At this moment, there was a chaotic sound of footsteps coming from outside the big house, and one after another figures ran towards the big house, and then spread out in front of the big house and ran to both sides, looking in that direction as if to surround the big house.

Xiao Yanzhi secretly breathed a sigh of relief, sat up straight, picked up the cup of herbal tea in front of him, drank it all, and then put the teacup down unhurriedly.

The moment the teacup was taken off, the door of the big house was kicked open with a "bang", Pei Ze stepped into the door with a cold face, and Xu Lishan and Xu Liqian followed.

Needless to say, the winner has been decided.

Xiao Yanzhi smiled slightly, stood up slowly, and shook the hem of his clothes: "Thank you Lord Qin for your hospitality, although this cup of tea is not of the highest quality, it can barely be swallowed." ”

After saying that, Xiao Yanzhi strode towards Pei Ze, but when he walked in front of Pei Ze, he stopped, turned to look at Qin Tai and asked, "The official is not in business, Lord Qin should not have forgotten, right?" ”

Qin Tai suddenly sat up and made a big salute to Xiao Yanzhi.

"Remember the teachings of the prince."

The teacher was not good, Qin Tai failed to restrain Xiao Yanzhi, but was controlled by others, exposing his ambitions and his own power, although it is only the tip of the iceberg, it is heartbreaking to give up.

"That's good." Smiling slightly, Xiao Yanzhi took another step, walked out of the big house, and had already stepped out, but stopped again, turned to look at Qin Fengming, and said with a smile, "Qin Shaoqing, do you still remember what Fang said at the gate of Da'anfang?" Qin Shaoqing's charges against him are really confirmed. ”

When the words fell, Xiao Yanzhi smiled proudly, and left without waiting for Qin Fengming's answer.

If you dare to kidnap him, you must be prepared to pay a little price, even if you can't let Qin Tai fall, you have to make him suffer for ten days and half a month. As for Qin Fengming? Hey.

Pei Ze also looked at Qin Tai and said coldly: "Lord Qin, this matter of Da'anfang, please don't forget to write a book and submit it to Your Majesty." ”

"King Xie Wucheng mentioned." Qin Tai said goodbye again.

Pei Ze snorted coldly, looked at Qin Fengming in a blink of an eye, and said: "Today's account, this king will remember it for you, stay away from the king of Shu, otherwise this king wants you to look good!" ”

When the words fell, Pei Ze turned around and left with someone.

After turning around, Pei Ze looked at Xiao Yanzhi's back, and his face eased slightly.

It seems that Xiao Yanzhi suppressed Qin Tai, but he didn't know what method Xiao Yanzhi used.

After all the people brought by Pei Ze were evacuated, Qin Taicai straightened up and looked coldly at the direction where Xiao Yanzhi left.

"Father." Qin Fengren and Qin Fengming looked at Qin Tai at the same time, looking worried.

This Xiao Yanzhi's relationship with the other three seems to be good, he really doesn't seem to plan to join forces with the Qin family, so will he go to His Majesty and say that the Qin family is not?

Qin Tai looked at Qin Fengren, then at Qin Fengming, and suddenly raised his hand and slapped Qin Qingqing.

"Useless stuff! What did I ask you to do? ”

Qin Qingqing only heard a buzzing sound in his ears, and the scene in front of him suddenly blurred.

It seemed that she had long been accustomed to such things, Qin Qingqing gritted her teeth, turned her face straight, half-hung her head, bit her lip tightly, tears swirled in her eyes, but she couldn't help herself cry.

With a cold snort, Qin Tai once again set his eyes in the direction where Xiao Yanyi had left, and said coldly: "Ignorant junior, he can still treat his two imperial brothers as brothers now, in a few days, he will know what the Heavenly Family is ruthless, I want to see how long he can last, and when he comes to my Qin family for help, I will definitely ask him to repay today's loss!" Feng Ming, when I finish the things to be presented to His Majesty, you will bring these into the palace tonight to face the saint, and excuse yourself for the incident of colliding with the King of Shu during the day, understand? ”

Qin Fengming panicked, bowed his hand and said, "My son understands." ”

I thought it was a sure thing, he had just done a little too much, but he didn't expect that they couldn't control Xiao Yanzhi, but was bitten off a piece of meat, if he didn't enter the palace to ask for guilt, and when Xiao Yanzhi complained to the emperor, their losses would be more than this, especially he, the person who robbed the prince with his own hands, was going to be unlucky.

On the other side, Xiao Yanyi had already left Da'anfang and walked all the way north under the leadership of Xiao Yanzhi, who didn't know the way.

Catching up with Xiao Yanzhi, Pei Ze asked worriedly, "Are you okay?" ”

Hearing Pei Ze's voice, Xiao Yanzhi's unconscious footsteps suddenly stopped, and the breath he had been holding suddenly loosened, his legs became weak, and his body fell to the side.

"Xiao Yanzhi!" Pei Ze was startled, and hurriedly reached out to grab Xiao Yanzhi's arm, and pulled the person up and dragged him to the front with a forceful pull, "What's wrong?" ”

Xiao Yanzhi settled down, looked up at Pei Ze with a bitter face, and complained, "Can't you come earlier?" I almost couldn't hold it out! ”

If he waited for Qin Tai to calm down and fight back again, he would really be speechless.

