Chapter 032 Banquet 3

We haven't read the content of that memorial, and no one knows what it is written. Seeing Li Yuan looking at Li Shimin like this, I knew that what was written in the memorial must have something to do with Li Shimin, and it must not be a good thing. However, Li Shimin was not afraid of his eyes. He asked, "Father, you can't believe a word easily."

Li Yuan sneered and said, "Naturally, I don't believe it easily. It's just that this memorial happened to appear in your hall!"

Li Shimin bowed to him and said, "If your father believes in his son, please give him a time, and he will definitely find out this matter!"

Li Yuan squinted at him and thought for a while, "You will have to give me an answer at the time of Shangyuan, but you have to take half a step out of the palace during this time!" If the result can't be found in the end, don't blame your father for completely investigating publicly.

"My son obeys the order!" Li Shimin thanked him. Li Yuan glanced at the memorial, and the eunuch beside him held the memorial and handed it to Li Shimin. Li Yuan said above, "The prince will stay, and the others will leave first!"

Li Shimin and I left the two halls, and the night was still quiet, but the night wind was getting colder. I asked Li Shimin, "Your Highness, do you have a clue?" Li Shimin's eyes were deep after coming out of the two halls. He locked his eyebrows: "You have already said what you should say. Don't mind your own business next."

"But..." "Go back!"

Li Shimin walked away with his hands behind his back. I watched his gradually fading figure, and the note in his hand shone under the hazy Taoist candle. I was secretly worried about what secrets were remembered in it. It was worth being framed like this. Can Li Shimin be completely knocked down?

At this time, the light in front of the door of Liangyi Hall flashed, and Li Jiancheng came out of it and couldn't help but be slightly surprised to see me. I'm afraid he thinks I'm waiting for him, in fact, otherwise. Sure enough, Li Jiancheng approached with a smile and wanted to send me back to the court. I didn't refuse and walked slowly on the road with him. After thinking for a while, I finally asked him, "What did the prince think about this?"

Li Jiancheng's face was slightly silent, but soon smiled softly and said to me, "This matter has been handed over to the King of Qin to solve by himself. You and I'd better not ask, so as not to mess up his thoughts." He paused, reached out and took my hand, and his eyes gurgling. I broke free slightly. He patted his forehead awkwardly and said, "Xi Ran, can you give me a seat?"

I said, "Prince, I have been giving you a seat. That position is the high prince, the master, and even the king who will rule the world in the future. I dare not cross the line.

Li Jiancheng smiled bitterly: "Don't you dare or don't want to." He pulled me in, and grief flashed in his eyes, "I don't want to guess who the person in your heart is, and you don't want to show who that person is, otherwise... otherwise I'm afraid I can't control it and can't let go!"

I pushed him away and put on a fierce face and said, "Prince, don't continue like this. This will only make the maidservant roll into a deeper harem. I don't want this!"

Li Jiancheng was relieved and breathed a long sigh of relief: "So, this is the reason why you refused me." He looked at me, but his eyes were confused. "If that's the case, I'll be convinced."

Looking at him like this, I felt a trace of guilt in my heart: "I don't know why, I always feel that there is an insurmountable gap between you and me. The chasm is full of beautiful flowers and bright sunshine, but I can't cross it, and it seems that someone has been telling me in my ear that the world on the other side should not be mine.

Li Jiancheng turned his back to me and faced an empty square: "You know that the world on the other side should not be yours, but I don't know if I will eventually reach the other side. Maybe he has drowned on the shore before he arrived, just like now.

A moment of softness will eventually lead to a big mistake!

My heart was faintly sad with his lonely back. Li Jiancheng turned around and smiled stiffly: "If according to your reason, I, Li Jiancheng, as long as you are alone and won't let you fall into the harem struggle, you still won't accept it, right?"

"I..." In the face of him, what he thought was unspeakable. In the palace, Li Jiancheng was good to me, and I... I bit and shook my head faintly. A chilling light suddenly flashed in Li Jiancheng's eyes, and I still said, "I don't know. Prince, you shouldn't do this for me, I..."

"Don't care whether I should or not, do you think you will?" Li Jiancheng took a step closer and dared not invade me like a sacred object, but he couldn't help approaching. He only asked me from a distance.

"Let me think about it." I really have a headache, and I still need time to adapt to change my mind. Li Jiancheng was more energetic than the previous frustration and continued to walk side by side on the road with me. The journey seems to be very long. He doesn't speak, and I have nothing to say. When they arrived at the court, the two only smiled faintly at each other. I walked to the court, and he returned to the East Palace. Finally, there were two opposite directions, separated by the powerful Taiji Palace!

On the first day of the first month, the day of Sanyuan. That is, the year, the time, and the month.

On this day, everything needed for the imperial ceremony has been furnished, the musicians and dancers have been prepared in the apse, and the ministers came to the hall with great interest from their families.

I helped Princess Qin follow Li Shimin to congratulate Li Yuan. Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji were already there, and everyone looked at us. Of course, I know that they don't look at me. Li Shimin and Princess Qin are the most important thing at this time, but I also know that there will be one person. He is watching me slowly step in with a smile. At the same time, I also feel another kind of gaze, which makes me feel uncomfortable. I looked up and looked over there. Li Jiancheng and the crown princess's eyes were so-called the opposite. Li Yuan above also smiled. Yesterday's incident never seemed to have happened, and he still cared about Li Shimin and Princess Qin.

After the worship, I helped Princess Qin to the Great Hall. Except for the one in prison, the ministers were no worse, and the disappearance of the man did not cause any discussion. It can be seen that Meng Changde's popularity is not good in the court, so he really has no behind the scenes. Is it really nothing to do with this matter?

