Shen Minghuang was busy in Mingyue Tower all day, and when all the banquets were over, it was already late at night when he returned to Fengquan Palace. In the afternoon, after Shen Mingyuan and Wei Yangyang went to fly kites, he sent someone to keep an eye on the two. Now that he was finally idle, he couldn't wait to hear the stalker's return. The subordinate was very clever, and he said that the two of them had been in the garden for an hour, and then they had dinner together in the street, after which the king of Qinghe sent Miss Wei back to Guiyuan. Shen Minghuang pondered it carefully and instructed Ren Jiaxu: "You send someone to the street tomorrow to buy a hundred different kites, the more novel, the better." Then take some high-quality supplements from the house and send them to Guiyuan to Miss Wei. ”

The next day, the little eunuch who sent someone to give a gift came back to report to him: "Your Highness, today the slave went to Guiyuan to give a gift, and the mother-in-law who guarded the door said that they would never dare to accept it without the instructions of the young lady." Shen Minghuang was a little worried, Wei Yangyang was a girl who had not left the pavilion, and male guests were not accepted in the house, and she did not have many friends in Huadu, so the door of Guiyuan was closed all year round. If people don't accept gifts, he can't send someone to break into Guiyuan and force them to accept it. Wei Yangyang was not yet eighteen years old and could not get engaged, and he had not focused on her before. But this year, she happened to be eighteen years old, and she had a lot of dreams at night, so she had to make a decision immediately, not to be preempted by Shen Mingyuan. With the Wei family's family background, Wei Yangyang naturally can't be a concubine, but even if she is a concubine, she can only be the concubine of Fengquan Palace!

In the evening of the next day, after Shen Minghuang was busy with political affairs, he took a carriage to Guiyuan, which was the first time he came to Wei Yangyang's residence. The gate of the courtyard does not look very large, and the decoration of the courtyard wall is very simple. At this moment, the gate is closed, and on the right wall of the door hangs a small plaque with the words "Guiyuan" written on it. The words are beautiful and neat, and at first glance, they are from Song Wenru's handwriting. Shen Minghuang knew that it was very inappropriate for him to rashly visit the courtyard of the girl who lived alone, but the incident the day before yesterday was like a big stone, pressing on his heart. He turned around the door twice, and finally made up his mind and instructed Ren Jiaxu: "Go knock on the door."

Ren Jiaxu stepped forward and buckled the door four or five times, and a small crack opened in the door, and a mother-in-law poked her head out of it and asked him what was the matter? Ren Jiaxu accompanied the smiling face and pointed to Shen Minghuang behind him: "My son-in-law came to visit Miss Wei." The woman's attitude was very good, but she refused him verbally: "I'm sorry, my young lady lives here by herself, and I really can't see the male guest." If your son wants to come and see her, you can go to the alley to find our San Lang in the Wei Mansion. If Saburo agrees, he will send someone to Guiyuan to ask the young lady to go to the Wei Mansion to meet guests. When she said this, Shen Minghuang naturally couldn't find anything wrong. Where a girl in the Wei family lives, even the janitor is a mother-in-law, and the people waiting inside must also be maids. No matter how noble his status is, there is nothing wrong with people not letting him in. But he must not go to Wei Mansion to find Wei Bingge and ask to visit Wei Yangyang, which is difficult to do.

He had no choice but to step forward and report to his family: "You tell your young lady that I am Wu Gongzi, and she will meet me." The mother-in-law replied to him: "Wu Gongzi, our young lady is not at home." She went out at noon this evening, and might not be back until later. Shen Minghuang asked, "Where did she go?" The woman shook her head: "I don't know." Every time the young lady went out, she only told us when she would come back. And it doesn't say where she went. "Wei Yangyang has always been alone, and she doesn't like to take a maid when she goes out, and the next person doesn't know where she went, which is too reasonable. Shen Minghuang had to sigh: "Okay." Then the woman saluted him and closed the door.

