Tragedy of Time Traveling Companion Reading

The next day—

After reading with the prince in the morning, Han Yan hesitated and asked for a day off.Liu Che has long been used to Han Yan's non-stop asking for leave these days.So I didn't say much, just waved my hand.

After Han Yan left the palace, she first went back to Qibaozhai to get a few boxes of things, and then checked the last month's account book under the instructing of the shopkeeper, and then drove straight to the direction of Tangyi Houfu.Walking across Suzaku Street towards Qilin Street, the flow of people gradually thinned out.When Han Yan rushed to Gonggaohou's mansion, the eldest princess, Gillian and others had just had lunch.Hearing the news from the concierge that Han Yan was coming to see him, he couldn't help raising his eyebrows in doubt: "What is he here for?"

The concierge didn't know what the eldest princess meant, so he couldn't help hesitating: "If the princess doesn't want to meet, the younger one will send her away?"

"What nonsense, are you able to dismiss Han Yan casually?" The eldest princess immediately reprimanded upon hearing the words.Seeing the porter's frightened look for a moment, he softened his face and said, "Bring him in quickly, and I will receive him in the main hall."

He also ordered the maid who was waiting on the side to say: "Bring a bowl of sour plum soup that is kept in the ice cellar. This Han Yan has a strange diet, and he doesn't eat ordinary tea soup."

Now it seems that Han Yan's reputation as a foodie has spread throughout Chang'an.

"No!" The maid bowed in response.Turned around and left.

"Mother, didn't we just come out of the palace? Ah Yan has something to come over to talk about?" Chen Ajiao raised her eyebrows curiously and asked.

The weather in midsummer is extremely hot, and a few movements will make the whole body sweaty.Chen Ajiao fanned the wind with her hands a little irritably, and looked outside the hall unconsciously.

"It has nothing to do with you. Go to the inner courtyard and change your clothes! It's a hot day, and you're sweating profusely!" The eldest princess looked at A-Jiao and said casually.No matter what it is, it is not suitable for Gillian to listen to what can make Han Yan appear in Tangyihou's mansion at this time.

"Mother!" Gillian responded dissatisfied, but felt the stickiness of her body, so she obediently went into the inner courtyard to take a bath.

After such a delay, Han Yan entered the main hall under the respectful guidance of the servants.

"Han Yan has met the eldest princess!" Han Yan walked to the center of the main hall and bowed.

"Sit down!" the eldest princess said with a smile. "It's a hot day, why did you think of coming to me?"

"This is the latest jewelry and ornaments launched by Qibaozhai. Ah Yan specially designed two pieces for the eldest princess and Gillian." Han Yan avoided talking about the eldest princess, and first presented the gift in her hand.

After the treasure fight, Qibaozhai has become the veritable leader of Chang'an City.And Han Yan from time to time "borrowed" all kinds of jewelry that later generations have seen in watching videos and jewelry exhibitions, which are expensive, gorgeous and fashionable.So much so that the wives of the great Han family flock to her.In order to please the eldest princess, Han Yan would specially design a few unique and unique jewelry for the two of them every time she launched a new style, which is both priceless and useful for face.For so many years, the cannibal has a short mouth and soft hands, and the eldest princess has long since fallen to Han Yan's side.This is also the reason why Wang Zhi has been afraid to do anything.

"Ayan has a heart." The eldest princess took the brocade box, opened it and looked at the extremely luxurious and exquisite headdress inside, and her satisfaction flashed across.

"Ah Yan should." Han Yan leaned forward and said.

"That's true!" The eldest princess answered casually, and said meaningfully: "The old queen has already announced to the world what you consider her grandson's will. In this way, I can be regarded as your aunt, and Gillian is also your elder sister. Lah! We are all one family, so I don’t have those formalities.”

"Han Yan is terrified!" She got up and bowed, but Han Yan didn't show the slightest shirk.

Seeing this, the eldest princess knew that Han Yan understood what she said.Can't help but become more and more satisfied.Allies are smarter.Of course, if you have a good heart, that is the best of the best.

