The prince is not doing his job [traveling]

After staying in the camp of Yunzhou for another two days, Pei Ze and Xiao Yanzhi returned to Beijing with the four of them, but there was another Paleken on the way.

Walking with Pei Ze to the Yanxi gate of the palace, Xiao Yanzhi reined in his horse and stopped.

"You go, I'm going back to the palace first."

Pei Ze frowned, and asked Xiao Yanzhi, "Aren't you going into the palace with me?"

Xiao Yanzhi smiled and said, "I'm just a commoner, what kind of palace do I enter?"

"No one is stopping you."

Who in the palace doesn't know how Yan Zhi came to be a commoner?Who doesn't know Xu Lishan's fancy for Yan Zhi?Return the common people?In other words, if they were common people, they would be the highest-ranking common people in the world.

"You're all back, why don't you go see Xu Lishan?" Pei Ze asked again.

Xiao Yanzhi scratched the corner of his mouth and said, "You're not a child, why do you have to see each other?"

Pei Ze rolled Xiao Yan's eyes, then rode close to Xiao Yanzhi's side, grabbed Xiao Yanzhi's hand and held it in his hand: "Don't talk nonsense."

Before the words finished, Pei Ze rode his horse and led Xiao Yanzhi into the palace.

Xiao Yanzhi had no choice but to ride his horse and follow Pei Ze first.

Paleken scratched his head, looked up at the plaque on the city gate, and then followed Pei Ze and Xiao Yan with Xu Ren and the others.

On the way from Yunzhou to Chang'an, he didn't have a chance to say a word to His Highness Tang. Either King Wu Cheng deliberately took him away, or Xu Ren and the others deliberately separated him from His Highness. Leave him like this?He didn't intend to do anything bad!

After entering the palace city, Xiao Yanzhi shook the hand held by Pei Ze and said, "Relax, there are people coming and going in the palace."

Pei Ze turned his head to look at Xiao Yanzhi, and teasingly said, "The king of Shu, who used to be careless, actually cares about this? Who was it that hugged Xiao Yanzhi regardless of the time and place?"

Xiao Yanzhi scratched the corner of his mouth and said, "So what if it's me? Back then I hugged you if I wanted to, but now I don't want to hold hands with you so I don't."

Pei Ze pouted, but held Xiao Yanzhi's hand even tighter: "At the beginning I hugged you even if I didn't want to, but now you have to let me hold you if you don't want to."

Xiao Yanzhi twitched the corner of his mouth when he heard this.

Today he finally knows what it means to go out to mess around and always have to pay it back.But it's too embarrassing to walk hand in hand like this, or change the posture.

After entering Changle Gate, passing through Gongli Gate and going to Qianhua Gate, Pei Ze finally let go of Xiao Yanzhi's hand when he dismounted from his horse.

Unexpectedly, after Pei Ze got off his horse, he walked around to Xiao Yanzhi's side.

"I'll help you." Pei Ze raised his head and stretched out his hand to Xiao Yanzhi.

Xiao Yanzhi laughed and said, "Am I not even able to dismount myself?"

Despite what he said, Xiao Yanzhi still put his hand on Pei Ze's.

Paleken looked around, and then asked Pei Ze and Xiao Yanzhi, "Are you two really not restraining yourself? Why do I feel that everyone around you is looking at you?"

Hearing this, Xiao Yanzhi also looked around, and sure enough, he saw palace people and guards passing by looking at him one after another. Those eyes were not surprised to see King Wu Cheng's return, but rather strange, just like Yunzhou University. The soldiers in the battalion had the same sight.

Seeing this, Xiao Yan raised his eyebrows.

During the few years he was in the palace, everyone in the palace should be used to the close contact between him and Pei Ze, right?Why did they show such subtle expressions after three years of separation?

However, Pei Ze didn't care. After hearing Paleken's words, he just gave Paleken a glance, and then took Xiao Yanzhi's hand and walked towards the Hall of Liangyi.

In front of the Hall of Liangyi, I met Ying An, the current eunuch, and learned from Ying An that Xu Lishan was still discussing matters with the ministers in the front hall, and told them to go directly to the front hall when they came back.

Pei Ze and Xiao Yanzhi looked at each other, then went to the front hall.

Walking to the front door, Xiao Yanzhi kicked Pei Ze suddenly, and then took advantage of Pei Ze's surprise to withdraw his hand.

When his hands were suddenly empty, Pei Ze knew why Xiao Yanzhi kicked him, looked at Xiao Yanzhi and smiled, Pei Ze stepped into the hall first after answering the announcement, Xiao Yanzhi followed closely behind Pei Ze.

The moment the two stepped into the hall, the ministers in the hall turned around and kowtowed.

"Welcome King Wucheng back to the palace!"

Because they didn't know what to call the current Xiao Yanzhi, and seeing that Xiao Yanzhi was half a step behind Pei Ze in the main hall, the ministers didn't greet Xiao Yanzhi.

Pei Ze didn't say anything, and led Xiao Yanzhi straight to Xu Lishan, then knelt down to salute, and said: "I see Your Majesty."

"You guys are back." Xu Lishan raised his hand and waved away the ministers in the palace, "Although I asked you to go to the Turks, I'm really afraid that you will never return like this. Those who are following you Who is this……?"

Pei Ze and Xiao Yanzhi turned around after hearing the words, only then did they see Paleken who followed them into the hall without making a sound.

The corner of Pei Ze's mouth twitched, and he explained to Xu Lishan, "This is Qi Lifa from the Turks, who wants to come to Tang to learn how to govern the country."

