Volume 2 The Tiger Returns to the Mountains Chapter 14 A Promise
In the palace of Tianluo City, a handsome man sat in the pavilion, his long hair was over the shoulder, covering half of his face, wearing a white robe, with a piece of jade tied around his waist, with a graceful demeanor, like a talented scholar, he held a wolf purple rod in his right hand, and held a plain jade bone fan in his left hand, which seemed to write something on the fan.
At this time, a man dressed in a golden python robe, with a piece of gold, embroidered with nine pythons, and the python robe opened left and right walked into the pavilion, quietly sat next to the man in the white robe, and looked at the fan on the stone table with interest.
The young man with long hair covering his face didn't seem to see this person, his eyes were condensed, and his pen was like a god, and each stroke was extremely slow. The man in the python robe did not rush to urge, reached out and picked up the fresh fruit on the stone table and ate it by himself. About half an hour later, the young man with long hair covering his face put down his pen, picked up the fan in front of him with a smile on his face, and looked at it carefully.
Seeing this, the python-robed man who was eating fruit on the side didn't eat it, took half a peach in his mouth and snatched the fan, and said: "Two-sleeved breeze? Well, the writing is good, talent, are you short of silver again? Which adult asked you to write this!"
The handsome man with long hair covering his face was a talent, he put his feet on the stone table without any politeness, put his arms behind his head, leaned on the stone chair behind him and said, "Lord Shangshu, as for which department, I won't say." That Zuichun Building is really a gold cave, even if I use it all, it is not enough to play in Zuichun Lou for three or four days. Can't you write Braille to make a lot of money!"
The man in the golden python robe was His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince, and after hearing what Li Tiantian said, he pouted and said: "Every time you go to Zuichun Tower, you look for the top brand Yundie girl there, in that case, why don't you redeem her for her? Even if she is the top brand, the redemption is only a thousand taels of silver, which is nothing compared to your expenses in Zuichun Mansion in the past few years!"
Li Tian tore off a banana, peeled off the skin and stuffed it into his mouth, and said: "This girl, it's the same as this fruit! If you pluck her from the tree, she will be as delicate as she used to be a few days ago, but as the days go by, you will find that she will slowly become black and bad. So, it's better to let her grow on the tree!"
The fourth prince smiled, and fanned the fan that had just been written out in his hand, "You said that we are about the same age next year, why do you feel so much?"
"Because I know women better than you! Hey, then again, I really admire you! You are a prince and have a noble status, how can there be a woman in this world that you can't get, but you really clean yourself. Last time, I went to Zuichun Mansion with the children of those high-ranking officials to drink flower wine, so many beautiful girls with warblers and warblers, and everything they need to be fat and thin, but you didn't fancy any of them! Wang Zhiyu, the third son of Wang Daxue, did his best to pick out an Oiran for you who can be said to be a drunken flower building, but you just don't move, you don't move, you just move your mouth! What about you, sitting there stupidly like a piece of wood drinking wine, is that wine so delicious! Now is a critical period, the more high-ranking officials and children you attract, the better, how to cultivate this friendship? You know the four great happy events in the world, but do you know the four major feelings in the world?" asked Li Tiantian angrily.
The fourth prince shook his head, Li Tian snorted, and said eloquently: "We have shared the spoils together, we have passed through the window together, we have prostituted together, and we have carried guns together." You are the prince, even if you share the spoils, it will not be your turn, so this one will be forgotten. In the same way, you can't go into battle to kill the enemy. So you and them are only left to go to the drunken spring building to find a girl to drink flower wine, you are not good at this!Hey, the fourth prince, you don't have any habit of breaking your sleeves and dragon yang!" Saying that, Li Tian also hid back from the four princes, with a hint of strangeness in his eyes.
The fourth prince grabbed the banana peel on the table and threw it at Li Tiantian, shouting: "You just broke your sleeve in Longyang!
"Just what?" asked the gift.
"Well, do you remember the girl we met at the noodle stall in Flower Leaf City?" said the fourth prince with a sigh.
Li Tiantian nodded, "Naturally I remember, but..." Li Tiantian didn't continue, he knew that the fourth prince understood what he meant.
