Chang'an, Kaihuafang.

Pengwang's Mansion, backyard.

On the flower stands, peonies, chrysanthemums, orchids, rhododendrons, all in full bloom.

In the small lake, green lotus, lotus, and flower canopy are scattered.

A chaise longue lay flat in the shadow of the courtyard wall on the east side, and a young and beautiful pregnant woman wearing a pink wide skirt with a high bulging belly lay on the chair a little sleepy.

In early July, the weather is no longer so hot, and the afternoon is even warmer and lazy, so that people don't want to move, and their eyes blink, but they can't open them.

More than a dozen maids, servants, and stable women around were all waiting carefully.

Princess Nanchang's birth date is in these few days, and no one dares to be careless.

A slight sound of footsteps sounded in the rear, Liu Jinyu, who was obviously a little drowsy, and even had fallen asleep in a daze, suddenly woke up, she raised her head slightly, and Li Zhu was already standing carefully on the side.

"Princess, the prince has sent a letter from Kuozhou." Li Bi carefully handed Li Xuan's letter to Liu Jinyu's hand, then bowed slightly and retreated.

Liu Jinyu took the letter, held it in her hand, and didn't open it, just gently rubbed her lower abdomen, and murmured: "You Aya has a letter, do you want to read it, if you want to see it, call A-Niang, A-Niang will read it to you." ”

When the maids on the side heard Liu Jinyu say this, they couldn't help but lower their heads.

Liu Jinyu's tone is getting more and more strange these days, and sometimes, it is obviously very solemn, but the tone is unusually naughty.

Naughty like a child who hasn't grown up......

After a while, I don't know what I heard, Liu Jinyu finally opened the envelope with a smile and took out the three pieces of letter paper inside.

Three, Liu Jinyu was a little surprised.

How could Li Xuan write a letter on three sheets of paper.

Liu Jinyu looked carefully, and saw that on the first piece of paper, Li Xuan described in detail the relevant arrangements of himself and Yu Ze since he won the colleagues, as well as the scenery beyond the Anya Pass, Zeku and Henan.

Later, he talked about the construction of a bridge at the mouth of the Longwu River, and mentioned the idea of a suspension bridge.

In the end, he also said that the army of Lanshan Dao killed the Nanshan Pass, and his tone was very brisk, and he also said that he would send grain and grass to the south side of Nanshan in a few days to join the army.

Liu Jinyu showed a touching smile on her face, then sighed lightly, picked up the second letter, and the letter contained a scripture:

Praise to Shakyamuni Buddha!

Praise Nan Wu Medicine Master Liuli Light Rulai!

Praise the Medicine Teacher Meeting Buddha and Bodhisattva!

Or if a woman, when she is about to give birth, suffers great suffering, and if she can praise her name with all her heart, and respectfully offer to the one who comes, all suffering will be removed.

The son born of him is full of form, and his appearance is upright, and he who sees it rejoices, and he is wise, and he is safe and sick, and he is no other person, and he robs him of his spirit.

Praise Nan Wu Medicine Master Liuli Light Rulai!

Praise the Bodhisattva of Nan Wu Sun Shining Everywhere!

Praise the Bodhisattva of Nan Wu Moonlight!

On this piece of letterhead, there is only this Buddhist scripture, and nothing else, but Liu Jinyu knows everything.

"The son that is born of them is full of form, and his form is upright, and he who sees it rejoices, and Ligan is wise, and he is safe and free from sickness, and he is no other man, and he robs him of his spirit." Liu Jinyu couldn't help but touch her bulging lower abdomen, and said softly: "Look, you Aya is thinking about you." ”

Li Xuan, a disciple of Taoism, prayed with Buddhist scriptures without scruples when his wife and children gave birth.

What his intentions are, Liu Jinyu can best understand in his heart.

After a long time, Liu Jinyu put the letter in his hand to the side, and then picked up the last page.

There are not many words on it, only three lines.

Untitled: Last Night's Stars, Last Night's Wind

Last night's stars and last night's wind, the west side of the painting building and the east of Guitang.

