Chapter 656: Beauty Under the Moon

In the evening, Xue Shao finally hugged his baby son Xue Linyu. The little guy looks like a pink ball, although he can only eat, drink, and sleep, but his eyebrows and facial features are clearly recognizable. Obviously, he inherited the excellent appearance genes of Xue Shao and Princess Taiping, and he is very good-looking!

Xue Shao hugged him, and his heart was full of indescribable happiness and joy. At this moment, he can't wait to hold the whole world in the palm of his hand in an instant, and give it all to his precious son as a gift of meeting!

As a first-time father, Xue Shao's mood can only be described in four words - beautiful!

If it weren't for the child's crying, the nurse would take him to sleep, and Xue Shao would have been holding him to relax.

When the child was taken away, Xue Shao realized that Princess Taiping was not by his side. When I asked someone, it turned out that she went to accompany Shangguan Wan'er.

Xue Shao was secretly amused, forgive a person who has never been a father, I didn't mean to snub distinguished guests and abrupt beauties.

Princess Taiping wanted to play with Xue Shao to tease the baby, but she chose to accompany Shangguan Wan'er. From this small detail, Xue Shao felt that Princess Taiping was more mature than before - although when she was alone in private, she was still the unruly and weird princess with a crooked neck.

When dusk was about to dive into the night, the second daughter was quite leisurely and leisurely, and took the gorgeous painting boat customized by Princess Taiping to go boating in Luoshui.

Xue Shao thought to himself, they would enjoy it. It is the hot summer season, the breeze is blowing on the Luoshui, the water vapor is thick, and there are no mosquitoes, which is indeed a good place to escape the heat and enjoy the coolness. Drifting on the Luoshui to enjoy the beautiful scenery of Luoyang, just like the poetry and painting of "the sea rises and the moon is at this time", which is very suitable for the outstanding taste of Princess Taiping and the talented woman of Shangguan Wan'er.

It took Xue Shao a lot of twists and turns to rent a private cargo boat at the suspended ferry and take him to the river to find Princess Taiping's painting boat.

This painting boat is not ordinary, the appearance is splendid, the interior decoration is gorgeous, not to mention, it is also the first emperor Li Zhi when he was alive to use the river dragon boat. Every Dragon Boat Festival or Mid-Autumn Festival, if the two saints are in Luoyang, they will board the dragon boat together, and swim with the people of Luoyang to enjoy the moon or watch the dragon boat competition. Therefore, all the people of Luoyang recognize this famous dragon boat boat. After Li Zhi's death, Wu Zetian gave the dragon boat to Princess Taiping out of doting on his daughter. As a result, it has become a signboard and symbol of Princess Taiping in Luoyang.

Something that is eye-catching like this is naturally easy to find.

Before the night was deep and the full moon reflected Luoshui, Xue Shao boarded this gorgeous painting boat. Eighteen maiko are dancing, Princess Taiping is personally stroking the piano with great interest, and Shangguan Wan'er is waving ink on the side, writing poems and paintings.

The enjoyment of these singing and dancing in front of him, Xue Shao was tired of playing. Now, he felt a little strange.

Of course, this couldn't stop Xue Shao from joining them soon to enjoy it together.

The sound of the piano is wonderful, and the dancing posture is extremely beautiful. The bright moon shines on the beauty, Luo Shui is amorous, and Shangguan Wan'er's calligraphy, painting and poetry are a must.

Xue Shao was in it, and couldn't help but sigh secretly with self-deprecation: Bai Fumei's taste of life in the capital is different, how can I, a person who fled from the bitter cold land of the border pass, be embarrassed?

"Childe has been leading his troops to fight abroad for a long time, and it must have been extremely hard." Shangguan Wan'er seemed to see through Xue Shao's thoughts, and said with a smile, "When you go back to Beijing this time, do you want to stay longer?" ”

"That's nature." Xue Shao nodded and said with a smile, "Anyway, I have to wait for my son to marry his daughter-in-law and give birth to a baby, and I will talk about it after I hold my grandson!" ”

Princess Taiping and Shangguan Wan'er both laughed suddenly. Princess Taiping said: "Your son can't speak yet, so you are in a hurry to hug your grandson - it is really funny that there is such an urgent son like you in the world!" ”

"Who doesn't want their children to grow up sooner? Pity the hearts of parents all over the world! Xue Shao was in a beautiful mood and laughed.

At this time, after a dance on the dance floor, Princess Taiping told the dancers to go down and rest for a while, and asked someone to bring exquisite snacks and pastries and some light wine, and the three of them drank together.

The breeze was blowing, and the painting boat glided lightly on the Luoshui, stirring up a slight sound of selling water. The incense in the copper tripod is scattered, the wine in the cup is refreshing, and the two beauties in front of you are even more captivating.

Xue Shao felt that he was going to get drunk soon.

"Xue Lang, this time the imperial court summoned you back to Beijing, and my mother sent Guan Wan'er to stop you halfway, what do you think?" Princess Taiping asked suddenly.

