When I returned to Duan Mansion, the days seemed to have returned to two years ago, the only difference was that Duan Zhixuan was now with me in addition to the previous dynasty.

"Brother, it's your turn."

The backyard has been transformed into a martial arts training ground, and under a super large cloth umbrella, I proudly looked at the arrow target in the distance with an arrow I had just shot, right in the red heart.

Duan Zhixuan looked at me, smiled and stepped forward to pull out the bow in his hand, the arrow was only two seconds away from the string, only to see that the originally white-headed arrow on the arrow target in the distance was replaced with a red one, and the white arrow fell on the bluestone slab with a "click" sound.

I raised my eyebrows, although I was very unconvinced, I have to say that Duan Zhixuan's archery skills are good.

"Good archery!"

A familiar voice rang out, and I turned to look at the group of people walking towards us. The eldest grandson Wuji, Li Xiaogong, and now the idle king Li Shimin.

I bowed to them slightly.

"Brother, I'll help you make some snacks."

"Go ahead! Be careful, don't hurt yourself. ”

I smiled and nodded, then bowed to them again and stepped back. Passing by Li Shimin's side, I looked up at him, but I didn't expect to meet his gaze. For a second, I smiled as a gesture of friendship, and he was slightly stunned, nodded, and turned his head.

Life is like this, everyone is at peace with each other tacitly.

I went to the kitchen, looked at it, what are you going to do today? It's summer now, and the lotus flowers are in full bloom, so I'll make a bowl of lotus seed ice!

I asked Xiaofu and Xiaomei to pick a lot of lotus flowers and lotus seeds, pull the lotus seeds from the core, then put them in water and cook them until they are fully cooked, pour them out and drain them, make a bowl with the lotus flowers they have picked, put the cold lotus seeds in it, spread a layer of smoothie, and finally put the watermelon and rabbit-shaped grapes cut into stars on the smoothie, and pour two spoonfuls of honey on the smoothie.

"I didn't expect you to have this skill?" The eldest grandson Wuji looked at the rabbit-like grapes in the spoon, and even Li Shimin, who had always been indifferent, looked at how it was made.

I smiled and said, "Actually, it's very simple, just cut off a small piece of the bottom of the grape, cut it with a knife to shape a rabbit ear, and on top of the rest of the part, use a knife to cut it diagonally at a third of the point, don't cut it off, just insert the ear in." The eyes I made of sesame seeds, and the grape seeds have been removed. ”

Duan Zhixuan was used to seeing me, he just looked at me with a smile and ate his own.

I saw that they were quite satisfied with the food, so I turned around and whispered to Xiaomei behind me: "I also made one for you and Xiaofu, and put it in the kitchen, go quickly!" When the ice melts, it won't taste good. ”

Xiaomei nodded, saluted and pulled Xiaofu to retreat.

Xiaomei didn't go far and whispered to Xiaofu, Xiaofu was stunned at first, and then the wind ran away, leaving Xiaomei to look at me, with a helpless expression, I smiled and shook my head.

I turned around and just looked at Li Shimin, who was looking directly in front of me, and was slightly stunned, and nodded with a smile.

When they had all eaten, they asked someone to pack up their things. Li Xiaogong looked at me and said hesitantly: "In a few days, the Turks will send envoys to visit my Datang..."

I looked at him, and I wanted to stop talking, I heard Li Yuanji say this, but I don't know when.

The eldest grandson Wuji also looked at me, and then followed Li Xiaogong's words: "Let's talk about it!" This Turkic visit was for nothing else, but for peace. At the beginning, in order to stabilize the world as soon as possible, my Datang had to surrender to the Turks, and with the help of the Turkic forces, I was able to defeat the current Datang. ”

Li Shimin looked at me and said without any emotion: "Now the strength of the Tang Dynasty is not enough to compete with the Turks, and the Turks are probably not as simple as making peace this time." ”

I looked at their serious expressions and probably guessed something. It has also been written in history that Li Yuan surrendered to the Turks at the beginning, and only with the help of the Turkic forces did he overthrow the Sui Dynasty. Of course, after the increasing strength of the Tang Dynasty, the Turks were not the opponents of the Tang Dynasty at all, which can also be seen that Li Yuan is a person who can bend and stretch to do great things.

