The Legacy of the First Auxiliary House of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 99

Except for Yu Zhining, the remaining real confidantes of the prince are basically around the same age as Du He and Fang Yiai, and at most they are Li Dejian.

But Li Dejian quickly resigned from the prince. The Shangyuan Festival is an important festival for the subjects of the Tang Dynasty. From this night, there will be no curfew for three consecutive days. Almost all the streets and alleys in Chang'an City will be lit with lanterns, and the lanterns in important neighborhoods will be full of sky Like stars, people crowded shoulder to shoulder, not to mention the future, today almost every household must come out to play.

Du He was no exception, "Fang Er, I made an appointment with Cheng Yang to go out later, so let's go first."

After Du He finished speaking, he also followed Li Dejian, toasted a glass of wine, and bid farewell to His Royal Highness.

Li Chengqian still values ​​Du He very much. Although Du He himself is not doing his job properly, it does not mean that Du He is useless. At least he is good at socializing and having fun. is broad.

In fact, when it comes to riding and archery skills, Du He is not bad either, and his crooked ideas follow one after another. In the past, Fang Yiai often suffered losses, but recently Fang Yiai went the "right way", and Du He didn't do much anymore. It's time to play and play room two.

Soon there were three or two kittens left in the hall, and Fang Yiai's apprentice Xin Xin was led away suspiciously, and Fang Yiai didn't have time to stop them.

People like the great eunuch Zhao Dezi are simply the background of the prince and can be ignored directly, but the prince Zhan Shiyu Zhining is obviously a little drunk.

These days, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has improved a lot, not to mention being more prudent and mature in dealing with things. He has also restrained his temper a lot when facing them, veteran officials, but his temper is even more indifferent.

On the contrary, Yu Zhining thinks that such a prince is more dignified. The prince in the past was too easy for people to see his mind, too flamboyant and obedient, and sometimes he had a bad temper because of his foot disease, and he was easily irritated by the fourth prince. .

At this time, Fang Yiai saw that everyone had almost left, and even Yu Zhining was too drunk to go home to accompany his old wife. His Royal Highness asked Zhao Dezi to reward Prince Zhan Shi with a few food boxes. However, if Yu Zhining is rewarded with gold, silver and treasures, he will definitely return the next day after he regains consciousness, and he will chatter endlessly.

If the food is rewarded, Yu Zhining's wife and children can't spit it out after eating.

Li Chengqian smiled faintly, watching his crown prince Shao Zhan Shi standing in front of him, who was about to leave and go back home just like Du He.

"Your concubine's name doesn't match the real name, and you don't need to go home to accompany the princess, so why leave early?" Li Chengqian held the wine glass, but didn't drink it, and rejected Fang Yiai's request without saving face.

I thought it was a sure thing, but who would have thought that the crown prince would not let him go.

Fang Yiai stared at her, but the crown prince looked at each other without a smile in her eyes, and then Fang Yiai remembered that the identities of the two were divided into classes after all, and the superiors wouldn't let them go, so he couldn't leave.

"...I want to go home to accompany my father." Fang Yiai found an excuse.

"Fang Xianggong, I guess he has taken Mrs. Fang out to enjoy the lanterns now." The prince said slowly, and even added a fact about hitting Fang Yiai. "Your brothers and sisters should have followed suit, and you are the only one left in the East Palace."

This is to go back, and the house is empty.

"Uh." Fang Yiai was startled, he was surprised how the prince was so sure.

"Your Highness, isn't it good to have a 'spies' in the minister's house?!" Fang Yiai gritted her teeth.

Li Chengqian still smiled faintly, and if there was nothing like "Oh", his expression was obviously indifferent.

"Your Highness, today is the Shangyuan Festival." It's not the Shangyuan Festival that doesn't allow people to go home and stay in the East Palace overnight.

Fang Yiai stared, at this moment, Wuxin and His Highness the Crown Prince were paying attention to respect and inferiority.

It's just that Li Chengqian looked at him, and there was no one else in the hall except the maids and eunuchs.

Li Chengqian's gaze began to be a little unscrupulous, and there was a sense of ambiguity in his eyes. Of course, this was "seen" by Fang Yiai himself. His heart trembled, and the intuition of a small animal made him take a step back, wanting to stay away. Prince at the moment.

"As my Shao Zhan, why don't you accompany me to Dongshi, how about?"

The prince got up after saying that, Zhao Dezi didn't know when he would come, he had already asked the little eunuch to prepare a cloak, made of the best black fox fur, it was soft and black and shiny, which added a bit of color to His Highness the prince's face and dignity.

Li Chengqian took two steps, and unquestionably took Fang Yi'ai's hand. Fang Yi'ai froze for a moment, and then tried to pull it back, but she didn't.

Just when Fang Yiai was about to use his trick and left the crown prince aside, Li Chengqian turned his head and stared at him, Fang Yiai felt the itch in the palm of his hand at this moment.

For some reason, with a swoosh, his whole body was numb and itchy to the bone.

Immediately, Fang Yi'ai's dantian's pent-up energy dissipated.

Fang Yi'ai's ears were slightly red, and her face was pretending to be calm. At this time, His Royal Highness also let go of his hand, and looked at him with a smile on her face.

Fang Yiai coughed, put her hands behind her back, rubbed her palms that had just been poked with her fingers, and followed His Royal Highness.

There were too many people on the street these days, even if Suzaku Avenue was so wide, it was not suitable for riding a horse at this time, the two of them first took a carriage, and the road was blocked before reaching the East Central.

Because it was a micro-clothes, it was not appropriate to reveal their identities. The prince, Fang Yiai, Zhao Dezi and the guards brought by the prince dispersed, but the guards all vaguely and intentionally surrounded the prince with His Royal Highness as the center.

