Emperor Yang Guang of the Sui Ming Dynasty had two daughters, one was the princess of Nanyang, who married Yu Wenshi when Yang Guang had not yet ascended the throne, and the other was the princess Lingxiu in front of him.

Princess Lingxiu has just turned fifteen years old, and her delicate melon seed face still has a hint of immaturity. However, Princess Lingxiu's figure, like most women, is slightly bloated, which makes her look very incongruous.

Li Xuanba saw that Princess Lingxiu was looking at him, with anger in his cold eyes, he hurriedly lowered his head, not daring to look at Princess Lingxiu.

"Xuanba is seriously ill, and he can no longer afford the name of loyalty and bravery." Wan replied calmly, without any regret in his tone. Perhaps in Wan's heart, Li Xuanba can live, it is already a gift from the Buddha, how dare she force something else? Moreover, for the Wan family, Li Xuanba's current situation is more in line with her wishes.

"Yang Ling has seen her aunt." Princess Lingxiu only cared about Li Xuanba, forgetting for a moment that Wan was still kneeling, and when she heard Wan's answer, she hurriedly walked over to help Wan up and did the salute of the juniors.

Li Yuan and Yang Guangnai are cousins, and Yang Ling omitted the table words, but it was more cordial.

"Princess, please go to the mansion to rest for a while, I will let my subordinates prepare and prepare for the princess and you." The Wan clan knew about the grievances between Li Xuanba and Yang Ling, so it was inconvenient to say more, so they could only settle Yang Ling and them first.

Wan accompanied the princess into the house, and the housekeeper had already returned, arranging a place for the princess's attendants to rest, and the father-in-law wanted to return to the palace immediately, but was left behind by the housekeeper. After the father-in-law excused himself, he accepted the kindness of the Li Mansion, and when he entered the mansion, he asked Li Xuanba and the others to get up.

Li Xuanba glanced back and saw that the princess had gone far away, and secretly said that this father-in-law was also very good at being a person.

When the princess walked to Li Xuanba's side, she paused for a moment, but did not let Li Xuanba calm down, indicating that the princess intended to let him kneel for a while.

A red carpet led to the lobby, Li Xuanba stood up, rubbed his sore knees, and complained softly: "Didn't you just make her wait a little longer, as for retaliating like this?" Angry, he said to Li Gou: "If you go shopping in the future, you will be responsible for carrying me on my back." ”

Li Gou glanced at Li Xuanba innocently, and said secretly: You are angry with the princess, why do you sprinkle it on me? However, he also knew that Li Xuanba just said it casually, he just pretended not to hear, lowered his head and played with the corners of his clothes, a picture of an angry little daughter-in-law, which made Li Xuanba feel excited and hurriedly entered the house.

"Li Zhu, do you say that Childe really doesn't know, or does he fake don't know?" After Li Xuanba left, Li Gou got up seriously and said to Li Zhu.

"Madame didn't even tell Gongzi about Zhongyongwei, let alone mention the princess." Li Zhu replied calmly: "With a beautiful past, how can it be so easy to stay away from the court?" ”

Li Gou glanced at Li Xuanba's back and was silent.

"Don't feel sorry for Childe first, think about how to answer Childe's words first." Li Zhu said something inexplicably, and walked towards the street, Li Gou shouted a few words behind him, but Li Zhu turned a deaf ear.

Li Gou seems to be very arrogant, but he is also a careful person, he lowered his head and thought for a moment, and then he understood, but at this time Li Zhu had already fled, and he fled again, but he was afraid that Li Xuanba would not say anything, and the Wan family would not spare him. In desperation, Li Gou could only wait in front of Li Xuanba's room with a black face.

Li Xuanba originally wanted to go to the lobby to apologize to the princess, otherwise the princess would return to the palace to sue him, and then the emperor would cut off his head for the crime of great disrespect, then he would really die unjustly.

Entering the main hall, Yang Ling and Wan were chatting, and as soon as they saw Li Xuanba, Yang Ling's face was pulled down. Li Xuanba stood cheekily behind Wan's side, put on a smiling face, and sincerely apologized.

