Situ Ce was also surprised, he was not interested in the candidates for this competition with Mingyue Kingdom, but he heard Ji Qiu say that Ye Zitong was also involved, so he came to see what was going on.
"The next one is Ye Zitong from the Red Sleeve Village." The attendant on the side immediately read.
As soon as Ye Zitong stood up, he immediately caused a burst of surprise among the surrounding officials, this young man had a tender face and white skin, and he was born with pink makeup, he was as delicate as a girl, and it was hard to believe that he could defeat the group and become one of the three masters who faced Mingyue.
Xiao Wang Li Zhen was also a little surprised when he saw Ye Zitong, but he saw Situ Ce leaning forward and whispered a few words beside him. King Xiao immediately smiled: "I see, the people of your Situ family are always a little unexpected. ”
Several officials around him were a little inexplicable when they heard King Xiao's words, and they all speculated about the meaning of King Xiao's words, but Liu Mu sat on the chair quietly, with a calm expression on his face.
King Xiao smiled and said loudly: "I am happy today, let the imperial kitchen set up the Four Scenic Gardens, and I will feast on all Aiqing tonight." ”
The Four Scenic Gardens are located in the mountains behind the East Hall of the Imperial Palace, and are called the Four Scenic Gardens because of their natural mountain stones, bamboo trees in the forest, small bridges and pavilions, and strange flowers and plants in the palace.
In their spare time, King Xiao and the imperial relatives in the palace often drink and enjoy here, and occasionally feast here to celebrate some joyful things.
In the Four Scenic Gardens, in addition to the second prince Li Ye, the eldest prince Li De, the third prince Li Cheng, and the fourth prince Li Yuan also appeared in turn. The eldest prince Li De is slightly taller, with a small beard on his lips, and his face is very similar to Li Ye. But it is much more mature and stable than Li Ye. His two younger brothers, Li Cheng and Li Yuan, are younger and seem a little immature, but the third prince is silent, while the fourth prince is more outgoing and lively.
On such an occasion, it is natural that the Linglong princess who loves to join in the fun is indispensable. When her brothers saw her, they all frowned slightly. The rest of the officials also changed color on their faces, and they lowered their heads one after another, for fear that the girl would take a fancy to them and come up with some way to play tricks. King Xiao just looked at this troublesome little daughter with a caring and loving smile on his face.
As soon as Princess Linglong came, she clamored to see the three masters who represented Xiao Guo's competition. When she saw Ye Zitong, she was obviously a little surprised, frowned and said, "How did you become like this?" ”
When others heard this, they were all a little surprised, how could Princess Linglong know this delicate young man? Li Ye also had a puzzled face. was about to open his mouth to ask his sister, but he saw Princess Linglong pull Ye Zitong's hand and said, "It's not fun, you come with me." ”
The officials were taken aback, Princess Linglong was the proud daughter of the sky, but she went to pull the hand of a folk boy, which is inconsistent with Xiao Guo and the law, let alone in the palace. Attention is on the moment. But seeing that King Xiao was still smiling and sipping wine, he didn't seem to care about the qiē in front of him. Everyone couldn't help but wonder, could it be that King Xiao took a fancy to this kid. Have you made him a colt? If that's the case, you'll have to talk about it later.
Li Ye saw Princess Linglong pulling Ye Zitong away, knowing that she was stubborn again, at this time King Xiao and Baiguan were at the table, he didn't want to leave without permission, so he had to watch the two disappear at the gate of Jingyuan. The rest of the people saw that Princess Linglong was gone. They are all relieved, where do they still have the heart to care where she goes.
"Where have you been these two days? It's suffocating me. Princess Linglong pulled Ye Zitong to a flower pavilion and immediately asked impatiently.
Ye Zitong didn't hide it from her. After listening to it, Princess Linglong opened her eyes wide, and her face was full of excitement: "It turns out that there is such a fun thing, I don't know it." Hmph, the second brother is really not interesting, he went secretly alone, and he didn't come to call me. ”
At this time, a palace maid cautiously walked into the pavilion and said respectfully: "Your Royal Highness Princess, the queen invites you to go to Dongci Palace." ”
Princess Linglong frowned slightly when she heard this: "The queen mother is looking for me?" Something will happen, it won't be to lecture me again. After that, he glanced at the palace maid: "How did the queen mother know that I was here?" Is it your whistleblower? With that, he raised his hand and shook his fist to fight.
When the maid saw that she was angry, she fell to her knees in fright, and trembled all over.
Ye Zitong saw that Princess Linglong had relapsed again, and was about to stop it. But Princess Linglong suddenly stopped and smiled: "I'll spare you this time." After that, he withdrew his fist and grabbed Ye Zitong's hand: "It's very boring to talk to the queen mother, why don't you go with me." Without saying anything, he pulled her and left.
Ye Zitong didn't have time to refuse, so he was dragged out of the flower pavilion by Princess Linglong, and couldn't help shaking her head slightly, this Princess Linglong is rude and willful, she does everything her own way, and she doesn't ask other people's opinions at all. But this is also a reflection of her temperament, I'm afraid that in most palaces, there are few such lively and straightforward princesses.
Princess Linglong took Ye Zitong to run like flying, and in a blink of an eye, she bypassed a few gardens, only to tire out a large number of palace maids and maids who followed behind her. Although the two of them didn't feel it, the people behind them were complaining bitterly, running out of breath one by one, but they didn't dare to shout that they were running slowly, so they could only grit their teeth and hold on.
