The prince is not doing his job [traveling]
Chapter 73
Xiao Yanzhi originally thought that Pei Ze's abnormality was only temporary, maybe it was because of the experience during this period that he felt it, and when the emotions subsided, Pei Ze would be able to return to normal, but Pei Ze used practical actions Proved he was a man of his word.
In the back garden of Shu Palace, Xiao Yanzhi was hugged by Pei Ze and sat on a grass field, a thin blanket wrapped both of them.
Leaning in front of Pei Ze, Xiao Yanzhi suddenly asked: "Are you really not planning to go to court?"
He was injured, so it was understandable not to go to court, but what did Pei Ze want to be absent from work with him?This is the fifth day.
Pei Ze lazily replied: "Didn't you just enter the palace this morning?"
Xiao Yanzhi twitched the corners of his mouth and said, "That's to pay homage to Father."
"Well, I visited Xu Lishan by the way."
Xiao Yanzhi turned his head to look at Pei Ze, and asked suspiciously, "Don't you think you've been a little too much lately? I think Xu Lishan has lost a couple of laps of weight. The things in the court must have made him burnt out, right?"
"Why didn't I realize that you cared so much about Xu Lishan before?" Pei Ze gave Xiao Yan a dissatisfied look, and then said, "If everything depends on you and me, he should abdicate earlier."
"That's what you say..." Xiao Yanzhi frowned, "But you can't just leave everything to him all of a sudden, can you?"
Why can't there be a gradual process?
Pei Ze was speechless, and said: "You only need to care about me. If Xu Lishan really encounters something that can't be solved, he will send someone to come. You don't need to worry about it."
Xiao Yanzhi turned his head to stare at Pei Ze and said, "What exactly do you want?"
Pei Ze's eyes were half closed, he lay lazily on Xiao Yanzhi's shoulder, and said, "I just want a three-year vacation."
Xiao Yanzhi raised his hand and patted Pei Ze's forehead, and said with a smile, "The majestic King Wu Cheng, the supreme commander in charge of Chang'an's military defense, asked for a three-year vacation, are you dreaming?"
"It's just to find a place to hide in peace, not to disappear from the world. The Sixteen Guards will be temporarily represented by Chu Liang and Kong Qing."
He just said that he wanted to take a vacation, but he didn't say that he would ignore the government affairs. He was not needed in the daily life of Chang'an City. Once something important happened, he would just go to him again?It is as if he will be trapped to death in Chang'an as long as he becomes King Wucheng.
Hearing the names of Chu Liang and Kong Qing at this time, Xiao Yanzhi turned to look at Pei Ze: "You have already planned it?"
Pei Ze rolled his eyes at Xiao Yan, and said as a matter of course: "Of course everything has been arranged."
Can he really just leave?In Xiao Yanzhi's opinion, is he such an irresponsible person?
Thinking of this, Pei Ze tilted his head and bit Xiao Yanzhi's neck unhappily.
"Hey! How do you bite?" Xiao Yanzhi stared at Pei Ze while covering his neck.
Pei Ze snorted softly, hugging Xiao Yan with a proud face.
"I've seen the King of Shu, I've seen the prince," Dong Gui reluctantly walked behind Pei Ze and Xiao Yan with his head lowered, his voice was almost inaudible, "I'm reporting to the prince, brothers and sisters Xiao Ren'an, please see me."
In the past, only the king of Shu had an unscrupulous look, he liked to cling to their lords when they had nothing to do, and didn't care about the eyes of others at all, but why have their lords acted like no one else recently?Although everyone in the whole family knew about the relationship between these two people, although there were no outsiders in the house, could they pay attention?Even a loving couple from an ordinary family wouldn't flirt with each other in broad daylight and in public, would they?Did the two consider how they, the bystanders, felt?
Obviously, neither Xiao Yanzhi nor Pei Ze had considered other people's feelings. Pei Ze still lay on Xiao Yanzhi's shoulder without moving, and Xiao Yanzhi still leaned in front of Pei Ze, without any embarrassment.
But Xiao Yanzhi was very happy when he heard that his siblings had returned to Beijing.
"They're back? Bring them here!"
"Eh..." Dong Gui glanced at Pei Ze and asked, "Do you want to receive the two princes in the main room?"
If they want to meet guests, at least they have to change their postures!
Pei Ze opened his eyes and glanced at Donggui, then said, "Just bring him here."
Since putting on the filial piety clothes, Xiao Yanzhi had to enter the palace every morning to offer incense in front of the late emperor's spiritual throne, and the rest of the time he stayed in the back garden and was unwilling to leave. He didn't know whether Xiao Yanzhi was thinking of it or saying goodbye, All he could do was sit here with Xiao Yanzhi.
Only then did Donggui turn and leave, and two quarters of an hour later he led the three brothers and sisters Xiao Ren'an and Liu Hanqing to the back garden.
"Brother!" Xiao Junmeng didn't care what kind of intimacy Pei Ze and Xiao Yanzhi were in at this moment, as soon as he saw Xiao Yanzhi, he walked over angrily, and tears came down halfway through, " Brother, you bastard! You actually conspired with the young master to deceive us!"
When the young master said that he would take them on a trip to Lingnan in person, she still felt strange, even if he was going to do business in Lingnan, he didn't have to bring all the people from Yan Mansion with him, right?Even those maidservants who couldn't take them with them were sent back to the original home by the young master, and the entire Yan Mansion was empty, and it looked more like a refugee.
