297. Whose shoulder lends me a use?
At that moment, the three of them raised their glasses and drank freely, talking and laughing while drinking and eating. The three of them all felt very happy, and for a while they also forgot about the fact that it was too late and they had to rush back to the palace.
And the crown prince Li Mo was in the palace at this time, as Su Xiaorou thought, anxious about their delay in returning.
Li Mo had already asked Zhuzhu, and Zhuzhu said that the second prince took the crown princess and the little comb out of the palace to play, and also told the prince that the crown princess was dressed as a man and went out.
Li Mo originally thought that when it was time for dinner at the latest, these playful people would also return to the palace.
However, after waiting and waiting, the supper had passed, the night had completely fallen, the moon had risen high, and there was still no shadow of the three men.
Although he knew that the crown princess and Xiao Comb followed Li Rui, Li Rui would definitely not be sloppy and could take good care of them.
But seeing that the three of them hadn't come back so late, he inevitably began to worry more and more in his heart, wondering if they had encountered some trouble outside the palace, otherwise they should have come back a long time ago.
Li Mo's eyebrows were tightly locked, and he paced around the Taihe Hall again and again, and finally couldn't hold back the concern in his heart, and shouted outside the door: "Han Qi." ”
Han Qi walked in from outside and asked, "What does the prince command?" ”
"Prepare the horse, you and I go out of the palace to find the second prince and the crown princess." Li Mo commanded.
"Yes." Han Qi said yes and walked out.
Han Qi has been guarding the prince's personal guard since he was a child, not only has high martial arts but has always been loyal to the prince, so he has won the prince's trust.
Hearing that the second prince and the crown princess went out of the palace to play together, although he was surprised in his heart, he still didn't ask a word with his character, but just silently obeyed the order to prepare the horses.
This is also the reason why Li Mo is most optimistic about him and is willing to take him with him wherever he goes.
In a few moments, the horses were ready to stop. Li Mo and Han Qi drove out of the palace and walked through the streets and alleys of the capital to find the three of them.
Li Rui Niannian and Xiaorou were eating, drinking, and talking happily at the moment, and Meng Niannian was on a whim, and even pulled Li Rui to guess the boxing and drinking order.
Nian Nian lost a lot of times, so she drank several more glasses of rice wine, but she was still not convinced, and shouted Li Rui to come again.
Su Xiaorou watched the two of them amuse each other, and also pursed her lips and laughed from time to time, although she felt that she had begun to feel dizzy and her eyes were swelling, but she still felt happy that she had never felt before.
Just when the three of them were already drunk and dizzy, they suddenly heard a familiar voice ringing in their ears: "Second brother, it seems that you are becoming more and more informal, you actually brought them to this kind of place to drink?" ”
The three of them looked up and saw that it was the crown prince Li Mo and Han Qi.
"It's the royal brother, why can't I bring them to a place like this to drink?" Li Rui looked at his brother who seemed to fall from the sky, and asked disapprovingly.
"Prince, you're here, it's just right, drink together. The more people, the better, and I like to be lively. Meng Niannian staggered to his feet and beckoned to the prince bewitchingly.
Her "prince" startled the stall owner and his wife, and the two old men had long felt that the young people who came to their stall tonight were not ordinary people, but they definitely did not expect that they would be people from the palace.
Now that he heard that the person who had come to them was the crown prince, he became even more frightened, and did not dare to come near to hear their conversation, but avoided the distance.
When Su Xiaorou saw the prince standing in front of them, her heart suddenly jumped wildly, there was an inexplicable nervousness, and at the same time there was an inexplicable excitement.
He called softly: "Prince." She bowed her head.
She has never drunk before, and today this drunk appearance is seen by the prince, what will she think? At this moment, she suddenly regretted that she was playful for a while, and she couldn't control herself and joined them to drink.
"Little comb, do you drink too?" Li Mo's eyes scanned the three of them in turn, and finally stopped at Su Xiaorou's body.
"No, I won't, but when I saw that the crown princess and the second prince were so happy, I couldn't help but want to drink." Su Xiaorou hurriedly stood up and replied.
But as soon as she stood up, she immediately felt a whirlwind of the world, and her stomach was even more uncomfortable. She couldn't support it anymore, and as soon as her body went limp, she collapsed.
Li Mo stepped forward to support Su Xiaorou, and said to Li Rui reproachfully: "Look at the good things you have done, the little comb is drunk like this." ”
Su Xiaorou leaned on Li Mo's body, still a little conscious, and muttered at this time: "Don't blame the second prince, I want to drink it myself." Prince, I knew you were going to worry, I knew you were going to be worried......"
As she spoke, her voice gradually lowered, she closed her eyes, rested her head on the prince's chest, and fell asleep.
