King Ying looked back at Lin Wan, and said to the eunuch, "Go and see who is up there." After speaking, he turned to Lin Wan and said, "Miss Lin, it's cold tonight, you should wear more clothes. ."
"Thank you for your concern." Lin Wan smiled stiffly. Knowing that she was going to meet the King tonight, she carefully matched her clothes and jewelry to show her beauty.
She went to great lengths to dress up, not for a man to remind her that it was cold.
Whether it's cool or not, she doesn't know what to do, and needs him to remind her
It's a pity that King Ying didn't understand her thoughts. Seeing the eunuch who accompanied her return, he frowned and said, "What's the matter? I asked you to find out who the person above is. What are you doing here?"
"My lord, this servant just remembered one thing." The eunuch accompanying him whispered, "In the past, every year during the Shangyuan Lantern Festival, the prince liked to enjoy the lanterns here."
"What kind of ragged hair is he..." The King of England paused, and he suddenly remembered that tomorrow is the day of the crown prince's birth mother Gonghui's funeral.
What kind of woman the Prince's biological mother, Concubine Hui, was, the King of England could not remember clearly, but only remembered that when Concubine Hui died, Ji Yuansu was less than five years old. After Ji Yuansu was crowned the crown prince, the concubine Hui was named queen by her father.
She is probably not a stunning beauty. If she hadn't given birth to a son who would please her father, she would have no sense of existence until she died.
"Since the prince is on top, we won't bother." Lin Wan had already inquired about the relationship of several princes before entering the capital, so she didn't want to cause conflicts between the two brothers at this time.
If rumors spread that the eldest son of the emperor was at odds with the crown prince on the night she met the King of England, how could she still be a person in the capital in the future
Not only her, but also her father's reputation will be affected.
"The prince can go, so can the king." King Ying was not very interested in the viewing platform at first, but after hearing that the prince was on it, he insisted on going up.
Lin Wan gently persuaded a few words, and seeing that King Ying's face was getting worse and worse, she had to shut her mouth.
The wind got stronger as she went up, Lin Wan touched her cold arm, looked up at the stage, and stopped. That figure is a prince, clearly like a woman.
She wanted to stop Prince Ying, but Prince Ying was already several steps ahead of her, so he gritted his teeth and followed.
"Someone's here?" Hua Liuli looked at the steps and met King Ying, who was hurriedly climbing up.
Looking at Hua Liuli's petite face, King Ying was inexplicably afraid to look into Hua Liuli's eyes. Probably because he knew that Hua Liuli almost became Princess Ying, and now he brought his fiancée over to stand with her, and he always felt a guilty conscience.
"Big brother." The prince came out of the shadows, he walked to Hua Liuli, and said to the dazed King Ying, "Big brother is so elegant today, come to enjoy the scenery too?"
He glanced at the young woman who was far behind the British King and guessed Concubine Xian's plan. It's a pity that Concubine Xian obviously overestimated her son's ability to coax women and let the King of England get along with his fiancée alone, not to cultivate feelings, but to hold him back.
King Ying climbed up to the viewing platform, noticed the cloak that obviously did not fit on Hua Liuli's body, turned his head and said to the prince with a sullen face: "I just happened to pass by, so I came here to have a look. I didn't expect it would be such a coincidence that I would meet the prince and Fushou. The princess is also here to enjoy the scenery."
Hua Liuli blessed King Ying and took a few steps back, wisely leaving this opportunity for "friendly communication" to the two brothers. Just standing in the corner, a young woman came up, with a posture like a weak willow supporting the wind, and Ye Feng lifted her skirt, as if it would be blown away by the wind.
Who is this
King Ying didn't say who was with him, and Hua Liuli didn't come forward to say hello, just nodded slightly.
Hua Liuli did not know Lin Wan, but Lin Wan knew Hua Liuli. When the King of England mentioned the words "Fu Shou County Master", she knew who the woman was standing with the prince to enjoy the scenery.
The face of the other party is more beautiful than she imagined, especially those watery eyes, it is easy to make people feel pity.
She knew that the King of England and the Fushou County Master had almost entered into a marriage contract earlier, and she felt a strange feeling in her heart. Seeing Hua Liuli nodding at her, she was blessed.
Perhaps it was because she had just entered Beijing and was still very unfamiliar with the capital, so she felt a sense of embarrassment when she stood on this viewing platform. From the time she came up to now, neither the prince nor the King of England gave her a second look, as if she didn't exist at all.
A gust of wind came, blowing on the palace wall and making a whimper.