When they walked halfway, they heard that the princes in Chang'an City seemed to be going to war in order to fight for power. Only then did they understand why the young master sent all the people from the Yan Mansion out.But at that time they had already arrived at Jiangnan Road, and it was not easy for the three of them to return alone. Brother Hanqing had already separated from them and turned to Xizhou, and the most important thing was that the young master did not allow them to come back. Got beaten for this.
Xiao Yanzhi turned his head to look at Xiao Junmeng, pretending to be angry and said: "You girl! I just put you in someone else's foster care for a while, who taught you to call your brother a jerk?"
Jun Meng really wronged him when he said this. Although he asked Yan Sheng to help take care of his younger siblings, when he remembered that he was going to send his younger siblings away, the Yan Mansion was already empty.
"Brother is a big bastard!" Xiao Junmeng cried and fell in front of Xiao Yanzhi, "Every time something happens, it will only send us away, do you know how worried we are?!"
Xiao Junmeng beat Xiao Yanzhi while talking.Pei Ze stepped back a little to avoid getting hurt.
As soon as Pei Ze retreated like this, the thin blanket that had been covering the two of them fell apart, revealing the filial piety clothes they were wearing.
Xiao Junmeng was startled, and looked at Xiao Yanzhi in a panic.
"Brother, you..."
Brother, is he going to keep his filial piety for the late His Majesty?
"It's okay," Xiao Yanzhi raised his hand and touched Xiao Junmeng's head, then turned his head to look at Xiao Ren'an and Xiao Xiangsheng, and said with a smile, "you can find a place to sit by yourself, brother, I can't stand up now, so I can only Let you sit down."
After hearing the first half of the sentence, Xiao Ren'an, Xiao Xiangsheng and Liu Hanqing, who was deliberately ignored, began to find a place to sit down, but when they heard the last sentence, the three of them turned pale with shock.
"Brother, your... legs..." Xiao Xiangsheng looked at Xiao Yanzhi's legs covered by the hem of his clothes, and his tongue got stuck in fright.
Seeing that the faces of several people turned pale with fright, Xiao Yanzhi quickly lifted up the hem of his clothes to expose his legs, and said with a smile, "Why are you all thinking about scary things? It's just a slight injury, and it's not convenient to walk around for a while."
Xiao Junmeng looked at Xiao Yanzhi suspiciously, then turned to Pei Ze and said, "My lord, is that so?"
Ever since she came to Chang'an, her brother couldn't tell the truth, and she no longer believed in him!
Xiao Yan was startled, then shook his head and laughed.
Pei Ze nodded and said, "Well, as long as your brother is honest, it will be fine."
"Then you must watch over my brother, and don't let him move around!" Xiao Junmeng said seriously, "If you really can't control him, tie him up and tie him to the bed!"
Xiao Yanzhi couldn't help but slap Xiao Junmeng on the head, and said with a helpless smile, "Whose sister are you?"
Still tied to the bed?How did this girl come up with such a bad idea?
Xiao Junmeng curled her lips and said, "Who made brother so unreliable."
Xiao Yanzhi rolled his eyes greatly, and then asked Xiao Ren'an, "Did you encounter anything interesting during this trip?"
Unexpectedly, Xiao Ren'an, who has always had no complaints against Xiao Yanzhi, also complained: "Where can we encounter interesting things? I heard something happened in the capital on the way, and I can't laugh at even interesting things. Xiangsheng came back to Chang'an. Things, and was punished by the young master."
Hearing this, Xiao Yanzhi chuckled lightly.
"Sure enough, they're all here," Xiao Chunyue led a few maidservants, and came with tea and fruits, "I heard from Lian Sheng that Ren'an and the others are here, but I didn't see anyone in the main room, so I guess you are here Come to speak with me."
"Sister." The three of Xiao Ren'an shouted obediently.
Xiao Chunyue smiled at the three of them, then walked to Xiao Yanzhi's side with a bowl of soup and squatted down, saying: "This is your medicine."
Xiao Yanzhi's smile froze, and he moved his buttocks to retreat, but after bumping into Pei Ze, Xiao Yanzhi had nowhere to retreat.
"That... just put the medicine there first, I'll drink it later."
"What are you waiting for?" Xiao Chunyue's eyes widened, and she approached Xiao Yanzhi relentlessly, "Today, this medicine is neither hot nor cold, I specially tested the temperature before bringing it to you."
Xiao Chunyue really didn't expect Xiao Yanzhi to be afraid of taking medicine. He didn't even frown when the bone in his leg was pierced, but every time he saw the soup, it was like seeing shit.
"Uh..." Xiao Yanzhi stared at the bowl of soup, but didn't stretch out his hand.
Xiao Chunyue rolled Xiao Yan's eyes, then handed the medicine bowl in her hand to Pei Ze, and said, "Thank you, my lord."
Without even a moment's hesitation, Pei Ze put his arm around Xiao Yanzhi's waist to prevent Xiao Yanzhi from escaping, took the bowl of medicine with the other hand, and immediately poured it into his mouth, then broke Xiao Yanzhi's head and said He poured it into his mouth.
Xiao Xiangsheng stared dumbfounded at this astonishing scene, and then gave Pei Ze a thumbs up: "As expected of King Wu Cheng, domineering!"
The corner of Xiao Ren'an's mouth twitched, and he raised his hand to slap Xiao Xiangsheng on the back of the head.
