The official road of the farmer
Chapter 194
When Xia Houbin woke up again from the gloomy sleep, she sat there holding the quilt for a while, only feeling that the bedroom was cold and empty.
The huge palace is even more cold and boring.
He sat for a while before the palace attendant came in.
"Your Highness Fifth, do you want to get up?"
Xia Houbin nodded slightly, then lifted the quilt and got out of bed.
He is unknown in the palace, due to his personality, he doesn't have a confidant who can talk, only the personal palace servant who grew up with him can speak a few words.
For him, the imperial palace is a huge cage, but he has no ability to break free from the cage, so he can only wake up without hope every day.
Xiahou Ping got out of bed in a daze, and the palace attendants chattered endlessly: "What kind of clothes is your Highness thinking about today? The queen empress sent a batch of spring clothes a while ago, and the sun is warming today. Why don't you wear the ice blue suit? It suits Your Highness." What a beautiful skin!"
His Highness Fifth has also reached the age of forming a contract, so it's time to dress up. He can no longer wear old-fashioned clothes like before. His Highness Fifth is at a very good age, so he should dress brighter.
Xia Houbin has no requirements for clothes, they can dress up however they like.
The palace attendant is very enthusiastic towards him now, but recently the emperor father and the queen mother expressed their concern because of the surprise on the night of the Lantern Festival Lantern Festival, and rewarded him several times.
The eunuchs and palace attendants in the palace respected him a lot when they saw that the wind was turning the rudder.
Look, no matter what he was wearing before, no one talked, but now he is so active and enthusiastic.
Xia Houbin felt rather dull in his heart.
The Empress is very concerned about His Highness the Fifth Highness today, and she may choose a husband for His Highness at some point.
The Fifth Highness went down to pay his respects, maybe his eyes lit up!
His Highness the Fifth Highness did not raise any objections, and the palace attendant sent someone to send a set of fine ice blue silk clothes, embroidered with elegant bamboo leaf patterns and snow-white piping, and wearing suet jade hairpins on his head, which complemented each other and set off Xia Hou. Ping's skin became fairer.
The palace attendant praised: "Your Highness is very beautiful."
Xia Houbin slightly pulled his lower lip.
To be honest, Xia Houbin has a good appearance, but she has a timid temper. She usually keeps her head down in public, and rarely has a sense of presence.
It is estimated that in the impression of many official wives, only His Highness the Fifth Highness is known, and they can't even remember his appearance.
The palace attendant chatted on the sidelines.
Xiahou Bin's thoughts were racing, and he flew outside the palace wall unconsciously.
I don't know how that young master Wen is doing now...
Xia Houbing recalled that when he was protected under his body, he was so frightened that he could only cry, but now thinking about it, he found that he suddenly felt very safe and at ease.
This was the first time he felt at ease.
Recalling that he told him that he would protect him and let him not be afraid...
They used to be so close...
Xiahou Bin blushed silently.
As for Ye Junshu, who once made him miss and thought he could get out of the quagmire, he had long since left him out of his mind. Xia Houbin only had Wen Bihua in his heart now.
Wen Bihua was the first father who gave him a sense of security...
"The Fourth Highness will form a contract in a few days, and then only the Fifth Highness, you will reach the age of the contract. The concubine's words are slight, and I cannot make decisions about your highness's marriage. Your Highness still needs to please the Queen Empress. Only in this way will I treat you I am more concerned about my family."
"Recently, you and the Seventh Prince are getting close, and your empress can see it. If the Seventh Prince says something nice to you..."
After hearing what the servant said, Xia Houbin felt even more repelled.
It seems that he and the seventh brother approached with ulterior motives.
But in fact, it was the seventh brother who took the initiative to approach him, and Xiahou Bing refused for some reason, so he followed the seventh brother many times.
He just...wanted to go out and have a look...
The empress is kind to him now, but it was because he was taken out of the palace by the seventh brother that he was frightened.Out of compensatory psychology...
But if possible, he still wants to go out of the palace to have a look.
I don't know how Master Wen's injury is recovering...
Accompanied by the palace servants, Xiahou Bin went to the queen's palace to pay her respects.
In addition to Xiahou Bing, there were several younger brothers who went to pay respects to the queen.
Xia Houjue's wedding is getting closer, and he is currently preparing for the contract.
Seeing that Xia Houjue didn't come today, Xiahou Fing breathed a sigh of relief.
The other imperial brothers greeted Xiahou Bing, and then stood aside and whispered to each other.
Xiahou Bing was not close to the other emperor's younger brothers, and she was left alone, feeling relaxed.
Empress Li is not a harsh person, and she would not ask the concubines and princes in the harem to greet him every day.
Basically, on the first and fifteenth day of the lunar new year, we come to say hello together. The concubines stagger the time, and feel free at other times.
Xia Houbin came to the Queen's side very frequently recently, Queen Li asked him to come often, but he didn't know how to refuse, so he came to pay his respects every day.
After seeing Empress Li, the other princes quickly resigned, leaving Xia Houbing in the palace.
These few days Xia Houbin was with the queen, not just to accompany and chat, the queen asked him to follow Shang Lan to learn how to handle palace affairs.
For this, Xiahou Bin is very grateful. At this age, he should learn how to run the house, and it would be great to have the queen to guide him.
On the other hand, Xiahou Bing had something to do, so she didn't feel uncomfortable staying with the queen.
Xia Houbin stayed for the whole day, and was not allowed to leave until evening.
He walked towards his palace with the palace servants, and when he passed the imperial garden, he happened to meet Xiahou Xuanjing who had come back from the upper study.
Xia Houbin's eyes lit up instantly, and he walked over quickly, "Seventh brother!"
Xiahou Xuanjing stopped and called back, "Fifth brother."
Xia Houbin stopped in front of Xiahou Xuanjing. After being excited, he seemed a little at a loss. He asked dryly, "get out of class is over?"
Xiahou Xuanjing said "hmm", "Fifth brother is going to go back to rest?"
Xia Houbin nodded several times, watching Xiahou Xuanjing hesitate to speak.
Xiahou Xuanjing felt helpless, so he took the initiative to ask, "Fifth Brother, do you need my help?"
"Seventh brother, when are you going to leave the palace? Can you bring me with you?" Xia Houbin finally plucked up the courage to ask all at once, and then took a quick breath.
Xiahou Xuanjing looked at Xiahou Bing who lowered his head after speaking in one breath, and said, "Fifth brother, I can't leave the palace for now."
Xia Houbin raised her head in surprise, her eyes widened slightly, can't she go out of the palace? !
Xiahou Xuanjing said: "The empress has restrained her feet, and she cannot leave the palace during this time."
Although it was a false alarm.
But this also made Empress Li feel sorry for her.
Under the tense situation of Empress Li during this period, Xiahou Xuanjing has little chance to leave the palace again.