"Is it cold?" Hearing King Ying's voice, Lin Wan raised her head to answer, but found that King Ying was not looking at herself, but the Princess Fushou.
"It's not cold, the cloak that His Royal Highness gave to the minister's daughter is very warm." Hua Liuli quickly shook her head. The King of England brought the woman to enjoy the scenery and ran to ask her if she was cold or not.
Isn't this drawing hatred for her? Unexpectedly, the King of England looks simple and honest, and he still knows a little about the tactics of palace fighting. After all, he is the prince from the palace, that is, he has more experience than others.
But she absolutely can't sit still. If there are any rumors that make people suspect that she is picking on men, it's really hard to tell if she jumps into the Yellow River.
Hua Liuli hurriedly took a few steps to the prince's side, so that the woman must see clearly that she came up with the prince and had nothing to do with King Ying.
"Prince, I'm afraid I forgot, Fushou County Master is fragile and can't blow the wind." King Ying sneered and looked at the Crown Prince, "If the County Master is made sick, how can you explain to General Hua and General Wei?"
The prince nodded: "Big brother is right." He turned to look at Hua Liuli, "County Lord, I will send you back alone."
It was rare for the prince to listen to him once, but the King of England just felt a little aggrieved.
"Okay." Hua Liuli didn't want to stay here to affect the rendezvous between the king and the woman, and quickly nodded in agreement.
"Be careful." The prince still put a handkerchief in the palm of his hand, and when Hua Liuli handed it over, he took her hand in the palm of his hand and led her down slowly.
The wide cloak was dragged on the ground, and under the illumination of the palace lantern, it exuded a faint golden light, which was the light of the golden thread embroidered in the cloak.
Lin Wan looked at the cloak that shone with stars in the dark night, turned her head to look at King Ying, and shivered from the cold.
"That's the future Princess of England, the girl of the Lin family." Walking down the viewing platform, the prince told Hua Liuli the identity of the strange woman. The little girl beside her almost became Princess Ying, but her reaction was very calm when she heard this.
"Oh." Hua Liuli nodded, she heard Jiamin mention about Princess Ying before, but now she's not too curious. She took off the cloak on her body, "Your Highness, this is yours."
"Let's put it on." The prince stood there, "it's late at night, let the maid take you back."
Hua Liuli nodded, she turned around and walked away. When he came to the corner, he looked back and saw that the prince was still standing in the same place, with his hands behind his back and his head looking up at the moon in the sky.
Seeing beauty under the moon, the more you look, the better.
She had already noticed that the prince was in a bad mood tonight, but as a foreign minister, she couldn't take care of too much of the prince's business, so she could only pretend that she didn't know anything.
It's a pity that she is beautiful and seductive. She suddenly felt that her conscience would be disturbed by just leaving the prince who was in a bad mood.
"His Royal Highness." Hua Liuli turned and walked in front of the prince, looking at him with a smile, "It's so lively outside the palace, do you want to go and see it together?"
The prince looked at Hua Liuli dazedly, and suddenly smiled: "Okay."
"The county master..." Iris saw that her master had to leave the palace late at night for the sake of beauty, and whispered, "You haven't been back for so long, do you want to send someone to tell the lady?"
"Yurong." Hua Liuli said to another maidservant, "Go back and tell your mother, I went out to buy beautiful lanterns with His Royal Highness."
After Yu Rong refused, she dragged the prince and left.
The palace maid brought a fitting cloak to Hua Liuli to put on, and the prince put the cloak that Hua Liuli had replaced directly on himself, and smiled at Hua Liuli: "Go."
When the palace attendants saw that the prince had really abducted Fushou County Master out of the palace to play, they called the guards and prepared horses. On the other hand, Iris' expression was relatively calm, and she quickly followed behind Hua Liuli.
It is said that the general was shocked when he saw his wife, and he wanted to marry his wife after being beaten and scolded. Seeing such a good-looking prince, the princess of her family just accompanies him to go out to see the lanterns, which is considered subtle.
The ancestral love of beauty in the Hua family cannot be changed.
Walking out of the palace, it seems that even the wind outside is a little more smokey. The two came to one of the busiest streets, where couples of lovers were talking and laughing, Hua Liuli sighed: "Tonight, it is full of malice towards people who don't have a partner."
She saw that many shops were holding activities to give lanterns by guessing riddles. She felt that although she could not guess riddles, she could still spend money on lanterns. So I spent money to buy the most beautiful lantern and sent it to the prince: "His Royal Highness, for you."
The prince laughed dumbly: "For the orphan?"