He can be regarded as an empty-handed white blade, his heart is slightly shaken, and he must have no confidence when he speaks, and he has nothing in the first place, and if he loses his confidence so that people can see the weakness from his words, he really has no chance of winning at all.

It's also a shame that Qin Tai underestimated him, otherwise how could he fight the old fox rolling in the officialdom?

"Hurt?" Pei Ze asked nervously.

Xiao Yan replied with a serious face: "Well, my soul has been hurt by Yan zhòng. ”

Pei Ze was stunned, and then glared at Xiao Yan with a smile.

"Are you hurt?"

Xiao Yanzhi shook his head.

Pei Ze rolled his eyes and pushed Xiao Yanzhi out of his arms.

Xiao Yanzhi pursed his lips and stood up.

"Do you believe I'll come?"

When Li An said that Xiao Yanzhi trusted him, he really didn't believe it, but when he heard Xiao Yanzhi complain about why he didn't come earlier, his expression was clearly sure that he would come to save him, but he was not sure of the time, and because he believed that he would come, Xiao Yanzhi had enough confidence to suppress Qin Tai. Xiao Yanzhi never thought that he would ignore it?

Xiao Yanzhi looked at Pei Ze and smiled, and said, "Isn't the righteous brother here?" ”

"What if I don't come?" Pei Ze frowned.

Xiao Yanzhi tilted his head and thought about it, and said with a smile: "But you're here." ”

Pei Ze wanted to ask again, but Xu Lishan and Xu Liqian had already walked to their side.

"Big brother, are you okay?"

Xiao Yanzhi immediately regained his usual gentle smile, turned to look at the two of them and said, "I'm fine, and I'm going to give you a Mid-Autumn Festival gift." ”

Xu Lishan and Xu Liqian glanced at each other and asked puzzledly, "What is it?" ”

Xiao Yanzhi said: "Find out how many wealthy businessmen in Chang'an have good friends with Qin Tai, and when Qin Tai cuts off contact with them, he will immediately go and make friends." ”

Sell them a favor, hoping that they will make less trouble for him.

Xu Lishan's eyebrows frowned, and he asked suspiciously: "Didn't you say that officials don't do business?" ”

Xiao Yanzhi had just said this to Qin Tai, why did he turn his head and ask them to contact those merchants?

Xiao Yanzhi chuckled lightly and said, "I didn't let you go into business, I just let you make friends." ”

Xu Liqian's eyes rolled, he smiled, twisted his fingers and asked Xiao Yanzhi: "Is it good?" ”

"The Buddha said, don't say it." With a mysterious smile, Xiao Yanzhi turned around and walked forward.

Suddenly, seeing someone leading four horses to stand at the intersection not far away, Xiao Yanzhi turned his head to look at Pei Ze, and when he saw Pei Ze nodding, he knew that the person was their person.

Seeing Xiao Yanzhi coming towards him, Xu Ren looked at Xiao Yanzhi from head to toe four or five times with hesitation, and felt that Xiao Yanzhi was really not injured, so Xu Ren breathed a sigh of relief.

Xiao Yanzhi was not injured, and his guilt was lighter.

"Lord Wang......" Xu Ren looked at Pei Ze with a weak heart.

Pei Ze glanced at Xu Ren, and only waved his hand with a cold face.

Xu Ren understood, left the four horses and immediately disappeared.

Xiao Yanzhiquan didn't notice the subtle atmosphere between Pei Ze and Xu Ren, walked to the horse with a smile, touched a jujube red horse affectionately, and asked, "This horse is not the one that the second brother brought before, right?" ”

Pei Ze took two steps forward, stopped beside Xiao Yanzhi, and replied, "No, I brought it from my house." ”

"What about the second brother's horses? Those who look at them are good horses, but don't ask others to lead them. Xiao Yanzhi turned to look at Xu Lishan.

Xu Lishan said with a smile: "Big brother, don't worry, those horses have all shown their faces in front of people, and I am afraid that if I lead them around, I will let people see any clues, so I will ask people to lead them back to the house." ”

"That's good." Xiao Yanzhi breathed a sigh of relief, "Don't let me lose my horse." ”

patting the horse's head, Xiao Yanzhi suddenly smiled at Pei Ze and said, "Brother Yi, take me." ”

Pei Ze was stunned when he heard this, and looked at Xiao Yanzhi suspiciously.

Xu Lishan and Xu Liqian were also stunned, staring at Xiao Yanzhi's smiling face and looking at it, but they couldn't understand how Xiao Yanzhi could say this sentence so confidently.

A dignified seven-foot man, riding a horse and asking someone to carry it, is he embarrassed?

Thinking about whether Xiao Yanzhi would still be weak in his legs, Pei Ze didn't ask much, and after turning over and getting on the horse, he stretched out his hand to Xiao Yanzhi: "Come up." ”

Xiao Yanzhi smiled, grabbed Pei Ze's hand and was pulled on the horse by Pei Ze: "It's good to have a brother." ”

As soon as the words fell, Xiao Yanzhi unceremoniously lay on Pei Ze's back, as if he had no bones.

couldn't tell whether Xiao Yanzhi had other plans or was purely coquettish with Pei Ze, Xu Lishan and Xu Liqian each got on the horse with a subtle mood, but they couldn't help but always look at Pei Ze and Xiao Yanzhi.