Although the chaos on the night of the Lantern Festival seemed unexpected, it was inevitable that people would not think too much about it.
Could it be that someone wants to take the opportunity to make trouble and get rid of some people?
To know the situation at that time, the seventh prince happened to be there, at the scene of the incident, if he hadn't evacuated in time, the guards of Yun Xiaoshizi were also there, and they left the chaotic place immediately, the consequences would be unimaginable.
And the jugglers were nowhere to be found that day.
This has to make people think more.
Queen Li has only one child left, if something goes wrong with him, wouldn't he go crazy?
Xiahou Bin let out a disappointment when he heard the words.
His hands stirred unconsciously.
Doesn't he have a chance to go out...
Xiahou Xuanjing saw this, thought for a while, and said: "Why don't you go and tell the empress why you want to leave the palace, as long as it is reasonable, the empress will not refuse."
Empress Mu is not unreasonable, he feels that if Brother Wu speaks in person, Empress Mu will not refuse.
Xia Houbin hesitated for a while, thinking of what he was going to say, he was a little embarrassed, saying these words with his seventh brother exhausted his courage, and when he said it to Empress Mu, Xiahou Bin suddenly became timid.
He couldn't speak.
Xiahou Xuanjing actually had no impression of him, the fifth elder brother who was timid since he was a child, and he didn't have a good impression, but he didn't have a bad feeling either.The reason why he noticed him was because Xiahou Xuanjing accidentally saw that he, the fifth elder brother, had feelings for Brother Yu's husband.
Although Xiahou Xuanjing was only twelve or thirteen years old, but he grew up in the palace, how could he not see Xiahou Bing's careful thinking?
At that time, Brother Yu had finally taken a fancy to someone and was willing to form a contract so that he would not die alone. Xiahou Xuanjing, like Queen Li, could not tolerate anyone's destruction.
So during that time Xiahou Xuanjing specially paid more attention to him.
lest he destroy it.
However, after getting in touch with him a lot, Xiahou Xuanjing gradually developed a good impression of this fifth elder brother. Although he couldn't see Xiahou Bing's sensitive and restrained temperament, he didn't have any royal prestige, and he walked shyly, but at least he had a heart. kind hearted.
Even if he grew up in the big dye vat of the imperial palace, even if he was bullied by Xia Houjue since he was a child, he can still maintain a pure and kind heart. Based on this alone, he is a little bit better than Xia Houjue.
Even if he has a good impression of Ye Junshu, the biggest thing he did was to express his thoughts to Li Yu, and he didn't even have the courage to express his love to Ye Junshu.
Xia Houxuanjing was more inclined that he was just bewitched for a while, and he had a good impression of Ye Junshu, but it was only limited.
If he really liked Ye Junshu, how could he watch Ye Junshu and Li Yu form a bond?
He was sad and confused, probably more because he was at a loss for his future.
It is really amazing that a majestic Royal Highness has lived to the extent of Xiahou Bin.
But also understandable.
Since childhood, Xiahou Bing was not favored, because of his temper, even if he was bullied, he just cried silently, didn't know how to complain, and kept silent.
Xia Houjue has been domineering since he was a child, and he has often taken the lead in suppressing him since he was a child.
It was also during those years when Li Yu was in the palace, he would not be able to see him if he bumped into it.
Xia Houbin followed Li Yu silently.
It's just that Li Yu doesn't like to talk, and has a cold temper. Xiahou Bin is also so introverted that he can't say a few words a day, so his feelings are not deep.
But within a few years, Marshal Li and his son were killed in battle, and Li Yu went out of the palace to observe filial piety in Li's mansion.He never lived in the palace again.It's just that you can enter and leave the palace at will.
Xia Houxuanjing felt that Xia Hou Bing's temper was very disadvantageous. If he formed a contract with the noble family of the Hou Mansion in the future, he might be eaten to pieces.
But if it refers to small families and small households, it would be too dismissive.
Xiahou Xuanjing felt that Xiahou Bing's character could be changed appropriately. At least, he could say what he wanted generously.If you don't say it, who knows?
Xiahou Xuanjing's words ended here, and he said goodbye: "Fifth brother, if there is nothing else, I will go back first." He still has a lot of homework to do, and he still has to greet the queen.
Xia Houbin nodded, and said in a small voice: "Seventh brother, go slowly."
After watching Xiahou Xuanjing leave, Xiahou Bing struggled silently for a while.
In the end, the idea of wanting to go out overcame the timidity in his heart, he moved slowly from sunset to dark and the palace lamps were lit, and then moved from the imperial garden to the front of the queen's palace.
Looking at the brightly lit and large-scale palace, the courage that Xiahoubin had accumulated for so long was immediately vented. Xiahoubin's feet unconsciously moved slightly on the ground, but he still couldn't muster up the courage to lift his feet.
It's already so late, why don't he come back tomorrow...
At this time, Empress Li's personal palace attendant, Shang Lan, came out of the room, walked up to Xiahou Bin, saluted, and then respectfully said, "Your Highness Fifth, Your Majesty the Empress invites you in."
When Xia Houbin heard it, he didn't have to worry about it now, he dared not disobey the queen's order, so he had to follow Shang Lan into the palace silently.
Empress Li had already changed into light clothes. After finishing his official duties, he rarely relaxed. He was leisurely looking at the new hairpin bracelet that was just delivered below.
Seeing Xiahou Bin coming in, without waiting for him to salute, he beckoned and said softly, "Come here."
Xiahou Bin walked over.
"Brother Fing, take a look, which ones do you like?"
Xia Houbin glanced at them, and said softly, "They are all beautiful." The Queen Mother asked him which ones he likes, how can he really pick and choose?Isn't this clearly asking for something from Empress Mu?
Queen Li glanced at him with a smile, and said, "Since they are all pretty, then take them back and wear them."
As soon as these words came out, Xia Houbin's expression changed instantly, and he said in panic: "Queen, I didn't mean that, I..."
Empress Li smiled and comforted her: "Empress Mu knows what you mean, but Empress Mu is too old to wear these hairpins, and it's useless for me to keep them."
"Empress Mu is not old at all..." It's just that Xia Houbin is clumsy and stutters when he says good things, so he can't speak better than Empress Li.
Empress Li asked someone to take the box, only to take it back with Xia Houbin when she left.
Empress Li saw Xiahou Fing's embarrassment, and asked, "Brother Fing, is there something wrong?"
It was only then that Xia Houbing remembered the purpose of this trip. He looked at Queen Li's gentle face, his heart was pounding with nervousness, and he tried his best to express his wishes.
In fact, Empress Li didn't hear Xiahou Bin's voice at all, she just moved her lips. If Queen Li didn't know his purpose, he wouldn't be able to guess what Xiahou Bin said.
When Xiahou Xuanjing came back, he had already mentioned it to Queen Li.
