Tang Xuan

Chapter 38

It was night, Lang Huai changed into ordinary clothes, put on a cloak and left the mansion through the side door, walked around to the north door of Weiyang Residence, and waited quietly.

There was still some time before the appointed time, the guard at the north door saw her and wanted to welcome her in, but Lang Huai waved his hand and stood by the corridor.

There are too many things these days, which really makes her a little tired.After returning from winter hunting, the Ming emperor will not go to court if there is no major matter.Originally, it was normal for the prince to supervise the country, but the Taoist decree was issued, and Li Qian also entered the court to govern.

The luxury of the Daming Palace surpassed all previous dynasties.Concubine Liang is the only one who favors the harem alone, and even brought her clan to ascend to heaven alone.Li Xun is completely incapable of doing things right now, he is almost trapped in the East Palace, the government orders are issued, and he can hardly get out of the palace, he is really useless.

However, for the present plan, it is the only choice for Li Xun to be wise and protect himself.Once he really offended Emperor Ming and dismissed him as the crown prince, then everything would be over.Fortunately, a few days ago, the Crown Princess gave birth to twins, dragon and phoenix, and Emperor Ming liked it very much.A prince with many heirs is still liked by Emperor Ming.

She was thinking wildly, accidentally being slapped on the back by someone, and was about to make a move, when she smelled the scent of medicine at the tip of her nose, and then she relaxed. "Si," turned around, and sure enough, it was her. It was cold in the night, but she was honestly wearing a cloak, with only her head showing, "Let's go?"

Ming Da nodded, and said to Li'er: "You go back, it's so late, Daddy probably won't come over."

Li'er hesitated and said, "This..."

"What are you afraid of? If I go out with Brother Huai, she will protect me." Mingda turned to look at Lang Huai, and said with a smile, "Isn't it?"

Lang Huai shook his head, but still stretched out his arm, let her help him down the steps, and went to the Seventh Prince's Mansion.

There was nothing to say all the way, and when they arrived at the side door, Lang Huai signaled Mingda to wait a moment, stepped forward and said, "Commander Gu, thank you very much."

Gu Yang waved his hand: "Duwei speaks seriously. It's getting late, so please stop, don't delay."

Lang Huai was also polite, turned around to support Mingda, entered through the side door, led by Gu Yang, and went all the way to Yangxi Zhai.Because of Li Yu's indifferent temper, most of the servants in the palace used to be casual, but now they are all guards of the Royal Army.Lang Huai and Ming Da couldn't help sighing, and when they were outside Yangxi Zhai, Lang Huai said to Gu Yang: "Thank you, Commander, if there is an assignment in the future, Huai will definitely not refuse."

"There is no need to say these things. You two, please come in. If there is anything, you can find me there." Gu Yang pointed to the corridor outside Yangxizhai, and waved his hand to leave.

Pushing open the door and entering, the inner room is lit with lights.Lang Huai was afraid that Mingda would fall, so he became more careful. When he entered the room, Li Yu's voice came: "Is it Mingda, Ahuai?" It's not bad.He laughed and said: "The General Gu told me earlier that the two of you are coming today, I still don't believe it."

"Why don't you believe it? Could it be that I still have someone come to coax you?" Lang Huai took off his cloak with a smile. Inside was a moon-white narrow-sleeved thin shirt, with sapphire inlaid with gold on the waist, and a blue purse hanging down.

Turning to look at Mingda, today he is dressed up very brightly, with fiery red half arms and slender waist, if he stands quietly, he really looks like a fair lady.

"My servants have been dispatched for most of the time now, and I don't want to disturb them at night. As long as there is enough wine, there are not many dishes. Let's drink?" Li Yu pulled Mingda to sit beside him, and said, "It's just that you don't You must be greedy for drinking, what kind of weather is it, you are wearing such thin clothes, and you will get sick from the cold again... Brother will not be able to take care of you in the future."

All three sighed, and Lang Huai also sat down silently, disliking the small wine glass, got up and went to find a tea bucket.Several people drank a few cups together, and the atmosphere gradually became more lively.

