Just as Li Shimin and others were standing in the front yard admiring the fireworks feast in the sky.
A Jinwu guard suddenly ran into the front yard with a nervous expression, his eyes quickly scanning the yard.
Then he lowered his head, trotted to Li Shimin, and knelt on one knee.
"I will see your majesty at the end of the day! I will also see you, concubine Shu."
Li Shimin loosened his arm around Concubine Yang's waist and snorted with a dark face:
"Hmph! You'd better have something important to do! Otherwise, I will never give you mercy!"
Jinwu Guard Li Hao suddenly broke into a cold sweat after hearing this!
[Today, I am really unlucky! 】
[Be sure to check the almanac before going out! 】
【If there is a future! 】
In this short period of time this afternoon, because of his duty, Li Hao first stopped a man from Lantian County who had a good reputation in the military, but he was met with disgrace!
As it turned out, that incident just happened not long ago!
Seeing that there was such a big commotion next door, in order to make up for his fault, he took the initiative to take a few subordinates with him and go over to check it out.
It turned out that it was okay if we didn't investigate, but when we did, we found out something was wrong.
He can't even think of it now!
How favored is that man from Lantian County, and how deep his background is!
How could the Queen personally bring His Highness the Prince, His Highness the King of Yue, and His Highness the King of Jin to visit!
...
Li Hao felt that he was really unlucky today.
Normally this was just a once-in-a-lifetime report, a simple announcement. I never thought that it would ruin His Majesty's good deeds!
Disturbing His Majesty's mood!
Li Hao grimaced, raised his fists and said cautiously:
"Reporting to Your Majesty, the general has just received news that the Queen, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, His Royal Highness the King of Yue, and His Highness the King of Jin are currently guests at the male residence in Lantian County!"
After speaking, Li Hao lowered his head and wiped the sweat from his forehead.
Li Shimin was stunned for a while when he heard this, and suddenly felt like he had been caught and raped in bed.
In order to prevent today's trip from being misunderstood by Guanyin.
Li Shimin deliberately made up this afternoon a reason for being busy with government affairs, saying that he wanted to handle government affairs alone in Ganlu Hall!
For this reason, he deliberately left Wuji in the Manlu Hall, just to prevent anyone from revealing the matter!
Li Shimin frowned and said coldly:
"How did you learn about this?"
Li Hao trembled when he heard this.
He lowered his head and stammered:
"The general just heard the noise and wanted to go next door to check for safety reasons. As a result, he happened to meet Cao Chong, the general who was escorting the empress out of the palace!"
Li Shimin's face turned even darker when he heard this, and the last trace of luck disappeared with the words of the man in front of him who had been stabbed a thousand times!
He could think of it with his toes. If nothing else happened, Maid Guanyin must have known that he was at Empress Xiao's place by now!
If it weren't for the fact that Concubine Yang and Empress Xiao were by his side, Li Shimin would have wanted to give Li Haolai a few kicks if he had to worry about his face!
Li Shimin looked at Li Hao who was kneeling on the ground and said through gritted teeth:
"I understand, please step back first."
Hearing this, Li Hao felt as if he had been granted amnesty. He shouted, bowed his body, and backed away. He did not turn around and left the front yard until he was close to the courtyard gate.
After Li Hao left, Concubine Yang Shu sent a blessing to Li Shimin.
"Your Majesty, when I came here with Ke'er, I didn't report to the Queen in advance. I want to take Ke'er to the next door and confess to the Queen in person."
As soon as these words came out, the front hall instantly became quiet, and even the roar from the courtyard next door suddenly disappeared at this moment!
Li Shimin raised his head and looked at the dark sky, guessing that Guanyin must have stopped the fireworks in the mansion next door because she received a warning from below.
Looking around, he saw that Empress Xiao and Li Ke were also looking towards him.
Li Shimin puffed up his chest, stretched out his hand to help Concubine Shu up, smiled and patted her palm, and said softly:
"Today is Mrs. Xiao's birthday banquet. You and Ke'er should stay here to accompany Mrs. Xiao. I will go over in a while and explain the situation to Maid Guanyin."
When Concubine Yang Shu heard Li Er say he was leaving, she couldn't help but lower her head, her eyes full of sadness.
Seeing this, Li Shimin gently squeezed Concubine Yang's little hand and said softly:
"My dear concubine, today is Mrs. Xiao's birthday. I allow you to stay here tonight and reminisce with Mrs. Xiao! You can go back to the palace tomorrow! Then I will accompany you well!"
Concubine Yang Shu's eyes lit up when she heard this, she raised her head and said happily:
"really?"
Li Shimin smiled and nodded.
.......
On the other side, in the front yard of the Qin Mansion, as the last fireworks finished blooming, Qin Ming reluctantly let go of Princess Yuzhang's smooth little hands.
After this fireworks show, Qin Ming can be said to have gained a lot!
Except at the beginning, after being forcibly hugged by the three princesses of the Tang Dynasty.
His relationship with Princess Yuzhang also made some breakthroughs.
Doesn’t all love start with holding hands?
If we hold hands this time, maybe we can put our arms around our waist next time we meet, and then we can hug each other, and then we can touch each other, and then...
What's more important is that holding hands this time gave Qin Ming confidence.
In his opinion, if Princess Yuzhang didn't like him at all, she wouldn't have allowed him to hold her hand and watch the entire fireworks show in front of his sisters!
Of course, in addition to Qin Ming's affair with Yu Zhang, he also did not neglect Princess Changle and Princess Chengyang.
Although the embrace was short-lived, this was the Tang Dynasty after all, not the open era of later generations.
What's more, of these two princesses, one is his sister-in-law and the other is his sister-in-law!
So after a brief moment of embarrassment.
Qin Ming began to use his brains to tell them old jokes, which made the three princesses cover their mouths and giggle.
In the darkness, Qin Ming let go of Princess Yuzhang's little hand, tilted his head and asked softly:
"are you hungry?"
Princess Yuzhang blushed and hummed softly.
Princess Changle stood on the other side of Qin Ming. When she heard him whispering to Yu Zhang, she couldn't help but pursed her lips, turned her back to Qin Ming and snorted:
"Brother Ming, you are partial! You only know how to ask Sixth Sister if she is hungry? You don't even ask if Lixian and I are hungry! I'm ignoring you!"
Hearing this, Princess Chengyang reached out and took Princess Changle's arm, and also snorted at Qin Ming!
"Humph, I'm ignoring you!"
Princess Yuzhang's face turned red when she heard this.
For a moment, I didn't know how to help my lover explain to the fifth sister.
Qin Ming smiled at Princess Yuzhang and told her not to worry.
Then he turned to Princess Changle and Princess Chengyang, bowed, and said with a sincere face:
"It's my mistake. I dare to ask your two noble princesses, are you hungry? Do you want to eat?"
Princess Changle and Princess Chengyang heard this and said in unison:
"Not sincere!"
After saying that, the two women looked at each other and burst into laughter!
Qin Ming and Princess Yuzhang also laughed.
After laughing, Qin Ming led them to Queen Changsun.
Queen Changsun of the Qin and Ming Dynasties saluted and said:
"Auntie, the fireworks are all finished, let's go inside and eat."
Queen Changsun glanced at a few people, then smiled and nodded.