There are no colorful phoenix wings, and there is a little bit of wisdom in the heart.

"There are no colorful phoenix wings, and the heart is a little clear." Liu Jinyu muttered this sentence.

It seems that between a poem, she and Li Xuan, who are thousands of miles away, have been closely linked.

It was as if at this moment, Li Xuan was standing beside her, silently accompanying her.

This feeling is so real, so clear, even the fetus in the womb seems to feel his father's presence at this moment.

"Pain, pain, don't kick me, don't kick me, it hurts!" Liu Jinyu suddenly screamed, her hand pressing on her high bulging abdomen, full of pain.

The maids around were originally standing on one side, their eyes full of envy, but suddenly Liu Jinyu's screams of pain startled everyone.

Seeing that Liu Jinyu seemed to be in pain, everyone panicked, and at this time, a figure walked out quickly from under the shadow of the tree.

"What are you still doing in a daze, hurry up and send the princess into the house, and call all the stable women over and let the kitchen boil hot water, I'm afraid I'm going to give birth." Although Meng Sheng's face was anxious, his tone was steady, commanding the people around him, everything was in order, and there was no chaos at all.

Seeing that someone helped Liu Jinyu to walk towards the house, Meng Sheng immediately assigned two maids on the periphery: "Immediately go to the princess, Xuanzang Zhenren and Chao Yilang, notify the Lecheng County Mansion, and notify the palace." ”

Hearing the two words in the palace, Liu Jinyu's footsteps immediately paused, then looked back at Meng Sheng, and shouted loudly: "Letter, letter, bring the letter in, bring it in." ”

Meng Sheng hurriedly lowered his body, picked up the letter paper that had fallen on the ground, took a cursory glance, and then hurriedly handed it to Liu Jinyu's hand.

At this moment, Liu Jinyu was sent to the inner room by everyone, and Meng Sheng breathed a sigh of relief.

At this moment, Princess Peng and Ouyang were the first to arrive.

Seeing the best stable woman in Chang'an City enter the room, although her face was anxious, she still didn't forget to turn sideways and ask, "What's the matter?" ”

Meng Sheng arched his hand with a wry smile: "Back to the princess, it was the little prince who wrote a letter to his family, and there was a poem of longing in the letter. ”

"This bastard boy, it's time for him, and he doesn't forget to show off." Ouyang glanced at Meng Sheng a little angrily, then his face turned straight, and said, "Go find Li Bi and ask him to bring the things, now it's time to use those things." ”

"Whoa!" Meng Sheng immediately bowed his hand solemnly, and then turned to leave.

Ouyang turned to look at the other side, and said directly to Su Zang, the chief butler of King Peng's Mansion: "Send someone to Weiwei Siqing and call my uncle over; Send someone to Zuo Qianniuwei again and ask the king of Beiping County to come over; Send someone to Guanglu Temple and invite Guanglu Temple Qing over; Send someone to Zongzheng Temple and invite Qingqing of Zongzheng Temple; Finally, send someone to the East Palace to ask if the prince is free, as well as other palaces, and notify them. ”

Ouyang knew what Li Xuan was worried about and what to do, and she had already prepared in advance.

Her own daughter-in-law, her eldest grandson, her eldest granddaughter, how could she let something happen.

The people Meng Sheng invited were all the ones he could invite with Li Xuan's relationship, but the ones invited by the Ouyang clan were the real big shots.

Although the Ouyang clan usually doesn't do anything, as long as she is in Peng Wangfu, then in the entire capital, no one dares to touch the moth.

That is to say, now all the princes of the royal palaces are serving in other places, and even the British King Li Xian and the Prime Minister Li Dan have all been dispatched.

Now she can only invite the crown prince Li Xian, otherwise she can invite all the clans and royal families over.

After explaining, Ouyang immediately entered the room.

……

When Zhao Gong received the news, it was not early.

Because he happened to be outside the city at that time, handling a case involving some Western Turks living in the capital, and when he received the news, it was just dark.

Pegasus galloped quickly, and when he arrived at Kaihuafang, Zhao Gong happened to see Qin Ming leading Zuo Jin Wuwei to patrol around.