Pei Ze tilted his head and stared at Xiao Yanzhi, and said coldly: "Sit well, don't fall." ”

"Brother Slow Down."

Pei Ze had no choice but to beat his horse and walk forward slowly.

After walking out of a paragraph, Xiao Yanzhi said to Pei Ze in a low voice: "I want to ask my righteous brother for a favor." ”

Pei Ze's eyes tightened, and he replied in a low voice: "You say." ”

Xiao Yanzhi sighed and said, "Brother Lao is tired of finding a trustworthy person to go to Jiangnan to pick up my younger brothers and sisters to come to Chang'an." ”

Pei Ze was stunned, and his eyes suddenly turned cold: "Qin Tai threatened you with them?" ”

"Well," Xiao Yanzhi's voice was lazy, sounding a little tired, "I originally thought that I might be able to go back soon, even if I can't go back for a while, they are safer in Jiangnan than following me, they are all children who grew up in the countryside, and when they come to Chang'an City, they will only be deceived by others." But now it seems that everyone in Chang'an City is more capable than me, and all of them are powerful and powerful. ”

Pei Ze's eyebrows frowned, and he asked after a while, "Do you believe me?" ”

Xiao Yanzhi chuckled lightly and said, "The lives of the four of our brothers and sisters can be handed over to the righteous brother for safekeeping." ”

In this Chang'an City, there are only two people who can be trusted by him for the time being, one is the emperor, and the other is Pei Ze.

The emperor is his biological father, and it seems that he treats him well, and can indulge his innocuous "offenses", and he sincerely cares for him and takes care of him, but he will not take care of his younger siblings.

And the only person who takes good care of him is Pei Ze except for the emperor, although he still can't figure out what Pei Ze is doing to take care of him again and again, but he is willing to break into the Liangyi Palace at night for him to risk the crime of killing his head, based on this alone, he feels that he may be able to rely on Pei Ze occasionally. Moreover, the reputation of King Wucheng of the Tang State for his integrity, frankness, loyalty, righteousness and courage is well-known, and the people gave Pei Ze a good name, Thaksin.

And I don't know if it's because of the number of times he shares the bed, he always feels that Pei Ze is much more kind recently.

After listening to Xiao Yanzhi's answer, Pei Ze turned around and looked at Xiao Yanzhi, then turned back and said solemnly: "Tomorrow, I will arrange for someone to leave for Jiangnan, and I will let you meet after I pick it up and settle it down." ”

"Thank you, brother." Xiao Yanzhi smiled, "I'll write a letter when I go back to the palace later, and my brother will let me take it, and my younger brother will follow honestly when he sees the letter." ”

Hearing this, Pei Ze raised his eyebrows and said curiously: "If there is no letter, they won't come?" ”

Xiao Yanzhi said proudly: "You can't trust strangers, you can't go with strangers, didn't your mother teach you when you were young?" ”

Pei Ze was stunned, then shook his head and smiled.

Here Xiao Yanzhi and Pei Ze rode together, talking to each other affectionately, and from time to time you could see a rare smile on Pei Ze's face, and Xu Lishan over there saw that his eyes were about to pop out and stick to Xiao Yanzhi and Pei Ze.

Maybe I have seen too much life and death on the battlefield, Brother Pei has an indifferent temperament, and it has always been difficult to get close to people, and most of today's friends are also former comrades-in-arms, and they are all friendships that can be trusted with their lives, so when they laugh with these people, Brother Pei will occasionally laugh, and only occasionally, but today Brother Pei's smile is unexpectedly a lot, and every time he laughs, it is because of Xiao Yanzhi.

Although he had discussed with Brother Pei about having a good relationship with Xiao Yanzhi in order to find out Xiao Yanzhi's true purpose, was Brother Pei's actions too fast? That's a bit too close, isn't it? Is this what you can do?

Xu Liqian also noticed Pei Ze's abnormality, although he was also curious about when Pei Ze became so close to Xiao Yanzhi, but Xu Liqian wanted to know more about what Xu Lishan was thinking now.

Rolling his eyes, Xu Liqian opened his mouth and said in a low voice: "Obviously our eldest brother, why did he get intimate with King Wucheng first?" ”

Xu Lishan's eyes flashed, and he didn't answer.

Xu Liqian smiled secretly, and said: "It seems that it takes a long time to be able to have love, we have only been with the eldest brother for less than half a month, and it must not be compared with King Wucheng's year." If you think about it carefully, the year of chasing and escaping between the two of them is also a process where you can get to know each other. If the eldest brother didn't understand King Wu Cheng's thoughts, how could he escape? If King Wucheng can't guess the thoughts of the eldest brother, how can he catch it? Tsk, I knew this was the case, I took over this task at the beginning, not only to be able to follow the eldest brother around the world, but also to contact the brother's feelings, how good? ”

Xu Lishan gritted his teeth secretly.

What's the use of Xu Liqian saying this now? What did he think when his father mentioned this? If he can come out, why should Brother Pei go on this trip in person?

