We haven't seen him for a long time. Changling looks very energetic, which is not consistent with her status as a living widow.
"Zitai!"
Changling's subconscious address made a group of people a little dumbfounded.
What is the relationship between these two people?
Liang Jing whispered: "You actually know her?"
"Why are you here?"
Changling came over.
Yang Xuan smiled bitterly, "Not long after I returned, I was arrested by the mission and followed me to Ningxing. I treated it like a sightseeing tour."
"Princess." A chamberlain reminded Changling in a low voice, "This is the East Palace."
Everyone is watching!
Changling slowly turned cold and said, "Now that I'm here, let's take a look around."
"Easy to say."
Yang Xuan also stopped smiling and looked like he was just doing business.
"Princess."
A chamberlain came with a horse.
This guy looks familiar!
Yang Xuan blinked his eyes.
Damn it!
When the man saw Yang Xuan, he turned his face away.
Isn't this the consort Chen Qiu?
Yang Xuan thought of the last time...Chen Qiu's family jumped around repeatedly and felt that it was safe to follow Lin Ya. Who would have thought that the Eagle Guard would find evidence of the Chen family's crime and kill everyone in the family.
A consort, Chen Qiu, was left behind.
He Lianhong had this man castrated last time. He thought he would be brought into the palace, but unexpectedly he became Chang Ling's chamberlain.
How does it feel to have your ex-man turned into a chamberlain?
Yang Xuan felt incredible just thinking about it.
But Changling doesn't matter.
Get on your horse, look around, and ask, "What are you doing here?"
These girls are quite interesting.
Yang Xuan said: "Communicate some things."
Changling nodded, "Then are you waiting to see the prince?"
Yang Xuan pointed at Liang Jing, "He asked to see him, and I'm here to take the blame."
"What did you do?"
"Someone spied on me, and my followers took action. No, they thought this matter was not over." Yang Xuan smiled kindly, but Changling felt a hint of evil, "I thought so too... about this matter."
It’s not over yet!”
Changling's eyes turned, "Who?"
The official came forward and said, "I have met the princess. Princess, this person is talking nonsense..."
"Shut up!" Changling stopped the official and said coldly: "If he wants to frame you, he won't frame you, a small official! You can't do it!"
Tsk!
Liang Jing felt a toothache, "What the hell do you have to do with her?"
"Get out!" Changling pointed inside, and the official rolled in with a red face.
After a while, Changling left the East Palace.
After walking far away, she called a palace maid over.
"Go to the prince and tell him that if Yang Xuan seizes the opportunity to use such despicable methods and gives him a headache, ask him to restrain himself!"
The palace maid responded, and a chamberlain asked: "Princess, this is Ning Xing! Then does Yang Xuan still dare to overthrow the world?"
Changling said calmly: "Aunt Hong couldn't trick him last time. Do you think that a small official can do it?"
That guy is probably digging a hole!
When the prince got the news, he smiled and said, "Chanling is overly worried."
The chamberlain came to report, "Your Highness, the Deputy Envoy of the Tang Dynasty wishes to see you."
"Where's Saburo?"
The prince looked calm.
The chamberlain replied: "The third prince is outside and said he wanted to take a look at the scenery of the East Palace first."
See the scenery?
There was a hint of coldness in the prince's eyes.
The emperor liked the third prince He Lianxun. This was no secret in Ningxing official circles, and everyone in the palace was well-connected.
But he is the prince!
The emperor is ruthless, no matter how much love he has, it should not go beyond him.
However, He Lianfeng passed him by and doted on the third prince.
"Deputy envoy...who?"
"Liang Jing."
Following the sound, a middle-aged man came in.
"Mr. Song." The prince smiled and said, "Why are you so late today?"
The person who came was Song Zhan, the prince's counselor. He hid his mouth and yawned, "The beauty is so kind that I can only sleep in the middle of the night."
The prince asked someone to get tea. After Song Zhan regained some energy, he said: "Aye, Ling Sanlang, came with him to receive the Tang envoy. What do you think, sir?"
"There is a folk custom of loving the youngest son. The so-called youngest son is the lifeblood of Aye."
"But he's not the youngest."
Song Zhan smiled and said, "Whoever your Majesty says is the youngest will be the youngest."
The prince lowered his eyes, "Ke Gu is the prince."
Song Zhan's expression gradually calmed down, "The prince... is also a minister!"
"Yes!" The prince smiled and said: "Gu is a minister, but Sanlang and the others are sons. Interesting, interesting!"
Song Zhan nodded, "It would be best for Your Highness to understand this."
"Of course I understand that the prince is the crown prince and has power in his hands. The prince has no power, that's all."
"yes."
"It has always been difficult to be a prince. If you do it well, you are just trying to gain fame and reputation with ulterior motives. If you do it poorly, you will be said to have no talent or virtue. How can you inherit the throne? You are in a dilemma."
