Xue Shao saw Li Xiaoyi enjoying polo on the sidelines for a while, so he got together with Zhou Jitong and Siyudao and others in Zuo Fengchen's position. Mixed in the bustle and noise, the old man seemed to be teaching the opportunity in person, and the group also glanced at Xue Shao from time to time.

It seems that something is wrong.

Xue Shao left the tent and walked out, and he didn't let Princess Taiping ask for any imperial doctor with great fanfare. Princess Taiping glared at Xue Shao in annoyance, and then called Linlang to her side.

"What does Your Highness command?" The two sisters hugged their fists together.

"Lynn, stand where I can slap me in the face!" Princess Taiping said coldly.

Lin'er felt a chill in her heart, guessing that it was probably because the "flower thief" was leaked that night, and she stepped forward and walked to Princess Taiping's side in fear.

"The pestle is so high, show off that you have two long legs, believe it or not Hongu chop them off?" Princess Taiping said hatefully.

"Your Highness's forgiveness!" Lin'er screamed in surprise and hurriedly knelt down and obediently stretched her face in front of Princess Taiping.

Princess Taiping looked at Lin'er's beautiful face that was as cold as frost when she was ninety percent, and she couldn't get angry, and stretched out a hand to grab her ear and twisted it ninety degrees, "You little slut, when did you run to have a bang with Xue Lang?" ”

Lin'er didn't dare to make any painful expressions, and honestly and concisely explained what happened that night.

Princess Taiping was angry and curious, "Aren't you very happy that you are sneaking around like a thief?" ”

"Shang ...... Can! Lin'er had a bitter face and held back two words.

Princess Taiping's girl's curiosity was picked off at once, and she let go of her hand, "Tell me quickly, how you dodged those guards, how you climbed the wall, how you jumped out of the window, what you did first when you entered the house, how Xue Lang took off your clothes, how the two of you snapped, how long and how many times you snapped, how you walked at dawn - all from the truth!" ”

Lin'er was dumbfounded, and looked around, "Your Highness, what are you talking about here?" ”

Princess Taiping was stunned, yes, in public, you can't prostitute yourself in the daytime.

"Go back to the palace, go back to the palace!!" Princess Taiping's strength has come up, and today she has to be punished. Listening to Lin'er tell these fragrant stories is much more interesting than squatting here to watch a polo game!

Lin'er is scared and funny, His Royal Highness has been to Tongshi to study a few times recently, and he is full of curiosity about men and women.

Princess Taiping got up and was about to leave, but Zhu Bajie hurriedly said: "Your Highness, I'm afraid it's a little disrespectful to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to leave like this." Did His Highness send a little slave over to inform him? ”

Princess Taiping thought for a moment, "I'll go over in person!" ”

Xue Shao walked to Li Xiaoyi and the others, and Zhou Jitong solemnly hugged his hand to Xue Shao in public, "General Xue!" ”

It seems to be an ordinary salute in the army, but Zhou Jitong is Xue Shao's officer, and this salute seems to be a little reversed. And the two of them had a thousand bulls talking about martial arts before, so they should be enemies.

Just this simple bow made everyone understand in their hearts that Zhou Jitong was announcing in public that he had "turned enemies into friends" with Xue Shao. There is no doubt that he must have received the secret help of Xue Shao behind him, so he attacked Li Xiantong in public to fight for the position of general!

"Zhou Zhonglang is so majestic today, admire!" Xue Shao returned the salute and said to Li Xiaoyi, "Li Lianggong seems to have something important to preach, and he is waiting for his subordinates to come and listen?" ”

Li Xiaoyi said with a straight smile: "Originally, the old man wanted to go back to the Wei Mansion to summon everyone to discuss again, but it was rare for everyone to be here, so I just talked about it." Xue Gongzi is accompanying the princess, and the old man doesn't dare to disturb him! ”

Xue Shao smiled, "Xue is a minister of the imperial court, and he should take public office first. Li Lianggong, please speak! ”

Li Xiaoyi nodded and said, "The old man is old, and he is already overwhelmed by the position of two guards. A few days ago, the old man had already submitted his resignation, and wanted to resign from the post of general Zuo Fengchenwei of the school, and asked the court to choose another person to replace the old man. ”

Zhou Jitong hurriedly said: "Li Liang is in his heyday, why do you say this? ”

Although it is a polite sentence, everyone knows it in their hearts after listening to it, the ancient virtue of "three concessions and then acceptance", Zhou Jitong is just using humble words to express his respect for Li Xiaoyi. There is a layer of intention under the words - this successor is none other than Zhou Jitong, there is a response to sing and a chorus, this is how it can be done!