Compared with the astonishment of the others, Xiao Chunyue, who had already seen the surprise, was much calmer, picked up two pieces of candied fruit from the plate, and stuffed them directly into Xiao Yanzhi's mouth.
Liu Hanqing hadn't spoken since she appeared in front of Xiao Yanzhi, but now she gave Xiao Junmeng a wink.
Xiao Junmeng hesitated for a moment, but still rubbed against Xiao Yanzhi's side, hugged Xiao Yanzhi's arm, and leaned on Xiao Yanzhi's shoulder with his head tilted.
"Brother, I have something to discuss with you."
"No." Xiao Yanzhi refused without thinking, and also gave Liu Hanqing a glare.
As soon as Xiao Junmeng acted like a baby, he knew what she was going to say.Damn Liu Hanqing, if you dare to let Jun Meng talk about it, try and kill him!
Unexpectedly, Xiao Yanzhi would refuse straight away, Xiao Junmeng stared at Xiao Yanzhi and yelled dissatisfiedly: "Brother, you haven't even heard what I said!"
"I don't agree to anything." Xiao Yanzhi turned his head away.
"Brother!" Xiao Junmeng vigorously shook Xiao Yanzhi's arm.
Noticing Xiao Yanzhi's eyes, Liu Hanqing coughed twice, then suddenly moved in front of Xiao Yanzhi and sat upright.
Seeing his posture, the people around were startled and knew what he was going to say, and all looked at Xiao Yanzhi.
Liu Hanqing smiled obsequiously and said, "Well... there is something I want to discuss with you."
Xiao Yanzhi snorted coldly and said, "Say."
Liu Hanqing hurriedly said: "Look... Junmeng is already fifteen years old, and I'm not young anymore, this marriage..."
Xiao Yanzhi glared at Liu Hanqing fiercely, and said, "Since you are old enough, go get a wife. You don't want to discuss this matter with your father, why come here to discuss it with me?"
The corner of Liu Hanqing's mouth twitched, but he still smiled and said: "I haven't discussed this with my father, and I want to marry a girl from your family, so I came to discuss it with you."
"Brother..." Afraid that Xiao Yanzhi would embarrass Liu Hanqing, Xiao Junmeng tugged Xiao Yanzhi's sleeve and shook it twice.
Seeing this, Xiao Chunyue burst out laughing, made fun of Xiao Junmeng and said: "This is really a girl who doesn't want to stay."
Xiao Junmeng blushed slightly, but her face was determined.
Xiao Yanzhi squinted at Xiao Junmeng, then at Liu Hanqing, and then asked Xiao Chunyue, "What do you think of this kid, sister?"
"Huh?" Xiao Chunyue was startled, and then looked at Liu Hanqing in a daze.
As soon as Liu Hanqing heard Xiao Yanzhi asked Xiao Chunyue, she immediately turned her head to look at Xiao Chunyue, her eyes filled with pleading.
Ren'an and Xiangsheng couldn't talk about this matter. If they could help him, only his sister Xiao Chunyue and Wu Chengwang were the only ones who could help him, but it was not easy for Wu Chengwang to intervene in this matter. He could only hope Seeing his sister speak for him.Fortunately, he also knew that Yanzhi attached great importance to this sister, and he had paid attention to impressing her sister since the meeting, so it should be no problem, right?
Seeing Liu Hanqing's forehead was covered with cold sweat, Xiao Chunyue smiled and said: "People say that there is no business without treachery. I heard that this young man has several shops in Chang'an City, and he made a name for himself in just over two years. He must be a treacherous person."
Upon hearing this, Liu Hanqing was dumbfounded, and immediately explained in a panic: "That... this... that's helpless in the business world, I'm actually very simple!"
Xiao Chunyue covered her mouth and smiled lightly, and then said: "But as a businessman, he is quite capable, and he will probably make a lot of money in the future. Jun Meng must have no worries about food and clothing in the past."
Liu Hanqing was stunned, and then let out a long sigh of relief.
Don't scare him!
Seeing Liu Hanqing heaving a sigh of relief, Xiao Chunyue deliberately said again: "Although there is no shortage of money, isn't this son's age too much for a maharaja?"
Liu Hanqing's heart that had just been let go instantly picked up again.
Xiao Yanzhi glanced at Liu Hanqing, and said triumphantly: "Well, sister guessed right, he is two years older than me."
"Oh!" Xiao Chunyue pretended to be surprised, "That's really not young, two or three years old will be enough to be Jun Meng's father."
"It's not...that..." Liu Hanqing really wanted to cry.
It's not his fault that he's old, his father and mother gave birth to him so early, what should he do?It's all right to make things difficult for him, but why even my sister makes things difficult for him?Has he done anything to offend his sister?Obviously not!
"Sister!" Xiao Junmeng saw that Xiao Yanzhi and Xiao Chunyue were singing together to make things difficult for Liu Hanqing on purpose, and immediately quit.
Seeing Xiao Junmeng blowing his beard and staring, Xiao Chunyue said to Xiao Yanzhi: "Look, this girl is in a hurry, she's not doing well, her elbows are turning out, but hurry up and get married."
Xiao Yanzhi also shook his head and sighed in tandem: "Oh, sister, my heart hurts so much. The younger sister who was brought up with so much difficulty, turned away from me when she grew up. Sure enough, her daughters are all raised by other people."