Fang Yiai was walking on the right side of Li Chengqian, and Zhao Dezi took a wrong step and followed behind him, always paying attention to other people not to bump into His Highness the Crown Prince.

The people in Dongshi are the most crowded in Chang'an City at the moment. People walk next to each other and go deep. The more lanterns placed on both sides of the street, the more beautiful it is.

There are also countless young gentlemen and girls walking slowly and laughing around, and there are naughty boys who are noisy but are watched by their families and servants, for fear that one will get lost accidentally.

Feeling such a lively but heart-warming atmosphere, such a prosperous and prosperous world, Fang Yiai's attention was diverted from the prince for a while, and he forgot his worries and the entanglement between him and His Royal Highness that he had always had in his heart. dazzled.

This girl is good-looking, and that girl is also very good, and that young man of that family looks like a good girl, and he is better than all the girls around the street.

"It's not selfish that I called you here." Li Chengqian suddenly pointed to the high platform in front of him.

Fang Yiai let out a "huh" without blinking her eyes. In fact, there were a lot of lanterns hanging high above them. Somehow, they were improvised tower-like buildings with bamboo poles, each floor was seven stories high. Layers of lanterns have different colors.

When they walked over, Fang Yiai took a closer look, the patterns on each lantern were drawn differently, all of them were beautiful and beautiful, with extraordinary artistic conception, it could be seen that they were not drawn by ordinary painters.

"This is my brother's great ability." Li Chengqian smiled lightly.

Fang Yiai admired it without prejudice, and admitted that King Wei spent a lot of thought, but the amount of money must have been spent.

"Why didn't the East Palace do this?" Fang Yiai was puzzled, afraid of revealing her identity, and asked Zhao Dezi behind her in a low voice.

He would not ask His Royal Highness the Prince directly.

Zhao Dezi glanced at the prince and said nothing, but Li Chengqian took the initiative to pick up a lantern, read a poem on it, and checked the signature. It was the latest poem by a famous talent at the Weiwangfu Literature Museum.

At this time, Fang Yiai even listened to the people around her, especially some girls from aristocratic families who gathered around the high bamboo building and praised these lanterns, as well as the paintings and poems on them. rise.

Fang Yiai couldn't help but look at His Royal Highness's face, Li Chengqian's expression remained unchanged, but his expression was very indifferent, as if the matter had nothing to do with him.

……

They admired the lanterns along the way, but ever since Fang Yiai knew that the high platform was built by King Wei, his mind began to wander and he began to think about it.

When it comes to the ability to "make troubles", Fang Yiai's self-aware tricks are no worse than Fang Yi's, but he hasn't been to the East Palace much recently, and he doesn't pay attention to the enemy situation on Wei Wang's side at all.

It is reasonable to say that he, the prince, is quite irresponsible, that is, after Yu Zhining was trained by the prince, and because of his outstanding achievements, he did not restrain him very much, and the prince treated him... um , had bad thoughts for him, which made Fang Yiai at a loss.

The two of them... that is, a mistake that a man should make.Hmm, a little mistake!

Fang Yiai comforted herself, not to mention how the gentleman of this family is, masculinity is still very popular among nobles, but few people bring it to the table and say that most of them are just raising a few young men for fun, otherwise they would There will be no Nanfeng Pavilion in the brothel.

It is said that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince in history was also rebelled because of the "sexuality problem" and was removed from power.

This is the sword of Damos hanging in Fang Yi's heart, always reminding His Royal Highness the "hobby" and the tragic consequences of failed rebellion.

This is what Fang Yiai has always tried to avoid, but he did not expect that he would get Xinxin out, but give himself up to the prince instead.

This loss-making business is gone.

Fang Yiai was resentful, but he didn't realize that he almost bumped into someone.

She was a girl from a noble family in a luxurious dress. She was tall and plump, with an extraordinary complexion. She was arrogant and arrogant, but because of her age and appearance, she didn't look ugly, but had a different personality.

It was Li Chengqian who pulled Fang Yiai to avoid the collision. The girl staggered slightly and was about to pounce on the prince. At this time, Zhao Dezi behind the prince was quick-eyed and experienced. Let the other party stop again, and did not have physical contact with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.

The servant girl behind the girl exclaimed and hurriedly helped her girl up.

Xiao Wu stood up straight and felt that she had lost face, especially when the sister of the Wang family sat behind her with a smile on her face.

In her view, the other party was laughing at her gaffe.

Xiao Wu was furious, and stared at Fang Yiai, the culprit.

Fang Yiai suddenly lost the thought of appreciating the beauty of the other party, but she was just a spoiled young girl, there are plenty in Chang'an City, what is good-looking, Wu Mei in the palace is also good-looking, even Gao Yang, whom he hates the most, is also good-looking Beautiful and noble.

Fang Yiai didn't realize that Li Chengqian, who had just helped out, still had his arms around his waist at this moment.

"Sister Xiao, are you okay?" The girl with a virtuous face smiled and asked in concern.

Xiao Wu straightened her hair, which was not messy at all, and said, "It's nothing serious, thank you sister Wang for your concern."

She was full of smiles, at this time Zhao Dezi who stood in front of Li Chengqian stepped back and showed the face of His Royal Highness.

Out of the caution and embarrassment of her daughter's family, Xiao Wu took a closer look at Zhao Dezi who had just met her delicate body. Considering that the other party had no beard at his age and looked like a slave, he followed behind Li Chengqian, and Li Chengqian's clothes ...

After pondering for a moment, Xiao Wu's eyes lit up quickly, and she thought of something, and thanked Li Chengqian specially.

Fang Yiai snorted, obviously it was Zhao Dezi who kept her from falling before, but this Miss Xiao thanked others, did she really think others were blind.
