The sun has risen three poles, and the city of Chang'an is also prosperous, and even the palace is in the busiest time of the day, but today's East Palace is a little strange, because compared to other places in the palace, today's East Palace is quiet and a little abnormal.

"What about the prince, why don't you get up yet?" In the main hall of the East Palace, Du He asked the inner attendant with an impatient expression.

"This ...... Prince...... The prince said to get up later, please wait! I saw that the waiter also replied with a panicked face at this time, Li Chengqian was reluctant to get up, and they didn't dare to urge the waiter, but Du He in front of him was also anxious to see the prince, and they were also angry on both sides when they were caught in the middle.

"Hmph, it's a little while, it's been a few days, we haven't even seen the prince's face, what is the prince doing in the palace?" Du He was young and vigorous, and he hadn't seen Li Chengqian's face for a few days, so he finally couldn't help the anger in his heart and asked.

"Brother Du is angry, the prince definitely didn't mean not to see us, maybe something was delayed." At this moment, I saw that Zhao Jie, who had always been calm, stood up and said to Du He.

"What else can I do, isn't it because of that ......"

"Brother Du is cautious, you must know that trouble comes from your mouth!" didn't wait for Du He to finish speaking, only to see Zhao Jie shouting and angrily reprimanding, which finally woke Du He up, and couldn't help but show a sneering expression at the moment, turned his head and sat on the chair without speaking again.

In fact, the reason why Li Chengqian didn't come out to see them, everyone present knew it, but they didn't dare to say it, because this matter was really a little difficult to talk about, and no one thought that Li Chengqian would actually favor a servant, although this servant is more beautiful than a woman, but after all, he is a man.

Of course, things like the habit of broken sleeves have existed for a long time, especially for the nobles who have always been more open in their private lives, and it is not a big deal, but like Li Chengqian, it is still very rare to see people for a few days because of the pampering of the servant named Chengxin, it is no wonder that Du He can't hold his breath.

Speaking of that satisfaction, Du He and the others didn't notice that there was such a person in the East Palace before, of course, this is also normal, after all, just a servant, it is not worth their attention at all, but they didn't expect that just some time ago, I don't know what's going on, Li Chengqian actually pampered this servant, it was nothing at first, but as time went by, Li Chengqian became more and more pampered by this servant, such as this time, I didn't see anyone for a few days, the last time they saw Li Chengqian, Or the day when His Majesty the Emperor returned from Luoyang.

Du He finally sat back in his seat, Zhao Jie looked around, all the officials who came today were the subordinate officials of the East Palace, that is, Li Chengqian's prince team, but during this time, because Li Chengqian was fortunate in that satisfactory thing, these people were all sad, and even some people had a little disappointment in their eyes, which made Zhao Jie also sigh secretly, and sat back in his seat at the moment.

When it was almost noon, Zhao Jie, Du He and others thought that they would not see Li Chengqian again today, but they didn't expect that someone suddenly came to report that the prince was coming, which made them finally shake their spirits and sit up straight one by one.

After a while, I heard a familiar footsteps outside the hall, and then I saw Li Chengqian walking in, although he hadn't seen him for a few days, but his spirit was not bad, which made Zhao Jie and Du He and others also breathe a sigh of relief, but then they found that just behind Li Chengqian, followed by a young man in brocade clothes, which made them all stunned.

I saw that the young man behind Li Chengqian was about fifteen or sixteen years old, although he was wearing men's clothes, but he was a boy and a girl, his facial features were more handsome than that of a woman, and his figure was very graceful when he walked.

Seeing that Li Chengqian actually came to the main hall with this servant, this made Zhao Jie, Du He and the others all look at each other, and when they reacted, they all showed annoyed expressions, after all, this is the place where they usually discuss things, and ordinary idle people are not allowed to approach at all, mainly to avoid the content of the discussion from leaking out, but I didn't expect Li Chengqian to take the lead in breaking this rule.

Thinking of the above, Du He, who was the first to be breathless, couldn't help but want to stand up and question Li Chengqian, but was pulled by Zhao Jie, and then saw him deliberately show a smile and said: "I haven't seen the prince for a few days, I don't know if the prince is unwell, is he better now?" ”

Zhao Jie and the others are all subordinate officials of the East Palace, and the things around Li Chengqian can't be hidden from their eyes at all, so when Li Chengqian and Chengxin were together, they knew the news, but this kind of private fact is inconvenient to ask directly, Zhao Jie was worried that Du He would talk nonsense, which would anger Li Chengqian, so he stopped him and said first.

