The current king and queen of Dawan have a son and a daughter, and for the king of a country, his children are too few. At the beginning, the royal family, including him, did not expect the previous king to be beheaded, so he did not think that he would one day ascend to the throne.

The relationship between the king and his wife is very good, and they are also old, and the concubines left by the first king are not blessed, and they have become decorations one by one. Although there are few heirs, there will not be no successors, and the problem of thin children will not bother.

After the two expeditions to the west, the influence of the Han in the Western Regions reached an unprecedented height, and those small countries were full of awe of the Han, not to mention the princess, even if it was a great Han envoy, they could command their king to be busy.

Although Dawan is a powerful country in the Western Regions, it is also a vassal state of the Han Dynasty, and the current king has entrusted the blessing of the Han Dynasty to sit on the throne. Knowing that the princess was being peeped at, he sent hundreds of guards not to mention, but also to protect him day and night, for fear that there would be the slightest mistake.

Not only that, the queen invites Liu Ye for almost three meals a day, and prepares delicious meals in different ways, so as to please her. Liu Ye's treatment in Dawan is worlds different from Wusun's, which is probably unexpected by Jun Xu Mi and Su Qige.

The queen has shown her favor many times, and Princess Dawan did not show weakness, and she sent someone to send an invitation to Liu Ye early in the morning on this day, inviting her to attend the dinner in the princess's mansion. is also a princess, Liu Ye naturally can't ignore others, and immediately agreed and sent a return gift.

There were hundreds of guards around the dormitory at all times, and even if the assassins grew wings, they couldn't fly in, let alone get close to Liu Ye. Liu Ye thought to himself that even if the assassin had the courage to send him to death, he would not be so stupid as to take his life in vain, and he might not show up in the next few days, unless there was a suitable opportunity.

I don't know why, Liu Ye wants to create some opportunities for the assassins, she has been in the Western Regions for more than a year, she has experienced everything, how many times she has escaped death, she has already looked down on life and death. She is not afraid of assassins, she has a life to live until now, and she is not worried about whether she can leave Dawan alive.

To Liu Ye's surprise, the princess's mansion was actually in the palace, but the location was more remote, the dormitory was located in the east of the palace, and the princess's mansion was in the west, the distance was farther away, but it still didn't leave the palace. According to the usual practice, Chang Hui and Feng Yan stayed behind to take care of Zhao Ziqing and the young husband, and the division accompanied Liu Ye to the banquet.

The area of the princess's mansion is not large, equivalent to two sleeping palaces, except for the princess's daily living place, the rest are reserved for leisure and relaxation. The sunset is sprinkled all over, the pond water is rippling, the arch bridge is graceful, the flowers are blooming, the refreshing fragrance comes to the nose, and the soft grass is not a little leisurely.

Liu Ye admired the beauty of the garden, and guessed that Princess Dawan must be a very interesting woman, such elegant scenery can be seen everywhere in Dahan, and Shanglin Yuan has achieved this Jiangnan charm to the extreme. However, in the Western Regions, where materials are scarce and water sources are scarce, it is not easy to achieve this level.

"Master, have you found anything in the last few days?" Liu Ye walked into the pavilion and sat down, before Princess Dawan came, she still had some time to talk to Shizhong.

Shi Zhong understood that the discovery she was referring to was the scene that Chang Hui and Feng Yan had seen that night, and he had been looking for the person named "Isanke" for the past few days, but unfortunately there was no such person among the noble ministers of Dawan. The division secretly investigated, and it was inconvenient to ask anyone who had heard of this person, so the investigation was forced to be suspended.

"Not yet." Shi Zhong replied succinctly, Liu Ye nodded, puzzled, "Could it be that our direction is wrong?" ”

Shi Zhong lowered his head and thought about it: "Maybe, it's time to think about it in a different direction." ”

"Well, then there's Master Lao." Even if the conversation between Liu Ye and Shizhong is heard, it is estimated that he will not be able to hear the reason.