"A flower lantern is a gift for a beauty. This lantern is most suitable for Your Highness to carry." Hua Liuli coughed lightly, covering the corner of her mouth with a handkerchief, "Go, let's go ahead and take a look."
The prince lifted the lantern and looked at it carefully. It was a fox worshiping the moon lantern. The naive fox had a bit of agility in his eyes.
fox
As Hua Yingting's daughter, Hua Liuli has been fascinated by her eyes and ears, and she has learned how to make beautiful women happy since she was a child.
Say nice things, watch the moonlight with the scenery, the most important thing is to buy, buy, buy.
It's a pity that Qinghanzhou doesn't have too many places to spend money, and there is no beauty that she wants to coax. The prince is the first person she practiced.
On the open-air stage, there are beauty lantern festivals held by major beauty squares, and the stage is crowded with excited men, applauding and shouting for the beauties they like.
There are food vendors not far away, the table is full of people, and there are yamen patrolling from time to time, which is noisy and lively.
Walking to the river, men and women, old and young, set off lanterns and make wishes around the bank. There are many lanterns floating on the river, like the twinkling stars in the Milky Way.
Hua Liuli gave Iris a wink, and Iris immediately bought two river lanterns.
"Do you want to make a wish, Your Highness?" Hua Liuli handed the river lantern to the prince.
The prince took the light and looked up at the river where the lights were flickering: "Gu never believes in this."
"It doesn't matter, the ministers and daughters don't believe it either." Hua Liuli walked to the river and waved to the prince standing by the riverbank, "Your Highness, it doesn't matter if you believe it or not, but the sense of ceremony is very important."
The prince handed the fox moon-watching lantern to the guard behind him, took the river lantern and walked to Hua Liuli: "What does the princess wish for tonight?"
"I don't seem to be lacking anything, and I don't have any wishes to fulfill." Hua Liuli looked at the reflection of the moonlight on the water, lit the lamp with flint, and squatted down to look at the prince, "Then wish His Highness's wishes come true?"
The river lantern swayed gently on the water, and the prince imitated Hua Liuli and put the lamp up: "You don't know what Gu's wish is."
"That's not important, the important thing is to participate." Hua Liuli put her hands on her cheeks and looked at the prince with a smile, "Your Highness, many things don't have to have results, just be happy."
The prince chuckled softly and watched as the two river lanterns drifted away slowly. How many people's wishes were carried by the river under his feet
"Then I would like to thank the princess."
In the Dali Temple at this time, the Dali Temple Minister complained to his subordinates with a sad face: "That second prince of Jin Po Kingdom is still unwilling to eat?"
"I'm about to resign, and there are still people looking for trouble for Laozi." Dali Siqing looked at the moon outside the window, the moon was about to reach the sky.
"Let him starve if he doesn't eat, just not die."
Pei Jihuai saw the grief on his face, so he took the initiative to say, "Sir, let's go and have a look."
"This official sees that this second prince is not a good thing, and he has become a prisoner, and he wants to see the daughter of the general." Zhang Shuo snorted, "When this is still the country of Jin Po, there should be hostages. like!"
Pei Jihuai persuaded a few words, then turned around and went to the prison.
The second prince of Jin Po Kingdom has a special status, and Dali Temple has sent many people to guard it. Now people have been locked in Dali Temple for nearly ten hours, and the water has not yet entered, and they do not know what is going on.
If he really wanted to die, he would have found an opportunity to commit suicide on the way, how could he have only started to do it when he arrived in the capital.
If someone asked Ava if he was hungry, he would definitely yell at him without hesitation. But as the most valued second prince of the Jin Po Kingdom, he felt that he could not be kept silently in the Dajin cell, which was abusing the prisoners.
After making trouble for a whole day, he has long lost his strength, and with no one paying attention to him, he has no meaning to make trouble again. I just want to go to bed early so I don't feel hungry.
When he was about to fall asleep in a daze, someone walked in. He quickly sat up, opened his eyes wide, and tried to look tenacious.
"His Royal Highness Ava." Pei Jihuai asked his subordinates to bring the table in and put it in front of Ava: "I heard that your Highness did not get any water today, and this official was very worried, so he specially made a table of good dishes for your Highness to taste. "
"No." Ava swallowed, "I won't eat anything until you call Hua Liuli."
"It seems that His Highness is not hungry anymore." Pei Jihuai glanced at Ava with a half-smiling smile, kicked over a table of delicious food in front of him, and crushed it with soap boots, "It's my official's fault, I forgot. In addition to being unaccustomed to the soil and water in the capital, His Highness will have to fast for two days."
