Volume 1 Zhenguan Talent. Chapter 40: The Hunt
"Your Highness......"
Li Zhi didn't speak, was silent for a while, and said to the eunuch next to him.
"Go to the Temple of Manna."
Situ Mingyue entered the hall, and Tang Taizong said with a smile.
"Xiao Yue'er is here."
Xiao Yue'er? Situ Mingyue looked confused, this is calling me,
Taizong looked at her dumbfounded, and smiled again.
"I secretly decided yesterday that I would call you this little guy Xiao Yue'er in the future, how about it?"
Situ Mingyue reacted and said with a smile.
"Of course you can, as long as Your Majesty likes it."
Taizong nodded her head, took out the written words and handed them to Situ Mingyue,
"Here are a few notes I copied for you yesterday, come on, set up a small case next to me,"
After speaking, several eunuchs came in with a table and put it on the side of Taizong's case, after cleaning up, Taizong asked Situ Mingyue to sit aside and practice calligraphy, Situ Mingyue suddenly had a feeling that she was forced to go to school again, alas, she sighed in her heart, sat down at the table seriously, and practiced calligraphy, Taizong looked at her quiet appearance, and he didn't know why he was very relieved, he felt that Situ Mingyue had a magic power that made him feel at ease. Taizong lowered his head with a smile and continued to look at the recital on the table, after reading the recital this morning, there was also a horse taming activity in the afternoon, and glanced at Situ Mingyue, who was writing carefully, Taizong asked.
"Do you like horseback riding?"
Situ Mingyue was arguing with the words, did not speak, only nodded, Taizong saw that she was so serious, smiled and did not ask, after a while, Wang De stood aside and watched, and shook his head helplessly, at this time, a small eunuch stood at the door of the hall and reported,
"Your Majesty, King Jin is here."
Taizong was very happy,
"Xuan."
Situ Mingyue was in a trance, didn't he go in the opposite direction just now, why did he go around again, Li Zhi, the king of Jin, after the death of Empress Wende, Taizong felt sorry for her young and lost her mother, and he had always loved him, took him to live in the palace, and named him the king of Jin, Situ Mingyue always felt that the Li Zhi he knew now was very different from the Li Zhi in the history books, for example, this Li Zhi was colder and more old-fashioned, this was in the bamboo forest, the first impression he left on Situ Mingyue was more shrewd, this is the second impression in the palace of Princess ChangguangThis is the third impression after seeing Li Zhi in the palace, anyway, the Li Zhi she knows now has many facets, which always brings different feelings to Situ Mingyue, Li Zhi walked into the hall, looked at the harmonious scene on the stage, was stunned for a moment, and after meeting Taizong, Situ Mingyue stood up and saluted him, Li Zhi returned the salute, Taizong looked at Li Zhi and said.
"Wu'er finally has to come and see me today."
Li Zhi arched his hand and said.
"My father laughed, my son is now a prince, and he stays by his father's side, and he doesn't know how much happier he is than other brothers, and because of this, his son should study hard and help his father reduce his burden."
Taizong stroked his beard and smiled.
"Okay, come on, why is it so slow, and you don't show King Jin a seat."
After King Jin sat down, Situ Mingyue secretly glanced at him and found that he didn't look at himself, and his heart was a little calm, Taizong said.
"You have always been well-behaved and sensible, unlike your brothers, who always let me worry about it."
King Jin Road.
"The brothers are brave and strategic, and there are many places that need to be learned, and the sons have always felt abandoned recently, and they have learned a lot, but they only have a little fur from their brothers."
Taizong comforted.
"You are still young now, the days are very long, you can learn slowly, my father doesn't want you to be better than your brothers, just remember, no matter what, only martial arts are good, and you can protect the Tang Dynasty."
Li Zhi arched his hand,
"Remember, child."
"I'm going to finish my recital, let's have dinner with my father in a while, and go to the hunting ground with me after eating.
Li Zhi got up, and Situ Mingyue also stood up and said.
"Yes."
Taizong looked at Situ Mingyue who stood up and said
"Now I'm coming to my senses."
Situ Mingyue was puzzled, and Taizong smiled.
"Silly girl, I really asked you just now if you can ride a horse, but you agreed, and when you get to the hunting ground in a while, don't embarrass me."
Situ Mingyue reacted, a little embarrassed, and said.
"The concubine tries not to embarrass His Majesty."
Taizong laughed, and Li Zhi looked at Situ Mingyue with some surprise,
Taizong scratched her nose and said.
"That's why you dare to cross in front of me."
Situ Mingyue hurriedly bowed her head and saluted,
"The concubine doesn't dare."
Taizong looked at her,
"Duplicity."
After eating, Situ Mingyue and Li Zhi followed Taizong to the paddock, and when they arrived at the paddock, many ministers were there, Situ Mingyue knew that she was not the only concubine who came today, Wu Ruyu, Xiao Cairen, Zheng Baolin, they were also there, Wei Guifei and other concubines of high rank were also present, seeing Taizong coming, everyone stood up to greet each other, and Taizong sat next to Wei Guifei,
"Ai Concubine is waiting."
Wei Guifei smiled gently.
"The duty of a concubine."
The other concubines also saluted Taizong, and when they saw Situ Mingyue who was following Taizong, they were all stunned for a moment, Xiao Cairen, who was standing on the other side, snorted coldly, Situ Mingyue sighed, a woman's jealousy is always so terrible. Taizong waved his hand to the concubines and asked everyone to sit down, Situ Mingyue glanced at Wu Ruyu who was sitting in the talented seat, and found that she didn't look at herself, thinking that Wu Ruyu would not be angry with her, so he said to Taizong, and was ready to go over to find Wu Ruyu, but as soon as he wanted to turn around, he was tripped over the skirt, but fortunately, a pair of warm hands immediately supported her, Situ Mingyue looked up and wanted to say thank you, but as soon as she looked up, she faced a pair of obsidian-like eyes, Li Zhi immediately let go of her hand after helping her up, and turned her head, Situ Mingyue's face was a little red, and Taizong laughed at her,
"I'm so scared that I can't walk steadily in the paddock."
Situ Mingyue wanted to explain, but felt that it was unnecessary, and said.
"After a while, the concubine will dance a horse for Your Majesty here, and Your Majesty will know that the concubine is walking steadily."
Taizong said with a smile.
"I'll wait and see, aren't you going to find a martial artist, let's go."
Situ Mingyue hurriedly lifted her skirt, glanced at Li Zhi, and whispered thank you as she walked past him. Li Zhi was stunned for a moment, still with a serious face, sat beside Taizong, and looked at the paddock.
Walking to Wu Ruyu's side, Situ Mingyue called her,
"Ruyu?"
Wu Ruyu turned her head, looked at Situ Mingyue and smiled.
"Yue'er,"
Situ Mingyue felt that she was a little polite, and at this time, Xiao Cairen walked in front of them,
"Yo, isn't this the Situ Cairen who came in and got the grace alone, don't you accompany Your Majesty, are you here to see our jokes?"
Situ Mingyue ignored her, only looked at Wu Ruyu, Wu Ruyu looked at Situ Mingyue only looking at herself, felt a little sad, turned her head and said to Xiao Cairen.