"Brother! I'm ignoring you!" Xiao Junmeng pushed Xiao Yan violently, then got up and ran.
Xiao Yanzhi smiled, and said unhurriedly: "Didn't you come to discuss with me? Don't you want to know my answer?"
Xiao Junmeng's footsteps stopped, and then reluctantly walked back, but sat beside Liu Hanqing.
Seeing that Liu Hanqing was terrified by his kung fu for a while, Xiao Yanzhi stopped teasing them, and just looked at Liu Hanqing expressionlessly, and said, "Since it was Jun Meng's own decision, I wouldn't say anything. That's how she was taught, and there is no objection up to now, but the three media and six hires are indispensable, Han Qing, you can figure it out."
Xiao Junmeng frowned and said: "What do you want? Three matchmakers and six hires? You're in trouble! And brother, where are you asking Brother Hanqing to send the dowry?"
Xiao Yanzhi glared at Xiao Junmeng, and said, "Han Qing is not in a hurry, why are you in a hurry? Don't talk, just stay there!"
Xiao Junmeng snorted softly and closed his mouth.
Pei Ze suddenly interjected, "The dowry will be sent to Prince Wucheng's residence."
When Pei Ze spoke, everyone looked at Pei Ze.
"Why?" Xiao Yanzhi was puzzled, "No matter how you think about it, she must be sent to the Shu Palace, right? She is my younger sister."
"She is my adopted sister in name." Pei Ze explained.
Xiao Yanzhi was stunned, blinked, and asked in a daze: "Why...how did you become your younger sister?"
Pei Ze said calmly, "The household registrations of the four of you are all on mine."
Xiao Yanzhi stared at Pei Ze, still in a daze: "When did you put our household registration on your household registration? Shouldn't my household registration be with my father?"
Pei Ze shook his head and said, "The late emperor didn't mention this matter, so it fell to me. Ren'an and the others just arrived in Chang'an, and they asked Li An to handle it."
"Why have I never heard of it?!" Xiao Yanzhi stared.
"Because I haven't told you." Pei Zeli said confidently.
Xiao Yanzhi was stunned and couldn't say a word.
Xiao Junmeng finally seized the opportunity to fight back, so he made fun of Xiao Yanzhi and said, "Isn't this just right? Anyway, brother, you and the prince are already a family, and sooner or later you will be registered as the prince's household registration. How wonderful it is for the prince to have the foresight. .”
Xiao Yanzhi turned his head to stare at Xiao Junmeng and said, "You girl, can't you keep your mouth shut?"
Xiao Junmeng grinned and made a face at Xiao Yanzhi.
Xiao Yanzhi was so angry that he clenched his teeth, and then turned his anger on Liu Hanqing, saying: "That's fine, you send the dowry to Prince Wucheng's mansion, you have to weigh the weight of marrying Prince Wucheng's adopted sister Clear."
Liu Hanqing wiped the sweat off his forehead with his hand, and responded with a smile: "Yes, I understand... we must not embarrass King Wu Cheng!"
The dowry is going to be sent to Prince Wucheng's mansion...the prepared dowry might not be enough, and it might not be enough to add the money he earned in the past two years. He might have to borrow some from his father...I don't know. Will his father try to strangle him?
Several people got together and chatted for a while, Xiao Ren'an and the others bid farewell and left, Xiao Chunyue and Donggui were about to see off their guests, so they also left, and only Pei Ze and Xiao Yanzhi were left in the back garden of Shu Palace.
Xiao Yanzhi thought about it for a while, but he still couldn't figure out why the household registrations of the brothers and sisters were in Pei Ze's place, so he asked Pei Ze, "When Ren'an and the others first came, why did you want to put the household registrations in Pei Ze's place? Where are you? Obviously, you can leave it alone, right?"
Pei Ze hugged Xiao Yanzhi again, wrapped the two of them up in a blanket, and then replied, "When will I ignore your affairs?"
"That's not going to fall on your own household registration, right? At that time, you only need to buy a house for Ren'an and the others to settle them with the relationship of King Wu Cheng, right?" Xiao Yanzhi curled his lips, and then Turning to look at Pei Ze, he teased and said, "Could it be that you fell in love with me at that time?"
Pei Ze also stared at Xiao Yanzhi, and then said, "It might be true."
Xiao Yanzhi twitched the corner of his mouth, and said, "You've become more and more good at talking nonsense recently!"
After rolling Xiao Yan's eyes, Pei Ze said, "Do you think I'm you?"
"Then what are you talking nonsense?" Xiao Yanzhi said unconvinced, "I remember that you looked at me with disgust."
Pei Ze explained: "It's not so much disgust, it's better to say that you can't calm down when you see you. He's obviously a boy from the countryside, powerless and powerless, but he seems to be joking and laughing all day long as if he doesn't know his situation. There's nothing wrong with that." Dare to say, there is nothing I dare not do, but I worry all day whether you will lose your life in a place where I can't see, and I am extremely anxious."
Recalling his original state of mind, Pei Ze couldn't help but laugh.
Xiao Yanzhi raised his brows lightly, and after thinking carefully, he asked again: "Then why do you like me? Or do you just like the kind of people who don't know the heights of the sky and the earth?"
Pei Ze smiled and said: "Don't pursue fame and wealth, do whatever you want, value affection, and be free and easy. You and I are completely different people, but you are the kind of person I yearn for."
