Tang Xuan

In the spring of the 33rd year of Kaiyang, the prince banned the East Palace.Duke Wei Qianyi of the State of Qi was appointed as the governor of Beiting Protectorate, and left Chang'an in the west.The general of the Yulin Army was vacant for one month, and was appointed by the Ministry of War Shangshu Changjin Hou Yuchi'an.The Minister of the Ministry of War was missing, and Li Qian, the king of Huai, served concurrently and chose a good minister to replace him.

At that time, Lord Mu Guohuai was traveling in Yizhou, completely ignoring the turmoil in Chang'an.

After leaving Qingcheng, Zhang Anren had nothing to say all the way, but when he parted, he frowned and invited Lang Huai.

"Brother Huai, how old am I than you, don't blame you for being straightforward." Zhang Anren said with a straight face, "You two are not real brother and sister, so why cover up like this and mislead others? If you said it early, I don't have to hurt lovesickness in the first half of the year."

Lang Huai didn't expect Zhang Anren to say these words, he was taken aback for a moment, then cupped his fists in apology: "It's my brother's fault, because my wife is innocent and doesn't like to be restrained, so I let her dress up as an unmarried woman, it's fun and comfortable Brother Zhang is frank, Huai Qi thanked you for reminding me, and I will pay attention in the future." She frankly admitted that the two got married because they wanted Zhang Anren to give up.As expected, Zhang Anren's face turned bitter, he sighed, turned and left.

He neither gave his address nor said goodbye, which made Lang Huai change his impression of him a little--I am afraid that he is really an innocent young man, with a bit of arrogance and wantonness. Although he is too arrogant, he is okay in his bones.Not knowing if there will be a chance to meet again in Chang'an in the future, Lang Huai shook his head with a smile and turned to go back.

He stayed for another half a decade, and seeing that it was going to be hot, Lang Huai arranged for someone to rent a boat, take the water first, and then go overland to Linzi County, Henan Province.

Unexpectedly, after boarding the boat, Lang Huai became seasick.After half a month of vomiting and diarrhea, I gradually got used to it.For this month's itinerary, we will only abandon the ship and go ashore until mid-May.

Mingda was impatient to ride in a carriage, so he just bought a carriage and brought his luggage with him.Lang Huai gave up his Tayun, chose a few good horses in the horse market, prepared food and grass, and set off.

She spent a lot of money and was being followed at the horse market, how could Lang Huai not notice it?She didn't pay attention to it, and just gathered together and set off.After leaving the county seat, he walked all the way north, and after a while, a dozen or so riders really caught up.

Naturally, these individuals are not the opponents of Lang Huai and others. To capture the thieves, first capture the king, and when Tao Jun captures the leader first, Lang Huai pulled off his face scarf. If you have feet, why don’t you just start a business and support your family?” She didn’t want to cause trouble, so she just showed her waist badge and said: “We are from the Mu Gongfu, so I ask your subordinates to stop staring at us. I will not pursue it. Get out!"

These individuals were released so easily that they wanted to die here today.When Lang Huai and the others had gone far away, one of the men said: "You are really Lianjiazi, elder brother don't need to be afraid of them, brothers earlier, I won't believe it..."

"What the hell, I've never seen it before! Do you know!" The headman spat fiercely, and hurried back with the people.

If the road is really peaceful, it takes only half a month to cross the Yellow River, and after a few more days, we will reach the boundary of Linzi.

After the disaster year, it is indeed bleak.Especially when they entered the Yellow River Basin, several people felt more deeply.Fortunately, last year Li Qian repaired the embankment and put in a lot of effort to control the flood. This year's spring flood did not break the embankment, so the remaining people had some way to live.

Finally arrived in Linzi city this day, Mingda lifted the curtain of the car and looked at this famous city in Henan Province.Looking around, I can see that the main street is clean and tidy, with pedestrians going back and forth. Although the shops are not as numerous as in Yizhou, they have a complete range of types, which is not like the barren scene after the disaster.

Lang Huai only glanced twice, and then said: "Let's kill the door directly, I'm afraid it will scare the scholar."So he called Tao Jun and asked him to ride first to report the news.

All the way to the south of the city, around the back door of the Prince's Mansion, Lang Huai helped Mingda get off the car.Li Yu hurried over from the back door, just in time to see them get off the car, he just wanted to shout out, when he realized that if the news of these two people appearing in Linzi spread back to Chang'an, it might be too inappropriate, so he had to hold back and wait in the door.

When the door was closed, Mingda rushed over first, put his arms around Li Yu's neck and whispered softly, "Seventh Brother, Seventh Brother, you miss me so much!"

The two of them are the closest, and Li Yu couldn't help but wet his eyes. He picked up the little girl, turned around several times, and said, "Yeah, not bad, I have grown taller and gained weight!"

The two brothers and sisters were tired of each other, so Lang Huai stood aside with his hands behind his back, looking at them with a smile.There was also a surge of excitement in her heart, but she was calm after all, so she didn't show any signs of emotion.I saw Li Yu's long lake-colored gown, with his hair tied casually. He hadn't seen him for more than a year, and his face was much more defined.