This was already Xiahou Bin's limit.
Empress Li was not embarrassed, but encouraged, "Do you want to leave the palace?"
Xiahou Bing's face flushed red, he nodded with difficulty, wringing his hands.
Queen Li's voice became more and more gentle, "Why do you want to leave the palace?"
Xiahou Bin observed Empress Li's expression and saw that he was not angry, so she calmed down a bit and became bolder, "I want to visit my savior..."
In Xia Houbin's heart, Wen Bihua was already his savior.Since leaving that night, Xia Houbin hadn't seen him again, and he didn't know how he was recovering from his injuries.
I have never seen it with my own eyes, but he is in the palace day and night.
This was the first time Xia Houbin had expressed his request. Even if it was not in compliance with the rules, Empress Li did not intend to object.
Empress Li didn't pay much attention to Xiahou Bing before, she only felt that he was too introverted and reticent, except for greetings and family banquets, she rarely met on other occasions.
Now that there is a lot of attention, Empress Li feels that Xia Houbin's temperament is too restrained, even those brothers from aristocratic families can't compare.
A dignified Royal Highness has no self-confidence at all, and always subconsciously bows his head when he sees people. This habit is not good.
Moreover, Xiahou Bing has reached the age to form a contract.
Empress Li has been silently selecting young people for marriage since years ago, even though Xiahou Bing no longer has any sense of existence, she is still a highness.
His concubine Mu is also very opinionated, the queen asked his opinion, but it was all up to the empress to decide.Queen Li gave up and chose by herself.
After all, as his first wife, this is his responsibility.
It's just that Xiahou Bing's temperament makes it really difficult to choose the right one.
Even though he had investigated all the young talents in the capital when choosing a husband for Li Yu in the past few years, he still couldn't find a suitable one.
In case Xiahou Bing picked a bad one and was bullied, he would probably endure it silently and would not go to the palace to ask the queen to make decisions.
If they met someone who was bold and dark-hearted, and Xiahou Bing was wasted to death, they might not be able to get the news in time.
Even if there are honest and honest young talents, but there are too many messes in the house, and the parents and seniors are not easy to get along with, they will not be considered.
It is not so easy to find someone with a good family background, a simple family with harmonious elders, and an honest and kind person.
Queen Li had a headache.
Later, the end of the year was approaching, and many things became busy. Empress Li simply put this matter aside first, and then got busy with New Year's matters.
The news of the Lantern Festival came to his ears. Empress Li heard that Xiahou Bing had been rescued by a young man, and specially gave him the best medicinal materials. At the same time, the young man's message reached him.
Hearing that this is Ye Junshu's friend, the so-called bird of a feather flocks together, in terms of character, he can still be trusted.
And the person hasn't settled the contract yet.
In the eyes of Empress Li, her family background is a bit inconspicuous, so it is naturally not as good as the Houmen family in the capital.But it's not bad, the Wen family is one of the noble families in Yongzhou City, with a deep heritage.
Wen Bihua is the second son of the head of the Wen family, so he doesn't need to inherit the Wen family in the future, so it is relatively not that complicated.
If Xiahoubin and the Wen family form a contract, the Wen family must provide for Xiahoufen, so that Xiahoufen will not have to be wronged.
Although the Wen family is a bit complicated, if Xiahou Bin forms a contract with him, the family will inevitably be separated from the main family, so it will have no effect on Xiahou Bin.
As for Guan Xia Hou Fing, there are already signs of spring heart sprouting.
Wen Bihua is a bit old, but in the eyes of Queen Li, this is not a problem.
The only shortcoming is that Wen Bihua is just a juren, and in Queen Li's opinion, this reputation is a bit low.
But it doesn't matter, there is still more than a year to see if this person is suitable for Xiahou Bing. I heard that he is very hardworking and is preparing to participate in the next scientific examination, so I will see where he can go.
If you can't even pass the Jinshi exam, then you are even less worthy of His Royal Highness.
Anyway, Xiahou Bin is not very old now, so he can afford to wait for a year or two, and we will see what happens then.
Queen Li's thoughts will naturally not be noticed by outsiders.
After Xiahou Bin came to him and summoned up the courage to say that he wanted to go out of the palace to visit his savior, Queen Li weighed it up and agreed.
But he said: "Brother Yu will enter the palace tomorrow, then you and Brother Yu can go out of the palace together." As far as he knew, that Wen Bihua was recuperating in Ye Mansion right now.
With Brother Yu around, Queen Li didn't worry about other issues.
Empress Li will naturally pay attention to Xia Houbing's state at all times, and will not let him go out of the palace so frequently to meet foreign men, so as not to get deeply rooted in love.
If he is not allowed to go out this time, I am afraid that he will be even more concerned. This is not what Queen Li would like to see.
"Yes!" Xiahou Bin was overjoyed, and said again and again: "Thank you Empress!"
Empress Li waved her hand, "Go down and get ready." Then he will ask someone to call for it.
"Yes!"
Xiahou Bin returned to her palace full of joy, and couldn't wait for tomorrow's arrival.
Ye Junshu, who was far away in Ye Mansion, didn't know that their home was about to welcome a distinguished guest.
After the Lantern Festival, Ye Junshu and Li Yu went on business respectively.
Ye Junshu has been in a busy period since the first day.
It can be said that every department is similar and busy.
However, Ye Junshu still took time to pay attention to the follow-up of the stampede.
Ye Junshu thought about it later, and felt that he still had an inexplicable intuition that things were not that simple.
Logically speaking, for a grand event like the Lantern Festival, performances that are prone to mistakes like juggling animals should be restricted.
The programs on the night of the Lantern Festival are basically activities such as guessing lantern riddles, antithetical couplets and putting off lanterns. Even if there are juggling performances, they are performed by people rather than huge animals with certain dangers.
Especially in the subsequent chaos, those animals were found and solved, but there was no trace of the people.
Ye Junshu listened to the descriptions of the children and other people present, but he couldn't find anyone with the corresponding characteristics, and he might have been disguised.
No matter how you look at it, it seems premeditated.
It's a pity that the Li family sent people to investigate, but they didn't find any clues.Everything was wiped clean.
Ye Junshu also tried his best to find out, but also found nothing.
It's not that Ye Junshu has persecution paranoia, he always feels that this matter is aimed at him.
If he offended someone, Ye Junshu only thought that people from the Ming family might do so.
Ye Junshu did not hesitate to speculate with the greatest malice.
I'm afraid this is a warning from the Ming family.If something happened to his younger brothers in the chaos, he would suffer the most, and such a profound lesson would probably make him suffer for the rest of his life.
It's just that the Ming family wasted the lives of so many people in order to retaliate against him.
A dozen lives were lost just like that.
Who is not innocent?
The actions of the Ming family were too vicious and vicious.
