The Marquis of Changning hosted a lotus appreciation banquet.

With Li Chengyun's promotion, the Changning Hou Mansion also rose with the tide.

On the day of the banquet, there was a lot of wind, warm and soft, with the fragrance of lotus, bringing coolness to the summer.

On the East Street where the Hou Mansion is located, there is an endless stream of fragrant cars and BMWs, very lively.

When the delicate guests entered the house, it instantly became a beautiful scenery.Either dignified and elegant, or delicate and smart, or glamorous, or elegant, all flowers are compared.

Luo Chengyu muttered: "Is the mansion going to visit the girl for some young master?"

Li Chengyun heard his words, thought for a while, and said: "The only unmarried of the right age are the second child Cheng Chuan and the third child Cheng Zhe, and Cheng Zhe is still in Gyeonggi Camp."

After the words fell, Li Chengzhe appeared in their sight.

"My lord, my concubine." Li Chengzhe walked towards them quickly.

Li Chengyun was surprised and said: "Are you taking a rest today?"

"I received a letter from the mansion, and I asked for a day off today." Li Chengzhe scratched his head naively, against the backdrop of his gradually sun-tanned skin, he looked even more honest, almost changed from before he joined the army.

Li Chengyun said with a meaningful smile: "I should ask for leave today and come back, there is a good thing."

"Ah?" Li Chengzhe looked at him puzzled.

"This lotus appreciation feast held in the mansion is intended to be your blind date with Cheng Chuan." Li Chengyun teased.

Li Chengzhe scratched his head again, "It should be for the sake of the second brother. I am a concubine, and my mother decides to choose a concubine with a similar family background."

Li Chengyun patted him on the shoulder vigorously, and encouraged him: "As long as you become famous, you can choose from any sons and concubines."

Li Chengzhe smiled naively, his personality was much more cheerful than before.

Li Chengyun thought for a moment, then suddenly said: "Chengzhe, are you willing to help me in the Imperial Army's inner camp?"

Regarding the matter that Li Zhaoyi set up a trap to harm him, if it was said that no one in the Forbidden Army knew about it and did not report it, and no one intentionally waited to see his bad luck, why did he not believe it so much?

Most of the outer battalion are iron-blooded men, but the inner battalion is deeply influenced by the inner palace of the imperial city, and there are many people who are careful and thoughtful.

He needs his own people in the inner camp.

Li Chengzhe replied without hesitation: "Your Highness has orders, so don't dare to disobey."

Li Chengyun nodded in satisfaction: "Wait for me to ask General Min for someone."

Not long after, the mansion suddenly became lively.

Li Rong went to take a look, and came back to report: "My lord and concubine, the princess and Princess Qi are here."

Li Chengyun and Luo Chengyu looked at each other.In the past, Xiao Shuhua and Qi Zhen never came to the Changning Hou Mansion to host a banquet.

Not long after, the mansion became more heated.

The prince and several other princes came to Changning Hou's mansion together.

The guests who came to the banquet were all envious of the wealth and honor of the Hou Mansion, and at the same time, some people turned Xiao Jiujiu in their hearts.

Li Chengyun and Luo Chengyu went to the front hall to meet the princes.

The prince said with a smile: "My cousin and his sister-in-law have been married for half a year, and they are still so gluey. It's really enviable."

Li Chengyun curled his lips into a smile, and said: "If you don't get along with the princess, who will you be with?"

The prince was slightly startled, and then continued to smile, "My cousin is still so humorous."

Since the prince detoxified, perhaps for the sake of his heirs, there have been countless royal daughters every night.If one day, even if the prince died on a woman's bed, no one would think it strange.

Luo Chengyu quietly tugged at the corner of Li Chengyun's clothes, Li Chengyun turned his head to look at him, and saw Luo Chengyu's face turned pale, and suddenly became anxious, and said to everyone: "I'm sorry, everyone. The princess is not feeling well, I'll take him first take a break."

After finishing speaking, he took Luo Chengyu and hurried away, taking him to a secluded courtyard.

Luo Chengyu took a look and asked, "Where is this?"

"This is the place where my father lived. After he moved to the Princess Mansion according to the rules, it has been empty all the time, but it has been cleaned all the time. Every time I stay in the mansion, I will live here."

Li Chengyun carefully paid attention to his face, "Are you feeling better now, I was frightened when I saw your face turn pale just now."

