Returning to Chang'an from Luoyang, the journey was smooth without wind or rain.

Compared to the restraint he came, Tao Ti relaxed a lot on the way back. Whether she was sleeping on his shoulder or lying on his legs, she did not have the psychological burden she had before.

This is her husband who is in love with her!

As she thought about this, many intimate things became natural, such as hugging him from time to time, touching him, being more bold and kissing him.

Of course, I dare not kiss too much. Every time she kisses him secretly, he will always be pressed into the car and kissed her until her legs are weak.

Most of the two of them are in the carriage, and in front of outsiders, they can hold hands and hold their shoulders at most, which is not much different from before.

They slept in the same bed at night. On the first night, Tao Ti was a little embarrassed. When Pei Yan got on the bed, she put her soft body in her arms. After hugging each other for a while, the shame gradually dissipated and turned into a kind of peace of mind.

In the next few nights, she slept openly in Pei Yan's arms. He had a cold and pleasant rosin on his body, and his body temperature was low. It was particularly comfortable to hold on this early summer night.

Whenever he hugged his thin waist, Tao Ti would always think, no wonder Qiongqi was so happy to fall in love, changing boyfriend after boyfriend. It turned out that falling in love was such a happy thing!

The East Palace and his group rushed to the road for seven days and finally returned to Chang'an City at noon on the eighth day.

The city gate of Chang'an was wide open, and Prime Minister Zhou and the eunuch-general manager Li Gui, beside Emperor Zhaokang, greeted each other personally at the door.

The people from both sides watched the excitement one after another. The prince's assassination in Luoyang was spread among the people, whether true or false, and the storyteller also compiled various legends, one more mysterious than the other.

Let’s talk about the carriage from Zhuque Street to the Imperial City, passing Zhuque Gate, Chengtian Gate, and reaching Taiji Palace Square. Emperor Zhaokang, Empress Zhou and all the civil and military officials were already waiting—

When I learned that Emperor Zhaokang had such a big show to welcome the prince, Pei Changzhou and Pei Lingbi's brothers and sisters felt sore in their hearts, thinking that the prince was just a patrol from Luoyang, which made him look like a general who returned from a victory. As for it?

Queen Zhou was too lazy to give them a look and said directly, "As for not being able to do so, it's not your final decision. Your father wants to give him this kind of decency, but what do you think?"

Pei Changzhou and Pei Lingbi choked and both closed their mouths.

When the carriage stopped smoothly in front of Tai Chi Palace, Pei Yan, wearing a foggy white robe, walked out of the car, turned around and lifted the curtain, and helped Tao Ti down.

Knowing that she would be in the palace today, Tao Ti didn't seem to dress up casually as she was on the road, so when she set off from the station in the morning, she asked Linglong to clean up, change into a gorgeous goose yellow brocade skirt, combed a flying fairy bun, and also wore a lot of gold and silver jewelry.

After doing this, he instantly changed from a casual and gentle little beauty to a dignified and luxurious crown princess.

As he got off the carriage, he saw the vast crowd. A hint of surprise flashed in Tao Ti's clear eyes. He approached Pei Yan and said in a voice that only two people heard, "Your Highness, why are there so many people?"

Pei Yan looked calm and said, "The father personally welcomed him. This show is actually quite small."

Tao Ti, “…”

Pei Yan held her hand and smiled gently, "It's okay, I'll be with you."

Tao Ti felt much more at ease. She stood side by side with him, held hands, and walked step by step on the white jade steps towards the high platform.

The afternoon sun shines on the scalp a little hot, but what is even more hot is the gaze of everyone.

Tao Ti pursed her lips and thought nervously, is Your Highness supposed to hold her hand, is she not following the rules?

After thinking about it all over the place, she and Pei Yan walked to Emperor Zhaokang and Empress Zhou.

"My son pays homage to the father and the queen." Pei Yan saluted.

"The daughter-in-law pays homage to the father and the queen." Tao Ti followed suit.

Emperor Zhao Kang raised his hand and said, "No gift."

His gaze fell on Pei Yan in a steady state. He stepped forward and took a big step, pressed Pei Yan's shoulder with both hands, looked up and down carefully, and saw that he looked calm, he felt relieved, "Yan'er, how do you feel now? The wound has recovered?"

Pei Yan chuckled, "Thank you for your concern, my son's injuries are not serious."

Emperor Zhaokang breathed a long sigh and greeted him lovingly. Pei Yan smiled and answered one by one.

This scene of a kind father and a filial son falls into the eyes of everyone, and each has its own ideas.

Tao Ti tried hard to maintain the standard smile. Although she was very moved by Emperor Zhao Kang's care for Pei Yan, she was so big that she was directly ignored by Emperor Zhao Kang's selectively... It was very embarrassing!

She had to be distracted and looked at the reactions of the others.

She glanced at Empress Zhou with a meticulous smile, and at the Pei Changzhou brother and sister who looked so beautiful, but most of them showed emotion.

After some greetings, Emperor Zhaokang finally gave Tao Ti a look, "Crown Princess, do you remember what you told me when you left the palace?"

Taoti, “…?”

She was stunned for a moment, and when she came to her senses, she felt a little panicked, "Daughter-in-law, daughter-in-law..."

Emperor Zhao Kang snorted, "I said, if the prince comes back and loses weight, I will only ask you! Look at him, his chin is sharp..."

