Princess Jinyang and King Jin were left in the palace naturally by a loving father. Li Yuanying took Pei Shiqi and Mudan and took a leisurely ride back home... and there were spicy millet seeds.
Pei Shiqi looked at the square wooden box in his hand and was speechless: I didn't expect His Majesty to actually give him thirty gold cakes! The key is that there is no use for me to have these. How about sending them to Luoyang for Senior Brother?
Looking at Pei Qi who was in a daze, Mudan lifted the brocade curtain and looked out of the car. The spring breeze is warm, and many people on the roadside have already changed into spring clothes. The East Market is not as lively as the West Market, but the people coming and going are either rich or noble, and it has a unique scene. When I saw someone decorating the side of his face with flowers, the corner of his mouth couldn't help but raise: "It's not as exquisite as the prince's painting!"
"How long can you be a dancer in Prince Teng's Mansion?" Pei Shiqi stopped worrying about the gold nugget, looked at Mudan, and asked softly. His voice was still as cold as ice, and his expression had no ups and downs, neither questioning nor criticizing.
Mudan did not look back, still looking out of the car, and said casually: "Before I met King Teng, I could only cover my face with a gauze. Because I had a birthmark on the side of my face, I was regarded as an unlucky person. Not only did he not dislike it, he also He drew a flower pattern for me with his own hands, and from then on, I no longer covered my face with veils."
Wei Gong also helped to remove the birthmark without leaving even a shallow scar. It’s up to me to choose whether to draw flower mother-of-pearls or not, and what style of flower mother-of-pearls to draw.
"Not only will no one say that I am unknown, but those noble ladies have also begun to draw flowers on the sides of their faces. When I get old and lose my beauty, I can teach other dance moves."
Not to mention, Your Majesty also agreed to Princess Jinyang to practice swordsmanship with me. She is the legitimate princess and the most favored princess!
Pei Shiqi didn't expect this kind of answer. Prince Teng didn't seem that confused... It was definitely not because of the gold nugget in his hand. I won't be swayed by such vulgar things. He said softly: "We can find time to discuss it."
Mudan turned her head in surprise and looked at Pei Qi's cold face. Her temperament was so special that others would ignore her beauty. He crossed his hands and saluted, smiled sweetly and said, "I'm always waiting for you to teach me."
Pei Shiqi nodded slightly: It is undeniable that Peony looks pretty when she smiles.
…
"Your Majesty, Prime Minister Wei is here to visit." As soon as Li Yuanying opened the car door, the attendant Cheng Chubi reported nervously. I couldn't understand Prime Minister Wei's expression, but a warrior's intuition told me that the person coming was evil and menacing!
Li Yuanying jumped out of the car and said with a smile: "Stop your expression, Prime Minister Wei will not demolish Prince Teng's Mansion."
There is no need to ask Tang Fu, Medicine Master or Yu Xiang if they are accompanying him. They know that a certain person will not come out without finishing lunch, so they will not take a bath today.
"Your Majesty, you are welcome!" Tang Jian's magnetic voice came from behind.
Looking along the sound, Li Yuanying saw Tang Maoyue jumping down from the shaft of the car with a particularly flexible and vigorous posture... If someone can do this at the age of sixty, what more can I ask for!
"Don't be anxious, Mr. Tang."
Wei Xuancheng has never won a match against a certain person, so there is no need to worry at all. As for taking action, with Pei Shiqi by his side, he shouldn't have a chance to get up close and punch.
"I just said that the pharmacist should not be allowed to go. He has no problem with fighting, and he is very knowledgeable when discussing important matters." Tang Jian walked up to Li Yuanying and sighed helplessly, "He is not suitable for persuading people unless he speaks rough language."
Li Yuanying couldn't help laughing, because Yaoshigong's car had just stopped. He looked at Cheng Chubi and asked, "How long has Prime Minister Wei been here?"
