The Road to Peach Blossoms

Dongfang Han's body stiffened for a moment. He blinked, pressed his mask subconsciously, and said in a conferring tone, "Brother, can you change your request? I, I'm ugly."

I couldn't doubt it: "You just said that you can do anything for this king, and now you are going to go back on your word?"

"...Okay, okay." Dongfang Han let go of my trouser leg, tilted his head and took off the mask.

what the hell?It's still pretty.

The side face in front of me has a fair complexion, perhaps because it has not seen the sun all year round, it is still slightly paler than normal people.Willow leaf curved eyebrows are deep black, and the center of the eyebrows hides sharpness, but the tail of the eyebrows can't hide the frustration; a pair of narrow and beautiful red phoenix eyes, the pupils are like emerald smudges, full of green, as if containing the spring forest sea, the sea of ​​stars; the bridge of the nose Straight and delicate, the corners of the lips are slightly raised, showing a coquettish and thin appearance, the lower jaw is slightly pointed, but also has a smooth curvature.

Why can't it be called ugly?If you look at it from a woman's point of view, if you are fascinated by this look, you will definitely not marry the king.I couldn't laugh or cry: "You obviously..."

At this time, Dongfang Han turned his head, and the other half of his face also came into my sight. I was stunned and swallowed the next words.how to say?The left half of the face is of course handsome and good-looking, but there is a red irregular pattern on the cheek, which is similar to a birthmark or something, which destroys the beauty of the whole face. It's commendable.

"Yue'er..." Seeing the stunned look in my eyes, he covered half of his face with the birthmark in panic, "Don't look... If you think you're ugly, we'll go to bed at night. I, I can cover my face." face..."

Me: "..." What is he talking about?Also, who is Yue'er?

I coughed, who is Yue'er, it's not convenient for me to ask for the time being, if it's really Dongfangchi's nickname, wouldn't I be revealing my truth.In order to comfort him, I pressed his shoulders, bent down, deliberately lowered my voice, stared into his green eyes, and said, "Dongfang Han, listen, you are not ugly. Although you have flaws, Biyu There are flaws, but flaws do not hide the beauty, and you are the same. In the eyes of this king, even though there are thousands of styles and all kinds of beauty, they are not as good as you."

After finishing the lines that made me feel cold, I breathed a sigh of relief, so... it should make him feel better, right?But, by the way, do the words of comfort to a woman I read in the storybook work when used to comfort a country's down-and-out prince?Does it work? !

Dongfang Han's eyes widened, the faint blue color was scattered into dots of starlight, crystal clear tears gathered in the eye sockets, and they were about to fall.What's more, in order to prevent me from running away, he grabbed my trouser legs again.

Me: "..." It's over, it's over.I didn't expect it to be so powerful. Didn't you see that people were humiliated by me and cried?Also take measures in advance so that I can't escape.

I calmed down and comforted myself, it's okay, anyway, he can't use his legs, and I'm tall and big, so he definitely can't beat me.

"Yue'er Yueer... Thank you! Yue, Eryue, Eryueer, Yueer, this is the first time someone has comforted me like this!"

To my surprise, Dongfang Han didn't cry because of my humiliation, but was moved to tears, crying and laughing, looking crazy.

"That..." I stretched out my hand helplessly, trying to free my trouser leg from his hand, but Dongfang Han's hand was so strong that I couldn't break free for a while. "Listen well, Dongfang Han. I, this king is your elder brother. To show kindness, you can call me elder brother, and I will also call you fifth younger brother. Don't call me Yue'er in the future. Even if it is Brother, it's not good either."

Dongfang Han looked up at me, as if he was looking at his only salvation, and when he heard the words, he nodded his head like crazy: "Yeah Yueer, whatever you say is what you say, oh no, it's big brother!"

I was satisfied, and said in a lecturing tone: "That's right. Also, try not to say anything about me in the future... um, cough, what you said is not good."

Dongfang Han: "Then I will say less."

Me: You mean, say less, but still say it?

I moved my legs again, trying to get out of his grip. "As for what you said just now, I have also seriously considered it. If the second brother really becomes the Dragon Emperor, it is indeed out of character and harmful to the world. Give me some time, let me go first, and let me go back and think about it." Think about it, the king is tired and wants to rest."

Ever since I was woken up by urination last night, my spirit has been tense, and I haven't rested until now. No matter how good the quality of this body is, I can't hold on anymore.

Dongfang Han: "Brother, since you are tired, you might as well stay and rest. You have lived here before, and the configuration of that house remains the same, and I have not let anyone touch it. Can you still rest there? And... As if he was ashamed to speak, he said awkwardly, "...I was really afraid of this kind of thunderstorm weather, so I hid under this wine cellar. Brother, can you accompany me?"

I thought about it and agreed.

"Then I'll sleep in my original room." I said.

So, I called a secret guard from Prince Ning's Mansion who was protecting me, and told him to go back to the mansion to report that I would stay with the fifth prince overnight, and everything else would remain as usual.

Tianyi's colleague took the order with a dull face, I looked away and fell asleep with my clothes on.I was in a daze on the bed, and vaguely felt that something was wrong, but I couldn't restrain my drowsiness, so I went to Zhou Gong.