Luo Chengyu hesitated for a moment, then approached him, tugged at his sleeve, and looked at him pitifully.

"What's the matter?" Li Chengyun pressed the back of his hand to his forehead in confusion, but it didn't burn.

"A little tired." Luo Chengyu said softly.

In fact, it was because the prince looked at him just now, which made him very uncomfortable.But he was worried that he was too sensitive, and telling Li Chengyun would only cause conflict between him and the prince.

Li Chengyun said nervously: "Go ahead and lie down in the room for a while, I'll send someone to invite a doctor."

"You don't need to ask the doctor, you lie down with me for a while."

"it is good."

Li Chengyun took a cattail fan and fanned them lightly, Luo Chengyu fell asleep after a while.

Seeing his peaceful sleeping face, Li Chengyun felt satisfied, couldn't help smiling, the hand shaking the cattail fan gradually stopped, and fell asleep with him.

As soon as the couple fell asleep, they slept until the banquet was about to start, and they didn't wake up until Madam Chang Ninghou sent someone to look for them.

This time Luo Chengyu brought out two servant girls, Cailing and Caihe, and two young servants, Mu Sheng and Mu Xiao, stayed in the palace.

Cai Ling re-tied Luo Chengyu's hair, Cai He and Li Rong fetched two basins of clean water for them to wipe their faces.

After the two packed up, they went to the front yard to have a banquet, which was long overdue.

Every banquet is full of competitions, not to mention the presence of the prince and several other young princes.

However, Li Chengyun only focused on serving Luo Chengyu's dishes, while Luo Chengyu only focused on watching Li Chengyun drink less, the couple seemed indifferent to other things.

Suddenly, Qi Zhen came in front of them, "Can I sit at the same table with my eldest brother and sister-in-law?"

Li Chengyun said coldly: "Why don't you stay with your mother?"

Qi Zhen's downcast eyes showed disappointment and grievance all over her body, as if she was complaining: I want to get close to my eldest brother and sister-in-law, but you are still very alienated from me.

Luo Chengyu smiled slightly, "Princess, please feel free."

Qi Zhen nodded slightly, and sat down on the other side of Luo Chengyu.

"Sister-in-law, before the banquet started, I didn't see you all the time, so I thought you left early."

"There are so many people today, it's normal not to see them." Luo Chengyu still smiled lightly.

"Sister-in-law, I really realized my mistake, and I'm sorry for what happened before." Qi Zhen's voice had the kind of crying tone.

"Princess, you don't have to keep saying things like knowing your mistakes all the time, it's more appropriate to prove it with practical actions." Luo Chengyu's gaze was thought-provoking.

Qi Zhen hid her hands under the table and clenched her fists. It took a long while before she continued, "Thank you sister-in-law for your teaching."

Luo Chengyu glanced at her in surprise, then turned his head and continued to taste the food Li Chengyun gave him.

The prince suddenly opened his mouth and jokingly said, "I have my cousin and sister-in-law by my side, look at the contented look on my cousin's face."

Being called out suddenly, Li Chengyun was stunned for a moment, then raised the corners of his mouth, and said unhurriedly, "I made the crown prince laugh."

"My cousin always speaks so politely and unfamiliarly." The prince expressed his dissatisfaction, but his tone was friendly.

Marquis Changning Li Donggang and You Rongyan said with a smile, "My lord respects His Highness the Crown Prince."

The prince smiled and praised Chang Ning Houfu, and then continued to speak to Li Chengyun.

Li Chengyun frowned slightly imperceptibly, wondering if it was his illusion, he found that the prince's eyes always fell to his side from time to time.

After eating, Li Chengyun took Luo Chengyu's hand and left the table immediately.

However, Qi Zhen ran after them alone.

"Brother and sister-in-law, I have something to ask." Qi Zhen looked at them with watery eyes, which were full of pleading.

Luo Chengyu asked, "What's the matter?"

Qi Zhen looked around and said anxiously: "Can I find a convenient place to talk?"

Li Chengyun and Luo Chengyu looked at each other, and took Qi Zhen to the secluded courtyard.Li Rong stood guard at the gate of the courtyard, and after picking water chestnuts and lotuses to serve tea, he guarded outside the house.