But no matter how resentful Ye Junshu was, there was nothing he could do about them at this time.
Things are done too cleanly.
Li Yu also felt that the matter was not simple, but he couldn't find evidence, so he had to silently strengthen the protection of the children.
All of this is speculation, but neither Ye Junshu nor Li Yu dare to be careless.
The court finally ended by stripping Jing Zhaoyin of his black hat, and the innocent casualties were also compensated by the court.
That's how it went.
Wen Bihua stayed at Ye's house, apart from having a lot of books to read, the rest of the time was rather boring.
Ye Junshu leaves early and returns late every day, so he doesn't have much time to chat with Ye Junshu.
The other children went to school, and those who went to the military camp went to the military camp, but in the end he was left alone.
But there is no way, he is not suitable for going out in this state, and needs to rest.
It's just that he was so bored that he didn't feel comfortable. He walked around the courtyard of the guest house countless times, and he even knew where there were ant nests.
When I was seriously thinking about some activities to entertain myself, I heard movement outside.
Wen Bihua immediately lifted his spirits, and went to greet him full of joy.
Then I saw an unexpected figure.
Little crying bag?
Wen Bihua's eyes lit up, but when he thought of his identity, his eyes suddenly darkened.
When they reached a certain distance, they bowed awkwardly, "I have seen His Highness Fifth."
Then with a naive smile, he called Li Yu brother-in-law.
When Xia Houbin saw Wen Bihua, his face burst into a smile, "Brother Wen!"
On the second day after he was injured, not only did the imperial physician personally come to see his injury, but the legendary emperor and empress actually gave him a reward.
Only then did he realize that the little weeping and fifth young master whom he was desperately protecting was actually His Highness!
Wen Bihua didn't know what it was like for a moment, but he couldn't tell what it was like, and the only person he confided to was so busy that he couldn't see anyone for a day.
Wen Bihua held back, holding back silently.
Now seeing Xiahou Bin again, that feeling rose again.
Xia Houbin immediately noticed Wen Bihua's hands, which were still wrapped in white cloth, but compared with what he saw last time, it disappeared a little, and it was not so scary.
Xia Houbin hurriedly took out the best anti-swelling and pain-relieving ointment he found, "Brother Wen, this is a painkiller. Do your hands and body still hurt? Apply this and it won't hurt, it's very effective."
"Thank you, Your Highness Fifth."
Wen Bihua secretly glanced at Xia Houbin, seeing his small face, he couldn't bear to refuse.
Seeing that Wen Bihua accepted, Xia Houbin narrowed his eyes with a smile.
Wen Bihua coughed, "Why is Your Highness free to leave the palace?"
Xia Houbin replied, "I want to come and see you, so the empress let me come."
"Oh..." Wen Bihua couldn't help showing a smile, maybe the Empress Dowager didn't reject His Highness the Fifth Prince's contact with him?
Xiahou Bin didn't know why, so she smiled foolishly.
"By the way, Your Highness didn't go back so soon, did he?"
"Just go back to the palace before the key is released." Xia Houbin said softly.
"I'll take you to play something fun, do you know the playground?" Wen Bihua cheekily offered things from Ye Mansion.
"I've heard of it." It is said that Master Ye invented it, but Xia Houbin had never seen it with his own eyes. Hearing Wen Bihua's description at this time aroused even more curiosity.
When he saw the real thing, Xiahou Bing even exclaimed, such a miraculous thing, how did you create it?
It's so fun to watch!
Then Wen Bihua encouraged: "Is it? It's very interesting, you should try it too?"
Xia Houbin was obviously moved, but still hesitated, "...This is not good...I'm already this old..."
"You're not old, don't be afraid, I've played it too, it's fun!"
"really?"
"Really, I won't lie to you!"
"Then...then I'll play for a while..."
"Okay, let's play this first!"
"Um……"
Li Yu: "..."
In fact, he has always been there, maybe the sense of existence is too weak and he has been forgotten?
Within two days, there was a big happy event in the palace.
Fourth Highness Xia Houjue's wedding banquet finally arrived.
As the elder brother of the royal family, the son of a noble concubine, and the nephew of the Prime Minister of Ming Dynasty, Xia Houjue's red make-up made everyone envious.
It seems that in order to overwhelm the grand occasion when Li Yu made the contract, Xia Houjue also found many rare treasures for the contract ceremony.
Moreover, the number of lifts was more than ten lifts more than that of Li Yu, which exceeded the highest regulation.
Although it was unreasonable, the royal family was overjoyed that no one would touch this bad luck.
What's more, this regulation is just a convention, which doesn't mean it can't be broken.
So everyone just muttered a few words in private, more envious.
It seems that Xia Houjue is far more favored than the rumors!
It looks like the royal family is willing to give so many deeds.
After all, Xia Houjue is the son of the noble concubine Ming who has been favored for many years. Even if his temper is too domineering and he acts impulsively and without thinking, he is still a favored highness.
Many aristocratic families deeply regretted it. They should try harder, maybe they could marry the royal family. It would not be a loss if such a happy event happened to them.
Deng Hongyuan was really proud of himself at this time.
Although His Royal Highness is a bit arrogant, but he is His Royal Highness, so it is understandable, and he formed a contract with His Royal Highness, not only tied to the Ming family, but also deepened the connection with the First Prince
Ever since he became the fiancé of the Fourth Highness, he has obviously been taken seriously.
This is his dream!
As for His Royal Highness, he is younger than Li Yu and good-looking. Compared with Ye Junshu, he is the biggest winner!
Therefore, Deng Hongyuan found Ye Junshu more pleasing to the eye, and he wrote the wedding invitation himself, so that he could see with his own eyes how powerful he could crush him.
Ye Junshu and Li Yu were both invited. Although their relationship was not close, they knew each other after all.
Ye Junshu and Deng Hongyuan are Jinshi on the same list, and Li Yu and His Royal Highness have known each other since childhood.
If you are not invited, you can still have a reason not to go, but since you are invited, it is natural to take such a trip.
But in the end, the air field was at odds, Ye Junshu and Li Yu felt uncomfortable staying there, and when someone left the stage, they also left.
After the lively wedding event, the eyes returned to the court hall.
Jing Zhaoyin's official position is vacant.
However, Baiguan is not concerned about who Jing Zhaoyin will take over.
The eyes of the court were on Li Changchuan.
It has been several months since Li Hongying returned to Beijing, and it is time to decide who will control the Mighty Army.At this time, although Li Changchuan still did not see any outsiders, the news that his legs were about to heal was flying into the ears of all parties like snowflakes, and it intensified.
Even though many people have always held a skeptical attitude, but at this moment, the original credulity has become half-baked.
Perhaps, where did the Li family find a divine healer to heal their legs.
However, even though he was mentally prepared, when he saw Li Changchuan walking towards the court, it was like a thunderclap on the ground, leaving others dumbfounded.