"Ahem~, this ...... I've been feeling a little unwell these days, but I'm fine now, so I'm worried! I saw Li Chengqian coughing dryly at this time, and then he also followed Zhao Jie's meaning.

In fact, Li Chengqian and Xiangxin have been staying together in the past few days, although at the beginning, he was just a temporary drunken disorder, but when he woke up, he found that although Xiangxin was a man, he was very gentle and considerate, and he was also intellectual, and even more rare and versatile, he was unhappy, he would also find a way to make himself happy, this feeling made him really reluctant to leave the other party.

"It's best that the prince is in good health, speaking of which, His Majesty has been back for a while, and now he is dealing with those backlog of government affairs, and the prince must also walk around His Majesty more!" I saw Zhao Jie speak again at this time.

"I know, I'll go when I have time!" Li Chengqian nodded and said, but there was a bit of perfunctory meaning in his tone, because of the incident in the Longmen Grottoes, Li Chengqian also had a little complaint about Li Shimin in his heart, so if it was not necessary, he really didn't want to see the other party.

"His Royal Highness the Prince, you haven't seen anyone in the past few days, Kong Yingda, Yu Zhining and others have also come several times, but they have all been blocked by us, but if we don't see them all the time, I'm afraid they will report to Your Majesty again!" Du He finally stood up again at this time, but he calmed down a little and put pressure on Li Chengqian through Kong Yingda and others.

Hearing Du He mention Kong Yingda and Yu Zhining and others, Li Chengqian couldn't help frowning, although Sun Yingda and others were also subordinate officials of the East Palace, they were not the same as Du He and others, because they were sent by their father Li Shimin, and their main task was to supervise themselves, and to put it mildly, they were to supervise themselves, so Li Chengqian had to scruple about these people.

"Okay, tomorrow I will personally summon Kong Yingda and them, and I won't be so willful anymore." Li Chengqian actually understood what Zhao Jie and Du He meant, so after thinking about it for a while, he finally admitted his mistake in his words.

Hearing Li Chengqian's mansion, Zhao Jie, Du He and others were also relieved, and they didn't dwell on this matter anymore, after all, Li Chengqian is the crown prince, and they can't be too much to cause subordinates, and the necessary face still has to be reserved for Li Chengqian.

At the same time that Li Chengqian and Du He's henchmen were deliberating, in Li Xiu's study outside the city, I saw Li Xiu sitting behind the desk at this time, although he was holding a book in his hand, his eyes did not fall on the book at all, but he looked at the corner of the study in a daze, and his mind was also thinking about what Ma Ye told him about Li Chengqian last time.

"Satisfied, I didn't expect history to repeat itself again." After a long while, I saw that Li Xiu finally grew out of his breath and whispered, but when he said this, he couldn't help but show a little lost look on his face.

In fact, in the official history of the Central Plains dynasties, there are many historical events related to homosexuality, such as the famous broken sleeve fetish, but if it is the most influential, I am afraid it will be Li Chengqian and Chengxin, because this incident is also the key to directly causing Li Chengqian's rebellious heart.

Li Xiu, who came from later generations, has no special opinion on homosexuality, as long as it doesn't hurt others, but there is an exception, that is, if his son becomes gay, I'm afraid Li Xiu will not be able to accept it, after all, as a father, he doesn't want his son to choose such a path that is not accepted by the world.

Li Xiu, who traveled from later generations, couldn't accept that his son had become gay, let alone Li Shimin, and according to Li Xiu's understanding of Li Shimin, I am afraid that he could not accept this kind of thing happening to his son more than ordinary people.

Fortunately, there are not many people who know about Li Chengqian's heart, except for a small number of people in the East Palace, only the high-level of the Feinu Division like Ma Ye knows, because the Feinu Division has a branch that specializes in monitoring the movements of the Imperial Inner Palace, although this institution is not controlled by Ma Ye, but after all, it nominally belongs to the Feinu Division, so some information Ma Ye can also have access.

After Ma Ye learned about Li Chengqian's forbidden love, he immediately found Li Xiu to discuss, he mainly couldn't make up his mind, whether to report this matter to Li Shimin? And Li Xiu almost didn't think about it, so he immediately told Ma Ye not to report it, because he clearly knew the serious consequences of this matter, and if Ma Ye reported this matter, maybe he would be responsible in the future.

Ma Ye trusted Li Xiu very much, and saw that he opposed the report, so he gave up this idea, after all, although Fei Nu Si is directly responsible to Li Shimin, the information collected every day is too amazing, and it is impossible to report it all, so he has the right to filter out some unimportant information, but things like Li Chengqian and Xiangxin, even if Fei Nu Si does not report, I am afraid that it will not be hidden for too long.
