At the end of the fourth year of Yuan Ding, Liu Che took Chen Ajiao to Changxin Houfu to visit Liu Tan, the eldest princess of Nangong.

Compared with the appearance of Liu Tan before the Eastern Tour left Beijing, he saw that he was haggard and leaning on the bed, and he couldn't help but feel thin and windy, coughed a few times, a trace of blush appeared on his face, and he called with a smile: "Che'er can come to see me, I am very tall."

"What did the imperial sister say" Liu Che looked at Liu Tan's appearance, and felt sad in his heart, since the death of the queen mother, the two most important women in his heart, one is Gillian, and the other is this imperial sister who suffered a lot for him when he was young. In the second year of Yuanzhen, in the battle of Mobei, Liu Yi welcomed the eldest princess of Nangong to return to the south, and he thought that he would be able to live a good life and support this sister to compensate for the suffering she had suffered. Unexpectedly, Liu Tan only enjoyed the blessings of the past few years, and then lingered on the sickbed, and the steps he saw were weak.

"Ning'er," Liu Tanci and the six or seven-year-old boy came to the sickbed obediently and said softly: "Mother, Ning'er is here." ”

Liu Tan smiled slightly, took Liu Ning's hand and said, "I haven't seen anyone yet." ”

When Liu Che saw the boy, he turned around and knelt down lightly, and bowed politely: "Ning'er, see Your Majesty Chen Niangniang." A faint smile was about to start. But I heard Liu Tan shake his head and say, "Wrong." Ning'er should call her uncle and aunt. ”

"Che'er" Liu Tan looked at his younger brother and said lightly, "What I asked Ning'er to do today is not a national ceremony, but a family ceremony." Ning'er, he is my biological son. ”

Liu Che was sad in his heart, looked down at Liu Ning's delicate eyebrows, and sighed secretly, "I will treat Ning like the Marquis of Pingyang."

Liu Tan pulled a reassuring smile on his lips, and still let Liu Ning pray at home. Liu Che couldn't stand the heavy atmosphere in the room. Out on its own. Liu Tan looked at his back and sighed, looked at Gillian and said. "It's nice to have you by Che'er's side."

Chen Ajiao hugged Liu Ning. Wen Yan smiled slightly and said, "Sister Tan values Gillian too much." ”

"How so?" Liu Tan said this, and he was a little out of breath and rested for a while. Fang said again: "Che'er is my younger brother, and I know that he is extremely cold and ruthless by nature. Fortunately, with you by his side, he still has a trace of warmth in his heart. Although he doesn't necessarily care about these things, I, as an older sister, still think that he is happier now. ”

Gillian was silent for a moment and teased Liu Ning. After thinking about it, Fang said, "Maybe." I think. The calm situation in front of him was secretly turbulent. I don't know when it will come out. What will it be? ”

"Yes." Liu Tan also sighed and looked at Liu Ning with a smile. His expression was soft: "Although Ning'er is not as smart and clever as your Dimo'er and Chu'er, I would rather he be stupid, as long as his mind is pure and there is Che'er and his father to maintain it, nothing will happen." ”

Liu Ning listened to her mother's ominous words, turned her head in Gillian's arms, looked at her mother worriedly, and called, "Mother." Liu Tan smiled at him soothingly, "It's okay." He added, "I've been on the sickbed for the past few days. Since Mo'er's envoy was poisoned, Buddhism gradually spread to the Han Dynasty. Brother Yi was afraid that I would be bored, so he translated some Buddhist books for me. I read some of it and think it makes some sense. ”

"Really?" Gillian smiled and said that Buddha can make people calm their minds. Liu Yi treats Liu Tan with a deep heart, which cannot be self-described. It's just that Liu Tanshang can explain himself in Buddhist scriptures, how can Liu Yi explain his heart and cry when he sees his beloved wife gradually weakening?

This trip to visit the eldest princess of Nangong, whether it was Liu Che or Chen Ajiao, there was some sadness in their hearts. Sitting on the palace car back to the palace, Liu Che looked at the prosperous Chang'an market outside the curtain and said softly: "When I was a child, if I got into trouble, it was probably the imperial sister who blocked the scolding for me at the queen mother's place. Once...... The queen mother beat me is the medicine that the imperial sister applied for me. At that time, the imperial sister was still young, and she hadn't gone to the Xiongnu and her relatives ......"