The leg has been disabled for so many years, but it can really be cured? !
The huge palace is even more cold and boring.
He sat for a while before the palace attendant came in.
"Your Highness Fifth, do you want to get up?"
Xia Houbin nodded slightly, then lifted the quilt and got out of bed.
He is unknown in the palace, due to his personality, he doesn't have a confidant who can talk, only the personal palace servant who grew up with him can speak a few words.
For him, the imperial palace is a huge cage, but he has no ability to break free from the cage, so he can only wake up without hope every day.
Xiahou Ping got out of bed in a daze, and the palace attendants chattered endlessly: "What kind of clothes is your Highness thinking about today? The queen empress sent a batch of spring clothes a while ago, and the sun is warming today. Why don't you wear the ice blue suit? It suits Your Highness." What a beautiful skin!"
His Highness Fifth has also reached the age of forming a contract, so it's time to dress up. He can no longer wear old-fashioned clothes like before. His Highness Fifth is at a very good age, so he should dress brighter.
Xia Houbin has no requirements for clothes, they can dress up however they like.
The palace attendant is very enthusiastic towards him now, but recently the emperor father and the queen mother expressed their concern because of the surprise on the night of the Lantern Festival Lantern Festival, and rewarded him several times.
The eunuchs and palace attendants in the palace respected him a lot when they saw that the wind was turning the rudder.
Look, no matter what he was wearing before, no one talked, but now he is so active and enthusiastic.
Xia Houbin felt rather dull in his heart.
The Empress is very concerned about His Highness the Fifth Highness today, and she may choose a husband for His Highness at some point.
The Fifth Highness went down to pay his respects, maybe his eyes lit up!
His Highness the Fifth Highness did not raise any objections, and the palace attendant sent someone to send a set of fine ice blue silk clothes, embroidered with elegant bamboo leaf patterns and snow-white piping, and wearing suet jade hairpins on his head, which complemented each other and set off Xia Hou. Ping's skin became fairer.
The palace attendant praised: "Your Highness is very beautiful."
Xia Houbin slightly pulled his lower lip.
To be honest, Xia Houbin has a good appearance, but she has a timid temper. She usually keeps her head down in public, and rarely has a sense of presence.
It is estimated that in the impression of many official wives, only His Highness the Fifth Highness is known, and they can't even remember his appearance.
The palace attendant chatted on the sidelines.
Xiahou Bin's thoughts were racing, and he flew outside the palace wall unconsciously.
I don't know how that young master Wen is doing now...
Xia Houbing recalled that when he was protected under his body, he was so frightened that he could only cry, but now thinking about it, he found that he suddenly felt very safe and at ease.
This was the first time he felt at ease.
Recalling that he told him that he would protect him and let him not be afraid...
They used to be so close...
Xiahou Bin blushed silently.
As for Ye Junshu, who once made him miss and thought he could get out of the quagmire, he had long since left him out of his mind. Xia Houbin only had Wen Bihua in his heart now.
Wen Bihua was the first father who gave him a sense of security...
"The Fourth Highness will form a contract in a few days, and then only the Fifth Highness, you will reach the age of the contract. The concubine's words are slight, and I cannot make decisions about your highness's marriage. Your Highness still needs to please the Queen Empress. Only in this way will I treat you I am more concerned about my family."
"Recently, you and the Seventh Prince are getting close, and your empress can see it. If the Seventh Prince says something nice to you..."
After hearing what the servant said, Xia Houbin felt even more repelled.
It seems that he and the seventh brother approached with ulterior motives.
But in fact, it was the seventh brother who took the initiative to approach him, and Xiahou Bing refused for some reason, so he followed the seventh brother many times.
He just...wanted to go out and have a look...
The empress is kind to him now, but it was because he was taken out of the palace by the seventh brother that he was frightened.Out of compensatory psychology...
But if possible, he still wants to go out of the palace to have a look.
I don't know how Master Wen's injury is recovering...
Accompanied by the palace servants, Xiahou Bin went to the queen's palace to pay her respects.
In addition to Xiahou Bing, there were several younger brothers who went to pay respects to the queen.
Xia Houjue's wedding is getting closer, and he is currently preparing for the contract.
Seeing that Xia Houjue didn't come today, Xiahou Fing breathed a sigh of relief.
The other imperial brothers greeted Xiahou Bing, and then stood aside and whispered to each other.
Xiahou Bing was not close to the other emperor's younger brothers, and she was left alone, feeling relaxed.
Empress Li is not a harsh person, and she would not ask the concubines and princes in the harem to greet him every day.
Basically, on the first and fifteenth day of the lunar new year, we come to say hello together. The concubines stagger the time, and feel free at other times.
Xia Houbin came to the Queen's side very frequently recently, Queen Li asked him to come often, but he didn't know how to refuse, so he came to pay his respects every day.
After seeing Empress Li, the other princes quickly resigned, leaving Xia Houbing in the palace.
These few days Xia Houbin was with the queen, not just to accompany and chat, the queen asked him to follow Shang Lan to learn how to handle palace affairs.
For this, Xiahou Bin is very grateful. At this age, he should learn how to run the house, and it would be great to have the queen to guide him.
On the other hand, Xiahou Bing had something to do, so she didn't feel uncomfortable staying with the queen.
Xia Houbin stayed for the whole day, and was not allowed to leave until evening.
He walked towards his palace with the palace servants, and when he passed the imperial garden, he happened to meet Xiahou Xuanjing who had come back from the upper study.
Xia Houbin's eyes lit up instantly, and he walked over quickly, "Seventh brother!"
Xiahou Xuanjing stopped and called back, "Fifth brother."
Xia Houbin stopped in front of Xiahou Xuanjing. After being excited, he seemed a little at a loss. He asked dryly, "get out of class is over?"
Xiahou Xuanjing said "hmm", "Fifth brother is going to go back to rest?"
Xia Houbin nodded several times, watching Xiahou Xuanjing hesitate to speak.
Xiahou Xuanjing felt helpless, so he took the initiative to ask, "Fifth Brother, do you need my help?"
"Seventh brother, when are you going to leave the palace? Can you bring me with you?" Xia Houbin finally plucked up the courage to ask all at once, and then took a quick breath.
Xiahou Xuanjing looked at Xiahou Bing who lowered his head after speaking in one breath, and said, "Fifth brother, I can't leave the palace for now."
Xia Houbin raised her head in surprise, her eyes widened slightly, can't she go out of the palace? !
Xiahou Xuanjing said: "The empress has restrained her feet, and she cannot leave the palace during this time."
Although it was a false alarm.
But this also made Empress Li feel sorry for her.
Under the tense situation of Empress Li during this period, Xiahou Xuanjing has little chance to leave the palace again.
Although the chaos on the night of the Lantern Festival seemed unexpected, it was inevitable that people would not think too much about it.
