Taiyuan City, the palace of the Great Han Dynasty.

Since Liu Jun, the fifth prince, lost the once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to capture the eldest princess of Yong'an of the Great Zhou Dynasty, he was punished by the Han Emperor for being claustrophobic in the mansion and unable to go out.

On this day, Liu Jun was taking a nap, and a concubine Xu was waiting on the side.

The steward of the palace had something to do and had to wait at the door.

Xu: "The prince is awake?" ”

Liu Jun let out a "hmm" in his nose and said, "I drank a few more cups at noon, but I don't want to be so drowsy." ”

Xu: "The prince usually takes care of all opportunities, but now it is rare to be idle, and it is a good time to recuperate." It's just that I heard from the steward that a fortune teller came from outside the palace gate at noon, and he refused to leave. The people below first hurried it, and then they used some silver to let him go quickly. But there are words in his mouth, but he said that the prince has gone to memorize the words, and he has a way to resolve it, and he asks the prince to see it. ”

Liu Jun said: "Are all the people raised by this king eating dry rice?" Do you still have to report this little thing to beg for a beating? Just take a few more people out of the fork. ”

Xu said: "Why don't the people at the bottom know? It's just that it is said that the man is a bit of a scoundrel, and his body is extremely flexible, and more than a dozen people can't get close, but they are played around. In the downtown area of the capital, the palace was in the courtyard, and the steward was afraid that Zhang Yang would not look good when he went out, so he invited him to the gatehouse. ”

Liu Jun said: "One more move! Who else dares to make trouble outside this palace? Thinking about the loss of power, can this king be reckless? Tell them to tie up the people and hand them over to the government office. ”

While speaking, Xu Shi was already waiting for Liu Jun to finish changing his clothes, and said, "Yes, Lord Wang." ”

Liu Jun suddenly grabbed Xu's hand that was smoothing the fine lines of his robe for him, and exclaimed, "What's in charge?" ”

Xu Shi was taken aback and said, "The prince caught the concubine so painfully!" The steward, the steward is still outside waiting for the king's instructions. ”

Liu Jun gave Xu's hand and said as he walked: "It's almost a big deal!" ”

Three steps and two steps, and they reached the outhouse.

Before the steward's "Lord Wang" could be issued, Liu Jun grabbed his neck.

"What did the man say?"

"That person, that person said that he worshiped the king of the virtuous king, and his heart was very broken. Also, I envy talents and admire them repeatedly. I don't know what it means to be small. ”

Liu Jun broke out in a cold sweat and said, "Big ...... Not good! Quickly, quickly take this person to the study, and remember to only say that when the king woke up and heard about it, he asked him to go to divination. ”

The steward took the command and went down.

Shaoqing, in the study of the five princes.

Liu Jun stepped back left and right, closed the doors and windows, and said to the comer: "Lord Yin, don't come to harm!" ”

It turned out that the fortune teller was none other than Yin Tianshu, a retainer of the Great Zhou Emperor. Although he has no real power, only a few false titles, rarely shows up on weekdays, and is quite mysterious, but everyone inside and outside the government and the opposition knows that he is one of the most trusted people by Chai Cong, and countless people want to make friends but can't get it.

Yin Tianshu said: "I've seen the prince." In a hurry, I had to disguise myself and risk coming to the door to disturb the prince's cultivation. ”

Liu Jun said: "Lord Yin, you know the slave best. The slave is loyal to the master, there is no two words, how can you talk about the word bother? You're venturing into the city, but what's the matter? The eldest princess of Yong'an has escaped safely, presumably the emperor should have received the flying pigeon message early. ”

Yin Tianshu said: "The emperor said, you have done a good job in the matter of the eldest princess of Yong'an. ”

Liu Jun was overjoyed and said: "The slave went to the soup for the Great Zhou and died forever!" ”

Yin Tianshu: "The emperor is busy with state affairs, and he knew that the eldest princess had escaped danger and set off to return to Beijing, but halfway through, he left me behind and asked me to sneak into Taiyuan Mansion in disguise and secretly meet with the prince." ”

