"Sister Ruyan, you are so beautiful today. ”
From the moment Ruyan entered this Taihe Palace, Su Changan noticed her.
He stepped forward and said.
Ruyan, who was already a little nervous, suddenly turned around when she heard this familiar voice, and when she saw the real smile in front of her, she felt a lot calmer in her heart.
She finally showed her first smile since entering the Great Wei Palace, and she said, "Young Master Su, you are also here." ”
"Yes. Su Changan nodded. "Sister Ruyan is so beautiful, Big Brother North will be very happy to see you. ”
Maybe it was gradually getting used to the atmosphere of this palace, or maybe Su Changan's words made her feel at ease. Ruyan's voice became much smoother when she spoke: "Thank you, Master Su, I like the book you gave Ruyan." ”
"Yes, I love it too. You and Big Brother North will definitely be able to be together like Nanyuan and Jade. Su Changan said this, and the smile on his face became brighter and brighter.
He likes people who like the same books as he does.
For example, don't listen to the rain, or like smoke.
"Oh?" Long Xiangjun, who had been listening to the conversation between the two on the side, raised his eyebrows and said: "Su Gongzi is still a book lover, when will you have free time, why don't you tell Long about the books you like?"
Su Changan was in a good mood because she thought that Ruyan would be able to meet her lover who she had been waiting for for a long time soon. There was also a little less bad feeling for Long Xiangjun, so he nodded and agreed.
"Hehe, isn't this Brother Long? I didn't expect you to come too. At this moment, a hearty laugh rang out, and a man and an old man came together. Su Changan fixed his eyes on it, but it was His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of Great Wei.
Long Xiangjun turned around when he heard this, but there was no surprise in his eyes, as if he had expected such a scene from the beginning. He arched his hand, hooked his waist, and saluted the prince of Great Wei with an extremely standard demeanor, but there was not the slightest respect in the tone of his voice.
"I've seen His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, Prime Minister. ”
He said so unsalty.
"Who are these two?" the prince didn't seem to be able to hear the disrespect in Long Xiangjun's tone, and his face still pointed at Su Changan and Ruyan with a warm spring breeze and asked.
"This is the apprentice grandson of Lord Yuheng of Tianlan Academy, Su Chang'an Su Gongzi. Long Xiangjun pointed at Su Changan and said. I don't know what he thought, but when he said this, his originally somewhat feminine voice suddenly became a little louder. The entire inner hall turned its head at this time and looked at Su Changan.
The smile on the prince's face froze, and the eyes of the old man who had been half-squinting and who was called the prime minister by Long Xiangjun suddenly widened at that moment.
One after another, the divine consciousness was overwhelming and unabashedly poured over.
After they swept Su Changan's body, they retreated one after another.
This process was extremely fast, but it took a blink of an eye, but Su Changan's face suddenly appeared in a dense cold sweat.
It is an impropriety to use the divine sense to probe a monk, and such an unruly thing usually needs to be done in extreme secrecy. And daring to probe a monk with such a blatant divine sense can only say two things.
Either the probe is confident enough not to offend the monk. In other words, in their eyes, the monk was already a dead man, and naturally there was no need to say anything about the dead.
But Long Xiangjun didn't notice Su Changan's strange appearance, or rather, he pretended not to notice.
His gaze fell on Ruyan's body.
His eyes narrowed.
Ruyan's heart trembled suddenly, she had been in the Peony Pavilion for more than ten years, and she was very familiar with this look.
She knew that when the pavilion master showed such a look, she thought that someone was going to be unlucky.
"As for this. It was an Oiran who used to be in my Peony Pavilion. Long Xiangjun said.
As soon as these words came out, everyone was shocked.
A middle-aged man dressed as a military attache who followed behind the crown prince was the first to stand up, he pointed at Long Xiangjun and shouted: "Long Xiangjun, don't rely on the great cause of your Long family to spread wildness everywhere! This is the Great Wei Imperial Palace! The Holy Emperor can let you be a peddler and pawn to participate in the birthday banquet, and you dare to bring a filthy woman from a lowly background!"
General Zhang smiled. The Holy Emperor's great grace, my Long family is in my heart, how dare I forget it, and how dare I rush into his birthday banquet. This time I brought this woman here, but it was a good intention. Long Xiangjun said calmly, not taking the man's scolding to heart at all.
"You still dare to quibble! You obviously mean to insult my saint!" The general surnamed Zhang was obviously enraged by Long Xiangjun's attitude, and he stepped forward and said loudly: "Come on, tie this woman out for me and put her in prison!"
Obviously, this chapter general has a lot of rank, and when he fell to the ground with a loud shout, the guards around him surrounded him, and he was about to catch him like smoke.