Could it be that someone wants to take the opportunity to make trouble and get rid of some people?
To know the situation at that time, the seventh prince happened to be there, at the scene of the incident, if he hadn't evacuated in time, the guards of Yun Xiaoshizi were also there, and they left the chaotic place immediately, the consequences would be unimaginable.
And the jugglers were nowhere to be found that day.
This has to make people think more.
Queen Li has only one child left, if something goes wrong with him, wouldn't he go crazy?
Xiahou Bin let out a disappointment when he heard the words.
His hands stirred unconsciously.
Doesn't he have a chance to go out...
Xiahou Xuanjing saw this, thought for a while, and said: "Why don't you go and tell the empress why you want to leave the palace, as long as it is reasonable, the empress will not refuse."
Empress Mu is not unreasonable, he feels that if Brother Wu speaks in person, Empress Mu will not refuse.
Xia Houbin hesitated for a while, thinking of what he was going to say, he was a little embarrassed, saying these words with his seventh brother exhausted his courage, and when he said it to Empress Mu, Xiahou Bin suddenly became timid.
He couldn't speak.
Xiahou Xuanjing actually had no impression of him, the fifth elder brother who was timid since he was a child, and he didn't have a good impression, but he didn't have a bad feeling either.The reason why he noticed him was because Xiahou Xuanjing accidentally saw that he, the fifth elder brother, had feelings for Brother Yu's husband.
Although Xiahou Xuanjing was only twelve or thirteen years old, but he grew up in the palace, how could he not see Xiahou Bing's careful thinking?
At that time, Brother Yu had finally taken a fancy to someone and was willing to form a contract so that he would not die alone. Xiahou Xuanjing, like Queen Li, could not tolerate anyone's destruction.
So during that time Xiahou Xuanjing specially paid more attention to him.
lest he destroy it.
However, after getting in touch with him a lot, Xiahou Xuanjing gradually developed a good impression of this fifth elder brother. Although he couldn't see Xiahou Bing's sensitive and restrained temperament, he didn't have any royal prestige, and he walked shyly, but at least he had a heart. kind hearted.
Even if he grew up in the big dye vat of the imperial palace, even if he was bullied by Xia Houjue since he was a child, he can still maintain a pure and kind heart. Based on this alone, he is a little bit better than Xia Houjue.
Even if he has a good impression of Ye Junshu, the biggest thing he did was to express his thoughts to Li Yu, and he didn't even have the courage to express his love to Ye Junshu.
Xia Houxuanjing was more inclined that he was just bewitched for a while, and he had a good impression of Ye Junshu, but it was only limited.
If he really liked Ye Junshu, how could he watch Ye Junshu and Li Yu form a bond?
He was sad and confused, probably more because he was at a loss for his future.
It is really amazing that a majestic Royal Highness has lived to the extent of Xiahou Bin.
But also understandable.
Since childhood, Xiahou Bing was not favored, because of his temper, even if he was bullied, he just cried silently, didn't know how to complain, and kept silent.
Xia Houjue has been domineering since he was a child, and he has often taken the lead in suppressing him since he was a child.
It was also during those years when Li Yu was in the palace, he would not be able to see him if he bumped into it.
Xia Houbin followed Li Yu silently.
It's just that Li Yu doesn't like to talk, and has a cold temper. Xiahou Bin is also so introverted that he can't say a few words a day, so his feelings are not deep.
But within a few years, Marshal Li and his son were killed in battle, and Li Yu went out of the palace to observe filial piety in Li's mansion.He never lived in the palace again.It's just that you can enter and leave the palace at will.
Xia Houxuanjing felt that Xia Hou Bing's temper was very disadvantageous. If he formed a contract with the noble family of the Hou Mansion in the future, he might be eaten to pieces.
But if it refers to small families and small households, it would be too dismissive.
Xiahou Xuanjing felt that Xiahou Bing's character could be changed appropriately. At least, he could say what he wanted generously.If you don't say it, who knows?
Xiahou Xuanjing's words ended here, and he said goodbye: "Fifth brother, if there is nothing else, I will go back first." He still has a lot of homework to do, and he still has to greet the queen.
Xia Houbin nodded, and said in a small voice: "Seventh brother, go slowly."
After watching Xiahou Xuanjing leave, Xiahou Bing struggled silently for a while.
In the end, the idea of wanting to go out overcame the timidity in his heart, he moved slowly from sunset to dark and the palace lamps were lit, and then moved from the imperial garden to the front of the queen's palace.
Looking at the brightly lit and large-scale palace, the courage that Xiahoubin had accumulated for so long was immediately vented. Xiahoubin's feet unconsciously moved slightly on the ground, but he still couldn't muster up the courage to lift his feet.
It's already so late, why don't he come back tomorrow...
At this time, Empress Li's personal palace attendant, Shang Lan, came out of the room, walked up to Xiahou Bin, saluted, and then respectfully said, "Your Highness Fifth, Your Majesty the Empress invites you in."
When Xia Houbin heard it, he didn't have to worry about it now, he dared not disobey the queen's order, so he had to follow Shang Lan into the palace silently.
Empress Li had already changed into light clothes. After finishing his official duties, he rarely relaxed. He was leisurely looking at the new hairpin bracelet that was just delivered below.
Seeing Xiahou Bin coming in, without waiting for him to salute, he beckoned and said softly, "Come here."
Xiahou Bin walked over.
"Brother Fing, take a look, which ones do you like?"
Xia Houbin glanced at them, and said softly, "They are all beautiful." The Queen Mother asked him which ones he likes, how can he really pick and choose?Isn't this clearly asking for something from Empress Mu?
Queen Li glanced at him with a smile, and said, "Since they are all pretty, then take them back and wear them."
As soon as these words came out, Xia Houbin's expression changed instantly, and he said in panic: "Queen, I didn't mean that, I..."
Empress Li smiled and comforted her: "Empress Mu knows what you mean, but Empress Mu is too old to wear these hairpins, and it's useless for me to keep them."
"Empress Mu is not old at all..." It's just that Xia Houbin is clumsy and stutters when he says good things, so he can't speak better than Empress Li.
Empress Li asked someone to take the box, only to take it back with Xia Houbin when she left.
Empress Li saw Xiahou Fing's embarrassment, and asked, "Brother Fing, is there something wrong?"
It was only then that Xia Houbing remembered the purpose of this trip. He looked at Queen Li's gentle face, his heart was pounding with nervousness, and he tried his best to express his wishes.
In fact, Empress Li didn't hear Xiahou Bin's voice at all, she just moved her lips. If Queen Li didn't know his purpose, he wouldn't be able to guess what Xiahou Bin said.
When Xiahou Xuanjing came back, he had already mentioned it to Queen Li.
This was already Xiahou Bin's limit.