Liu Jun said: "But where did the slave not do as good as the holy will? ”

Yin Tianshu said: "The prince doesn't have to be nervous, the emperor still praises the prince." It's just that some words are inconvenient to pass on, so they sent me on this trip. ”

Liu Jun said: "Please show Lord Yin." ”

Yin Tianshu said: "The emperor wants to know if Wen Cang, the owner of Linglong Villa mentioned in the prince's letter, can really be used by the Great Zhou?" ”

Liu Jun said: "Linglong Mountain has suffered an accident, and it was sent by the imperial court to clean up the matter of the eldest princess. ”

Yin Tianshu said: "The emperor never thought that there was only an empty shelf left in the famous Linglong Villa on the rivers and lakes? ”

Liu Jun said: "But there is a master in Linglong Mountain, and she has also contributed a lot to the rescue of the eldest princess, she has some relationship with the old owner of Wen, and she has given Wen Cang more than ten years of enlightenment. If you want to come, Wen Cang's cultivation will definitely not be under Yu Concubine. ”

Yin Tianshu said: "In your opinion, what about Wen Cang's character?" ”

Liu Jun said: "That Wen Cang is a rare loyal and righteous person, a man who is Gengjie, and wise as foolish. But if it is only about wisdom, it is far inferior to Yu Concubine. ”

Yin Tianshu nodded, and then lowered his voice and said, "There is one more thing, it's just my gossip with the prince." I don't know how much love the eldest princess and the horse master have along the way? ”

Liu Jun understood, smiled slightly, and said: "Don't hide it from Lord Yin, the slave has no other skills, but he is the most accustomed to Fengyue." According to what the slaves saw, the eldest princess and the concubine treated each other politely, like brothers and sisters more than like husband and wife. Although the slave has been in the Han land for a long time, he has also heard of the name of the son of the Yu family, is it true that the folk rumors are true? ”

Yin Tianshu pretended to be annoyed a little, and said: "It's good to know, don't announce it." ”

Liu Jun gave a light salute, smiled slightly, and said, "The slave lost his words." ”

It's night, in the Imperial Garden of Xingzhou City.

Yu Yao gently pushed open the door and strode into the room.

When Youwei saw him enter the door, she said to the palace maids who served the left and right, "You all go down." ”

The palace maids all retreated after saluting Yu Yao.

Yu Yao said: "Who have you seen today?" Is it still fun? ”

Youwei sneered slightly: "How can you be as free as you?" Studying the essence of martial arts left by Liu's predecessors with Wen Cang day by day, I think I will be able to go to the next level in a few days. ”

Yu Yao smiled: "What? Is there anyone in this small Xingzhou city who dares to provoke the eldest princess? I'm afraid I'm getting impatient! ”

Youwei sighed: "No one dares to provoke it, but General Li, the assassin of Xingzhou, and even the governor of the Daimyo Mansion have sent their families to live near the Imperial Garden temporarily, and they keep saying that they want to accompany the eldest princess and serve the eldest princess." On the contrary, I had to accompany them to arrange flowers and drink tea every day, which was rare and comfortable. ”

Yu Yao said: "That's natural, Yong'an has been the only princess in the country since the first emperor established the Great Zhou, and her identity is the most noble." Now these people see that the current emperor did not hesitate to travel thousands of miles from Bianjing to Xingzhou for the sake of Yong'an, and he almost drove his own expedition to fight with the Han Dynasty, so they know that Yong'an's status in the emperor's heart, how could he let go of such a rare opportunity to curry favor? ”

Yu Yao walked to the tea table and sat down, poured himself a cup of tea, drank it all, and continued: "This Xingzhou assassin Dong Xuan is also from a family, and the old mother in the family is recuperating in Bianliang's secluded residence, but he is released to Xingzhou, and the mother and son have been separated for many years, so he wants to be transferred back to Jinggi. Yin Fu's surname is Zhongli, the governor of the Daimyo Mansion, who is an old minister of the Han Dynasty, and surrendered when the emperor established the Great Zhou. These people are asking for you, and you have to be careful about socializing on weekdays. ”