Xiao Yanzhi pursed his lips, grabbed Pei Ze's hand, clasped his fingers tightly, and said with a smile: "For the first time in my life, I am glad that I am such a person."
Because he is such a person, he can be with such a Pei Ze.
Pei Ze held Xiao Yanzhi's hand instead, and smiled without saying a word.
In the back garden of Shu Palace, Xiao Yanzhi was hugged by Pei Ze and sat on a grass field, a thin blanket wrapped both of them.
Leaning in front of Pei Ze, Xiao Yanzhi suddenly asked: "Are you really not planning to go to court?"
He was injured, so it was understandable not to go to court, but what did Pei Ze want to be absent from work with him?This is the fifth day.
Pei Ze lazily replied: "Didn't you just enter the palace this morning?"
Xiao Yanzhi twitched the corners of his mouth and said, "That's to pay homage to Father."
"Well, I visited Xu Lishan by the way."
Xiao Yanzhi turned his head to look at Pei Ze, and asked suspiciously, "Don't you think you've been a little too much lately? I think Xu Lishan has lost a couple of laps of weight. The things in the court must have made him burnt out, right?"
"Why didn't I realize that you cared so much about Xu Lishan before?" Pei Ze gave Xiao Yan a dissatisfied look, and then said, "If everything depends on you and me, he should abdicate earlier."
"That's what you say..." Xiao Yanzhi frowned, "But you can't just leave everything to him all of a sudden, can you?"
Why can't there be a gradual process?
Pei Ze was speechless, and said: "You only need to care about me. If Xu Lishan really encounters something that can't be solved, he will send someone to come. You don't need to worry about it."
Xiao Yanzhi turned his head to stare at Pei Ze and said, "What exactly do you want?"
Pei Ze's eyes were half closed, he lay lazily on Xiao Yanzhi's shoulder, and said, "I just want a three-year vacation."
Xiao Yanzhi raised his hand and patted Pei Ze's forehead, and said with a smile, "The majestic King Wu Cheng, the supreme commander in charge of Chang'an's military defense, asked for a three-year vacation, are you dreaming?"
"It's just to find a place to hide in peace, not to disappear from the world. The Sixteen Guards will be temporarily represented by Chu Liang and Kong Qing."
He just said that he wanted to take a vacation, but he didn't say that he would ignore the government affairs. He was not needed in the daily life of Chang'an City. Once something important happened, he would just go to him again?It is as if he will be trapped to death in Chang'an as long as he becomes King Wucheng.
Hearing the names of Chu Liang and Kong Qing at this time, Xiao Yanzhi turned to look at Pei Ze: "You have already planned it?"
Pei Ze rolled his eyes at Xiao Yan, and said as a matter of course: "Of course everything has been arranged."
Can he really just leave?In Xiao Yanzhi's opinion, is he such an irresponsible person?
Thinking of this, Pei Ze tilted his head and bit Xiao Yanzhi's neck unhappily.
"Hey! How do you bite?" Xiao Yanzhi stared at Pei Ze while covering his neck.
Pei Ze snorted softly, hugging Xiao Yan with a proud face.
"I've seen the King of Shu, I've seen the prince," Dong Gui reluctantly walked behind Pei Ze and Xiao Yan with his head lowered, his voice was almost inaudible, "I'm reporting to the prince, brothers and sisters Xiao Ren'an, please see me."
In the past, only the king of Shu had an unscrupulous look, he liked to cling to their lords when they had nothing to do, and didn't care about the eyes of others at all, but why have their lords acted like no one else recently?Although everyone in the whole family knew about the relationship between these two people, although there were no outsiders in the house, could they pay attention?Even a loving couple from an ordinary family wouldn't flirt with each other in broad daylight and in public, would they?Did the two consider how they, the bystanders, felt?
Obviously, neither Xiao Yanzhi nor Pei Ze had considered other people's feelings. Pei Ze still lay on Xiao Yanzhi's shoulder without moving, and Xiao Yanzhi still leaned in front of Pei Ze, without any embarrassment.
But Xiao Yanzhi was very happy when he heard that his siblings had returned to Beijing.
"They're back? Bring them here!"
"Eh..." Dong Gui glanced at Pei Ze and asked, "Do you want to receive the two princes in the main room?"
If they want to meet guests, at least they have to change their postures!
Pei Ze opened his eyes and glanced at Donggui, then said, "Just bring him here."
Since putting on the filial piety clothes, Xiao Yanzhi had to enter the palace every morning to offer incense in front of the late emperor's spiritual throne, and the rest of the time he stayed in the back garden and was unwilling to leave. He didn't know whether Xiao Yanzhi was thinking of it or saying goodbye, All he could do was sit here with Xiao Yanzhi.
Only then did Donggui turn and leave, and two quarters of an hour later he led the three brothers and sisters Xiao Ren'an and Liu Hanqing to the back garden.
"Brother!" Xiao Junmeng didn't care what kind of intimacy Pei Ze and Xiao Yanzhi were in at this moment, as soon as he saw Xiao Yanzhi, he walked over angrily, and tears came down halfway through, " Brother, you bastard! You actually conspired with the young master to deceive us!"

When they walked halfway, they heard that the princes in Chang'an City seemed to be going to war in order to fight for power. Only then did they understand why the young master sent all the people from the Yan Mansion out.But at that time they had already arrived at Jiangnan Road, and it was not easy for the three of them to return alone. Brother Hanqing had already separated from them and turned to Xizhou, and the most important thing was that the young master did not allow them to come back. Got beaten for this.