"A-Jiao is spoiled by me. Although she is a few years older, she is arrogant, simple and kind. Although she is a bit arrogant occasionally, she has no bad intentions." The maid put the sour plum soup in front of Han Yan, The eldest princess said unintentionally: "I know you don't like tea soup with added ingredients. This is specially iced sour plum soup. Drink a bowl on a hot day to relieve the heat."

"The eldest princess is sympathetic, Ah Yan knows it well." Han Yan thanked her with a smile. "Ajiao is lively in nature, pure and kind, so she is a person of great wealth."

"Great wealth does not necessarily lead to great fortune, A-Jiao has such a simple temperament, and she doesn't know if she is suitable for living in the palace." The eldest princess sighed, "I really don't know if I was right or not after all my efforts. "

"The eldest princess has a kind heart." Han Yan praised quietly. "People in the world say that if you sow melons, you will reap melons, and if you sow beans, you will reap beans. If the eldest princess is kind to others, she will be rewarded with blessings."

"I hope so!" The eldest princess complied, looking at Han Yan's picturesque eyebrows, implying something: "Over the years, Gillian and Che'er have occasional quarrels, and you are the one who mediates them. I look at it coldly. So, Che'er is getting older and has an idea in his mind. But he can still listen to what you say."

After a pause, without waiting for Han Yan's response, she continued: "I should have thanked you, but since we are a family, I'm not lying. I don't know why Ah Yan came here today. Just say When I come out, as long as it’s not about the court, I still have some face.” “Thank you, Eldest Princess, for your kindness.” Han Yan thanked her first, and then said seriously: “I’m here today because of Lord Gillian’s business. "

"Oh?" The eldest princess raised her eyebrows in surprise when she heard the words: "Could it be that Gillian is causing trouble again?"

"Of course not." Han Yan smiled and shook her head, "I just don't know, how old is Gillian?"

"Why are you asking this?" The eldest princess looked suspicious. Han Yan stayed with Gillian and the others all day, so how could she not know how old Gillian is.

"According to the law, men can only be crowned at their [-]th birthday. After the crowning ceremony, it means that they have grown up and can talk about marriage..." Han Yan raised her mouth lightly, but remained silent.

The eldest princess drooped her eyelids, and immediately understood the meaning of Han Yan's words.If Liu Che really waited until the 23th coronation ceremony, Gillian would be [-] years old.Not to mention the age, but the youthful charm that a woman should have is gradually passing away. How can she win the heart of the young emperor by then?

"You mean..." The eldest princess frowned.There is still some hesitation in my heart.

"What I mean is naturally what the eldest princess thinks." Han Yan said with a smile, "I don't know if the princess thinks so?"

"Why did you suddenly think of this?" The eldest princess was still a little worried.

How do I know?

Han Yan is also full of doubts.Chuntuo intercepted Weiyang Palace yesterday, but it was Emperor Jing who ordered him to find a way to persuade Empress Dowager Dou to agree to Liu Che's coronation ceremony in advance.

Han Yan read "Historical Records" through, and naturally knew that Liu Che was crowned at the age of 16, but now that Emperor Jing's side incidents happened, he was caught off guard.Although I don't understand what Emperor Jing's plan is, it's just a matter of eating the king's salary and being loyal to the king.What's more, this matter is also good for him, so Han Yan is naturally happy to take over.

However, such a plan cannot be discussed in detail with Liu Xun.After all, Emperor Jing privately ordered Chuntuo to call him to Weiyang Palace, but he did not say so. Naturally, Han Yan did not dare to reveal a word of Emperor Jing's order, so she justified it by saying: "Ayan also saw that the eldest princess is quite worried recently. Thinking about it These elder princesses take care of Ah Yan, naturally they have to share the worries of the eldest princess."

The girl is 15 years old and Ji, Gillian is already much older now.As for what to worry about, Han Yan naturally doesn't need to elaborate.

"In two months, it will be my mother's birthday..." The eldest princess said thoughtfully, "At that time, all the feudal lords will return to Chang'an to congratulate my mother."

"That's the filial piety of princes everywhere." Han Yan said with a smile.Zhuangruo inadvertently mentioned: "I heard that His Royal Highness Liang Wang spent a lot of money to find a bird that can sing. Its voice is clear and beautiful, and it is specially used to amuse the Queen Mother and the elderly."