Empress Li was not embarrassed, but encouraged, "Do you want to leave the palace?"
Xiahou Bing's face flushed red, he nodded with difficulty, wringing his hands.
Queen Li's voice became more and more gentle, "Why do you want to leave the palace?"
Xiahou Bin observed Empress Li's expression and saw that he was not angry, so she calmed down a bit and became bolder, "I want to visit my savior..."
In Xia Houbin's heart, Wen Bihua was already his savior.Since leaving that night, Xia Houbin hadn't seen him again, and he didn't know how he was recovering from his injuries.
I have never seen it with my own eyes, but he is in the palace day and night.
This was the first time Xia Houbin had expressed his request. Even if it was not in compliance with the rules, Empress Li did not intend to object.
Empress Li didn't pay much attention to Xiahou Bing before, she only felt that he was too introverted and reticent, except for greetings and family banquets, she rarely met on other occasions.
Now that there is a lot of attention, Empress Li feels that Xia Houbin's temperament is too restrained, even those brothers from aristocratic families can't compare.
A dignified Royal Highness has no self-confidence at all, and always subconsciously bows his head when he sees people. This habit is not good.
Moreover, Xiahou Bing has reached the age to form a contract.
Empress Li has been silently selecting young people for marriage since years ago, even though Xiahou Bing no longer has any sense of existence, she is still a highness.
His concubine Mu is also very opinionated, the queen asked his opinion, but it was all up to the empress to decide.Queen Li gave up and chose by herself.
After all, as his first wife, this is his responsibility.
It's just that Xiahou Bing's temperament makes it really difficult to choose the right one.
Even though he had investigated all the young talents in the capital when choosing a husband for Li Yu in the past few years, he still couldn't find a suitable one.
In case Xiahou Bing picked a bad one and was bullied, he would probably endure it silently and would not go to the palace to ask the queen to make decisions.
If they met someone who was bold and dark-hearted, and Xiahou Bing was wasted to death, they might not be able to get the news in time.
Even if there are honest and honest young talents, but there are too many messes in the house, and the parents and seniors are not easy to get along with, they will not be considered.
It is not so easy to find someone with a good family background, a simple family with harmonious elders, and an honest and kind person.
Queen Li had a headache.
Later, the end of the year was approaching, and many things became busy. Empress Li simply put this matter aside first, and then got busy with New Year's matters.
The news of the Lantern Festival came to his ears. Empress Li heard that Xiahou Bing had been rescued by a young man, and specially gave him the best medicinal materials. At the same time, the young man's message reached him.
Hearing that this is Ye Junshu's friend, the so-called bird of a feather flocks together, in terms of character, he can still be trusted.
And the person hasn't settled the contract yet.
In the eyes of Empress Li, her family background is a bit inconspicuous, so it is naturally not as good as the Houmen family in the capital.But it's not bad, the Wen family is one of the noble families in Yongzhou City, with a deep heritage.
Wen Bihua is the second son of the head of the Wen family, so he doesn't need to inherit the Wen family in the future, so it is relatively not that complicated.
If Xiahoubin and the Wen family form a contract, the Wen family must provide for Xiahoufen, so that Xiahoufen will not have to be wronged.
Although the Wen family is a bit complicated, if Xiahou Bin forms a contract with him, the family will inevitably be separated from the main family, so it will have no effect on Xiahou Bin.
As for Guan Xia Hou Fing, there are already signs of spring heart sprouting.
Wen Bihua is a bit old, but in the eyes of Queen Li, this is not a problem.
The only shortcoming is that Wen Bihua is just a juren, and in Queen Li's opinion, this reputation is a bit low.
But it doesn't matter, there is still more than a year to see if this person is suitable for Xiahou Bing. I heard that he is very hardworking and is preparing to participate in the next scientific examination, so I will see where he can go.
If you can't even pass the Jinshi exam, then you are even less worthy of His Royal Highness.
Anyway, Xiahou Bin is not very old now, so he can afford to wait for a year or two, and we will see what happens then.
Queen Li's thoughts will naturally not be noticed by outsiders.
After Xiahou Bin came to him and summoned up the courage to say that he wanted to go out of the palace to visit his savior, Queen Li weighed it up and agreed.
But he said: "Brother Yu will enter the palace tomorrow, then you and Brother Yu can go out of the palace together." As far as he knew, that Wen Bihua was recuperating in Ye Mansion right now.
With Brother Yu around, Queen Li didn't worry about other issues.
Empress Li will naturally pay attention to Xia Houbing's state at all times, and will not let him go out of the palace so frequently to meet foreign men, so as not to get deeply rooted in love.
If he is not allowed to go out this time, I am afraid that he will be even more concerned. This is not what Queen Li would like to see.
"Yes!" Xiahou Bin was overjoyed, and said again and again: "Thank you Empress!"
Empress Li waved her hand, "Go down and get ready." Then he will ask someone to call for it.
"Yes!"
Xiahou Bin returned to her palace full of joy, and couldn't wait for tomorrow's arrival.
Ye Junshu, who was far away in Ye Mansion, didn't know that their home was about to welcome a distinguished guest.
After the Lantern Festival, Ye Junshu and Li Yu went on business respectively.
Ye Junshu has been in a busy period since the first day.
It can be said that every department is similar and busy.
However, Ye Junshu still took time to pay attention to the follow-up of the stampede.
Ye Junshu thought about it later, and felt that he still had an inexplicable intuition that things were not that simple.
Logically speaking, for a grand event like the Lantern Festival, performances that are prone to mistakes like juggling animals should be restricted.
The programs on the night of the Lantern Festival are basically activities such as guessing lantern riddles, antithetical couplets and putting off lanterns. Even if there are juggling performances, they are performed by people rather than huge animals with certain dangers.
Especially in the subsequent chaos, those animals were found and solved, but there was no trace of the people.
Ye Junshu listened to the descriptions of the children and other people present, but he couldn't find anyone with the corresponding characteristics, and he might have been disguised.
No matter how you look at it, it seems premeditated.
It's a pity that the Li family sent people to investigate, but they didn't find any clues.Everything was wiped clean.
Ye Junshu also tried his best to find out, but also found nothing.
It's not that Ye Junshu has persecution paranoia, he always feels that this matter is aimed at him.
If he offended someone, Ye Junshu only thought that people from the Ming family might do so.
Ye Junshu did not hesitate to speculate with the greatest malice.
I'm afraid this is a warning from the Ming family.If something happened to his younger brothers in the chaos, he would suffer the most, and such a profound lesson would probably make him suffer for the rest of his life.
It's just that the Ming family wasted the lives of so many people in order to retaliate against him.
A dozen lives were lost just like that.
Who is not innocent?
The actions of the Ming family were too vicious and vicious.
But no matter how resentful Ye Junshu was, there was nothing he could do about them at this time.
Things are done too cleanly.