"Haha, it turns out that Princess Xie Wei is also here!"

Liu Ye and Shi Zhong both raised their eyes to look, and Tu Qitang, who was dressed in casual clothes, walked over with a smile, and the elegant light cyan robe wrapped around his tall and sturdy body, he actually looked handsome. Tu Qitang's dress is obviously an imitation of the teacher, and he even imitates the hairstyle of the teacher.

Shi Zhongsen's male temperament is incomparable, and the simple dress suits him very well, no one has ever seen a man like him, who is as natural and fresh as him. Tu Qitang seemed to be here to PK with him, but I have to say that he has this strength.

Tu Qitang is really a mystery, he is both good and evil, people can't see and guess clearly, when he is coquettish, he is more enchanting than Wei Lu, and occasionally pretends to be a literary and artistic youth, but he is not compared to the teacher.

When Shizhong saw him, he immediately became vigilant, he subconsciously blocked Liu Ye, faced Tu Qitang, and said coldly: "What are you doing?" ”

Tu Qitang stroked the long hair on his chest and smiled slightly, that kind of charm made Liu Ye have an illusion, as if he saw Li Yannian in Shanglin Yuan.

"The guards in the division, you can come, why can't I come?" Tu Qitang walked into the pavilion with long legs, elegantly climbed the stone steps and walked into the pavilion, with a bit of mockery on the corner of his mouth, glanced lazily at Shizhong, and sat down beside Liu Ye calmly, "I went to your dormitory to pick you up just now, but I didn't expect you to come first." ”

When Liu Ye heard him say this, he suddenly thought of something: "You also received an invitation from Princess Dawan?" ”

Tu Qitang looked at her with satisfaction and smiled, and suddenly stretched out his index finger and hooked the tip of her nose: "Well, smart!" ”

"Stop!" Shizhong couldn't believe that Tu Qitang dared to despise Liu Ye in front of him, and without thinking about it, he grabbed his sinful wolf claw. Unexpectedly, Tu Qitang withdrew his hand more quickly, like a nimble fish, and escaped smoothly from the hands of the division.

Shi Zhong froze in mid-air with his empty fist, he obviously grabbed Tu Qitang's wrist, but how he escaped, he didn't even notice.

Tu Qitang stilted Erlang's legs and smiled disappreciatively: "The guards in the division, if you have something to say, why are you so nervous!" You don't look like a reckless stream, I'm very optimistic about you, sit down, I have something to say to you princess, if you don't worry, let's listen to it together! ”

Shizhong warned him unceremoniously: "Don't touch the princess again, otherwise, I will never let you go!" ”

"Okay, good ......" Tu Qitang raised his hands to make a surrender gesture and promised funny, "It's just a joke, you don't need to really do it!" Okay, I'm serious, I'm not going to joke with you! ”

"What serious things do you have to say?" Liu Ye pulled Shizhong to sit down and teased Tu Qitang, "Idle is idle, it's good to listen to you laugh and pass the time." ”

Tu Qitang leaned forward, supported the stone table with his elbows, supported his chin with his palms, and looked at Liu Ye and Shizhong with a smile: "Have you heard of the local customs of Dawan?" ”

Liu Ye picked up the tea bowl and handed it to his lips: "What custom?" ”

"Before the woman of a big family in Dawan gets married, she can let the maid test her future husband......"

Before the words fell, Liu Ye choked on the tea in his throat, coughed a few times, and looked at Tu Qitang embarrassedly. Tu Qitang paused and asked curiously: "What?" Have you heard of it? ”

Liu Ye nodded: "Well, I've heard of it, you don't need to say it." ”

"Oh, I'm going to say it if you've heard it, so listen to it again!" The smile in Tu Qitang's eyes was mixed with narrowness and playfulness, and his tone became ambiguous.

"You're bored, can you change the subject?" Liu Ye didn't want to discuss Dawan's custom with Tu Qitang in front of his teacher.

