After the prosperous Tang Dynasty

Li Tan naturally noticed Xiao Wu's complexion from the very beginning.However, he just glanced at Xiao Wu inadvertently, smiled gently, but said nothing.

As for Xiao Yansui, when she turned her head, she opened her eyes slightly when she saw the distorted expression on Xiao Wu's face. Anyway, the two of them had been fighting since they were young, and they never had any differences. He stretched out his hand and poked it, and asked, "What's wrong with you?"

"..." Taking advantage of his sister not paying attention, Xiao Wu waited for Li Tan to look at him bitterly, but he didn't say directly about Xiao Yansui's question, but just shook his head vaguely, "It's okay. .”

On one side are good friends and playmates since he was a child, and on the other side is his cousin, Zhang Dai had no choice but to help each other, pretending he didn't see them.

But Xiao Yansui never thought that in front of her, Xiao Wu and Li Tan could still come and go like this. Seeing that Princess Wan'an is not in the palace now, she also rested. After thinking about it, I just sat there quietly, as if no one else was there, and because it was cold outside at night just now, I casually drank some hot tea. The hot tea with a slightly bitter aroma flowed down my throat to my stomach, warm and warm, In an instant, the whole person's heart felt ironed.

After a while, Xuanzong, who had become more and more old, finally walked in personally with the graceful, charming and beautiful Concubine Yang. Almost instantly, Xiao Yansui raised his head and looked over without blinking.

——Before, Xiao Yansui had already met Concubine Shou. However, for the current Concubine Yang Gui, thinking of the name of one of the four ancient Chinese beauties on her head, Xiao Yansui couldn't help but think. To watch again.

It's a pity that at today's palace banquet, Princess Yuzhen didn't seem to bring Li Bai in again...

Behind Xuanzong and Concubine Yang, apart from Gao Lishi who had always been by Xuanzong's side and who was almost inseparable except when he was ordered to go out to do errands, another woman in gorgeous palace attire was actually Princess Wan'an.

Xiao Yansui, who was still admiring Concubine Yang's grace and grace, happened to meet Princess He Wan'an's eyes.

Xiao Yansui cheered up instantly, and at the same time secretly became alert in her heart.

Princess Wan'an actually came in from Xuanzong's side, that is to say, she should have been with Xuanzong just now. As one of the most favored princesses in Xingqing Palace, her real name is well-deserved...

When Xiao Yansui withdrew her gaze, of course Princess Wan'an saw her in the crowd at a glance.

It's just that, in the presence of such a large audience where Xuanzong is present, even Princess Wan'an would not dare to suddenly change her face and attack Xiao Yansui at this time.

After seeing Xiao Yansui, Princess Wan'an naturally caught a glimpse of Xiao Wu, Li Tan of the East Palace, and Zhang Dai of the Duke of Yan who were sitting with Xiao Yansui.

The three young gentlemen are all about the same age. Although they come from different backgrounds, they cannot be separated from the royal relatives, aristocratic families, etc. Xiao Yansui and the three of them are obviously very close to each other.

Princess Wan'an still had a smile on her face, but the nails in her hand were pinched directly into her palm. The dull pain of skin rupture and bleeding shocked her whole body, and instantly suppressed the tyranny and anger in her heart. Furious, he continued to follow Xuanzong steadily, and only after Xuanzong and Concubine Yang took their seats, did he sit down next to him almost next to Prince Li Heng.

Gao Lishi's slightly lowered eyes followed Princess Wan'an to Xiao Yansui, and when he saw Li Tan who was talking in a low voice with Xiao Yansui, he seemed to pause for a moment, but quickly retracted it , as if nothing had been noticed.

"Princess Wan'an is here." Xiao Yansui whispered.

Hearing her words, Li Tan naturally turned his head and leaned over, nodded slightly, and replied in a low voice: "It's been a few years, something happened to Princess Wan'an before, and there were a lot of gossips. ...Later, she lived directly in the Taoist temple, but the rumors of the past have long since disappeared, and judging by the current situation, I don't know if the saint will let her live in the palace again..."

It happened so many years ago, and Li Tan actually heard about it. He probably felt that it was inappropriate for Xiao Yansui to mention it, so he deliberately skipped it vaguely.

When Xiao Yansui heard it just now, she was stunned for a moment, but after a while, she came back to her senses instantly. Speaking of which, the incident with Princess Wan'an was still somewhat related to her, but this incident There is no need to tell Li Tan anymore...

Although Xiao Yansui and Li Tan spoke very softly, Xiao Wu and Zhang Dai sat next to them, especially Xiao Wu, who had been working hard for a long time, and his eyes did not move away from his sister and Li Tan However, now seeing the two of them getting together to whisper again, they couldn't help but keep looking up, wishing to put their ears over to listen carefully.

Apart from Xiao Wu and Zhang Dai, after all, there are other people not far away, so Xiao Yansui and Li Tan reserved what they said at the moment, so they didn't care how many questions Xiao Wu heard. .