Firefox jumped out of the car and followed into the door. He stared at Li Yu for a long while with wide eyes, his nose trembling. After a cup of tea, he seemed to recognize him before relaxing.

Only then did the siblings recover from their gaffe.Li Yu stepped forward and patted Lang Huai on the shoulder, and said with a smile: "Now you call me Seventh Brother, but it is justified! You are very courageous, but you have always followed the rules, how dare you bring Mingda out? What if you give it to the people in Chang'an I know, what can I do if I read your book?"

Lang Huai punched him back, and said with a smile, "The mountain people have their own tricks."She was also dressed in plain clothes, panting: "Your Highness is really overjoyed, how can you let the guests stand at the door? I have ordered the side rooms to be tidied up and the banquets to be tidied up. Let's all go in." She sounded like a lady in charge of the palace. , Lang Huai raised his eyebrows lightly, and didn't say anything.

"Yes yes yes, I'm so confused! Have you gone to invite General Gu and Mr. Fang?" Li Yu pulled Lang Huaimingda and walked in, followed by Baoqin to lead the way, and replied: "Send someone, say There is something important to discuss."

The other servants helped carry the salute and set up the carriage, and Lan Jun and the three followed behind. After a while, they arrived at the hall, where Tao Jun was already waiting.

"Li'er, you all go and rest, there are people here to serve you." Li Yu didn't doubt that he was there, and told them to go and rest.

Mingda pointed to Li'er, and said to Firefox: "Lieutenant Huaidu, follow Li'er to eat meat, I'll see you at night." Firefox could understand human speech, and followed Li'er with his big tail.Lang Huai nodded slightly, Zhu Jun and the others were relieved.

Not long after, Fang Shiquan and Gu Yang arrived one after another.Seeing that it was the two of them, Gu Yang was fine, so he didn't say much after greetings.Fang Shiquan reprimanded: "The Duke is too careless! How can you act rashly now?" It seemed that they were not in Chang'an at all, and it was not him at all.

Lang Huai smiled, and then told the truth: "You don't have to worry too much, it was His Majesty who ordered me to play with Sizi to relax and recuperate from illness."

It was only then that Fang Shiquan was blocked, and he blinked and said, "Let's talk about business, Fang is going to talk about private matters."

At this time, the food and drink were ready, Fang Shiquan raised his glass and stood still, and said to Lang Huai, "Shiquan, thank you Duke for waking up! In the past, the master of the Taoist government looked up to the Duke, but what you said made Shiquan suddenly enlightened. The past is like a frog at the bottom of a well. It's time to watch the world." Fang Shiquan bowed and saluted, and he said with a sigh of relief: "I have seen the Duke today, so I can thank you in person. Finally, I have settled my mind."

After making such a fuss, Lang Huai knew that this was Fang Shiquan's nature, so he thanked him for his insensitivity.Talking about the current court situation, several people felt quite discouraged and sighed.

"Duke, you have to resolve the deadlock of the prince. I'm afraid your whereabouts cannot be concealed anyway." Fang Shiquan planned this plan for a long time, and said: "Your Majesty is the most trustworthy girl. If a girl submits It proves that everything will be solved easily. It’s just that if this situation is implemented, the Duke’s idle life will not stop—Duke Huai will definitely see the Duke as a thorn in his flesh, and he wants to get rid of it soon.”

Lang Huai nodded, and said: "I have thought about this plan all the way, and it is also the same reason. But His Royal Highness is willing to be angry for the people of Li, let alone me? Seventh brother, don't be foolish, how many real talents do you have under your hands?" material?"

Li Yu sighed and said: "Is this still a search with your heart? It's everywhere. The censors of the official department communicated and shielded each other, and even my county prince's mansion never visited. I only stayed in Linzi for half a day before leaving. I got the news in vain and prepared a bunch. But Mr. Fang said, if you send it straight back to Chang'an, you won't be able to get in front of your father, this is really..."

"We will stay here for about a month. You take the time to tidy up and I will take it back to Chang'an so that His Highness the Crown Prince can be exonerated." Lang Huai rubbed his brows and said again: "I think Linzi city defense is quite organized, it should be It's because of General Gu."

"The duke of the state has too much reputation. Compared with you, he is naturally not on a high platform." Gu Yang waved his hand and declined, but Lang Huai said: "Defense is not my specialty. General Gu has lost his talent now. When I have a chance in the future, I will definitely report back to His Majesty."

When she said this, Li Yu naturally didn't think it was disobedient, but Gu Yang was still in a cold sweat.Fortunately, Li Yu said something else, diverted from the beginning, and was relieved.

A few of them talked about government affairs, and Mingda was bored, so he had to talk naughty things with Baoqin.

In the past, she only met this oiran of Anxianglou in a hurry, but she didn't know the depth of the gully in her chest.We met today, but I feel that Baoqin's tone of voice is elegant and his conversation is good. He is Seventh Brother's beloved.

