You are the only business today.
Mu Mingtang didn't expect him to speak so frankly, and his cheeks got hot, making him unable to get off the stage. She gave Xie Xuanchen an angry look, and when she turned her head, her eyes were full of smiles.
Although Tokyo is lively every night, the Shangyuan Festival is unparalleled in the limelight. Now that the twelfth lunar month has just entered, a lantern market is already set up outside Donghuamen. With Mu Mingtang's current status, she naturally wouldn't go outside and crowd with the crowd. Her car was parked in front of the largest store, and just after the car stopped, the shopkeeper inside rushed to meet the car.
Xie Xuanchen got off the car first, and then picked up Mu Mingtang down. When the shopkeeper first saw the guards around him, he knew that today's customer was a big deal, and he was mentally prepared, but when he saw the two immortal figures getting out of the car one after another, he was still stunned.
He specializes in the lantern business, and he has seen many rich and noble people coming and going. How could he not know that there are such people in Tokyo
Neither Xie Xuanchen nor Mu Mingtang wanted to publicize, so the maids only called them "Lang Jun" and "Niangzi", without revealing their true identities. The shopkeeper's diligence led Mu Mingtang and Xie Xuanchen into the store. Mu Mingtang looked at the dazzling lanterns and waved to the shopkeeper and others: "You can do your own business, and Lang Jun and I will take a look. "
The shopkeeper should be, but he didn't dare to really leave Mu Mingtang and Xie Xuanchen down, so he had to follow him not far or near, to ensure that he would not disturb the interest of the nobles, and that he could call at any time if he had anything.
Mu Mingtang has no idea what kind of lamp to buy. The last time she went to buy a lamp with her family was before the age of twelve, when she was a child and had no say. After watching for a while, Mu Mingtang had no idea, and asked Xie Xuanchen in a low voice, "How did the palace go to Shangyuan Festival before?"
Xie Xuanchen thought about it seriously and said, "I don't know, I haven't noticed it."
Mu Mingtang had no choice but to ask again: "Then do you remember how your family bought lamps before? How much do you buy and how much do you need?"
Xie Xuanchen thought about it for a while this time, and still shook his head. Mu Mingtang was desperate, she shouldn't count on Xie Xuanchen.
Xu Shi was very distressed when he saw Mu Mingtang, Xie Xuanchen said: "You don't have to be concerned. Anyway, there are only two of us at home. No one dares to tell you if you buy more and buy less. You can buy what you like, and you don't need to think too much about the rest."
Mu Mingtang thinks about it, but she has no parents-in-law above her, and no sister-in-law below her, so she doesn't have to worry about being caught by her concubine and aunts.
Mu Mingtang relaxed and looked at the lamp more calmly. There are many kinds of lamps in the store, such as lamp balls, silk lamps, sun and moon lamps, and horse riding lamps. There are also some exquisite ones, which are made of various exquisite shapes with lanterns such as glaze, feathers, and colorful silk. Mu Mingtang paid attention to several of them, and finally pointed to a glazed lantern and a double-layered palace lantern, and asked Xie Xuanchen, "The palace lantern is elegant, and the glazed lantern is exquisite, which one do you think the Yulin Hall hangs?"
Xie Xuanchen was stopped, and he also came over to study the two lamps. The two were talking when a thick man's voice came from behind: "I am disturbed by my humble position, please greet His Royal Highness Prince An."
Mu Mingtang paused, glanced at Xie Xuanchen from the corner of his eyes, and then slowly turned around. Xie Xuanchen's expression was still indifferent, and he said, "I will accompany the princess to go out to see the lights today.
Zhu Yanghong should be, although he shouldn't, but Zhu Yanghong still accidentally crossed a thought in his mind. Just because of Xie Xuanchen's movement just now, he still wants to make a sound
Zhu Yanghong was shocked when he saw the old man jumping out of the car on the street just now. He thought that Xie Xuanchen was dead.
Zhu Yang Hong was once a military general by Guo Rong's side, and also worked with Xie Yi and Xie Xuanchen and their sons. Later, Zhu Yanghong was transferred to the southwest by Guo Rong to guard the customs. He had not returned to the capital for many years, and naturally missed a series of power transitions in the capital. The last time he met Xie Xuanchen was in the third year of Hongjia, when Xie Xuanchen went to conquer Houshu.