The whole cell was filled with the smell of food, and Ava stared at the Jin official hungry hungry: "What do you mean?"
"It doesn't make any sense. Your Highness is not satisfied with the soil and water. If this official insists on letting you eat, it will kill your life." After Pei Jihuai said this, he turned around and left.
"Wait, my Highness wants to see Hua Liuli!"
"His Royal Highness." Pei Jihuai said in a cold tone across the prison door: "As a proton of a country, you have a low status, and it is really offensive to call me the county master by name."
"There's no reason, my Highness is the prince and the future king of Jin Po."
"Your Highness thinks that Jinper's compensation is not enough for the city?" Pei Jihuai took the whip from his subordinate and played with it, "If you really have such an idea, this official can write a letter to your majesty for you."
"You, you..." Ava didn't expect that even a minor official in the Jin Dynasty would dare to sneer at him.
"Your Highness will be hungry if you don't eat." Pei Jihuai turned around and walked out, "When Your Highness wants to eat, this official will come to see you."
Most of the captives who are disobedient are full of food. It is enough to be hungry for two meals, or two days if they are not satisfied.
A proton should look like a proton. A defeated prince came to the Jin Dynasty to set the scene. Is it true that Dali Temple has no means to clean up people
"Lord Pei, after you treat Prince Ava like this, will His Majesty blame you?" His subordinates were a little worried.
"Don't worry." Pei Jihuai threw the whip to his subordinates, turned over and said, "If Your Majesty treats him favorably, why would he imprison him in Dali Temple."
Who are the people imprisoned in Dali Temple, can your Majesty not know
"There are a lot of people on the street tonight. I'll go outside to see if anyone is making trouble." Pei Jihuai urged, "Don't give that Prince Ava food and water for ten hours. Let him know what it means to be obedient."
"Subordinates take orders."
Pei Jihuai patted the horse and disappeared into the night.
The subordinates murmured to themselves why this Prince Ava was always making a fuss about wanting to see the daughter of the Hua family, and also looked like he hated her.
I don't know, I thought the daughter of the Hua family had lost him.
On the crowded street, Hua Liuli didn't dare to buy street food for the prince to eat, so he only took him to join in the little fun on the street, such as hooping, throwing pots, throwing darts and so on.
The two did not spare money, and the small prizes they got were distributed to the children watching the fun.
"The county lord's way of throwing darts is really good."
"Although the minister's daughter is not in good health, she has learned some self-protection methods from her family." Hua Liuli withdrew from the dart-throwing booth, "This method is nothing."
Perhaps because he was having fun, the prince found that Hua Liuli's complexion was not too pale tonight, and even had a faint blush.
In the middle of the game, the maid served her and took a pill. He didn't know what it was made of, but he could smell a faint herbal fragrance.
In the middle of the moon, the people who were having fun had begun to disperse. The prince looked at the gradually empty street: "It's halfway through the night, we should go back."
"Okay." Hua Liuli put the purchased civet cat mask on her face and turned her face to the prince, "Your Highness, have you heard a rumor?"
"what?"
"Actually, cats and tigers are close relatives. The ancestors of cats are as powerful as tigers. They are the kings of the mountain." As she spoke, she opened her hands and said "Ow" to the prince.
"Well, a very fierce... tiger." The prince flexed his index finger and tapped lightly on the mask, "There is a tiger missing in the solitary animal garden, why don't I take you back to raise it. Although it is a little small, Jiao It's a little bit, so I don't dislike it."
"His Royal Highness?!" Pei Jihuai looked at the prince in disbelief, and quickly got off his horse, "Why are you here?"
And still with a young girl
Dali Temple is well-informed, and he has not heard which girl in the capital the prince is getting close to. Standing side by side with His Royal Highness, this little girl wearing a civet cat mask, gorgeous clothes, white and delicate hands, one can tell that she is a pampered woman.
Hua Liuli was about to take off the mask, but the prince stretched out his hand and gently pressed the mask on her face, preventing her from taking it off.
"Shangyuan Lantern Festival is so lively, I walk around alone."
Noticing the prince's actions, Pei Jihuai stopped looking at the girl and said, "Your Highness wants to go back to the palace, Wei Chen will escort you."
The prince wanted to say no, but he glanced sideways at Hua Liuli and said lightly, "Keep up."
Hua Liuli held the mask, turned her head to look at Pei Jihuai who was following them honestly, and whispered to the prince, "This seems to be Pei Shaoqing from Dali Temple?"
"Do you remember him?" The prince nodded, "It's him."
