first and second

Tang Weizhen took the book in Liu Wenchao's hand and said, "You kept her outside for three years, no matter how you say it, you have feelings. Now she ran away with a bum, you should at least find me to complain about it." !"

Liu Wenchao: "..."

"That man can give ten thousand gold, you call him a little bum?" Liu Wenchao laughed.

"It's a good thing you can still laugh." Tang Weizhen took Liu Wenchao's hand and walked out: "Come on, I'll take you to drink now, don't keep things in your heart, you'll ruin your body."

Liu Wenchao broke free from his hand: "I'm really fine. She found me and told me about it a few days ago, and I agreed to let her go. After I learned that she was going to marry, I even sent Ji Rufeng to send her off. A gift as a dowry."

Tang Weizhen half-believingly asked: "Are you okay?"

Liu Wenchao sighed: "Our friendship of more than 20 years, I have to lie to you about such a trivial matter." He hesitated for a moment: "Let me tell you the truth! I have never touched her."

Tang Weizhen opened his eyes wide: "No way! You, Liu Xiahui, my younger brother admires you for your gentle behavior." Tang Weizhen made compliments with both hands.

Liu Wenchao patted his hand away and pulled him to sit down: "Are you trustworthy this time?"

Tang Weizhen was puzzled: "Then why did you raise her for three years for nothing?"

"Do you still remember that six years ago, the minister of the Ministry of Rites impeached me and said that the two of us had broken sleeves?"

Tang Weizhen rolled his eyes: "Are you?"

Liu Wen glanced at Ni.

Tang Weizhen shut his mouth wisely, pondered for a moment, and said, "It seems to be the case."

Liu Wenchao picked up the oranges on the table and peeled them: "He impeached me today for cutting off my sleeve, and tomorrow he can impeach me for not marrying a wife. I did it for once and for all."

Tang Weizhen sneered: "No one has impeached you anymore. Now many people in the court know that there is a 'blue sky' above your head, Mr. Shoufu."

Liu Wenchao carefully peeled the white silk off the oranges, and said in a calm manner: "It's just right, I'm hurt, and my father won't urge me to marry a wife."

Tang Weizhen thought for a while and said, "What kind of woman do you like?"

Liu Wenchao tore the peeled orange in half and handed it to Tang Weizhen, saying, "I haven't thought about it, and I don't plan to marry a wife, nor have I thought about taking a concubine."

Tang Weizhen was stunned for a moment, took the orange from Liu Wenchao, and said slowly, "I think the same as you."

Liu Wenchao felt that the oranges were juicy and sweet, but when he heard Tang Weizhen's words, he suddenly felt sour and astringent, and hurriedly asked: "You are the only male in your family, you are planning to let your old Tang family die!"

Tang Weizhen smiled and said, "Yiqing is also the blood of the Tang family. When she gives birth to a child, she will adopt one under my name."

Liu Wenchao thought about Li Chengyun's saying that he would not marry Tang Yiqing, and wondered whether he should tell Tang Weizhen. If he did, Tang Weizhen asked, did he tell him that Li Chengyun liked him?If you don't say it, when the wedding day comes, if Li Chengyun says not to marry, the matter will become even uglier, and it will ruin Tang Yiqing's life.

At the moment when Liu Wenchao was in a dilemma, Tang Weizhen said, "What are you thinking about? So engrossed."

Liu Wenchao said perfunctorily: "Chu Wang's son can be adopted by you if you want to?"

Tang Weizhen said indifferently: "It's fine if the King of Chu disagrees, and Yiqing's blood is also a descendant of my Tang family."

Liu Wenchao suddenly remembered the peerless beauty that Tang Weizhen mentioned in Wanqinglou, and his heart skipped a beat: "The peerless beauty you mentioned last time?"

Tang Weizhen looked at Liu Wenchao with a smile in his eyes: "That beauty said that he has no intention of getting married in this life."

"There is such a strange woman, she is..." Liu Wenchao wanted to ask who she was?Before he finished speaking, he realized that the peerless beauty that Tang Weizhen was referring to might be himself, and this thought made him feel a little stunned. If this was the case, then it would be reasonable for Tang Weizhen not to marry a wife or take concubines for so many years. If you like a man, that man is still yourself.

Liu Wenchao swallowed, turned his head, pretended to be calm and said: "It seems that you and I are not the only people who don't want to get married in this world, and we are not unconventional."

Tang Weizhen's eyes darkened: "Yes."

Liu Wenchao couldn't respond to his feelings, but after all, after more than 20 years of friendship, he couldn't bear to see him sad, so he comforted him: "The ancients said, brothers are like brothers and feet, and wives are like clothes. If clothes are broken, they can still be sewn; if brothers and feet are broken, they can be continued." After a pause, Liu Wenchao said in a gentle voice as if bewitching: "Yuzhi, we are good brothers forever, right?"

Facing Liu Wenchao who is so cautious, Tang Weizhen can't refuse him. If he can't be a "husband and wife", then it's okay to be a good brother for a lifetime like a family member. Anyway, Liu Wenchao doesn't plan to marry a wife and take concubines. This is another form Being together is better than breaking the casserole and asking the end. In the end, the two of them broke their faces.

After thinking it through, Tang Weizhen slowly laughed: "You are two years older than me, according to the rules, should I change my name to call you good brother like Liu Mingxiao?"

Liu Wenchao's goosebumps stood on end, he glared at him, and said, "You should call me Qingchuan! After listening to it for more than 20 years, I'm used to it."

"Qingchuan, do you really not plan to marry a wife and take concubines?" Tang Weizhen asked.

Liu Wenchao smiled and said, "Really, it's more real than gold."

At this time, a person came from outside the door, with his head held high, and he was walking vigorously.

