In an elegant teahouse in Luoyang City, Li Hong and Li Chuyuan sat by the window, and a trace of cold wind stubbornly penetrated from the gap in the closed window, which made people feel a little drowsy in the warm tea room, and felt a burst of clarity, coupled with the hot tea in their hands, it also seemed quite comfortable.

"What's going on? Can it be returned to your eyes? Li Hong asked as if exchanging information with the spies, lying on the desk, looking at Li Chuyuan's calm cheeks.

"What's going on?" Li Chuyuan, who didn't react at first, looked at Li Hong and was stunned, and asked reflexively.

"Man, look at ......." Li Hong quietly opened a small gap in the window, and a cold wind blew in, which immediately made Li Chuyuan shiver, and just about to stop Li Hong from closing the window, he heard Li Hong continue: "Look, standing like a war spear, thick eyebrows and big eyes, tall figure, can be literate and martial, and knows how to be romantic...... Don't understand romance? It's just going to live at home, don't you understand? It will make you happy every day, and it will make you like a princess...... Well, you're the county lord now, and you're not much different from a princess. ”

"But it's not ...... to fight and kill every day. Well, isn't it too rude, if you can be elegant ....... Li Chuyuan held her chin and looked at Xu Yanbo, who was standing outside, she had been observing for a few days, and she was satisfied in all aspects, but she always felt that it would be better to be as elegant and polite as her father.

Compared with other dynasties, women at this time were much more open and autonomous than other dynasties in terms of the concept of men and women, as well as the degree of autonomy in marriage.

Even not only princes and nobles, but also the daughters of ordinary people's families, have a great deal of autonomy in their marriages, and if they are not satisfied with the man, the woman can completely veto this family matter by herself.

There will not be things like other dynasties, where the orders of parents and the words of matchmakers cannot be changed, and the social status of women is still very high at this moment, and men and women are relatively equal.

Therefore, when Li Chuyuan and Li Hong discuss their family affairs, they will not have the appearance of a girl's family, and their down-to-earth and generous manners are much more pleasing to the eye than the kind that moans without disease.

"It's not rude, it's not rude at all, it's just your impression that is at work, not to mention that people rely on clothes and horses to rely on saddles, wait for tomorrow, I will let him change into a literati outfit for you to take a look again, I guarantee that he will become like Uncle Ji Wang, elegant and graceful." Li Hong said for Xu Yanbo.

Li Chuyuan tilted his head and glanced at him, and muttered: "So what, that can't change the essence of his fighting, killing and killing, I think it's better to think about it, and after Chang'an, how to explain it to the queen." ”

"You are the county lord of the second grade, and he is the founding marquis of the third grade, which is not bad, although it is Gao Pan...... Well, how about I transfer him out of the army and into the civilian service? You say, what official position do you think is suitable for him? What is the Jingyang County Order? It just so happens that I recently saw that Jingyang County's order is not pleasing to the eye, how about changing Xu Yanbo? Li Hong also gave up for Li Chuyuan's family affairs.

But I didn't want to, but in exchange for Li Chuyuan's big eyes and disdain: "Do you know who the Jingyang County Commander is?" You are His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, can you remember who the Jingyang County Commander is? I don't believe it. ”

"Do you agree or disagree? The queen appointed you, and you vetoed it so hastily, are you worthy of my mother and your father? Doesn't your conscience hurt? Someone rebuked bitterly.

Li Chuyuan had a calm face, a pair of beautiful eyes, and after Li Hong closed the window, he stared straight at Li Hong, until he looked at Li Hong a little uncomfortable, and then said slowly: "You are so trying to encourage me to agree, it's not as simple as sympathizing with the soldiers around you, not to mention that I have heard a long time ago, this Xu Yanbo is loyal to you, and he is obedient, what is the purpose of you wholeheartedly matching the two of us?" ”

Li Hong looked aggrieved and defended: "What is this called, I am for your good, why did it become my ulterior purpose?" ”

"Have you done something to make the queen angry again, so you are anxious to use my marriage to appease the queen's anger against you? Li Dan and Li Lingyue have been used by you like this, and you did this when I was by the queen's side. Li Chuyuan's eyes are bright and deep, so that someone has nothing to hide.

"You may not believe it, I really think that you are destined, and I sincerely hold the sincerity of wishing that there are lovers in the world who will eventually become married, and I hope that you can fly with wings and be a branch." Li Hong refused to admit that the two were matched to please the queen mother and to replace the crown princess.

"Then I'll think again." Li Chuyuan looked at Li Hong's sincere and frank eyes uneasily, and said cautiously.

Xu Yanbo, who was in the cold wind outside, involuntarily sneezed several times when the two were talking, always feeling like someone was plotting against him.

The big wedding of King Pei Li Xian gave Li Zhi an excellent excuse to quit the dynasty, no matter how big or small officials in Chang'an City, in the few days of King Pei's wedding, they did not have to be in the last court, except for the few political affairs in the winter, the officials of the entire Chang'an City began to be like a flock of sheep that were released, crowded with the corners and corners of Chang'an City.

