The romantic of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 231 The Date of the White Goose

In the Laoshan Palace, in the bedroom of the prayer hall, Li Hong, the prince in a light yellow single robe, walked around the empty room anxiously. Even if the night was quite deep, there was still no sleepiness. From time to time, he glanced at the screen at the door of the room, which was similar.

"Your Highness."

Just as Li Hong was anxious, a sound of gentle footsteps suddenly sounded in the quiet night. Even when he saw a burly young man turning out of the screen, he walked to Li Hong in a few steps, bowed and called softly.

"Why did you come here? I've been waiting for most of the day."

As soon as he saw the person coming, Li Hong immediately showed a strange flush on his face, and he complained angrily. His expression was as if he was acting coquettish with the person.

"Your Highness is wrong about Lin Yi. It's that someone doesn't want to come earlier. In fact, several friends in the team are too interested. They really can't get out of it. Let Your Highness wait for a long time. They are all wrong."

The person surnamed Lin, a single word Yi, is the top actress in the East Palace troupe, and also the most favored believer of Li Hong in the East Palace. His degree of "friendship" is that Wang Dequan, who grew up with Li Hong, is slightly inferior. At this time, when he saw Li Hong's reproach, Lin Yi was not nervous and timid at all, but was extremely gentle. After explaining for a while, it looks like a group of adults coaxing children.

"That group of people really deserve to die. They are so crazy. They can't forgive them when they turn around!"

Li Hong stamped his feet and buried a sentence angrily. There was a tendency to act coquettishly to the end.

"Your Highness doesn't care about villains. Isn't someone coming?"

Lin Yi obviously didn't care about Li Hong's threatening words. He just shook his head with a smile. He looked at Li Hong like "love and pity" and said a word of comfort.

"Forget it, I'm too lazy to care about them. Alas, I will be in Luoyang in two days. I'm so annoyed. Yijun quickly helped me make an idea and finally had to push the marriage." Naturally, Li Hong will not really get along with a group of low-ranking actors, but just say it casually. As soon as the conversation turns, he has already talked about business.

"Your Highness, aren't you embarrassed? Don't let Yan Xiang, Hao Xiang and other De Gao ask. How dare you ask such a big thing?" Hearing Li Hong's words, a wry smile immediately appeared on Lin Yi's face, shrugged his shoulders, and answered helplessly.

"They, hum, they will only persuade me to answer this marriage. They talk about me every day. Hum, I'm not a child. Why do they have to teach me? I don't care. Yijun must come up with a good idea for me!" As soon as Lin Yi's voice fell, Li Hong jumped up like a cat that had been trampled on its tail. He complained angrily. The rudeness of a group of children could not have the calm and elegant prince demeanor.

"Your Highness, you are being forced, so..."

Lin Yi had a thick face, but at this time, he wrinkled with bitterness and shook his head helplessly.

"I don't care, I don't care, if Yijun doesn't come up with an idea, I won't stop!"

The prince stamped his feet, acted like a fool, and shouted and interrupted Lin Yi's words.

"Oh, that's it, think about it." Lin Yi obviously couldn't do anything about Li Hong. He sighed. After bowing his head and thinking about it, his eyes suddenly lit up and said with a smile, "Your Highness, have you ever heard the allusion of Su Wu's shepherd?"

"Huh? Su Wu's shepherd? Why did Yijun say that? Li Hong was so smart, but he couldn't figure out that his marriage had anything to do with Su Wu's shepherd. He narrowed his eyes and asked doubtfully.

"Your Highness, don't worry. Listen to someone in detail. It is said that Su Wu's ability to return to the country depends on the work of Bai Yan's biography. This white geese is also a sign of auspiciousness, which is extraordinary. If Your Highness makes people say that the wedding must be congratulated by Bai Yan, it is not difficult to delay this matter. After a long time, you can be relieved calmly. What should you worry about? Solution?" Lin Yi shook his sleeves with a smile and slowly came out what he thought.

"White goose? OK, that's it. Yijun is really wise. I didn't see you wrong. Okay, that's great. I'll let the people of the Ministry of Ceremonies get the capital tomorrow!" As soon as he heard Lin Yi's words, Li Hong immediately became excited, clapped his hands, laughed happily, and fell to Lin Yi while laughing.

"Your Highness..."

In the face of Li Hong's embrace, Lin Yi did not mean to dodge at all. He called with pity, stretched out his hand, and held Li Hong tightly in his arms...

On the first day of May of Xianheng's second year, it was sunny. At noon, the sky was cloudless, and the hot sun was baking the earth. The heat wave was extremely hot. There were even layers of water-like ripples in the air. Even if there was a flower cover, the heat was still extremely difficult to endure. Not to mention a group of old and weak ministers, It was Li Xian who was so hot that he was sweating all over. I don't know how many pieces of white silk he wiped. In his heart, he couldn't wait to end this annoying job quickly. However, he couldn't do this. At least before the prince's driver arrived, whether it was Li Xian or a group of courtiers who came to the suburbs to meet him by order. We can only stand honestly under the scorching sun, allowing the heat wave to turn themselves into water people.

