Following. After returning from the practice, for the first time, I conscientiously copied the Buddhist scriptures, from morning to lunch, but not for myself.

When Zhizhi came back, she walked behind me silently, without saying a word, but I felt a cloud of sadness hanging behind me.

"You're back. I didn't look up, but continued with my hand, "If you want to blame me for being ruthless, it's better to say it." ”

"Princess......" Zhizhi called to me, her voice full of sadness, "Bi Yu is covered in blood...... She pulled me and said she was in pain...... I ......"

My hand staggered, and a drop of ink accidentally dripped on the rice paper, like red blood dissolving in water, slowly blending.

I forced myself to pay attention to the scriptures I wrote, but the dense number of characters made me dizzy, and every character I had just written became Biyu's weeping eyes, lingering in front of my eyes.

"Gong ...... Princess?"

I jerked to my feet, crumpled the paper in distraught, and threw it on the ground.

Zhizhi hurriedly came over to help me and asked, "Does the princess have a headache again?"

I tried to shake my head, but gradually stabilized, and asked, "When are you going...... Is the Fourth Highness here?"

Zhizhi: "Your Royal Highness went to the Imperial Court Riding Shooting Range early in the morning, and I heard that the emperor held a riding and archery competition today, and the children of Chang'an who are good at riding and shooting came to participate." ”

I was a little relieved and said, "These two ** went to Canghua Hall to take care of Bi Yu, and I don't worry about others." Zhizhi nodded, I paused for a moment, and then said, "This matter can't be noticed by Jing Hong no matter what!"

Zhizhi was stunned for a moment and replied, "Yes......"

I remembered something again: "You went this morning, nothing went wrong, did you?"

Zhizhi pursed her lips and was silent for a long time before she said: "When the slave and maid returned, I saw the lord of Hudong and Princess Lanshao going to the riding shooting range together, I don't know what to do......

I bowed my head slightly, motioning for Zhizhi to continue.

The slave heard a few words from afar...... Princess Lan Shao mentioned the names of you, the princess, and the prince of Yan Kingdom. ”

I snorted coldly and said, "She knows what it means to be 'seeing a stitch'." ”

Zhizhi was puzzled: "Princess, you and the prince ...... yesterday"

I asked her, "How long did she stay outside the window when you found Lianxi?"

Zhizhi replied: "I heard from the people in the palace that since the prince entered Beijing, the county lord followed him wherever the prince went, and it must have been yesterday." ”

I gasped, and in this way, didn't she see everything that happened yesterday with Shen Zhan?

"Does the princess not know how to explain it to the county lord?"

"Lianxi is simple, if he is intentionally used...... "Thinking of the Chinese New Year's Eve banquet, Lianxi had no intention of embarrassing Lan Shao, with Lan Shao's virtue of retribution, he must have hated Lianxi.

I was excited and asked, "Where is Shen Zhan now?"

Zhizhi was puzzled and replied, "The prince should also be in the Imperial Court Riding Shooting Range." ”

I said, "You ask Jinglan to wait for me to change into light clothes, and we'll go too." ”

Zhizhi opened her mouth half-open, unable to figure out my thoughts: "Princess...... I'm afraid you'll ...... now."

"I can't care about this right now!" I said impatiently, "if even Xi believes me." If she is provoked by Lan Shao and does something stupid, you don't know her character!"

Zhizhi suddenly understood, and when I arrived at the Imperial Riding Shooting Range after finishing the rectification, the competition was in full swing.

On the riding and archery field, it is divided into two teams of clans and families, and one-on-one equestrian and archery competitions are conducted.

Now it is Shen Zhan's turn to have the second round of archery competition with Pei Shaoyi, and the peach-eyed handsome little white face against the peerless beauty of Fenghua has a strong contradictory beauty.

"Zhaoyuan, you're here too. The emperor was in a good mood today, and his face was pleasant, "Just sit beside me." ”

On the royal viewing platform, the emperor sat Xiao Guifei and Chang Jieyu on the left and right, followed by the juniors of the royal family. I stood on the podium, and I didn't know how to sit down, and on the left and right sat the prince and the minister.

"Xiao Yue'er, come to Uncle Huang!" King Yan waved his hand at me and beckoned me over.

I noticed that Lian Xi was stunned behind me, and Lan Shaoshi Shiran, who was sitting next to her, smiled at me, at first glance she was very dignified and generous.

"Celestia, sit with me. The crown princess invited me to sit with her on one side, and when she saw me in her equestrian suit, she quipped, "I have never seen you change into riding clothes, but you look much more energetic than usual. Speaking of which, on Chinese New Year's Eve, I haven't had time to say hello to you. ”

If the sound is not loud or small, it just happens to be heard by the guests seated at the stage.