Xiao Yanzhi turned his head to look at Xiao Junmeng, pretending to be angry and said: "You girl! I just put you in someone else's foster care for a while, who taught you to call your brother a jerk?"
Jun Meng really wronged him when he said this. Although he asked Yan Sheng to help take care of his younger siblings, when he remembered that he was going to send his younger siblings away, the Yan Mansion was already empty.
"Brother is a big bastard!" Xiao Junmeng cried and fell in front of Xiao Yanzhi, "Every time something happens, it will only send us away, do you know how worried we are?!"
Xiao Junmeng beat Xiao Yanzhi while talking.Pei Ze stepped back a little to avoid getting hurt.
As soon as Pei Ze retreated like this, the thin blanket that had been covering the two of them fell apart, revealing the filial piety clothes they were wearing.
Xiao Junmeng was startled, and looked at Xiao Yanzhi in a panic.
"Brother, you..."
Brother, is he going to keep his filial piety for the late His Majesty?
"It's okay," Xiao Yanzhi raised his hand and touched Xiao Junmeng's head, then turned his head to look at Xiao Ren'an and Xiao Xiangsheng, and said with a smile, "you can find a place to sit by yourself, brother, I can't stand up now, so I can only Let you sit down."
After hearing the first half of the sentence, Xiao Ren'an, Xiao Xiangsheng and Liu Hanqing, who was deliberately ignored, began to find a place to sit down, but when they heard the last sentence, the three of them turned pale with shock.
"Brother, your... legs..." Xiao Xiangsheng looked at Xiao Yanzhi's legs covered by the hem of his clothes, and his tongue got stuck in fright.
Seeing that the faces of several people turned pale with fright, Xiao Yanzhi quickly lifted up the hem of his clothes to expose his legs, and said with a smile, "Why are you all thinking about scary things? It's just a slight injury, and it's not convenient to walk around for a while."
Xiao Junmeng looked at Xiao Yanzhi suspiciously, then turned to Pei Ze and said, "My lord, is that so?"
Ever since she came to Chang'an, her brother couldn't tell the truth, and she no longer believed in him!
Xiao Yan was startled, then shook his head and laughed.
Pei Ze nodded and said, "Well, as long as your brother is honest, it will be fine."
"Then you must watch over my brother, and don't let him move around!" Xiao Junmeng said seriously, "If you really can't control him, tie him up and tie him to the bed!"
Xiao Yanzhi couldn't help but slap Xiao Junmeng on the head, and said with a helpless smile, "Whose sister are you?"
Still tied to the bed?How did this girl come up with such a bad idea?
Xiao Junmeng curled her lips and said, "Who made brother so unreliable."
Xiao Yanzhi rolled his eyes greatly, and then asked Xiao Ren'an, "Did you encounter anything interesting during this trip?"
Unexpectedly, Xiao Ren'an, who has always had no complaints against Xiao Yanzhi, also complained: "Where can we encounter interesting things? I heard something happened in the capital on the way, and I can't laugh at even interesting things. Xiangsheng came back to Chang'an. Things, and was punished by the young master."
Hearing this, Xiao Yanzhi chuckled lightly.
"Sure enough, they're all here," Xiao Chunyue led a few maidservants, and came with tea and fruits, "I heard from Lian Sheng that Ren'an and the others are here, but I didn't see anyone in the main room, so I guess you are here Come to speak with me."
"Sister." The three of Xiao Ren'an shouted obediently.
Xiao Chunyue smiled at the three of them, then walked to Xiao Yanzhi's side with a bowl of soup and squatted down, saying: "This is your medicine."
Xiao Yanzhi's smile froze, and he moved his buttocks to retreat, but after bumping into Pei Ze, Xiao Yanzhi had nowhere to retreat.
"That... just put the medicine there first, I'll drink it later."
"What are you waiting for?" Xiao Chunyue's eyes widened, and she approached Xiao Yanzhi relentlessly, "Today, this medicine is neither hot nor cold, I specially tested the temperature before bringing it to you."
Xiao Chunyue really didn't expect Xiao Yanzhi to be afraid of taking medicine. He didn't even frown when the bone in his leg was pierced, but every time he saw the soup, it was like seeing shit.
"Uh..." Xiao Yanzhi stared at the bowl of soup, but didn't stretch out his hand.
Xiao Chunyue rolled Xiao Yan's eyes, then handed the medicine bowl in her hand to Pei Ze, and said, "Thank you, my lord."
Without even a moment's hesitation, Pei Ze put his arm around Xiao Yanzhi's waist to prevent Xiao Yanzhi from escaping, took the bowl of medicine with the other hand, and immediately poured it into his mouth, then broke Xiao Yanzhi's head and said He poured it into his mouth.
Xiao Xiangsheng stared dumbfounded at this astonishing scene, and then gave Pei Ze a thumbs up: "As expected of King Wu Cheng, domineering!"
The corner of Xiao Ren'an's mouth twitched, and he raised his hand to slap Xiao Xiangsheng on the back of the head.
Compared with the astonishment of the others, Xiao Chunyue, who had already seen the surprise, was much calmer, picked up two pieces of candied fruit from the plate, and stuffed them directly into Xiao Yanzhi's mouth.
