Anguo Gonglou Jianyu, named Bosang, has a slender figure and elegant appearance. He doesn't look like a general, but a civil servant. Search: \(¨¨¨¨¨) Free to watch fine literature sent Huai Zhong away with a smile, and Lou Jianyu couldn't wait to go to Suzaku Hall.

After Emperor Taizong died, the Empress Dowager took her youngest son to control the government, causing great chaos in the court and vassal kings everywhere. Emperor Sejong, who was almost killed, issued a national edict that the queen must be a man. Once a prince is established, he will be handed over to the queen for upbringing, and he is not allowed to have a blind date with his biological mother. Now that Sejong has passed away for more than a hundred years, this national policy has been implemented so far, and it can indeed stabilize the government, but it's just that this kind of thing is his turn, so he can't be happy at all.

"... Lou Jing, the son of Duke Anguo, who is gentle and martial, with good looks, bestows marriage to the prince Xiao Chengjun..." Lou Jing pinched the bright yellow brocade embroidered with colorful dragon patterns, and was speechless for a while.

Lou Jianyu was very satisfied with his son's expression now, and said coldly: "The imperial decree has been issued, so don't do any more unnecessary things!"

"Father," Lou Jing raised his head slowly, his voice was as calm as an ancient well, "Why?" Severe cold, morning and evening Dingshang has never been missing. Today, his father asked the guards to beat him, and he kept asking, why, why did he treat his own son like this!

"Hmph!" Lou Jianyu just snorted coldly, and flung his sleeves away.

Gao Yi didn't come back until the moon was in the middle of the sky. Hearing the will of the afternoon, he couldn't help being stunned, so fast

Lou Jing took several replies from Gao Yi, "Tomorrow you go to Zhuangzi and call in two masters." The matter was more serious than he thought. I don't feel sorry for him at all, it's always good to have more people by my side.

"Yes," Gao Yi replied, his resolute face couldn't help showing a sad expression, "My lord, what should we do in the future?"

"What else can I do?" Lou Jing put down the letter in her hand, closed her eyes, and when she opened her eyes, there was already a little smile on her face, "The decision is made on August 20th, and the marriage is on the second day of September. The emperor is so anxious." , as a courtier, it is natural for the king to share his worries."

"Your Highness..." Xun Xia called out worriedly, wondering if His Highness was confused by anger.

However, Gao Yi knew that the son's revealing of his feelings was due to his calculations, so he withdrew with peace of mind. Xun Xia was afraid that Lou Jing would have a fever at night, so he dismissed the night guard and rested in the ear room by himself. Zhuquetang became quiet, and the evening wind blew through the green bamboos in the courtyard, rustling, just like the sound of wind blowing withered grass in the desert, which made people feel a little desolate for no reason.

Lou Jing looked at the bright moon outside the window, trying to recall what the prince looked like. At the age of eleven, he went to the battlefield with his grandfather to practice. Two years ago, when his grandfather died in battle, he returned to the capital to observe his filial piety. The prince seldom made friends with honorable children. , was still the child who was wearing apricot-yellow robes and gave him wsi candy with a sullen face when he was a child.

At night, the moon is as cool as water, flowing on the vermilion glazed tiles, making the palace even more lonely.

East Palace, Chongren Hall.

"Did Lou Jing get beaten?" A slender hand pinched the paper in his hand, revealing a corner of his apricot-yellow sleeve under the clear moonlight. There was no joy or anger in his calm and melodious voice. It was the owner of the East Palace—— Prince Xiao Chengjun.

"Yes," a man dressed as a Confucian scholar stood beside him with his hands down, and replied respectfully, "Mr. An is hiding this matter, and the emperor probably doesn't know about it."

Xiao Chengjun nodded slightly, put the paper on the candle, and let the flame devour the snow-white paper.

