"Tang Ao, Taiping rarely has the opportunity to leave the palace, he doesn't know the outside world, but he is full of longing, you can tell her more interesting things about the life of ordinary people in a while, so that she can be happier."

Tang Ao listened to Li Xian's instructions and nodded yes.

A group of people walked into the Taiping Temple, the Taoist temple is very deserted, the Sanqing Hall made of white marble looks very small, enshrines the Sanqing Patriarch of Taoism, respectively, the Yuan Shi Tianzun, Lingbao Tianzun, Daode Tianzun, are carved with Hetian white jade, and have the charm of the fairy wind and bones.

Tang Ao was originally a small novice in the Biochemical Temple, and it is said that he was closer to the Buddhists, but he was so injured by Xuyan that he almost died, and because of the cultivation and study of the Taoist scriptures, he gained a lot of benefits, and looked natural and pleasing to the Taoist Sanqing Patriarch.

"Brother?" Taiping's little head came out from behind, she was very happy to see Li Xian, among the several brothers, it was Li Xian who treated her closely, she naturally reciprocated Li, every time she saw Li Xian, the smile on her face did not fade.

"Huh? Isn't this the elder brother wearing small clothes? Princess Taiping saw Tang Ao who got up after kowtowing to the Sanqing Patriarch, and looked at Tang Ao's dress in surprise.

Not only are the clothes worn by Li Xian, but even the goldfish bag around his waist is Li Xian's, which is obviously not in line with etiquette.

Li Xian saw that Tang Ao's face was slightly pale, and said with a smile: "It's okay, the gold and silver threads have been pulled out, the handwriting in the goldfish talisman has also been crossed out, and I have also seen other clothes, how can I not wear Tang Aofeng's appearance like jade, it is still suitable." ”

Tang Ao is familiar with poetry and books, and knows that the word of etiquette cannot be broken, Li Xian's mind is good, but the clothes of the prince and the prince can be worn by a grass child, so he made up his mind to return the clothes and goldfish charms to Li Xian after he went back.

The eunuch palace maid was busy preparing the meal, Li Xian greeted Tang Ao and said: "Tang Ao, Taiping always shouts to go out of the palace with me, I am doubly careful when I go out, for fear of being known by those imperial historians, wouldn't it be self-inflicted hardship to take her out, you tell Taiping about the ordinary interesting things outside, lest she think that there is anything good outside!" ”

This is difficult for Tang Ao, who immediately told all kinds of interesting things that happened in the West Market, such as the bad guy arresting the fugitive and catching the wrong person, a certain butcher slaughtering a dog but being bitten and jumping on his feet, and being mistaken for a Jiangyang thief in the rivers and lakes.

Princess Taiping listened to the eyes, Tang Ao told the anecdotes, but the small things in the market, but it is a world she can't imagine, although there are only a few neighborhoods, but the palace and the market, after all, there is an insurmountable gap.

"Is it true that the monkey steals peaches?" Princess Taiping held her chin with both hands, and when she heard Tang Ao say that playing monkey artists can make monkeys turn into fairy monkeys and steal the peaches in the bowl, she asked with great interest.

Tang Ao smiled, in order to understand the doubts of the fairy monkey stealing peaches, he had suffered a lot back then, and the monkey trickster was entangled before he agreed to teach him.

After learning it, Tang Ao suddenly realized, and in retrospect, he realized that the fairy monkey stealing peaches was just a trick.

"Peaches don't have this season, I have a few pennies, so let's show it for the prince and the princess!"

Princess Taiping smiled and high-fived, hearing that Tang Ao needed three bowls, and she didn't care how to respect the Sanqing Patriarch, so she borrowed the three bowls on the table, and Tang Ao, who saw it, couldn't stop shouting guilt in her heart.

Tang Ao took out three copper coins, tied them together with grass as peaches, and then used a bowl to buckle the copper coins upside down, and the three porcelain bowls moved back and forth on the table, and after arranging them in a line, he said with a smile: "Your Royal Highness the princess, Lord Wang, can you guess that the copper coins are in that bowl?" ”

"This." Princess Taiping's eyes have been staring at that bowl! Pointing to one of the porcelain bowls, he said firmly, "It must be in here." ”

Li Xian pointed to another bowl: "I guess it should be here." ”

Tang Ao first opened the bowl that Princess Taiping said, but it was empty, and Princess Taiping was stunned.

Immediately after unlocking the bowl designated by Li Xian, it was also empty, and the interest of Li Xian and Princess Taiping was attracted, Princess Taiping pointed to the bowl that was still upside down: "Is it here?" ”

"Here...... Nor did it. Tang Ao opened the third bowl, and there was still no trace of the copper coin in it, which made Li Xian and Princess Taiping look straight in their eyes, could it be that the copper coin really disappeared? This kind of method is simply unheard of!

Tang Ao looked at the incomprehensible appearance of Li Xian's brother and sister, and couldn't help but think of the scene when he was bluffed, it was exactly the same, and he even dug in the ground for a long time!

"Look, there are no three bowls, where are they? I'm going to get the copper coins back. Tang Ao turned the porcelain bowls upside down one by one again.

"Your Royal Highness Princess, do you want the copper coins in that bowl?" Tang Ao asked Princess Taiping to choose a porcelain bowl.

After all, Princess Taiping was young, so she opened a bowl again to make sure that there were no copper coins included, and then pointed and said, "I think the copper coins are in this bowl." ”

"Okay!"