Xiao Yanzhi, who was sitting behind Pei Ze, suddenly shuddered.

"What's wrong?" The back of Xiao Yanzhi's chest, which was close to Xiao Yan's chest, obviously felt Xiao Yanzhi's trembling, Pei Ze tilted his head and asked in a low voice.

Xiao Yanzhi looked around and wondered, "Why do I feel as if there is a murderous aura." ”

As soon as he heard this, Pei Ze immediately looked around nervously, and turned the horse's head to look carefully at the rear.

"Nobody."

Noticing Xu Lishan's slightly gloomy face, Xiao Yan's heart was clear, and he said with a smile: "I didn't say that there are assassins, there are righteous brothers here, who dares to assassinate without a long eye?" Don't die. ”

"Where did the murderous aura come from without an assassin?" Pei Zehu looked at Xiao Yanzhi suspiciously.

Xiao Yanzhi is playing him again, right?

Xiao Yanzhi rolled his eyes: "Sluggish." ”

After speaking, he lay on Pei Ze's back and closed his eyes to recuperate.

Riding a horse is a body that can tire people to death, especially when riding alone, not only do you have to suffer from bumps, but also always be vigilant and carefully control the horse, every time you get off the horse, Xiao Yanzhi feels physically and mentally exhausted, it is rare that he only needs to grasp Pei Ze tightly, of course, he has to relax and enjoy.

However, as soon as Xiao Yanzhi leaned on this, Xu Lishan's eyes became two points colder.

It's not a woman, what is Xiao Yanzhi doing leaning on Brother Pei? And don't be afraid to make people laugh!

Of course, what made Xu Lishan care more was Pei Ze's connivance.

In this world, the last person he wants to be an enemy is Brother Pei, Brother Pei must not ruin the brotherhood between the two of them for an unscrupulous person who appeared out of nowhere......

No one made a mess, the way back to the palace was very smooth, and after returning to the Wanchun Hall alone, Xiao Yanzhi excused himself to take a nap and locked himself in the bedroom.

Sitting on the edge of the bed, there was no one around him, Lian Sheng and Xiushui were standing outside the door, but they didn't make any sound, in such silence, Xiao Yanzhi's hand trembled slightly, and his heartbeat suddenly accelerated, so fast that Xiao Yanzhi was a little uncomfortable.

Darn! When he learned that the emperor was going to take him back to the palace, he only thought about what the emperor and several princes would do to him, and completely ignored the civil and military ministers of the Manchu Dynasty, and he forgot that it was not only the prince who could benefit from the throne, but also those ministers who clinged to the prince were also looking forward to following the prince he chose to ascend to the sky......

Fortunately, Qin Tai only found out where his younger siblings were, and did not arrest them, if Pei Ze could bring his younger siblings back to Chang'an before Qin Tai or others, it would be fine, but if he couldn't catch up......

Sure enough, he still can't just sit still, even if he has no intention of getting involved in those power struggles, he must have the ability to protect his younger siblings, otherwise if he encounters a situation like today, he can still only pretend and deceive others, but he can't deceive himself. At the very least, we should be able to give our younger siblings a safe place to hide in the event of a major incident.

After settling down, Xiao Yanzhi's hands no longer trembled, and in the silent room, Xiao Yanzhi sat motionless on the edge of the bed, thinking about how to move next.

The time was approaching, and Xiao Yanzhi's thoughts were interrupted by a knock on the door.

"Your Highness, are you up?"

Xiao Yanzhi came back to his senses suddenly, turned around and wiped the bed with his hand, and then tore off the quilt and shook it casually, looking as if someone had slept before responding.

"I'm awake."

Hearing Xiao Yanzhi's answer, Xiushui and Lian Sheng pushed the door in.

Lian Sheng smiled and said: "Your Highness, today's palace banquet will start and be arranged in the Forbidden Garden, if Your Highness changes his clothes now, he will probably be able to arrive earlier, so as not to be too flustered, Your Highness, what ......do you think?" ”

Xiao Yanzhi smiled and said, "Just listen to the winning streak." ”

"Great!" The smile on Lian Sheng's face immediately became brighter, "That slave maid is waiting for His Highness to change clothes?" ”

Xiao Yanzhi nodded and stood up.

Changing into a purple sandalwood dress, Xiao Yanzhi casually glanced at the bronze mirror, but he didn't see his appearance clearly, so he asked Lian Sheng: "Who will be there at today's palace banquet?" ”

Lian Sheng had already inquired, and as soon as he heard Xiao Yanzhi's question, he immediately replied: "If you go back to Your Highness, Your Majesty will order all the palace concubines, princes and princesses to go to the banquet today, presumably because you want everyone in the harem to recognize Your Highness, otherwise such a family banquet, Your Majesty will usually only let some people go to the banquet." ”

Xiao Yan was stunned, twitched the corners of his mouth and asked, "In the harem...... How many palace concubines are there? ”

Lian Sheng was stunned for a moment, and replied blankly: "Your Highness forgives your sins, this slave really doesn't know." ”

There is one more concubine in the harem today, and one less tomorrow, even the old man who has served in the harem for decades can't remember the number.

The unknown in Lian Sheng's mouth sounded no different from countless in Xiao Yanzhi's ears, and it was depressing.