He seemed to talk about it deliberately, and he seemed to be careless, but Chen Ajiao understood his thoughts, and sighed: "What Your Majesty said is incomprehensible." Sister Tan cherishes you, isn't it true that Sister Pingyang and Sister Longxi didn't protect you, that is, Gillian also protected you when she was young. ”

A chuckle escaped from Liu Che's throat, hugged Gillian and said, "Now I am protecting you." ”

When Liu Che and Chen Ajiao visited the eldest princess of Nangong, the crown prince Liu Mo was in the Bowang Palace, carefully thinking about the actions of the Li family. "Li Jieyu's eldest brother Li Fei has recently frequently visited high-ranking officials in the non-Chen family's camp; The younger brother Li Qi had a fight with someone in Qinghuan Building yesterday...... Li Fei's concubine went to the Wu family's Chunsheng Hall a few days ago, and personally ran twice and sent the maidservant girl once. What a mess of news. You ...... you say," he raised his eyebrows and saw that his friend opposite was coming out, but he was afraid that he hadn't heard what he was saying for a long time. Funny raised his voice and shouted, "Daily Order." "Huh?" Kim Il-san replied, "What did you say? ”

Liu Mo sneered and asked, "What do you want?" ”

Kim Il-dan was slightly embarrassed and said, "It's nothing. ”

Anyway, he couldn't see anything famous for the time being, so Liu Mo simply pushed it away and concentrated on asking about his friend's affairs. "I'm talking about the daily order." He smiled and asked what he had been skeptical about for a long time: "Tell me honestly, do you like to be early?" Jin Ildan stretched his waist and asked with a lazy expression: "Didn't you always hold your sister to the sky, in this case, isn't it normal for someone to like it?" ”

Liu Mo was stunned, he didn't expect Jin Ridan to admit it so simply, his face gradually became serious, "Is Ridan simply liked?" Still is......? ”

"Yes and no?" Kim Il-san laughed at himself, and his face was filled with long-lost cynicism. "Don't say that I'm just a small doctor, just because I'm a Huns, how can Your Majesty and you marry the most favored Princess Yuening?"

"Not necessarily." Liu Mo pondered deeply, saw Jin Ridan's surprised look, and explained: "I have already reached the age of marriage, although it is not about yet, and I will mention marriage soon." The children of the families in Chang'an City who are worthy of her identity are either squishy or incompetent, and in my opinion, they are not as good as the Japanese list. As for my mother, she probably just needs to nod her head early. It's my father who really gets tough. He looked at Kim Il-san with a smile. said: "Today's daily list is really difficult to make my father nod." ”

That being said. But the sister Liu Mo, who is the most concerned about it, has remembered it. I can't put my mind at ease. The next day, when I asked Gillian to say goodbye, I mentioned this incident.

"Jin Ridan," Chen Ajiao thought about it sideways, "He's still good." Did you just like it early? ”

"It's early," Liu Mo couldn't help but be a little discouraged, "She doesn't know if she came out of Huo Quai's place." But even if she doesn't like the daily list. The mother also paid attention to the fact that she asked her father to marry her at will. ”

Chen Ajiao smiled and said, "Your father won't." ”

After all, he loves Liu Chudang the most, and he will not take her marriage casually. "But I'll remember to ask him what he means." Gillian thought for a moment.

Come out of the temple of Bowang. It's still early. A few days ago, when Liu Che was not in Chang'an, Liu Mo was busy with government affairs, and it was dark. Now Liu Che has returned. He was much more leisurely all of a sudden, and he didn't want to go back to Bowang Hall at this time. Then he turned back and commanded. "Cheng Lie went to find a normal carriage. Let's go outside the palace and have a fun. "In the early morning, the streets of Chang'an City are already very lively, and the blue carriages are running in the market, as if dripping water into the sea, no one notices.

