The palace has always liked to hold banquets with various names, and now Li Xian is still in the future, the frequency is getting higher and higher, and most of them are run by the young people of the royal family, and the older generation has begun to fade out.

But this time the invitation post came to Wu Yanji's hands, but he was a little hesitant, because the person who invited him was not someone else, but Zhang Changzong, who had a holiday with him. After thinking about it, Wu Yanji went to see Li Chongrun, and it happened that Li Chongrun also received a post with the same content, and he was also in the midst of indecision.

"Can he Zhang Changzong still eat people? Brother Wu, why should you and my brother be afraid of him? In terms of status, we are much more noble than him, what are they? In the end, it is not in the stream. Li Chongrun said that there were still some things he wanted to say together, and he couldn't see Zhang Wulang and Zhang Liulang for a long time.

Wu Yanji reminded in a low voice: "Brother Li is cautious, be careful that the wall has ears. ”

"You're too alert!" Li Chongrun sneered, "Am I, a person in the palace, still looking for them?" ”

"His Royal Highness, having said that, these two people are in Luoyang with one hand, and the empress can say that they are obedient." Wu Yanji was not worried, and said: "Your time to return to the palace is still short, many things are not reasonable, you should be on guard or on guard, I regret that I ended this enemy so quickly at that time." ”

Li Chongrun sighed, nodded anyway, but didn't continue to speak, and invited Wu Yanji to drink, as if the troublesome things were just mediocre people.

Zhang Changzong's banquet place in the Qiushui Pavilion, the best position on the lakeside, although the lake can not be compared with the Taiye Pond in the Chang'an Daming Palace in terms of scale, but full of charm, to be much more exquisite, want to dig this lake at the beginning, the empress specially allowed everything to do according to his preferences, for this Zhang Changzong was proud for a long time, and the people in the palace gradually regarded this place as the exclusive place of the Zhang brothers.

The Zhang brothers held a banquet on their own territory, which was both a kind of swagger and a kind of admonition, and most of the invitations were from the Wu and Li families, which invisibly sounded the alarm bell for everyone - don't forget that there is still a place for their brothers in the palace, don't think that the most prominent person in the Great Zhou is either Wu or Li, and the surname Zhang should not be underestimated.

Everyone sat down one after another, staggered, singing and dancing, so comfortable.

After a few rounds of drinking, someone was slightly drunk and shouted at Zhang Changzong with a smile: "Ye Guogong, is there anything more interesting and novel?" Let everyone have fun with your light map. Li Chongrun was drinking alone, and was attracted by this movement, only to feel that this person was full of ruffianism and did not seem to be a good person.

Zhang Changzong pursed his lips with a light smile, and didn't seem to care about this abruptness, "Okay!" I have a proposal, but I don't know if it will help? If it doesn't work, it will sweep away the interest of everyone here! ”

Someone at the wine table immediately catered to him: "Guogong, please speak, we are very curious, don't we just want to have fun today?" ”

"Actually, it's not a difficult thing." Zhang Changzong still smiled lightly, his eyes circled, and finally locked on Wu Yanji, and the smile spread: "I wonder if King Ji Wei can offer a Hu Xuan Dance?" ”

When Wu Yanji heard this, his face turned red, and he replied: "I'm sorry, Zhang Guogong, I really can't do this." ”

Zhang Changzong shook his head with a smile, and hooked the corners of his mouth at everyone: "I'll just say, King Ji Wei is very outside, and he hides it deeply, and refuses to let everyone see it." ”

"No, no, no!" Wu Yanji hurriedly waved his hand and explained to the surroundings: "Everyone, everyone, my limbs are uncoordinated when I was a child, and my five notes are not complete, I can't sing or dance......

"Following the King of Wei, he is too humble! They are all siblings, your younger brother Wu Yanxiu is versatile, but he can't do anything as an eldest brother, this can't be said, I don't believe it, do you all believe it? Zhang Changzong laughed and asked.

Naturally, many people followed suit and questioned again and again.

The scene was very embarrassing for a while, Wu Yanji blushed, and knew that this trip was not so simple, and Zhang Changzong must be repaid.

Li Chongrun was thinking of saying a few fair words as a friend, but Zhang Changzong didn't give him this opportunity, and took the opportunity to say: "Wu Yanxiu, the king of Huaiyang, was ordered to go to the Turks to deal with peace matters, and I heard that he was detained because he angered the Mosi Khan, and his return date is uncertain. If the king of Wei does not even know the basic Turkic customs, when the king of Huaiyang returns to Beijing one day, I am afraid that your brothers will have a gap. I heard that this Hu Xuan Dance Wu Yanxiu danced a lot in the Turks, and it was a big occasion! Speaking of which, it is also to give me a big circumference face, if King Wei is negligent in this art, it will be a pity! You must know that next time, I plan to sponsor the king of Wei to go to the Turks......"