Tao Ti swallowed her saliva and was considering her words when she heard Pei Yan say, "Father, the Crown Princess takes good care of her son, if she hadn't sacrificed her life to save her, she would have been in danger."

Emperor Zhao Kang glanced at Tao Ti and said in a deep voice, "I don't care about this matter."

Taoti breathed a sigh of relief and said hurriedly, "Thank you, Father."

Emperor Zhao Kang ignored her and turned to Pei Yan, "You must be tired all the way. Let's go back to the East Palace to rest first. Let's have a meal together at night."

Pei Yan came down and took Tao Ti back to the East Palace first.

When he went to the carriage in the Eastern Palace, Pei Yan saw her like a frightened deer and comforted her, "Don't worry, my father was just kidding you."

Taoti frowned gently and muttered grievance, "It's not like a joke. If you didn't speak for me, he would have really cured me."

"The father is not a foolish emperor, so how could he punish people randomly?"

Pei Yan smiled softly, raised his hand and pinched her soft face, coaxed, "Father is just a little more majestic. He always talks to people like this. You have been lowering your head just now, but you didn't see his expression. He really doesn't blame you... On the contrary, the father recognizes you as your daughter-in-law."

Taoti, “Ha?”

Pei Yan bent his eyebrows and said, "He said, we have dinner together at night."

He specifically emphasized the three words "family".

Tao Ti was stunned for a moment, and then her eyes lit up. She was too nervous just now and didn't pay close attention to the wording.

Now that she thought about it, she felt much more relaxed, but she couldn't help but sigh, "Fortunately, your highness is your personality and the Queen. If you are like Your Majesty... Well, no matter how beautiful you are, I dare not get close to you."

Hearing this, Pei Yan lowered his eyes, and his slender eyelashes covered the undercurrents in his eyes.

Is his temperament following his mother's queen? No, he is more like his father's queen.

But what she likes is his gentle and jade-like side, not the gloomy and indifferent person inside...

Then he will hide it and only show what she likes, and don't scare her away.

"Your Highness, Your Highness?" Tao Ti called out twice, and Shui Lingling's eyes stared at him in confusion, "What are you thinking?"

Pei Yan came back to his senses and smiled faintly, "The father never looked like this in front of his mother. He was very kind to his mother and loved him very much, and he wanted to hold all the best in the world in front of her."

Tao Ti's eyes fluttered, thinking of the clean and beautiful Fengyi Palace, and thinking of Emperor Zhaokang's love for Pei Yan, he nodded without saying much.

The carriage was scattered and drove steadily into the East Palace.

Pei Yan returned to Zixiao Palace first, while Tao Ti returned to her Yaoguang Palace.

Seven days ago, I heard that the prince and his friends set out from Luoyang, and the people in the Yaoguang Palace were happy and carefully cleaned up and down the Yaoguang Palace, and even the floor tiles were polished shiny.

When he saw the princess' carriage coming, the palace people lined up in two neatly, and when the carriage stopped, they bent down to salute.

Looking at the smiling faces of the palace people, Tao Ti felt inexplicably honor as a leader of the military parade. She greeted them in a kind manner, and then helped them into the house to rest.

After a simple wash, Taoti lay on her familiar big bed and took a comfortable nap.

This time I slept very peacefully.

When I opened my eyes again, I found that there were more people beside me—

Seeing Pei Yan sleeping on the side, Taoti's brain was dull for a moment. Why did he sleep here?

As if feeling her doubts, Pei Yan slowly opened his eyes, his black eyes were covered with a layer of hazy water vapor, and his voice was a little hoarse, "Are you awake?"

It's amazing when I just woke up.

Taoti's cheeks were slightly red, "Yeah..."

She looked outside, and the shallow dark light shone through the curtain, meaning it was not dark yet.

"Your Highness, when did you come?"

Pei Yan's hand was always on her slender waist, and now he pulled her into his arms again, like a lazy lion, firmly capturing his prey.

His chin touched her hair intimately and said lazily, "I'll come over after packing up in Zixiao Palace. Seeing that you were sleeping so well, I lay down and fell asleep together."

Tao Ti gently grabbed his clothes and whispered, "So should we get up now? We have to go and have dinner with His Majesty at night."

Pei Yan closed his eyes and rubbed his chin against her, "Be good, let me hug you for a while, huh?"

This inadvertent, coquettish and lazy tone made Tao Ti's heart beat, and she was really unable to resist.

She also quietly closed her eyes and hid in his arms.

Linglong was still outside the door calculating the same time. She was afraid of delaying the matter, so she bit the bullet and called up. Only then did the two people on the bed slowly get up.

Pei Yan changed into a bamboo green robe, slender and upright, with a crown and jade face. If he was paired with a folding fan, he would be a handsome young man in the turbid world with a stunning temperament.

Tao Ti also chose a light blue dress with a concentric bun. Because it was a family banquet tonight, she was not dressed up too gorgeously and generously, so she only chose a set of jade heads and faces to wear, gentle but not lacking in her nobleness.

After the packing was over, the two stood together, and the palace people all looked amazed: The prince and the princess are really more and more compatible!

Night falls and lights are on.

On the way to Zichen Palace, Tao Ti was a little nervous, "Your Highness, are you still the three of you still have tonight?"

Pei Yan said, "The Queen should be here too."

When Tao Ti heard this, she probably felt that there were so many people that it could distract Zhao Kangdi, but she was not so nervous.
Chapter completed!
