Chapter 224: East Palace (I) 4/5 Asking for a Monthly Pass!!
A cool breeze occasionally fell with a few rain stars and fell on Li Xian's face.
Standing outside Shangyang Palace, he looked so lost. Twilight enveloped the Imperial City, making it very dimly lit.
Li Xian took a deep breath, and his confused brain slowly became clear.
At this time, a carriage drove out of Shangyang Palace and stopped beside Li Xian.
The curtain of the car was raised, revealing the charming and delicate face of Princess Taiping, she glanced at Li Xian, a trace of unbearability flashed in her eyes, but she immediately regained her calm.
"Prince, do you want me to give you a ride?"
Princess Taiping can be said to be one of the few people in this imperial city who can ride in a car.
Li Xian turned his head, glanced at Princess Taiping with a somewhat complicated gaze, and then said with a forced smile: "I want to walk alone, so I won't work for Taiping." ”
In his words, he was no longer as cordial as before, revealing a faint sense of alienation.
Li Xian is confused, cowardly, but it doesn't mean that he is a fool.
And Princess Taiping didn't care about his performance, and only smiled faintly: "Since this is the case, the prince should take care." However, there is a saying in Taiping, maybe it should not be said, but it is not unpleasant. The prince is not only the prince of the world, but also the prince of the East Palace. In this East Palace, if the prince's words are not counted, his mother will definitely feel very unhappy. ”
"You ......"
"That's all I say, take care of the prince."
After Princess Taiping finished speaking, the curtain fell.
The carriage drove out along a winding stone path and soon disappeared into the twilight.
At this time, Di Renjie was slowly walking out of Shangyang Palace. There was a carriage waiting for him outside the palace gate, he saw Li Xian, hesitated for a moment, stepped forward, and said in a deep voice: "The prince doesn't have to worry, Xingyang's affairs." The old minister believes that he has little to do with the crown prince. It's just that the marriage with King Liang, I'm afraid there will be twists and turns, and the old minister is really not suitable to continue to participate in it.
The sage had already issued an order and ordered Di Guangyuan to lead the right prison guard to Xingyang to pick up the Yang family's father and son.
The old minister thought that there would be no more twists and turns in this matter. But the prince had better deal with family matters as clearly as possible so as not to have any more trouble.
You must know that the sage is wise, and he is not the kind of person who is easily fooled. It's not that she doesn't understand, she just doesn't want to say it. Today's incident, the saint has saved face for the prince, and please don't blame the saint. ”
Li Xian, although he is the crown prince, his position is not stable.
Di Renjie doesn't want to have more twists and turns. I don't want to have a misunderstanding between Li Xian and Wu Zetian.
Li Xian nodded lightly and said, "Don't worry, I know my mother's hard work...... It's just that I'm too stupid, so ...... I will handle this matter well, and I will never cause trouble to the elders in the future. ”
At this point, he paused.
After a while, he stammered and asked, "Guo Lao, dare to ask why the father and son of the Yang family ended up in Changping?" ”
"This ......," Di Renjie smiled bitterly and shook his head. What happened back then, the old minister was not clear. But there must be some misunderstanding in this. Otherwise, Yang Shouwen would not have made the tragic words of 'Shigan burned to death the unjust marquis'.
The prince is benevolent, and the old minister doesn't believe that the prince will do anything excessive. But sometimes, it's not the crown prince who can call the shots. ”
"Then ......" Li Xian swallowed his saliva and asked softly, "After they come, where will they be arranged?" ”
Di Renjie smiled and shook his head, "This matter is decided by a saint. Shu Laochen didn't know very well. ”
"Take good care of his father and son, I owe him a lot."
"The old minister understands."
Di Guangyuan is Di Renjie's second son, and he was the Sima of Gwangju in the second year of Tianzhu, but he resigned from his official position after the first year of Long Live Tongtian. Follow Di Renjie left and right. After all, Di Renjie is old, and he also needs someone to take care of him. Di Guangyuan's talent is not outstanding, if compared with Di Guanghei, that is, Di Renjie's eldest son, there is a lot of difference.
But he is careful, and his skills are not weak.
Now, there is Di Guangsi outside the Di family to support the situation, and there is no need for Di Guangyuan to struggle.
As long as he takes care of Di Renjie, he is better than anything else. Moreover, since his resignation, although he has no minister, he has hung a loose post as a doctor from the fifth grade. For Di Guangyuan, this is enough.
This time, Wu Zetian asked Di Guangyuan to go, which showed that she already had a heart of vigilance.