"Your Highness, if the son is dissatisfied with this marriage, I'm afraid it will be..." His tone is full of worry and hesitation. Neither the queen nor the princess is the only son of a prince's family, let alone An Guogong. The mansion is from the Zanying family, which is completely different from those nobles who are fooling around. After marrying the son of An Guogong, that is, after cutting off the founding fathers, how could the emperor make such a muddled decision

Slowly putting his hands behind his back, Xiao Chengjun didn't intend to answer the words, he seemed to be waiting for the next sentence, but he didn't seem interested.

The speaker was not sure what the crown prince meant, so he could only bite the bullet and continued, "Although the Lou family is prominent, but the heirs are weak, it is not of much help to His Highness. Moreover, the son of Duke Anguo was raised by the old Duke Anguo himself. He took the lead in both riding and shooting, and the emperor rewarded him as a fourth-rank Yulin Zhonglang general. No one among the honored children can surpass him. He is a rare young talent..." Trapped in this square inch of the harem, It's a pity not to say it, and there will be a lot of hidden dangers.

"It doesn't matter." Xiao Chengjun raised his hand and interrupted the urgent advice. Since his father wanted him to marry Lou Jing, he naturally had his reasons. Besides, the decree has been made, so it is useless to talk more.

Gao Yi went to Zhuangzi outside Beijing the next day, and brought back two men with stern faces.

"This is Yun Qi and Yun Ba. Yun Qi is good at treating trauma, and Yun Ba is good at scouting news." Gao Yi pointed to the two men in black who were kneeling on the ground. two of them.

Lou Jing nodded, these sixteen dead men were elite soldiers in the hands of his grandfather, even his father didn't know the existence of these people, and he was reluctant to use them on weekdays, "The two of you are called here just in case, not as a last resort. Don't make a move."

The day when the decree was issued was already the seventeenth of August, but the wedding was scheduled for the second day of September. I don't know how the Qin Tianjian calculated the date so close. The An Guogong's mansion is very busy these days. But the Vermillion Bird Hall where the prince lives is deserted and even heavily guarded.

With Yun Qi treating Lou Jing's wounds, the wounds are gradually getting better, but the time is too short, and I am afraid that only 30% of them will be healed by the day of the ceremony. Mrs. An Guogong's wife, Mrs. Wei, learned her lesson that day, and never came to provoke Lou Jing again. Instead, she sent people to deliver some tonics such as ginseng and velvet antler every day. Lou Jing was busy inquiring about news these days, so he didn't have time to respond to it. she.

"My lord," Gao Yi walked in with a strange expression on his face, "This subordinate saw that Young Master Ji Ming was climbing over the wall."

"Zhao Xi?" Lou Jing who was lying on the bed reading a book raised his eyebrows, "Bring him in."

Not long after, I heard a youthful voice as clear as a golden bell, "Your guards are really getting more and more rude. They should really let them study with me for two years."

"I am illiterate as a guard, I'm afraid I will insult Zhao Jieyuan's reputation if I follow you to study." Lou Jing glanced sideways at the man who was busy arranging his robes, and couldn't help but smile in his eyes. The visitor looked to be only fifteen or sixteen years old, with delicate features and a bookish air unique to Jiangnan literati, "When did you come to Beijing, why didn't anyone come to deliver a letter?"

The Zhao family is a family of officials and eunuchs, and Zhao Xi's second uncle is Zhao Duan, the left minister of the dynasty. It stands to reason that nobles and civil servants have never had much contact with each other, but Zhao Xi is very special. He has read sage books since he was a child, and he looks gentle, but he is lively like a monkey. When I was a child studying with my uncle in the capital, I met Lou Jing by chance, and hit it off right away, as long as Lou Jing was in Beijing, I would come to him every now and then.

Two years ago, I went back to the south of the Yangtze River to devote myself to study and take the provincial examination. At the age of fourteen, I got to know Yuan. Zhao Xi ranked ninth in the family. None of the first eight cousins could compare with him. The word "Jiming" was taken.