Tang Ao moved the other two porcelain bowls again, but his hand pressed the bowl designated by Princess Taiping, and after arranging it, he uncovered the bowl under his hand.

A magical scene appeared, three copper coins appeared under the bowl out of thin air, where had Li Xian and Princess Taiping seen such skills, and they all inhaled.

Li Xian decided to take Tang Ao as a companion reading boy, in addition to casting an eye for Tang Ao, he also felt that although Tang Ao was young, he knew the Four Books and Five Classics, and it was a pity that he was in the market committee, but he didn't expect Tang Ao to have such skills, which really shocked him.

Princess Taiping was even more excited, and begged Tang Ao to change the copper coin a few times, and then had the same idea as Tang Ao back then: "Tang Ao, can you hand over this ability to me?" I will let my father and mother make you a big official, and let you be the prime minister. ”

Li Xian couldn't say childlike like Princess Taiping, but he also looked at Tang Ao with hope: "Tang Ao, how did you do it?" Do you really know how to spell? ”

Tang Ao couldn't help but laugh again: "Your Highness doesn't know, this is just a means for people in the market to make a living, there is a way that is difficult will not, and it is not difficult for those who will know, in fact, in addition to a quick word, there is also a trick to trick the eyes, as long as I say it, the two Highnesses will understand everything." ”

Princess Taiping heard that she could also learn, so she immediately urged: "Speak quickly, teach me quickly, and I will also be an immortal." ”

Tang Ao immediately slowed down his movements, explained how to attract the attention of others by his actions, and then how to steal the dragon and turn the phoenix, hid the copper coin in his hand, and pressed it under the bowl at the moment of opening the bowl, and told Li Xian and Princess Taiping 1510.

"I see." Li Xian understood the trick of the fairy monkey stealing peaches after watching it, and couldn't help but shake his head and smile bitterly, if Tang Ao didn't say it, he wouldn't be able to figure it out if he wanted to!

Princess Taiping couldn't wait to learn and sell now, but the result was always wrong, and she couldn't perform this trick coherently, so she naturally wore it again and again, and her little face was red when she was annoyed, and she didn't even have the mind to eat.

After trying hard again and failing, Princess Taiping stopped playing, but stared at Tang Ao with bright eyes: "Tang Ao, tomorrow is the birthday of my grandmother Rong Guo's birthday, can you go with me, let my grandmother also see the fairy monkey stealing peaches, her old man will be very happy, I will let people prepare peaches, there must be peaches in the queen mother's garden, just take them to celebrate my grandmother's birthday." ”

Li Xian heard Princess Taiping mention Mrs. Rongguo's birthday, and his brows furrowed slightly: "Tang Ao, you will follow Taiping tomorrow!" Remember to stay with Taiping, lest you be asked about the monkey stealing the peach, the monkey stealing the peach is our secret, and we must not let outsiders know. ”

Tang Ao has been reading books for the past few days, thinking quietly, and after all, he is a child, of course he wants to go out to see the excitement, so he immediately nodded and agreed.

After having dinner in Taiping Guan and accompanying Princess Taiping to tell some interesting stories about the market, Tang Ao returned to the study with Li Xian.

After Tang Ao came back, he took off the brocade jade belt and the goldfish talisman and said that he would not wear it again.

Li Xian was originally a good intention, but seeing that Tang Ao couldn't accept it, he had no choice but to ask the eunuch to bring two sets of palace clothes.

"Tang Ao, what I said just now, you must keep it in mind, and don't leave Taiping half a step tomorrow." Li Xian admonished again.

Tang Ao's black and white eyes looked at Li Xian without blinking.

Li Xian hesitated for a moment, and his childish face revealed a melancholy that did not match his age: "I'm afraid that Taiping will be in danger tomorrow, and I will definitely not be able to get out, so everything will be left to you." ”

Tang Ao took a deep breath, nodded and said, "Your Highness, don't worry, I won't leave the princess half a step, if I am here, Her Royal Highness the princess will be there." ”

Li Xian said with a smile: "How can it be so dangerous, when you see danger, you just need to remember to shout loudly, and I will let my henchmen and palace maids follow you." I hope that I am too worried, but be prepared, if Taiping is wronged, I, as a brother, will not regret it for the rest of my life. ”

Tang Ao pretended to have something in his heart, he couldn't sleep at night, tossing and turning, and then he simply sat up, took out his small baggage, and carried a few broken bronze mirrors into his arms, which were used as self-defense equipment, which was a little more steady.

After a night without saying anything, Tang Ao got up early and walked out of the study after freshening up, only to find that Li Xian and Princess Taiping were already waiting outside.

There were also twenty palace maids and twenty eunuchs accompanying them, most of whom were carrying gift boxes in their hands, presumably the birthday gifts prepared by Li Xian's brothers and sisters for Mrs. Rongguo.

Princess Taiping beckoned with a smile, a palace maid stepped forward with a food box, Princess Taiping opened the food box for Tang Ao to watch, only to see that there were a few peaches inside, and there was dew hanging on it, slightly red.

Tang Ao looked at these peaches, his little face was full of bitterness, and he performed the fairy monkey stealing peaches, using a small walnut.

The few peaches prepared by Princess Taiping are all the size of fists, even if he moves fast, he can't hold such a big peach, unless he is really a fairy who can blind his eyes, otherwise he will definitely be exposed!