"Oh, that's it." Xu Lishan looked at Paleken, "But the journey is exhausting, please let Qi Lifa go to rest first."

Knowing that Xu Lishan had something to say to Pei Ze and Xiao Yanzhi, Paleken left the hall with Ying An knowingly.

When Ying An left, he took a special look at Xu Lishan, and then closed the door of the hall when he stepped out of the hall.

Pei Ze and Xiao Yanzhi's heart skipped a beat when they heard the dull sound of the heavy door closing. When the door was completely closed, Xu Lishan suddenly threw a booklet in front of Pei Ze's eyes.

"Can you two not cause trouble for me?!"

Pei Ze raised his eyebrows, picked up the booklet on the ground, looked at it, smiled after reading it, and handed the booklet to Xiao Yanzhi, Xiao Yanzhi took the booklet and laughed.

"Hehe, I'm urging you to get married." Xiao Yanzhi reached out and poked Pei Ze.

Seeing that Xiao Yanzhi was still able to laugh, the veins on Xu Lishan's forehead twitched, and he said in a deep voice, "It's not just that one, my book case is almost covered with such booklets these days, what did you two do outside?" What?! Get up and find a place to sit!"

Pei Ze and Xiao Yanzhi left without any message for three years, but it was just a trip to Turkic, and the back and forth only took three months. How could the little things between the two of them be so troublesome? Everyone knows?

The ministers didn't know where they heard the news, and they didn't dare to ask him for confirmation, but they all submitted papers, saying that King Wu Cheng and his father had worked hard and made great achievements, and they should get married as soon as possible to carry on the family line of Pei's family, and asked him The emperor promised a good match, and some said that even though the eldest prince Xiao Yanzhi had been demoted to a commoner, he was still of royal blood after all, and he should shoulder the responsibility of spreading the branches and leaves for the royal family.

Doesn't he know these things?But what's the use of him knowing? !Now, how could these two people marry another woman?If he dared to bring up this matter with two people, wouldn't he be punished to death?

Pei Ze and Xiao Yanzhi stood up, walked towards the same direction, and sat side by side.

As a result, as soon as the two of them sat down, Xu Lishan said, "Sit separately! Now I get a headache when I see the two of you together!"

The corner of Xiao Yanzhi's mouth twitched, he had no choice but to stand up and sit opposite Pei Ze.

After sitting down, Xiao Yanzhi said: "Speaking of which, this matter was only exposed when we left Turkic and returned to Yunzhou. Both of us only returned to Beijing. Why did this matter spread all over the capital? gone?"

Hearing this, Xu Lishan glared at Xiao Yan, and said: "It takes only seven days for a letter from the family to be sent from Yunzhou to Chang'an, and it takes about half a month if it is slower, but it has been a month since the two of you left Yunzhou!"

Xiao Yanzhi scratched the corner of his mouth, pretending to be stupid, and said, "Ah, is it? Time really flies by."

"Don't talk!" Xu Lishan rubbed his forehead with some headaches, "What are you two going to do about this matter? Who will come forward and clarify?"

Pei Ze took it lightly and said, "What are you clarifying? They are all facts."

Xu Lishan frowned, looked at Pei Ze suspiciously and said, "Brother Pei, you must have revealed this, right?"

Pei Ze shrugged, and said: "Your brother suddenly wanted to know what it's like to be a man's favorite, but he had a fight with someone in Turkic, which only revealed his identity as a prince. A prince can't be a man's favorite, right?"

Pei Ze's words were brief, but Xu Lishan roughly guessed the whole story after a little thought.

"Male pet? He messes around and you just accompany him?! Tangtang... dignified prince, what do you need to know what it's like to be a male pet?!"

Pei Ze pointed at Xiao Yanzhi with his chin raised, and said, "Ask him."

Xu Lishan turned his head to look at Xiao Yanzhi, seeing the smile on Xiao Yanzhi's face, he was immediately discouraged.

Xiao Yanzhi must have prepared a hundred reasons waiting for him, he really didn't want to hear any of them.

"No matter what the reason is, the two of you must come forward to clarify this matter, otherwise those ministers will definitely annoy me to death."

"What's the matter with me?"

Pei Ze and Xiao Yanzhi said this sentence almost in unison, Xu Lishan was taken aback by the incomparably harmonious voice, but Pei Ze and Xiao Yanzhi looked at each other and smiled.

"You guys!" Xu Lishan was so angry that he couldn't speak, "Whose matter am I working so hard on? Do you two have any conscience?! Just leave all the political affairs to me, why even your own? Do you want to leave things to me?!"

Pei Ze and Xiao Yanzhi said in unison again: "Because you are the emperor."

Xu Lishan was so angry that he gritted his teeth and said, "In short, you two settle this matter for me. Before this matter is resolved, I will send half of the memorial to Wucheng Palace every day!"

Hearing this, Pei Ze and Xiao Yanzhi frowned together.

Half of the memorial?How hard it was.

Xu Lishan said again: "Starting tomorrow, when King Wucheng returns to the court, I will send someone to pick up King Wucheng to go to the early court. Step back."

As soon as Xu Lishan put on the emperor's airs, Xiao Yanzhi and Pei Ze really had no choice but to get up and leave.

After leaving the Hall of Liangyi, Xiao Yanzhi kicked Pei Ze and said, "You know that things will turn out like this, but you still tell them on purpose?"

Pei Ze held Xiao Yanzhi's hand and said, "You are mine, and it is thanks to you that I can finally announce this to the world."

Xiao Yanzhi twitched the corner of his mouth involuntarily.

Co-authoring is his own crime again.
