Princess Jinyang of the Tang Dynasty

Li Mingda stared straight at Fang Yizhi.

Naturally, Fang Yizhi couldn't look directly at Li Mingda, he lowered his eyes and his face was calm.

It's strange, when I usually see him saluting, I feel a little arrogant.On the contrary, now that he was standing there like this, he suddenly felt a little humble.

"I'll give you a chance to take back what I said before." Li Mingda said.

"Words are like splashed water. How can you take them back? The princess has already heard it but pretends not to hear it. Isn't it deceitful?"

Fang Yizhi obviously has no regrets about what he said just now.

So Li Mingda didn't understand where his humility came from. He thought it was because he regretted what he said, but now it seems that it is not the case.

Due to his doubts, Li Mingda couldn't help looking at Fang Yizhi curiously. He was wearing a purple gold brocade silk robe today, which was tailored just right, making his figure slender and his face bright and beautiful.

This person looks like a white cloud above the blue sky, not dazzling or obtrusive, but not in harmony with other things.

Li Mingda knew very well that even if he directly denied it, Fang Yizhi still wouldn't believe her in his heart, and most likely looked down on her because of this, thinking that she was a cowardly princess.Li Mingda actually doesn't care about being ashamed of herself, but she can't lose the face of her father who taught her to grow up.

"As you said, the eyes and ears are sharper than ordinary people, but they are still not as sharp as you." Li Mingda said.

Fang Yi hastened to salute, "In terms of seeing and hearing, Yi Zhi is far inferior to the princess. The reason why he came to know this matter was just by chance. But princess, now that the princess has asked, Yi Zhi should treat each other frankly and sincerely. If there are any abrupt words, please forgive me, princess."

Li Mingda: "Forget it, it's rare for you to be willing to tell the truth. It's not unrecognizable that I have sharp eyes and ears, but I don't want to make too much publicity and make people exaggerate. Just like me copying Feibai body, although it looks a little similar, but in the end The strength of the pen is not as vigorous and domineering as that of the saint, but when this incident was reported, it became "like a book written in one person, it is difficult to distinguish."

Fang Yi nodded straight, and naturally understood Li Mingda's worries, not to mention that if her ability is really publicized, it will be more important than copying Feibai body.If people around know that she can hear and see, they will naturally be afraid. Everyone has secrets, and they are also afraid that their secrets will be known, so they will instinctively choose to stay away from the princess.Even the sage, when discussing important and secret matters with the courtiers, would probably feel taboo when he thought of this, so that he would reduce the frequency of going to the Lizheng Hall.

Princess Jinyang lost her mother since she was a child. If she experiences people around her treating her differently and deliberately staying away from her, no one will be able to express the pain in her heart.

"I would like to swear this matter with my life. I will keep my mouth shut and not tell anyone else." After Fang Yi said it, he raised his hand to swear.

Li Mingda hurriedly stopped him: "You don't have to be so serious, I naturally believe in you, and based on your status in the hearts of all the children in Chang'an City, I also know that you are a person who keeps your word."

Li Mingda held his chin, accepted the previous princess' behavior, and smiled at Fang Yizhi with his usual amiable look: "Why don't we be friends."

to be friends?

Fang Yizhi's eyes froze for a moment, and then he looked at Li Mingda, just in time to meet Li Mingda's crescent-shaped smiling eyes, and then his gaze froze for a second time, but soon he controlled himself to look away. Pull back, glance away.

The eyes of Princess Jinyang are like the shimmering light reflected by the bright moon on the green lake in summer night. To Fang Yizhi, it is more eye-catching and intoxicating than any dazzling things.

The poems and books that have been full for a long time are useless, because there are no words or verses that can describe the feeling that his heart is shaking now.

"Tea instead of wine." Li Mingda picked up the teacup at hand, held it straight at Fang Yizhi, and drank the whole cup of tea conveniently, then flipped the cup upside down, and showed Fang Yizhi her sincerity.