On the other hand, Zhang Dai, after hearing that the two of them were discussing Princess Wan'an, couldn't help but glanced curiously at Xuanzong's side, but didn't see anything particularly strange, so he quickly looked away.

On the other side, no matter if it was Mrs. Pei who was sitting with a few wives who had a good relationship, or Xiao Heng who was sitting with Du Erlang and Zhao Junzhuo in another quiet corner, they couldn't help looking at their little girl. Float over.

Xiao Wu has nothing to say, this is his own family, Zhang Dai has nothing to say, Princess Ningqing's own son, the young man of Duke Yan's mansion, and has played with Xiao's brothers and sisters since he was a child, so there is nothing to say Speaking of which, there is only one more Li Tan, who was born in the East Palace and is the third son of the crown prince, but he does not receive the slightest attention from the crown prince Li Heng.

Now, he sits with Xiao Yansui so logically, even though he is the nephew of Princess Ningqin, he still looks particularly abrupt...

After Xiao Heng saw this scene, he couldn't help thinking of how Xiao Yansui seemed to have some friendship with Li Tan back then. Obviously, the two of them hadn't gotten along very much. For a while, Xiao Heng's mood was particularly complicated and unspeakable. The eyes didn't blink for a long time.

Looking at Xiao Heng, and seeing Xiao Yansui following his line of sight, Du Erlang raised his eyebrows involuntarily.

Turning his head again, he found that his friend Zhao Junzhuo had a similar expression, and Du Erlang suddenly felt speechless.

——Xiao Heng is Xiao Liuniang's elder brother anyway, Zhao Junzhuo has never been to Chang'an City before the imperial examination, what kind of excitement is he joining in, and, looking at the slightly trembling eyes, he seems to be more devoted than Xiao Heng ...

In the subsequent palace banquet, some singers and dancers were good at singing and dancing, and they showed off their skills one after another with the help of wine.The Tang Dynasty originally advocated these things, and these high-ranking ministers naturally had no burden. When they stood in the center of the hall, the original musicians and dancers were squeezed to the corners instead. And never stopped.

The division of seats in the Mid-Autumn Palace Banquet is actually not too strict. The other people are basically divided according to their status, relatives, and distance. Only Xuanzong and Concubine Yang are seated high. Nearby were several favorite ministers, Prince Li Heng, and Princess Wan'an who seemed to squeeze in suddenly.

The gazes of Xiao Yansui and Princess Wan'an almost inevitably collided with each other several times, but at this moment, both sides looked away from each other tacitly.

Princess Wan'an felt anxious, but due to her current position, she couldn't vent it at all.

Xiao Yansui's gaze was sizing up those people around Xuanzong one by one.

Needless to say, Concubine Yang Gui, she had met Prince Li Heng before, and she didn't know what happened. He seemed to be in a good mood, and he didn't have the same strong smile that he used to have a few years ago.

As for Li Linfu, she still remembers that she and Xiao Song were at odds in the early years, but at least they didn't make each other's stumbling blocks come to light.

On Li Linfu's face was a pair of half-length sideburns, which is the type of beard common to officials nowadays. However, according to Xiao Yansui, it was far inferior to her grandfather's rather elegant and white beard. Moreover, Li Linfu The expression on his face was too solemn, and compared with the relaxed and lively atmosphere at the palace banquet today, it seemed a little gloomy - obviously in Xiao Song's words, this person is actually quite scheming, good at flattering, and Xuanzong's favored official...

But the one sitting next to Li Linfu was a fat man with a rough face and a rather strange face.

Xiao Yansui was stunned for a moment, staring at the other person's figure, which was obviously taller and more fertile than others, as well as the face with high cheekbones and browbones, and some exotic barbarian characteristics, and suddenly had a guess in his mind.

She couldn't help but gently tugged on Li Tan's sleeve, and asked in a low voice, "Who is that person?"

Li Tan only took a glance, and immediately replied softly: "Fanyang, Pinglu, and Hedong's Jiedushi, Anlu Mountain."

Xiao Yansui's eyes even changed for an instant when the speculation in his heart fell to the ground.

Compared with the legendary Concubine Yang Gui and the inexplicable Princess Wan'an, the name An Lushan was really deafening when I was really in the Tianbao period of the Tang Dynasty, which was still singing and dancing.

Compared with the flames of war, the broken mountains and rivers, and the displacement of the people, those beautiful beauties who have also left a strong mark in history look so pale.

The ministers who are good at singing and dancing in the center of the main hall have changed. An Lushan, who is very good at flattery, will naturally not let go of such an opportunity to please Xuanzong and Concubine Yang. Looking for an opportunity, An Lushan turned to Li Linfu for instructions. After a while, after getting a slight nod from the other party, he stood up directly from his seat, first paid homage to his foster mother Concubine Yang Guifei and Xuanzong, and then he was about to perform his famous Hu Xuanwu.

Xiao Yansui squeezed the cup in his hand, because he unintentionally exerted too much force, his fingers even showed a little bluish white.

Li Tan gently held her hand, put down the cup, then lowered his voice and asked with concern: "What's wrong?"
