On the night of the Yuan Day, Chang'an did not sleep.

Jin Wu can't help but keep the candles, and the night of Chang'an City glows with a completely different brilliance from the day.

Looking down, the square road is like a galaxy, criss-crossed, dividing Chang'an City into one hundred and eight squares, like a golden chessboard.

People are like chess pieces.

The "chess pieces" are like weaving, and a teenager is walking slowly.

Regardless of the flow of people, there was no joy on the young man's face, more of an inexplicable anxiety and uneasiness.

The Yingge Yan Dance in the Wine Shop Music Workshop seems to have nothing to do with this young man, only the figure that does not give up on the road behind him is as dark as night, standing alone.

At this moment, Li Zhen has no time to take care of the position of the prince, although his goal has been like this from the beginning, there are always some things in this world that cannot be changed by man.

What's more, because at this moment, there is only one name lingering in Li Zhen's mind, and there is no room for others.

The name is called: Qiu Shiliang.

But what really made Li Zhen feel helpless was that Qiu Shiliang was dying.

This is not what Li Zhen wants, although he ultimately wants him to die.

But the process is different.

"Chongrenfang ......"

In the dark, Li Zhen's footsteps stopped in front of a fang,

The Xiqin pipa is like a word, the Qiang flute is like a song, even the candle flame swaying in the lantern is more charming than other lanes.

Not far away, there are a few groups of children, around the fire is putting the cut young bamboo into it, the young bamboo bursts when the fire is fired, crackling, it is not much inferior to the firecrackers of later generations.

"That's General Lee!?"

At this moment, only to hear a soft call behind him, Li Zhen turned around and looked, only to see a young man holding a few oil paper bags in his hand, walking towards him with a smile.

"Hahaha, the villain has seen the general!"

It is the head of Princess Yanqing's mansion.

"Hehe, it turned out to be Mr. Wang!" Li Zhen smiled, then pointed to a few oiled paper bags in his hand, and asked, "Mr. Wang, this is ......?"

Manager Wang said with a smile: "Your Highness suddenly wanted to eat the flax cakes of Fuxingfang, and I didn't dare to delay for too long, so I went to buy some and came back!" Is the general going to the princess's mansion? ”

After Li Zhen heard this, he remembered that Princess Yanqing had already moved to Chongrenfang, and then said with a smile: "Okay, then let's go see Her Royal Highness the Princess!" ”

......

Princess's House.

"Tsk, I haven't seen anyone here in this palace for a few days, but I didn't expect that there would be a rare guest today!"

Before the person appeared, the voice came first, the main entrance of the guest hall opened lightly, and a gust of fragrant wind came to the face.

Seeing this, Li Zhen hurriedly got up and saluted: "Li Zhen has seen His Highness!" ”

Perhaps because of the Yuan Festival, Princess Yanqing is dressed very festively today, with a vermilion shirt, a pale pink shawl, a red thin long skirt, a gold silk ribbon around her waist, and a flying fairy bun on her head, decorated with gold-inlaid peacocks.

The flowers between the eyebrows are like blood, the cheeks are obliquely red like the sun, and the pink breasts are faintly visible, and the half-concealed and half-reflected places add a bit of spring.

Yanqing glanced at Li Zhen, although his tone was a little displeased, but from his gaze, it could be seen that it was more indescribably complicated.

"General Li, why did you remember to come to see the palace on this day?" Yanqing said, motioning for Li Zhen to take a seat.

Li Zhen was about to sit down, but he only heard Yanqing say again: "This palace knows your habits, don't pretend, sit on that case!" ”

Li Zhen was slightly stunned when he heard this, then looked at Manager Wang on the side, and said with a smile: "Manager Wang, can you let the Imperial Doctor see it?" ”

Manager Wang was immediately confused when he heard this, and said, "Look...... What the? ”

Unexpectedly, Princess Yanqing scolded with a smile: "If it weren't for the fact that it is not suitable to see blood today, this palace will definitely cut off your tongue, so as not to talk nonsense again!" ”

Li Zhen laughed and said, "If you cut off Zhen's tongue, wouldn't Your Highness be even more lonely?" ”

After saying that, Li Zhen realized his gaffe, but Manager Wang was shocked when he listened, for fear that Yanqing would do something in anger.

