Tang Xuan

Chapter 52

In the past, the Shu Palace occupied a vast area, and all the pavilions, terraces and pavilions were extremely luxurious.Ever since Li Jinfei became a commoner, he was confinement in a small courtyard on the west side of the palace. The guards of the Imperial Forest Army took turns guarding him day and night, and no one was allowed to come in or out.The rest of the place gradually fell into disrepair.

Du Zhun just switched defenses.Such a leisurely job is really rare for Jin Wuwei. The team of 200 people was arranged into four shifts by him, and they rotated back and forth, counting it as recuperation.However, the uninvited guest who came that night made him feel scared after a long time.

The leader of the Jinwu Guard came in person, and Du Zhun was glad that he didn't drink or gamble tonight, so he tremblingly went to see Lang Huai.The most popular riding captain in Chang'an City today, he was dressed neatly and had a four-foot-long sword hanging from his waist, but he was not Chunjun.She brought only one entourage with something in her hand.It is heard that Zongzheng Temple and the Ministry of Rites have selected a few good days for her and the girl's marriage to be presented to Emperor Ming. When she actually gets married, she will be the most favored "son-in-law" in the dynasty.

"The last general, Du Zhun, has met the captain." No matter how much his heart turned, Du Zhun still saluted respectfully, and then asked with doubts: "The captain is here at this time, is there something wrong?"

"There's no need to be too polite." Lang Huai waved his hands, sighed and said, "I'm entrusted by others, and it's a matter of loyalty. I have something to ask General Du."

Welcoming Lang and Huai into the yard, Du Zhun said anxiously: "This statement made the last general panic. The last general is a young general, but how can I help you? The captain quickly said, don't break the small one."

"It's not for me to help," Lang Huai said with a smile: "It's really my son who asked, so I have to trouble the general." She pointed to the things in Tao Jun's hand, and said: "Tomorrow is Liu Ye's birthday, Sizi's illness has not recovered quickly, but he wants me to bring Liuye a birthday present. Please also ask Du to cut the net and let me bring a message to Liuye for Sizi."

"This..." Du Zhun hesitated, the Emperor Ming had a decree, and he was not allowed to come and go without a decree.But Ming Da is the jewel in the palm of Emperor Ming, and it coincides with Li Jin's birthday, not to mention Lang Huai is his immediate boss, so it's really embarrassing.

"Don't be afraid, General Du. Sizi is just worried about Liu Ye's depression. After all, he is His Majesty's son. As long as he sincerely repents, why not worry about getting out?" Lang Huai looked at the sky and said, "Don't worry , it's only a quarter of an hour."

When Lang Huai said this, Du Zhun had no choice but to grit his teeth and said, "What is the captain talking about, just go in. The sixth master lives in the east wing, and he probably hasn't slept yet. The last general will take you here." go in!"

Lang Huai nodded and said, "So, thank you General Du for his benevolence."

Li Jin abolished his title, but his daily expenses for food and clothing were still not deducted.When Lang Huai opened the door and entered, he was humming a ditty, drinking fine wine, holding a concubine in his arms, enjoying himself happily.

"Sixth Master's place is a good place." Seeing this, Lang Huai was not annoyed at all, and he didn't treat himself as an outsider, so he found a chair and sat down.

Li Jin narrowed his eyes and said, "Why are you here?" He could have expected anyone to come, but Lang Huai made him unable to figure it out.

Tao Jun came in and put down his things, saluted, then turned and went out, standing outside the door with Du Zhun.After a while, the concubine Ji also opened the door and closed the door again.

"Why did I come here? Hehe, Sizi knows that your birthday is tomorrow, but she was ill last month and has not recovered yet. She cannot leave the house, so she entrusted me to give you a birthday present." Lang Huai said He picked up the burden, put it on the table, and said: "Time is tight, I know Liu Ye is bold, so I won't talk nonsense with you."

"Not long after you were abolished, Seventh Brother was exiled from Chang'an and sealed up in Boshan." Lang Huai sat down and said lightly, "I'm afraid you don't know that Concubine Xiao is depressed and has been ill for two days. month, the imperial physicians in the palace said that they might not be able to survive this summer."

Li Jin's face turned pale, and he crushed the wine glass with his iron hands. "Mother Concubine!" He gritted his teeth and read a few words, then turned his head and glared at Lang Huai fiercely, and said, "What is your purpose in coming here today? Don't beat around the bush, just say it straight!"