Shizhong looked at Liu Ye and then at Tu Qitang, and wondered, "What kind of custom is it?" ”

Tu Qitang pouted: "Well, the guards in the division haven't heard of it, I told him to tell it!" ”

Liu Ye turned his head: "I'm too lazy to pay attention to you, boring!" ”

Tu Qitang laughed twice, and said to the teacher seriously: "I'll go on, the maid will test Miss's husband if it's okay, come back and report to Miss, if Miss doesn't believe it, she can send a few more maids over." Hey, do you understand, I'm talking about that aspect is not good, that aspect is not good! ”

Shi Zhong was stunned, his handsome cheeks flushed slightly, and he lowered his eyes: "Got it." ”

Tu Qitang shook his head helplessly and joked: "No wonder people say that Han people are conservative, and that's true!" What I'm talking about is human nature, who doesn't know who doesn't know, why be so restrained! Alas, in your presence I am like a demon in the middle of the sex, and what an embarrassment! Hey, I'm saying this for the princess, don't think about it! ”

"For me?" Liu Ye snorted, "Save you, I didn't want to hear you say this." ”

"Okay, you don't want to listen, it's what I'm going to say, can you give me some time to finish my words?" Tu Qitang saw that she didn't object, and continued with a sigh of relief, "There is such a noble lady, she has made full use of this custom, and has sent dozens of maids to try five men, of course, those men have had a marriage contract with her, but none of them have passed the test, not even the maid level. ”

How could there be such a thing? Liu Ye and Shizhong had never heard of it, and they all looked at him. Tu Qitang's eyes widened, and he said again and again: "Really, what I said is the truth, you don't believe it, I can't help it, these are confidential." ”

Tu Qitang looked around for a long time, lowered his voice and said: "Listen carefully, just listen to these words, you know what to do, don't say it outside, especially in the palace." ”

Liu Ye looked at his appearance as a woman with a long tongue and felt funny: "You know what? The more secrets that people don't tell outsiders, the easier it is to leak out, and you can't call it a secret if you pass it on like you. ”

"Whether you believe it or not, it's always good to listen to it." Tu Qitang whispered mysteriously, "It wasn't until the sixth man passed the test that the young lady willingly married, and after marriage, she obeyed her carefully selected husband, pleased him at all costs, concealed his identity for him, and did everything to kill for him." ”

Liu Ye was surprised: "What's so good about that man?" Is it worth it for her? ”

Tu Qitang smiled lewdly: "It seems that you haven't experienced the taste yet!" ”

Liu Ye reacted and was swept away by him, and said with a straight face: "You said so much just to make fun of me?" ”

"Of course not!" Tuqitang withdrew his smile and said solemnly, "Because this man is very likely to be related to assassins, otherwise how would I bother to inquire about these things!" ”

Shi Zhong was stunned: "Who is he?" ”

Tu Qitang said: "He was the prince of Yu Cheng, Esanke. ”

"What?" When Liu Ye heard this name, he couldn't calm down anymore, and hurriedly asked, "What did you say?" He's Esanke? Where is he now? ”

"You know him? What ...... he said" Tu Qitang was about to sell a pass, but he heard that the guards came to report that Princess Dawan had arrived.

"We'll talk about that later!" Tu Qitang walked out of the pavilion to greet the princess, Liu Ye and the teacher were in a hurry, but they couldn't ask more questions at this juncture.

I heard that Princess Dawan is over forty years old, and she doesn't look like a middle-aged woman, she looks average, but she is very well maintained, her skin is full and firm, her body is slender and moving, and her dress is even more glamorous.

Princess Dawan saw Tu Qitang, and respectfully took the initiative to greet Liu Ye, Liu Ye politely returned the salute, noticing that she was followed by a young man.

Sensing the confusion in Liu Ye's eyes, Princess Dawan then said: "Princess Xie Wei, let me introduce you, he is my concubine Isanke......

Esanke? Liu Ye's heart was shocked, and he pretended to look at him calmly.