Li Xiaoyi waved his hand and said with a smile: "Zhou Zhonglang doesn't have to comfort the old man, the old man's own body, energy and talent are all counted in his heart." The old man has been in the position of general of Fengchenwei for several years, and he has not made any achievements, and it is long overdue to abdicate and make way for Xian. Zhou Zhonglang has been working in Zuo Fengchenwei for ten years, and has won the trust and respect of His Majesty, and the generals under him also respect Zhou Zhonglang, and he is really the best candidate to replace the old man - I don't know you, what do you think? ”

Xue Shao wants to laugh, you, the boss, have said it so obviously, how can we express our position except for annexation?

So everyone followed along and said, Li Lianggong is high, and we have no objection.

"Good, good. For the general, the first thing is to be able to convince the public, and everyone's wishes, the old man will definitely listen to the sky and report to the prime ministers of the governor's office. Li Xiaoyi nodded and said, "Of course, who the imperial court wants to appoint as Zuo Fengchenwei's general is not up to the old man and you people to have the final say." Specifically, it is still up to the imperial court to decide. Regardless of who was appointed as a general, everyone must unanimously support the decision of the imperial court. Remember? ”

"Yes!"

Xue Shao carefully and patiently pondered every sentence of Li Xiaoyi, although it was a high-sounding official language, but it contained a lot of deep meaning, and it was also a wise philosophy for officials.

Li Xiaoyi's words expressed three meanings, first, he was optimistic about and supported Zhou Jitong to take over the post of general; Second, he only conducted a "poll" on behalf of His Majesty and the Political Affairs Hall, and he did not have the right to directly appoint and dismiss; In other words, once Zhou Jitong really became a general, this was the common recognition of His Majesty and the Prime Minister, and this official position was justified; Third, that is, he left a back road for himself, in case Ji Tong failed to be this general, then it is no wonder that I am Li, that is the meaning of the top.

Xue Shao sighed in his heart, this is called listening to your words is better than reading a book for ten years, it is really a long knowledge. The older the ginger is, the spicier it is, and the more the official is done, the more sleek it becomes. Li Xiaoyi's words not only bought people's hearts and made favors, but also pushed the possible risk responsibility cleanly.

This is also an old fox, no wonder he is deeply favored by the two saints. As a relative of Li Tang's emperor, he is especially reused and trusted by the queen!

After explaining the big things clearly, Li Xiaoyi stayed here and chatted with everyone for a while, and then said goodbye and went first.

At this time, Princess Taiping walked to the sidelines and invited the crown prince Li Xian to her side, the brother and sister gossiped for a while, and Zhu Bajie immediately trotted over, "General Xue, His Royal Highness the prince is invited!" ”

Xue Shao blinked and walked over to salute.

"General Xue, the widow heard that you are about to organize a roasted tail feast, right?" Li Xian asked.

Xue Shao didn't know what he meant, so he had to answer yes.

"The widow heard Taiping, your new house is still being renovated, lest it be inconvenient to entertain guests." Li Xian said, "In this way, the widow will lend you the Pleasant Heart Hall of Furong Garden, and you will have a banquet there!" ”

The Royal Garden of Furong Garden was built in the Sui Dynasty, and Emperor Taizong Li Shimin once gave the Furong Garden to Li Tai, the king of Wei, as a sign of favor. Later, Li Tai was demoted, and Furong Garden was given to the crown prince Li Zhi. Later, Furong Garden has always been given to the current prince, which is a symbolic welfare property for the prince, which has become an unwritten rule.