The corners of Yang Ling's mouth raised, and he snorted, Wan Shi smiled bitterly, and said, "Xuanba, you step back first, I'll talk to the princess, it's a little inconvenient for you to be here." ”

Li Xuanba answered, glanced at Yang Ling again, but saw Yang Ling rolling his eyes at him. Facing the princess, Li Xuanba didn't dare to be angry, still put on a smiling face and withdrew. As soon as he got out of the room, Li Xuanba heard the laughter of Wan and Yang Ling, and he didn't know what happy things he was talking about.

With a depressed mood, Li Xuanba walked towards his room, and saw Li Gou standing in front of the door, also with a depressed expression, so he walked over and asked suspiciously: "Dog, what are you depressed?" ”

"Third son, you're back." Li Gou's face changed quickly, and a smile instantly appeared. In Li Xuanba's opinion, the speed at which Li Gou changed his face was at least not inferior to the pious woman in Guiyue Tower.

"Don't talk nonsense, I'm looking for you." After Li Xuanba finished speaking, he took a few steps towards the door, Li Gou opened the door, and the two walked in one after another.

"Did I know Princess Lingxiu before?" Entering the room, Li Xuanba asked directly, "Have I offended her before?" ”

"How could Childe offend Princess Lingxiu?" Li Gou rolled his eyes, and said with a smile, Li Xuanba turned his head sideways, looked at him quietly, and didn't say a word, Li Gou knew Li Xuanba's actions too well, and usually Li Xuanba would say: I will watch you pretend quietly.

"Ahem." Li Gou coughed lightly, knowing that if he didn't tell the truth again, he was likely to touch his head, so he continued: "Childe, you don't call it offending, that's humiliation, that's hatred. This is also what Li Xuanba often says, and he is very proficient in using it.

"Getting to the point." When Li Xuanba heard Li Gou's words, he secretly said that the original Li Xuanba really caused a lot of trouble.

"At the beginning, His Majesty personally conquered Goguryeo and ordered Yang Xuangan to supervise the grain, but he didn't expect Yang Xuangan to feel the ambition of the wolf, so he actually withheld the grain and grass, rebelled in Liyang, and soon after, he surrounded Luoyang, and the generals of the imperial court at that time either guarded the border, or followed His Majesty to the expedition, Luoyang fell into crisis." Li Gou paused, put on a heroic expression, and continued: "At this time, you, the son of Luoyang, killed dozens of Yang Xuangan's generals with your own strength, forcing Yang Xuangan to retreat west, so as to save Luoyang. ”

Li Xuanba knew that Li Gou's words were a bit exaggerated, but he didn't interrupt and let Li Gou continue to speak.

"Later, His Majesty's class returned to the dynasty and named Gongzi as a loyal and brave guard, which is an official position specially set up by His Majesty for Gongzi." Li Gou talked about the excitement, and spat flew: "At the same time, Your Majesty wanted to marry Princess Lingxiu to Gongzi, but I didn't expect Gongzi to say that Princess Lingxiu was too thin in front of all the ministers, so don't." ”

Speaking of this, Li Gou didn't continue to speak, because he saw that Li Xuanba had opened his mouth wide in shock.

"You mean, I rejected His Majesty's offer of marriage? And the reason is that Princess Lingxiu is too thin? After a long time, Li Xuanba recovered from the shock and said in disbelief: "Your Majesty Chrysostom is opened, is it still allowed for me to oppose it?" ”

"This, at that time, the prince was a little different from ordinary people, His Majesty naturally would not blame, and the ministers in the court also laughed at it, but after the princess heard the news, it was naturally impossible to laugh at it, and the princess treated you like that just now, it was definitely revenge." Li Gou said indignantly.

"Since you know, then you can go to the princess for me to theorize." Li Xuanba glanced at Li Gou and said lightly, Li Gou immediately shrank his head into his neck, Li Xuanba snorted and asked again: "At the beginning, I really disliked the princess for being too thin?" ”

Thinking of Princess Lingxiu's bloated body, Li Xuanba shuddered, and at the same time admired the real Li Xuanba's taste very much.
