Tang Xuan

Wei Lingzhi and others were invited to have a drink, but they didn't take a bath today, so the time was set until the afternoon.Lang Huai knew this early on, so he ate breakfast, took the draft memorial and a few proclamations, and went to Daming Palace with Ming Da.

Ming Da disliked the stuffy heat in the carriage, so the two simply rode one by one without any followers, and walked slowly on the street.Ming Da tilted his head and said, "I heard that children look different every day. I'm afraid my younger brother won't be able to recognize him, right?"

Lang Huai was stunned for a moment, then remembered that she was referring to the Ming emperor's eighth son Wei Wang Li Yuan who was born to Concubine Liang, and said with a smile: "I have never seen it before. But we have been separated for five years, the first time we meet again, I really didn't realize it. That little guy who beats you decently is actually you."

Back then when Anxianglou reunited and Mingda was in the ring, Lang Huai saw her but didn't recognize her.Mingda also recalled it, and couldn't help laughing: "Isn't it? I remember that you were white and clean when you were young. If I didn't recognize you and took out Chunjun, I would definitely not recognize you, a black-faced boy."

Only then did Lang Huai learn of the reason, touched the sheath of the Chunjun sword, and burst out laughing.Both of them were dressed in moon white plain clothes, Ming Da wore men's clothes for riding a horse, tied his hair with a ribbon inlaid with glass, and only had a white jade pendant around his waist, he looked extremely handsome.

While talking about something, I suddenly heard someone calling Brother Huai.Lang Huai squinted his eyes looking for the sound, but saw a seven-foot scholar, jumping up and down calling her.This man was so good-looking that Lang Huai immediately recognized Zhang Anren from Yizhou.

Ming Da also saw him, and said to Lang Huai, "The ghost is still here."

Now that they met by chance, Lang Huai tapped his toes, walked over, turned over and fell off the horse, and stood in front of them. The several Lang Huai beside him looked familiar, and she cupped her hands and said with a smile: "So it's Brother Zhang."

"Brother Huai, I came to Chang'an last month, and I haven't been able to find out about you. Today is a good day. It's better to meet by chance!" Zhang Anren smiled and got close to Lang Huai, and waved at Mingda who refused to dismount.This person has a simple mind and forgets it afterwards, so Lang Huai doesn't mind his despicable actions.

But the few people who followed him clearly recognized Lang Huai and Ming Da.These few people are hesitant, they are not polite, they are not good, they are hesitating.

Lang Huai saw clearly in his eyes and was amused in his heart. This was a good time, so he said generously: "Brother Zhang, forgive me, but I really didn't want to reveal my identity at the beginning. I made up a name at random, but it was a lie."

She gave correspondence to those people and said: "Brother Pei, Brother Zhao, and Brother Shangguan, I just accompany my son to visit His Majesty, so there is no need to be polite."

Pei Geng was cautious, and regardless of Zhang Anren's suspicious expression, he bowed and said, "Duke, etiquette cannot be revoked. Are you entering the palace with a girl?" Zhang Anren's complexion suddenly changed, and he stammered. : "You, you are Mu Gonglang Huai!"

Zhao Jun was the eldest son of Zhao Moyan from the Ministry of Punishment. He had stayed in Yizhou for three years, and he became good friends with Zhang Anren.

Everyone knew that they belonged to Duke Huai's lineage, but Lang Huai had a high status, so it was not their pawns who offended them.Zhao Junming reprimanded Zhang Anren, but actually offended Zhang Anren.

Lang Huai shook his head and said, "It doesn't matter, it's not a crime if Brother Zhang doesn't know." She didn't care, looked at the sky, and said, "Since Brother Zhang already knows, if you are free some other day, please come and sit at the mansion. I have to go to the palace, we can talk about it another day." After finishing speaking, she got on the horse, let out a clear drink, and walked away from Mingda.

Since Zhang Anren knew about Lang Huai, it was not difficult to understand that that delicate and charming woman was Mingda, the young girl of the Holy Majesty, and her face was ashen ashes.

Zhao Jun patted him and said, "Brother Zhang, when did you recognize Duke Mu? Seeing that she treats you kindly, why don't you tell us about this opportunity?"

"I randomly found a place in Yizhou to beg for food, but I didn't know she was Duke Mu!" Zhang Anren said, Pei Geng and Zhao Jun immediately reacted and asked, "What are you talking about?"

"Yizhou! They stayed in Yizhou for more than a month in March and April this year." Zhang Anren was absent-minded, afraid that Lang Huai would stun them with drugs that night when he knew about the Shangqing Palace.Fortunately, I just went in and took a look, and didn't do anything else, so it wasn't an offense.

Pei Geng shook his head slightly, indicating that this matter should not be restless, and that it must be reported to Queen Huai before making a decision.He made some calculations, found a reason, and said to Shangguan Qi in a low voice: "Go quickly and tell His Highness to see if His Highness is free. I will invite him to the mansion tonight for a deep chat. If His Highness is free, please ask His Highness." step."

Shangguan Qi replied: "Understood, everything is up to Brother Pei." The three of them looked at each other, and dragged Zhang Anren, who was still in a daze, to Pingkangfang. Never noticed.

"Why Zhengchou leaked the news, I met that scholar." After walking far, Ming Da teased Lang Huai: "You are so lucky."

Lang Huai was not complacent, and replied, "I can't let you down when the heavens are so beautiful. Let's go, or Your Majesty will be in a hurry."

After entering the palace, I learned that Emperor Ming was in the Liyuan.The two of them were guided by the inner guard, and they met many soldiers of the Imperial Forest Army along the way, and they all bowed their hands to Lang Huai to salute.Lang Huai returned the gift one by one, regardless of his grade, he was treated equally.