Li Xian said a few more words, sent Di Renjie to the car, and after seeing the carriage leave, he sighed and returned to the East Palace.
When I returned to the East Palace, it was already completely dark.
What was originally just a few rain stars has now turned into a drizzle.
In the main hall of the East Palace, the lights are bright.
There were bursts of laughter from the main hall, but it made Li Xian's mood even more complicated.
"The prince has arrived!"
Outside the main hall, the inner chamberlain Gao Lishi shouted loudly, and the laughter in the hall stopped abruptly.
Webster was laughing with a beautiful woman, and looking at her appearance, she was quite sycophant. And next to it, there were two young girls and two teenagers. The girl is Li Xianhui and Li Bao'er, and the boy is the emperor's grandson Li Chongrun and Li Xian's third son Li Chongjun.
Li Xian dragged his tired body and walked in from the outside, his clothes wet.
He came all the way from Shangyang Palace, although there was an entourage who wanted to make an umbrella for him to cover the rain, but he drove him away.
"Shangguan Sheren is also here."
"Wan'er, see the prince."
That beautiful woman is Shangguan Wan'er.
When she saw Li Xian walk in, she hurriedly stood up and owed herself a blessing.
Li Xian waved his hand, and then walked to the big chair and sat down.
"Why is the prince so embarrassed? Are the slaves and maidservants dead? Why don't you know to shelter the prince from the rain?
Gao Lishi, why don't you go and let people cook some ginger soup to ward off the cold for the prince? Come, give the prince clean clothes. ”
But Li Xian didn't respond, only closed his eyes, as if the old monk was in a trance.
Seeing this, Shangguan Wan'er immediately understood what Li Xian meant, he was sending off guests.
"The prince is so tired, Wan'er won't disturb the prince's rest, and will leave first."
"Shangguan Sheren walks slowly."
Wei also sensed that Li Xian's state was not normal, and hurriedly agreed.
Li Xian opened his eyes and smiled slightly at Shangguan Wan'er, "Shangguan Sheren walk slowly, it's raining outside, please be careful on the road." ”
"There is Prince Lao who is concerned."
Shangguan Wan'er smiled, then got up and left.
As soon as she left, Li Chongrun's children also wanted to leave, but they heard Li Xian say: "Dalang stays, and everyone else retreats." ”
Li Bao'er is wearing women's clothes today.
She was dressed in a white skirt with an apricot-colored half-arm on the outside, and a gold ring of hair on her head, which looked quite exotic. Hearing Li Xian's words, she immediately turned her head to look at Li Chongrun, and then spit out her little fragrant tongue.
That means to say: Big brother, you're finished, Daddy must be fine.
When Li Xianhui saw it on the side, she couldn't help but hide her lips and smiled.
It's also quite interesting to say, Li Xian is not very good, but these children, the men are handsome and the women are beautiful, and it seems that they have only inherited Webster's appearance. As for Li Chongjun, he tilted his head towards Li Chongrun, signaling that you are doing it yourself.
Li Chongrun felt a little hairy in his heart, but he didn't dare to speak out.
"Aifei, you also stay."
At this time, an attendant brought a dry suit and walked up to change the semi-wet coat for Li Xian.
"Tell my will, no one shall approach within a hundred steps of the Yin'an Palace."
"Whoa!"
There was a sound of footsteps outside the main hall, and the guards of the East Palace quickly surrounded the Yin'an Palace, and they were heavily guarded for a while.
"Father, what's going on?"
Li Bao'er had already left the Yin'an Palace, but when she saw this situation, she suddenly became curious and stopped.
"Wrap up, let's go."
"Third sister, what's going on? Why did my father block the Yin'an Palace? ”
Li Xianhui frowned slightly, and was a little helpless about her very curious sister.
It is also interesting to say that Li Xian has nine daughters, of which Webster accounts for four. Li Xianhui is one year older than Li Bao'er, and the two have completely different personalities. Li Xianhui is demure and quiet, likes to read, likes to play the piano, and likes to play chess...... There are quite a few young women in literature and art in later generations. He is so sentimental, and sometimes he even sheds tears over the withering of a flower.
But Li Bao'er is a lively and curious girl.
She likes to dance with guns and sticks, so she can walk around in boys' clothes, and she likes to fight unevenly. Originally, Li Xianhui, who was supposed to be her sister, took care of Li Bao'er. But in fact, in more time, it was Li Bao'er who took care of Li Xianhui. (To be continued......)
