42. Chapter 42

Xiao Ren'an was stunned for a moment, looked at Xiao Yanzhi, who pretended not to hear what they said, shook his head and said, "I don't know, brother, he ...... All the time. ā€

Since childhood, they have become accustomed to their brother knowing everything and everything, as if nothing in the world can stump their brother, but why does his brother know so much? Obviously, they all grew up in that village like them, and there are no talented hermits in the village, who did my brother learn so much from?

"Don't know?" Pei Ze raised his eyebrows, patted Xiao Yanzhi's leg, and asked, "Where did you learn foreign languages?" ā€

It would not be surprising if Xiao Yanzhi only had one foreign language, and there were many people in Zhongshu Province who knew foreign languages who were responsible for translating Fanshu, but most of those people went to the land of foreign Fanbang by chance, or dealt with foreign merchants, and then spent years of painstaking study to barely understand a Fanbang script, like Xiao Yanzhi, who can understand everything, which one can understand and which one can speak is really not, not to mention that Xiao Yanzhi is only in his early twenties, no matter how he looks at it, it doesn't look like he has spent years of painstaking study.

Xiao Yanzhi retracted his legs, glanced at Pei Ze, and said in a strange manner: "I am self-taught." ā€

As soon as Pei Ze heard this, he kicked Xiao Yan: "I'll ask you seriously." ā€

"I'm serious about answering too."

Where did he learn foreign languages? Of course, he learned from his teacher, and he was an elite flying around the world before he crossed over, right? However, it took him a lot of effort to switch from modern to ancient Chinese, and he was self-taught.

Pei Ze felt helpless at Xiao Yanzhi's lukewarm attitude, and after glancing at the group of foreigners who were making a fuss, thinking that probably no one would notice them, Pei Ze suddenly reached out and grabbed Xiao Yanzhi's arm, and pulled the person to his side with a hard pull.

Xiao Yanzhi's body suddenly fell from one side to the other, and he squinted at Pei Ze, and Xiao Yanzhi calmly leaned on Pei Ze's lap.

Pei Ze looked at Xiao Yanzhi with a smile and asked, "What are you doing with me?" ā€

Xiao Yanzhi replied lazily, "You pulled me over." ā€

Pei Ze was helpless, and asked with a low smile: "Just so angry?" ā€

"It's not that I'm angry," Xiao Yanzhi glanced at Xu Lishan, "I'm just not happy." ā€

"There's a difference?" Pei Ze unconsciously stretched out his hand and arranged Xiao Yanzhi's hair.

Xiao Yanzhi narrowed his eyes and simply lay on Pei Ze's lap.

Pei Ze was stunned, and his eyebrows frowned slightly: "Get up and sit, aren't you afraid that people will see it and sue your majesty?" ā€

Xiao Yanzhi smiled and said, "It's because someone has been watching." ā€

Someone? Pei Ze subconsciously looked for Xu Lishan's figure in the wing, and sure enough, he saw Xu Lishan sitting not far from them, staring at this side with a pair of eyes.

Retracting his gaze, Pei Ze patted Xiao Yanzhi's forehead and said, "He's your younger brother, can't you let him?" You're so good to them. ā€

Xiao Yanzhi sneered: "Ren'an, they treat me as my brother, I treat them well, and they treat me well, but what about Xu Lishan?" I treat him well, and he still has to wonder if I have any crooked thoughts, so I won't do it. It's not me saying that he is in good health, and it is no accident that he can live for another twenty or thirty years, so what's the use of him staring at the throne at this time? My father didn't allow him to be in power for three years, didn't he want to think about why? He is stupid all day long, and he doesn't know what he is busy with. ā€

"Don't talk nonsense!" The life span of the emperor is also something that Xiao Yanzhi can discuss casually? If the emperor knows about this, even if he spoils him, he will have to clean him up, "Can you control your mouth?" Sooner or later, you'll know what trouble comes from the mouth! ā€

Xiao Yanzhi said disapprerovitously: "I have King Wucheng to ward off evil spirits and exorcise ghosts for me, how can I be so unlucky?" ā€

Pei Ze was so angry that he slapped Xiao Yan again.

Xiao Ren'an suddenly pulled Xiao Yanzhi's clothes and said in a low voice: "Brother, someone went next to that person." ā€

Hearing this, Xiao Yanzhi got up and turned his head blankly.

It's "there is a person" again, and it's "that person", who is Ren An's talking about?

As a result, Xiao Yanzhi was startled, the prince of the Great Food Country didn't know when he came out of Xiangsheng's side, and he actually went to the side of Xu Lishan, who was alone, and he drank a lot when he saw the red ears on his face.

