Traveling through the Gaowu Tang Dynasty, Li Kuan and Li Shimin became the second sons of the Prince

“Brother, can you take a look for me? Is this a suitable gift for… ahem…?” The pair of dragon and phoenix jade pendants in the hands of His Royal Highness Prince Chu was given to him by his royal grandfather when he was drunk. According to the old man’s original words, “My dear grandson, if you fall in love with a girl in the future, take this as a token of love.” After His Royal Highness Prince Chu received the jade pendants, he said with disdain, “Royal grandfather, this is not enough!”

So, after hearing his grandson's words, the emperor burst into laughter and said that his grandson had the same demeanor as he did when he was young.

Of course, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was completely unaware of this past.

If he knew, he would probably be even more sad.

"You kid..." The Crown Prince looked at his brother who suddenly became anxious and worried. He suddenly felt amused: "Could it be that most of the effort you put into preparing the gift was spent on this?"

“No…” His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu was always stubborn: “I just looked through my inventory before going to bed last night, and found this.”

"Your jade pendant..." The Crown Prince looked at the pattern on it and had a guess in his mind: "Did your grandfather give it to you?"

"That's not important," His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu waved his hand and asked, "Just tell me if it's appropriate or not?"

"It's quite suitable." After careful consideration, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince finally nodded, and then he asked: "But how are you going to send this jade pendant to someone else? The birthday banquet has separate seats for men and women. Besides, you want to meet Miss Yu in private, and your teacher Yu will know about it later..."

"Don't worry, Master Yu won't be sent away in a fit of anger." His Royal Highness the King of Chu obviously knew his mentor: "He is not as pedantic and fragile as Master Xiao."

"You are quite good at praising one and criticizing the other, and you are both good at cutting and beating at the same time..." His Royal Highness the Crown Prince smiled and shook his head when he heard this, and then said: "Put the things away. Today, my brother will let Lord Yu accompany you throughout the whole process. The rest... depends on you..."

-------------------------------------

Since the eldest brother is willing to cover for him, His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu, who is planning to send the token of love today, will undoubtedly be more courageous.

But... when he arrived at the Yu Mansion and saw the beaming Master Yu and the bunch of bastards standing beside him...

His Royal Highness the King of Chu knew that he might have to curb his courage.

"Teacher Yu, your students wish you good fortune, longevity and everlasting health!" When His Royal Highness the King of Chu was congratulating his teacher, Li Huairen and his gang winked at each other: You all know why Brother Kuan came here today, right?

We brothers have to help out!

"Your Highness the King of Chu, you are so thoughtful." Master Yu looked at his most proud disciple with a smile on his face.

"Lord Yu, I also wish you good fortune and a long life." The Crown Prince, who had finished writing the gift list for his brother, came a step later and now came in front of Yu Shinan, bowing slightly to him.

“Your Highness, you can’t do that!” Yu Shinan saw that it was the big Buddha coming and immediately stepped forward to stop His Highness who was about to continue to salute: “You are so respectful to me, I am really terrified…”

"What are you talking about, Lord Yu?" The Crown Prince calmly gave his brother a look that urged him to act quickly. He smiled and supported Yu Shinan's arm. The two of them walked towards the lobby together. "Speaking of which, Lord Yu also taught me and answered my questions..."

"Sure enough, at the critical moment, eldest brother is still reliable..." His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu looked at his eldest brother's receding back, and felt moved in his heart.

But before this feeling of emotion could reach its peak, his mind was pulled back by Li Huairen who came to his side.

"Brother Kuan, what are you waiting for?! Go quickly!" Li Huairen said, pointing in the direction of the backyard of the Yu Mansion: "Don't worry, we have brothers to watch over you, and no one will come to disturb you and Sister Lian'er!"

“Ah?!” His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu was stunned upon hearing this: “Aren’t we all so… direct? We don’t even pretend?!”

"Cousin... hurry up!" Chai Lingwu also came to Li Kuan with a pot of fruit juice. "I have made arrangements. Later, the King of Shu and the King of Liang will come one by one to celebrate the birthday of Lord Yu. Remember to hurry up."