Xue Shao smiled faintly and said, "It's been some time since I left Beijing, I have fought a few battles and done some things, and it is normal for me to return to the DPRK to take up my post. As for the matter of Miss Shangguan...... I've already talked to her, and I'm sure she's got the answer to you. Why say more? ”

Princess Taiping pursed her lips slightly, the corners of her mouth outlined two charming dimples, and smiled: "Then have you ever thought that if you go back to Chang'an, how many people will step on your threshold?" ”

Xue Shao's brows furrowed slightly, and he shook his head, "I don't know." ”

Princess Taiping said: "As early as more than half a month ago, the queen mother asked me to leave Chang'an and live in Luoyang, and told me to travel in simple clothes without ostentatiousness. Therefore, even Shangguan Wan'er didn't know that I had come to Luoyang. At that time, I guessed that something big might happen in Chang'an. But I didn't expect that it was to abolish the emperor! ”

"I didn't expect that either!" Xue Shao also shook his head, and then looked at Shangguan Wan'er, "At this time of many events, I don't want to get involved in those rights and wrongs." After all, I am a general who leads troops on the frontier, and any of my actions will make people with ulterior motives particularly nervous and jealous. I don't even want to see my friends in the officialdom and the robes in the army, because that might cause them some unnecessary trouble. Now that there is a Shangguan girl here, I guess others will not come to my door lightly. That's a good thing! ”

Shangguan Wan'er immediately smiled, "So, Xue Gongzi has already treated Wan'er as a door god?" ”

The couple laughed at the same time, and Princess Taiping said, "Don't mind, Wan'er, he has a stupid mouth and can't speak." ”

"I'm stupid?" Xue Shao rolled his eyes unconvinced, why didn't you criticize me like this when I was in the bathroom?

"Don't talk back!" Princess Taiping has a flat face, a tiger and a mighty queen.

Xue Shao smiled, "Okay, I won't intervene." ”

"Plugging in"?

Princess Taiping blinked, why did this sound a little strange?

In the next second, Princess Taiping's face turned red with a swish, and she glanced at Xue Shao fiercely, and scolded in her heart-Deng disciple, thinking about that kind of thing with a bad stomach!!

Xue Shao immediately made an innocent expression, what did I say? Don't think crooked!!

Shangguan Wan'er watched the little couple stare at each other and play dumb riddles, and she didn't feel Wan'er, and said, "How about I go and get some large pieces of paper to draw a portrait of the two of you?" ”

A very clever way to retreat and evade.

"Okay!" Princess Taiping was quite happy when she heard it, "The two of us should leave more portraits, and we can take them out when we are old in the future!" ”

Xue Shao suddenly smiled, thinking that the people of the Tang Dynasty were so pitiful, they hadn't seen the camera!

Shangguan Wan'er flew away.

Princess Taiping hurriedly came to Xue Shao's side and whispered, "In the past six months, Shangguan Wan'er has become more and more trusted and reused by my mother. You have to be polite and close to her in the future - but, you listen well - but you can't think of her in any way, let alone act in a way that is wrong!! ”

Xue Shao smiled: "Didn't you still want her to be a concubine before?" ”

"This time, that time!" Princess Taiping glared at Xue Shao with a tiger, "Now Shangguan Wan'er's identity is very special, she is no longer the dispensable little envoy in the palace, she is already my mother's confidant, even the prime minister of the cabinet does not dare to underestimate her, and the princes and grandsons do not dare to have any wrong thoughts about her-you save a little worry, don't cross the thunder pool because you are greedy for temporary pleasure." That may not only harm us, but also Wan'er herself! ”

Xue Shao knew that Princess Taiping's words were by no means out of jealousy, but had deep and rational considerations, so he nodded seriously, "Don't worry, I know it in my heart." ”

Shangguan Wan'er came back, and immediately spread out a large piece of drawing paper and began to paint portraits of Xue Shao and Princess Taiping.

Princess Taiping sat upright next to Xue Shao with great interest, and asked Xue Shao to also maintain this posture and not move, so that Shangguan Wan'er could paint seriously.

Xue Shao really thought it was funny, and thought to himself, could it be that if we moved, we would draw a ghost?

Shangguan Wan'er also smiled, "Your Highness doesn't have to be like this, Wan'er only needs to look at it, and she has already reflected the two of them in her heart." If you draw with your heart like this, you don't have to look at it all the time. ”

"That's fine!" Princess Taiping smiled and groaned, and seemed to be in a good mood.

Xue Shao knew that the paintings of the Tang Dynasty were not realistic in style, and they were typical of "god-like but not formal". You don't see those murals and famous paintings of the Tang Dynasty, and the beauties in the paintings are all round heads and round brains. From the general aesthetic point of view of the 21st century, it is not only not a beauty, but can be regarded as obese and ugly.

In different eras, people's aesthetic tastes and artistic sentiments are different. It is really difficult to impose the views and habits of later generations on the ancients.

Shangguan Wan'er concentrates on painting, swinging her pen like flowing water, and her every move is extremely chic and freehand.

Not only did Xue Shao feel pleasing to the eye, but even Princess Taiping couldn't help but cast an appreciative look at her.

It didn't take long for Shangguan Wan'er to finish the painting.

The couple took it and took a look, and Princess Taiping was overjoyed and praised. Xue Shao also praised him, but he couldn't cry or laugh in his heart, and said in his heart, am I so fat? …… Well, it's art processing, art processing!

At this time, the painting boat had already sailed to a ferry. The boatman came and asked, do you want to continue swimming in the river?

"It's getting late, and you two must have had a hard time traveling. Why don't we all go back and rest? Princess Taiping said in a compliant tone.

Xue Shao and Shangguan Wan'er naturally agreed. So the painting boat docked, and the three of them each boarded the carriage waiting at the ferry, and went home.

When he got into the car, Xue Shao couldn't help but look back at the splendid painting boat, and thought: I will actually swim with Princess Taiping and Shangguan Wan'er on the river, and enjoy a wonderful time without distraction...... It's really unpredictable, it's like a dream!.