Qi Zhen's eyes were full of mist, and she said almost pleadingly: "Mother wants to promise me to the crown prince, and now only the eldest brother and sister-in-law can help me."

Li Chengyun was stunned, and suddenly thought that there were quite a lot of examples of brothers and cousins ​​getting married in this era, and his thoughts went astray.

Luo Chengyu frowned and asked, "What exactly is going on?"

Qi Zhen sniffed, "The prince passed a message to his mother, wanting me to be Liang Di. My mother said that marrying the prince, although she is a Liang Di, not a concubine, but the prince promised that when he came to the throne in the future, he would give me the title of Emperor Liang." The position of concubine."

"The princess is right, the crown prince is the heir apparent, why don't you want to?"

"Sister-in-law, I don't like the prince, and the prince has so many women, I don't want to be a child to him." While talking, Qi Zhen burst into tears.

Luo Chengyu looked at Li Chengyun and motioned him to make an idea.

Li Chengyun didn't want to take care of this matter in his heart, but just now at the banquet, the way the crown prince looked at his side could explain it, it turned out that he was looking at Qi Zhen.

"You have something to say." Although Luo Chengyu doesn't like Qi Zhen, but she calls him a sister-in-law, and this matter is related to her whole life, how can they, brothers and sisters, really confront each other because of the previous quarrel? This is completely ignored.

Li Chengyun said with a sullen face, "Don't cry yet."

Qi Zhen sniffed and sobbed softly, "Brother..."

"Now you know you're called brother?" Li Chengyun smiled, "Should you have something to say to us?"

Qi Zhen paused, her eyes dodging.

Li Chengyun said with hatred: "You are my own sister. I think you are young. Although you are unruly and self-willed, you have never really done evil, so I have always let you go. Before you stopped Chengyu's carriage and slapped him. , You should also learn a lesson. I thought you really changed your mind, but it got worse."

Hearing this, Qi Zhen knew that what she had done was already known to him.

"I'm sorry, brother. I shouldn't have conspired with Concubine Zheng. I just wanted to make you look ugly. I didn't expect it to be so serious."

Luo Chengyu's eyes widened, and he reprimanded: "Cheng Yun is your own brother, or your deadly enemy, you want to hurt him like this!"

Qi Zhen cried: "I'm sorry, I thought that my elder brother would only be reprimanded by the emperor's uncle, woo woo."

Li Chengyun was sympathetic to Luo Chengyu, "Because this girl is so angry that she is not worth it."

Qi Zhen was out of breath from crying, her eyes were very red and swollen.

Luo Chengyu sighed softly, and ordered Cailing Caihe to fetch a basin of hot water, and Qi Zhen said, "Don't cry, your eyes are swollen."

"Brother and sister-in-law will you forgive me?"

"In the future, we must put away those careless thoughts that we shouldn't have, and truly learn to be a lady." Luo Chengyu was willing to say that, but he didn't care about it.

"Yeah." Qi Zhen nodded in surprise, crying and laughing.

Luo Chengyu burst out laughing softly, "I'm a bit like a child now."

"That's right, I'm not ready yet." Qi Zhen said expectantly, "Please help me, don't let my mother promise me to the crown prince."

Luo Chengyu thought for a moment, and said, "I'll go and tell the princess, let you stay in the palace for a few days, and we'll discuss the countermeasures carefully."

Qi Zhen said anxiously: "Marriage is a matter of parents' order and matchmaker's words. Will my mother promise me to the prince directly?"

Luo Chengyu said: "Don't worry, one of you is the prince, and the other is the princess. This matter can only be finalized after the emperor and queen."

Qi Zhen nodded reassuringly, "Then I'll go back to the front first, and don't disturb the elder brother and sister-in-law to rest."

Luo Chengyu ordered Cai Ling to send her back to Xiao Shuhua's side.

Li Chengyun took a sip of his cold tea, "If this girl hadn't been desperate, she wouldn't have come to beg us." He still had to get someone to check to see if what she said was true.

"Forget it, as long as she is willing to learn well in the future, she is your own sister after all."

"My daughter-in-law is kind."

"I'm Ai Wu Ji Wu." Luo Chengyu corrected.

Immediately, Li Chengyun grinned and hugged Luo Chengyu into his arms, "Daughter-in-law, please say it again in another way."

Luo Chengyu blushed, pushed him away hard, and said duplicity: "It's so hot."