Princess Linglong and Ye Zitong came to a majestic palace, and finally stopped, and everyone behind them took a breath. This palace is exquisitely decorated, carved with dragon and phoenix patterns everywhere, it is the largest building in the Xiao Imperial Palace in addition to the Zhenghe Palace, that is, the Dongci Palace, the sleeping palace of the emperor and the empress.
The inner courtyard of Dongci Palace.
"Queen Mother, Linglong is here." Princess Linglong jumped into an inner house, causing a beautiful lady sitting on the couch to frown slightly.
"Long'er, looking at your crazy appearance, why can't you be as decent as your sisters."
It was Linglong's biological mother, Zhuang Xiuci, the queen of Xiaoguo, who spoke correctly, but she saw her looking at Princess Linglong with a strange face, and her face was slightly blamed.
Princess Linglong listened to her mother's words, and didn't care at all, pouting: "I don't learn from them, if I were to become like that, I would have been annoyed to death." ”
Ye Zitong secretly laughed when she listened: "This is the same tone as her brother." ”
Only then did Queen Zhuang see that there was still a person standing next to Princess Linglong, and she couldn't help frowning and said, "Linglong, you are really getting more and more disagreeable, how can you bring outsiders in at will." ”
Princess Linglong hurriedly pleaded: "She is not an outsider. She....... Halfway through speaking, his eyes suddenly rolled, as if he had a brilliant idea, and changed his words: "He is the master of the decisive battle with Mingyue Kingdom selected by his father, and he is also the husband that his father ordered to the child." ”
"Huh?. What the? Empress Zhuang and Ye Zitong called out almost at the same time. But I saw that Queen Zhuang was surprised, and her eyes were full of surprise.
Ye Zitong was also taken aback, this unruly girl dared to make any joke.
"Long'er, do you know what you're talking about." How could Queen Zhuang believe that this ghost girl. has always been eccentric, except for her father, no one has ever been in her way.
"I kid you not." Princess Linglong said: "My father held a banquet in Sijing Garden today to announce this matter. ”
"Is that really the case?" Empress Zhuang muttered to herself: "No wonder the emperor sent someone to invite me to Sijing Garden, but I am not very well." So I excused myself. ”
"But, why didn't the emperor tell me about it?" Queen Zhuang was full of doubts, and looked at Princess Linglong again, but saw that Ai'er had a stern face, and her expression was surprisingly serious.
"This is just set by my father, and I originally wanted to ask my mother to come over and tell you, but who knew that you would not go, so I had to announce it first."
"Are you telling the truth?"
"yes. Queen mother. No, as soon as I heard that you were looking for me, my father quickly sent us over first. Why don't I bring someone with me? After Princess Linglong said this, she leaned closer to Ye Zitong and made a sincere look.
"Look at the way she looks, it doesn't look like she's lying." It was the first time for Queen Zhuang to see Princess Linglong's expression, and she couldn't help but be suspicious, "Linglong has a strange temper. Among his peers, except for Ye'er, he has never been close to anyone. Look at her. I really like this young man, is it really the horse that His Majesty picked for her? "Think about it. couldn't help but look at Ye Zitong carefully.
"Queen Mother, my father said that he has strong martial arts, handsome appearance, and extraordinary appearance, and he will definitely be able to defeat the bad guy of Mingyue, and he thinks that I am very compatible with him, so he gave this family business." Princess Linglong saw Queen Zhuang looking at Ye Zitong, and was busy adding bricks and tiles to the side.
"Oh." While listening to Princess Linglong's words, Queen Zhuang nodded secretly: "This young man is really good-looking, not to mention his delicate appearance, his face is also white and delicate, and he is even better than a woman." Thinking of this, I couldn't help but touch the skin on my face.
"Well, Queen Mother, he's not bad." Princess Linglong saw her mother's expression and immediately knew that she had a good impression of Ye Zitong, and she couldn't help but have a sly smile on her face.
"Ah, yes, yes." Empress Zhuang came back to her senses, nodded hurriedly, looked at it twice, and thought: "This young man's physical appearance is not bad, but he is just too feminine, and his body is a little weak, I don't know if I can give Long'er happiness in the future." Thinking of this, Queen Zhuang suddenly realized that her thoughts were a little narrow, and she couldn't help but have a trace of flying light on her face.
Princess Linglong didn't notice her mother's eccentricity, she was only proud of her sudden thought, and then flew a glance at Ye Zitong.
Ye Zitong was embarrassed for a moment when she saw that Queen Zhuang had misunderstood, and wanted to explain to her, but she didn't want to say that she was a woman, I don't know when she regarded herself as a boy! What a quirk!
Ye Zitong saw Princess Linglong's smug look, and a wave of hatred surged in her heart, if she didn't have a hard time, even if she did a fake show, what if she took this little girl, she would still be playing tricks on herself when the time came.
Ye Zitong was thinking in his heart, and suddenly heard Empress Zhuang ask: "What is your name, where do you live, what is your parents' family background, and can you be famous now?" This is what she cares about the most, even if Linglong likes this young man, but if the other party is a poor boy who has nothing, or just a prodigal son who wanders all over the world, then it is not polite to say anything.
