After seeing Yunzi, Yunzi was originally elated, but when he saw Lu Jinping's face, he immediately hugged his waist nervously, looked at him with a small face, and said, "What's wrong?" Does your sister disagree? ”

Lu Jinping shook his head and said, "It's not that my sister doesn't agree, it's that the prince doesn't agree." ”

"Prince? Why should he disagree? Yunzi's voice was already a little trembling when she said this, although she didn't particularly understand the Tang Dynasty's regulations on marriage, but if a future emperor didn't agree to their marriage, it would be a big trouble.

Lu Jinping hurriedly hugged her and kissed her forehead and said, "Don't worry, the prince is not against it, to be precise, he only agrees that I will marry you as a side princess, not a princess." The princess is up to him to decide for me. ”

As soon as he heard this, Yunzi breathed a sigh of relief, a smile resurfaced on his face, and said: "You are going to scare me to death, I thought she really didn't agree with me marrying you, the side princess is nothing, I don't care about reputation, it's good to be with you." Did the prince send a courtier with me to propose to my father? ”

Lu Jinping smiled bitterly and said: "The prince said that he would have to wait until he married Princess Zheng before he could send an envoy to propose marriage."

"What then?" The smile on Yunzi's face disappeared again, hugging Lu Jinping's waist and looking at him nervously.

Lu Jinping kissed her forehead again and said, "I am also reluctant to let you go, and I don't want to be separated from you for a long time, I think so, do you think it's okay?" I will write a marriage proposal, and send my sister and brother-in-law with you to discuss the marriage with your father, and when I marry the princess, I will marry you as the side princess. If your father agrees, you can go back to Datang to reunite with me first, and I will marry the princess. We will marry you immediately and marry you as the side princess, what do you think? ”

Yunzi nodded, grinned and said, "Okay, this idea is probably the best." However, the princess you marry is not allowed to bully me. Otherwise, I wouldn't be polite. ”

Seeing that she agreed, Lu Jinping put down the stone in his heart, smiled and said: "With your character, if you don't bully others, others are already Amitabha, who would dare to bully you?" ”

Yunzi stuck out his tongue, hugged him and kissed him for a while, and said, "Then it's decided." You hurry up and discuss with your sister and brother-in-law, we will set off when we meet, and I am still in a hurry to send the princess back, so that I can come back as soon as possible. ”

"Since that's the case, why don't you come with me to my house, meet my sister and brother-in-law, and say this to my face."

Yunzi nodded, but said nervously: "Then what if your sister and brother-in-law don't agree?" ”

Lu Jinping smiled and said, "Don't worry." I can't resist the prince, and my sister won't interfere with my marriage. I'm in charge of my business. ”

Yunzi's heart was full of joy. hugged Lu Jinping and jumped up, and kept kissing him: "Great, you are not like many men in your Tang Dynasty, you are afraid of jackals and tigers, you are the real man, just like our men in Tibet." Say whatever you say. ”

Lu Jinping felt a little ashamed, and thought to himself: "I can't do that yet, at least, I don't dare to fight against Li Longji, the future emperor." ”

Lu Jinping took Yunzi back to his Zhongwang Mansion, and he didn't discuss it with his sister in advance. Straight to the clouds. Because he believes that he still has the ability to convince his sister and brother-in-law.

Sure enough, after Lu Jinping introduced Yunzi, before Lu Jinping could speak, her sister Lu Fengniang took Yunzi's hand affectionately and kept talking, as if she had been an old friend for many years, and kept praising Yunzi for her beauty, and said that Lu Jinping had been praising her in front of him. In the future, Yunzi will be their daughter-in-law, and that will be a talented woman. Jin Dafu also kept laughing and echoing.

Yunzi heard that Lu Jinping's sister had regarded her as their daughter-in-law, and she couldn't help but feel a stone in her heart, blushing and not knowing what to say.

Lu Jinping didn't expect her sister to behave like this, and thought it would take some words. Then he understood that his sister is also a smart person, since he had told her before that he wanted to marry this girl as the princess, and now he retreated to the second place as the side princess, it is enough to show the weight of this woman in Lu Jinping's heart, if my sister does not go along with Lu Jinping at this moment, I am afraid that it will anger him.

At that moment, Lu Jinping said to his sister: "Since this is the case, can you work hard for my sister and brother-in-law to go to Tubo with Yunzi and their relatives, meet her parents, and discuss this matter." I wonder if my sister and brother-in-law are willing to work this trip? ”

Lu Fengniang and Jin Dafu nodded in agreement, Jin Dafu smiled and said: "Of course this is our business, it is necessary to go this way, and it is also our honor to be able to marry the princess of the side for our younger brother." ”

This is also true, Jin Dafu is a businessman and knows how to weigh the pros and cons best. Now Lu Jinping is the prince, and he has served as the Shaoqing of Dali Temple and the Shaoyin of Jingzhao Mansion, such an important position, and he also lived in the prince's previous mansion, which is enough to see his weight in the hearts of the emperor and the prince. If this big tree is coiled up, then what kind of business will not be smooth sailing and the wealth will be rolling?