The next day, at Chenshi, I yawned and lazily got up, and stretched freely. In the process of stretching, I unexpectedly found that there was resistance in my waist. I lifted the quilt and saw that Dongfang was lying on the bed. Han, Dongfang Han tightly wrapped his hands around my waist, seeing me looking at him speechlessly, he smiled: "Don't you want to sleep any longer? Brother~"

It doesn't look like he just woke up, how long has he been awake?Why did you get into my bed?

I pushed away his hand in disgust, put on my clothes and put on my belt with my head bowed.At this time, Chunwan's voice came from outside: "Your Highness Fifth, it's not good, the concubine Li is here, and the slaves can't stop her."

Dongfang Han was taken aback, and frowned: "What is she doing here?"

"Okay, you go down, Chunwan, the palace knows." He couldn't tell whether he was happy or disgusted, he touched the mask, put it on, and let Chunwan go down.

I didn't know what I was thinking at the time, I just thought that it was wrong for two men to share the same room and sleep in the same bed, and it would be even more shameful if a concubine saw it, so I subconsciously found a wardrobe and hid in it.Seeing me get into the closet quickly and close the door (with a little gap of course), Dongfang Han was stunned, staring at the closet I was in for a long time without saying a word.

After I entered this small and dark space, I regretted it too much. Besides, this body is tall and big, so I can only shrink back and forth, which is even more depressed, but Li Fei seems to have arrived with the maids and eunuchs.

I quietly opened the door of the cupboard a little more, and I saw that Concubine Li was wearing a fiery red palace dress, the neckline was embroidered with golden silk thread butterfly patterns, the skirt was embroidered with golden auspicious cloud patterns, embellished with precious stones, a pair of The sharp and charming red phoenix eyes are smiling, and the phoenix luan in the center of the Lingyun bun has a pearl in its mouth, and the tassels under the pearl hang down gently, reflecting the magnificence and charm.

Even if he is over forty, due to proper maintenance, there are only some inconspicuous smile lines around the corners of his eyes.Looking closely at his eyebrows and eyes, and then comparing Dongfang Han's eyebrows and eyes, we have to say that the Fifth Prince looks as much like his mother.

Concubine Li faced her son with a serious expression. "What's your attitude, you don't welcome me?"

"Of course not. The mother and concubine came to see the son, and the son was very happy." Dongfang Han smiled casually and said a wisecrack.

Li Fei said, "How have you been recently?"

Dongfang Han let out a sigh: "It's very good, don't bother mother and concubine."

Li Fei: "Is your leg still healed? Is it ready?"

Dongfang Han snorted again: "There is no cure, don't bother mother and concubine."

Concubine Li said displeasedly: "Are you blaming Concubine Mother for not paying attention to you? You are so old, do you still need Concubine Mother to worry about you? Besides, Concubine Mother is busy, so why don't you find time today?" Have you come to see me?"

Dongfang Han continued hehehe: "Really, concubine mother, my son is fine, so... don't bother you."

However, Concubine Li didn't seem to care much about Dongfang Han's attitude.

She smiled and said: "This is really great, Han'er, the concubine mother is here, and I still have one thing to ask for."

Dongfang Han: "Oh."

"However, before that, the concubine mother wants you to taste the snacks that the concubine mother made for you. Come, Qiaoer, present it to Haner to have a look. This kind of snacks are called kidney bean rolls, and they are sold in the palace. It is very popular in Chinese food, and it is the favorite food of our harem concubines and little princes and princesses. My concubine also specially asked the cook in the imperial dining room to make it for you." Concubine Li smiled kindly and greeted cordially , "Son, try it, you haven't eaten the meal that mother concubine cooked for you for a long time, right?"

"Mother Concubine..." Dongfang Han was moved, he hesitantly picked up one and took a bite.

I was drooling when I saw it, wow, it looks really delicious, my nose seems to smell the sweet smell of the cuties.Maybe my resentment was too strong, Dongfang Han also heard it, and he said:

"Mother, can my son keep the rest for later use?"

"You can do whatever you want." Li Fei smiled even wider, "As long as you are willing to eat one now, that's fine."

"Well, thank you, Madam."

When Dongfang Han was moved by his mother's love and his vigilance lowered, Concubine Li suddenly took off his mask and said, "Son, can you take off the mask so that Concubine Mother can take a good look at you?"

The mask was taken off, and Dongfang Han's face was exposed to everyone's eyes, and the scene was full of boos.

"Mother Concubine, you..." His eyes turned cold, but his body became weak and it was difficult to move. "Did you take medicine for the kidney bean roll just now?"

Concubine Li said: "Son, I am very disappointed in you. You have disfigured yourself since you were young, and now you have disfigured your legs, making yourself a ghost. The Qinglong Kingdom's throne cannot accommodate With a cripple like you, what the concubine mother regrets the most is that what was left behind...is you!"

The maidservants walked out of the room by themselves, leaving only two strong eunuchs behind.

"When the mother concubine was pregnant for two months, she found that the month was wrong and her belly was abnormally big. I was cautious and lied about the time. I only hoped that you would be twins. The worst thing happened. I gave birth to two princes The twins are regarded as unknown. I don't want to bear a bad reputation, so I secretly transported your brother away and kept you. For the current plan, you have disappointed me in every way, so I have no choice but to With such a bad plan, let’s have a fight with our own hands... to change the day and let your brother replace you as the... fifth prince of Qinglong Kingdom!"

"Son, please promise mother concubine, die for mother concubine!"

"Laifu, Laishun, do it!"
