It was already late at night after the dinner party, and at another place, Pei Guanlan returned to the palace, and did not send someone to ask Pei Ting to smell it in a hurry.

It was the next day when Pei Tingwen came down to pay her respects, and she mentioned what the maid had reported to her.

"Last night, where did you go?"

She was sitting in the main seat, while drinking tea, she got straight to the point.

After a brief glance, his eyes fell on the sachet tied to one side of his waistthat was where he wore the jade pendant in the past.

After giving away the jade pendant, his belt was empty for several days without wearing anything.

Then one day suddenly, there was a new thing in that empty space.

Originally, there was no need to be surprised. Without the jade pendant, it is not surprising to use sachets as accessories.

Oddly enough, the little flowers embroidered on the back of the sachet not his style at all.

It was like a token of love given to him by a girl, but when she asked, he didn't answer, and just casually said that it was given to him by a sensible child.

He didn't mention who the specific child was.

Now think about it...

It turned out that the child he was talking about was the future third concubine.

Pei Tingwen, who was dressed in crimson court attire and hadn't had time to change yet, had a tall official hat, a face like a crown jade, a peerless talent, with a cold and heartless appearance.

When he is not smiling, his expression is always indifferent, and the scar on his eyebrows cuts off his gentle and gentle vitality, adding a bit of unruly and fierceness.

Facing Pei Guanlan's questioning question, he lowered his eyebrows, as if he already knew what she was asking, he poured tea and took a sip.

"Last night, what did Sister know?"

"..." Pei Guanlan saw that he was not in a hurry when she knew about him, and almost didn't come up in one breath.

"What do I know? What can I know? Last night you took leave of absence from the dinner party just to meet aa"

"Do you know that she is the third concubine? She is already on the empress's side!"

Pei Guanlan couldn't figure it out, no matter what.

How could he like a

Not to mention identity, it is inappropriate just because of age.

He is almost twice as old as someone else, uncles, messing around, isn't it?

"..." He slightly rubbed the cup with his fingertips, raised his eyes, his black eyes were cold and casual, "what is Sister thinking?"

"Si... the second girl is just a child to me, a little sister, and I have no other intentions."

"No other meaning?" Pei Guanlan's eyes revealed the words "Do you believe me?" "There is no other meaning. You left the feast in the palace and refused to participate in the Mid-Autumn Festival. You even asked His Majesty for leave and ran to play with her?"

"To be honest, I'm curious, when did you have such a good relationship with her? Do you often meet in private?"

If someone other than her happened to bump into while looking for news

I don't know how long he will keep it from her.

"The jade pendant given by the master, you gave it to her, right? This sachet is also given to you, right? You have a private life?"

"..." Pei Tingwen didn't speak, and raised his right hand slightly, seemingly inadvertently blocking his sachet.

Faced with questioning, he remained calm, and replied: "No, no, sister, don't think too much, there is...no relationship between us."

"No relationship?" Pei Guanlan accurately grasped his words, "From your tone, do you want to have something to do with her?"
