Chapter 5: Exhausted

Ziyi struggled out of Zixuan's hand, and just now Zixuan was nervous and forgot to let go of her. She knew she must have said the wrong thing, and calling his father's name to his face was impolite even in modern times. So he didn't dare to say more, and while patting his hand on his chest, he inhaled heavily.

Only then did Li Shimin notice her, glanced at her, was stunned, turned around, but could no longer take his eyes off her. He had never seen such a beautiful woman: her skin was like a peach blossom in full bloom, her thick eyebrows were slightly raised, her dark brown eyes seemed to have starlight and flowers, her eyes were broken and floating, and her thin and slender eyelashes flew like butterfly wings in the night. The high bridge of the nose is delicate and upright, the red lips are like dan, and the teeth are like rhinoceros. Tall, with slender legs, a slender waist that is unbearable to hold, and a graceful and graceful demeanor. Where can you find such a beauty in this world?

Ziyi was stared at by him and panicked, did she reveal any flaws?

Zixuan was also frightened, and tentatively called him: "Childe? ”

Only then did Li Shimin retract his gaze, "Oh, this girl's appearance really doesn't look like a person from the Central Plains, where are you from?" ”

"We are Americans." Ziyi said angrily, thinking that she was almost scared to death by him.

"The United States, I've never heard of it, where?"

"You have to continue westward from the Western Regions to get there." Zixuan saw that he didn't find any flaws, and continued to sort out the rhetoric that he had made up these days, "Out of the Western Regions, after the Great Food (author's note: present-day Arabia), and then westward, to Fula (author's note: the name of Rome in the Sui and Tang dynasties), continue to the west, see a sea, and you can only reach it by boat." ”

Although it is an editor, it is true that it is said according to the position of the United States, but at that time Columbus had not yet discovered the New World, and no one had ever been to that place.

"It's the first time I've heard of a place farther away than a whisk." Li Shimin said, his deep eyes were uneasy, and he couldn't see any expression on his face.

"It's a long way, and it takes three or five years to travel by boat or carriage from us to the Central Plains." Zixuan said.

Ziyi thought to herself that this girl can really make up, in modern times, by plane, she can arrive on the same day.

"Those two girls, they came to the Central Plains ......"

"Our father was a businessman, and we came with the caravan." Zixuan said unhurriedly, "It's just that we unfortunately got separated from the caravan, so we are stuck here." My father's caravan should have returned by this time, and we can only wait for the next time we come. ”

"How is the girl going to live?" Li Shimin's face was always as calm as water, making it impossible to see through any of his thoughts.

"It's just that there is nowhere to ......live" Zixuan cried slightly, without adding some acting skills, for fear that he would not believe it, "My father loves the Central Plains culture and often mentions some heroes of the Central Plains, so we know that Lord Ling Zun is heroic and righteous, and loves the people like a son." I was thinking of going to run, hoping that Ling Zun would take in my two sisters, so that we could be maids in your mansion and have a place to live, so that we could wait for the caravan to come again in a few years, so that we could find our father. ”

Seeing her sad face and slightly drooping eyelids, Ziyi almost laughed out loud, my sister doesn't go to learn acting, it's really condescending!

"You don't have to worry about this kind of trivial matter, the people of the world can call the shots, and the Li family is also a big family, so it is not a problem to take in two people."

I didn't expect things to go so smoothly, Ziyi and Zixuan were all shocked, and they only heard him continue: "It's just that you don't have to be a maid, since the two of you are foreigners and not pariahs, how can you wronged the girl to be a maid." You will stay in the Li family, and you should be the guests of the Li family. ”

This is too smooth! Look at the way he looks very deep in the city, but he is so easy to speak.

"Dare to ask the names of the two girls?" He finally had an expression, he was looking at himself tenderly and smiling, that smile was as bright as a star, rendering a peerless brilliance, Zixuan felt that his heart had missed a beat.

"I ...... My name is Yang Zixuan, and this is my cousin...... Cousin Yang Ziyi. Zixuan's cheeks were crimson, and he stammered a little when he was nervous.

"Oh? The surname is Yang, which is the imperial surname of this dynasty. ”

He was still smiling, Zixuan seemed to have been poured a scoop of cold water on his head, now is not the time for a nymphomaniac, such a shrewd person, don't indulge in his smile and show his feet. Zixuan complained bitterly in his heart, what is the surname bad, how can he have the same surname as Emperor Yang Guang of Sui, their father and son are plotting against Sui, and they will easily be regarded as spies sent by the court. I had to bite the bullet and continue to make it up: "Our real surname is Carter (I can't think about it in a hurry, so I say the surname of my aunt by the way), my father loves the Central Plains civilization, and Yang is the surname of the Central Plains given by my father." It is precisely because I know that this 'Yang' is the emperor's surname that I want to be a little extravagant. ”

"I see. Since this is the case, Shimin will take the two girls back to the Li Mansion. Li Jin, come here! Following the direction he beckoned, Zixuan realized that there was a person riding behind him. No way? This person's sense of zΓ i is too bad, he didn't find him after talking for a long time, or he was tired of dealing with Li Shimin, he was too nervous, so he didn't find him, and he didn't know.