Li Yu also felt that the matter was not simple, but he couldn't find evidence, so he had to silently strengthen the protection of the children.
All of this is speculation, but neither Ye Junshu nor Li Yu dare to be careless.
The court finally ended by stripping Jing Zhaoyin of his black hat, and the innocent casualties were also compensated by the court.
That's how it went.
Wen Bihua stayed at Ye's house, apart from having a lot of books to read, the rest of the time was rather boring.
Ye Junshu leaves early and returns late every day, so he doesn't have much time to chat with Ye Junshu.
The other children went to school, and those who went to the military camp went to the military camp, but in the end he was left alone.
But there is no way, he is not suitable for going out in this state, and needs to rest.
It's just that he was so bored that he didn't feel comfortable. He walked around the courtyard of the guest house countless times, and he even knew where there were ant nests.
When I was seriously thinking about some activities to entertain myself, I heard movement outside.
Wen Bihua immediately lifted his spirits, and went to greet him full of joy.
Then I saw an unexpected figure.
Little crying bag?
Wen Bihua's eyes lit up, but when he thought of his identity, his eyes suddenly darkened.
When they reached a certain distance, they bowed awkwardly, "I have seen His Highness Fifth."
Then with a naive smile, he called Li Yu brother-in-law.
When Xia Houbin saw Wen Bihua, his face burst into a smile, "Brother Wen!"
On the second day after he was injured, not only did the imperial physician personally come to see his injury, but the legendary emperor and empress actually gave him a reward.
Only then did he realize that the little weeping and fifth young master whom he was desperately protecting was actually His Highness!
Wen Bihua didn't know what it was like for a moment, but he couldn't tell what it was like, and the only person he confided to was so busy that he couldn't see anyone for a day.
Wen Bihua held back, holding back silently.
Now seeing Xiahou Bin again, that feeling rose again.
Xia Houbin immediately noticed Wen Bihua's hands, which were still wrapped in white cloth, but compared with what he saw last time, it disappeared a little, and it was not so scary.
Xia Houbin hurriedly took out the best anti-swelling and pain-relieving ointment he found, "Brother Wen, this is a painkiller. Do your hands and body still hurt? Apply this and it won't hurt, it's very effective."
"Thank you, Your Highness Fifth."
Wen Bihua secretly glanced at Xia Houbin, seeing his small face, he couldn't bear to refuse.
Seeing that Wen Bihua accepted, Xia Houbin narrowed his eyes with a smile.
Wen Bihua coughed, "Why is Your Highness free to leave the palace?"
Xia Houbin replied, "I want to come and see you, so the empress let me come."
"Oh..." Wen Bihua couldn't help showing a smile, maybe the Empress Dowager didn't reject His Highness the Fifth Prince's contact with him?
Xiahou Bin didn't know why, so she smiled foolishly.
"By the way, Your Highness didn't go back so soon, did he?"
"Just go back to the palace before the key is released." Xia Houbin said softly.
"I'll take you to play something fun, do you know the playground?" Wen Bihua cheekily offered things from Ye Mansion.
"I've heard of it." It is said that Master Ye invented it, but Xia Houbin had never seen it with his own eyes. Hearing Wen Bihua's description at this time aroused even more curiosity.
When he saw the real thing, Xiahou Bing even exclaimed, such a miraculous thing, how did you create it?
It's so fun to watch!
Then Wen Bihua encouraged: "Is it? It's very interesting, you should try it too?"
Xia Houbin was obviously moved, but still hesitated, "...This is not good...I'm already this old..."
"You're not old, don't be afraid, I've played it too, it's fun!"
"really?"
"Really, I won't lie to you!"
"Then...then I'll play for a while..."
"Okay, let's play this first!"
"Um……"
Li Yu: "..."
In fact, he has always been there, maybe the sense of existence is too weak and he has been forgotten?
Within two days, there was a big happy event in the palace.
Fourth Highness Xia Houjue's wedding banquet finally arrived.
As the elder brother of the royal family, the son of a noble concubine, and the nephew of the Prime Minister of Ming Dynasty, Xia Houjue's red make-up made everyone envious.
It seems that in order to overwhelm the grand occasion when Li Yu made the contract, Xia Houjue also found many rare treasures for the contract ceremony.
Moreover, the number of lifts was more than ten lifts more than that of Li Yu, which exceeded the highest regulation.
Although it was unreasonable, the royal family was overjoyed that no one would touch this bad luck.
What's more, this regulation is just a convention, which doesn't mean it can't be broken.
So everyone just muttered a few words in private, more envious.
It seems that Xia Houjue is far more favored than the rumors!
It looks like the royal family is willing to give so many deeds.
After all, Xia Houjue is the son of the noble concubine Ming who has been favored for many years. Even if his temper is too domineering and he acts impulsively and without thinking, he is still a favored highness.
Many aristocratic families deeply regretted it. They should try harder, maybe they could marry the royal family. It would not be a loss if such a happy event happened to them.
Deng Hongyuan was really proud of himself at this time.
Although His Royal Highness is a bit arrogant, but he is His Royal Highness, so it is understandable, and he formed a contract with His Royal Highness, not only tied to the Ming family, but also deepened the connection with the First Prince
Ever since he became the fiancé of the Fourth Highness, he has obviously been taken seriously.
This is his dream!
As for His Royal Highness, he is younger than Li Yu and good-looking. Compared with Ye Junshu, he is the biggest winner!
Therefore, Deng Hongyuan found Ye Junshu more pleasing to the eye, and he wrote the wedding invitation himself, so that he could see with his own eyes how powerful he could crush him.
Ye Junshu and Li Yu were both invited. Although their relationship was not close, they knew each other after all.
Ye Junshu and Deng Hongyuan are Jinshi on the same list, and Li Yu and His Royal Highness have known each other since childhood.
If you are not invited, you can still have a reason not to go, but since you are invited, it is natural to take such a trip.
But in the end, the air field was at odds, Ye Junshu and Li Yu felt uncomfortable staying there, and when someone left the stage, they also left.
After the lively wedding event, the eyes returned to the court hall.
Jing Zhaoyin's official position is vacant.
However, Baiguan is not concerned about who Jing Zhaoyin will take over.
The eyes of the court were on Li Changchuan.
It has been several months since Li Hongying returned to Beijing, and it is time to decide who will control the Mighty Army.At this time, although Li Changchuan still did not see any outsiders, the news that his legs were about to heal was flying into the ears of all parties like snowflakes, and it intensified.
Even though many people have always held a skeptical attitude, but at this moment, the original credulity has become half-baked.
Perhaps, where did the Li family find a divine healer to heal their legs.
However, even though he was mentally prepared, when he saw Li Changchuan walking towards the court, it was like a thunderclap on the ground, leaving others dumbfounded.
The leg has been disabled for so many years, but it can really be cured? !