Li Yu slapped his forehead, jumped up from the spring stool, and said, "Your third younger brother lent me a book post a while ago. I never thought about it, but I forgot about it." After rummaging in the study for a while, he brought over a stack and said with a smile, "That kid is really savvy, much better than your big brother. Give him all these, let him come in order, it will definitely benefit." While talking, Li Yu picked up the post with a fur skin, put it on the low table beside him, and said, "Remember, don't forget."

"It's hard for you to remember." Lang Huai changed Ming Da's tea and advised her: "You can't drink too much."

"Why should I listen to you!" Mingda was not willing to agree, and grabbed it with his hands, saying: "Seventh brother is leaving, why can't I, a younger sister, not send him off properly?"

"You." Li Yu smiled and watched the two of them quarreling, and joked, "It's really different after we're engaged." He smiled playfully, but he didn't realize that the two of them looked a little unnatural after saying this. He said to himself: "I don't know who is following Mingda's temperament. Fortunately, the father still understands and chose you for her. Otherwise, I would not be at ease."

After he finished speaking, he couldn't help thinking of Qin Shu, and sighed: "This matter is too strange, but I don't know that Qin Shu is a girl, so she can't hide."

Lang Huai couldn't bear to hide it, and said in a low voice: "Don't worry, Seventh Brother, Miss Qinshu is safe now. It's just that she will hide her name in the future and leave her body. If you keep the green hills, you won't be afraid of running out of firewood."

Li Yu raised his head and couldn't help holding Lang Huai's arm with astonishing strength: "This is true!"

Lang Huai patted Li Yu's shoulder with his right hand: "Seventh brother, when did I lie to you? I just ask you, do you know who Qinshu is?"

"Why don't you know?" Li Yu smiled lightly and said, "She can't help herself, but I can't help myself. But it's hard to get over the water, but it's all over."

"I'm afraid that the fourth brother left mountains of swords and seas of fire in Boshan, waiting for me, the downcast king of the county, to dance." After this, Li Yu came to a realization, and he said, "I know you came here for What, it's just that I'm afraid that I will do something stupid again."

Seeing that he understood, Lang Huai nodded, glanced at Mingda and said: "If it is as expected, Commander Gu will escape from the Imperial Forest Army and go with you as your guard. But I don't know if Brother Seven has a candidate for Prime Minister?"

Li Yujiu drank until the glass was dry, but he was very sober in his words: "President Wang? Ah Huai, you have been so smart all your life, why are you so confused? If I want to bring someone capable, do you think it will be right? I If you bring someone confused, wouldn’t you be asking for your own death?”

A word awakened the dreamer, Lang Huai nodded and said, "It's better not to take it!"

Mingda was so bored by these words, he could only drink slowly, and soon became a little drunk, leaning his head on Li Yu's left shoulder, and said in a low voice, "Brother Seven, chestnut cake!"

There used to be a pastry chef in the palace, and chestnut cake was the best. Every time Mingda came, he had to eat half of the plate and take a plate away.Li Yu felt sore when he heard this, and said, "Ah Huai, those people in my house are innocent. If there is a chance in the future, please say something nice. The master's surname is Chen. If you really meet him, you will let your house go." Here, get some delicious pastries for Mingda."

As he talked, he wept, and the alcohol was getting stronger, and he was staggering.Lang Huai replied: "Your Majesty didn't embarrass those people, they were all assigned to various mansions in Chang'an. It seems that a man surnamed Chen came to our mansion. I was too busy at the time, but I didn't bother to meet him." She got up and walked over. He whispered, "Si, are you sleepy?"

Ming Da let go of Li Yu, leaned his head on Lang Huai's waist, hummed twice, but was very drunk.

Afraid that she would fall, Lang Huai bent down and picked up the girl.There was a soft couch in the hall, Lang Huai walked over and put it down lightly, took the brocade quilt and covered her, but was held back.

"Brother Huai..."

"Well, I'm here. Sleep peacefully, I'll be back tomorrow." Lang Huai patted her hand, not daring to hold it any longer, and pulled it out.