"Tsk! He's going to get in trouble! Xiao Yanzhi tidied up his clothes and said to Xiao Ren'an, "Ren'an, give me a bottle of water." ā€

Xiao Ren'an immediately picked up a wine bottle from the side, but after thinking about it, he was still not at ease, and said, "Brother, I'll go with you." ā€

My brother can't drink, even if it's just one glass, it's going to happen, but after they opened a wine shop, they always have to socialize with others, so he and Xiangsheng have to go with him every time. Xiangsheng was originally a lively and outgoing person, as long as he went to the occasion of entertainment, Xiangsheng could get into the crowd and have fun with people, and Xiangsheng's alcohol consumption is said to have been passed down from his father, and the amount of alcohol is amazing.

He stayed by his brother's side, and replaced all the wine that his brother wanted to drink with water, which would be seen through at first, but then Junmeng studied it for a long time, and mixed some food into powder, and after adding it to the water, there was a taste similar to wine, which was not strong, but it was enough to fool around. It's just that my brother can't cope with it alone, and he still has to cooperate with him.

Xiao Yanzhi nodded, and led Ren An to Xu Lishan's side.

"Prince Harley, is the game they arranged too boring?" As he spoke, Xiao Yanzhi kicked Xu Lishan and whispered in Chinese, "Go to Pei Ze's side and stay!" ā€

Xu Lishan was already frightened by the big cannibal who suddenly came to his side, and when he heard Xiao Yanzhi say this, he couldn't care about being angry with Xiao Yanzhi, and immediately ran away with a rolling belt, and ran to Pei Ze's side in one go.

Harley watched Xu Lishan run away with regret, and then complained to Xiao Yanzhi with some dissatisfaction: "I scared away the little rabbit that Prince Ben just found, how do you compensate me?" ā€

Xiao Yanzhi sat down beside Harley and said with a smile: "That's not a little rabbit, that's the king's royal brother, King Qi, I heard that I was playing here, so I came over to have a good time." It's not the first time Prince Harley has come to Tang Kingdom, so he should have seen him, right? ā€

Hearing this, Harley glanced at Xu Lishan again, and said with an evil smile: "Oh? That's the King of Qi? I haven't seen him for two years, and King Qi's appearance has changed a little. ā€

Xiao Yanzhi's eyebrows jumped: "The boy grows up fast, if Prince Harley comes back next year, he will probably grow more brave." ā€

Harley shook his head and sighed, "That's a pity. ā€

Xiao Yanzhi pondered for a while, and then said to Xiao Ren'an: "Ren'an, go to the bustard's mother in Le Fang to ask for a slender young man with a ...... appearance Ordinary ones are fine. If this music shop doesn't have it, ask the bustard mother to borrow someone from the side. Remember to be a teenager. ā€

Xiao Ren'an was shocked, and hurriedly got up and ran away.

Harley couldn't understand Chinese, and when he saw Xiao Ren'an running away after listening to Xiao Yanzhi's few instructions, he suddenly became curious: "What did the prince say to your entourage?" Where is he going? ā€

Xiao Yanzhi smiled and said: "Since Prince Harley doesn't like to play the same game with other people, then the king has to arrange another game for the prince. ā€

Harley was stunned for a moment, and then laughed and said, "Lord Wang, does anyone say that you are very smart?" ā€

Xiao Yanzhi nodded: "I often hear people say this." ā€

Harley was amused by Xiao Yanzhi again, and said: "This prince has lived in Chang'an for a while, and he has met the prince a few times, but he didn't expect the prince to be such an interesting person, what a waste of time." ā€

Xiao Yanzhi picked up his wine glass and said, "This king respects the prince with a glass, and I hope that the next time the prince comes to Chang'an, this king can have the honor to have a good chat with the prince." ā€

"Hahaha, okay, we've got to have a good talk." As the words fell, Harley drank the wine from his glass in a heroic manner.

Xiao Yanzhi was also heroic, but what he drank into his stomach was just water.

Pouring himself a second glass of wine, Harley glanced at Xiao Yan and suddenly asked, "Speaking of rudeness, when Prince Ben came to Tang Kingdom before, it seems that he had never seen the prince. ā€

Xiao Yanzhi also poured himself another glass of water, and said disapprerovitically: "This king has lived in the Jiangnan area of the Tang Kingdom since he was born, and he only returned to Chang'an a few months ago. ā€

"Gangnam? This prince knows that Qin Fengming told this prince before, saying that the young man in Jiangnan is gentle and moving, like a woman, this prince originally didn't believe it, but now that he knows that the prince grew up in Jiangnan, this prince believes it. Next time, the prince must come to the Tang Kingdom early, and when the time comes, please take the prince to take the prince to Jiangnan to have a look. With that, Harley smiled to himself, as if he could go to Gangnam tomorrow to be surrounded by soft boys.