As he thought about it, Li Yuan had already sat down, his face was red, his big hands were waved, and the melodious command was passed down to the hall.

On New Year's Day, you must drink pepper and cypress wine, Tusu wine, peach soup, and eat five spicy plates, glue teeth, etc., in the as to eliminate the epidemic and prolong life.

I stepped back behind them and stood by the pillar. A row of palace girls walked from the outside of the hall and brought auspicious dishes. Princess Qin pushed everything for Li Shimin in front of him. Li Shimin squeezed his lips and smiled at her, showing a small and deep wine. I couldn't help frowning, but I was also strange. This is the first time I have clearly seen Li Shimin's wine. How can I have such a strange feeling about Li Shimin's wine? This feeling is unclear, as if I have known each other, as if it is a secret that can't be solved.

In the spirit, the hall has completed the epidemic and longevity ceremony, and the feast is in full swing.

"Biography: wild boar, Lingsha, Xiaoling, Goose and duck, deer tail sauce, red fragrance, nectar soup, camel hoof soup, Li Gong soup..."

At the banquet, Li Shimin pointed to a plate of shrimp and smiled and said to Princess Qin, "This is a bright shrimp, made of raw shrimp. This flower case is decorated with shrimps as a lantern pattern, and because it is needed for the imperial banquet, there are only five shrimps per circle." With that, Li Shimin opened his palm and glanced at me faintly. When he talked to Princess Qin, I also listened to it. He found it and couldn't help looking down to other places.

The banquet was very lively and had a whole day of joy. At the end of the banquet, Li Shimin was a little drunk. Several eunuchs helped him back to Chengqian Hall, and Princess Qin and I followed them. I saw the expression of Princess Qin and guessed that she should have understood the two halls last night, and what she was worried about at this time was exactly what I was worried about. Li Yuan ordered Li Shimin to investigate the reason for the disguised Nuo dancer and the memorial at the time of Shangyuan. On this day, Li Shimin did not do anything, but was drunk.

When I was about to arrive at Chengqian Hall, I accidentally saw someone behind the house. I took a closer look at Li Jiancheng. Since he did not intend to enter Chengqian Hall, he should have come to me. I helped Princess Qin into the hall and waited for a while to retreat. As soon as I walked to the outside of the hall, a figure flashed with a faint smell of wine. Why hasn't the prince returned to the East Palace yet? I asked.

Although Li Jiancheng also drank wine, he didn't look drunk. He smiled lightly and walked slowly with me: "I came to ask you specifically, have you made up?"

On this day, I didn't think about what I asked last night. I couldn't help but feel embarrassed by him. In a hurry, I randomly took a sentence and asked, "Something just happened in the palace. How can the prince always keep his children's private feelings in mind? When I have an answer, I will tell the prince."

Li Jiancheng stopped, and I looked back. His eyes were faintly sad, and the corners of his mouth smiled bitterly: "No matter how hard I try, it's always so difficult to get your affirmative answer."

I tried to imagine it at this moment, but I couldn't think about the days with him. My heart was stuffy, and I shook my head: "You...you shouldn't..."

"Why not? It's happier to get you than to get the world!" Li Jiancheng interrupted my words and took my hand firmly. I suddenly wondered that he is the prince today. Why is he not afraid of the world?

When Li Jiancheng saw my hesitation and doubts, he did not force me and let go with a disappointed face. I was angry and grabbed him back on the shoulder and said, "Don't go." Li Jiancheng looked at me deeply, and his eyes were full of expectation and loneliness. I said to him, "Two people need to trust each other when they are together. Can you?"

Li Jiancheng was very excited and held my hand on his shoulder and covered it in the palm of his hand: "I have always believed you, whether you and I are good or not!"

I smiled and nodded as he leaned on him with my shoulder. The night wind blew very cold, and his body was faintly warm, but it couldn't warm the hands I put in his heart.

When I returned to the court, Mother Chen greeted me happily and pulled me to my room before she said anything. I saw two rows of maid eunuchs standing straight in front of my door, holding a tray in each hand. When the leading eunuch saw me, his sharp tone immediately cut through the quiet and cold night sky.

"The maid of honor, Mo Xiran: It is good to serve the princess Qin, and the king of Qin specially gave me a good product to celebrate the first day! Gift: sweet snow, noble concubine red, jade dew group, fairy, bright shrimp.

With his oral biography, the maid and the eunuch came into my room with the good products in their hands. Mother Chen pushed me into the room. I almost thought I had gone to the wrong room. Everything in it seemed to have been replaced. Mother Chen said that it was also the Qian Hall who sent someone to sort it out.

After passing on the good products, the leading eunuch walked into the room and said to me, "His Royal Highness the King of Qin ordered to introduce the good products given to me one by one."

"So there is a father-in-law." I nodded respectfully, and he smiled and began to follow the introduction.

"Sweet snow, the thick noodles cooked with honey over a slow fire, which tastes like snow; the noble concubine is red, refined red crispy snacks; Yulu ball, milk crisp carving; fairy, chicken pieces are mixed with milk; bright shrimp is made of raw shrimp, the specific method is to make a lantern pattern with shrimp."

After that, the leading eunuch nodded respectfully to me and left with the eunuch outside the door. Mother Chen stayed in my room and looked at the new furnishings and good products, but I couldn't be happy. At this time, M Mother Chen's attitude towards me was different from before. When she saw that I didn't say anything, she thought I was unhappy with her and said a few words of concern to Tianhan and left.
