Chapter Ninety-Four: The Little Princess Who Became a Daogu

"Ah sneeze Ah ~" Li Zhang sneezed twice in a row and sat up, then tightened the clothes on his body, and looked around with doubts in his eyes, only to see that this was a small Taoist temple, because in front of him was enshrined the statue of Sanqing, and under him were several futons lined up together, the incense burner in front of the statue was light and smoky, and there was a faint fragrance in the air.

"I ...... How could I be in a Taoist temple? Li Zhang muttered to himself full of puzzlement at this time, and then covered his head and groaned in pain, only then did he suddenly remember that he had obviously come to the palace for a banquet, and then he was poured a lot of wine by Zhao Heng, who was demented, but why did he wake up and be in a Taoist temple?

"Did I cross over again?" Li Zhang, who was in a mess in his mind, suddenly felt a flash of inspiration, and thought of a possibility again, and couldn't help but be startled at the moment, but then he felt that it was very possible, after all, if he could cross once, no one dared to guarantee that there would be no second time.

"Cousin, are you awake?" But at this moment, I suddenly saw Zhao Zhen walking in from behind the Taoist temple, but he was also pale at this time, and he covered his forehead with one hand, looking very painful, almost the same as Li Zhang now.

"What's the matter, you're drunk too?" Seeing Zhao Zhen's hangover and not drunk, Li Zhang couldn't help but ask in astonishment, he only remembered that he was drunk by Zhao Heng before, but he didn't remember that Zhao Zhen also drank?

"You were the first to get drunk last night, and then my father took me as an uncle, and I drank a few more glasses as a result." Zhao Zhen covered his head at this time and said helplessly, he was also drunk for the first time, and it was also the first time he tasted the pain of a hangover.

"Haha~, it turns out that I'm not the only one who is unlucky!" Li Zhang couldn't help laughing when he heard this, but as soon as he raised his head, he only felt another throbbing pain in his brain, which made him gasp and feel that his whole brain was about to fall out.

"If you have any water, bring me a glass of warm water!" Li Zhang covered his head again at this time and said, not only did his head hurt at this time, but his throat was also dry and astringent, and every word he said was very uncomfortable.

However, as soon as his words fell, Zhao Zhen glanced at him with a strange expression, and only after a moment did he speak: "Cousin, do you still want to drink water here?" ”

"What's the matter, there's not even water here, right?" Li Zhang said again casually at this time, but when he said this, he suddenly raised his head and looked at Zhao Zhen and said, "By the way, I haven't asked you what kind of place this is, why are we in a Taoist temple?" ”

"Cousin, don't you remember what happened last night?" Hearing Li Zhang's words, I saw Zhao Zhen look at Li Zhang with a strange gaze again.

"What's the matter, yesterday I only remember being poured a lot of wine by His Majesty, and then I don't remember anything." Li Zhang rubbed his temples at this time and said, he knew in his previous life that he was a shallow drinker, so he rarely drank alcohol, and he had little experience with this kind of hangover.

"Cousin, if you think about it again, do you really not remember anything at all?" Zhao Zhen said with a somewhat resentful expression at this time.

"What do you mean, did I get drunk and go crazy yesterday?" Li Zhang was also startled when he saw Zhao Zhen's expression, and then thought about it carefully, and as a result, a few incoherent pictures really popped up in his mind.

"I remember, it looks like you brought me here, right?" Li Zhang looked at Zhao Zhen at this time and asked.

"Yes, cousin, you finally remembered, and then?" Zhao Zhen also covered his face with some annoyance at this time and said, he also drank too much yesterday, otherwise he would never bring Li Zhang here.

And then ...... Then ......" Li Zhang also frowned at this time and thought hard, but finally remembered some things, and patted his thigh excitedly at the moment, "I remember, there seems to be a beautiful little Taoist aunt here, and she also served us tea, and I also talked a lot to the other party." ”

"Is it just talking?" Zhao Zhen glanced at Li Zhang again at this time and asked again.

"So what else did you do?" Li Zhang really couldn't think of it at this time, and rubbed his head in pain at the moment.

"You still hold her hand, you have to show her palmistry, and you also say that she will definitely be able to marry a wishful husband in the future." Zhao Zhen reminded again at this time.

"Huh? Did I do this? Li Zhang touched his head at this time and said, he really didn't have these impressions at all, even if he remembered the little Taoist aunt, but he couldn't remember the other party's appearance, but then he smiled cheekily and said again, "I said these are also good intentions, what kind of Taoist priest should the little girl's family, I remember that she seems to be about the same age as my sister Tanuki, and she is the age when she loves to play and make trouble, what is the meaning of staying in this small Taoist temple every day to burn incense and worship God?" ”

"Do you think she wants to, she has no choice but to do it!" Zhao Zhen glanced at Li Zhang at this time and said.

"After talking for a long time, who is this little Taoist aunt, and it seems that this is still the palace, why is there a Taoist temple in the palace?" Li Zhang finally asked the question in his heart at this time, he remembered that Zhao Zhen took him here yesterday, it should still be within the scope of the palace, after all, he is the prince, it is impossible to leave the palace easily.

"She's my only sister!" When Zhao Zhen talked about his sister, a sad look flashed on his face.

"Sister?" Li Zhang was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then suddenly reacted and shouted, "Isn't your sister a princess, how can she be a little Dao girl?" ”

"I like to be a Taoist aunt, I want you to take care of it! cough cough~" Li Zhang's words just fell, but he only heard a crisp voice from behind the curtain next to the statue and retorted, his tone seemed to be a little angry and dissatisfied, but after he finished speaking, there was a coughing sound, as if he was sick?