Seeing that the man led the horse over, his figure was a little fat, and he looked naΓ―ve, thinking that he was Li Shimin's entourage.

"Can you ride a horse?" Li Shimin asked.

"No, it won't." Ziyi and Zixuan's heads shook like rattles.

"It's getting late, in order to avoid the two girls from getting cold, we won't be formal, Li Jin and I will each bring one person." Li Shimin turned over and got on the horse, picked up Ziyi and sat in front of the horse.

"Hey, what are you doing?" Ziyi was taken aback.

"Riding a horse with a girl, of course." He smiled slyly, turned around and ordered, "Li Jin, you take this Zixuan girl." After saying that, he kicked the dust away.

"Miss Zixuan, please get on the horse." Li Jin helped Zixuan to get on the horse, and he also turned over and ran away with Li Shimin.

The night is bright and the stars are scarce, the crescent moon is like a hook, riding a horse and galloping, Zixuan looked at the vigorous figure in front of him, and still couldn't believe that he was Li Shimin! He is no longer recorded in the history books, but just alive in front of her. The history books describe his appearance as "the posture of the dragon and phoenix, the watch of the sky", and the ghost knows what these eight words look like, but today she sees it alive! Not only that, but I will soon meet Li Yuan, the founding emperor of the Tang Dynasty, and it would be even better if I could witness the process of Jinyang's army! If Dad knew about what she was going through now, he would be jealous too, right? After all, who likes history and doesn't fantasize about witnessing history with his own eyes?

"Hey, why are you so rude! It's a shame that my sister still said that you are so great, so great. Ziyi was dissatisfied with being held in Li Shimin's arms and struggled. She had never seen such a domineering man, and the boy who chased her didn't greet her with a smile, holding it in her hand for fear of falling, and holding it in her mouth for fear of melting.

"Really? Your sister thinks I'm so good, what about you? The people of the world increased the strength of her hands, so that she could not struggle.

"I ......" Ziyi turned his head to meet his heavenly face. Yes, he is indeed very handsome, but my sister has seen more handsome guys, which of the previous boyfriends is not so handsome that it is bubbling? But...... This breathtaking momentum...... Ziyi actually felt that her face was hot, "I...... I ......" was astringent for a while. Ziyi hated herself in her heart, and she actually stammered, that was Zixuan's expression when she was nervous, how could she be ......

"Ha, ha, ha......" Li Shimin's smug laughter was in his ears, which made Ziyi want to find a crack in the ground to get into, and he really wanted to squash him!

The history books say that Li Shimin is good at archery, and the arrows he uses are twice as large as ordinary people, and he can "shoot the door of the hole", which has been confirmed from the fact that he just shot through the tiger's Tianling Gai with an arrow. said that his equestrian skills are also very good, it seems that he deserves his reputation, seeing him galloping in front, if he doesn't take care of Li Jin behind, I'm afraid the speed will be faster. Zixuan was thinking in his heart, if he was allowed to ride on a modern highway for a while, would he be speeding? Haha, it's really interesting to come to ancient times, just treat it as a tour, and you don't have to pay the tour fee.

At this time, Zixuan was enthusiastically enjoying this ancient journey, completely ignoring the fact that there was a return date. The scenery around me changed from woods to wheat fields, from wheat fields to countryside, and from countryside to city. It wasn't until in front of a vermilion gate that the two horses stopped, and Zixuan looked up at the five big characters on the plaque, "Taiyuan Left-behind Mansion".

"The second son is back!" A few servants lead the horses, and the doors open the doors.

"Li Jin, I'm going to see my father. You take the two girls to the inner house first, and let Wujian arrange for them to live first, and then talk about the rest tomorrow. After the people gave the order, they strode in the direction of the main hall.

Zixuan thought to himself: Their father and son must have "big things" to discuss. If only I could listen to it, the planning process of Jinyang's army! It's just that......

"Two girls, please."

It's just that they will never let her listen, but she has to obediently "please here" with Li Jin. The sisters followed Li Jin to the second gate. Li Jin called a maid out and ordered her to take the two girls to meet the second young grandmother and arrange a place to live.

Two young grandma! Isn't that the eldest grandson? Li Shimin's wife, the future generation of virtuous queens. It's okay that I can't hear Jinyang's plan to raise troops, and it's not bad to meet her. Zixuan had no choice but to settle for the next best.

And at this moment, Ziyi's face was red and white for a while, didn't it mean that ancient men would not be too direct? But as soon as he saw her, he took her in his arms by riding a horse! After hugging, he dismounted as if he didn't know her, didn't look at her, and walked straight away! Damn it! What kind of man is this Li Shimin?

After entering the second gate, I went around the inner hall and came to a courtyard located on the east side. The architecture of the Sui and Tang dynasties is different from that of the Ming and Qing dynasties, it is a "Hui" shaped courtyard, and the middle of the front yard is the main hall, which is the place where the host lives and entertains. Walking in with the maid, I saw that the interior was luxurious but elegant and atmospheric, which was also very different from the complex and luxurious style of the Ming and Qing dynasties.
