Chapter 765: Stick to Him!
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
The windows of the apartment were soundproof, so he couldn’t hear the rain or the sound of the rain hitting the windows.
Pei Huai slept until three in the morning.
This was the longest sleep he had had in a while.
He removed the two layers of blankets on his body and put them aside. He stepped on the ground, his hands supporting his knees, and his fingers pressed against his forehead.
The smell of alcohol still lingered in the air. There were two empty wine glasses on the coffee table and a document that he had casually placed there. The direction of the pen was different from before. Pei Huai frowned.
He picked it up and went to the study.
The sensor light in the study lit up the moment he opened the door.
He walked to the desk, pulled open the drawer in the middle of the desk, and put the document inside.
He sat down and looked at a few more documents from the table.
He raised his hand and was about to close the drawer when he noticed the words written on the back.
Reading the first line, Pei Huai’s body suddenly stiffened!
He quickly took the document out of the drawer and turned on the lamp beside the desk. He read every word carefully.
The front of each paragraph was marked with a number.
Bian Tong was also a person who did things in an orderly manner. He had learnea rrom mm.
There were many requirements, and most of them were still doable. However, there was one that was impossible to obtain at the moment.
[ “Jade bracelet” ]
And it had to be the one Su Ji had been wearing all this time.
Even the high-quality jade that they had auctioned off could not replace it.
If he wanted Su Ji to come back, he had to borrow the power of that jade bracelet.
The jade bracelet contained Pei Huai’s obsession with Su Ji for thousands of years.
That obsession condensed the spiritual energy of heaven and earth.
It could help Su Ji. From the moment Su Ji put it on her hand, Su Ji was its master.
Pei Huai had suspected that Su Ji’s sudden return had something to do with the jade bracelet being damaged.
When it was still around, it was peaceful. However, ever since it broke, everything had taken a turn for the worse.
The conditions needed to help Su Ji come back were not few. Pei Huai only read it once and imprinted them all in his heart.
The jade bracelet was definitely the most important.
However, it had already taken the bullet for Su Ji when she fell from Mia.
Pei Huai had shown Bian Tong the fragments that Su Ji had picked up. Bian Tong was certain that it was impossible to repair them…
Su Ji had been sticking to Prince Huai every day for the past few days.
The officials in the imperial court saw the two of them going out together every day, and the way they looked at each other was strange.
Every day after the court session, Su Ji would either invite Prince Huai into her palace or find all sorts of reasons to follow Prince Huai to his residence.
Today, it was the same again. Just as Su Ji left with Prince Huai, the ministers surrounded them.
They lowered their heads and gathered in a circle, muttering.
Ning Bianyi looked incredulous. “The Consort Dowager is not even willing to pretend now? She wants to openly seduce an important official of the court?” “The Emperor’s spirit in heaven will be angered to death by her!” “What a disgrace to the Emperor! She’s bringing shame to the Great Shang!”
“Indecent!” Si Zhengliang was also fuming. “Prince Huai is also weird. He actually allowed the Consort Dowager to cause trouble!”
“Those who gossip behind people’s backs shall be drowned.”
Then, at this moment, a stern voice that was not angry but authoritative sounded from beside him. The discussions among the officials stopped and they all looked over.
General Wang Mian, who had returned to the court to report, was dressed in silver armor. His beard was white, but he was tall and strong.
All the officials in the court were afraid of him. Si Zhengliang was aloof and arrogant, but he also respected him.
His aura came from his illustrious battle achievements.
As smart as Su Ji was, the first thing she did after taking over the court was to rope Wang Mian in.
There were many people in the imperial court who disliked Su Ji, but they could only mutter behind her back like they were now. They did not dare to openly oppose her, which was definitely partly due to Wang Mian’s support.
Among the officials, Si Zhengliang was the most senior and was the first to speak.
“General Wang, please calm down. It’s indeed inappropriate to talk about people behind their backs, but I believe that General Wang has also seen what Her Highness has done
“Lord Si, you’re wrong.” Wang Mian snorted. “How would you know that Her Highness isn’t discussing state affairs with Prince Huai?”
To discuss state affairs?
When the ministers heard this, they all looked at the two figures in the distance.
Prince Huai’s steps were fast. Su Ji walked briskly to keep up with him. Her footsteps were light and agile. After she caught up, she placed her arm on
Prince Huai’s shoulder. They seemed too intimate and familiar with each other.
Although Prince Huai’s expression behind the mask could not be seen clearly, when the two of them walked to the front of the steps, he still reached out to help Consort Dowager, afraid that she would fall again if she did not look where she was going.
The officials narrowed their eyes.
Wasn’t this a f * cking couple?
However, Wang Mian still did not think much of it. “In short, I guarantee that the Consort Dowager and Prince Huai are absolutely innocent! If the two of them have any feelings for each other, I won’t be able to live past today!” After saying this in a fit of pique, Wang Mian flicked his sleeves and left.
The ministers looked at each other with different expressions.
Prince Huai protected Su Ji as she walked down the steps, telling her not to follow him anymore.
Actually, he should have stopped her from doing this, but…he was also a little reluctant…
However, if she stuck to him every day, she would bring trouble to herself sooner or later.
Su Ji said, “the lychee fermented meat in your manor is delicious. Even the chefs in the imperial kitchen don’t know how to make it. I tried it once in the manor yesterday, so I want to try it again today. You can’t be so stingy and not give me even this little face.”
Prince Huai: ‘ .
“After today, Your Highness must stop following me.”
The more serious he was, the more Su Ji wanted to tease him.
“Then if I want to eat more in the future, what should I do?”
Prince Huai glanced at her, then at her again after a while. He felt helpless. “I’ll ask someone to send them to you.”
In fact, he had specially asked the chef in the manor to study this dish. The chef said that lychees and meat did not match in taste and were not suitable to be paired together. However, Prince Huai did not listen to his reasons and insisted that he make the dish.
Su Ji liked meat and lychees.
The results of the research were indeed not bad.
She liked it.
Su Ji thought about it and smiled. “I think I prefer to have them at your manor. It’s more delicious when it’s fresh.”
Prince Huai: ‘
Su Ji was sticking to him, and she had a legitimate reason.
Pei Huai had come back once the last time. She knew that Pei Huai would definitely think of a way to come back.
However, no one knew when he would be able to come back and how long he would be able to stay the next time.. Therefore, she wanted to stay by Prince Huai’s side as much as possible…