"Dad..."

Just as everyone was waiting a little impatient, a dull sound of horses' hoofs suddenly sounded faintly. Even when they saw a team of golden armored cavalry holding various banners turning out of the mountain road in the distance, the crowd waiting quietly stood up in an instant.

I'll go, and this one has finally arrived! Li Qianjing was very good. At first glance, he saw the emblem on the bright yellow flag clearly. He couldn't help but feel relieved, but his face became awe-inspiring. He waved his hand and shouted, "Play music!" At this time, the drum team, which had been on standby for a long time, immediately blew hard, and the sound of drum music became a piece of excitement.

"My brother Li Xian (Li Xulun) was ordered to lead the ministers to welcome the prince's brother!"

A gold chrome car, surrounded by hundreds of cavalry, slowly drove to the people in the suburbs. Before the door opened, Li Xian and Li Xulun had already hurried up to meet them. They bowed and made a big salute, according to the regulations and reported aloud.

"It's time for the two virtuous brothers, let's all be flat."

After a short silence in the carriage, a pale hand stretched out from the curtain of the car and gave a slight signal. Even if he saw several little eunuchs waiting next to the car roll up the curtain, the pale-faced Li Hong leaned out of the inside, held the hands of a group of small eunuchs, got out of the carriage, and walked slowly to Li Xian and Li Xu. In front of the wheel, he smiled warmly, raised his hand and ordered softly.

"My brother is waiting for the prince's brother Long En."

Li Xian and Li Xulun heard Taizi shouting and did not dare to neglect. After thanking each other, they stood up straight.

"I'm afraid it's not good to wait for a long time on this hot day. Let the ministers disperse first. Let's talk about it later."

Li Hong looked around at the courtiers who bowed and greeted him with compassion.

"Brother Prince is wise!"

Li Hong wanted to sell well. Li Xianzi did not want to be a villain. After answering respectfully, he walked to a group of courtiers and loudly conveyed Li Hong's will. The courtiers who had already been hot and had been suffering from heatstroke were not unreasonable. They praised each other, and even if they fled, they all walked away cleanly. .

"I've met the sixth brother."

Li Xian sent all the ministers away, and then turned back. He saw that Li Xian, with a dark face, stood behind Li Hong's side at some point. He hurriedly walked a few steps, rushed forward, and arched his hand to greet him.

"Seventh brother, thank you for your hard work."

Li Xian didn't look well. Obviously, he didn't have any desire to talk. He just nodded and simply replied, then closed his mouth and listened to Li Hong cordially with Li Xulun.

"The prince's brother, father and mother are waiting in the palace, you see..."

Seeing that Li Hong was chatting with Li Xulun there, Li Xian couldn't help but be a little angry - the prince's itinerary itself can be adjusted. There is no need to arrive at the hottest time around noon. He can postpone the time to the evening when the sun is not so bright. In addition to acting so wanton, except for expressing dissatisfaction. In addition, there was no other intention, but it was clear that Li Xian could not care about this matter with the prince. He could only cough gently and moved out Gao Zong and Wu and then pressed Li Hong.

"Well, the seventh brother reminded me that I forgot the business when I was happy to see the little brother. Well, let's go to the palace together. Let's go to the eighth brother and ride with him."

Being so choke by Li Xian, Li Hong couldn't procrastinate any more. He could only accept Li Xian's reminder with a smile, nodded, and ordered apologetically.

"Brother prince, I dare not, my brother..."

Li Xulun has spent most of his time in Luoyang since he was sensible, and there was little intersection with Li Hong. When he listened to the prince's proposal to share the same car, he couldn't help but panic. He said that he didn't dare, but his eyes unconsciously looked at Li Xian with a smile, and his eyes were full of inquiry.

"The eighth brother doesn't need to be nervous. Come on, come with me."

As soon as he saw Li Xulun looking at Li Xian, Li Hong's smiling face couldn't help but freeze, but he didn't plan to give up. He waved his hand and said with a smile.

"It's so good that the little brother can take a ride with the sixth brother."

Li Xian knew what Li Hong's intention was to win over Li Xulun so much, but he didn't bother to pay more attention to it, let alone be stupid enough to expose it on the spot, so he smiled and made a suggestion.

"Well, the little brother talked about the prince's brother."

The person Li Xulun admired most was Li Xian. Hearing Li Xian's words, he no longer hesitated, saluted respectfully, and then followed Li Hong to the golden chrome car parked beside him.

After sending Li Hong to the carriage, Brother Li Xian quickly exchanged glances and did not delay any more. They walked shoulder to the second carriage in the queue. In a moment, the team slowly drove in the direction of the city gate...