Before Wu Yanji came, he had repeatedly told himself to be restrained and patient no matter what situation he encountered, but at this moment, he was so angry that he couldn't suppress it, Li Chongrun saw this, pulled him hard, got up and poured a glass of wine, and smiled reluctantly: "Ye Guogong is joking, following King Wei and my sister Princess Yongtai have a marriage contract, this is a marriage given by the empress herself, didn't Guogong forget?" Besides, this Hu Xuan dance turns dizzy, we look dizzy, it's better to be like this, today I brought a musician, especially good at blowing Xun, of course, if you dislike Xun is too clumsy, she also learned some Tianzhu dance, the same is exotic, Tianzhu dance is more interesting, I don't know if you are interested? ”

After all, Li Chongrun is the emperor's grandson, and anyone has to give some face to his words, Zhang Changzong exchanged glances with the person beside him, and said slowly: "His Royal Highness the emperor's grandson has a heart!" ”

Li Chongrun immediately instructed Le Qi to prepare, in this vacancy, Wu Sansi came out at the right time, he came with his son Wu Chongxun today, and he can be regarded as an elder, in order to save the face of the Wu family, he deliberately went to toast to the crown prince Li Xian and the crown princess Wei: "The prince, the princess, we will be in-laws in the future, and we hope to take care of each other and help each other!" ”

Li Xian didn't have a good impression of Wu Sansi, but he had a gentle personality and didn't want to offend people, so he clinked glasses with Wu Sansi: "This is natural, my family is tired of King Liang." This girl has no rules, please bear with me. ”

Wu Chongxun got his father's eyes, and followed with an echo: "Your Royal Highness the Prince, please rest assured, Xiao Wang will never treat the princess badly, how she liked to live in the past, and it will remain the same in the future, I will never restrict her." ”

Wei Shi looked at his future son-in-law, his heart was overjoyed, and his eyes then switched to Wu Sansi, only to feel that he was majestic and extraordinary, and unconsciously smiled: "Look, this King Gaoyang can talk a lot, and King Liang is really a good godson." ”

Li Xian is not good at words, so he snorted twice.

Wu Sansi seized the opportunity, faced Wei's, and smiled: "It's all a family, these polite and false gifts can be avoided, I don't know if I can make an appointment to get together, and I can discuss the marriage between the dog and Princess Anle, there are some details that I definitely don't want to make my own opinions, and I ask Her Royal Highness the Crown Princess for guidance!" ”

Wei's eyes were like silk, and he said with his cheeks back: "Today is Zhang Guogong's banquet, and our private affairs will be discussed in detail another day, but is it better to go to the East Palace, or is it appropriate to go to your palace with King Liang?"

"It all depends on how convenient the crown princess is." Wu Sansi was very calm under this hot gaze.

Li Xianshen thought big: "Xiangsong, you have full authority in this matter, you and King Liang have made a decision, you don't have to ask me." ”

"The prince is busy with official business, and it is good for the concubine to thank him for sharing." Wei Shi smiled at Wu Sansi again.

Wu Sansi didn't expect this unexpected gain, which made him pay special attention to Wei's,, although they are sophisticated with a smile and a smile, but they are not to the point of vulgar powder, and they are still amorous women.

The musicians came on the stage, enchanting and abnormal, the dance steps were swaying, and everyone was sighing.

Wu Yanji thanked Li Chongrun, but there was nowhere to vent the fire in his heart, so he found an excuse to leave the table.

Li Chongrun was afraid that he wouldn't be able to think about it, so he followed on his hind feet.

When the two arrived at a remote place by the lake, Wu Yanji stomped his feet angrily: "Just a face, dare to call himself a national prince, it's a shame among men, hiding under a woman's skirt all day long to make a trick!" ”

Li Chongrun looked around: "Brother Wu is usually calm, why isn't he calm at the moment?" Last time, you advised me to be cautious in my words and deeds, but today it is better to bear with this breath. ”

"Brother Li, what Zhang Changzong said at this banquet is so vicious, he is not only belittling my Wu clan, but also mocking your Li family by the way." Wu Yanji's indignation could not be eliminated.

"What is the reason for this?" Li Chongrun didn't realize the mystery, "Why did Brother Wu say that?" ”

"He deliberately mentioned that Ashina Mo came to the Celestial Empire to ask for marriage, and the empress intended to let Yanxiu marry the Turkic princess, but Na Mo Si was disrespectful, saying something 'I want to marry the Li family with a daughter, and use the Wu family'...... Brother Li, I don't mean anything else when I mention this, the Zhang brothers despise my martial family, but they may not be waiting to see your Li family, he said this old matter involving our two families, didn't he have the intention of sowing discord? ”

Li Chongrun's heart sank: "Brother Wu, don't be like such a villain, their brother relies on the empress, since we can't afford to provoke it, let's hide, I believe that dormancy is not cowardice admitting defeat, but wisdom." ”

The more Wu Yanji thought about it, the more angry he became, and cursed in his mouth: "I really hate that I can't break these two bodies into ten thousand pieces!" ”

Li Chongrun looked around again: "Don't say it!" Continue to go back to drink, you and I have been away from the table for a while, it is inevitable that people will be suspicious, pity us a dignified imperial grandson, a county king who inherits the title, and he is so up-to-date that he snorts like this! ”

Wu Yanji smiled bitterly: "I'm afraid that you and I can't stand it in this world." To put it mildly, Brother Li, even if your father is a prince, he is in name only, and the weight of his words is not as heavy as that of the Zhang brothers, so they are arrogant and domineering, in the final analysis, it is the empress who favors them and snubs her relatives! ”

The heroic young man's eyes became solemn, and he was silent for a long time. Wu Yanji was a little annoyed that what he said was too direct, patted Li Chongrun's shoulder, and said helplessly: "Let's go!" Only when nothing has happened, can you live comfortably without heart and lungs. ”

When the two of them walked away, half of their heads poked out from behind a palace wall, with an ecstatic look, just now he heard with his own ears that someone was going to be unfavorable to Zhang Guogong, and he was worried that he would not have the opportunity to get close to the filial piety of Guogong, but now it is good, it is a godsend!