"Hmph, grandpa asked me to take the next year's exam, saying that my quarrel at home caused him a headache, and he wanted to surprise you. Unexpectedly, I heard that you were going to marry the prince when I first came to Beijing!" Sitting down beside the bed, he took the cup that Yingqiu handed over, drank it up in two or three gulps, and said with a smile, "Thank you, sister, please give me another cup."

Covering her mouth with a handkerchief, Yingqiu smiled and refilled another cup of tea for him.

Zhao Xi took the cup, neither drank nor spoke, just looked at the person on the bed with great interest, as if examining how many days this seriously injured person could live.

Lou Jing raised her chin, Gao Yi and Yingqiu retreated knowingly.

"I handed in the greeting card, but An Guogong rejected it." Zhao Xi put away his gloating face and frowned, "He put you under house arrest?" An Guogong said that the prince was not in the mansion, so he went to Beijing As a result, the left commanding general of the Habayashi Army said that Lou Jing hadn't been there for several days, only then did he realize that something was wrong, and simply climbed over the wall and entered the Vermilion Bird Hall.

Lou Jing put down the book in her hand, and slowly changed her posture to lie on her stomach, "It's sort of."

Zhao Xi looked at Lou Jing's indifferent face, and suddenly became angry, "Then are you going to marry obediently?" He never understood why An Guogong didn't like Lou Jing, but over the years, he didn't. Seeing what kind of disadvantage Lou Jing suffered, why was he caught so easily this time

"I can't even walk, what else can I do?" Lou Jing yawned lazily, "It's not bad to marry into the East Palace, at least I don't have to go to war, my father will have to kowtow when he sees me in the future."

"You..." Zhao Xi was so angry that he jumped up immediately, "Nowadays, the concubine only favors you, and the prince is in decline. Do you think you can have a good life if you marry into the East Palace? If the prince doesn't like masculinity like the emperor, what will you do?"

Lou Jing quietly looked at the person jumping up and down, and smiled slowly, "Zhao Jiu, I have you as a friend, even if my father beats me to death, it's worth it." Zhao Xi's own temperament had something to do with it, but Zhao Xi was probably the only one who would do this only for him.

"Bah," Zhao Xi spat at him, "It's true that the emperor is not in a hurry to kill eunuchs. What time is this, and you are still talking nonsense."

Lou Jing put away her smile and said sternly: "The emperor has already issued an order on this matter, even if I have something to do with the sky, it is impossible for the emperor to take it back. Besides... have you heard about the Jingnanhou?"

"The emperor seems to intend to transfer Ding Nanhou back to the capital." Zhao Xi couldn't help lowering his voice when he said this. He is an unborn genius in the family, and the second uncle thinks highly of him, so he will tell this secret to the court. he.

Lou Jing nodded, pondered for a moment and said, "I heard that marrying me as the princess is the meaning of the empress."

"Ah!" Zhao Xi couldn't help exclaiming. The empress is the son of the Marquis of Jingnan. The Marquis of Jingnan has guarded the southeast area for so many years. At that time, accepting the crown princess was meant to appease the queen. The queen didn't take the opportunity to fight for more benefits for her family, but asked the prince to marry Lou Jing, an irrelevant person, why

Lou Jing ignored Zhao Xi's astonishment, but asked another matter, "What is Zuo's impression of the prince?"

Zhao Xi blinked. His impression was that his uncle didn't think too highly of the crown prince. The crown prince has always been well-behaved. He never took the initiative to make friends with anyone. "Do you think there is something wrong with the crown prince?"

Lou Jing knocked Zhao Xi's head dumbfounded, "Sooner or later, I will be killed by your broken mouth." Could it be casual to say that the prince has a problem

The author has something to say: The power was out at home today, and it has been off since morning until now, ah, Qianzuru has turned into a roasted bird~ It’s even later, I’m sorry everyone, I must remember to put the manuscript box in advance today, huh