Seeing that Xiao Yanzhi didn't look very happy, Lian Sheng said: "But Your Highness, don't worry, even if all the palace concubines go, there will be about a dozen people who can show their faces in front of Your Highness, and the rest of the positions are insufficient, so I will say hello to you with the big guy, and then retreat to an inconspicuous place." ”

Zhao Kang mentioned it before, Lian Sheng didn't dare to guess Xiao Yanzhi's meaning compared to the thoughts of other princes, and after a few days, he really saw Xiao Yanzhi's preferences, and the others were okay to say, but this place where Xijing was afraid of trouble was called Lian Sheng's heart.

"That's right."

Sure enough, when Lian Sheng said this, Xiao Yanzhi looked relieved.

After tidying up Xiao Yanzhi's hair crown, Xiushui added: "In addition to the second and third highnesses, there is only one eight-year-old fourth highness in the palace, there are three princesses, the eldest princess Qingwan is fourteen years old and is a quiet one, the second princess Princess Mingyue is slightly more lively, nine years old this year, and the third princess Princess Jingle is only four years old. ”

Xiao Yanzhi was stunned when he heard this, and then said worriedly: "When we met for the first time today, I didn't prepare gifts for my younger siblings, how can this be good?" ”

He also thought that the emperor had been busy fighting all these years, and in addition to Xu Lishan and Xu Liqian, he would have one more daughter at most, but why did four people pop up all of a sudden? The emperor's life during the war was also quite colorful.

Lian Sheng and Xiushui glanced at each other, Xiushui turned around and went to the side room, Lian Sheng smiled and said to Xiao Yanzhi: "The palace doesn't pay attention to this meeting gift, Your Highness, your status is noble, and the rest of the people are thinking about what kind of meeting gift they should give you to please you, you don't have to give it and no one can find out if you are not here, but the slaves and maids thought that His Highness might care about this, so they prepared some." ”

"What did you prepare?" Xiao Yanzhi looked at the winning streak in surprise.

The winning streak in the past few days is much smarter than before, and the work is more in line with his heart, I don't know if someone mentioned it, or if he figured it out himself.

Xiushui and the other two palace maids walked back to Xiao Yanzhi with four boxes in their arms, and said with a smile: "It is said that it was prepared by the slaves and maids, but these are actually His Highness's things." Your Highness must not remember, on the day you first came to the Wanchun Palace, Your Majesty rewarded you with two boxes of things, but you didn't even look at them, and only let the slaves and maids keep them, and then you didn't ask again. ”

Lian Sheng hurriedly continued: "The slaves and maids didn't expect to give a gift, but by chance I heard the little eunuchs muttering that they didn't know who to give a gift, and the slave and maid returned to Wanchun Hall and Xiushui said this, Xiushui remembered this, and said that our palace does not pay attention to these, but His Royal Highness is from outside the palace, and if he cares, the slaves and maids took matters into their own hands, opened the two boxes, and picked out four objects. Without His Highness's permission, the slaves and maidservants were willing to be punished. ”

As he spoke, Lian Sheng and Xiushui led people to kneel down in front of Xiao Yanzhi.

Seeing this scene, Xiao Yanzhi smiled and said, "You guys, I won't punish you if you are right." Get up. Open the box and I'll see what you've picked out. ”

He never wanted to be the master of Wanchun Palace, nor did he want to become Lian Sheng and Xiushui and others, so he has never established rules, Lian Sheng and most of them do things according to the general rules in this palace, but after doing it, he has to look at his face to judge his rules and habits, and he himself is a person without rules, so that there seems to be more and more no rules of respect and humility in this Wanchun Palace.

It's good to scatter like this, in this way, when others see that Wanchun Hall has no rules, they will think that he is an incapable person, anyway, he doesn't want to cultivate one or two henchmen in Wanchun Palace.

The people in the palace don't need to use it if they can...... Pei Ze is an exception.

Xiao Yanzhi's kung fu, Xiushui had already opened the four boxes, Xiao Yanzhi took a closer look, and saw that the boxes contained objects such as the four treasures of the study, which were decent gifts, because they were all sent by the emperor, so the quality of those things was not bad, and they could still be handled.

"You have helped me a lot," Xiao Yanzhi smiled and closed the four boxes one by one, "You don't have to take this box to the banquet, Xiushui, you estimate the time, and when the palace banquet is over, you will send it to the younger brothers and sisters." In addition, prepare three more other items, and make up for King Wucheng and the two imperial brothers, who are also brothers, and it is not good to favor one over the other. ”

"Yes, Your Highness." Xiushui waved her hand, and the two palace maids who followed her hugged the box.

Ready, Xiao Yanzhi went out with Lian Sheng and He Yan, and before he stepped out of the Wanchun Palace, he saw the shoulder he saw when he first entered the palace.

The corners of Xiao Yanzhi's mouth trembled, and he asked Lian Sheng, "I have to sit here?" ”

No matter how many times he watched it, he didn't like this uncovered shoulder, especially if it was still carried by manpower, so he didn't want to sit even more.