The prince said sarcastically: "So the best way is to pretend to be stupid."
"Your Highness should be careful in his words and deeds." Song Zhan felt that the prince was a little pessimistic, "Your Majesty's love for the third prince is only temporary."
"Sir, do you think it's just a moment?" the prince looked at him and asked.
Song Zhan narrowed his eyes and smiled, "Your Highness has done nothing unethical."
The prince sneered, "Gu got a little intimate with a chamberlain the day before yesterday, and Aye became so angry that he even forced Gu Chu to kill the chamberlain."
Song Zhan sighed and said, "Your Highness, the East Palace has always been a place that attracts everyone's attention. Why can't you bear it..."
The two of them did not care about the life of a chamberlain at all.
"How long do you have to endure it?" The prince looked livid, "Aye said that when he saw Sanlang, he felt happy, but when he saw Gu, he became sullen and furious. How long do you think Gu can endure it?"
He raised the tea cup and was about to drop it. After taking a few rapid breaths, he held back. He slowly placed the tea cup on the table, "No, it's time to ask Aye how long he can tolerate being a lonely prince!"
"Your Highness, be careful what you say." Song Zhan turned back and looked outside.
"Your Highness." A chamberlain stood outside, "The deputy envoy of the Tang Dynasty asked to see you again."
"Let the third child go see him." The prince waved his hand impatiently.
"Political matters are important!" Song Zhan advised.
"It's better if I don't get involved." The prince said gloomily: "By the way, some famous general from northern Xinjiang is coming?"
Song Zhan thought for a while, "Your Highness, what Yang Xuan is he talking about?"
The prince nodded, "You are not yet twenty, but you are already famous. What do you think, sir?"
Song Zhan smiled: "You are called a famous general when you are less than twenty, but it is too early."
The prince raised his head and said, "Let him come and see you alone."
Let the third prince meet Liang Jing and the prince meet Yang Xuan. This arrangement is interesting.
"His Highness means to retreat in order to advance." Song Zhan nodded, but his expression clearly showed that he did not agree with it, "From the outside, it seems that His Highness has been wronged, but His Majesty is wronged, so bear with it and don't say anything."
"Thunder, rain and dew are all your kindness?" the prince said with a smile.
Song Zhan nodded silently.
"See me?" Yang Xuancai was about to walk outside the gate of the station when he was caught again.
Wang Deng came out after hearing the news, "Where is the deputy envoy?"
"The third prince is meeting him."
Wang Deng coughed dryly, "That's it, I go ahead!"
He is an official, so it is natural that he should see the prince.
This way the levels will match.
The official who came to see Yang Xuan said with a straight face, "Your Highness wants to see Ambassador Yang."
There is no such rule in official circles, but this is an enemy country.
Yang Xuan returned to the East Palace again.
"Where is the third prince?"
When entering, the chamberlain leading the way pointed to the left.
Under the verandah on the left, the third prince and Liang Jing were standing together, talking.
The third prince was in high spirits, and Liang Jing nodded frequently.
It looks like the atmosphere is good!
"Mr. Yang, here." The servant turned around and pointed ahead.
Yang Xuan nodded and walked over with a smile.
In the hall, Heliandan was sitting upright, and Song Zhan was sitting next to him.
"Your Highness, Yang Xuan is here."
Heliandan had already seen Yang Xuan outside the door, "He is very young."
Yang Xuan came in and saluted, "I have met Your Highness."
Heliandan nodded, "Yang Shijun is here, and I just want to know something about the Tang Dynasty. Can you help me clear up my doubts?"
The scenery of the Tang Dynasty, any Eagle Guard can tell you more truthfully than I can.
Yang Xuan smiled, "I wonder what Your Highness wants to know."
"Take Northern Xinjiang as an example."
"Northern Xinjiang? Northern Xinjiang is bitterly cold."
"Really?" The prince smiled and said, "I'm a little cold now, please come."
A chamberlain came forward and said, "Your Highness."
The prince said: "The Liao and the Tang Dynasties are brotherly countries. When envoys come from afar, they should show their friendship as landlords and prepare a banquet."
"yes."
Yang Xuan said: "The envoy is still in the post house."
The prince smiled and said: "Invite me."
Where is the deputy envoy?
Where is Lao Liang?
Liang Jing came later.
Yang Xuan was having a drink with the prince.
"Sit down." Yang Xuan burped.
Liang Jing sat down and Yang Xuan asked: "I saw that you and the third prince were very happy talking, but it was fruitful?"
"Stop it!" Liang Jing whispered: "That bitch has been telling me about poems and articles. He also asked me what poems I have written recently. I can't say that I have just been drinking and playing with women recently.
Read a poem."
"Deputy Ambassador Liang."
The third prince is here.
"Brother."
The prince smiled and said, "You have never refused to drink in the East Palace. Why are you here today?"