Mingda's drunken eyes were hazy, he turned around and fell asleep.Lang Huai turned around, but saw Li Yu looking at him jokingly with a wine glass: "I never knew that Captain Lang was so gentle?"

Lang Huai ignored him, sipped his spirits and said, "Seventh Brother, Si's asleep, you have something to say, you can say it quickly."

Li Yu said seriously: "I have only heard a little about the coming of the Tibetan mission. I don't understand these things, and I can't help you, but I still advise you to be more cautious."

"You must know that you are young after all. If you really do not handle it properly, you will inevitably have a reputation of being young and frivolous. It is because of the relationship between father and emperor that he never blamed you. But if you lose your Sacred Heart, it will be worse."

"Seventh brother said yes, I wrote it down." Lang Huai did not expect that Li Yu could see so far, but he grew up in Chang'an. Unreasonable?

"Fourth brother is the most smiling character." Li Yu drank half a glass again, with a drunken look, but his eyes were clear: "Big brother, if he talks about conspiracy and tricks, he is definitely not an opponent. But as long as big brother doesn't make mistakes, even cowardly , father is also on the side of big brother."

"I think the same as you. As long as His Highness doesn't make mistakes, no matter what Duke Huai is, he's just a vassal king." Lang Huai poured wine for him, and said in a low voice, "I'm worried about the one inside. Your Majesty is also an infatuated kind." , I’m afraid I’ve been bewitched and don’t know it.”

"It's useless." Li Yu was also worried, and said: "The only senior supervisor by my father's side is an old man who follows him. But the senior supervisor has a low position, so it is difficult to talk about it."

Lang Huai couldn't help but drank a cup, and sighed: "The chaos is born! Yesterday I heard that Fang Xiang was seriously ill, and he relied on the old ginseng bestowed by the former emperor to continue his life. Dad also said that it is impossible to persuade now, and you have to endure it to make things happen. !"

"If I had known today, I would have told my father to stay in Anxi and not come back! I would not have to suffer from such embarrassment!" Before he knew it, Lang Huai had also drunk seven or eight cents, and his words became agitated in a drunken state.

The two drank and chatted until they drank all the wine. Lang Huai felt dizzy for a while, and lay down on the table, not caring about anything, and passed out.

When he woke up again, Lang Huai first felt a stabbing pain in the back of his neck, slowly opened his eyes, recalled what happened last night, and hurriedly looked up - Li Yu was lying on the ground with an empty wine jug in his arms, still lying on the ground. Did not wake up.

When I looked outside, there was only a slight leak of light.Lang Huai stood up and stretched, kicked Li Yu to wake him up, and said, "Seventh brother, I will take Mingda and go back, and I will carry it out for you after the imperial decree comes down."

Li Yu stood up, squatted the jug on the table, shook his hands, and went to sleep in the inner room.Lang Huai knew from looking at him that he was not sober yet.Taking the hanging cloak, she walked to the side of the soft couch, lightly shook Mingda awake: "Si, it's getting late, we have to go back."

After calling out a few times, Mingda slowly opened his eyes. It was really a beauty just waking up, and Lang Huai couldn't help but feel hot because of her beauty, so he hurriedly turned his face away.

"Brother Huai, what time is it?" Mingda went to bed early and drank less, at this moment he only felt a slight headache, not like Li Yu.

"It's almost dawn, let's go back as soon as there is no one on the street at this time, what do you think?" Lang Huai explained in a low voice, for fear of shocking the lovely person in front of him.

"Okay." Mingda sat up, suddenly remembered that this was in front of Lang Huai, and felt a little shy.

Putting on the cloak, Mingda still wanted to say goodbye to Li Yu, Lang Huai said with a smile: "He's not sober yet, it's useless to go, it's better to leave it alone."

The two went to look for Gu Yang, and left quietly through the side door.Taking advantage of the dark weather, Lang Huai sent her back to Weiyang Residence before returning to Duke Mu's Mansion.

After only a short rest, Lang Huai changed his clothes and sat down in the living room to eat.Last night's hangover made her spirit unavoidable, but she had to hang out with Tubo for a day, but today she had to meet for a while no matter what.