Liu Hanqing hadn't spoken since she appeared in front of Xiao Yanzhi, but now she gave Xiao Junmeng a wink.
Xiao Junmeng hesitated for a moment, but still rubbed against Xiao Yanzhi's side, hugged Xiao Yanzhi's arm, and leaned on Xiao Yanzhi's shoulder with his head tilted.
"Brother, I have something to discuss with you."
"No." Xiao Yanzhi refused without thinking, and also gave Liu Hanqing a glare.
As soon as Xiao Junmeng acted like a baby, he knew what she was going to say.Damn Liu Hanqing, if you dare to let Jun Meng talk about it, try and kill him!
Unexpectedly, Xiao Yanzhi would refuse straight away, Xiao Junmeng stared at Xiao Yanzhi and yelled dissatisfiedly: "Brother, you haven't even heard what I said!"
"I don't agree to anything." Xiao Yanzhi turned his head away.
"Brother!" Xiao Junmeng vigorously shook Xiao Yanzhi's arm.
Noticing Xiao Yanzhi's eyes, Liu Hanqing coughed twice, then suddenly moved in front of Xiao Yanzhi and sat upright.
Seeing his posture, the people around were startled and knew what he was going to say, and all looked at Xiao Yanzhi.
Liu Hanqing smiled obsequiously and said, "Well... there is something I want to discuss with you."
Xiao Yanzhi snorted coldly and said, "Say."
Liu Hanqing hurriedly said: "Look... Junmeng is already fifteen years old, and I'm not young anymore, this marriage..."
Xiao Yanzhi glared at Liu Hanqing fiercely, and said, "Since you are old enough, go get a wife. You don't want to discuss this matter with your father, why come here to discuss it with me?"
The corner of Liu Hanqing's mouth twitched, but he still smiled and said: "I haven't discussed this with my father, and I want to marry a girl from your family, so I came to discuss it with you."
"Brother..." Afraid that Xiao Yanzhi would embarrass Liu Hanqing, Xiao Junmeng tugged Xiao Yanzhi's sleeve and shook it twice.
Seeing this, Xiao Chunyue burst out laughing, made fun of Xiao Junmeng and said: "This is really a girl who doesn't want to stay."
Xiao Junmeng blushed slightly, but her face was determined.
Xiao Yanzhi squinted at Xiao Junmeng, then at Liu Hanqing, and then asked Xiao Chunyue, "What do you think of this kid, sister?"
"Huh?" Xiao Chunyue was startled, and then looked at Liu Hanqing in a daze.
As soon as Liu Hanqing heard Xiao Yanzhi asked Xiao Chunyue, she immediately turned her head to look at Xiao Chunyue, her eyes filled with pleading.
Ren'an and Xiangsheng couldn't talk about this matter. If they could help him, only his sister Xiao Chunyue and Wu Chengwang were the only ones who could help him, but it was not easy for Wu Chengwang to intervene in this matter. He could only hope Seeing his sister speak for him.Fortunately, he also knew that Yanzhi attached great importance to this sister, and he had paid attention to impressing her sister since the meeting, so it should be no problem, right?
Seeing Liu Hanqing's forehead was covered with cold sweat, Xiao Chunyue smiled and said: "People say that there is no business without treachery. I heard that this young man has several shops in Chang'an City, and he made a name for himself in just over two years. He must be a treacherous person."
Upon hearing this, Liu Hanqing was dumbfounded, and immediately explained in a panic: "That... this... that's helpless in the business world, I'm actually very simple!"
Xiao Chunyue covered her mouth and smiled lightly, and then said: "But as a businessman, he is quite capable, and he will probably make a lot of money in the future. Jun Meng must have no worries about food and clothing in the past."
Liu Hanqing was stunned, and then let out a long sigh of relief.
Don't scare him!
Seeing Liu Hanqing heaving a sigh of relief, Xiao Chunyue deliberately said again: "Although there is no shortage of money, isn't this son's age too much for a maharaja?"
Liu Hanqing's heart that had just been let go instantly picked up again.
Xiao Yanzhi glanced at Liu Hanqing, and said triumphantly: "Well, sister guessed right, he is two years older than me."
"Oh!" Xiao Chunyue pretended to be surprised, "That's really not young, two or three years old will be enough to be Jun Meng's father."
"It's not...that..." Liu Hanqing really wanted to cry.
It's not his fault that he's old, his father and mother gave birth to him so early, what should he do?It's all right to make things difficult for him, but why even my sister makes things difficult for him?Has he done anything to offend his sister?Obviously not!
"Sister!" Xiao Junmeng saw that Xiao Yanzhi and Xiao Chunyue were singing together to make things difficult for Liu Hanqing on purpose, and immediately quit.
Seeing Xiao Junmeng blowing his beard and staring, Xiao Chunyue said to Xiao Yanzhi: "Look, this girl is in a hurry, she's not doing well, her elbows are turning out, but hurry up and get married."
Xiao Yanzhi also shook his head and sighed in tandem: "Oh, sister, my heart hurts so much. The younger sister who was brought up with so much difficulty, turned away from me when she grew up. Sure enough, her daughters are all raised by other people."
"Brother! I'm ignoring you!" Xiao Junmeng pushed Xiao Yan violently, then got up and ran.
Xiao Yanzhi smiled, and said unhurriedly: "Didn't you come to discuss with me? Don't you want to know my answer?"
Xiao Junmeng's footsteps stopped, and then reluctantly walked back, but sat beside Liu Hanqing.