Pei Jihuai lowered his head and pretended that he didn't hear the two of them talking. He has stayed in Dali Temple for nearly five years and is very sensitive to human voices. So as soon as I hear this girl speak, I can be sure that I have seen her recently.
"His Royal Highness, when the captive Ava came to the capital for the first time, he was unaccustomed to the conditions and conditions. For the sake of his body, Wei Chen asked people to cut off his food tomorrow." Pei Jihuai said, "I don't know if there is anything wrong with Wei Chen?"
The prince stopped and glanced at the masked person beside him: "It's good, I can give him some water and food the day after tomorrow."
"The minister obeys." Pei Jihuai pretended to mention Zhang Shuo unintentionally, "In order to avoid the assassins' robbery, the Dali Temple Secretary Zhang is still in the Dali Temple Secretary to ensure Ava's safety."
"Zhang Shuo has always acted prudently. Whether it's the solitary person or his father, he believes in him very much." The prince seemed to say casually, "However, the major cases in Dali Temple should be dealt with more quickly."
"Prince please rest assured, Wei Chen and others will do their best." Pei Jihuai's eyes were shining, and he bowed to the prince gratefully. The meaning of the prince's words is clearly to say that His Majesty will not remove the official position of Lord Zhang.
Thinking about it again, he will understand. How could the Crown Prince let King Ying's father-in-law manage such an important department of Dali Temple
Although their Lord Zhang is not an official of the East Palace faction, but he is not biased towards other princes, so it is most suitable for him to be the head of the Dali Temple.
When Pei Jihuai sent the prince into the palace, and saw that the girl who never showed her face walked into the palace gate with the prince, he woke up. Could the woman who can enter the palace with the prince be the princess
But the relationship between the prince and the three princesses is not too close.
Hua Liuli took off her mask and didn't ask the prince why she was not allowed to show her face in front of Pei Jihuai. She smiled and said, "Have you had a good time tonight, Your Highness?"
The prince looked at the little girl's sparkling eyes: "I am very happy tonight."
"Just be happy." Hua Liuli stood on tiptoe and patted the crown prince on the shoulder: "Your Highness, you are a young boy, don't worry about any sad things, there are many things in this world that are worth being happy about."
After speaking, he took a step back and waved to the prince: "It's time for the minister and daughter to go back. Your Highness, go back and have a good rest."
She turned around and trotted two steps, turned back and smiled at the prince, coughed a few times while clutching her chest, and walked in the direction of Shoukang Palace, surrounded by maids and palace maids.
The prince looked at the back of her leaving, shook the fox moonlight lantern in his hand, and suddenly laughed.
Hua Liuli crept into the side hall, and the candles in the room suddenly lit up.
"Want to come back? Yu Rong clearly told me that you will return at noon." General Wei sat upright, looking blankly at his daughter who had only returned in the middle of the night.
"Mother." Hua Liuli hugged General Wei's arm with a flattering face, "I just played late for a little while, so don't be mad at me."
"Does the prince look good?" General Wei asked with a stern face.
"It looks good." Hua Liuli nodded, "I just thought he seemed a little unhappy, so I wanted to make him smile, and did nothing else."
General Wei looked at his daughter as if he were looking at a little pink pig who had finally learned to bow cabbage. He pinched his beloved daughter's cheek with a sullen face: "At a young age, you learned your father's ability to coax beauty."
"How can it be the same." Hua Liuli took the opportunity to hug General Wei's arms: "Dad only has mother in his heart, and daughter can't bear the sadness of beauty."
"I thought that you were interested in the prince." General Wei was reluctant to blame his daughter, and when her daughter acted like a spoiled child, she lost her principle: "If you really like the prince, your mother will always think of a way to win people over for you."
"Mother, I have nothing but admiration for the crown prince, not admiration." Hua Liuli was afraid that her mother would really go to propose marriage to His Majesty, and hurriedly said, "I just want to accompany you under your knees and raise a few friends by the way. First, don't spoil a good man like the prince."
"That's fine." General Wei nodded, "Royal man, how can you know how to make people happy."
"Mother, don't let Daddy hear what you said." Hua Liuli said quickly, "Otherwise he will doubt whether you are bothering."
"Tsk." General Wei patted the top of Hua Liuli's head, "I see you follow me with your attractive face, but your ability to coax people follows your father."
"Mother, you are the female general who guards the territory, and I am a delicate and sickly beautiful woman. It's different, it's different."
"Huh." General Wei chuckled softly.
The author has something to say: Prince: Huh? Are your florists such a scumbag
Big Pig's Hoof. Liuli: I just made mistakes that many women make, such as liking beautiful women.