"Liu Wu is also a filial person." The eldest princess raised her eyebrows and said tacitly.His filial piety is naturally filial, but the one who is filial is the Queen Mother Dou alone.As for the younger A-Jiao...

"His Royal Highness Liang Wang is different from others in the hearts of the Queen Mother and the elderly." Han Yan mediated slowly.The fact that Empress Dowager Dou wanted to inherit the throne to King Liang was unknown to all civil and military officials in the Manchu Dynasty.When the elder princess turned to Liu Che for Gillian's marriage, she had already offended King Liang.Although everyone didn't show their love for their compatriots, but this love is a matter of a lifetime.When I reach the junior generation, I don't know what year it will be.

Seeing the eldest princess's silence, Han Yan casually broke the news. "I heard that King Liang is not in good health recently. This time, he intends to stay in Chang'an for a long time and stay with the Empress Dowager in Changle Palace..."

The eldest princess did not show any strangeness on her face, but she quietly clenched her pair of tender hands.Han Yan looked coldly at the tugged silk handkerchief and smiled secretly.

The law of the Han Dynasty stipulated that every time the princes and kings met with the emperor, there were four opportunities before and after.All in all, more than 20 days.There are fewer days and I can't do anything, so don't worry about it.But if Liang Wang really managed to live in Chang'an, with long nights and many dreams, no one would know if things would change after a long time.

"The law of the Han Dynasty clearly stipulates that princes and kings can only stay in Chang'an for 20 days. If King Liang made this request without authorization, I am afraid that other princes and kings will not accept it!" The eldest princess said absent-mindedly.She didn't notice that her address to Liu Wu had changed to the more distant Liang Wang.But Han Yan noticed it.

"So what? After all, His Royal Highness Liang Wang is the biological flesh and blood of the Empress Dowager and his Majesty's younger brother, so he is different from other princes and kings. If the Empress Dowager speaks, His Majesty is benevolent and filial. It will go against the wishes of the Queen Mother and her elders." Han Yan opened her eyes and spoke nonsense, skillfully fooling the eldest princess.

"Then how can I do it?" The eldest princess answered impatiently, and just now she felt that it was not good, and immediately explained: "The state has state laws, and the family has family rules. How can you break the rules because of your own selfishness!"

Speaking of this, he said meaningfully: "However, in the past two years, the Empress Dowager's health has become worse and worse, and Her Majesty has also been seriously ill for a long time, lingering on the couch. I heard from the folks that there is something to say..."

When Han Yan heard this, she almost didn't laugh out loud.Immediately, he bit the tip of his tongue hard, and said with a smile: "What does the eldest princess mean?"

"This Che'er is not young anymore. His Majesty has let him participate in state affairs, so he naturally recognizes Che'er's ability. Now that Che'er has grown up, this crowning is just a formality!" the eldest princess said slowly .

Han Yanle added fuel to the side: "Ah Yan's thinking is the same. The Lord Gillian is three years older than His Royal Highness, and has become more and more embarrassing in the past few years. Why not strike while the iron is hot after the crowning ceremony? The Lord Gillian got married. It also made the Queen Mother and the old man lively."

"You are also filial." The eldest princess became more and more elated when she heard that. "It's no wonder the old lady misses you so much. It's rare that you are willing to spend your time coaxing the old lady. I think you have done more than Liu Wu in recent years!"

"Ayan, how can he be worthy, how can he be comparable to King Liang? However, it is logical that His Royal Highness King Liang can stay in Chang'an for a longer period of time, which can be regarded as fulfilling his filial piety!" Han Yan pretended not to She raised her mouth in concern, and the eldest princess' eyes lit up when she heard it.

"There is no need to rush this matter, and we have to think about it in the long run." The eldest princess said, but the thought between her brows made Han Yan understand that the matter was more than half done.I didn't say any more, but instead changed the subject and chatted with the eldest princess about clothes and jewelry.He is the owner of Qibaozhai, so he naturally understands this.Seeing some gray marks on the temples and fine wrinkles around the corners of the eyes, the eldest princess immediately said a few beauty prescriptions, and the eldest princess was so happy that she hurriedly ordered someone to copy them.

After chatting for another half an hour, I felt that the heat was almost ready, so I got up to say goodbye.