"Sixth Master is refreshing, Lang Huai won't talk nonsense." Lang Huai secretly praised, and said in a convincing manner: "After this matter, you should know that if this one succeeds," she made four gestures with her hand and continued: " Not to mention His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and Seventh Brother, if you have such a rift with him, you will definitely not live long."

"Your Majesty Qiangu Renjun, you will definitely go out in the future." Lang Huai said with a smile: "This one will also talk cleverly and win you over again. What I want you to remember is to pretend to be a snake and keep secrets."

"Oh?" Li Jin's heart moved, and he said, "But there seems to be no such friendship between me and you."

"Hmph, he framed me time and time again, just as if I didn't know?" Lang Huai sneered and said, "I'm not afraid of you knowing, he forced me to beat my second brother and send him to Dali Temple with my own hands. Even my father has some criticisms about this. Chang'an city is full of wind and rain, and he talks a lot about Lang Huai cheating his brothers for Mu Gong's title. Is it true that Lang is a vegetarian?"

"Since you and I are enemies with him, why not join hands?" Lang Huai seemed to be quite impatient when he mentioned this matter, his chest couldn't stop heaving, and he only pressed his throat and said: "Besides, as a general, I naturally understand that Liu Ye wants to fight on the battlefield." Those who have made meritorious deeds."

"Your Highness the Crown Prince doesn't understand martial arts. Don't you know what Seventh Brother looks like? Lang is just a foreign minister." Lang Huai said: "What's more, now that Lang has a vested beauty, he has no intention of fighting. Sixth Lord, Lang Huai's words are sincere, please think hard Think about it."

After she finished speaking, she stood up, untied the sword from her waist, and said: "This sword is the sword I used when I fought in Anxi, and I gave it to the sixth master. Let's talk about celebrating birthday with Sizi." Li Jin subconsciously accepted Come here, and want to say something again, Lang Huai has already left openly.

He pulled out the sword and looked at it by the candlelight, only to see the cold light shining through his whole body, Li Jin secretly praised the sword.Xu is a sharp weapon that has really killed people, even in summer, Li Jin also felt a chill.

He couldn't help but think of Lang Huai's words just now, regardless of the fact that half of his hand was red when he crushed the cup just now, his eyes grew angry, he gritted his teeth and said, "Brother for more than 20 years, you have been unkind, so don't blame me for being unrighteous!"

Li Ye, Shaoqing of Zongzheng Temple, was the former king of Xiye Kingdom. Since he came to Chang'an, he never wanted to leave.He passed the throne to his nephew and settled in Chang'an with his family.The Ming emperor bestowed the surname Li, but appreciated his character, so he became the Shaoqing of Zongzheng Temple.

Li Ye is in a state of desperation these days because he doesn't know how to conclude Mingda's marriage.

Emperor Ming's favorite little daughter, Tatuo Tuo and Li Ye don't know what to do with just this one sentence.After all, Mingda didn't have a title, he didn't have a royal title, but he couldn't use royal etiquette.

The two of them hadn't made up their minds about this matter yet, when the orders from Princess Gucheng and the pro-Tibet came, they complained again and again.It is an extremely difficult task to gather Tang Muyi who is only in Gucheng, not to mention the cumbersome etiquette, the dowry of the princess and relatives, which is naturally richer than usual.But how to enrich the law, the two discussed for a few days, and after the detailed list was settled, the Emperor Ming only said: "Let's discuss again."

The Sacred Heart is unpredictable!It wasn't until Tatuo Tu accidentally learned from Lu Youlin that His Majesty didn't allow the marriage, but Gu Cheng insisted on marrying, that he sniffed out some clues, deleted the previous detailed list overnight, and submitted it again the next day.

After seeing it, Emperor Ming saw that it was his own daughter, so he couldn't help scolding: "How can you lose [-]%?"

Tatuo Tuo and Li Ye trembled and didn't know how to answer, Minghuang took a breath and sighed: "That's fine, just add [-]% of silk and satin, and [-]% of all kinds of musical instruments."

"My minister complies with the order." Tatuotu heaved a sigh of relief, and came out with Li Ye.But they didn't hear the conversation between Emperor Ming and Lu Youlin.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty the Princess hurts your heart so much. Maybe it's her child's family who wants to see and see. Don't make yourself mad." Lu Youlin shook his head and continued: "Actually, this old slave is also reluctant That child, it's just... oh!"

"I pampered her. If she hadn't made the decision on that day, how could this be the case!" Ming Huang couldn't help being short of breath when he said this, and hurriedly said, "Where's the elixir?"