Youwei said: "It's really hard to deal with these people. Mrs. Dong has two daughters, the older one is called Yuqiao, who is really a big beauty, and the younger one is called Yuqin, who is just a young girl. Mrs. Zhongli has only one daughter, and her name is Qian'er, but she is slim and elegant, pure and lovely. General Li and his wife only have three sons and no daughters, so Mrs. Li always comes alone. The strange thing is that Zhongli Qian'er is not close to Yu Qiao, who is close to the age, but is friendly with Yu Qin. ”

Yu Yao said: "I will tell you about this matter, I think you will feel a little strange." That Dong Yuqiao is not biological. Mr. Dong is a person of filial piety, and in order to return to Beijing to provide for his mother's retirement, he will do everything he can. The couple didn't know where to find a beautiful girl, so they kept it by their side, saying that the daughter was just to hide people's eyes, but in fact, they were doing the same thing as serving people and making some joints. ”

Youwei was shocked: "There is such a thing? ”

Yu Yao nodded and continued: "Thinking that Zhongli Qian'er prides himself on being a famous lady, he naturally disdains to be close to Dong Yuqiao. ”

Youwei said: "But now Dong Tingshi asked Yu Qiao to come, but why?" Yongan is a princess, not a prince, this beauty trick doesn't work. ”

Yu Yao smiled: "Who doesn't like beauties, besides you and me, isn't there Wen Cang?" ”

Youwei said: "You mean, they are deliberately ......"

Yu Yao said: "It's definitely possible. In the battle of Linglong Mountain, everyone can see that the two of us have regarded Wen Cang as a close friend, and if he is willing to serve Da Zhou in the future, his future is limitless. ”

Youwei's heart moved, and her face suddenly changed color, which had been seen by Yu Yao.

Yu Yao smiled: "But even if they have this intention, it won't be so easy to think about, who is Wen Cang?" Famous young talents on the rivers and lakes. Haven't we never been to Linglong Villa, and there are still few beautiful and amorous maids? grew up in such a pile of beauties, how could he fall in love with a vulgar fan like Dong Yuqiao. ”

Youwei was a little relieved, and whispered, "You have some truth in what you said. It's just that the maid in Linglong Villa is controlled, knows the rules best, and will not easily transgress, if someone has a fox crooked mind, I am afraid that I will be killed; Second, you and I have never seen such a stunning woman in Linglong Villa in those days. Yu Yao raised his eyes to look at her and said, "Wen Cang has only been concentrating on studying the mental mantra left by Senior Liu in the past few days, and he only sleeps for three or four hours at night and gets up early to practice, I think he has nothing else to think about except practicing martial arts." ”

Youwei said: "He treats people sincerely on weekdays, and we can be regarded as having received his favor, I hope he will get out of the pain of bereavement as soon as possible and carry forward the family martial arts." ”

Yu Yao said: "These days, I have studied with him and found that he is actually very talented, but because he has not been loved by his parents since he was a child, he can't get through the hurdles in his heart, so he can't have an epiphany for a long time." Although this accident is certainly a catastrophe for him, if he can learn from the pain, awakening and rebirth may not be a good thing. ”

Yu Yao was talking but found that Youwei was stunned by herself, so she coughed lightly twice, and Youwei came back to her senses when she heard the cough.

Yu Yao put away his smile, changed his sympathetic face, and said in a low voice: "You are now the eldest princess of Yong'an, even if you don't care about being assigned to me by the emperor as your wife, don't forget the emperor's affection for Yong'an for many years." If one day, we find exquisite dice, you will also return to your hometown. Remember, remember. ”

Youwei didn't say anything more, and then stopped.

It's a pity that the emotions are moving, and the secret hatred is the most involuntary.
