Li Tan immediately heard the reputation and looked over.

Even if he has not reached the crown, Li Tan's youthful and childishness has gradually faded, and has been replaced by a natural heroic appearance.

He was still riding on the horse, but he turned his head subconsciously. When he saw Xiao Yansui smiling slightly from the carriage and turning his head to the side, he couldn't help but bend the corners of his mouth slightly, showing a smile of reunion after a long absence.

"Sure--" Even though we haven't seen each other for a long time, and even just yelled Xiao Liuniang in front of Xiao Song's powerful guards, when he saw her again, what he blurted out was still the same thing they said when they were young. In the bustling Shangyuan Lantern Market, he said it was a joke and called it a few childish and innocent names.

After a brief pause, Li Tan changed his words: "Xiao Liuniang."

Seeing this, Xiao Yansui couldn't help laughing slightly.

This winter is Xiao Yansui's 16th birthday.

The fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl has just grown up, with delicate eyebrows and eyes, but because of her stature, she has become taller, and the journey has been full of dust, even if it is not hard, food and lodging during the long journey is not as good as staying at home. When Xiao Yansui poked her head out after such a toss, she looked a little too thin.

However, the afterglow of the sunset in the evening was intoxicating. The golden sunlight fell on her face. Xiao Yansui's mouth was still curled up, and she unconsciously squinted her eyes. The whole person seemed to be enveloped in a layer of unclear In the soft light.

Coincidentally, in the afternoon, she was still nestled in the carriage with one hand holding a miscellaneous journal and fell asleep for a long time. She just woke up now. The fuzzy reddish mark that came out of the hole suddenly revealed a rare kind of coquettish and lazy, and when it fell in his eyes, his heart felt soft and messed up.

Immediately, she whispered to herself again, "Actually, I'm not used to people calling me that, but everyone is like this, forget it..."

Li Tan's ears are sharp, but Xiao Yansui's voice is too soft, especially when she smiled slightly, the whispered words just now melted into pieces in the wind, and only the word "Wei Wei" was caught by him. Heard it, but it has become difficult to distinguish.

Xiao Yansui's fingers were still lifting the curtain of the carriage, through the window of the carriage, Xiao Yansui and Li Tan looked at each other for a moment, and after all, the corners of their mouths turned into a sentence, "Long time no see!"

Li Tan couldn't help laughing when he heard this, he drove his horse to the window of Xiao Yansui's carriage, looked down at her slightly, "You're back."

"Yes." Xiao Yansui also smiled.

Xiao Yansui lay on the window of the carriage, and after greeting Li Tan casually, he simply waved to the guard who was standing beside him.

Following her signal, the entire convoy stopped steadily. Xiao Yansui rubbed his itchy side face with one hand with the palm of his hand when he was sleeping. Under his gaze, he jumped out of the carriage.

"Liu Niang!" Xiao Yansui jumped neatly, but Axiu couldn't stop worrying and followed to the door of the carriage.

Xiao Yansui waved his hands to the back, and said with a casual smile, "We've arrived at the gate of Chang'an City, just come down and do some activities."

"This—" Xiao Song's capable guards showed some hesitation for a while.

However, since Xiao Yansui has made a decision, it is not easy to be persuaded by others.

Li Tan didn't care about the guard and the maid, but seeing her standing on the ground so casually while he himself was still riding on the horse, at that moment, he almost instinctively stretched out his hand to pull her on the horse.

It's a pity that after only a moment's hesitation, Xiao Yansui had already walked around, picked a guard at random, asked for a horse, and quickly turned over and sat on it.

Li Tan gently held the rein, feeling an inexplicable sense of loss in his heart, but when he saw that she was riding in front of him again, he couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief. There seemed to be a hint of softness in the eyes.

Xiao Yansui was still holding the rein in her hand, she was wearing light and soft clothes, but her back was always straight, she smiled and waved at the guard, and said leisurely: "I think, maybe I can get home before you guys .”

——After all, I have been away from home for nearly two years. It is obviously unreasonable not to go home at this moment, but to slip away from the place right in front of the house.

However, if it's just riding with Li Tan and talking on the road, it's okay.

What's more, because Xiao Song had voluntarily retired from the core circle of political power in the Tang Dynasty, Xiao Yansui had stayed away from Chang'an City for a long time before. It is as unavoidably eye-catching as in previous years.

The guard looked at her, and then at Li Tan, the third son of the prince who had been silent by the side. There was still a wry smile on his face, and his expression was unpredictable.

Xiao Yansui turned her head to look at Li Tan, and was about to say "Let's go" with a smile, but suddenly there was a loud "Wow" sound from a carriage behind.

Li Tan's eyes widened slightly in surprise, he knew that Mrs. Pei had brought back a little native dog from Zhang Dai's mansion at the time...

Xiao Yansui was dumb for a while, and after a brief explanation with Axiu, she met Li Tan with a knowing face and a smile on her face, and explained with a smile: "It's not the three before, it's specially brought A hound that came back, you can take it out to play later.”

Li Tan naturally nodded, and immediately said: "Okay."

The weather today is fine, the sunset is intoxicating, and the evening wind is also gentle. The two horseshoes ran briskly towards the gate of Chang'an City. From a distance, I saw two gradually shrinking figures.

After leaving the convoy and entering the city gate alone, Xiao Yansui casually raised his head and looked around.

After all, the Tang Dynasty is different from the later generations. Even though Chang'an City is the most prosperous and grand city in the world today, in less than two years, except for a few scattered shops that may have changed hands, the main streets of Chang'an City are actually The change is not big. Looking from the direction of the entrance of the city gate, the market is quite lively, but it still looks familiar from the old days.

When they arrived in Chang'an City, Xiao Yansui and Li Tan reined in at the same time, and slowed down their speed slightly.

The distance between the East Palace and Duke Xu's Mansion is actually not too close, and they are not even on the same street at all, but fortunately, from the direction of entering the city from the gate of the city, the previous section is barely on the way.

After all, he had been away from Chang'an for a long time, and even though Xiao Wu had been tipping him off, Xiao Yansui still knew very little about what was going on in Chang'an.When the two were chatting, Li Tan naturally told her some well-known things that happened recently, Xiao Yansui nodded along the way, and occasionally added a few interesting stories about his life in Shanhai Town.

The two rode horses next to each other, talking and laughing at Yan Yan, but Xiao Yansui suddenly felt extremely sharp eyes staring at him.

She raised her head suddenly, and even Li Tan, after sensing her movement, followed Xiao Yansui's line of sight.

In an exquisite and comfortable carriage, there is Princess Wan'an, who is wearing a plain Taoist uniform and can show a bit of grace and charm in every gesture. She is lifting the curtain of the carriage with one hand, looking over with faint eyes.

When she saw Xiao Yansui reappeared in Chang'an City, her eyes were a bit shocked and unbelievable. However, when she noticed that the young man who was inseparable by Xiao Yansui's side turned out to be Li Tan, then The gloomy eyes turned into undisguised cruelty almost instantly.

From a long distance, Xiao Yansui looked at her for a moment.

The past entanglements of several years ago instantly came to mind. After a while, Xiao Yansui pursed her lips tightly, but deliberately raised the corners of her mouth, showing a smile that was not a smile.