Lu Youlin took out a thin emerald bottle from his sleeve, poured out two pills, and waited for the emperor to take it, and persuaded: "Your Majesty, if you feel unwell, you should pass on to the imperial physician? Always rely on this thing, It's not a climate."

"What do you know?" Emperor Ming didn't explain much, stood up and said, "Go to Aifei."

The Ministry of Rites and Zongzheng Temple have selected an auspicious day, and Princess Gucheng will leave Chang'an with the Tibetan mission on June [-].Lang Huai, as the envoy to see off the relatives, will lead three thousand iron armors to see the princess off.This time, Ta Tuo Tuo, Minister of the Ministry of Rites, will accompany Tubo as the deputy envoy.

The time was set, and after the document was announced to the world, he was busy preparing the dowry for Gucheng, and there were countless gifts to send to Tubo.People from the Ministry of Rites and Household Affairs should worry about these things, but Lang Huai hid himself completely on the pretext that Jin Wu had too many guards.

Maybe it's because of the guilt towards his sister, but Li Qian has prepared a lot, but he doesn't care about money at all, most of it is a big deal.All kinds of silks and satins are edible, as long as my sister likes them, she will put them in boxes without asking.

It was already June, and Li Qian went to Princess Gucheng's mansion to visit his sister.I asked the maid, but I heard that Gucheng left the mansion, saying that he was going to offer incense at the Temple of Mercy.

Li Qian sat alone in the hall for a long time, and finally left cruelly.As long as there is a one-ten-thousandth possibility, he is also unwilling to abandon his own sister.

In the 17th year of Kaiyang, Li Qian was only ten years old, and he was named King Huai by the Ming Emperor. He was the first prince to be named king except the prince Li Xun.Emperor Ming's preference for him, from the palace to the entourage who followed by him, has been selected with great effort.

Then as he got older, Wenzhi and martial arts became more and more excellent. As long as he opened his mouth to the Hanlin Academy and the Sixth Division, Emperor Ming let him practice.He even set a precedent, promising him the same etiquette as the prince, which should not be ignored.

Ambition, is it under such partiality that it slowly breeds and grows?Li Xun was modest and kind, and he always treated his younger brothers generously. Even though Li Qian's talent later on had overshadowed his edge as the prince, he did not see how resentful he was.

Gradually, Li Qian began to think, what would it be like if he became the crown prince and became the supreme being in the world?

Yes, what a taste it should be.Every time he thought of this, he became more and more confident and energetic.So far, he has become more respectful and virtuous as a corporal, and has organized every political affairs he is responsible for in an orderly manner.

However, the courtiers regard him as a treacherous king, an unknown person who intends to disturb the East Palace.Li Xun, who had always treated him leniently before, gradually shunned him.Li Qian knew that at this time, whether to seize or not to seize was no longer up to him.

That being the case, a man, why bother to be coy?So he wins over the courtiers who are willing to get close to him, and his actions gradually become more ruthless.For a time, there were many diners in Duke Huai's Mansion, which became a good talk.When he was triumphant, he only regretted one thing.

It was Lang Huai.

Lang Huai, who returned to Duke Mu's mansion, was the eldest son Lang Shixin didn't like, so when Emperor Ming asked him if he wanted a servant, Li Qian flatly refused.

"She's just a child, and all my sons and daughters are now in the Imperial Academy, so I don't want to have a child by my side." Emperor Ming was amused by his old-fashioned words, and made a decree that Lang Huai would become Lao Qi's attendant.

If he had known that Lang Huaineng had such a great ability-every time he thought of this section, Li Qian would be resentful.He thought he had good eyesight, but he misjudged her.

When Lang Huai came back, it skyrocketed even more.Li Qian tried his best, but Lang Huai didn't get in.He had no choice but to throw out Lang Wei, trying to force Lang Huai to submit.However, Lang Huai used such a vicious method to fish out Lang Yu, who had been deeply involved in the incident, in one fell swoop.

At this point, Lang Huai couldn't win him over.After thinking about it in every possible way, Li Qian had to use the Tibetan mission to put some pressure on her.After Mingda fell ill, he finally formed an alliance with that Mengshen, which was reassuring.

Lang Huai went to see off his relatives, so it was convenient for him to work in the court.I just don't know how useful it will be in Linzi - in his opinion, Li Yu is just an idiot. Apart from being good at painting and ink painting, he can do anything else, so there is nothing to fear.
