Love Affairs in Chang’an

Chapter 73: The little devil's clever plan

Views:

Seeing Qin Mubai's anger rising, Pang Fei panicked: "Teacher, please keep your voice down. This matter should not be publicized. This is inside the palace!"

"I know." Qin Mubai frowned and sat down slowly, saying, "Tell me what happened in detail."

"Yes." Pang Fei said.

It turns out that the world's best wine has become increasingly popular and famous, attracting countless dignitaries and talented people to gather here, and it has become a scenic area in Chang'an. In addition to the pipa music, royal wine and three fairies that made the capital famous, the beauty of the shop owner Wu Meiniang also spread throughout Chang'an City.

Coupled with the story that the emperor was preparing to accept Wu Meiniang as his concubine, but was "snatched for love" by Qin Mubai, it adds a bit of mystery and legend to Wu Meiniang.

In this way, Wu Meiniang has become a beautiful and famous flower, and it is impossible not to attract a group of crazy bees and butterflies to disturb her. However, Wu Meiniang usually doesn't stay in the No. 1 Liquor in the World now. The ordinary elegant guests and prodigal sons can only have sex in their hearts at most, and no one dares to do anything extraordinary to her. Of course, the deterrent power of Qin Shubao and Qin Mubai was there, and the fact that Wu Meiniang was involved in several connections was also an important reason. For example, the King of Wei Li Tai protected her intentionally or unintentionally, not to mention the King of Wu Li Ke. He was the matchmaker between Wu Meiniang and Qin Mubai, as everyone knew.

Therefore, even though Wu Meiniang has been coveted by the wolves, she has always been in danger.

But recently, the "strange wolf" Li Yuanchang, King of Han, appeared.

King Li Yuanchang of Han was the seventh son of the great ancestor Li Yuanshu and the half-brother of Emperor Li Shimin. He was about twenty years old this year and was a well-known playboy of a romantic prince.

Li Yuanchang was brought up by Li Yuan in the harem since he was a child. He was quite favored, so he has always been favored and arrogant. Except for Li Shimin, no one seemed to take it seriously. After Li Shimin ascended the throne, out of some guilt towards his father Li Yuan, he had no choice but to indulge his father's beloved younger brother, and always turned a blind eye.

In this way, the "greatest" dandy prince in Chang'an City was born. It is said that Li Yuanchang was quite talented. He was best at running calligraphy and painting horses, and was highly praised by the literati of the time. In addition, his accomplishments in "playing" are extraordinary. Whether it is flying eagles and running dogs, gambling on Cuju, or playing chess and music, there is nothing he is not proficient in.

In addition, he is particularly proficient in...playing with women, and is very lecherous. Almost everyone in Chang'an City knows this.

"I don't know why the King of Han suddenly fell in love with the Master... He was also cunning enough and did not directly harass the Master. Instead, he first 'invited' the three fairies away from the No. 1 Liquor in the World. Naturally, the waiters in the shop were not interested. He dared to disobey the King of Han. Later, the King of Han held the three fairies for a long time and refused to return them, forcing his wife to come forward in person. "Pang Fei said, "My teacher, you know that this Han King Li Yuanchang is the younger brother of the Emperor of Wei and Wu. The king's uncle, and he had a close personal relationship with the prince... At this time, even the king of Wei and the king of Wu could not come forward to help, let alone others. Therefore, the three fairies are still detained by the king of Han. Master, I don’t know what to do for a while.”

"I understand. You go out first." Qin Mubai waved his hand, and Pang Fei retreated obediently.

"Li Yuanchang, we are strangers to you, but you provoked me and wanted to have sex with my Qin Mubai's woman. Aren't you openly clamoring to cuckold me?... You bastard!" As soon as Pang Fei left, Qin Mubai punched his buttocks. He vented the anger that had been pent up in his chest for a long time.

After a while, he calmed down and thought patiently.

In terms of status, it is estimated that only Li Shimin in the entire Chang'an city can control Li Yuanchang. But the current situation is that Li Yuanchang is Li Shimin's younger brother, and I am just a subordinate... Besides, Wu Meiniang's identity is very sensitive. If I sue Li Shimin, he will definitely be furious!

Firstly, it was naturally because of Li Yuanchang's absurdity and rudeness; secondly, the protagonist of the incident was Wu Meiniang, which must have aroused his past worries. Maybe Li Shimin took the opportunity to "revenge his private vendetta" and hit each other fifty-fifty. It was even possible Put your anger on my head!

Moreover, Li Yuanchang has not done anything extreme now. So far, he has only "invited" the three fairies to his house to perform. His rumored "let Wu Meiniang replace someone" has not come true, so it is not enough for me to accuse him. evidence of. If I really went to complain, it would be tantamount to fanning the flames and making the matter bigger. It became a royal scandal. Not only Wu Meiniang and I were drowned in rumors and storms, but even Li Shimin had no place to put his face. Even if we could get the three fairies back and let Wu Meiniang escape from Li Yuanchang's clutches, Li Yuanchang would be his mortal enemy from now on, and it would leave an embarrassing shadow on Li Shimin's heart again.

Therefore, unless it is absolutely necessary, you cannot go to Li Shimin to complain. We must think of a roundabout way to eliminate this matter quietly!

But what can be done? ... After pondering for most of the night, Qin Mubai felt a little clearer and finally had a "clever plan" that was not a clever one.