Tang Weizhen joked: "Mingxiao, your butt doesn't hurt anymore?"

Liu Mingxiao sat down on the chair carelessly, as if implying that his hip injury had completely healed: "Do you think I look like someone with an injury?"

Liu Wenchao said with a smile: "I don't know who has been lying on the bed for nearly a month. Poor Ling Ran has to feed you, rub your medicine on your body, and serve you in the toilet."

Liu Mingxiao coughed: "When no one is in pain, brother, you can just laugh at me! When it's winter, I'll see if you can still laugh."

Liu Wenchao went to play on the ice when he was a child, and was pushed and fell into the frozen lake. When he was rescued, he was barely breathing. After being rescued by a passing adult, he was able to save his life.

Tang Weizhen said: "I think the emperor beat you sixty sticks less."

Liu Mingxiao looked back at the chair, crossed his legs, and said nonchalantly, "You always look to the eldest brother in everything, anyway, I will also call you the second brother, so you can't hurt me a little bit."

Tang Weizhen said: "Can you spare a few words about your elder brother?"

Liu Wenchao sat on the main seat: "You two, be quiet."

The two stopped talking immediately, Tang Weizhen slowly and methodically blew on the teacup, Liu Mingxiao snorted and turned his head to one side, with his arms around his chest shaking his legs.

-

In the morning, the clothes are cold, and the wild geese have flown south.

The fragrant chrysanthemums are flourishing in autumn, and they climb the high mountains.

Dietai Mountain is located outside the Shenwu Gate outside the palace city. Although it is autumn now, the trees on Dietai Mountain are still lush and there are groups of wild deer and cranes.There is also a 'star picking hall' built on the highest top.

Every year on the Double Ninth Festival, Emperor Huiming summoned his ministers and nobles who were still in the capital to watch the performance at the Star Picking Hall on Dietai Mountain.

Liu Mingxiao rode a horse and led his subordinates to open the way at the forefront, and Jin Yiwei Chen Qianning accompanied the holy driver to march forward.

Liu Wenchao and Tang Weizhen rode side by side on horseback, talking and laughing.

Li Chengyun rode a new Taxue a few days ago and Li Chen passed by from behind. When passing by Liu Wenchao, Li Chen's eyes widened and he cheered and said: "Second brother, look, the horse that the first assistant is riding is a sweat horse." Is it a blood horse?"

Li Chen was excited when he saw the BMW and couldn't control his emotions. His voice instantly reached everyone's ears.When the emperor rewarded this BMW to Liu Wenchao, many ministers in the court had seen it, and now they are not used to it.

Li Chen was more or less infected with the habits of the young masters in the capital, and he was crazy about horses, but he was not as ignorant as Li Changshuo.

What he has on his crotch is a Luma with white spots on its forehead, and it runs very fast.

Hearing this, Li Chengyun reined in his horse and stopped, turned around and looked back, but his eyes were not on the bloody BMW, but he took this opportunity to look up and down Liu Wenchao with eyesight.

After looking at it for a long time, he smiled and said to Li Chen, "Indeed, it's covered in golden light. You can see that its long and smooth ponytail is really rare. It's even better than your horse and mine."

Li Chen, who loves horses and becomes obsessed with horses, immediately got excited: "Second brother, you go first, and I will find the first assistant." After finishing speaking, regardless of Li Chengyun's answer or not, he turned his horse and headed towards Liu Wenchao.

Li Chengyun smiled handsomely, and immediately hit the mountain.Only a moment later, Li Chengyun heard the sound of horseshoes whizzing past his ears. Looking up, he saw only dust rolled up on the ground. Li Chengyun didn't need to look at it, he knew that it was Li Chen passing by on a sweaty BMW.

It took a long time for the mighty group of people to reach the top of the mountain, and it was already past noon.

The Zhaixing Tower usually left some inner eunuchs in the palace to guard it. Emperor Huiming sat on a high position, and soon the inner eunuchs brought chrysanthemum wine and flower cakes.

Emperor Huiming said: "There is wine and food, but there are no performances. Riding and archery has been an activity of the Double Ninth Festival since ancient times. Everyone here who wins the first prize will be rewarded."

The so-called riding and archery activity is to set a target, everyone shoots arrows while riding horses, and judges No.1 with speed and accuracy.

Soon, a large number of people signed up to participate, and many of them were women.

Liu Mingxiao, Chen Qianning and others who were born in generals must be indispensable, Li Chen naturally participated, as long as it is fun on horseback, he will do everything.

Emperor Huiming said: "Prince, the two of you, King Chu, also go to have fun."

Li Chengyun walked slowly in front of Liu Wenchao: "Sir, don't you want to participate? I remember when I learned archery a few years ago, you gave me some pointers."

Liu Wenchao chuckled and said, "The king of Chu invites you, so there's no reason not to go."

The grassland on Yimapingchuan on the top of Dietai Mountain is specially built for Cuju, riding and archery.At the end of the pasture is a stretch of woods, and the calls of various birds and beasts can be vaguely heard.

A row of people sat straddling the horses, carrying three bows and arrows on their backs, all of them looking ready to go.

With the sound of the gong, all the horses galloped away like lightning. Liu Mingxiao shot an arrow first and hit the bull's-eye. Li Chengyun followed closely behind, and Li Chen also shot an arrow not to be outdone.

Suddenly, there was a roar, and a huge monster jumped out of the lush forest.It opened its bloody mouth wide, baring its sharp teeth, as if smelling its prey.

Someone in the crowd shouted: "Big bug"

"Tiger"

"Protect the Emperor"

"come soon"

Everyone was shocked, and the emperor, who was enjoying the riding and archery performance, was escorted into the Zhaxing Tower in a hurry.