"Ah?!" His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu did not expect that his brothers, who he originally thought would not participate in this matter, would know how to give him a surprise: "Xiao Ke and the others are coming too?!"

"What else?" Chang Sun Chong came up to him at some point and said, "Cousin, try harder... I'm going to be a father soon, and you haven't even held my hand yet. It's a bit embarrassing..."

"No, Chang Sun Chong, what right do you have to say that about Brother Kuan?!" Cheng Chumo could no longer bear Chang Sun Chong's use of this as a way to show off: "It was fortunate that Brother Kuan came out and hunted the live goose for you, otherwise the young lady in your family with a nose on her forehead might not have..."

“Alright, alright!” Niu Yong, who arrived shortly after, didn’t wait for Cheng Chumo to finish his words. He stepped forward, hooked his neck, and dragged him out: “Stop talking, all of you. Don’t delay Brother Kuan from doing his work!”

"Oh, that's right!" Cheng Chumo stretched out his hand to grab Chang Sun Chong's ankle and shouted, "Brother Kuan! Whatever you say today must be decent! Don't lose points!"

"..." His Royal Highness the King of Chu looked at Cheng Chumo being dragged away by Niu Yong, and Chang Sun Chong hopping on one foot behind him. He felt that... today's incident... was really hard to say...

Originally, His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu was full of confidence, but... these brothers didn't look reliable...

"Brother Kuan, don't worry about them." Fang Yiai came to Li Kuan without knowing when, and whispered in the ear of the eldest master: "I just asked the maid in the inner courtyard of Yu Mansion for you, and Sister Lian'er is swinging on the swing in the garden now."

"You are still reliable, Yiai!" His Royal Highness the King of Chu did not expect that at this critical moment, the one who really helped was this little brother.

He did not hesitate at the moment. While his brothers were gathered together and the passing guests were afraid of being unlucky, no one dared to look over here. His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu dodged a few people and disappeared among the group of playboys.

-------------------------------------

At that time, in the back garden of the inner courtyard of the Yu Mansion, there was a graceful figure in a white skirt swinging leisurely on a swing, humming a beautiful song.

After dodging two waves of passing servants, His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu quickly found the location of the back garden by following the route he took last time out of the mansion.

Of course, he also saw his sweetheart swinging on the swing.

Ok……

Li Kuan, Li Kuan, be brave. You have been to the northwest for a long time. What are you afraid of now? !

then……

The beautiful lady who was swinging leisurely on the swing suddenly felt that the swing beneath her was no longer shaking. When she turned her head to look, she found a strong hand appeared on the right side of the swing.

"Ahem..." His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu leaned to one side at this time. After stopping the swing, he hurriedly took out the dragon and phoenix jade pendant given by his grandfather from his arms, and then handed over the two jade pendants, saying in a proud tone: "Well... this prince... I recently got two nice jade pendants. Sister, do you want to pick the one that suits your eyes and take it away?"

From the beginning to the end, the young boy who was just beginning to fall in love did not dare to look at the person he loved.

So the next moment...

The phoenix-patterned jade pendant was pulled away from the hands of His Royal Highness the King of Chu by the beautiful woman.

Immediately afterwards...

It was clearly a pleasant voice, but when His Royal Highness the King of Chu heard it, he immediately felt a greater fear than when he saw General Tiance coming to see him during the Jinshan Heavenly Offering Ceremony.

"Oh~~ Li Xiaoerlang, you've become successful now? You even dare to give others a jade pendant?" Wei Shuyi played with the jade pendant in her hand. Although her tone was teasing, she felt an inexplicable sadness in her heart. In this sadness, there was a hint of joy - even though she knew that the other party was not going to give it to her, she still felt happy that she had obtained the jade pendant.

What is the meaning of the word "love"? The solution is no solution.

"Wei... Wei..." His Royal Highness the King of Chu turned his head slightly, and then he discovered that the person sitting on the swing was Wei Zheng's daughter, Wei Shuyi!

At this moment... looking at the stunningly beautiful woman in front of him who was as bright and charming as a phoenix flower, His Royal Highness the King of Chu felt as if he was struck by lightning. He stood still in place, unable to move for a long time.
