In the cold night of the fourth year of Xianheng, the imperial city gate slowly opened, and a simple and unpretentious carriage slowly drove out from the Prince's East Palace, then exited the imperial city gate and drove on the streets of Chang'an in the Tang Dynasty.
The curfew has been broken by wealthy dignitaries, official families and His Highness the Crown Prince. Although it is already late at night, you can still occasionally hear the sound of distant wheels and the footsteps of the city guards patrolling the city as always.
The cold wind carries a chill that penetrates the human heart, wandering on the street like a lonely ghost. The curved moon, like a naughty boy with narrowed eyes, exudes a cold light, hanging in the sky. Above the silent night sky.
The stars in the sky are embedded in the ink-like sky above the head, like brilliant gems, placed in the woman's jewelry box, shining brightly and dazzlingly.
After the carriage traveled a certain distance, it slowly stopped. After a while, a tall man wearing a fur that blended in with the night got out of the carriage first, and then reached out to support a man in white fur. Qiu's woman slowly stepped out of the carriage.
The carriage was silent, with two lanterns set up, and it followed a man and a woman at a distance. A man and a woman walked side by side, holding hands, and strolled leisurely on the dark night streets of Chang'an.
Under a hint of light and shadow, Li Hong and Pei Wanying looked at each other and smiled, with heart-warming smiles on their faces.
"You don't have to give it to me in person. Hua Meng and Jing Zhe are already very familiar with me." Pei Wanying felt her little hand being held, and she felt so warm that she couldn't bear to let go. She even looked forward to it, whether this road home would be possible. If it is longer, it would be better if it has no end.
"I'm going out to relax. I can't stay in the East Palace anymore. No matter what I say, I have to talk to the little fat Li Dan tomorrow." Li Hong said with lingering fear, softly feeling the jade hand in his palm.
"Well, remember to tell him, this is very disrespectful. You said you are really, what are you thinking, how could you say such disrespectful words." Pei Wanying said with a trace of worry in her tone. Although she was blaming, she was completely There was no blaming tone.
"I got a little involved in the discussion. My original intention was to remind Li Dan of the difference between egg-laying and human beings, so that he can grasp the direction and become a figure like the ancestors. At the worst, I am afraid he can also be like Li Chunfeng and Yuan Tiangang. He is an ordinary person, so when he gets excited, he forgets the rules when speaking." Li Hong smiled and explained to Pei Wanying.
"Yeah, it would be nice if Prince Yin..." Pei Wanying felt a little gaffe, and swallowed back what she wanted to say by pulling her hair from her ears.
"I understand, but don't worry. I know what to do. Everything will be fine. Are you still worried about following me to Li Xian's mansion today?" Li Hong looked at Pei Wanying, who had a profile on one side. Under the dim lantern, the originally snow-white skin color was stained with a layer of soft and soft colors, making the already delicate profile face even more charming.
Pei Wanying let Li Hong hold her little hand, lowered her head and walked forward slowly without saying a word. After a while, she said: "The orange-billed blue-faced boobies and chicks are the egg-laying species you mentioned, but they hatched The chicks, because... the laws of animal survival, have completely different fates. I don't know whether it is happiness or sadness. It would be great if... they could be cared for like chicks. " At the end of her sentence, Pei Wanying's voice had already changed. It's too low to be heard.
But fortunately, it was not the bustling streets of Chang'an at this time, but the dead of night in Chang'an where everything was quiet. Li Hong still listened to Pei Wanying's words word for word.
Come to think of it, the chick is today's Li Dan, and the chick is himself and Li Xian. One is born in front, and the other is born in the back. In the end, one of them will be driven out by the other and left to fend for themselves.
"People, like birds and animals, all grow up in a helpless environment. Sometimes the reality is so cruel, and you often need to do things you don't want to face. Now that you face it... just try your best." Li Hong sighed a little. said.
What's going on between him and Li Xian? I'm afraid no one can know that they are not gods and can control the development of the situation, but they cannot control the growth and annihilation of Li Xian's ambition. Except for Li Xian himself, no one knows whether he still covets the position of prince.
So from the beginning of the seamless clothing to the seamless clothing, while pressing forward step by step, he is still looking for a way out for Li Xian. But if the development of the situation is beyond his control and he is unable to control the overall situation, that At that time, you will really be in trouble.
So no matter what, after his first day, when he got permission from his mother and father to go to Jiangnan, Fan Yang had to make some changes. The Boling Cui family, the Xingyang Zheng family, the Qinghe Cui family, and the Zhaojun Li family, as well as the Chao Everything in the hall must change.
Hearing the sigh in Li Hong's tone, Pei Wanying suddenly stopped, looked at Li Hong with a pair of bright eyes, and said emotionally: "I... I know that I have gone too far today, and I hope your highness will forgive you, but... I am just mentally and physically. I am uneasy, and I hope your highness will be safe..."
In the night, you can still clearly see Pei Wanying's beauty, the title of concubine, and the faint blush creeping up her cheeks, along with the dimples, with a hint of shame, making people want to stay like this in the cold wind. Look down like this.