The two of them sent troops together, Xie Xuanchen was the commander, and he led the left army to defend. In fact, Zhu Yanghong didn't do much, and by the time he arrived with his troops, Xie Xuanchen had already leveled the Houshu Palace.
Although we haven't seen each other for many years, Zhu Yang Hong has never forgotten Xie Xuanchen. Thousands of troops are easy to obtain, but one general is hard to find, especially for a person like Xie Xuanchen who is gifted with divine power and has an excellent combat intuition. I wish that Yang Hong had seen Xie Xuanchen lead the army with his own eyes, how could he forget such a person who is like a hero of the sky.
But after that, there was less news about Xie Xuanchen. I wish Yang Hongshou to stay at the border and not to leave without permission. He can only hear vague clips from other people. For example, Xie Xuanchen seems to be crazy and has been banned by Xie Yi. Later, it was rumored that Xie Xuanchen is gone, and the time is not long.
I wish Yang Hong would pay attention to Xie Xuanchen's news at first. Later, in the news from the capital, Xie Xuanchen's name appeared less and less, and it was completely absent this year. Zhu Yang Hong originally thought that Xie Xuanchen was dead.
Unexpectedly, I saw him today in that situation. I wished Yang Hong to let his family make way for Xie Xuanchen, but he couldn't calm down for a long time after that, so he could not help but follow him in the name of buying a lamp.
In fact, when I entered the store just now, Zhu Yang Hong didn't dare to recognize it. If it wasn't for the fact that this face was too recognizable, Zhu Yang Hong really couldn't believe it was Xie Xuanchen.
The second son of the Xie family, Xie Xuanchen, is famous for being arrogant, irritable, and impatient with common affairs.
Although three or four years have passed and the boy at that time has grown up, a person's character should always be the same. However, Xie Xuanchen's change...isn't it too big? I wish Yang Hong had never seen Xie Xuanchen speak to people in such a gentle manner, no, he couldn't imagine Xie Xuanchen would accompany others to look at the lanterns and choose the decorations to decorate the house.
I wish Yang Hong came up to say hello with an extremely complicated mood. Sure enough, this is indeed Xie Xuanchen. Although his eyebrows have grown, he can still see the shadow of the year. After Zhu Yang Hong said hello, his eyes couldn't help falling to Mu Mingtang.
Xie Xuanchen saw it and said, "This is my princess, surnamed Mu."
I wish Yang Hong had guessed early, but he was just wondering that someone in the world could help move Xie Xuanchen. Zhu Yang Hong saluted Mu Mingtang again: "I wish Yang Hong in the humble position, see Princess An."
I don't know when the title of King Qiyang was changed to King An, but obviously, these things are not important. After Zhu Yang Hong finished speaking, he winked at the people behind him: "Why don't you come and see An Wang and An Wang Fei soon?"
Several sons of Zhu Yang Hong stepped forward to salute Xie Xuanchen in turn. After that, Mrs. Zhu led Zhu Yuqing to the front and bowed her head to say hello to Mu Mingtang: "My concubine, please be safe, Princess An."
Such a series of people salute Mu Mingtang, including Zhu Yang Hong, a powerful, majestic and robust general, Mu Mingtang's face is inevitably a little surprised. Xie Xuanchen explained to her next to him: "He is Zhu Yanghong, who used to be the defender of Kuizhou, and is now stationed in Yazhou in the southwest. After I withdrew from Xiangyang, I sent an urgent military report to him to respond to Xiangyang."
In this way, Mu Mingtang understood that it was the general who was stationed in Yazhou. Yazhou was on the southwest border, bordering Tubo and Dali, and its geographical location was very important. Not to mention, there is also the relationship of Xiangyang back then.
Mu Mingtang gave Zhu Yang Hong a half-gift: "As a concubine, I represent the people of Xiangyang, thank you for the kindness of General Zhu for his help."
I wish that Yang Hong would dare to respond to Mu Mingtang's gift, and hurriedly avoided it, saying again and again: "Princess smashed the last commander, and I am frightened by my humble position."
Xu Shi saw that the expressions of Zhu's family were very frightened. Xie Xuanchen said to Zhu Yanghong: "The princess is from Xiangyang. When I found out that Xiangyang had changed, I rushed into the city and killed a group of people, and sent you an urgent military report. After that, she followed the others. Leaving Xiangyang, I didn't see you entering the city."