When he returned to the car, he was very disappointed, and he had nothing to find today, so he could only go home first. When Ren Jiaxu saw him sitting firmly, he ordered the coachman to turn around. The car had just driven a few meters deep into the alley and was about to turn around, when Shen Minghuang suddenly ordered: "Stop." Let's wait. Ren Jiaxu was very puzzled: "Your Highness, let's wait here?" Shen Minghuang was a little helpless: "Otherwise? They refused to entertain male guests. "It's late summer, but it's still very hot. Ren Jiaxu poured him a few cups of mung bean soup and kept wiping his sweat. But after Shen Minghuang drank the mung bean soup, he still felt extremely hot in his heart. Although he knew that Wei Yangyang would be able to conquer people, it would be absolutely impossible for him to marry into the royal family as a princess, at most he would be a concubine. But the Wei family only has this one daughter, no matter which palace she enters in the future, Wei Shuping's heart will naturally favor that prince. He didn't understand, he had started planning this matter when he was in Gusu three years ago, but why did he let Shen Mingyuan take the lead?

He waited a short time when he heard the sound of a carriage coming from the entrance of the alley. Hearing Ren Jiaxu say that it should be the car of Qinghe Palace, he got out of the carriage and waited at the end of the alley. At this moment, it was dark, and under the reflection of the lanterns at the door of each door of the alley, he saw Shen Mingyuan's carriage parked in front of the Weifu at the entrance of the alley, and did not drive in. Shen Mingyuan and Wei Yangyang, on the other hand, were chatting while walking slowly towards the end of the alley. The attendants of the Qinghe Royal Mansion did not disturb them, and only followed from a distance.

Wei Yangyang seemed to be holding a toy in his hand, playing with it as he walked. Shen Mingyuan looked at her, and his tone was very doting: "It's fun, right?" Wei Yangyang's rise to play, he didn't look up at him, but just smiled and said, "It's fun, it's fun." After she operated the toy again, she raised her head to Shen Mingyuan: "Why is the face change so interesting?" I couldn't even see how the servant had changed four masks and finally changed his original face. If it weren't too late, I'd love to be there for another hour. Shen Mingyuan hurriedly agreed to her small request: "The troupe of this Shu land will stay for several months before leaving when they enter Huadu." If you want to see your face change, I'll take you there in a few days when you're better. Wei Yangyang nodded happily and began to fiddle with the toys in his hand again.

Shen Mingyuan teased her: "A few days ago, the Begging Festival was passed, have you improved your embroidery skills?" He mentioned embroidery, which was one of the things Wei Yangyang was not good at, and she had to defend herself: "I have naturally made progress, but I have only studied for a few months, but it is a little stronger than when I can't get a stitch, and I just know how to merge threads." There are many things she hasn't learned or seen, Shen Mingyuan has never made fun of her, and even praised her a little deliberately: "Really? Is it progressing so fast? Her eyes widened with a smug expression: "Hmm." Taking advantage of her good mood, Shen Mingyuan took the opportunity to make a request: "Okay, then you study hard, and send me an embroidery on my birthday next year." Hearing that he was going to accept the gift, Wei Yangyang was so frightened that he hurriedly stretched out his hands in front of him: "How is that possible, I won't embroider any peony or phoenix like others, Your Highness just broke my fingers, and I can't do it." ”

Shen Mingyuan didn't follow: "Then you just embroider a simple pattern, I'll have a birthday." I think about it, or you embroider two red beans on the veil and give them to me. Wei Yangyang's face showed a puzzled look: "What does Your Highness want red beans for?" Is this embroidered on the veil not the moon in the water, which should not be eaten or drunk? In this way, when you are born next year, I will go and cut down a few red bean fields, and you can have as many beans as you want, okay? Seeing that she was so puzzled, Shen Mingyuan stretched out his finger and flicked it lightly on her head: "Move your smart little head and think about it, do you remember Wang Wei's poem "Acacia" that I taught you to memorize last time?" Wei Yangyang didn't know why he suddenly mentioned this, so he had to answer: "I remember." Although she hadn't learned poetry before, she was very smart, and if Shen Mingyuan asked her to memorize it, she never forgot it. Although she didn't study today and was not proficient in memorization, she didn't make a single mistake.

Shen Mingyuan was satisfied: "My back is getting better and better." The last sentence "This thing is the most lovely", understand? Wei Yangyang seemed to understand: "I know, red beans mean lovesickness." But we are all in Huadu, we can often meet, and we are not separated by the ends of the world, why do we want to send red beans? Shen Mingyuan was so angry with her that she didn't know whether to be angry or laugh, seeing that she couldn't understand anything, she had to play tricks: "Let you embroider and practice hard, there is still a year to go." If I don't get it next year, I'll be angry. He said "will be angry", but there was a smile on the corner of his mouth, and it was obvious that it was just a joke between young couples.

