12. How much do you know about the old and the new?
By the time Li Bing finished his work, it was already the fourth watch when he returned to Xiangwang's Mansion. He was lying on the bed www.biquge.info the pen "Fun", thinking about what happened today: Qingqing swallowed "Mixiang San", but he was too anxious, but he didn't leave it to Qi Liguang at all, and the stunned monk only said after learning about it: "It's in vain!"
This whole thing was too bizarre for Li Bing, he was lying on the bed, thinking about it, it was almost dawn when he fell asleep, and it was noon when he woke up. As soon as he came out of the room, he saw that the whole garden was in a hurry, so he stopped a maid and asked what had happened.
The girl saluted: "Back to the words of the eldest young master, someone came to spread the word just now, saying that the master will come back later today, and he is already outside Chang'an City at this moment." ”
Li Bing sighed, but he was happy, after waiting for the past few days, his father finally received the news and came back.
As soon as he walked to the main hall, he saw that Aunt Cai, Mi Xin, six other aunts, and his three younger sisters were already waiting in the hall.
Aunt Cai walked up to Li Bing and helped him straighten his collar: "Your father will be back in a while." I heard from people that you didn't call you when you came back late last night, thinking you could sleep a little longer. ”
Li Bing hadn't fully woken up at the moment, so after humming twice, he asked Anzi why he hadn't come.
Mi Xin also came over and said, "He went out early in the morning, and he didn't know where he went." But it doesn't matter, when he comes back, you will introduce it again, and His Royal Highness King Xiang came back in a hurry, which is not rude. ”
Li Bing nodded slightly, thinking about whether to call Anzi back, but he heard a shout at the door: "Master go home!"
The servants and maids in the house were already lined up at the door, and everyone in the hall also got up to greet them.
Li Yu is more than forty years old, with a Chinese face, a dragon and a swallow chin, a mustache, a tall torso, and a burly figure. In terms of appearance, it is almost the same as Li Bing, but there are more traces of the vicissitudes of time, revealing a solemn temperament.
He was wearing a purple military uniform at the moment, and walked into the courtyard with a smile on his face, followed by three or five followers. As soon as he saw Li Bing, he opened his arms and laughed loudly: "You kid has a kind, he ran for more than half a year before he came back, and it was easy for me to find it." ”
Li Bing also greeted him, but he didn't hug him, and looked at him with a smile: "I'm already so old, and my dad won't be too embarrassed to hug me again." ”
This caused laughter, and Mi Xin was about to interject, but he saw Li Yu pull out a woman standing behind him: "Let me introduce to you, this is the 'Zhishuang' girl, I met in Jiangnan." In two days, I will officially accept her as a concubine, and everyone will get to know each other first. ”
"Ha! I was still a dad because I was worried that I wouldn't come back, and after a long time, it turned out that there was a beautiful woman on the side!"
Li Xuan was very arrogant, but the girl was a little shy, listening to Li Bing's words, her cheeks were already a little red.
Looking closely, she is only in her early twenties, and I am afraid that she is not much older than Li Bing. The dress is simple, there is only a plain hosta on the head, and the face is originally delicate, neither eyebrows nor blush, but it looks more like a hibiscus out of the water. A pale pink gauze dress, although it is a bright color, but it is not tacky.
Li Bing said, "The beauty is on the side", and the faces of the two young concubines in the hall have changed slightly, and they are slightly embarrassed. However, Aunt Cai was generous and calm, walked to King Xiang in three or two steps, praised this girl for her delicate and delicate water, and took Miss Zhishuang's hand and called her sister: "From now on, this is your new home." ”
After everyone sat down and greeted them one by one, Li Yu let these concubines disperse, leaving only Mi Xin, Aunt Cai and Li Bing.
A few people talked about gossip, but it was probably nothing more than the recent physical and recent interesting things in the capital.
Halfway through speaking, Li Xun suddenly said: "By the way, I rushed back for several days, just for the day after tomorrow to meet the palace." It's the emperor's birthday again, has there been any news from the palace?"
