Seventy-four: The scenery is good during the worship season

The Tingwei Mansion searched intensively in Chang'an City for half a month, but there was still no news of Liu Tang. These days, Zhang Tang, the inner court official, is very troubled, although he is good at punishing prisoners, but he is helpless against these real dead pigs who are not afraid of boiling water. tortured for half a month, and committed suicide, but the three men in black only asked their master, and it was indeed Liu Tang, the eldest son of the former King of Linjiang. After being taken out of the Linjiang palace by the old servant, he lived in the Han Dynasty for many years, and because Liu Tang was not in good health, he came to Chang'an for medical treatment. If you ask Liu Tang about his possible whereabouts, he won't say anything.

Liu Che was naturally dissatisfied with such a result. The king thundered and was furious a few times, and Zhang Tang had to increase his efforts, and ordered his subordinates to closely monitor the last man in black and not let him die easily. There was a solemn atmosphere in Chang'an City, and everyone felt a different atmosphere.

In a blink of an eye, it was the Spring Moon Festival. Traditionally, the festival is to go to the river to cleanse and drive away disasters. These days, in order not to worry her mother, Chen Ajiao has never set foot outside the Tangyi Houfu again, and she can finally let off steam, let alone be happy early.

Yin Shi is the time when the queen mother and the emperor's concubines in the palace are sacrificed. The nobles of the family usually do not go out until the end of the day. The people took the carriage and the horses, and swept out of the Tangyi Hou Mansion and headed towards the Wei River in the northern suburbs of Chang'an. Naturally, he took a team of Chen Mansion soldiers.

The rest of the noble families of Chang'an City naturally want to come out. Chen Ajiao listened to the mutual greetings of other convoys on the left and right roads on the left and right, and said outside the car: "Niangniang is a family member waiting for Moling." ”

Gillian opened the curtain, and sure enough, she saw Liu Ling lifting the curtain in a luxurious carriage on her right. Smiling face.

Liu Ling instructed: "Tell Mrs. Hou Ye that I will go to Chen Niangniang." "Brought the streamer. Get out of the car. The guards knew that Princess Feiyue and Gillian had always been good friends. Unimpressed.

Chen Ajiao also ordered to stop and let Liu Ling come up, and said with a smile: "I haven't seen Ling'er for a few days, and the more beautiful it is." Is there really no favorite Lang Jun? ”

Liu Ling was silent for a while. Fang Youyou groaned: "I wish to have one heart, and people will not be separated." How did I find such a person in this day and age? Look at it, whether it is you or Zhuo Wenjun, such a beautiful woman has been let down. ”

Chen Ajiao was speechless, remembering the unclear bond between her and Liu Che. The so-called family has a hard time reciting the scriptures, and there is really some truth.

"So," Liu Ling smiled brightly. "I am determined not to marry, and I will never wronged myself. It is in this prosperous and splendid Chang'an City. Be a courtesan that never grows old interspersed between the powerful. It's also good. ”

As he spoke, he arrived at the Wei River. The wind blows across the river in early spring. The petals fall in the wind, and the peach blossoms are no more beautiful.

After the sacrifice comes the time to go out on the green land. Heavy government soldiers are waiting and are not afraid of people coming. Gillian and Liu Lingju were not afraid of the cold, so they looked barefoot in the Wei River, looking for the winter fish, splashing each other, and after a while, they were all soaked with each other. Liu Chu was afraid of the cold, and looked enviously on the shore and shouted: "Mother, Aunt Ling, come up, otherwise you will suffer from the cold." ”

Naturally, someone served them and changed into dry clothes. Liu Ling hugged Liu Chu and said, "Let's fly a kite early, okay?" ”

Liu Chu's curious look was very cute, "What is a kite?" ”

"A kite is something that flies in the sky with a string on the ground early in the morning." Liu Ling was smart, and he said he would do it. Tell someone to find a piece of bamboo paper. She and Gillian are both skillful, and after a while, a delicate bamboo kite is made.

Gillian asked to meet the wind early, stand early, let go of the kite, the wind on March 3 was clear and strong, and the kite went up to the sky leisurely.

Liu Chu laughed and watched the kite stagger, and instinctively ran up.

People all around looked up at the beautiful butterfly-shaped kites floating in the sky. No one noticed the group of people coming from the Wei River.

The wind suddenly became stronger, blowing off the thread, and at the sound of the sighs of the crowd, the butterfly and the kite drifted leisurely upstream of the river, and an upside-down onion fell at the feet of the man in gray.

Liu Chu excitedly dropped the spool and ran over, calling out in a tired voice, "Brother." ”

Everyone knelt down and said, "See the emperor." Liu Che said lightly: "Let's get up." The gaze cast on Gillian and Liu Ling was meaningful.

The eldest princess of Pavilion Tao said with a smile: "Why is the emperor here?" ”

Liu Che also smiled: "After the sacrifice, I missed my aunt, so I came to take a look." ”

Dongfang Shuo picked up the kite under his feet, looked at it repeatedly, and praised: "It's really exquisite." ”

Liu Ling and Gillian glanced at each other, and said, "Mr. Carving Insect Xiaoji praised it falsely." ”

Although he is getting older, Liu Che is still a noisy and lively teenager in his bones. At this time, he hugged Gillian and asked the basin in front of him, "Zhongqing, can you guess what is covered in the basin?" ”

Gillian frowned slightly, and wanted to retreat farther away, but she heard Liu Che snort coldly, and the hand covering her waist tightened. She sighed helplessly and said okay. Always within the limits of tolerance.

There was a loud noise from the bowl, indicating that it was a living thing. Everyone guessed and didn't get it right.