But when Princess Yanqing heard this, she was slightly stunned at first, and then her cheeks were crimson and she picked up the teacup to hide her face and sip lightly.

Seeing this, Manager Wang couldn't help but look at Li Zhen in surprise, his face full of doubts.

And Li Zhen laughed dryly a few times, and he didn't know what to say for a while.

"I heard that you went to the Eastern Capital a few days ago?"

Yanqing deliberately diverted the topic and asked softly, although she had already known Li Zhen's whereabouts.

"Oh, thank you Your Highness for your rescue!" Li Zhen hurriedly said.

"I don't know what you said to Your Majesty, but you made Your Majesty change his mind and keep Li Deyu!" Yanqing immediately laughed.

Li Zhen was about to answer, but he only heard Yanqing say next: "This palace doesn't ask about the government, so you don't have to say more!" ”

Li Zhen nodded and said with a smile: "It seems that His Highness has already understood!" ”

"Not because of you!" After saying that, Princess Yanqing was stunned for a moment, and then said slowly: "Since the death of my father, the palace has been much quieter, and now I can't even find a person who accompanies the palace to drink and compose poems!" ”

Li Zhen could hear that Princess Yanqing's tone had a touch of sadness, and behind the seemingly indifferent scenes, there was a cold indifference to the world.

"As long as His Royal Highness doesn't think Li Zhen is noisy, Zhen is on call!" Li Zhen said with a smile.

Princess Yanqing raised her eyes and looked at Li Zhen when she heard this, and there was a hint of infatuation hidden between her eyebrows.

Li Zhen's face turned red, and he hurriedly raised the teacup and drank it all.

"Hehe, it's a pity that you can't stay in the capital for a few days, otherwise this palace still wants to compete with you again!" Yanqing chuckled, her eyes were like silk, and she couldn't help but be confused.

"Tell me, what's on your mind?" Yanqing no longer looked at Li Zhen, and concentrated on playing with the bunches of red plums inserted in the white porcelain bottle on the case.

"Your Highness laughed, Zhen doesn't have anything on his mind!" Li Zhen said with a smile.

Yanqing immediately glanced at Li Zhen, and then said softly to the vase in his hand: "Flowers can't speak, so the fragrance is pleasing to people, people are so flowers, even if you want to cover it again, but this fragrance can't be covered no matter what!" ”

When Li Zhen heard this, his face immediately showed melancholy, and he shook his head and said: "Your Highness's eyes are like a torch, but Zhen has some concerns, but His Highness still doesn't know about this matter, so as not to be implicated in this in the future!" ”

The voice fell, only to hear the sound of "pop", Yanqing put the white porcelain vase on the case, Feng Mu lightly, and said coldly: "Say it or not, it's just that this palace can't see the appearance of others, saying that it is to see this palace, but it is a sad face, even if the smile is reluctant, as if the palace has offended you!" ”

Hearing this, Li Zhen hurriedly bowed down and said with a smile: "Your Highness is serious, it's just ......"

Without waiting for Li Zhen to finish speaking, Yanqing immediately said: "It's just that I'm bothering you to come back when you're in a good mood, so as not to let the palace lose its interest when you see it!" ”

After hearing this, Li Zhen was stunned, and then bowed down and said, "That's ...... Zhen first retired, and asked His Highness for forgiveness! ”

After saying that, Li Zhen got up and wanted to leave, but unexpectedly Yanqing said again: "Stop!" Where are you in this palace? Come as you say, go as you go! ”

Li Zhen smiled bitterly and said, "Your Highness ......?"

"Sit down!"