"An hour." Cheng Chubi suppressed the thought of swearing. He originally thought he would leave after half an hour, but he not only continued to wait, but also had a meal.
It's definitely intentional!
Li Jing, who had just walked over, had three black lines sliding down his forehead. Didn't he say it well yesterday? What kind of trouble is Wei Xuancheng going to make? It's okay to trick yourself, don't drag someone into the water! He crossed his hands and saluted, and said, "Your Majesty, I don't know where Wei Xuancheng comes from."
"Tap-tat-tat" came the sound of horse hoofbeats. Cheng Zhijie threw the reins to Cheng Chubi and said angrily: "No matter what he wants to do, are we still afraid of him?"
If he didn't keep an eye on so many crown princes who were serving outside, he would be at odds with Prince Teng all day long, bullying an eleven-year-old boy, and he would lose his face! Your Majesty indulged Wei Xuancheng too much, so he sent him to Luoyang if it didn't work out, where there were many things to do.
Li Yuanying bowed his hands to the three of them and said with a smile: "If I am not mistaken, I should be here for Sanmenxia or Yunhe Mansion. Wei Gong is devoted to the Tang Dynasty. At most, he just wants to leave his name in the history of Qing Dynasty. He has no other selfish motives."
It doesn't matter what Wei Zheng wants to do, it's up to someone to take the initiative or not. However, it is true that Old Man Wei is a little too arrogant and it is difficult to communicate. To be honest, people will admire a person who is strict, upright, and self-reliant, but they are not willing to interact with him. For example, Hai Qingtian in later generations, no matter how many people recommended him, Zhang Taiyue did not appoint him. The reason is that if the water is clear, there will be no fish, and if the people are careful, there will be no disciples.
What's more, no matter how capable a person is, it is impossible to do everything by himself. The outstanding representative in this regard is the Wuhou who came out of Qishan six times, and died after exhausting himself. He said so and did so. He died of illness in Wuzhangyuan at the age of fifty-four, while King Xuan, who was two years older than him, died at the age of seventy-three.
This does not mean that everyone should be like the light, but one must always understand the truth that going too far is not enough.
Tang Jian, Li Jing, and Cheng Zhijie returned the greeting sideways, followed Li Yuanying, and walked toward the study room in the outer courtyard.
Cheng Chubi and his men arranged the carriage and Aye's horse. When he saw Yu Shinan's carriage, he was confused: Why is Prime Minister Yu here too?
Yu Shinan walked out of the car slowly. Seeing Cheng Chubi's expression, he asked, "Who is coming to the palace again?"
The third son of the Cheng family is a bit out of control in his expression management. He is not even a bit worse than his cunning Aye.
"Prime Minister Wei." Cheng Chubi crossed his hands and said respectfully.
Yu Shinan frowned, patted Cheng Chubi on the shoulder, and said with a smile: "Tang Maoyue, Li Yaoshi and you Aye are also here. What are you worried about? Learn more from you Aye, and the sky will not fall. .”
Cheng Chubi: "..."
Forget it, it's better not to tell Prime Minister Yu that Aye has brought an ax designed by Prince Teng for him and crafted by the Shaofu craftsmen. It's not an iron snowflake ax or a mountain-chopping ax, but a steel-made wood-cutting ax that can be inserted into the waist and used as a concealed weapon.
Not only did Aye have a great time playing it himself, he also selected some people from the Jinwu Guards to create a batch of axes that were the same except for the pattern... The scene of the axes flying together is better than the scene of the arrows flying together. , even more shocking.
"Prime Minister Yu, they are in the study outside." Cheng Chubi followed Yu Shinan and said softly. "I arrived about a quarter of an hour earlier than you. Prime Minister Wei has been here for an hour. I had grilled fish and roasted deer for lunch, and I specifically asked for two cups of vinegar and celery."
Yu Shinan stopped and asked in surprise: "Wei Xuancheng is having dinner at the mansion?"
This is as absurd as Prince Teng converting to Buddhism and becoming a monk!