I wish Yang Hong understood that it turned out that what Mu Mingtang did was the same thing back then. Zhu Yuqing was told by her parents not to talk nonsense, but at this moment she looked at Mu Mingtang and Xie Xuanchen standing side by side, and couldn't help whispering to the maid: "Princess An is from Xiangyang, Prince An led someone to rescue Xiangyang, and later the princess married King An. Wouldn't this be a hero saving beauty and promising each other?"
Zhu Yuqing originally spoke to the maid in a low voice, but she couldn't control her voice, which was heard by many people present. Mrs. Zhu's expression was very embarrassed, she gave Zhu Yuqing a hard look, and hurriedly pleaded guilty: "Prince and concubine forgive me, the little girl grew up at the border, she is stubborn and ignorant, and does not understand etiquette, please don't care about the words of children."
When Mu Mingtang heard it, he smiled and said, "It's okay, the lord is indeed my savior. I wish the young lady to be happy and lively, innocent and lively, I like it very much, and I wish the wife not to be harsh on her daughter."
After Mu Mingtang finished speaking, Zhu Yanghong secretly went to see Xie Xuanchen and found that Xie Xuanchen didn't look angry, so he was relieved. I wish Yang Hong's spirit was tight and relaxed, but now that Xie Xuanchen really doesn't care, he has a feeling of disbelief.
We haven't seen each other for two or three years. Xie Xuanchen is not only a hero to save the beauty, but also has a good temper, is it too much? Zhu Yanghong immediately remembered the son of the prime minister who was on the street just now and almost had his head chopped off by Xie Xuanchen, and felt that it was not Xie Xuanchen's change of temper, but that he only had sex in front of the princess.
The things in this world really don't make sense. After living for a long time, you can see everything.
Mrs. Zhu and the young masters and young ladies of the Zhu family, including Zhu Yanghong, were somewhat restrained in front of Xie Xuanchen. Xie Xuanchen didn't care at all, and still freely discussed with Mu Mingtang which lamp should be hung in Yulintang: "I think both of them can be used. Since you like it, you can buy both."
Mu Mingtang glanced at him and said, "The lanterns are hung only once a year, and we will have to buy new ones next year. How many lamps can Yulintang hang, if I buy two styles to go back, wouldn't it be a waste?"
"It's simple. Hanging palace lanterns on a single day and glazed lanterns on two days will solve it."
Xie Xuanchen said it in a serious manner, of course, Mu Mingtang was angry and laughed when he heard it, and couldn't help but glared at him with a smile: "Jing Luan said, how can you toss people like this."
When Mu Mingtang said these words to Xie Xuanchen, it was natural, as if it was an unusual thing. Mrs. Zhu has a suspicious look on her face. How can an ordinary wife dare to say this to her husband in front of outsiders? As a princess, Mu Mingtang dares to speak and act like this? Especially Xie Xuanchen was used to it, and he didn't think it was disrespectful. Mrs. Zhu thought that this was the case in the capital, and quickly suppressed her surprise, lamenting in her heart that she was outdated.
Mrs. Zhu didn't notice that Zhu Yang Hong's eyebrows were about to catch flies. I wish Yang Hong to look at the young and beautiful princess who has never met before, and then look at Xie Xuanchen, who has a calm face, as if to say that there is nothing to make a fuss about, and feels that there is a problem with his memory.
In the past, Xie Xuanchen was like this
However, this is not over yet, Xie Xuanchen patiently accompanied Mu Mingtang to pick lanterns throughout the whole process, comparing the two palace lanterns that were exactly the same in Zhu Yanghong's opinion. Just looking at Xie Xuanchen's appearance, who would have thought that this is the second young master of the Xie family who dared to contradict even the emperor's words a few years ago
Because Princess An was interested, Mrs. Zhu also bought two sets of lights. Zhu Yuqing followed her mother and couldn't help but secretly glanced at Mu Mingtang and Xie Xuanchen one after another.
Not only Zhu Yuqing, but everyone else in the store was peeking at the two of them. The two of them looked very rich and noble at first glance, and what was even more rare was that both men and women were young and beautiful, and standing side by side was almost perfect. The two were also very approachable, chatting in low voices from time to time, as if discussing how to hang the lantern.
It is especially mysterious that an immortal character can even talk about such a life-like thing. Zhu Yuqing's heart was full of envy. It turned out that they were the princes and princesses. She thought that these were characters that only appeared in books and dramas. Unexpectedly, the real princes and princesses are much prettier than those in the play.
And it's more real and amiable than in the play.