"You've been wronged too. You have no name or distinction." Mingda held on to her hand and comforted him, "But Brother Qi is not a fickle person. If he dares to bully you, I will deal with him for you."

"Ma'am, you don't understand love anymore," Baoqin said softly, "I am pleased with His Highness, even if I have no name and no role in my life, I am willing. If I have to leave him in the future, I will miss him all my life until I die. "Although she was talking to Mingda, her eyes never left Li Yu's eyes for a moment, her face was calm, but her mouth was full of shocking words until she died.

Ming Da lowered his head, and suddenly remembered that Lang Huai was willing to sacrifice his life for her.Why did others only feel moved, but she became flustered.As soon as she lowered her head, it happened that the draft passed by, blowing half of her bangs.Baoqin was about to tease her and Lang Huai with sideways eyes, but he was shocked when he saw her brows were straight.

Baoqin calmed down, looked carefully several times while speaking, and finally confirmed one thing - Mingda, who had been married for more than half a year, was still a virgin.She was full of doubts, and anyone with a discerning eye would think that the two were in love with each other, let alone childhood sweethearts.If Lang Huai wants to keep his filial piety, how can she bear it at her young age?What's more, the folk customs of the Tang Dynasty are open, and Lang Huai has been accompanied by maids since he was a child, so how could he not understand this.

The more Baoqin thought about it, the more confused he became, so he could only hold back and accompany Mingda to tell some interesting stories about them in Linzi.

When Fang Shiquan and Gu Yang left, Li Yu felt dissatisfied, so he dragged Ming Dalang to his inner study.Baoqin knew that the three of them must have something important to do, so she sent food and drinks, but found a room by herself.One is to report to Lang Huai's people and tell them where their master is; the other is to see what else is missing.

Without thinking about it, she paid a little attention because of her understanding, but found that the three maids following her were all perfect.If Dan Li'er is like this, it still makes sense.But the same is true of Lan Jun and Zhu Jun, who serve Lang Huai personally, and Baoqin can't help being respectful - such a Lang Jun is really rare.

Hearing that Ming Da was weak, maybe it was because of this reason, Lang Huai couldn't bear it?

She had something to worry about, so she went slowly to the inner study, but was blocked by someone outside the door.Looking up, it was Lang Huai who came out in a hurry under the pretext of waiting for her.

Baoqin hurriedly backed away two steps, bowed and saluted.Lang Huaixu didn't help, accepted her gift, and said softly: "Sister-in-law, don't say I'm crazy, I've already done what you're thinking about. My wife has already picked up the bones. To prevent him, I ordered someone to bury him in Lang It is also a good place with beautiful mountains and rivers near the cemetery."

Holding the piano in a trance for a while, sadness came from it, but Yingying bowed down, kowtowed three times to Lang Huai, and said: "The great kindness of the Duke, I will never forget holding the piano." Just now she deliberately revealed her status as a lady of the county prince's mansion. But it's crazy.

Only then did Lang Huai help her to get up, and said: "Sister-in-law's wish has been granted, and from now on, Prince Huai's people can be dispatched with peace of mind." Li Qian has been looking for Baoqin, and she received a letter from Shang Zixuan more than a month ago. It was really noticed by Li Qian.But when Li Qian thought about it, he knew that Emperor Ming had approved this matter.He had evil plans in his heart, and he threatened someone with the old man's bones, hoping that Baoqin would come down to personally spy on Li Yu.

Baoqin blushed, she was threatened by someone before, but she didn't completely refuse, it was really in case Yilang would break his promise. "Don't worry, my lord, Li Qian and I will not live together in this life. Although the little girl is humble and cannot avenge her, she is determined not to be driven!"

Lang Huai smiled, and the matter was over.Baoqin no longer hesitated, and said in a deep voice: "From now on, the Duke has ordered, and Baoqin will be smashed to pieces to repay the Duke's kindness."

Only then did Lang Huai nod his head, thinking about the time, he should go back.However, she was about to turn around and go in, she hesitated for a moment holding the piano, and said: "Duke..."

Lang Huai turned his head and said, "What's the matter?"

Baoqin made up his mind, but still bowed his head and said: "The Duke never hangs around the entertainment venues, but in the entertainment venues, women like me have been taught since childhood, and they are the best at observing words and expressions." She was thinking about words, and the speed of speech became slow.Although Lang Huai didn't understand what she was going to say, he stood still and waited.

The voice of Baoqin gradually lowered, and he said: "During the dinner just now, Baoqin accidentally noticed madam... madam seems to be perfect, not to mention those maids..." She stopped, "Duke must be on guard against those who are interested. Your Majesty has learned that if you two don't agree with each other, I'm afraid it will be bad for you." After she finished speaking, she bowed sideways and went in to get more wine, leaving Lang Huai standing alone.

Such things, Lang Huai did not expect.What surprised her was that Baoqin would speak frankly to her, presumably because of her mother's funeral.It seems that this woman is useful, and I have not misjudged her in the past.

But she and Mingda's consummation is a big joke in the world, so she has to find a way to make up for it.