Tian Hanshu was already standing next to Fang with a tray, and on the tray was a green jade tea bowl, which contained emerald green tea soup.

Fang Yi was slightly taken aback, probably because he didn't expect Princess Jinyang to have such a bold side. He thought that the princesses raised in the palace, apart from being unruly and arrogant, live too delicately and like to find faults.This Princess Jinyang gave him too many different understandings today.

Fang Yizhi sighed in his heart, picked up the tea bowl, and just like Li Mingda, drank the tea soup in the teacup in one gulp.

"Take the cup away, remember that you are my friend's promise." Li Mingda held back his smile slightly, looked at the house seriously, and took a look, which was both a favor and a warning.She wanted Fang Yizhi to understand, and to remember her oath.If they are together, they are friends. If they are not, then she is someone he cannot afford to offend.

Fang Yi felt Li Mingda's deliberate 'equal attention to kindness and power' towards him, and couldn't help but smile, he hurriedly lowered his head and cupped his hands to cover up this emotion, and then thanked Li Mingda in advance in a very serious tone , and then clutching the jade tea bowl in his hand, he stood in the center of the ground and continued to wait for Li Mingda's question.

"Since we're friends, sit down. You're welcome." Li Mingda asked someone to prepare a mat, and after seeing Fang Yi sat down, he asked him how he knew he had sharp eyes and ears.

Fang Yizhi first explained Li Mingda's most puzzling question, "In the case of Qi Changshi, when the princess was in the house, the princess did not send someone to monitor, so she knew the conversation between the maid and her sister-in-law. In the case of the deputy envoy of the Japanese state, the princess could hear it on the wall. The remaining bit of plaster. And outside of Anzhou City, Yizhi occasionally saw the princess visiting the city gate, and then observed that the princess looked at Roast Luosu with the same eyes..."

"You are amazing, and you can see the way in this matter."

Li Mingda asked him what he was talking about when he came to Anzhou City.

"This matter is a bit complicated, and it involves some things that cannot be said to the outside world, but we can talk about it after the princess prays in Ling'an Temple." Fang Yizhi explained lightly.

Li Mingda looked at Fang Yizhi with a serious face, and when he mentioned this matter, his face was a little dark, guessing that this matter might not be simple.

She nodded, "Since praying, sincerity is the most important thing, no matter how big or small the occasion is. I really should meditate these two days, and you will tell me after I finish praying."

Fang Yi directly agreed.

Li Mingda then asked Fang Yizhi if you have anything else to say.

Fang Yizhi stood up again, and wanted to salute Li Mingda before speaking.

Li Mingda said: "If we say we are friends, we are friends. In private, you don't have to be so polite to me. You can say what you want between friends. You always salute back and forth. If you are uncomfortable, I am also uncomfortable."

"If the princess asked me to keep it a secret, I will definitely keep it a secret. And if I know the princess's secret, I also ask the princess to keep it a secret." Fang Yi said straight.

The words were a bit convoluted, Li Mingda took a moment to understand what Fang Yizhi meant, and nodded in agreement.

The two said their goodbyes immediately, so they put an end to their guesses.

In the evening, Li Ke specially came to pick up Li Mingda and invited her to return home with him.

"I won't go, after thinking about what the third brother said is true, the cook in the princess mansion cooks delicious food, I should enjoy it here."

Li Ke was puzzled, and asked amusedly, "Before you said that you beat that cook until he couldn't get out of bed."

"If I want to eat his food, he has to eat it." Li Mingda said aggressively.

"Hey, since when did our son be so 'understanding'." Li Ke laughed, he quite liked Li Mingda's arrogant appearance, which was so rare.

Li Mingda waved his hands back to the left and right, and then said to Li Ke: "I heard that Concubine Pei would like to invite some capable and talented sons and daughters from other worlds, but is it true?"

Li Ke blinked, with an unnatural smile on his lips, "Sis, this is not something you should ask. You also know that this place is our aunt's residence. It's their business to make friends with them. We can't intervene." hand."