Lian Sheng nodded and smiled: "Yes, Your Highness, the Forbidden Garden is in the northwest direction of the harem, not too far away, but not close, if you walk to avoid exhaustion, the palace banquet in the evening does not know when it will end, Your Highness, you have to save some energy." ”

Xiao Yanzhi frowned and asked, "Can't you ride a horse from outside the palace?" ”

"Uh...... This is really unprecedented. Lian Sheng was a little embarrassed, and sent a look for help to He Yan, but He Yan ignored it completely, "The people who live in the palace want to go to the Forbidden Garden, and they all go like this." ”

"No precedent?" Xiao Yanzhi rolled his eyes, and suddenly smiled evilly, "Where is the nearest palace gate?" Let's go out of the palace. ”

It's just that there is no precedent, and he didn't say that it is not allowed, so he will set a precedent?

"Huh?" Lian Sheng was stunned when he heard this, "Your Highness, this, isn't this okay?" ”

"What's so bad?" Thinking of a good way, Xiao Yanzhi stepped out of the Wanchun Hall in a good mood, and strode past the shoulder and the four little eunuchs guarding the shoulder, all the way to the south, "He Yan, do you know where to get a horse?" ”

"I'm going to lead the horse, and I ask Your Highness to wait in front of Changle Gate for a while."

He Yan didn't panic like Lian Sheng, anyway, it was Xiao Yanzhi who made the decision, even if he upset the emperor, he couldn't blame him He Yan's head, Xiao Yanzhi didn't panic, what was he panicking about?

"Then I'll wait for you!" Shouting at He Yan's back, Xiao Yanzhi had a sense of excitement eager to try.

I don't know where He Yan borrowed the horse, but when Xiao Yanzhi and Lian Sheng arrived at Changle Gate, He Yan was already waiting there with three horses.

"Well done!" Xiao Yanzhi quickened his pace and walked to the side of the horse, and jumped up as soon as he pressed the saddle with his hand, "Where are you going?" ”

He Yan followed and turned over on the horse, and his movements were very neat: "Go west, turn north when you leave Anfumen." ”

"Good!" Xiao Yanzhi raised his whip and urged the horse, galloped out, and added, "If I make a mistake, remember to remind me!" ”

He Yan raised the whip for a pause, and then threw off the horsewhip and followed closely behind Xiao Yan.

As soon as he climbed on the horse, the winning streak had not yet sat down, and he saw that Xiao Yanzhi and He Yan had already run a long way, and they all cried when they boarded.

"Your Highness, you wait for the slave!"

He's just an ordinary eunuch, and he hasn't learned to ride a horse!

No matter how hard Lian Sheng complained in his heart, Xiao Yanzhi and He Yan, who were in a good mood with the wind, galloped all the way, and completed the distance that usually takes more than an hour to complete in less than two quarters of an hour.

Galloping to the end, Xiao Yanzhi pulled the reins violently, and the front hooves of the horse under the seat were raised, and there was a beautiful emergency stop, and the handsome and chic appearance made several palace concubines who happened to come to the Forbidden Garden at the same time look at it, and they all guessed where this was a beautiful man.

Stopping the horse, turning his head to look back, Xiao Yanzhi found that the winning streak was gone.

"He Yan, what about the streak?"

He Yan hadn't ridden so briskly for a long time, and when he was enjoying the aftertaste, he heard Xiao Yanzhi's question, and when he turned his head to look at it, he was shocked.

"Humble ...... Go back and look for it. "What a disappointment......

"Then I'll wait for you here." Smiling awkwardly, Xiao Yanzhi turned over and dismounted.

The guards guarding the forbidden garden had never seen Xiao Yanzhi, but when they saw Xiao Yanzhi's clothes, they immediately thought of the eldest prince and the new king of Shu who had just entered the palace, so someone immediately stepped forward to ask for peace, and then took Xiao Yanzhi's horse away and placed it in a good place.

Xiao Yanzhi leaned on the wooden fence that served as the gate of the forbidden garden, smelling the aroma of plants and trees coming with the wind, looking at the direction of the setting sun, and feeling comfortable.

When I closed my eyes, I could still see the warm halo of the sunset, and I thought I was back by the stream in the south of the Yangtze River when I shook my head slightly.

In Jiangnan, the house they live in is not big, unlike the palace, everything is the best, but there is no shortage of daily needs.

He himself likes a simple life, but his simplicity may be poverty in the eyes of his younger siblings, and he can't bear to let the ignorant siblings suffer this undeservedly, but he doesn't want to let the rich deprive them of their simple life, so he only takes his younger siblings to find a quiet town to settle down, buy a small but sturdy house, most of the neighbors are local small businessmen, simple and educated, and then buy a small but excellent location store, sell some home-brewed wine, and make money without too much, enough for them to have meat to eat every day, change the seasons and have clothes to wear, It's enough to buy books for Ren'an, snacks for Xiangsheng, and fat powder for Junmeng.

In Jiangnan, they crow every day and the sunset rests, and the younger siblings take care of the business in the store during the day, close the shop when the sun sets, go to the suburban river with the sunset fishing, Jun Meng and Xiangsheng always can't sit still, can't catch fish, simply let them dig wild vegetables, and after a dinner fishing, they go home, the youngest sister Junmeng cooks rice, the eldest brother Ren'an settles accounts, he and the second brother Xiangsheng go to the cellar to see the wine.

