As soon as I got out of the palace gate, I saw Li Dan, the tall and straight Xiangwang standing in the shade of a tree. Li Xian said that he was stunned, a stone statue, which can be regarded as a disguised praise for Li Dan. At this time, Li Dan was facing away from Wan'er, wearing a jade crown and a long body.

Wan'er quickened her pace, ran a few steps closer, and was about to say hello, when a crispy, soft, soft and thin voice rushed into her ears, "Your Highness, what is the difference between you and the spring cherry blossoms today?" ”

The person who made this contrived voice was none other than the Empress Wu's personal maid Chun Ying.

I don't know where she suddenly flashed out, or she has been entangled near Li Dan for a while, at this time she twisted her waist slightly, her eyes were full of light, and the voice spit out from her delicate lips became more and more delicate.

Li Dan, who usually doesn't smile, is obviously not good at dealing with this situation, so he took a step back and replied reluctantly, "The skirt is newly made?" ”

The gorgeous and persuasive woman continued to sneer: "Chun Ying combed her hair in a half-turned bun today, don't you see it?" Look at it again, how are my mandarin duck eyebrows dyed today? As he spoke, he got closer to Li Dan, and he was about to fall into his arms.

Li Dan had no choice but to continue to retreat, and said perfunctorily as he retreated: "It's very chic, it's very chic...... It's a pity that I don't understand, it looks the same......" The first half of the sentence surprised Chun Ying, but the second half of the sentence spoiled the scenery.

Wan'er felt that the situation was funny and funny, but it was inconvenient to show it on her face, so she coughed lightly and pretended to meet by chance, "Chun Ying, it turns out that you are here, and the Queen of Heaven has called you to serve." ”

This sudden interruption made Chun Ying look indignant, but Wan'er under the guise of the Empress Wu, no one dared to slack off.

Chun Sakura hated and said, "I know, I'll go." "Don't forget to gouge Wan'er with her eyes, but she smiled shyly at Li Dan like a chameleon, with a very different attitude, "His Royal Highness King Xiang, Chun Ying retired first." We'll see you another day. ”

Li Dan couldn't wait to answer her, and when Chunying turned around three times and walked a little farther, he exhaled heavily, obviously relieved.

Wan'er covered her mouth and laughed, and Li Dan also shook her head and laughed.

The two laughed for a while, and Li Dan said to Wan'er, "It's good that you're here, otherwise—"

"Is there really anything Your Highness can do?" Wan'er asked seriously, "As far as the slave maid knows, there are many admirers of His Royal Highness in this palace, and with just one spring cherry, His Highness can't cope with it?" ”

Although Wan'er's words have an element of ridicule, they are also true. Xiangwang Li Dan is the youngest son of the Empress Wu, although he does not speak much on weekdays, but he is very magnificent, heroic, and his natural noble demeanor has attracted many Chang'an celebrities, and there are many court maids who secretly admire Li Dan. Dare to be so entangled, I'm afraid it's only one of Chun Ying.

Li Dan breathed a long sigh of relief and emphasized: "Wan'er, you are really a living bodhisattva who saves suffering." This sentence alone is enough to show that he is really powerless to deal with it.

Wan'er smiled: "Your Highness, don't bother Wan'er...... Spring cherry blossoms are so beautiful, has His Highness noticed it at all? ”

"Beauty is beautiful, I don't know why, I'm always a little stunned when I see her." Li Dan said embarrassedly.

Wan'er suddenly realized that Li Dan's refusal to enter the palace was because of this, and she couldn't help but say a few words to the British king Li Xian who was enjoying the sweet syrup in the palace.

looked down and saw the scripture book he was holding, and stuffed it to Li Dan, "You are a nobleman of Tianhuang, afraid of a slave, what are you talking like!" Luckily, Wan'er knows you're joking. ”

Li Dan took the scripture and just changed the subject, "Thank you, Wan'er." It is said that asking people to copy the scriptures religiously is more spiritual. I didn't believe it, but now I do. ”

"Your Highness, you haven't even opened it, and you still don't know if it's agreeable?"

"There is no reason to be disagreeable." Li Dan said with certainty.

Wan'er was a little proud, and said: "Your Highness is the same as Her Royal Highness the Seventh today, and you are also here for Princess Taiping's birthday?" ”

"Yes and no." Li Dan's answer was a little strange, "I don't have fresh ideas, I rely on the seventh brother to think about it, and I only have one thing to worry about-" The words stopped, very worried.

"Your Highness is worried about something?" Wan'er asked with concern.

Li Dan sighed softly, "I want to take this opportunity to let the sixth brother also come to gather." ”

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince?" Wan'er repeated, a little surprised. Yes, the sixth brother in Li Dan's mouth is Li Xian, the crown prince of the dynasty.

Wan'er came to the side of the martial arts queen and pinched her fingers for a while, from the beginning of the trembling to now with the King of England and the King of Xiang is already very familiar, the strange thing is that she has never seen the famous prince Li Xian, this doubt has long lingered in her heart, but the reason is not something she can inquire, today I heard Li Dan take the initiative to mention it, and I was inexplicably panicked.

"My sister's birthday, can the prince not come?" Wan'er said she couldn't understand.

Li Dan looked a little dazed, but he still tried his best to defend his brother, "The sixth brother is in the prison country, and he has recently been concentrating on the revision of the Book of the Later Han Dynasty. Besides, the sixth brother pursues perfection in everything, and he must be exhausted for the sake of cultivation, so how can he have the spare energy to take care of other ......"

Wan'er didn't know how to answer, remembering that when she was in the court, even the maid who did the most heavy work, talked about the prince Li Xianlai, she also looked stupid, one moment said that he was handsome and chic, and the rhetoric was graceful, and the other time said that he was indifferent and arrogant, unruly, and some knowledgeable palace people would also say that the emperor took a special fancy to this son, and praised him many times for always being involved in court politics and always fair and clear, so he was loved by civil and military officials.

But legends are just legends, and Wan'er can't imagine the truth of a son who hasn't seen his mother for a long time and a mother who rarely mentions her son. The busy state affairs and the revision of the classics are certainly good reasons, but if you think about it carefully, it can't be a reason at all, everyone knows that the East Palace is not far from the queen's bedroom, and the closed-door revision of books is not isolated from the world.

Li Dan saw that Wan'er was silent for a long time, thinking that she had something else on her mind, and said cautiously: "Wan'er, I see that your face is not very good, are you too tired recently, the girl's family always has to sleep well, or I will ask my mother to let you be on duty at night......"

Wan'er hurriedly waved her hand, "Thank you, Your Highness, for your compassion and concern." Wan'er is fine, she eats soundly and sleeps. ”

Li Dan was skeptical, looked at Wan'er carefully, and then calmed down, "Don't say it, compared to when I first saw you, my face is fuller, and my hair is more shiny." ”

Wan'er was not very comfortable with his scrutiny, and showed a slight embarrassment, "The King of England is still in the palace, see if you can enter the palace now, I will cook some pear soup that you like to drink." ”

Li Dan didn't realize the rudeness, listened to Wan'er's words, and realized that he was really a little thirsty, so he decisively said yes and strode towards the hall.