Xiao Yanzhi twitched the corners of his mouth and laughed dryly.

After accompanying the prince to talk nonsense for a while, Xiao Yanzhi brought back a teenager from Xiao Ren'an sweating profusely.

Xiao Yanzhi breathed a long sigh of relief, and asked Harley with a smile: "Prince Harley, does the prince like this game arranged by the king for the prince?" ā€

Harley looked at the young man and laughed, "The prince is smart! Clever! ā€

"The prince is free, and this king will not occupy the prince's time." Xiao Yanzhi stood up, bowed slightly to Halai, and turned to leave.

Harley also got up, put the boy in his arms, and happily opened the wing.

Returning to Pei Ze and Xu Lishan's side, Xiao Yanzhi kicked Xu Lishan unceremoniously, and said slightly angrily: "What are you doing sitting there stupidly? He came over and you don't know how to hide?! You can't understand what people are saying, what if something happens?! ā€

"I—I don't know what he's going to do!" When he saw Harley leaving with a teenager in his arms, Xu Lishan understood what was going on, and he was scared into a cold sweat.

Xiao Yanzhi stammered impatiently, and then glared at Pei Ze and said, "You hurry up and take him away!" Don't mess with me here! ā€

Originally, Xu Lishan was upset, but he was still stupid here. There are now some foreigners who have drunk too much in this room, and Xu Lishan is really worse than Xiangsheng and Xu Liqian sitting here!

"What about you...... Be careful yourself. Pei Ze sighed, picked Xu Lishan up and walked out.

Xiao Yanzhi watched the two of them leave, and then sat down angrily.

Just like Xu Lishan, do you still want to grab the throne? It would be nice if he could keep the throne! Stupid!

Without waiting for Xiao Yan to finish slandering, he saw Pei Ze push open the door and walk in again.

Seeing Pei Ze unhurriedly walking to his side and sitting down again, Xiao Yanzhi was stunned and asked, "Didn't you ask you to send Xu Lishan back to the palace?" ā€

"Well," Pei Ze nodded, and said, "Send him on the horse and see him back to the palace." ā€

Xiao Yanzhi laughed with a puff: "Xu Lishan is going to be angry." ā€

Xu Lishan obviously wanted to take Pei Ze away and not let Pei Ze be with him, but he still couldn't take Pei Ze away.

Pei Ze frowned and said, "What is he angry about?" He won't encounter any danger on the way back to the palace, but it's more dangerous for you to stay here. ā€

knew that there were also good men among the foreigners, and he would definitely not let Xiao Yanzhi come over today, who knows what those foreigners would do if they drank too much? Who can guarantee that Xiao Yanzhi will not get drunk?

Xiao Yanzhi rolled his eyebrows and laughed: "What? Afraid that I will steal it? ā€

Pei Ze glared at Xiao Yan and said, "I'm afraid you will let people eat it!" ā€

Xiao Yanzhi laughed when he heard this.

Facts have proved that Pei Ze's worries are really not in vain, after the envoys of Da Shi, Silla and Hui Hui all left with people, those people in the Western Regions somehow remembered Xiao Yanzhi, and they actually left the woman alone, and all gathered around to drink with Xiao Yanzhi.

Xiao Xiangsheng scratched his head and looked at Xiao Yanzhi innocently: "I don't know what's going on." ā€

He should have almost poured people into it, why is he suddenly so energetic again?

Xiao Yanzhi couldn't refuse, so he could only drink with water instead of wine, and even Pei Ze, who was beside Xiao Yanzhi, was not spared, and was pulled and poured down one cup after another, and the feeling of not understanding what people were saying but still drinking with him made Pei Ze depressed.

After finally flooding these people from the Western Regions unconscious, Xiao Yanzhi hurriedly asked a few women in the wing room to drag these people from the Western Regions away, and when he looked at the side room, only Xiao Yanzhi, Xiao Ren'an and Zheng Lang were sober.

Xiao Yanzhi drank water from beginning to end, and the wine that was forced into his hands later was also snatched away by Pei Ze, so he survived. Xiao Ren'an is used to such occasions, and knows how to hide behind Xiao Yanzhi and pretend that he doesn't have a zĆ i, so he has not drunk a drop of wine.

Zheng Lang is even more interesting, he had a headache with these foreigners from the beginning, so he hid in the corner of the wing room early, and got together with a Tang translator to drink tea and eat melon seeds, which escaped, but the translator who was with him was later caught by Xu Liqian, and he was drunk regardless of thirty-seven twenty-one.

Looking at the Tang State interpreter lying in the wing, Xiao Yanzhi helped Pei Ze and rubbed his forehead.