……

Thinking of his younger siblings who were far away in Jiangnan, even if his eyes were closed, he could find a gentle smile on Xiao Yanzhi's face, which made people passing by couldn't help but stop and look at each other, secretly guessing Xiao Yanzhi's identity, but he was even more curious about what he thought of to smile so gently.

When Pei Ze and Xu Lishan arrived, they saw small sedan chairs of different shapes parked in front of the Forbidden Garden, and they looked like small sedan chairs used by the harem concubines, but everyone arrived, and they didn't go to the Forbidden Garden, what were they doing outside?

Xu Lishan looked around curiously, this look was a flash, and when he came back to his senses, he immediately understood why there were so many small sedan chairs parked in front of the Forbidden Garden.

There was a handsome and handsome man standing in front of the Forbidden Garden, how could these palace concubines who couldn't see other men except their father not stop and take a good look?

"Brother Pei, the eldest brother is over there."

As soon as he heard this, Pei Zehuo, who was still recuperating with his eyes closed, opened his eyes, sat up straight and looked ahead, and when he saw Xiao Yanzhi basking in the sunset with a comfortable face, Pei Ze hated the root of his teeth.

Xiao Yanzhi participated in the palace banquet for the first time, Pei Ze was worried that Xiao Yanzhi would be afraid, and when he set off to the Forbidden Garden, he also went to the Wanchun Palace to find Xiao Yanzhi, but he didn't think that when he and Xu Lishan arrived, Xiao Yanzhi had already left the Wanchun Palace, Pei Ze specially ordered the little eunuch who raised his shoulders to go quickly, thinking that it would be good if he caught up halfway, but let alone halfway, everyone else was here, but he didn't even catch up with Xiao Yanzhi's shadow, and he was worried about whether something happened to this person, but he saw that the other party was standing in front of the Forbidden Garden to bask in the sunset, and many people stopped to watch...... Co-authored him worried in vain?

Without waiting for the little eunuch to put his shoulder on the ground, Pei Ze rolled down from the side of his shoulder and strode in the direction of Xiao Yanzhi.

"Your Highness came down so early!"

Pei Ze's shout not only woke up Xiao Yanzhi in his dream, but also frightened the palace concubines who were looking at Xiao Yanzhi in a daze.

Your Highness? Who? Which is His Highness?

Xiao Yanzhi turned his head when he heard this, and before the tenderness in his expression was gone, he turned his head and smiled at Pei Ze.

"Brother-in-law...... and the second emperor brother are also here. ”

Xiao Yanzhi turned his head, and the palace concubines were immediately shocked into a cold sweat, and they put down the sedan curtain one after another, urging the sedan chair man to carry them into the forbidden garden quickly.

It's a pity, if that person is a guard of the palace, they can still find a way to come to them, even if they can only look at it every day, it is pleasing to the eye, but how can it be so handsome that he can't die is His Royal Highness who has been spreading so much recently? Whether it is appearance or temperament, it is not similar to the other two highnesses, and it is not very similar to His Majesty, how can it be His Highness?

But that smile just now is really good-looking...... The side face that doesn't smile looks good, too!

Seeing the small sedan chair hurriedly entering the Forbidden Garden, Pei Ze snorted coldly.

"When did Your Highness arrive?" Standing in front of Xiao Yanzhi, Pei Ze glared at Xiao Yanzhi coldly.

Xiao Yanzhi scratched the corners of his mouth innocently, not understanding why he was stared at.

Wasn't it okay when they went back to the palace together before? After only such a while, he didn't meet Pei Ze, why did he provoke him again?

"I've been there for a while...... bar. ”

is worthy of being a general, Pei Ze's eyes are really quite courageous, and he is a little scared.

Xu Lishan also stopped in front of Xiao Yanzhi and asked suspiciously, "Why did the imperial brother come so early?" My brother and I also went to Wanchun Hall to look for you, and I didn't see you on the way here, which way did you go, brother? ”

"You're looking for me?" Xiao Yanzhi smiled, "I took a long detour, and after leaving the palace, I came on horseback." ”

"Horseback riding?" Xu Lishan's eyes widened when he heard this, "Why, why did you come here on horseback?" ”

"Well, I came on horseback."

Seeing Xu Lishan's stunned face, Xiao Yanzhi felt a sense of accomplishment.

Pei Ze still had a cold face, and asked again: "Why don't you go in since you're here?" ”

He also stood at the door, was he afraid that others would not see him?

"Ah...... This one," Xiao Yanzhi scratched the corners of his mouth in embarrassment, "I'll go in after a while, and the righteous brother and the second emperor brother will go in first." ”

Xu Lishan asked puzzledly, "What?" Is the royal brother still waiting for someone? Speaking of which, why is the royal brother standing here alone? Didn't bring anyone out? ”

Xiao Yanzhi looked away from afar, and said embarrassedly: "When I came on horseback, I ran too fast and lost my winning streak." ”

Hearing this, Xu Lishan and Pei Ze didn't know what to say from the bottom of their hearts.

Can Xiao Yanzhi do things more outrageously?