Seeing that Liu Hanqing was terrified by his kung fu for a while, Xiao Yanzhi stopped teasing them, and just looked at Liu Hanqing expressionlessly, and said, "Since it was Jun Meng's own decision, I wouldn't say anything. That's how she was taught, and there is no objection up to now, but the three media and six hires are indispensable, Han Qing, you can figure it out."
Xiao Junmeng frowned and said: "What do you want? Three matchmakers and six hires? You're in trouble! And brother, where are you asking Brother Hanqing to send the dowry?"
Xiao Yanzhi glared at Xiao Junmeng, and said, "Han Qing is not in a hurry, why are you in a hurry? Don't talk, just stay there!"
Xiao Junmeng snorted softly and closed his mouth.
Pei Ze suddenly interjected, "The dowry will be sent to Prince Wucheng's residence."
When Pei Ze spoke, everyone looked at Pei Ze.
"Why?" Xiao Yanzhi was puzzled, "No matter how you think about it, she must be sent to the Shu Palace, right? She is my younger sister."
"She is my adopted sister in name." Pei Ze explained.
Xiao Yanzhi was stunned, blinked, and asked in a daze: "Why...how did you become your younger sister?"
Pei Ze said calmly, "The household registrations of the four of you are all on mine."
Xiao Yanzhi stared at Pei Ze, still in a daze: "When did you put our household registration on your household registration? Shouldn't my household registration be with my father?"
Pei Ze shook his head and said, "The late emperor didn't mention this matter, so it fell to me. Ren'an and the others just arrived in Chang'an, and they asked Li An to handle it."
"Why have I never heard of it?!" Xiao Yanzhi stared.
"Because I haven't told you." Pei Zeli said confidently.
Xiao Yanzhi was stunned and couldn't say a word.
Xiao Junmeng finally seized the opportunity to fight back, so he made fun of Xiao Yanzhi and said, "Isn't this just right? Anyway, brother, you and the prince are already a family, and sooner or later you will be registered as the prince's household registration. How wonderful it is for the prince to have the foresight. .”
Xiao Yanzhi turned his head to stare at Xiao Junmeng and said, "You girl, can't you keep your mouth shut?"
Xiao Junmeng grinned and made a face at Xiao Yanzhi.
Xiao Yanzhi was so angry that he clenched his teeth, and then turned his anger on Liu Hanqing, saying: "That's fine, you send the dowry to Prince Wucheng's mansion, you have to weigh the weight of marrying Prince Wucheng's adopted sister Clear."
Liu Hanqing wiped the sweat off his forehead with his hand, and responded with a smile: "Yes, I understand... we must not embarrass King Wu Cheng!"
The dowry is going to be sent to Prince Wucheng's mansion...the prepared dowry might not be enough, and it might not be enough to add the money he earned in the past two years. He might have to borrow some from his father...I don't know. Will his father try to strangle him?
Several people got together and chatted for a while, Xiao Ren'an and the others bid farewell and left, Xiao Chunyue and Donggui were about to see off their guests, so they also left, and only Pei Ze and Xiao Yanzhi were left in the back garden of Shu Palace.
Xiao Yanzhi thought about it for a while, but he still couldn't figure out why the household registrations of the brothers and sisters were in Pei Ze's place, so he asked Pei Ze, "When Ren'an and the others first came, why did you want to put the household registrations in Pei Ze's place? Where are you? Obviously, you can leave it alone, right?"
Pei Ze hugged Xiao Yanzhi again, wrapped the two of them up in a blanket, and then replied, "When will I ignore your affairs?"
"That's not going to fall on your own household registration, right? At that time, you only need to buy a house for Ren'an and the others to settle them with the relationship of King Wu Cheng, right?" Xiao Yanzhi curled his lips, and then Turning to look at Pei Ze, he teased and said, "Could it be that you fell in love with me at that time?"
Pei Ze also stared at Xiao Yanzhi, and then said, "It might be true."
Xiao Yanzhi twitched the corner of his mouth, and said, "You've become more and more good at talking nonsense recently!"
After rolling Xiao Yan's eyes, Pei Ze said, "Do you think I'm you?"
"Then what are you talking nonsense?" Xiao Yanzhi said unconvinced, "I remember that you looked at me with disgust."
Pei Ze explained: "It's not so much disgust, it's better to say that you can't calm down when you see you. He's obviously a boy from the countryside, powerless and powerless, but he seems to be joking and laughing all day long as if he doesn't know his situation. There's nothing wrong with that." Dare to say, there is nothing I dare not do, but I worry all day whether you will lose your life in a place where I can't see, and I am extremely anxious."
Recalling his original state of mind, Pei Ze couldn't help but laugh.
Xiao Yanzhi raised his brows lightly, and after thinking carefully, he asked again: "Then why do you like me? Or do you just like the kind of people who don't know the heights of the sky and the earth?"
Pei Ze smiled and said: "Don't pursue fame and wealth, do whatever you want, value affection, and be free and easy. You and I are completely different people, but you are the kind of person I yearn for."
Xiao Yanzhi pursed his lips, grabbed Pei Ze's hand, clasped his fingers tightly, and said with a smile: "For the first time in my life, I am glad that I am such a person."
Because he is such a person, he can be with such a Pei Ze.
Pei Ze held Xiao Yanzhi's hand instead, and smiled without saying a word.