I pursed my lips and smiled: "The imperial sister-in-law has been making more and more fun of people recently, but the prince's brother taught her?"

"When will the crown prince have the ability to speak so eloquently?" the emperor said, "If he wants to be half as clever as you, he will not be like this today." ”

I got up and said, "Brother Prince's brother is honest and honest, but he is wrong in his simple nature. But Erchen thinks that life should be based on 'loyalty', 'filial piety', 'courtesy', and 'faith', and these prince's brothers have adhered to them very well over the years. ”

Xiao Guifei stroked the jade on her hand, and said intentionally or unintentionally: "The eldest princess has been sick for all these years, and she has practiced for three years, but she also knows that the prince of the Dao has adhered to his duty over the years. ”

I realized I had said the wrong thing, and I froze there.

"Niangniang, the prince and the princess have a deep love for brothers and sisters, in previous years, the princess practiced, the prince was worried about his heart, and there were often correspondence. I think that the prince wrote the precepts that he taught the East Palace on weekdays into the letter, so that the eldest princess had this impression. ”

As she spoke, she nudged me secretly.

"Zhao Yuan, is that so?"

"Yes......" I came back to my senses and met the emperor's sharp gaze, "Father, do you remember when the prince came to Chaolu Temple to pray for blessings on your behalf?"

The emperor thought for a moment and said, "I seem to have an impression." ”

I nodded, and I was frank: "When the prince came to Fengming Mountain, he won a lot of praise in half a month. The monks do not speak, and the father can ask the abbot of the temple, Master Jinghui, for verification. ”

The emperor groaned: "Jingluan has such a long time?"

I glanced at Concubine Xiao for a while, and only said: "Father, have you heard the Si Tian Prison Attendant mention it? In this world, the sun and the moon are originally symbiotic and coexist, but during the day, the sunlight strongly covers the light of the moon. But if it is in the dark night, the people of the people cannot live without the moon. ”

Everyone was stunned, and they didn't expect me to say such a subtle remark.

I have always said one thing, the emperor knows my temperament, and his sharp eyes looked at me for a long time, and there was a slight smile on his face: "It is novel to compare me and the prince to the sun and the moon." ”

I couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, sat back in my seat, and focused on the riding range.

Shen Zhan narrowly defeated Pei Shao on the field, accepted the Ugin Cloud Piercing Bow, straddled the horse, and gave a salute to the thirteen who were so angry that he rode away.

There were bursts of applause from the audience.

Lianxi's gaze followed Shen Zhan from beginning to end, and I finally realized the power of infatuation with a girl who was just beginning to fall in love.

"Princess, Shicai is really thrilling. "If you whisper to me," if that metaphor is thought of by the emperor, it will be a crime of disobedience. ”

I was now concerned about how to explain yesterday's events with Lianxi, and I had no intention of discussing the matter with her, so I coped: "This is the difference between you and me and my father." He is the Son of Heaven, and he has an open mind for the world, even if it is Lun Mingyue, he can't shake him in the slightest. ”

After a pause, he chuckled: "It should be so." ”

I remembered something again, looked at it a few times, but didn't say anything more.

Shen Zhan sat back beside King Yan and was stunned when he saw me.

"Brother Huang, I saw that you were weak on weekdays, but I didn't expect the prince to be impressive!

King Yan was dissatisfied with the emperor saying that he was weak, and said: "The son of the widow is naturally excellent, and the royal brother has also moved out of the prince, so that the widow can see and understand!"

Everyone in the column knows that the emperor of this dynasty is withering, the eldest prince is weak and not favored, the third son died early, the prince is now going south for disaster relief, and the remaining five princes are still young. can play the game, only the fourth prince Jing Hong remains.

"Father, the next game will be played by the sons. Jing Hong came out of the ranks, with a hint of exhaustion on his face.

The emperor didn't ask him anything, nodded in agreement.

"Your Majesty, then this time will be discussed between the last general and the four highnesses. "Another man who came out of the ranks is Xiao Xiang's son, and now the commander of the Yulin Army, Xiao Ao.

The emperor was interested: "Xiao Xiang's son is willing to compete today, it's really rare!"

Xiao Xiang said respectfully on the side: "The dog is shallow, I have never seen the emperor's riding skills, and the emperor will let him compete with the four highnesses, so that he can have a long experience!"

"Okay, Jing Hong, you can compare yourself with him!"

"Fourth Highness, please come here!"
