Chapter 13: Xiao Guifei
It turned out to be Liu Chen, the king of letters, who spoke.
Xiao Yin was very happy when he heard that it was Liu Chen's voice, and was about to go out of the pavilion to joke with him, but found that there was a thin and handsome person next to him, and suddenly the jokes on his face froze, and a lot of nervousness appeared in his heart. This person is none other than the crown prince Liu Ke.
Xiao Yin hurriedly shrank back half of his body, followed behind his brother, walked out of the pavilion in small steps according to the rules, and bowed obediently to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and King Xin.
Liu Ke smiled slightly and said goodbye. It's Liu Chen, it's rare to see Xiao Yin with such a well-behaved appearance, and he can't help laughing. As soon as he turned around, he saw Liu Yan standing stiffly under the pergola without embarrassment, so he stepped forward and pulled this sister over.
"Today is a chrysanthemum viewing party, it should be a day to meet and have fun, and those red tape is better to go." Liu Chen smiled and said to Liu Ke, "But the little brother and the lord and the prince are also rare friends with similar tempers, why don't we sit together, drink tea and chat, the emperor brother looks good?" ”
Xiao Yin's heart tightened, thinking about what happened to His Royal Highness King Xin today, but he had saved such a game.
However, Liu Yan walked over happily and said: "I don't like the people of the Xiao family, but since you can become the seventh brother's close friend, then I also recognize you two friends." ”
Xiao Huan made a gesture.
"Xiao Yin thanked the princess." Xiao Yin said, stealing Liu Ke, but seeing that he was still smiling gently.
While he was talking, a palace man came over, but it was the internal supervisor of Fengyi Palace, who passed on the meaning of Xiao Guifei and came to invite Xiao Yin to enter Fengyi Palace. The palace man walked in front of Liu Ke and bowed his body lowly, very cautious and respectful.
"Go ahead." Liu Ke said this gently, and even the expression on his face did not change. Xiao Yin retreated with the inner prison, but he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince seems to be gentle and peaceful, but in fact, he is so treacherous and fighting in the open and dark. There is always no trace of emotion on the face, but there are thousands of ravines in the heart, I am afraid it is unimaginable. Sure enough, the East Palace is not an easy place to play, Xiao Yinguang looked at it from a distance, and he felt that he couldn't breathe.
In contrast, although my aunt was sometimes arrogant and spoke harshly, she was real and close, and not so disturbing and frightening.
Xiao Guifei was full of pearls and colors, reclining on the couch and pretending to sleep. Surrounded by several palace laves, they all quietly, or beating their legs, or plucking the incense in the incense burner. The smoke rose gently, curling around each other, and clustered this peerless woman between the layers of silk tents.
This is as beautiful as in the painting, Xiao Yin secretly exclaimed, the world's stunning beauty, it should be just my aunt's this.
"Ain?" Xiao Guifei's eyes opened slightly, and she was still a little confused.
"Yes, Ain is here." Xiao Yin hurriedly stepped forward.
Xiao Guifei sat up, and a faint smile appeared between her eyebrows: "After a while, there will be those very noisy dramas, I think you may not like those, so it is better to come and sit with me." ”
Xiao Yin replied "yes".
"Is the crown princess okay?" Xiao Guifei asked, while reaching out and dialing the tea stalk in the tea cup, which seemed to be a little careless.
"My sister is sick, so I can't come today."
"She's weak, so she should be sick all the time."
Xiao Yin listened to it and felt that her aunt's words were very strange. When my aunt mentioned her sister, her words seemed to carry a sense of life, and Xiao was puzzled, so she had to respond.
As Xiao Guifei spoke, she turned her head and instructed a palace lady to say, "A few days ago, the South China Sea pearl made of the South China Sea pearl presented by the Duke of Zhenguo was brought to me. ”
Gong E responded, and after a while, she turned out from behind the inner screen with a beautiful sandalwood box. She opened the box and held it beside Concubine Xiao.
"Come here."
Xiao Yin stepped forward, lowered his body, and knelt beside Xiao Guifei. Xiao Guifei carefully inserted Bu Shao on Xiao Yin's bun.
"It's good-looking," Xiao Guifei smiled between her eyebrows, and she actually had a feeling of peach blossoms on her face, "My daughter from the Xiao family in Qilan deserves such a thing." ”
The dinner party after the chrysanthemum viewing party was held in the front hall of Daxing Palace. Although it is a family banquet to enjoy the joy of family, everything is related to the heavenly family, and it is not simple. Even if it is such a day, it is inevitable to sort it according to respect and inferiority. After a long time, I finally sat down and started the table, and it was endless red tape. Xiao Yin couldn't help but feel a little excited.
Finally, when the banquet was about to end, those princes, princesses, and county lords began to say goodbye one after another. Xiao Yin drank some wine, his face was slightly red, and he turned his head to his brother and pretended that he was a little overwhelmed, and slipped out of the east corridor of the front hall.
Xiao Yin walked outside the Nangong Gate. The late autumn night was still a little cold, the cool breeze blew, Xiao Yin felt that Fang Cai's slightly drunk was all awake, but his face was still a little hot.
Probably because this gust of cold wind is a bit biting, the cold and bleak outside the gate of the South Palace seems to be more real than the staggered and lively rhetoric in the main hall.
The moonlight was like water, shining only on the carriages parked by the roadside near and far. At this time, most of the coachmen and servants were in the corridor outside the Nangong Gate, waiting for their masters.
The moon is so bright today, Xiao Yin sighed secretly. It's a pity that now that he is far away in Chang'an, no matter what the solar terms are, there is no way to be beside his parents and bear the knees.
Leisurely and tactful, there was a sound of Xun, and it was carefully distinguished, but it was not the direction of Daxing Palace. Xiao Yin smiled secretly, yes, such a sad and sad tune really doesn't match the laughter and laughter in Daxing Palace at this moment. Probably there are people like themselves, looking at the bright moon and missing their families.
Xiao Yin thought of this, he couldn't help it, clasped his hands in front of his chest, and wished to Mingyue: "If you understand your lovesickness, you will enter the old court for thousands of miles." ”
"I said where did this little girl go, I didn't expect there to be such a Yaxing, looking at the moon by myself."
As soon as Xiao Yin turned around, it was the crown prince Liu Ke and the letter king Liu Chen.
Liu Chen smiled: "This sentence is interesting, so hearted, Chang'e on the moon can't bear to brush your face." ”
Xiao Yin hurriedly saluted and said, "Talking nonsense casually, let His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and His Royal Highness King Xin laugh." ”
"I've seen your demeanor in Luoyang, but I'm really not used to your modesty now," Liu Chen was still joking, turned his head to look at Liu Ke, and said, "It's getting late, so I'll leave first." While he was talking, a little servant had already led the horse. Liu Chen turned over and walked away.
It was simply impossible for Xiao Yin to react, this dashing and uninhibited King of Faith had disappeared into the night in front of the Nangong Gate. Xiao Yin swallowed back the "hey" that had been in his throat.
"This king of letters, he is also known as a good friend, it's really not interesting." Xiao Yin muttered secretly in his heart, and couldn't help but think about it for a while, and he didn't know what this prince was thinking, so he didn't speak when he stood in the wind.
Xiao Yin began to feel chilled at this time, and wanted to reach out and tighten the cloak, but hesitated and felt that it seemed to be rude.
Liu Ke looked at Xiao Yin's small movements, and the corners of his mouth between his eyebrows smiled quietly.