"Don't blame him for treating you as a lifelong enemy. If you are still in the Imperial Forest Army, Liang Qinfang will not be able to succeed." Mingda sighed at once, but Lang Huai said: "What people want is sometimes a means .”

Arriving outside the pear garden, the two got off their horses, and before they entered, they heard childish laughter inside.Lang Huai glanced at Mingda, shook the catkin lightly, and said, "No matter what, the child is always innocent."

Li Yuan stumbled a bit when he walked, but he was pampered lawlessly.He looked at Mingda who just came in, his dark eyes showed curiosity, and then without warning, he threw the bamboo doll in his hand towards Mingda vigorously.Judging by his appearance, it is obvious that he has done a lot in this matter.The doll went straight to Mingda's chest, and was caught by Lang Huai.Mingda took half a step back, never expecting that such a child would suddenly attack.

"Xinu!" Emperor Ming was so anxious that he dropped the pipa in his hand and ran down, slapped Li Yuan on the forehead, and said angrily, "You are getting more and more wanton!"

How can such a small child understand this?What's more, Emperor Ming treated him very well on weekdays, when did he speak so loudly? "Wow" cried, Concubine Liang hurried over, picked up Li Yuan and left without saying a word.

"Daddy, I'm fine. This is great, the noble concubine will hate me to death." Mingda held Emperor Ming's arm and said coquettishly: "After playing so much, I just wanted to tell you something interesting. How can you When I got angry, I didn’t know what to say.”

Emperor Ming's expression turned stern, he stroked his daughter's head, and pulled her into the room to sit down together.Lang Huai showed a helpless look at Lu Youlin, and followed him in.

"Where did they all go?" Ming Huang said while ordering Ming Da's favorite food, just now it seemed that the thunderous anger never happened at all.

Mingda laughed and said: "I went to Taibai Mountain, and then walked the Shu Road. Yizhou is really interesting. I also went to Qingcheng Mountain to visit the Jianfu Palace that my father ordered to build. It is very majestic."

"As long as you like it." Emperor Ming loves his daughter eagerly, and talked to her for a long time before finding a gap, feeling a little embarrassed, and said to Lang Huai: "I see her complexion is getting better and better, hasn't she been less naughty along the way?"

Lang Huai smiled and said, "It's interesting."

After lunch together, Emperor Ming asked her: "Since you went to Yu'er, is he still like that now?"

"It's still dull, but following the gentlemen of the Wangfu, they are studying hard and making some progress." Mingda replied truthfully, and then said: "When I was parting, Brother Qi said, thank you for helping him, now I can't always serve you, every day Very sad."

Emperor Ming said: "He can think so, it's not in vain for me to spend my time." Ming Huang is so wise that he has already seen that Lang Huai has something on his mind, so he asked: "What do you want to say? Say it as soon as possible!"

Lang Huai and Mingda looked at each other, and said: "Your Majesty has sharp eyes, and I dare not hide it. I saw the mansion report on the Seventh Prince's Mansion before, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince banned the East Palace because of the disaster and civil uprising in Henan Province. But Your Majesty, Si Zi and The minister returned from Henan Road, and what His Royal Highness said was true. Bianzhou Jiedu envoy Liang Shubi ignored the disaster situation and forced expropriation, which led to the rebellion of the victims. Then he led the army to suppress and slaughter innocent people." She took out her pocket as she spoke. Looking at a few sheets of thin paper, he said bitterly: "The Seven Kings said that when the victims of the disaster in Bianzhou rioted, Linzi City also flooded with countless victims. If His Highness hadn't forcibly opened an official storehouse to relieve the disaster, I'm afraid the county palace would not be able to keep it."

"Your Majesty, I don't dare to speak nonsense. On the way back, Bianzhou is ten rooms and nine empty, and Henan Taoist population is no longer the same. If I hadn't come back and saw the prosperity of Chang'an City, I would have almost forgotten that this is a prosperous and prosperous age!" Lang Huai became more excited when he said: "I'm a military commander, and I don't know how to govern the people's livelihood. But what I see is believing, and I only report what I see and hear to Your Majesty. I implore His Majesty to order everything. The prince is neither afraid nor the minister."

When she said this, Ming Da also walked up to her, knelt down together, opened his glazed eyes, and said to Emperor Ming: "Father, what brother Huai said was also what Ming Da saw. We are not here to complain to elder brother, It's just for those innocent people who died tragically. Just because the imperial concubine is good, doesn't mean that her brothers are all good. Daddy, you have always been aware of the details. There must be someone in the middle who tricked Daddy. It must be hatred to the bone." How transparent Ming Da was, he first said that they were not trying to seize the heir, then picked Concubine Liang out, and finally took out Empress Jiang to wake up Ming Huang.

Empress Jiang was born in a family in the south of the Yangtze River. Because she was the only queen, the patriarch ordered that she should not be an official for three generations.How can such a hundred-year-old master compare to a clown like the Liang family?

Ming Huang squinted his eyes, and the first thing he thought of was that there was something tricky among bad people.He signaled to Lu Youlin, and then said: "I see, Lang Huai, all the things from you will be presented to the court tomorrow morning."

"I obey the order." Lang Huai kowtowed, and said to the Emperor Ming: "I will apologize to you first. Tomorrow, many people will leave Beijing without authorization. Please protect your Majesty."

Only then did Emperor Ming show his face, and said: "Okay, everyone get up. I sent someone to ask questions, you two go back first."

After leaving the Daming Palace, Mingda said: "It seems that our guess was half right. Father never doubted Liang Shubi, that's the reason."

The two looked at each other, looking back at the majestic palace, they couldn't help feeling chills.