And Ruyan is just a weak woman, she doesn't know why things have come to this point, but she subconsciously leaned behind Long Xiangjun, wanting to seek protection. But Long Xiangjun stood there without moving, without the slightest intention of making a move.
Su Changan finally came back to his senses in this sudden change, he didn't know who Ruyan's identity had provoked, and he didn't know why this group of people were aggressive against a woman who had no cultivation. But his hand was already subconsciously gripping the hilt of his sword.
"Wait!"
But at this moment, a voice sounded.
Su Changan looked up, but saw the fifth prince and his senior sister coming over with a group of people, as if he had found the backbone, he put down the hand holding the handle of the knife, he subconsciously thought that the fifth prince and his senior sister would definitely help Ruyan.
The guards who surrounded him naturally did not dare to disobey the will of the five princes, and they retreated after a slight hesitation.
"What does the imperial brother have to say?" the prince turned his head to look at Xiahou Xuan who was coming and said. The look on his face was very sincere, so sincere that it was impossible to find fault with it.
"Brother Huang. Xiahou Xuan also bowed to the prince very respectfully, and the smile on his face was as warm as a spring breeze. He glanced at the calm and relaxed Long Xiangjun and said: "Although Brother Long acts unruly, he is by no means reckless, he brought this woman here, maybe he has his reason, we might as well listen to him, and then make a decision, what does the imperial brother want." ”
"This" The prince was stunned, he naturally knew that what Long Xiangjun did had a simple purpose as it seemed, but he knew better that no matter what this purpose was, it was definitely not something that was beneficial to him. But Xiahou Xuan's words made him unable to find a trace of fault, so he looked at the old man beside him with some hesitation. It wasn't until I saw the old man nod imperceptibly that the uneasiness in my heart calmed down. He said: "In that case, let's follow the words of the emperor's brother." ”
"Thank you to the two princes. Long Xiangjun saluted the two respectfully again, and then he turned to look at the half-squinted old man beside the prince, that is, the prime minister of Great Wei - Sima Xu!
"I heard that His Majesty the Holy Emperor recently recalled Bei Tongxuan, a Confucian general who has always had a reputation for being good at fighting in Xiliang. I don't know if there is such a thing?" His eyes suddenly narrowed into a slit, and some kind of inexplicable light flashed in them, looking directly at the old man in front of him.
It's a bold thing to do.
Looking at the government and opposition of Great Wei, except for the Holy Emperor, I am afraid that there will be few people who dare to stare at this Prime Minister of Great Wei like this.
Because he is a very mysterious person, no one knows where he came from, and no one knows what level of his cultivation is. He was suddenly appointed prime minister by the Holy Emperor, who was suspicious of him, but relied on him. In the midst of such contradictions, he has been in this position of being above 10,000 people under one person for a full forty years.
Wait until those who oppose him are either dead or silent, and the Holy Emperor is already dying and has no energy to deal with him. He seems to have become one of the most powerful people in the entire Great Wei.
And such a person who is as gloomy as a wolf and as powerful as a lion naturally no one wants to provoke. At least it's been a long time since anyone dared to provoke.
But today, Long Xiangjun seems to want to do something that no one has done for a long time.
The Taihe Hall suddenly became quiet.
Everyone's eyes fell on the old man, and they could already imagine what kind of storm it would be when the old man opened his eyes.
But sometimes things can be unexpected.
After a brief silence, the old man nodded suddenly.
"It is true. The old man's hoarse voice suddenly sounded. "He's on his way, and soon Long Gongzi will be able to see him. ”
Long Xiangjun's eyes narrowed even deeper. He asked again: "I also heard that the Prime Minister seems to be preparing to marry his daughter to this Beitongxuan general, and tonight will let His Majesty the Holy Emperor give him a marriage! Yes and no!"
As soon as these words came out, everyone present was stunned.
Xi Liang has recently lost one after another in battles with barbarians, which has a lot to do with the inaction of that Martial King Fu Sanqian, and it is an unbelievable thing for the Holy Emperor to recall Beitong Xuan, who is experienced in fighting with barbarians, at this time. Now it seems that it is very likely that he wants to support a figure who can compete with the martial king Fu 3000.
Ruyan's face also turned pale at that moment, as if another heavy hammer had hit her chest, and her body shook and almost fell. But as soon as she gritted her teeth, she still stood there. With his head down, he didn't know what he was thinking with red eyes.
All this naturally fell into the eyes of Su Changan on the side, he stretched out his hand to support Ruyan, his face was also extremely ugly, but he still comforted Ruyan softly in Ruyan's ear: "Sister Ruyan, don't worry, you have to believe Brother Bei, he will definitely not agree to that family business, you have waited for him for so long." Do you remember Nanyuan? When he was the champion, someone wanted to marry his daughter to him, but he still returned to Cuiyu. ”
"You are Jade, so Big Brother North must be the Nanyuan you have to wait for. ”