Especially Xie Xuanchen, who was so fierce just now, he shoved the wings of the bamboo dragonfly into the doorpost with a flick of his hand, but he didn't expect to talk to his wife so gently. It's much better than the men she knew who put on airs and put on the air of grandfathers with their wives and daughters.
Mu Mingtang found out that Zhu Yuqing was looking at her. She was actually not much older than Zhu Yuqing. At this moment, she didn't put on the air of a princess and asked, "What is Miss Zhu?"
Zhu Yuqing didn't expect Mu Mingtang to talk to her, she was quietly twisted by Mrs. Zhu, and she was flattered and said, "I am a chicken."
Mu Mingtang nodded and said, "Only one year younger than me. I just saw that there is a set of zodiac lanterns over there, which is very ingenious. Xiang Nanchun, you can bring a unitary lantern and give it to Miss Zhu, it will be counted as my gift. I wish you a welcome gift from Miss."
Xiang Nanchun replied, she didn't take two steps, and the attentive shop clerk had already brought the You Deng over. Xiang Nanchun handed it over to Zhu Yuqing. Zhu Yuqing was flattered, and even Mrs. Zhu and Zhu Yanghong were surprised: "How can this make it happen. The little girl is stubborn, how can she be able to be lifted up like a princess?"
"General Zhu and Mrs. Zhu are polite. Speaking of which, I'm not much older than Miss Zhu, and it's okay to say that I'm a peer of the same age. I have few peers in Beijing. When I see Miss Zhu today, I feel that I'm in a relationship, and I can't help but feel close. I'm in a hurry today. , I didn't prepare a generous gift, just a lamp to express my feelings, the general's wife should not refuse."
Mu Mingtang said to such an extent that Mrs. Zhu could only answer. She glanced at her daughter and winked, "Why don't you thank the princess soon?"
Zhu Yuqing hurriedly stepped forward and said crisply: "Thank you wangfei. Wangfei, you are much more beautiful than the princess in the play, and you are so kind and amiable. If someone asks me who is the most beautiful person I have ever seen, I will tell you."
Mrs. Zhu was embarrassed and scolded: "How can you compare an actor with a princess?"
Mu Mingtang was praised for being beautiful in person, so he couldn't help laughing. She waved her hand and said, "It's okay, Miss Zhu is pure-hearted, and that's not what she meant. I always stay alone in the palace, and I'm often bored. If Mrs. Zhu has time, she might as well bring Miss Zhu to the palace often."
Mrs. Zhu was overjoyed, she didn't expect Mu Mingtang to favor Zhu Yuqing so much. She hurriedly responded, and all the servants of the Zhu family also showed joy.
Everyone in the Zhu family was beaming, but only Xie Xuanchen glanced at Mu Mingtang with dissatisfaction on his face. Mu Mingtang was afraid that he would demolish the platform in front of the Zhu family, so he hurriedly pulled his sleeve behind his back.
Xie Xuanchen endured reluctantly. The lights have almost been seen, and Zhu Yanghong has to report back to the Ministry of War. The two families separated at the door and boarded the car.
After waiting to get in the car, Xie Xuanchen nodded Mu Mingtang's nose and asked, "You always stay alone in the palace? Are you often bored? Are you still rare in the capital?"
Xie Xuanchen said more and more angrily, raised his eyebrows and said, "Don't you usually stay with me, but you feel bored? Also, am I not my peers?"
This is deliberately provocative, Mu Mingtang sighed, and said, "I'm not trying to get closer to the Zhu family, the lady of the Zhu family seems to want to discuss a kiss, and Mrs. Zhu is for her daughter, and she is willing to often Come and walk in front of me. After going back and forth, you and Zhu Yanghong will have a chance to meet."
How can there be so many coincidences, and there is no other purpose. Mu Mingtang knew that Zhu Yanghong was an old acquaintance of Xie Xuanchen, and he was also the general guarding the southwest, a rare figure outside the emperor's power. Of course, such a person cannot be ignored.
Xie Xuanchen understood, but he was still uncomfortable when he heard Mu Mingtang say that staying in the palace was boring. Xie Xuanchen was embarrassed when he suddenly heard Mu Mingtang ask in a very strange tone, "However, do you think you and I are the same age?"
The author has something to say: Xie Xuanchen: A heartbreak.

Zhu Yuqing is just a passer-by, not as good as her father's name, and will not start a branch.