Calculating the time, it's almost fast, I looked at Li Shimin, the military power was back in my hands again, and the next thing had to be done in peace.

As if sensing that I was looking at him, he raised his eyes to me, and for that moment, I seemed to see endless ambition and desire in his dark eyes. Frowning slightly, he was about to see more clearly, only to find that he had turned his head.

…

Chang'an is occupied by a group of people in strange costumes today, and they lined up in a neat line and entered the city to the palace. The luxurious carriage was surrounded only by a veil, and the wind that was carried by the walk flew around the veil, and in it sat a young woman, and everyone was stunned.

"She is the princess sent by the Turkic Khan?" I looked at the veterans passing downstairs and asked the eldest grandson Wuji to arrive.

The eldest grandson Wuji looked at the carriage and said with a smile: "Well, the fifth princess who is the most beloved by the Turkic Khan is also the only princess who is not yet married. ”

I frowned slightly and said, "This Great Khan is willing to marry his most beloved daughter far away?" ”

Li Xiaogong also frowned slightly: "I'm afraid this time things are not so simple." ”

Just when the three of us were frowning and thinking, Duan Zhixuan and Li Shimin also came back, and brought a person at the same time, this person had a relationship two years ago, I knew it by looking at the jade gourd hanging from his waist, but I don't know who this person is? I haven't taken my eyes off him since he entered the house, and it shouldn't be easy to get together with Li Shimin and them.

I said hello slightly, Duan Zhixuan walked to my side, I looked up at him and smiled at him, and my eyes motioned for him to introduce me.

He shook helplessly and said, "Brother Xuanling, let me introduce you, this is the sister-in-law, be quiet." ”

I was stunned in place, only to see the man step forward and arch his hand: "Sister Jinghao is polite, in the next surname Fang, the word Qiao, the name Xuanling." ”

Fang Xuanling, he is actually letting Xuanling go?! I looked at the man in front of me who looked no more than thirty years old, the famous Tang Dynasty minister and politician in history, but why is his identity different from history, in history he is the son of Fang Yanqian, the commander of Jingyang in the Sui Dynasty. Good poetry and literature, reading the scriptures and history. At the age of eighteen, he was born as a jinshi, and was awarded the rank of lieutenant of the feather cavalry and the lieutenant of Xicheng County. After Jinyang raised troops, after taking refuge in Li Shimin, the king of Qin, he actively made suggestions, managed secretaries, selected talents, and became one of the right-hand men of the Qin Palace.

Duan Zhixuan saw that I didn't speak for a long time, so he apologized and said, "It's really funny." Saying that, he smiled and shook his head and looked at me, "Yue'er..."

I came back to my senses and looked at Duan Zhixuan, "Ha, what's wrong, brother?" ”

He shook his head helplessly, raised his hand and touched my head, suddenly he was slightly stunned, quickly withdrew his hand and said, "Brother Fang is greeting you." ”

"Oooh, sorry, I just got distracted." Saying that, I turned to look at Fang Xuanling, and said with a somewhat complicated mood: "Brother Fang is polite, the little girl Ziyue, the name is Jing, Brother Fang, you can call me Yue'er like several brothers." ”

After a period of small talk, everyone was ready to disperse, and Li Shimin had already left. Because he had to accompany the Turkic Great Khan and the princess who came from afar, a banquet was held in the palace tonight, and Duan Zhixuan and they had to go together.

Bidding farewell to the eldest grandson Wuji and them, Duan Zhixuan and I returned to Duan's mansion, but we never thought of seeing the people we didn't want to see...
