Flower garden.
The vocal music is exuberant, the singing and dancing are charming, and it makes people's blood flow.
However, at this moment, all the attention of the guests who were fascinated by beauty were attracted by the two people in the corner.
Even a look of shock.
The third son of the Li family, and His Highness the Eleventh?
In the corner, Li Ziye noticed dozens or hundreds of glances from behind, but his expression remained as calm as before.
The strength of Sheniu is that no matter what situation it encounters, it is never embarrassed.
On the other hand, Mu Qing, being watched by so many people and still on such an occasion, had an extremely stiff expression on his face, and he wanted to kick the person in front of him away.
He was drinking well alone, how could he meet this annoying guy.
Just come and be so high-profile, as if you're afraid that others won't recognize him.
"Your Highness, what's wrong with you? You don't seem to be in a good mental state."
Li Ziye picked up the jug, poured himself a glass of wine consciously, and then drank it all in one gulp. He said grandly, "It's been my fault that I haven't visited His Highness for so long since I returned to the capital. I'll punish myself with one drink."
On the side, Yu Qingxuan saw this, took the wine bottle, and filled the wine bottle for his young master again.
"Second glass of wine, I would like to pay tribute to His Highness. In the four years since I came to the capital, I have not met His Highness many times, but each time I have a deep memory."
Li Ziye raised his glass and said with emotion, "To be disrespectful, I hope Your Highness will not take offense. In fact, in my heart, I have long regarded Your Highness as a friend. Ever since His Highness became a beauty in anger four years ago, I Then you know that His Highness is different from other royal dignitaries. Your Highness is a person who values feelings above all else."
After saying that, Li Ziye drank the wine in the glass again and looked at the eleventh prince in front of him with burning eyes, his expression was so sincere.
His words were not completely nonsense. At least, when Qingqing came to the city and was accused of marrying to the eldest prince, the eleventh prince dared to face the will of Mu Yuan and Emperor Shang for him. This seemingly impulsive behavior really made He was impressed.
This was also the reason why he never attacked Mu Qing after defeating the third prince and the eldest prince.
Mu Qing is different from those two princes.
In fact, Mu Qing is more suitable to be an emperor than Mu Bai, a lump of wood. He has some scheming, knows how to be forbearing, but also dares to stand up at critical moments. He is not the kind of old fox who can hide everything in his heart.
Of course, it is inappropriate to make this comparison with Mu Bai, because even individuals are more thoughtful than Mu Bai.
"Professor Li is overly praised."
After Mu Qing finished the glass of wine, she felt the gazes around her and said somewhat unnaturally, "How about we talk somewhere else?"
"Change place?"
Li Ziye looked slightly startled and asked in surprise, "At this time, except for places like this, restaurants and teahouses seem to have closed long ago. Where are we going?"
"Let's have a private room upstairs."
Mu Qing thought for a while and suggested.
"Let me ask."
Li Ziye put down the wine glass in his hand, turned around and shouted loudly, "Hua Gu, are there any private rooms upstairs? I want one, the biggest one!"
"Yes, yes!"
At the back of the hall, Hua Gu, who was wearing heavy makeup, walked out and said with an apologetic smile, "I will bring two distinguished guests up here."
In the spotlight, Mu Qing stood up with an embarrassed look on her face and followed Hua Gu and the guy next to her upstairs.
Behind the three of them, Yu Qingxuan stepped forward to follow. At this moment, he couldn't help but admire his young master's shamelessness. He visited the brothel in such a high-profile manner that he was the only one in the world.
Soon, under the leadership of Hua Gu, the three of them arrived at a private room on the second floor. The elegant, quiet and luxurious room looked expensive at first glance.
However, the two men present were both respectable people, and they were not short of money.
"Okay, Hua Gu, please go out first. I will talk to His Highness about something."
In the room, Li Ziye glanced at the woman in front of him and said, "Don't let anyone disturb us."
"Okay, okay, then His Highness will discuss things with Young Master Li. I will take my leave first." Hua Gu responded nervously and hurried out of the room.
Hua Gu left, and the room suddenly became quiet.
"Professor Li, you have hurt me."
Seeing that no one else was around, Mu Qing had a wry smile on his face and said, "Once word spreads about the prince's going in and out of the land of fireworks, those old guys in the court will definitely be upset, especially since it's still wartime."
"In the moment of excitement, I forgot about it."
Li Ziye looked apologetic and responded, "Speaking of wartime, why didn't His Highness lead the troops to go to war this time?"
"Whenever I mention this, I get really angry."
Mu Qing's face darkened and he said, "The war has begun, and our great merchant is in short supply of generals and troops. It stands to reason that my father should have sent me out long ago, but until now, I have not received the order from my father. .”
"It's definitely a bit strange."
When Li Ziye heard the eleventh prince's words, he looked suspicious and responded, "Perhaps Your Majesty has other considerations."
"With the current situation, what else can we consider?"
Mu Qing said dejectedly, "The troops from the Three Routes of Mobei marched straight in. Except for King Donglin, the other King Wus have already gone out to fight or are on standby in the military camp. The generals of Dashang are obviously stretched thin. I think that my ability to lead troops is not as good as that of several others." King Wu, however, is much stronger than ordinary generals, and I don’t understand why my father still refuses to let me lead troops on expeditions.”
"His Highness' ability to lead troops is well known to everyone, and His Majesty must also know it."
Li Ziye raised the wine glass on the table and said seriously, "Your Highness is waiting. Sooner or later, His Majesty will send His Highness to go on an expedition. I believe it won't be long."
"Learn some good words from Li."
Mu Qing picked up the wine glass in front of her and drank the wine in one gulp.
"I remember that His Highness was the first among all the princes to be crowned king, except for the eldest prince."
Li Ziye put down the wine glass in his hand and said, "This shows that His Highness is still highly regarded by His Majesty."
"It's not worth mentioning."
Mu Qing sighed softly and replied, "It is easier for a prince to be crowned king. Besides, the reason why I was crowned king before the other brothers was not because my father valued me highly, but because I followed him at the age of sixteen. The army marched south and north, and the military exploits it gained over the years forced my father to make me king first."
Respect?
Origin is the most important thing in the royal family. How could a prince born from an ordinary concubine be respected?
"That further proves that His Highness' abilities are outstanding and beyond the reach of ordinary people."
Li Ziye smiled and said, "I believe that this time, after His Highness leads the army, he will be able to help Dashang defeat the Mobei army and achieve unparalleled military exploits. By then, His Majesty will still have to grant His Highness something."
At this point, Li Ziye's tone suddenly paused, as if he realized that he had said something wrong, and said apologetically, "Your Highness, I'm sorry, I forgot that being crowned king is the highest reward. Your Highness has no more titles."