Just as he was talking about the winning streak, Xiao Yanzhi saw He Yan sitting helplessly on the horse's back and scurrying over, holding the reins of the horse of the winning streak, and the whole person was lying on the horse's back, holding the horse's neck with both hands.

Xiao Yan felt guilty in his heart, raised his foot and crossed Pei Ze and Xu Lishan to greet him.

"Winning streak!"

Seeing Xiao Yanzhi coming, He Yan asked the two horses to stop, and then turned over and dismounted, not bothering to look at Lian Sheng.

If you don't know how to ride a horse, you don't say it early, it's embarrassing!

"Streak, are you alright?" Xiao Yanzhi stood beside Lian Sheng's side and gently patted Lian Sheng's back.

"Your Highness...... The slave didn't expect horseback riding to be such a scary thing......" Lian Sheng turned his head to look at Xiao Yanzhi, with tears on his face.

Xiao Yanzhi felt that Lian Sheng's current appearance was very funny, but he felt that it was not too kind to laugh, so he coughed lightly to suppress his laughter, and tried to make a concerned appearance and asked Lian Sheng: "Why didn't you say it earlier if you don't know how to ride a horse?" Can you get down? I'll help you. ”

"Your Highness," He Yan walked to Xiao Yanzhi's side at some point, and when he heard that Xiao Yanzhi was going to personally help Lian Sheng dismount, he immediately stopped him, "Let the lowly post come." ”

Without waiting for Xiao Yanzhi to reply, He Yan said again: "King Wucheng and His Second Highness are still watching over there. ”

Xiao Yan was stunned, so he stepped back and gave up his position to He Yan.

Although I don't know why those two people can't be good for Lian Sheng when they look at him, since He Yan said get out of the way, then get out of the way.

As a result, He Yan glanced at Lian Sheng, raised his hand and grabbed the clothes on Lian Sheng's back and pulled Lian Sheng off the horse, so frightened that Lian Sheng screamed.

"Oh my god!"

This scream, which can be called a miserable scream, came too suddenly, and Xiao Yanzhi shuddered violently.

The eunuch's voice is really thin enough, and even if he wins this high pitch, he can go to singing.

Lian Sheng, who was ripped off, subconsciously hugged He Yan, hugged him tightly, stared at He Yan with tears in his eyes, his lips trembled and opened and closed, but he was so frightened that he couldn't even complain or accuse.

Is this He Yan not sympathetic at all? He has been scared so that his legs are weak, can't He Yan be gentle with him anymore?!

Rubbed with tears and snot, He Yan glared at Lian Sheng with disgust, and said coldly: "Look at what the great eunuchs in other palaces look like, and then look at yourself?" Don't embarrass Your Highness outside, stand up for yourself! ”

Lian Sheng looked around when he heard this, and sure enough, he saw that the big eunuchs of the Daji Hall and the Lizheng Hall were standing behind their masters, one standing taller than the other, and then looking at the big eunuchs who followed behind the other palace concubines, all of them looked like dogs.

Lian Sheng suddenly realized that he was no longer a miscellaneous eunuch who had to look at people's faces everywhere in the court, no matter what kind of mood His Majesty had chosen these inferior slaves and maids to take care of His Highness, since they had been lifted to their current position, they should make a difference, no matter whether others said that they had taken shit luck or that they sparrows had turned into phoenixes, since they had entered the Wanchun Palace, they had to learn to straighten their waists!

Lian Sheng's eyes changed slightly, he raised his hand and wiped his face with his sleeve, and after taking a deep breath, he stood straight beside He Yan.

Xiao Yanzhi raised his eyebrows and looked at He Yan's cold side face, and he really couldn't tell whether He Yan reminded Lian Sheng because he felt that he was also embarrassed, or whether he really wanted outsiders to look up to Wanchun Palace. Looking at Lian Sheng's firm expression, it is not difficult for Xiao Yanzhi to guess what kind of inspirational drama Lian Sheng directed and acted in his heart.

But in fact, he didn't care about Wanchun Palace's face or anything, anyway, he was from the countryside, what could he do? None of the people in this palace have anything to do with him, so what can they do if they all look down on him?

Shaking his head helplessly and smiling, Xiao Yanzhi patted Lian Sheng's shoulder and said, "If Lian Sheng is unwell, go back and rest, I will also frighten you along the way, just have Yan by my side." ”

Lian Sheng shook his head and said firmly: "The slave is fine, the slave and the maid will not go back." ”

"Don't push yourself too hard." patted Lian Sheng's head again, and Xiao Yanzhi walked towards the gate of the Forbidden Garden.

Seeing Xiao Yanzhi walking in front of him, Pei Ze, who had always had a cold face, still said with a cold face: "Your Highness's business is done?" Can you go in? ”

Xiao Yanzhi blinked, nodded and said, "Ah...... Yes. ”

didn't let him wait, since he was so reluctant, why did he have to wait for him to go with him? Isn't it over when you go in with Xu Lishan?

Pei Ze stared at Xiao Yanzhi, who couldn't figure out the situation, and suddenly said: "Don't be too nice to people, pay attention to the prince's prestige." ”

Xiao Yan was stunned, then smiled and said, "How lonely is that?" ”

When the words fell, Xiao Yanzhi raised his feet and entered the Forbidden Garden.