"It's about a snake." Dong Yan said with a smile. saw Liu Che shake his head and said, "Although it is not hit, it is not much worse." ”

Dongfang Shuo stepped forward and shook his head: "It's a dragon without horns; If it's a snake with legs, if it's not a gecko, it's a four-legged snake! Liu Che smiled and said, "It's still Dongfang Shuo, that's right." "Ordered to go down and enjoy Dongfang Shuo's ten pieces of satin. I guessed that Dongfang Shuo could be in the middle.

Liu Chu clapped his hands and praised: "Mr. Dongfang is really smart. No wonder my brother always respects Mr. ”

On the side, Dong Yan was unconvinced and said: "If Mr. Dongfang is smart, he may as well guess if he is a riddle." ”

"Let the pot be old Bai Tu Yiyuya."

Dongfang Shuo has never been accustomed to Dong Yan fighting cocks and lackeys with the emperor and playing football. After thinking for a moment, he smiled and said, "Commander." Command. pots and utensils; Dumb. crooked teeth; People always respect him; Bai is the ghost court; The coating is slowly soaked on the road; Iyua is speechless; Aren't there two dogs fighting each other? ”

Everyone admired Liu Ling and lowered their heads. I wanted to find a difficult problem for him. But I saw Gillian shake it silently and said forget it.

When it was late, Zhang Tang sent someone to report that there was a trace of Liu Tang in Chang'an City. Liu Che's expression was solemn and he turned back to Weiyang Palace to deal with the matter.

Chen Ajiao gossiped with Liu Ling again. He told in detail about the difficulties in the Xuanshu Hall that day.

"Then this Dongfang Shuo is really no longer famous in history." Liu Ling smiled and said, "The last question at the beginning. I thought about it for a long time but I didn't figure it out. ”

When she returned to Moyunlou, Gillian thought about this half of her life. Is it just going to go on day by day?

She suddenly looked cold, and heard the sound of light and shallow breathing in the open building. Said lightly. "Who is it?"

"Mother?" Green Yi smiled, "What are you talking about......" She didn't finish her sentence. Behind the brocade curtain, a black shadow suddenly pounced quickly, and in the darkness, the blade of the sword flashed and landed on Chen Ajiao's neck.

The green clothes wanted to exclaim, but the person said lightly: "You don't want your master's life, just shout and see." ”

There was a faint smell of blood in the darkness. Chen Ajiao was not flustered, and said with a smile: "Are you injured?" ---- green clothes to light the lamp. ”

The green clothes answered in a low voice, and stepped forward to light the candle.

Sure enough, it was Liu Tang's young and familiar face, and Gillian sighed secretly: "Did you unintentionally enter the Hou Mansion of Ditangyi, or did you come to me on purpose?" ”

Liu Tang was a little unable to answer, "Why aren't you panicking?" He looked at Chen Ajiao's relaxed expression.

"You were young when your father died." Chen Ajiao said: "I have never seen you. ”

"But I've seen you." Liu Tang sneered: "Daddy, there is a portrait of you hanging in the study, noble and arrogant, so I can't recognize you at first sight." ”

"If your father had a spirit in heaven, he would not want his only blood to bury himself for revenge."

Liu Tang's expression was sad and indignant: "But how can a child be a person if his father does not take revenge?" ”

Gillian sneered: "If that's the case, do you hate the emperor who abolished your father's crown prince?" Do you hate Li Ji Niangniang, who offended the emperor with her words and deeds? ”

"The most ruthless emperor is the king, you might as well think about it."

"Chen Niangniang," Liu Tang sneered, "Do you think I will let you go if you say so?" ”

Chen Ajiao smiled slowly, and Liu Tang felt that her eyes were bright under the candlelight, and she was incomparably arrogant. She grabbed the sword in his hand and twisted it away, and the three-foot Qingfeng hit the copper tripod on the case. There was a thud and a loud voice.

"What's going on?" The people of the Hou Mansion became alert and shouted outside the building: "Is there something wrong with Niangniang?" ”

Jian Feng left, Gillian was relieved, and screamed, "Catch the assassin." ”

Such a big movement naturally alarmed the eldest princess of the pavilion.

"What a bold man dares to stab Gillian. What are the guards of the Hou Mansion for, and they don't even know when people come in. Liu Yan reprimanded repeatedly, and when she saw the assassin's face, she couldn't help but be stunned, remembering that the recent movements in Chang'an City were all clear.

"Mother," Gillian said with a smile, "probably because they all went out today." Therefore, the guards of the Hou Mansion are looser than usual. Don't blame them. ”

Concubine Liu calmed down and said, "Escort him to the Tingwei Mansion." ”

"In the end, the descendants of Gaozu can't be too unsympathetic," Gillian sighed, "stay in the house for one night, and send it tomorrow." ”

Liu Chu heard the words on the side and looked at him curiously, "Who is he?" ”

"He's your cousin." Gillian smiled and said, "It's called Liu Tang." ”

Liu Chu's eyes lit up, "Then will this cousin spoil me like my brother?" But," she wondered, "how could my cousin stab my mother?" "Then," Gillian smiled and lowered her head, "you have to ask your cousin in person." ”

When Liu Tang woke up from his coma, the first thing he saw was this pink girl looking at him with her cheeks up. The eyebrows are quite similar to last night's Chen Niangniang.

"Cousin," the girl said with a smile, "how come I have never seen you?" ”

Liu Tang was silent, and then he realized that his whole body was tied and he couldn't move.

That woman is really a mystery to solve, and she fought so hard last night, and now she actually agreed to let her daughter come close to her.