"Master," Cheng Lie said with a smile, "Are you going to Qinghuan Tower?" ”

"Forget it." Liu Mo thought for a while: "Let's walk around the market." ”

"Yes." Cheng Lie answered and commanded outside the curtain. The coachman slowed down and drove slowly through the market. The hustle and bustle reached Liu Mo's ears, this is Chang'an, the capital of the Han Dynasty, the most prosperous city in the country and even in the whole world, many locals live in this city, noisy business, calling. One day, the city and even the country will be in his hands. And can he create a more prosperous era than his father?

Liu Mo thought like this, listening to the sound of the wheels, he gradually turned to the south of the city and suddenly stopped. Liu Mo lifted the curtain and asked, "What's wrong?" ”

"Your Highness," Cheng Lie's voice outside the curtain was a little funny, "I've met someone I know." ”

"Oh?" Liu Mo looked over, and sure enough, he saw a royal blue carriage and horse not far away, spacious and magnificent, obviously not an ordinary family. The girl in red lifted the curtain and smiled at the girl standing under the car, "I wonder if the second lady of Hanzhang can find her way home by herself?" After that, he lowered the curtain and ordered, "Turn around and go home." The coachman replied, yes, and never looked at Shangguan Ling again, and drove away. Shangguan Ling, who was dressed in thin clothes, stood in the wind in a daze and watched the carriage go away.

"Huh," Cheng Lie sighed, "This eldest lady of Shangguan's family is so ruthless, she really left her sister outside alone." ”

"Your Highness," Cheng Lie knew that Liu Mo didn't want to have anything to do with the sisters of the Shangguan family, and asked softly, "Shall we go around?" ”

Liu Mo thought for a while, and finally sighed: "It's a bit dangerous for a girl to be alone in the market. Now that I've seen it, what's the matter? ”

What's more, listening to Fang Cai's words about Shangguan Yun, the anger that Shangguan Ling suffered was mostly related to his mother or him.

"Cheng Lie." Liu Mo instructed, "You go and invite that second lady Shangguan to come over." ”

Cheng Lie took the order and went to say something to the girl. Liu Mo saw the guardedness on the girl's face from a distance in the car, and looked over to see him, looking surprised.

"His Royal Highness the Prince" Shangguan Lingxing came over as a courtesy, knowing that Liu Mo was dressed in Qingyi, and he didn't want people to know his identity, so he didn't salute. Although it just made people see the joke, it didn't look cramped and generous.

If Shangguan Yun knew that Liu Mo, who he admired at that time, was nearby, he would have come back a hundred times, and he would not have chosen to be her eldest lady at that time.

"Miss Shangguan," Liu Mo smiled, "Come on, I'll send you back to Shangguan Mansion." ”

"No need." Shangguan Ling declined and said, "Thank you, Your Royal Highness, the prince, for your concern, although the eldest sister of the courtier has a bad temper, she is not bad." When the anger is gone, he will naturally come back to pick up the courtiers. ”

"Really?" Liu Mo smiled faintly and said, "Then I don't know when it is, Miss Shangguan, let's come up first." ”

Shangguan Ling had no choice but to say: "In this way, thank you for the prince's kindness." At that time, the defense of men and women was not serious, Shangguan Ling boarded the car, secretly thinking about Liu Mo's intentions, she had no friendship with the prince, and it was just a one-sided relationship, and she didn't believe that Liu Mo would care more about herself. Now that the situation has been explained, he should no longer insist.

"Shangguan girl," sure enough, Liu Mo looked out the window and asked lightly: "I heard that it was the girl who was waiting for the ink polishing when my mother replied to my father's letter in Linfen that day. Does the girl know what my mother-in-law wrote? ”

Shangguan Ling was stunned, and said, "If His Royal Highness the Crown Prince wants to know, why don't you ask Chen Niangniang in person?" ”

Liu Mo was silent for a moment.

If he can ask his mother, why should he ask Shangguan Ling here?

"If Chen Niangniang is willing to tell His Royal Highness, she will naturally say." Shangguan Linghui said leisurely: "If the mother doesn't want Ling'er, even if she sees it, how can she tell His Highness?" ”

The royal blue carriage turned around and came back to the street. The coachman looked around for a week, and Shangguan Ling was stunned. Shangguan Ling caught a glimpse of it from the car window and said with a smile: "Oh, I want to come, my sister is almost angry today, and she has come to pick me up." His Royal Highness the Crown Prince Ling'er said goodbye. "Reading on a holiday day