A group of idlers waited for him, and they were driven far away.

Zhao Gong breathed a sigh of relief, nodded at Qin Ming, didn't care about talking more, and then walked into King Peng's mansion.

As soon as I entered the door of the palace, I saw Su Zang, the housekeeper of the palace, greeting people from various palaces in the front hall.

After all, although the princes and princesses are not there, the housekeepers in their mansions are still left.

Entering the backyard, Zhao Gong saw Ouyang Tong of Weiwei Temple at a glance, Li Jingjia, King of Beiping County, Chen Guang, Guanglu Doctor, and Pei Guangxiao, Zongzheng Temple.

In addition to Pei Guangxiao, these are the relationship networks of the older generation of the royal family.

Many years after King Peng's death, those who still have close contacts with the palace are these people except for the royal family.

As for Li Xuan's networks, such as Dou Xuande, the head of the household, and Duan Baoxuan, the secretary of Dali Temple, don't let them come for the time being.

After all, it's one thing to come or not, and if you come too much, it is easy to cause jealousy in the palace, and they themselves may not be willing to wade into troubled waters.

Zhao Gong saluted everyone one by one, and finally walked to Ouyang Tong's side and asked in a low voice, "Cousin, what's the matter?" ”

Ouyang Tong glanced at Zhao Gong with some amusement, then took out a piece of paper from his sleeve, handed it to Zhao Gong, and said, "Da Lang came back from writing a poem in Kuozhou, Sanniang took a look, and then he was about to give birth." ”

Zhao Gong took it and glanced at it, and his eyes immediately sticked: "There are no colorful phoenix wings, and my heart is strange." This is written by Da Lang? ”

Looking at Zhao Gong's shocked appearance, Ouyang Tong smiled with satisfaction and said: "Our nephew, although he usually doesn't write many poems, always writes amazing poems when he is full of emotion. Only envy the mandarin duck but not the immortal, and the heart is a little clear. ”

Although Li Xuan is not deeply involved in the literary world, with these poems, he can be regarded as having a place in the literary world.

Ouyang Tong, Cen Changqian, Ge Fuyuan and other people in the literary world also often discuss and are quite amazed.

Li Xuan's poems are mostly full of emotion, and if they don't come out, they must be amazing.

"Okay, let's wait, tonight, it's just the beginning." Ouyang Tong's face was slightly heavy, the woman was pregnant in October, and when she gave birth, it was especially dangerous, even the Heavenly Family was no exception, although the princely family was not bad, it was not much better.

At this time, Princess Peng Ouyang walked out of it, and after seeing everyone, she saluted one by one, and everyone hurriedly returned the salute.

Ouyang Tong hurriedly grabbed his sister and asked, "How is it?" ”

Ouyang nodded slightly, and said, "It's okay for the time being, what about Xuanzang Zhenren?" ”

"The poor road is here." Wei Xuanzang came from behind, and he didn't seem to have just arrived.

Behind Wei Xuanzang stood Li Bi, and others might think of Li Bi as Wei Xuanzang's entourage, but Zhao Gong knew that he was Li Xuanzang's henchman.

What really matters now are the two brown wooden boxes that Li Bi holds in his hand.

Seeing those two boxes, Zhao Gong couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

At this time, a voice suddenly came from the door: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has arrived!" ”

Everyone in the courtyard was immediately shocked, and at the same time looked at the princess Ouyang, how could she even invite His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.

Ouyang said calmly: "The crown princess is pregnant, and His Royal Highness the crown prince will have to go through this sooner or later." ”

Everyone nodded in agreement, but they knew in their hearts that there were some things that the prince was better at.

Li Xian walked into the backyard a little tired, saw everyone saluting, hurriedly stepped forward to help them up one by one, and said: "It's all my own family, you don't have to be polite, I was in the palace before, and when the news came, it happened that the queen mother also sent someone, so they came together, what is the situation now?" ”

Everyone suddenly understood in their hearts, and without waiting for everyone to think about it, Li Xian hurriedly asked, "What's the situation now?" ”
