On the day of the examination, Pei Changyuan got up before the fourth watch. Although he wanted to watch his unpromising son compete, he could only pack up.

Pei Ming was extremely reluctant to give up. "Can't we wait a few more hours?"

Pei Changyuan put on his armor and touched his daughter's head. "Military orders are like mountains. You can't delay for a moment. You can live and work in peace and contentment for your father and defend your country. It's just I'm afraid you'll be bullied. "

Pei Ming knew that he was talking about Xue tingji. "My daughter is not a soft persimmon. Don't worry about my father."

Pei Changyuan died in the west at that time. There should be no accident when she went to the north this time, but she was still worried and couldn't bear to go back until she was sent to the palace city.

At this time, it is still early to dawn. Seeing his father's figure hidden behind the palace gate, Pei Ming stands in the night, thinking about the regret that he failed to keep filial piety for his father in his last life. He is so immersed that he doesn't realize that he is a latecomer.

When she reacted, a heavy cloak was put on her shoulder. Xue tingji's voice was rare and quiet, "how can I be here alone?"

Unexpectedly, Pei Ming held the hand that tied her cloak.

When she learned of her father's death in the last life, she and Xue tingji were in the north. They couldn't go back to the Imperial City, and they couldn't even kowtow. He was the only one who stayed with her all the time. That was his last tenderness.

Xue tingji thought that she didn't want to give up general Pei. He braved her and hugged her. Unexpectedly, instead of pushing him away, she leaned on his arm.

The time before dawn is the most vulnerable time for people. Pei Ming forgets that the time has changed and is used to cuddling with him.

But soon she came back to herself.

Xue tingji didn't touch her too much, so she could be pushed away easily. In the hazy sky, she seemed to see the tears of her stars.

"Sorry, I didn't mean to be frivolous." He said.

His gentleness at this time makes Pei Ming not know how to face him. "It's the minister's daughter who lost her honor. How can your highness be here?"

It turns out that today's examination, all the princes want to enter the palace to listen to the emperor's instructions, but Xue tingji is always the first to enter the palace.

"It's still early. I'll take you back to your house first."

Pei Ming doesn't want to deal with him. He replies that it's good to go back by himself. He remembers that his cloak is about to be untied, and Xue tingji holds her hand.

He asked if she hated him and didn't want to see him.

"Is it because you are afraid to face me that general Pei left you so sad? I I don't want you to be afraid of me. "

Pei Ming is speechless and selfish. He wants to be greedy for the warmth for a while. He smiles for a long time. "If the courtesan are not afraid of you, your highness can't blame the courtesan for offending you."

Xue tingji, who had been angry for so many days, was finally happy and urged her to go back. He would ask for the cloak later.

However, they didn't notice that in the hidden corner under the palace wall, a little eunuch saw the scene clearly and quietly retreated into the dark

After daybreak, the imperial city became lively. All the families surrounded the men to chongwenyuan, and Pei Shuo was also on the road.

Pei Ming saw him off. He was still telling the rules of the martial arts test. When he passed Taifu, he just met Xu Yi's chariots and horses.

"Mr. Xu, it's better to go all the way."

Xu Yi hasn't seen Pei Ming since his engagement was put on hold last time. Compared with Pei Ming's calm, he is much more cramped.

"Ming, Miss Pei." Since it's not an engagement relationship, it's against the rules to call it intimacy again.

Pei Ming pretends not to care. Since he was a child, he has always called it this way. He is not used to it.

This makes Xu Yi very happy, along the way also flexible a lot, Pei Ming bear hate false flattery, wish him a gold medal.

However, the expectation of yuyuelongmen is not everyone can have. In the deep palace, Zhao Jieyu, who has always been good-natured, is on fire.

"Do you know what you're doing! I told you not to worry about Pei's daughter. You are looking for death! "

When the tea cup broke, Xue Ting knelt in the hall and clenched his teeth.

"Mother, my son has no other intention. He just wants Pei Ming."

His eyes were red as he raised them.

"I'm not the crown prince, so I can't run the country, and I can't form a clique for personal gain. My son admits it, but I'm bound to marry a wife!"

"Yes, just not." Zhao Jieyu clasped his shoulder and said, "if you are a daughter of another family, your mother will do as you like, but the Pei family can't do it. Besides, Pei Ming is the daughter-in-law of the Xu family. Why do you want to rob her?"

Xue Ting broke away his mother's hand and said, "the marriage between Xu Yi and Pei Ming can't be completed. They --"

"so what if they don't match?" Zhao Jieyu immediately let his heart cold a thorough, if you really want to get married, this little excuse is nothing, as long as the examination is over, the Xu family's direct grandson has an official position, Pei Ming, will still be carried into the Xu family

Xue tingji realized that many things were not as simple as he thought.

He left the palace in despair. When he passed Chongwen college, he met a large number of students, thinking that Xu Yi's knowledge should be the best one. But the more he thought about it, the more jealous he was.Xu Yi can take part in the test, but he can't be an official.

Xu Yi has the support of two adults, and he can marry Pei Ming, but he doesn't have the help.

Only Pei Ming's gentleness made him reluctant to let go.

But then, in the crowd, he saw the situation he didn't want to see.