Yanqing said coldly: "Today is idle, if you don't speak clearly, you don't want to leave!" I can't kill you, I will beat you a few times, and I believe that Uncle Huang will not blame him! ”

In desperation, Li Zhen had to sit back again, not because he couldn't believe Yanqing, but the things in his heart were too complicated, and he didn't know how to speak for a while.

"This palace gives you time to think about it, and then talk about it when you think about it!" Yanqing seemed to see what Li Zhen was thinking, but his tone was still unquestionable.

After that, Yanqing glanced at Chief Wang and signaled him to retreat, judging from this subtlety alone, Princess Yanqing's intelligence is not inferior to Li Zhen.

"Your Highness...... Do you really want to listen? Li Zhen changed his previous playful tone and became a little dignified.

Yanqing looked at Li Zhen, although he didn't speak, his expression already showed everything.

"What does Your Highness think of Qiu Shiliang?" Li Zhen asked tentatively, after all, I don't know if Yanqing has any intersection with these eunuchs.

Yanqing glanced at Li Zhen, and then sneered: "It's just eunuchs, in the eyes of this palace, they are just people with six incomplete roots, and even the king of Hades refuses to accept them!" ”

After hearing this, Li Zhen's heart was a little calm, and then he continued: "Qiu Shiliang is dying!" ”

"He died well, Bengong still thinks he died slowly!"

Just listening to this, you can see that Princess Yanqing's hatred for Qiu Shiliang is obviously not much less than that of Li Zhen.

"But I don't want him to die!"

Li Zhen said: "To be exact, I don't want him to die so easily!" ”

"Oh? Why? At this time, Yanqing seemed to be interested and asked, "What kind of hatred do you have with him?" ”

Li Zhen shook his head and said with a smile: "Your Highness's secret Zhen doesn't dare to ask more, Zhen Zi has some unspeakable secrets, and I hope Your Highness will forgive me!" ”

"And what are you going to do?" Yanqing asked.

Li Zhen smiled bitterly and said, "If Zhen had known, he would not have been so easily guessed by His Highness!" ”

After hearing this, Princess Yanqing frowned slightly, and after being silent for a moment, she couldn't help but smile: "Hehe, you have no talent but no talent, why was your head so awake when you designed to frame me that day?" ”

Li Zhen smiled helplessly, his face looking a little tired.

"Qiu Shiliang is a lieutenant in the Right Shence Army, just because you can't move him no matter what, since you can't move, then find someone who can move!" Yanqing immediately laughed.

Li Zhen seemed to have realized what he said, and said softly: "Your Majesty?!" ”

Yanqing nodded and said, "That's it, as long as Your Majesty moves his mind, how can Qiu Shiliang die well?" ”

Li Zhen couldn't help but fall silent after hearing this, and under the order of Princess Yanqing, he seemed to think of something in his heart.

Seeing that Li Zhen was silent, Princess Yanqing continued: "So what you have to do now is how to make Your Majesty think about Qiu Shiliang, but don't forget, with Qiu Shiliang's status, it is useless to wait for idle charges, and you have to do it...... You have to do it without leaving a trail back! ”

"Rebellion!" Li Zhen looked up at Princess Yanqing and said slowly, with a faint smile on his face.

"This palace is unknown, in terms of hollowing out and harming people, you are much more powerful than this palace!" Princess Yanqing pursed her lips and said slightly playfully.

"Thank you Your Highness for your advice, Zhen will retire first!"

After saying that, Li Zhen turned around and left, and Yanqing smiled when he saw this: "This palace didn't say anything, but I was very willing to help!" ”

"Hahaha...... It will be a hassle for Your Highness! Li Zhen laughed and waved his hand as he walked.

After Li Zhen left, Yanqing got up and walked to the table where Li Zhen was sitting, and his jade fingers gently pinched the teacup, and an intoxicating smile appeared on his face.

"It's not good to offend anyone, but if you offend this calamity, I'm afraid that this enemy Shiliang is going to die without a corpse......"
