Chapter 271: The Five Princes

The next day.

The three little ones came to the imperial garden early to wait.

Today they are going to have a pre-match draw here.

Although it is not clear what the content of this month's competition is, the mere fact of leaving the palace is enough for these princes and princesses to be excited.

This naturally includes Princess Ankang.

If she didn't need to sit in a wheelchair and maintain her personality, I was afraid that she would already be excited and couldn't hold back, and she was so anxious that she turned around in place.

The other princes and princesses were in the same mood.

Especially those who are a little younger, they have always lived in the palace like Princess Ankang, and have never stepped out of the imperial city.

They were also curious about what lay outside the high walls.

These princes and princesses had only heard of what life was like outside from their close attendants.

Although the eunuchs and palace maids around him all said that life in the palace was better, everyone would more or less reveal their memories of the outside world.

Therefore, these princes and princesses all feel that there must be something outside the palace that is not available in the palace.

And it must be some rare treasure, otherwise how could it make so many people forget?

And the news of leaving the palace this time also attracted many faces that had never been seen before.

For example, now, not far from the three little ones stood a polite figure.

The strange prince stood alone by the lotus pond in the Imperial Garden, enjoying the scenery from a lonely height.

He held a paper fan in his hand, and a few lines of poetry were written on the paper fan.

It's just that the word is too exaggerated, so Li Xuan can't tell what is written on it at all.

"Is it the legendary cursive script?"

Li Xuan doesn't know much about this, but he just thinks that if he can't understand the words, it should most likely be cursive.

Because this is the only font he can call by name, and he can't read it at all.

This prince looks like a young scribe, revealing the temperament of a scholar from head to toe, but it looks very abrupt among the princes and princesses.

And this person seems to be the same as Princess Ankang, who is not very popular.

He stood by the lotus pond for a long time, but no one came up to talk to him.

And he seems to enjoy this lonely state too.

"I didn't expect the Fifth Emperor Brother to come here today."

Seeing Li Xuan curiously looking at the figure by the lotus pond, Princess Ankang touched his head, and then said softly.

"Oh, that's the Five Princes?"

Li Xuan picked the corners of his eyes in some surprise.

It was the first time he had seen this man in the royal garden gathering in more than a year.

Looking at the age of the fifth prince, he should be about the same age as the eighth prince, but the two of them are diametrically opposed in temperament.

The Eighth Prince is more like a gentleman who fights a dog, but the Fifth Prince in front of him is like a scholar who is preparing for a scientific examination.

A royal heir like him, Li Xuan is also the first time to see him.

"My Fifth Emperor Brother is a little ......"

"Lone High."

Princess Ankang finally found a suitable wording.

"When he was younger, he would come to the party in the Imperial Garden."

"But then he felt that this activity was just delaying his reading work, and the others had nothing in common with him, so he gradually came less diligently."

"Every month it's all kinds of leave, and most of them are sick."

"Although my father asked everyone to come to the party in the Imperial Garden, those who don't want to come always have their own way."

As Princess Ankang spoke, she reached out and stroked Li Xuan, and couldn't help but sigh softly.

In fact, if you want to ask for leave and don't come, you have to divide people.

It's like their Jingyang Palace, even if they want to ask for leave and don't come, they have to find someone first.

Jingyang Palace is a cold palace, and the three small people who live in it are not allowed to enter and leave at will, and outsiders are not allowed to approach there at will without a legitimate reason.

Therefore, in the past, even if Princess Ankang was reluctant to come to the party in this imperial garden, she could not find anyone to ask for leave in advance.

If you don't ask for leave in advance, if you don't come on the same day, you will definitely be criticized, and it will be even more troublesome at that time.

Therefore, Princess Ankang was reluctant at the beginning, and gradually accepted this fact, and began to enjoy the opportunity to go out once a month.

Otherwise, for the first three hundred and sixty-five days of the year, all she could see every day was the exact same dilapidated scenery in Jingyang Palace.

At least on this day every month, he can also see the legendary Imperial Garden and enjoy the exquisite scenery of this royal garden.

Among these many royal heirs, there has never been a shortage of one or two lonely figures.

To be honest, these children of Emperor Yongyuan are not lacking in freak temperament, it's just a more or less problem.

The concubines and ladies also followed their children to join in the fun, but the pomp and circumstance were much simpler than before.

Maybe everyone knows that today is not an official game, just a draw in advance.

They were also all gathered in their own pavilions according to their factions, and occasionally chatted about the matter of this out-of-palace competition.

Li Xuan's ears were very sharp, and he could almost hear the conversations in the Imperial Garden clearly.

In the words of these concubines, there are many people who feel a little envious of their children for having the opportunity to go out of the palace to have fun.