Hey, I actually asked that guy for help sometimes! …

The next day, Qin Mubai went to the harem as an errand as usual. During the lunch break, he came to the outside of the Xianju Palace and asked the palace maid to come in to send a message that he made a special trip to see Princess Gaoyang.

Princess Gaoyang was taking a nap. When she heard that Qin Mubai came to ask for an audience, she hurriedly got up to freshen up and dress up. She invited him to the pavilion by the Taiye Pond at the back of the palace to drink tea and talk.

"Hehe, it's rare that the teacher is willing to take the initiative to come to me. Do you also teach pipa at noon?" Princess Gao Yang asked with a smile while holding a pipa.

Qin Mubai smiled and gave him a wink, gesturing for her to move aside. After all the palace maids and eunuchs had retired, Qin Mubai said: "Your Highness, it's natural that you can't play the pipa in the middle of the day and worry about others taking a nap. I came here because I have one thing to ask of Your Highness."

"Okay, tell me!" Princess Gao Yang seemed to be quite excited. She put down her pipa and looked at Qin Mubai seriously, looking forward to what was going to happen next.

"Before making this request... I would like to ask, how is the relationship between the brother and sister of Her Royal Highness the Princess and His Royal Highness the Prince?" Qin Mubai asked.

"Hey, why are you asking this all of a sudden?" Princess Gao Yang blinked her big eyes a few times, but did not break the casserole and asked the question, but she still replied, "Brother Prince... has always loved me very much. I have always had a close relationship with him. Du, basically, if I ask him for something or a small favor, he will agree. What, your matter is related to the prince brother? "

Qin Mubai was slightly happy: This is good! The King of Han Dynasty, Li Yuanchang, and the Prince Li Chengqian have always been inseparable. They are a typical pair of close friends and besties. The King of Wei and the King of Wu were afraid that his status as an imperial uncle would make it difficult for him to come forward, so it would be best to ask the prince for help. First of all, the prince is the crown prince of the country, so even if Li Yuanchang is the emperor's uncle, he still has to give him face; moreover, the two of them have a close personal relationship, so they will not make a big deal out of it.

"The thing is like this." Qin Mubai said, "I have an unmarried wife named Wu Meiniang, who opened a restaurant in Chang'an..."

"The best wine in the world is famous. I know it." Princess Gaoyang grinned mischievously, "I am also very familiar with your unmarried wife! I heard that when my father prepared to admit her into the harem, you were This thief got there first. You are amazing, Qin Mubai. You can even take away the woman that your father likes. And now your father still trusts you so much that he doesn't mention that thing anymore and doesn't care about it. ”

"Ahem, this is not the main topic. Don't go too far." Qin Mubai said, "I encountered a little trouble this time. It is related to Wu Mei Niang, and... it is also related to the King of Han."

"Uncle Seventh Emperor? What did he do again?" Princess Gao Yang's eyes widened in shock, "He couldn't have... gone to provoke Wu Meiniang, right?"

Qin Mubai was startled for a moment. Looking at Princess Gaoyang's expression and hearing her words, he could imagine that the Han King Li Yuanchang was indeed a bad person with a reputation.

So Qin Mubai told Princess Gaoyang the whole story.

"That's right... I, the imperial uncle, are a bit lawless and can cause more trouble than me." Princess Gaoyang curled her lips and said, "You have been talking for a long time, just to invite me to go to the prince brother's place and let him Can you persuade the King of Han to let the three fairies go and stop embarrassing Wu Meiniang?"

"Smart. That's what I mean." Qin Mubai smiled.

"Hehe..." Princess Gao Yang instantly revealed the evil smile of a little devil, "Then you have to tell me first, what are the benefits of me doing you a favor like this?"

"What does Her Majesty Princess want?" Now that Qin Mubai is here, he is already prepared to be slaughtered.

"Well... I haven't thought about it yet. I'll tell you when I think about it!" Princess Gaoyang clapped her hands happily and stretched out as if nothing had happened. "Don't worry, this matter will be taken care of." It’s on me!”

"Can you really do it?" Qin Mubai was a little doubtful.

"Why, you can't trust me?" Princess Gaoyang said with a smile, "Don't worry, there is no need to work for such a trivial matter, the prince brother. As long as I, Princess Gaoyang, come forward and talk to the Seventh Emperor, he will let him go. I, the Seventh Emperor's uncle, will let him go." I also grew up in the harem, and although I now live outside the palace, I still have a good personal relationship, so don’t worry!”

"Then please remember not to move me out." Qin Mubai said, "I don't want to make this matter a big deal. In any case, this matter will damage the dignity of the royal family and it will not sound good if it is spread out."

"It will also damage the reputation of a grown man like you, Qin Mubai, I know, hehe!" Princess Gaoyang said with a rather gleeful smile, "Don't worry, I know what I'm doing, do you think I'm such a fool? I just wanted to scare my Seventh Emperor uncle for a moment and say... An admonisher secretly informed my father. My father had already heard about this matter, so I went out of the palace to tell him the news and asked him to hurry up. Let him go and stop making trouble. Can my Seventh Emperor not let him go and stop his activities?"

"...Good strategy." Qin Mubai was speechless.

For such a difficult matter for me, the little demon girl can solve it in just a few words... This is her innate advantage. She has to be dissatisfied!

"Hehe, remember, you owe me a favor—whenever I think of it in the future, you have to return the favor to me, and you are not allowed to deny it!"

"Okay." Qin Mubai responded in one breath, with a sense of righteousness and dignity.