Or reminiscing, or looking for friends, or visiting relatives, or after the snow a few days ago, go out of Chang'an to enjoy the snow, enjoy the plum, boil wine and tea, chant poems, in short, just like Chang'an during this time, because of King Pei's wedding and become very lively.

The folk also began to circulate, why did His Royal Highness the Crown Prince never get married, why did King Pei get married? His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is kind-hearted, abides by the etiquette law, and is affectionate and courteous with the prospective crown princess, unlike King Pei and the princess, who have already stolen the forbidden fruit.

Although these things are nothing in the royal family, especially for the prince, it is a common occurrence to play a little molesting the palace maid and sleeping with the palace maid, so the princes born to the palace people are not a few in all dynasties and generations, there is a reason.

But in all the discussions, there were some vicious messages, which made Fang Xianzhong and others uneasy and worried: The reason why His Royal Highness the Crown Prince failed to complete the wedding before King Pei was because King Pei secretly prevented it.

What the? King Pei actually sent someone to secretly plot to assassinate His Royal Highness the Crown Prince when His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was inspecting Jiangnan?

What the? The reason why His Royal Highness the Crown Prince failed to complete the wedding before King Pei was because he was assassinated by King Pei again in Xingyang?

What the? Yang Sijian, the father of the crown princess, and Yang Zhirou, the servant of the ministry, actually teamed up with King Pei to conspire to kill His Royal Highness the Prince?

In short, Chang'an, which has become more lively because of King Pei's wedding, is also surging because of these undercurrents, which makes some people worry and sleep restlessly.

These rumors, at this moment, have been circulating in the streets, but they have gradually spread from the west city to the east city like locusts transiting, and they are completely uncontrolled.

Fang Xianzhong did not look red and high-spirited in the past few days because it was his daughter Fang Muqing's big day, but he had a sad face and sighed.

Fang Xianzhong, who had just come out of the mansion of Zong Chuke, the chief official of Jingzhao Mansion, looked at the door of Zong Chuke's mansion, and on this happy day, an ominous premonition rose in his heart.

"Go to King Pei's Mansion." Fang Xianzhong commanded the sedan chair man, and then got into the sedan chair, and then continued to sigh uneasily.

Originally, I hoped that on the grounds of King Pei's happy day, I hoped that Zong Chuke could order someone to stop and suppress such rumors that were unfavorable to King Pei.

But obviously he lowered Zong Chuke's tough attitude, and in the face of his threat in the name of King Pei, Zong Chuke was not afraid, shaking his head and brushing his beard on the side of the people.

even regarded these comments as conclusive news, as if he had inquired about the authenticity.

No wind and no waves? Could it really be His Royal Highness the Crown Prince? In order to discredit King Pei and suppress the contenders for the crown prince's position, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince began to fight back?

But what kind of purpose can such gossip achieve? Or did he feel the pressure before King Pei's wedding, and he was forced to make this decision?

Others may believe that Cao Wang and others were killed by Li Jingye, but they and Pei Wang know very well who Cao Wang and others died in.

The rumors stop at the wise, this is the thing that Li Xian, who is now preparing to be the groom's official, hopes the most, at this moment, for the first time, he hopes that the people of the entire Chang'an City can reach the height of the wise man.

In the face of Li Zhe's subtle and clever learning of the messages in the market, Li Xian's face was gloomy like a flying frost June, extremely dark.

"When the fifth child comes back, it's good to clarify it in the face of the world, you don't have to worry too much, you are about to become a groom official, you still have to pay attention to your body." Li Zhe squeezed his eyebrows, this year, he soaked in the barracks every day, and the whole person had a little more masculinity and bravery, and he looked more like a fierce and brave prince.

"It's just gossip, some people's unintentional words, how can I take it seriously, I'm just worried that this will make the fifth child think about it more, and the brothers who are not in harmony will not make the father and mother worry?" Li Xian looked at the entire renovated palace, and he still couldn't be happy in his heart no matter what.

Li Zhe looked at Li Xian's worried face and chuckled: "That's good, since you still know that the discord between brothers is the last thing your father and mother want to see, then I'm relieved, by the way, do you know when the fifth brother will come back?" ”

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's whereabouts, how can we guess at will? However, my wedding is imminent, and as the crown prince, he has never shown up, doesn't this make people in the world really think that I am squeezing him out and snatching the crown prince with him? If he doesn't appear again, I'm afraid that even his father and mother will have a lot of complaints about him. Li Xian shook his head and said.

"That's right, but your big wedding is in front of the fifth child, and you haven't been able to come back, so you have to take care of it more, but I heard that it's coming soon, and you will be back in two or three days, you know, along the way, the fifth child was assassinated in Xingyang, and almost lost his life, at that time, the entire Chang'an City was rumored, and you may be made the prince by your father and mother, after your wedding. But...... Fortunately, the old five are fine, and they finally rushed back, otherwise, even if you are made the prince, this old five will come back, do you say that you will return or not? Okay, let's not talk about it, I'm leaving, don't be too little in the gift money, I'm not as rich as the fifth child, by the way, Bai Chun has arrived in Chang'an. Li Zhe's last sentence scared Li Xian so much that he almost sat on the ground.
