The dawn bell rang throughout Chang'an, waking up the silent residents of Chang'an.
Ji Song was also awakened by the sound of the bell. He rubbed his still swollen head, looked at the surrounding environment, and found that he was in a luxurious room.
Ji Song is no stranger here. This room and the entire courtyard were reserved for him by Princess Pingyang. He has stayed there several times before.
Perhaps hearing the movement in the room, the door was opened, and two maids aged fifteen or sixteen came in.
"Master Song is awake, please change the clothes of the slaves!" After saying that, he stepped forward and started to arrange Ji Song's clothes.
Ji Song didn't refuse because it was useless. If they refused, they would have to kneel down and cry. Ji Song was so annoyed last time, so they simply let them do it.
After everything was neatly dressed, Ji Song asked, "Where is my aunt?"
"The princess has already gotten up, and she has just given orders that if you wake up, she will ask you to go to the kitchen to make breakfast for her!" A maid covered her mouth and snickered.
Maybe he felt something was wrong and immediately held back.
Ji Song rolled his eyes and said angrily: "You really treat me as a cook! That's okay! Let her be proud of it for once!"
Ji Song didn't waste any time and asked them to prepare the ingredients.
Thinking of her aunt's health, Ji Song didn't plan to do anything big, as this was not good for her health.
I made a bowl of millet porridge, a bowl of egg custard and a few light side dishes.
When Ji Song brought these things to the front yard, Princess Pingyang just came back. It looked like she had gone out for morning exercises.
"You said that you are young and get up later than me every day. I don't know how you practice your martial arts." Princess Ji Song Pingyang scolded her when she saw her.
Ji Song didn't care and continued to eat his own food without even looking at it.
My family knows my own affairs, and I don’t know why. Recently, the nameless guidance technique I have been practicing seems to have encountered a bottleneck, and I have not made any progress for a while.
But Ji Song is not in a hurry, even if he is anxious it is useless.
Therefore, in addition to practicing martial arts every day, the practice of Daoyin has been temporarily put aside.
Princess Pingyang finished cleaning up and came to see a few snacks on the table. She rolled her eyes and said sarcastically: "It's a shame that I was worried about you yesterday. I didn't expect you to fool me like this?"
After all, there was no hesitation in the movements of his hands.
After taking a bite of the egg custard, his eyes lit up. Regardless of Ji Song's disdainful eyes, he started to devour it without any trace of the phoenix-like grace of the eldest princess of the Tang Dynasty.
"I'll be leaving in a moment, let me tell you!" Ji Song said after the two of them had finished eating and the maids had cleared away the things on the table.
When Princess Pingyang heard Ji Song's words, she paused slightly with her hand holding the teacup. After taking a sip of tea to digest her food, she said, "What? Is it because I, the aunt, did not treat you well or something, so I am so anxious to return to your doghouse?" ?”
Ji Song smiled bitterly and said, "Auntie, don't you know me yet? This place is not suitable for me. Chang'an is prosperous, but I still like to teach at home."
Princess Pingyang sighed secretly and said nothing more. He knew that the young man in front of him seemed easy to talk to, but as long as it was something he decided, few people could make him change his mind.
"I don't know when your family-loving temperament will change. When others have some ability, they just want everyone in the world to know. You are the only one who always hides it, as if you are afraid that others will know." Princess Pingyang said.
"I'm still young, don't worry!" Ji Song said nonchalantly.
"Uh!" Princess Pingyang then realized that Ji Song was only thirteen years old this year and was still not old enough to become a adult in the Tang Dynasty.
He smiled bitterly, waved his hand and said: "Get out of here!"
"Okay!" Ji Song immediately turned around and went out.
Seeing Ji Song's leaving figure, Li Xiuning didn't know what he thought of. He suddenly laughed and whispered: "Sometimes, it doesn't just mean you don't want to. How can you be in the countryside all day long if you have the talent to help the world?" Wild boys!"
As soon as Ji Song came out, the soldiers of the Princess Mansion had already brought Honglei out and were waiting at the door. He took Honglei and was about to mount the horse when he heard someone calling him.
"Master Ji, stay!"
Ji Song looked over and saw a middle-aged man calling to stop him.
"Who are you?"
The visitor didn't dare to neglect him. He knew that the person in front of him was the person that the prince was interested in, so he didn't dare to take advantage of him. He bent down and said, "I'm running errands for the prince. This car is a gift from the prince." Please check the young master’s gift.”
After saying that, he stepped aside. Only then did Ji see a carriage behind him, and he didn't know what it was.
"You are so virtuous and capable. How dare you trouble the prince? Please report back to the prince. Ji Song will not receive any reward for his meritless work!" Ji Song replied.
After saying that, he was about to turn around and leave, but at this moment, Princess Pingyang arrived at some point and said, "What did the prince send you?"
Ji Song could give it away, but as Princess Pingyang with outstanding military achievements, he would say whatever he wanted. If the princess is offended, the prince will not be able to save himself.
When she knew that the car was full of books, Princess Pingyang looked at Ji Song with a strange look.
He waved to the person coming and indicated that he could leave. If the visitor is granted amnesty, take them away quickly.
"Since it's brother's kindness, you don't have to refuse. Anyway, they are some books. Although they are precious, it seems that brother still thinks highly of you!" Princess Pingyang looked at Ji Song with a half-smile but not a smile.
"Auntie! Stop teasing me!" Ji Song said helplessly.
"Okay, okay, these books can be regarded as the reward for the emergence of people like you in the Tang Dynasty as the prince.
If you don't accept it, not only will it appear that you are ungrateful, but also where will you trap the prince? So it's better to just accept it, it's no big deal.
If you feel bad about it, then just remember this favor from the prince! Whenever the prince needs it, just give it to him. "How could Ji Song not understand the meaning of Princess Pingyang's words? He could only smile bitterly and agree.
Seeing Ji Song's agreement, Princess Pingyang immediately smiled and said, "You don't have to worry about these books. I will send someone to deliver them to Ji's Zhuangzi in their entirety."
Ji Song didn't say anything. He couldn't wait to go back home and be completely in bed and never come out again.
How many times have you been to Chang'an? He is a little stuck in it. If there is nothing important in the future, he will never step into Chang'an City easily.
He had already made up his mind that after returning to Jijiazhuangzi, he would walk around Dahuang and teach, and would never get involved in the affairs between the prince and Li Shimin again.
Stepping on the red tear, I waved goodbye to Princess Pingyang.
The riding whip crackled softly, Hong Lei's front hooves rose up, and he took a step two or three feet away, running straight towards the north gate.
At this time, there were a lot of people in Chang'an. He did not go to the south gate, but went straight to the nearest north gate, and then turned back to the southwest.
"Maybe he won't come to Chang'an again until they decide the winner!" Li Xiuning looked at Ji Song's retreating figure and thought of something, and his figure suddenly became desolate.
After instructing his soldiers to send the cart of books to Ji's Zhuangzi, he turned around and approached the princess's mansion, and ordered the door to be closed to thank guests!
'Bang! 'The sound of a door closing completely isolated the entire Princess Mansion from the entire Chang'an City.