"Yes, it's just that she's dead, and she's dead because of me! I'm ashamed!" said the fourth prince with a lonely face.
Li Tiantian shook his head and said in a low voice: "You don't have to blame yourself, this matter has nothing to do with you, even if she doesn't save you, Your Majesty will find a reason to attack the martial arts sect, why do you want to add to the crime?"
"But why didn't my father have any news after he attacked the Shifting Flower Sect? I haven't seen him attack other sects in the past three years!" the fourth prince wondered.
Li Tiantian raised his eyes and looked at the palace maids and eunuchs serving around him, and said loudly: "You all go down!" The palace maids and eunuchs bowed their heads and left. Seeing that there was no one around, Li Tiantian still didn't dare to be careless, his voice was extremely low, and he murmured: "Your Majesty's health is getting worse and worse, I heard news in the palace that Your Majesty is afraid that you will elect the prince in these days, and the prince is your possibility, accounting for 20 percent! Your eldest brother accounts for 50 percent, your second brother accounts for 3 percent, and your sixth brother is absolutely impossible!"
The fourth prince stared at Li Tiantian with wide eyes, "How do you know?!"
Li Tiantian shook his head, "I didn't expect that Scholar Wang would actually stand in your eldest brother's camp, his old man has always pursued the golden mean, and almost never stands in line, isn't there any handle for the eldest prince to catch? And your second brother's camp has Gong Hanlin, the prince of the country, if the eldest is not elected, then it will naturally be the second one, so three percent is just right. As for you, it's hard to say!"
The fourth prince frowned and asked, "Why can't you say? Where might my two percent come from?"
Li Tiantian touched his chin and said: "The national pillars that have not yet stood in line are Taifu Ye Jingyi, Guogong Zhao Ankang, General Zhong Zhixing, and the master of the harem under one person, Sun Gonggong. General Zhong Zhixing, don't think about it, it is impossible for him to stand in line, if you have the ability to pull him behind you, then no one can shake your position as a prince at all, even if it is Wang Daxue Gong Sacrificial Wine. It is impossible for Grandpa Sun to stand in line, this old fox will not do such a thankless thing, the national pillars stand in line just to leave a cute yin for their descendants, but Grandpa Sun has no queen, he has reached the highest position he can reach in his life, there is no shortage of money and power, there is no need to take such a big risk. So you can only try your best to win over Mrs. Ye now, you don't have to worry about Zhao Ankang's side, everyone in the court knows that Zhao Guogong is almost the first to look at Mrs. Ye, and if you pull Mrs. Ye, it is equivalent to pulling Zhao Guogong, this buy one get one free business is very cost-effective!"
The fourth prince looked sad, "How to win over Mrs. Ye? He is not short of silver, and he is already a first-class national pillar with rights, how can I give it? or.... How many beauties are sent?"
Li Tiantian picked up the banana peel that the fourth prince threw at him just now and threw it back, and scolded with a smile: "What do you think! Mrs. Ye is over seventy years old, and you give him a beautiful woman? Can he stand it! When the time comes, he can only watch it, and if he can't touch it, won't he hate you even more? Or if he can't help touching it, and then he doesn't come up in one breath and reports to Lord Yama in advance, wouldn't it be a great loss for you?"
The two young people laughed in unison, it was indeed very interesting to arrange the imperial court pillar Ye Taifu in this way!
The two of them laughed enough, and the fourth prince said solemnly: "Then let's be serious, what does Mrs. Ye want?"
"A promise!" said lightly.
"Promise, promise, what?" the fourth prince wondered.
Li Tiantian stroked his shoulder-length hair, and said: "Mrs. Ye's eldest son joined the army and died on the battlefield ten years ago, but he also has a second son, who is currently the prefect in An Yucheng. It's just that this person has no children under his knees, only one daughter, that is, Mrs. Ye's granddaughter, twenty-eight years old, has not yet married, looks as beautiful as a flower, but pays attention to the right family, the whole Tianluo City can be worthy of her There are really few people, if the fourth prince marries her, it will become a family with Mrs. Ye, and Mrs. Ye will naturally fully support his grandson-in-law. ”