Speaking of this, Mi Xin sat upright: "The palace has sent someone to spread the word the day before yesterday, and the day after tomorrow I went to the 'Ximing Temple' to make incense, and the evening is still in the Qinghe Hall to hold a banquet." It is estimated that His Royal Highness will be waiting in the palace at the beginning of the hour. ”
Mi Xin paused and said, "I'm afraid that if it's too late, I've already prepared a birthday gift for you." Everything else was arranged. ”
Li Xuan bowed slightly: "I'm sorry for you." He turned his head and said to Li Binghe and Aunt Cai: "This time, it is still the two of you who will enter the palace with me, and you should prepare first during this period." ”
As soon as he finished saying this, suddenly a figure holding a long sword broke into the hall, and everyone in the hall was startled. Li Xuan was already about to stand up, but he heard Li Bing shout in a slightly complaining tone: "Anzi!"
The person who came was An Qingfang, he was originally looking for Li Bing, but at this moment he saw that there was suddenly one more person in the upper hand position of the hall, and he immediately held a long sword in the hall, and he didn't know how to say hello for a while, and he was stunned.
"Let me introduce you. Li Bing knew that his father didn't like reckless people, and when he saw that Anzi was disheveled at the moment, and he was standing in the hall with a long sword in his hand, he knew that this first impression was not good, and he hurriedly came out to play a round: "Dad, this is An Qingfang, and it is my sworn brother who made friends when I went out." Just like Daddy and Uncle Mi Xin, we are through hardships together. ”
After Li Bing finished speaking, he saw that Anzi was still standing in the hall in a daze, so he coughed lowly.
"Ahh
When Li Yan heard this, he hummed softly, but he still stared at Anzi's face. His eyes were like torches, and his face was indeed a little scary at this moment, and Anzi didn't even dare to look at him. Li Bing felt that the atmosphere was a little weird, and hurriedly called out to Dad.
King Xiang came back to his senses at this time, and in order not to embarrass his son, he coped: "Hmm." That's right! It's a hero out of a boy, what did you just say your name was?"
An Zi glanced at Li Yu and saw that he was still looking at himself: "My original name is An Qingfang, and my uncle can call me An Zi." ”
Li Yu sighed and asked where his ancestral home was, and Anzi said that he didn't know about wandering since he was a child.
Li Bing saw that the more he said this, the more strange it became, so he opened the topic: "Anzi, why did you come up with a sword?"
He was also stunned when he heard this, and only then did he realize that he was still holding a long sword in his hand at this moment: "This is the sword I fought today according to Uncle Zhou's method, which is completely different from that of the Meridian Sect." Uncle Zhou said it's not bad, I want to bring it back to you to see, who knows......"
Li Xuan laughed twice, looking at Anzi embarrassed, but it didn't matter.
He was interested in the sword, and when he saw that the long sword in Anzi's hand was pure black, he suddenly became interested: "You might as well show it to me." Taking the sword, he flicked the blade twice with his fingers, and the sword made a long beep.
"Yes, it's a good sword! it's a little lighter, just right for you. ”
Anzi was very happy when he heard this, thanked Li Yan for his praise, but couldn't find any words, standing in the hall was a little embarrassed, so he said hello and retreated, Li Bing also said that he wanted to go and see it and followed out of the room.
After they left, Li Xuan stroked his mustache, suddenly turned his head and asked Mi Xin: "You never think that Anzi is very similar to a person?"
Mi Xin didn't understand what King Xiang was referring to for a while, and frowned and asked who it was.
"His surname is An, and he is a square character, don't you think it's ......"
Mi Xin suddenly realized, and his face was shocked: "Thinking about it like this, it's really exactly the same!"
The Bronze Sparrow Division of the Imperial Palace was originally a place to make the harem concubines laugh. This time, the third prince is very interested and also came to visit.
"Squeak!" Li Shu took a handful of bird food in front of the cage and teased the yellow finch inside.
There was a noise of birds in the yard, but he still recognized the sound of the armor behind him: "How's it going?"
"King Xiang has arrived in Chang'an. Miss Zhishuang is also there!" The person who answered was Li Shu's henchman "Yu Linghui". He was on duty today, and at this moment he had changed his military uniform and changed to armor.
Li Shu snorted, and continued to whistle to tease Huang Finch, reaching out to feed, but he was pecked.
He was not annoyed, threw the birdcage aside, sucked the wound on his fingers twice, and said, "Is there still no news from Lingzhen?"
Yu Linghui said: "There is no news at all, and it disappeared out of thin air." ”
"Forget it, don't wait for him. Let's go according to the original plan. I'll just find someone to take his place. ”