Li Mo hurriedly ordered Han Qi to find the car quickly, and sat down first, so that Su Xiaorou could sleep more comfortably on her own.
When Meng Niannian saw it, she laughed again, and with a burst of excitement from the strength of wine, she said intermittently: "Prince, you are so good, you are so good to the little comb." In fact...... The little comb is also very good to you, but she just missed it...... What if you miss it? Alas, it's a pity, it's a pity, and even I'm not free anymore, what should I do in the future? Alas, alas......"
While saying this, she sighed repeatedly, and saw Li Rui sitting silently, Nian Nian raised the wine glass again: "Second prince, come, let's toast again, you were so active just now, why don't you say a word now, are you afraid of your eldest brother?" ”
"I, Li Rui, don't have anyone to be afraid of now. Okay, do it again. My sister-in-law is a heroine among women, I really admire, admire. After listening to Niannian's words, Li Rui picked up the wine glass in front of him and drank it all.
It's just that no one knows that seeing Su Xiaorou like a kitten at this time, meekly snuggled up to the prince's chest and fell asleep. His heart, like the wine he had drunk, was bitter and bitter.
"Don't drink anymore, I think the crown princess has drunk a lot today. Second Emperor Brother, do you know? Actually, Little Comb is also a girl, how can you make them drink so much? Li Mo stopped them sternly.
"Haha, Brother Huang, I have long known that the little comb is a girl, and because of this, I like the little comb even more." Li Rui said with a laugh.
"I see, hehe, the second prince, you are so frank and refreshing, I like this kind of character that simply does not drag the mud and water. You buddy, I admit it today. Nian Nian was already drunk like a cloud, at this time she not only just spoke, but also stretched out her hand to pat Li Rui's shoulder with a big grin.
Li Mo and Li Rui glanced at each other, they couldn't understand what she meant by "buddy", and they only thought that the crown princess might have really drunk too much, so they started talking nonsense.
At this time, Li Rui couldn't help but regret it in his heart, he knew that he really shouldn't have let her drink so much, such a cute girl, now looks a little crazy.
Nian Nian looked at the two brothers again and said, "Which of you two lends me a shoulder?" ”
"What?" Li Mo and Li Rui couldn't understand what she meant for a while, and asked at the same time.
"I'm dizzy, I'm tired, and I want to sleep. Prince, you have to take care of the little comb, forget it, then the second prince, you lend me to lean on your shoulder. Meng Niannian said, leaning on Li Rui's shoulder with his head tilted, and even fell asleep.
Li Mo and Li Rui looked at each other, both stunned by Nian Nian's move.
Speechless for a while, Li Rui stretched out his hands to Li Mo: "Brother Huang, you can't blame me for this, it's my sister-in-law who is too tired, and you have to hold a small comb." ”
"It seems that she really drank too much today, so you can let her sleep for a while......" Li Mo also felt quite embarrassed for a while, so he had to reluctantly reply.
Fortunately, at this time, Han Qi had already found a luxury carriage, so Li Mo and Li Rui each helped a girl who was sleeping crookedly to get into the car.
Li Mo told Han Qi to leave the settlement, don't forget to pay the old couple double the silver, and then the four of them went back to the palace first.
Han Qi did as the prince instructed him one by one, and finally instructed the stall owner and his wife not to talk nonsense about tonight's affairs, and the stall owner and his wife were sincerely afraid to agree again and again.
When Han Qi led the two horses away, the old woman couldn't help but smile at the old man and said: "Old man, I didn't expect that we have done a small business for decades, and today we will be lucky enough to meet the crown prince, even if the business is bad in the future, I think our life will be worth it." ”
"Hehe, old woman, since our stall is stained with the royal fairy aura, the business will definitely prosper and get better and better in the future, so you can't be busy waiting to collect money." The old man also said happily.
The couple happily closed the stall and went home laughing and laughing.
The next day, Nian Nian fell asleep in bed because she drank too much wine last night.
Li Mo came in to watch a few times, and explained that Zhuzhu had to take care of the crown princess, and when the princess woke up, she must give the princess a cup of honey tea to relieve her hangover.
In his heart, he naturally still thinks about the little comb.
The little comb usually looks weaker than the crown princess, so what about now? Wouldn't it be more uncomfortable?
Thinking like this, Li Mo subconsciously walked towards Xiao Comb's residence.
But as soon as he took a few steps, he saw Su Xiaorou standing at the door of the study, with a shy and slightly shy face, as if he was waiting for him. Li Mo's heart suddenly rippled with fluctuations, but his face still seemed very calm, he had always been an emotionally restrained person.
At this time, he just walked over and asked lightly, "Are you better?" You were all too drunk to wake up last night, and the crown princess is still asleep. ”