To put it slowly, this trip is just to go to distant Tibet with the envoys, which is ten times more difficult than this, and it must be done hard, and it must be done well.

At that moment, Lu Jinping personally wrote a letter asking for relatives, stamped his loyalty to the prince's seal, sealed it and handed it to his sister.

Yunzi watched him write this letter in person, and couldn't help but be overjoyed.

Lu Fengniang and Jin Dafu knew that Jinping and Yunzi were sure that they still had to say something before parting, and they couldn't be disturbed, so they said goodbye and left, leaving only Yunzi and Lu Jinping.

After the door was closed, Yunzi threw himself into Lu Jinping's arms, and there was another burst of affection.

Lu Jinping said: "Everywhere you go, write a letter to say goodbye to safety and send it to me through the post station. After arriving in Tubo, finish the affairs of the princess, discuss the marriage with your father, whether he agrees or not, return to Datang as soon as possible, I will wait for you here. ”

Yunzi nodded vigorously and said with tears in his eyes: "Don't worry, I can't be reluctant, I can't leave you for a moment, as soon as the matter over there is done, I will come back soon, regardless of whether my father agrees or not." Still, I'm sure I'll agree. ”

Again, after a period of intimacy, this is goodbye.

The next day, the Royal Palace.

Yunzi welcomed the envoy to leave the capital, and Lu Jinping followed the officials of the imperial court to send them out of the city for ten miles, and then said goodbye and saw them go away.

After Yunzi left, Lu Jinping felt empty in his heart.

Indeed, I used to have this lovely Tibetan woman by my side all the time, but suddenly I lost this shadow and little tail, and I was always so uncomfortable.

This is a long way to Tibet, but I am afraid that I will not be able to come back in a year and a half, and my heart can't help but be full of melancholy, if in modern society, there are airplanes and cars, it will be much faster. Think about how pitiful the ancients were, and what they wanted to see through was used to describe this feeling.

――――――――

this day.

Lu Jinping was reviewing the case at his official residence, when a government official came to report that Prince Jingzhao Yin and Li Longji had been invited.

Lu Jinping hurriedly came to Li Longji's official residence.

Although Li Longji is the crown prince, he is rarely in the East Palace. His usual time was spent in Jingzhao Mansion to deal with the affairs of the capital. His day-to-day affairs are very complicated, and at the same time, many important tasks of state affairs are also entrusted to him. In this way, he has to take care of the core area of the capital, but also many important things under the Tang Dynasty, which is really busy.

But I don't know what he called Lu Jinping for this time.

Lu Jinping speculated in his heart to come to see Li Longji. Seeing that he was sitting behind a few high cases, the case slips were piled up with various folding scrolls, and he was writing with a pen. When he saw Lu Jinping coming in, he smiled and beckoned him to sit down on the soft couch beside him, but the pen in his hand did not stop.

After writing for a while, I finished reading this recital, and then put down the pen: "How is it?" Are there any difficult cases in the capital during this time? ”

Lu Jinping said: "The prince is personally in charge of the capital, the country is safe and secure, and so far, there have been no major cases. ”

"That's good, but there's a big case on Tongzhou Road, you must know. There is a Taoist chief in our capital Juxian Lou called Burning Lamp Heavenly Master, who lived in Tongzhou for a period of time, and just got an urgent report, saying that he died in a forest in Tongzhou, and there were no obvious external injuries, I don't know what the reason is, the local officials felt very strange, so they reported it. I thought about it, maybe it would be better for you to handle this case. ”

"These Taoists in Juxian Lou are very important to my former emperor, I don't care about these immortal techniques, but since Juxian Lou was left by the first emperor, the Taoists here are also all masters invited by the emperor from all over the country, and they still have to be treated with courtesy, and now, one of them died mysteriously in the grove, so you still need to find out and give your father an explanation, you go and do it."

Lu Jinping was a little strange when he heard that the Burning Lamp Heavenly Master had died mysteriously in the grove, and there was no obvious external injury, so he hurriedly arched his hand and said: "Obey the prince's orders, I will rush to deal with it, and I will definitely find out the real cause of his death and come back to report." If he really died of murder, the murderer must be arrested. ”

Li Longji nodded, smiled and said: "You don't have to issue a military order, some cases can't be solved, some can be broken, if they can be broken, they can't be broken, and there is no way to break the king of heaven, don't put too much pressure on yourself, I won't put pressure on you, I know you will do your best, that's it." ”

When Lu Jinping heard this, he couldn't help but feel grateful in his heart, if the future emperor had such a fair and objective attitude towards solving the case, then he would have a much better life in the future, and he would not be worried about being punished because he couldn't solve the case.

Indeed, it is up to people to succeed in heaven, even if they have modern detection methods, but if all cases can be solved, the gods can't do it. There are many cases that cannot be solved at all, and even if modern and modern technology is very high, it is not enough to solve all cases.

Lu Jinping returned to his residence and ordered the horses to be prepared.

He now has the Plum Blossom Internal Guard Guard, and with this Guard, and of course the personal maid Ye Qingqing, he set off for Tongzhou. (To be continued.) )