"Anzhou is under your jurisdiction, you will not be unclear." Li Mingda said.

"Sis, our aunt is not as kind as you see now." Although there was no one in the room, Li Ke looked around instinctively, and said to Li Mingda in a low voice, "Be kind to everyone. She is not kind, but she is only obedient to Prince Consort Pei. If you say something unpleasant, even if her ribs were broken by Prince Consort Pei, she would still be willing to defend Prince Consort Pei from the sword."

Li Mingda nodded as if he had realized something, "I understand a bit when you say that, why she would be so stupid to talk to me in person about the cook, because the cook I hired has something to do with Concubine Pei , she cares about it."

"Yes, then you have offended our aunt, why don't you follow me back to the house?"

"No, I will go to Ling'an Temple after staying for two more days. I won't bother you anymore." Li Mingda waved his hand and refused, then asked Li Ke, "I'm curious about another thing. At such a young age, none of you are surprised? Does he have any tricks to keep his face?"

Li Ke laughed, "I've never heard of this. It should be innate. I heard that his father, Pei Ji, is also a person who tolerates aging, but he looks ten years younger than his peers. Pei's son-in-law follows his father, even more Even some of them can be explained.”

Li Mingda nodded and didn't ask any more questions.After sending away Li Ke, Fang Yizhi and others, she went to see Li Yuqiong later to inquire about his condition.

Li Yuqiong originally had a sickly face and was not very good-looking, but when Li Mingda came, his expression became even more unhappy.

"Why didn't you go with your third brother?"

As soon as Li Mingda heard it, he understood that she knew that he had requested to live in Li Ke's house, so he was not annoyed, and smiled tepidly: "The third brother is very good, but he also misses my aunt, so he is not willing to leave. "

"You have a conscience," Li Yuqiong laughed, so that Li Mingda didn't have to visit him all the time, "I've been sick for a long time, and there's nothing new about it. You don't need to look at it, so you don't get sick. Playing in Fuchu, don't be polite."

Li Mingda agreed, and when he heard that Prince Consort Pei was back, Li Mingda yawned hurriedly.Sure enough, Li Yuqiong immediately dismissed Li Mingda, and waited for Prince Consort Pei to come over with high spirits.

"My aunt is so attached to Prince Consort Pei, I'm afraid she will be easily bullied." Although Li Mingda doesn't know what Fang Yizhi is investigating this time, he can vaguely feel that the matter is related to the Princess Mansion, otherwise Fang Yizhi would not advise him Stay in the princess mansion.Consort Pei is very suspicious, Li Mingda is naturally worried that Li Yuqiong will be used.

Tian Hanshan: "The love between men and women is generally like this. One is willing to fight, and the other is willing to suffer. Outsiders must not interfere casually. It is easy to be disgusted by both of them, and make a fuss."

Li Mingda raised his eyebrows and smiled, "So troublesome?"

"Your lord hasn't discussed marriage yet, so naturally he doesn't know the beauty of it. When you get older, you will understand when it's time to discuss marriage." Tian Hanxi said.

Li Mingda thought for a while, "If it's like my aunt, I'd rather not have it."

……

Three days later, Ling'an Temple.

Early in the morning, the temple was secretly martial law, and the internal and external investigations were conducted three times.

After Li Mingda prayed in the temple in his fine clothes, he listened to the abbot's advice and fasted for another three days in the temple to be the most effective, so Li Mingda chose to stay in the temple.Because it is not good to keep the people from burning incense, the guards are only ordered to martial law in the small courtyard where they live, and other places can be opened as usual the next day.

After breakfast the next morning, Li Mingda sat on the futon, twirling Buddhist beads and reciting Buddhist scriptures.

Not long after, I heard noises outside, loud shouts.Afterwards, Tian Hanshu sent someone to investigate, and there was a reply soon.

"A lot of people made trouble outside, and even broke the abbot's head."