Li Hong let go of Pei Wanying's hand without saying a word, raised his hands to cup the cute and shy cheek, looked into the shy and embarrassed eyes, and said softly: "You are right, all these years beside me, except for Bai Chun occasionally If you dare to refute or warn me, no one will say anything contrary to my opinion in front of me. I am not a god, I am still a human being, and I will make mistakes, so sometimes... I need someone around me to point out things that are easily ignored by me. Things and details, so you are doing the right thing, and I hope you can continue to do so. ”
Pei Wanying looked at those equally bright eyes, and saw that handsome face suddenly getting bigger in her sight. She took the initiative to raise her neck and pressed her seductive red lips up. A warm feeling came from her lips. As the pressure hit her, Pei Wanying closed her eyes in contentment and allowed the prince to hold her tightly with her whole body. Even though she was almost out of breath, she did not want to be let go by the prince at this moment.
The carriage stopped in the distance, and when the two stopped, it also stopped. Hua Meng, holding a lantern, stood quietly looking ahead, holding a lantern at the same distance ahead. He knew that His Highness the Crown Prince and Miss Pei stopped, so he stopped too.
Just when Pei Wanying felt that she was about to faint, the overbearing lips reluctantly let go of her red lips, panting slightly, heaving his chest hidden in the white fur, and glanced at Li Hong angrily, shyly Said: "Tonight... Tonight you have to treat me well. I am afraid that I have to prepare some things with my mother in the past few days, and my father is coming back. I am afraid that my mother will be too happy to sleep tonight..." "
"So I won't be able to see you in the next few days?" Li Hong asked, still holding his dazzling face, his forehead pressed against his forehead.
"Hmm..." Pei Wanying wanted to nod, but the man leaned her forehead against hers, so she could only continue to explain in a low voice: "I have to go to Lantian to visit the master, so I'm afraid there will be more things before the first day. There’s no time to meet you.”
"Yes, we still need to visit Sun Laodao. Let's do this. They can stay with you. Du Qiuniang, Huo Xiaoyu and Xue Chuchu are on their way back to Chang'an from Luoyang with their father. It doesn't matter if you don't have anyone around to look after you. "Li Hong took Pei Wanying's hand again and began to walk forward slowly.
Pei Wanying looked sideways at the tall figure and the angular face, nodded in agreement with Li Hong's words, and did not refute.
"Why did Your Majesty suddenly summon the three of them into the palace? I remember it was the Queen's order. Yan Lingbin thought that his achievements were not enough, and he was sad for several days. After listening to your explanation today, he got rid of his doubts. ." Pei Wanying said, somewhat at a loss for words.
When the Queen summoned several people to the palace, it was because of the Crown Prince's face that she specially left Yan Lingbin to accompany her. The other three people were summoned to the palace to accompany His Majesty and make a plan led by His Majesty before the first day of the year. movement.
So during these days, Du Qiuniang and others were left in Luoyang to accompany Li Zhi to make music. Because of Li Hong's relationship, Wu Mei thought about it and finally left Pei Wanying with Yan Lingbin to accompany her.
Pei Wanying has become a close sister with Yan Lingbin and others these days, so on the premise that Yan Lingbin has always been mentally ill, today she left Yan Lingbin in the East Palace. As for what to do, Pei Wanying would not admit it anyway.
With her delicate head held high, no matter how Li Hong asked her how she came up with the idea, Pei Wanying puffed her cheeks playfully, looked up at the sky, and coldly ignored Li Hong's questioning.
Pei Wanying, who was anxious about being questioned and couldn't hold her face anymore, stopped again and looked at Li Hong angrily, her bright and talkative eyes full of feigned anger: "You hate it!"
Before she could hit her with her pink fist, the person she hated to the deepest part of her heart had already started running forward, so someone had to chase her with his feet and scare him in the dark, wearing a white fur coat. Someone, stop quickly and just hit him.
"We'll talk about it after you catch up with me." Standing at the door of Pei Xingjian's house, he knocked on the door casually and said to the beautiful lady in white not far away.
"So fast, you arrived in such a short time?" Pei Wanying looked behind her. The carriage was still following quietly behind her, but the alley seemed to have become much shorter, and she arrived unknowingly.
"Is it quick? It won't be quick if I take you home a few more times." The gatekeeper opened the door with a small lantern. When he saw that it was His Highness the Crown Prince, he was so frightened that he almost dropped the lantern.
"I sent your lady back, why are you so excited?" Li Hong was in a good mood, joking with the concierge who was already familiar with him.
Before the concierge could say anything and salute, Pei Wanying lightly hit Li Hong, rolled her eyes at him, and relieved the concierge. After Li Hong said that tomorrow morning, the two of them would be waiting for you outside the house, they reluctantly parted. He watched the tall figure leaving and got into the carriage, then reluctantly closed the door with the concierge.
"Miss, Miss Yang has been waiting for you in the house for a long time."