Xue Shao wanted to excuse himself, but after thinking about it, he arched his hand and said, "His Royal Highness Prince Xie!" ”

"General Xue will be our family sooner or later, you don't have to be polite." Li Xian smiled and said, "If there is anything else you can help, just ask." But if few people are within their reach, they will never shirk! ”

"Thank you His Royal Highness the Crown Prince for your kindness, the rest of the things can be taken care of by the ministers, so I won't bother the prince!" Xue Shao said.

"Okay, okay." Li Xian laughed a few times, laughed quite silly, and without saying more, he rode on the horse again to play his polo.

Princess Taiping had been watching quietly from the sidelines, without saying a word.

After Li Xian left, Xue Shao asked, "Your Highness, did you take the initiative to mention it?" ”

"Do you think I will?" Princess Taiping took two steps closer, leaned closer and said, "It's the meaning of the prince himself." ”

Xue Shao frowned, I have nothing to do with the crown prince, he borrowed a place for me to hold a banquet for no reason, it should be for the face of Princess Taiping, and at the same time, he is also turning a corner to please his strong queen mother. For me, the Hibiscus Garden is a royal garden, and the Yixin Hall is a place where a royal family of Princess Taiping can rest and play. Let me Xue Shao set up a roasted tail banquet there to invite the ministers, that is a great honor, and it is also a great publicity.

"Looks like you're not very happy to appreciate it?" Princess Taiping asked.

"No displeasure." Xue Shao said: "It's just natural to think that my little six-rank official is too flamboyant and easy to be hated. ”

Princess Taiping smiled and said, "If you only set up a roast tail banquet in your own home, you will really lose your identity." ”

"......" When Xue Shao heard her words, he understood what he meant. The sixth rank official is not important, the important thing is that you Xue Shao is about to become Princess Taiping's concubine. How can the scale of your feast be equal to that of ordinary courtiers?

The way people who think and see things in a royal way is different from ordinary people. Before they do anything, they will first consider whether this matter is in line with the identity of the royal family!

The nobility and pride of the royal family are inherently inherent. However, this pattern of their behavior cannot simply be regarded as a kind of show-off and luxury, but as the political needs of "the royal family in the world" - the world is the family, and the royal family is the master. The master does things, of course, he can't be the same as the retainers and slaves!

"The Pleasant Palace is very good and spacious!" Xue Shao said.

Princess Taiping seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, smiled, and said, "Fortunately, you didn't shirk again or frequently scruples, otherwise, I would have been disappointed." ”

Xue Shao smiled and said, "What's so disappointing about this? ”

"If you are just blindly afraid of being jealous and hated and are timid, it means that you are not ready to be the concubine of the Tang Dynasty." Princess Taiping said.

Xue Shao smiled indifferently and said, "Your Highness was born to be the most noble princess of Taiping in the Tang Dynasty, and she is loved by thousands of people. Marrying you not only means supreme beauty, but also means bearing the same pressure and responsibility. Rest assured, I have long had this realization. ”

"This is the current Xue Lang in my heart, you should be more confident than anyone else." Princess Taiping's beautiful eyes were bright and she smiled.

Xue Shao smiled, "Is it a compliment?" ”

"I'll go first." Princess Taiping did not answer and walked forward. I didn't take a few steps, but I looked back and smiled.

For a while, Xue Shao was a little in a trance.

He seemed to have returned to his youth in his previous life, walking at the intersection of coming home from school, watching An Xiaorou turn into the street where her community was located with her schoolbag, turning around and smiling and waving at him, saying that we would go to eat soy milk fritters from the old store on North Street tomorrow morning, and we would see you there!

Spanning thousands of years and two lives, Xue Shao saw such a girl's smile again. It is warm and bright, so that the heart of a man who has been indifferent to the vicissitudes of life also thumps, and in an instant, relive the feelings of first love.

Xue Shao suddenly had a nonsensical impulse to step forward and stop Princess Taiping, and said to her, tomorrow morning, see you or leave!

In full view of everyone, Princess Taiping gradually walked away with a group of her close attendants.

Xue Shao quietly watched Princess Taiping board the car, and his mind seemed to return to reality.

An Xiaorou is a quiet and gentle girl next door, and Princess Taiping is the proud daughter of the Tang Empire. Two girls with god-like faces but completely different hearts, in different lives, gave me the same feelings.

Precious, irreplaceable!.