"Zheng Lang, anyway, we have chartered this music workshop today, so let's arrange for these interpreters to live in the music room, and then send someone to pick up the envoys back to the barbarian mansion tomorrow morning."

"Yes, lord." Zheng Lang immediately responded.

Xiao Yanzhi looked at Xu Lishan, who was lying on the ground and was asleep, and Pei Ze, who was leaning on him, and said: "In addition, go outside the door to see if He Yan is there, and let He Yan go to the Wucheng Palace, and bring the carriage over, just say that the Third Highness is also there, and let Li An make good arrangements." ā€

"Yes." Zheng Lang quickly went out to find He Yan.

After He Yan went out, Xiao Ren'an said with a smile: "It's the first time I've seen Xiangsheng being drunk. ā€

Xiao Yanzhi also looked at Xiao Xiangsheng who was lying on Xiao Ren'an's lap, and said with a smile: "Fortunately, when I am drunk, I only know how to sleep, it seems that I am the worst person in our family." ā€

Xiao Ren'an teased: "Brother was like that when he didn't drink. ā€

Xiao Yanzhi glanced at Xiao Ren'an: "I haven't been by your side for a year, and the three of you are getting bolder." ā€

Xiao Ren'an looked down at Xiao Xiangsheng and said in a low voice: "I don't know what Xiangsheng and Junmeng think, but I have a grudge in my heart. We are obviously only half of the blood relationship, no matter what happens, my brother will never leave us, but when you are in trouble, you walked away, without even an explanation, saying that you want to travel all over the world to find your husband's family, are you still a three-year-old child? ā€

"No," Xiao Yanzhi smiled helplessly, "It's just that I don't know what things are going to turn out to, and I don't know what to tell you." ā€

Xiao Ren'an pursed his lips, was silent for a moment, and then said: "I asked Li An, and he said that his brother was captured by King Wucheng in Bianzhou and returned to Beijing. ā€

As soon as he heard this, Xiao Yanzhi smiled and said, "Isn't it?" If it weren't for the fact that this bastard would take me back to Chang'an for everything, why would I have been wandering outside for a year, struggling for so long, but still coming to Chang'an. ā€

As soon as he thought of this, Xiao Yanzhi flicked Pei Ze's forehead hard to vent his anger.

Pei Ze was in pain, opened his eyes and looked at Xiao Yanzhi in confusion.

Xiao Yanzhi was amused by that innocent look, and hurriedly reached out to cover Pei Ze's eyes: "It's okay, let's sleep." ā€

"Yes." Pei Ze closed his eyes again, rubbed on Xiao Yanzhi's shoulder, and continued to sleep.

Xiao Yanzhi sighed, and asked Xiao Ren'an again: "Are you still complaining now?" ā€

Xiao Ren'an shook his head and jokingly said: "My brother was born with such an unobtrusive person, and I, the younger brother, can only admit it." ā€

Xiao Yan was stunned, then shook his head and sighed: "My younger brothers and sisters are becoming more and more out of tune, but what should I do?" ā€

Xiao Ren'an smiled and said, "The upper beam is not right and the lower beam is crooked, brother, you admit it." ā€

Xiao Yanzhi stretched out his hand and patted Xiao Ren'an's head.

After waiting for more than half an hour, Li An brought a few people into the wing room in a hurry, and as soon as he entered the door, he was startled by the messy scene in the wing room, and when he found Pei Ze, who was sleeping on Xiao Yanzhi's body, Li An breathed a sigh of relief.

Xiao Yanzhi looked at Li An and said apologetically: "I'm sorry, there was nothing wrong with him originally." ā€

Li An was stunned for a moment, and then said with a smile: "The prince is serious, as long as it is something that our prince is willing to do, we who are subordinates will have no complaints, and even if there is, it is necessary for our prince to pay attention to proportion." ā€

Xiao Yanzhi scratched the corners of his mouth.

Why do you feel that you are still complaining about him?

"Kong Qing, come here and help the prince up." Li An beckoned to Kong Qing behind him.

Kong Qing glanced at Xiao Yan for a moment, and then stepped forward to help Pei Ze.

But the person was halfway up, but Kong Qing didn't move.

Li An looked at Kong Qing and asked, "Kong Qing, what are you doing?" ā€

Kong Qing said innocently: "I can't pull it." ā€

Li An frowned: "You haven't eaten at noon?" ā€

Kong Qing rolled his eyes and said, "No, the prince is holding something." ā€

When Li An heard this, he looked down and saw Pei Ze's hand tugging on Xiao Yanzhi's sleeve.

"Shu, King Shu?" Li An looked at Xiao Yanzhi at a loss.

Xiao Yanzhi supported his forehead.

Why tugging on his sleeve again!