"Miao Yuan, don't be angry, my cousin was drunk yesterday, so he was a little rude." Zhao Zhen hurriedly explained softly to the girl behind the curtain at this time.

"He's not my cousin, I don't want to see him again, you guys go quickly!" I only heard the girl behind the curtain say again, and her voice seemed to be a little weak, and she had been hiding behind and refused to appear, and she refused to even see Li Zhang.

"I remember, yesterday you threw me to sleep on the futon here, and I almost got sick." Li Zhang suddenly patted his head at this time and remembered a little picture again, he remembered that the other party suddenly got angry yesterday, and then left him here and didn't ask, he was drunk and didn't know where to go, and finally had to sleep on the futon.

"Hmph, who made you rude to me!" The little girl behind the curtain looked very proud at this time, and then drove away again, "Big brother, if you don't take him away again, I will ask someone to complain to the eldest lady!" cough cough cough~"

As soon as the little princess finished speaking, there was another violent coughing sound, which made Zhao Zhen also show a distressed expression, and then hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Don't don't~, I'll take my cousin away now!" ”

After Zhao Zhen finished speaking, he dragged Li Zhang away, maybe he heard the sound of Li Zhang and them leaving, and finally revealed half of his snow-white little face after the curtain, but when the big bright eyes saw that Li Zhang was still looking at him, he snorted coldly at the moment, and then disappeared behind the curtain.

"What the hell is going on, why did a princess become a little Daogu?" Li Zhang was dragged out of the Taoist temple by Zhao Zhen and couldn't help but ask again, at this time he found that he was indeed in the imperial palace, surrounded by tall palaces, but a quiet Taoist temple was built here.

"It's a long story, Miaoyuan, she's actually quite pitiful!" Zhao Zhen said with a depressed expression at this time.

"Pathetic?" Li Zhang was even more strange when he heard this, the princess of a dignified country could be described by the word "pitiful", which made him even more curious about the princess's life experience.

"Next to it is the Gyeongbokgung Hall where I live, let's go take a rest and have something to eat by the way and talk!" Zhao Zhen pointed to a palace next to him at this time, he only has this one sister, so the relationship between the brother and sister is very deep, and the place where they live is also next to each other, sometimes when his sister is sick, he will also come to take care of it in person.

Li Zhang also nodded when he heard Zhao Zhen's proposal, so the two came to Gyeongbok Hall together, on the way Li Zhang asked Li Yonghe by the way, but Zhao Zhen didn't know, because he was the second to get drunk, but according to his estimate, Li Yonghe should have been sent out of the palace last night, so he didn't have to worry about him at all.

Gyeongbok Hall is located in the northeast corner of the palace, very close to Zishan Hall, but there is a palace wall between the two, but in order to facilitate Zhao Zhen to go to Zishan Hall to study, a palace gate was specially opened in the middle of the palace wall.

"I heard your sister's name Miao Yuan just now?" As soon as breakfast came up, Li Zhang couldn't wait to ask.

"Miao Yuan is my sister's road name, but I prefer to call her Miao Yuan to her official name." Zhao Zhen opened his mouth to explain at this time.

"Then why did she become a Taoist priest?" Li Zhang asked again.

"You know what is going on for my father and his son, right?" Zhao Zhen asked rhetorically at this time.

Li Zhang also nodded when he heard this, Zhao Heng is indeed a difficult heir, although many children have been born, but one is born and one dies, for example, Zhao Zhen has five elder brothers, but all of them died, and the one who lived the longest only lived to be ten years old, as for the daughters, there are even more deaths, so many people suspect that the feng shui of the palace is not good.

In addition, Li Zhang also knew that Zhao Zhen was not as good as his father Zhao Heng in terms of heirs, because Zhao Heng had such a son as Zhao Zhen to survive, but Zhao Zhen did not even have a son, and finally had to choose his cousin's son to succeed him as the crown prince, that is, the later Song Yingzong, and Yingzong's son was the famous Emperor Shenzong.

"My father's heirs are difficult, and finally I finally have them, my father thought that there would never be any more children, but just seven years ago, Du Guifei in the palace suddenly became pregnant......"

But just when Zhao Zhen said this, he suddenly heard a rush of footsteps outside, which made Zhao Zhen stop and turn his head to look, only to see a little chamberlain running in in a panic and whispering a few words in his ear, as a result, Zhao Zhen's expression also changed greatly, and Li Zhang hurriedly asked when he saw this: "What's wrong, what happened?" ”

"Miao Yuan...... Miao Yuan, she fainted! Zhao Zhen replied with a pale expression at this time.

"How is it possible, wasn't it okay just now?" Li Zhang was also startled when he heard this, he and Zhao Zhen had just left from this little princess, why did the other party suddenly faint?

"Miao Yuan's body is already very weak, she needs to take medicine often, she can't stand a little fatigue and cold, it is likely that we disturbed her rest last night, so she fell ill again!" Zhao Zhen was also in a hurry at this time, and then suddenly came to his senses, and immediately pulled his legs and ran to the Taoist temple where his sister lived.

Li Zhang hesitated for a moment and hurriedly followed, after all, he was also responsible for this matter, if this little princess really had any strengths and weaknesses, he would also be at ease, and he also knew how to heal, maybe he could help?