It is not easy for them to be mothers, and they may not have the opportunity to see their parents all year round.

Many people enter the palace, and the relationship outside the palace can only be completely severed, allowing their former existence outside the palace to slowly disappear until they are completely forgotten by everyone.

Only those concubines who are illustrious and extremely favored can continue to maintain their existence outside the palace and let everyone remember them.

Li Xuan shrank in the arms of Princess Ankang, looking at the bustle in the imperial garden.

It didn't take long for Zhao Feng to bring people over.

Because it was just a lottery today, they didn't have any special arrangements in the Imperial Garden, they just set up a small platform, ready to be used for the lottery later.

"Your Highnesses."

Zhao Feng cleared his throat and shouted loudly.

The discussion in the Imperial Garden gradually stopped, and everyone quietly waited for Zhao Feng's next step.

"This month's Imperial Garden Tournament will be held outside the palace."

"Before the tournament takes place, there needs to be a simple draw."

"Now, please start with the eldest prince and go to the stage in order to draw lots."

Zhao Feng did not explain the content of the game today, but directly started the draw before the game.

The eldest prince and others in the audience couldn't help frowning.

Although they have been informed that this month's game will be held outside the palace, it is not clear what exactly the game will be.

And now Zhao Feng let himself start the draw, which makes the eldest prince start to think more about how the order of the draw will affect the game.

The eldest prince turned his head to look at his younger siblings, then nodded at them, and stepped onto the stage without hesitation.

In terms of bearing and appearance, the eldest prince is impeccable.

This eldest son of the royal family is actually okay, but his life is a little bad, and his mother is just a concubine, not a queen.

And this has also caused his current embarrassing position.

After experiencing contact during this period of time, Li Xuan actually had some pity for the eldest prince.

At the beginning, the eldest prince broke into Jingyang Palace, and looking at that Go look made him feel a little inexplicable.

But after going to Qingshu Hall a few times, Li Xuan gradually understood the mood of this great prince.

"With a mother like Zhang Guifei, this guy is also unlucky."

Li Xuan shook his head secretly and sighed in his heart.

At this time, the eldest prince had already come to the stage to complete the draw, and under Zhao Feng's instructions, the eldest prince showed the note in his hand to everyone.

"Chang'an, B3."

Everyone in the audience frowned in unison when they read the contents of this note.

"Please wait a while, and then the old slave will explain the contents of the sign."

Zhao Feng spoke, respectfully reaching out to the stage.

The eldest prince didn't say much, nodded and walked off the stage first.

The eldest prince was followed by the four princes, and when Li Xuan saw this order, he couldn't help but look up.

"Didn't the second and third children come today?"

Li Xuan couldn't help but feel curious.

He thought that leaving the palace this month would attract these princes and princesses who didn't show up much on weekdays.

It's a pity that there are still people who missed this month's Royal Garden game.

It seems that not everyone in this palace is very interested in this competition of Emperor Yongyuan.

Just like Princess Yuan'an before, if she hadn't met Li Xuan, she was afraid that she would not have come to participate in the competition in the future.

Li Xuan looked left and right, and sure enough, he saw the figure of Princess Yuan'an not far away.

And Princess Yuan'an is holding the cat she raises in her arms, Bai Xiao.

Princess Yuan'an has been secretly looking at Li Xuan in Princess Ankang's arms, and when she saw Li Xuan looking at her, Princess Yuan'an couldn't help but tremble in her heart, and held Bai Xiao's hand subconsciously hard.

Bai Xiao meowed innocently, raised his head and looked at his master curiously.

Princess Yuan'an realized that she was out of shape, and hurriedly smoothed the hair of Bai Xiao in her arms, and the change of her movements was extremely natural, without letting Bai Xiao see anything wrong.

Princess Yuan'an seemed to be smiling and stroking Bai Xiao in her arms at this time, but her heart was not as calm as it seemed.

"Ah Xuan looks at me!"

"He must be looking for me, right?"

"It must be to see if I'm coming to the competition today!"

"Great, Ah Xuan has me in his heart!"

Princess Yuan'an thought about it herself, and the more she thought about it, the happier she became, and she was even more energetic when she touched the white night in her arms.

Bai Xiao didn't know why, but thought that the master was in a particularly good mood, so he obediently lay in Princess Yuan'an's arms and let her touch herself at will.

But if you let Bai Xiao know that while her master is touching herself, she is thinking about other cats, but I am afraid that she will not have such a good temper now.

Li Xuan looked at Princess Yuan'an, who was staring at him from a distance, her face flushed, she swallowed her saliva wildly, and wantonly rubbed Bai Xiao, she was so frightened that she couldn't help but lean back, revealing a frightened expression.

"I haven't seen this guy for a while, why do you feel more perverted!?"