When the two of them got closer, Shen Minghuang saw that what Wei Yangyang was holding in his hand was a face-changing villain made of bamboo. The little man had eight masks, and with the flip of his hat, he would conjure up one, just as interesting as the face-changing man on the stage. Such a wonderful and useless design is Shen Mingyuan's handwriting at first glance. It can be seen that she likes it very much, and when she talks to the other party, she will press the villain's hat from time to time.

Because Shen Minghuang was standing in the shadows, and the two were talking happily, they didn't have the idea that there was a third party. The two walked slowly to the door of Guiyuan, and Wei Yangyang went to knock on the door. When the woman opened the door and saw that it was her master, she left the door open. Shen Mingyuan waved his hand, and the two little inner eunuchs walked up and handed the seven or eight boxes they were holding in their hands to the woman, obviously, what was contained in them was also a gift he gave to Wei Yangyang. The woman and a maid took the box and retreated to the door.

Wei Yangyang was also about to go in, she turned around and reluctantly said goodbye to Shen Mingyuan: "I've arrived, the weather is so hot, Your Highness hurry back." Shen Mingyuan took her right hand and begged for praise like a child: "Hey, you haven't told me yet, do you like this gift or not?" Wei Yangyang nodded desperately: "I like it very much, big and small face-changing villains, it's enough for me to play for a while." Shen Mingyuan lowered his head and looked at her again and smiled: "That's enough, don't forget to memorize poems and practice calligraphy." Wei Yangyang hurriedly agreed: "Yes, I know, and I still have to learn the rules, I remember them." Shen Mingyuan listened to her assurance, and was ready to leave: "Then I'm leaving?" But I didn't expect her to say mischievously: "Your Highness can not leave, you can lie at this door and sleep all night." Shall I cook a few dishes tomorrow morning and send them out for you to eat? Ha ha. Shen Mingyuan was so frightened that he hurriedly shook his hand: "I don't dare to eat the dishes you cook." Okay, okay, let's go back to the room and rest early. After that, he watched Wei Yangyang enter the Guiyuan, and then walked to the carriage at the entrance of the alley with confidence.

The conversation between the two of them just now almost made Shen Minghuang so angry that he vomited blood. The dialogue, the action, and the expression are clearly a pair of young men and women in love. Wei Yangyang is very alert on weekdays, she said that she didn't find herself standing in the dark for a long time, obviously because she only had her lover in her eyes and didn't care about other people. Listening to Shen Mingyuan's meaning, he has been teaching Wei Yangyang to read for a long time. He is the concubine of the current queen, if he doesn't like it very much, how can he deign to teach a girl to read. Shen Minghuang Wei Yang doesn't know how to cook at all, and the female celebrity is what she hates very much. But now it sounds like she is willing to learn embroidery and cook for the sake of Shen Mingyuan, if she doesn't fall in love, how can she be willing to learn? What made Shen Minghuang even more shocked was that today was the ninth day of the seventh month, not the day when Wei Yangyang went to the Qinghe Palace. The information he found out was that she had to get Mrs. Wei Bingge's permission to go out if she wanted to go out. Even if he wanted to see her just now, he had to go to the Wei Mansion to inform Wei Bingge before he could call her over to meet her. Now the two of them went to the theater together and saw late at night, and Shen Mingyuan personally sent her back. The doorkeeper was not surprised at all when she saw him, so it can be seen that he often came to deliver him. The interaction between the two must have been with Wei Bingge's permission!

What he saw tonight made Shen Minghuang shocked and angry, and stood at the gate of Guiyuan for a long time. Seeing Shen Mingyuan's car go away, Ren Jiaxu dared to call him: "Your Highness, let's go back?" Shen Minghuang's thoughts were confused, and he didn't make a sound, but just got into the carriage silently. He thought carefully about the various scenes since he met Wei Yangyang in the car, and asked himself if there was anything wrong. But why is there such a big gap in Wei Yangyang's attitude towards the two brothers? Could it really be because he accidentally injured her in front of Princess Tyranny? Angry, she switched to Shen Mingyuan? But she is not only her, that is the power of the entire Wei Family Army in the military department. Thinking of this, Shen Minghuang's heartache was difficult to calm down, and he almost wanted to jump out of the car and rush back to explain to her. He clenched his hands into fists and tried his best to comfort himself: "No, just because she can overcome people, she can't marry the sixth child." It only needs to spread the matter of her ability to overcome people from Haixi to the ears of Queen Tang. What I can't get, don't even think about it. Thinking of this, he was relieved.
