Pei Ruzhou's "Xue Zhe" is a hard-earned horse from the Western Regions, which is a full head taller than ordinary horses.Ordinary people ride such a tall horse, they will hold the reins carefully.

But at this moment, Pei Ruzhou hung his hands in the air, lowered his head and didn't know what he was messing with.

Seeing him like this, Qi Yunyao couldn't help being startled, and by the time he realized it, he had already called out the other party's name.

"Pei Ruzhou!"

"Ok?"

Pei Ruzhou was stunned for a moment, then gently rubbed Xue Zhe's head, the next moment the white horse turned around and walked slowly to the side of the carriage.

It was only at this time that Qi Yunyao noticed that Pei Ruzhou was wearing a round collar robe today, and the silver-gray belt was tightly tied, completely outlining the boy's waist.

He was also holding a straw cricket in his hand, it seemed that he was busy with this just now.

Qi Yunyao hurriedly looked away.

"What's the matter, Your Highness?" Pei Ruzhou asked curiously.

"You..." Qi Yunyao hesitated for a moment, and finally said, blinking his almond eyes, "Get in the carriage and rest for a while, eat some fruit or something."

Why did the bear boy suddenly change his gender?Pei Ruzhou was a little puzzled.

But now it was almost noon, and the sun was getting hotter and hotter.It was okay when Qi Yunyao didn't talk, but now that he said it, Pei Ruzhou also felt a little hungry and sunburned.

Xuezhe is greedy for food, if I ride on its back and eat fruit, it will probably get angry again.

"Okay." Pei Ruzhou thought for a while, got off the horse very neatly, and handed Xuezhe to the guards behind.

He didn't see that at this moment, Qi Yunyao, who was sitting alone in the carriage, looked indifferent, with displeasure flashing through his eyes.

It wasn't until Pei Ruzhou boarded the carriage that Qi Yunyao changed his expression instantly.

"Come here, there are watermelons here, and they are still iced." Qi Yunyao pretended to be happy and enthusiastic.

"Okay, Your Highness."

Pei Ruzhou didn't think much, he directly sat on the couch opposite Qi Yunyao.

At this moment, Qi Yunyao's gaze suddenly fell on Pei Ruzhou's waist.

Just now Pei Ruzhou had been turning sideways towards Qi Yunyao, so he didn't see clearly until now that there was a moon-white sachet hanging on the other's waist...the sachet was embroidered with honeysuckle.

This sachet was very inconspicuous, and the embroiderer looked rough, completely unworthy of Pei Ruzhou's status, let alone the prince's eyes.

But Qi Yunyao's gaze was firmly stuck to the sachet.

Like, so similar.

"Is Your Highness looking at this sachet?" Pei Ruzhou noticed Qi Yunyao's gaze and couldn't help asking.

Qi Yunyao wanted to deny it, but after a moment of pause, he bit his lip and nodded slowly.

"Where did you buy this sachet?" His voice trembled slightly.

"Oh, this one, I didn't buy it."

Pei Ruzhou casually took off the sachet and put it on the small table in the carriage.

He remembered that when he was young, a maid in the family seemed to have committed some mistake and was punished to kneel in the small courtyard where his parents lived in the middle of the night.

The servant girl kept crying and kowtowed to General Pei. Her voice was so loud that she woke up herself who was already asleep.

He sneaked out of the room, stood at the door and looked into the courtyard.

"I don't want to go back, General, you kill me, kill me—"

"What nonsense!"

"Why are you so willful..."

Pei Ruzhou had never seen his father so angry.

Even the mother, who is the princess, couldn't help but patted the table.

At this moment, accompanied by a scream, Pei Ruzhou saw that the maid suddenly got up and slammed into the pillar on the side.She moved very quickly, obviously holding the heart of death.

And Pei Ruzhou, who was peeking at the door, was also taken aback.

Human life is at stake, Pei Ruzhou didn't care about being discovered by his parents, he had already started to practice martial arts, and he subconsciously pushed the empty flower stand beside him.After a few breaths, it finally caught that maid's footsteps...

Too much time has passed, and Pei Ruzhou can't remember what happened next.

He only roughly remembered that his parents quarreled for several days, and finally kept the maid by his side, and renamed her "Lu Ru".After another year or two, Lu Ru, who Pei Ruzhou remembered was beautiful and elegant, had gained weight for some reason, and his skin had become rough due to the wind and the sun.

Compared with before, it's like a different person.

It seems that Lu Ru once had a child of his own age, so he took extra care of himself.The sachet that Qi Yunyao asked was embroidered by her.

I don't know why Qi Yunyao is interested in this little thing.

After putting it on the table, Pei Ruzhou said casually, "This was embroidered by a maid beside my mother."

"This, is that so..."

Qi Yunyao couldn't help but clenched his fists, and after a while, he slowly picked up the things.

His smile froze on his face at some point.

Even Pei Ruzhou noticed Qi Yunyao's abnormality.

"What's the matter, Your Highness?" He couldn't help asking softly.

"It's nothing." Qi Yunyao finally smiled and put the things back on the table.

His fingers couldn't help trembling slightly.

so similar.

How can it be so like...

How could Pei Ruzhou's sachet be exactly the same as the relics left by the concubine mother?