Yang Xuan squinted at the two brothers, thinking that the third prince didn't seem to be a non-drinker, so why wouldn't he drink in the East Palace?
Wang Deng sat on top of him and pressed his left hand on the case a few times.
Raise your eyebrows again.
The old man is quite aware of such conspiracies and tricks.
The third prince did not dare to drink!
If you drink too much, or get drunk, you wake up with a man lying next to you, saying affectionately: "Are you awake?"
Or there is a woman lying next to her, covering her face and crying: "I am the prince's woman!"
Tsk tsk!
Yang Xuan thought that the relationship between the royal family of the Tang Dynasty was disgusting, but he did not expect that the royal family of the Northern Liao Dynasty was also worried.
With the two brothers being so jealous of each other, wouldn't He Lianfeng worry about the day when his sons would kill each other?
However, maybe he hopes to see this scene!
The third prince smiled and said: "I was so shocked when I heard a poem by Deputy Ambassador Liang that I was dumbfounded until now."
"Oh! What poem?"
When the Northern Liao Dynasty was founded, it was composed of a large tribe. If you have the time to write poems and articles, it is better to plunder and fight.
But they have a good neighbor.
The Chen State in the front, and the Tang Dynasty in the later period.
With the fighting and exchanges with the Central Plains, the culture of the Central Plains poured into Northern Liao pervasively.
Some people say that the rough and wild style of Northern Liao should be maintained, but everyone loves to enjoy themselves. Why should we eat raw food and drink blood when we have cooked food?
From basic necessities, food, housing and transportation to poems and articles, Bei Liao almost accepted everything as ordered.
The royal family is one of the representatives.
The prince has been studying since he was a child, and is good at poetry and writing, but his level... the gentlemen say he is good, but behind his back they say he is mediocre.
As the prince knew, Liang Jing was just a lucky person who had climbed to a high position by relying on nepotism. Such people can be said to be ignorant and unskilled, what kind of poetry can they produce?
The third prince sat down and closed his eyes to ponder his emotions.
"Glow-in-the-dark cup of fine grape wine. If you want to drink, please drink Pipa immediately."
Yang Xuan glanced at Liang Jing.
That bitch actually plagiarized my poem!
The crows sat on the pig's back, each one darker than the other.
The third prince shook his head, "Young Lord lying drunk on the battlefield, don't laugh. How many people have fought in ancient times?"
The prince looked at Liang Jing with brilliant eyes, "You are so heroic on the battlefield, you can express your feelings in one poem."
He and Song Zhan looked at each other with solemn expressions.
The Eagle Guard will go to find out information about important figures in the Tang Dynasty, including the imperial concubine and her brother and sister.
The news they got was that Liang Jing relied on the imperial concubine to work as a small official in his hometown and rose to great heights all the way. Moreover, Liang Jing was a bad boy who was ignorant and unskilled when he was young.
Could the person who wrote such heroic and beautiful poems be ignorant and incompetent?
Helian Hong!
dereliction of duty!
The prince squinted his eyes, thinking that He Lianhong was one of the emperor's swords, what if he could use it to get it?
Song Zhan coughed dryly and said, "Your Highness."
"Um?"
The prince looked up and found that the three members of the envoy looked wrong.
Wang Deng looked dull, as if he was in a daze.
The same is true for Yang Xuan.
Among the three people, Liang Jing looked like a living person.
He coughed dryly.
"This poem is an old work by Yang Shijun."
…
After He Lianchun entered Ningxing, he was taken to his palace.
It's called recuperating, but it's actually house arrest.
He Lianyan was freed.
She walked around the city several times and observed several times, but found that no one was following her.
This is wrong!
She can be said to be one of He Lianchun's confidants, and she is in charge of confidential matters. Since the emperor wanted to kill He Lianchun, why didn't he arrest her?
She thought about it and felt it was wrong.
"How about trying to go out of the city."
Helianyan looked at the city gate, hesitant.
Perhaps the masters of the Eagle Guard were watching her, hoping to catch a big fish in the long run.
If she tries to leave the city, this balance will be broken. If the Eagle Guard takes action, she will lose even her last freedom.
Helianyan took a deep breath and walked towards the city gate.
She steps calmly.
When she arrived at the city gate, a sergeant glanced at her.
Helianyan looked calm.
She was trying her best to feel the movement behind her.
No one.
She walked out of the city gate smoothly.
…
He Lianchun was sitting on the couch. The room was dimly lit. It was quiet and empty outside.
But he knew that there were at least five good Eagle Guards outside at the moment.
And there was also a team of sergeants.
If he tried to rush out, there would be a wave of arrows, followed by a swarm of masters.
"I, the king, have lived enough."
He Lianchun said mockingly: "Why do you need to do this? Is there any poisonous wine? Give me a pot."
There was no movement outside.
"Then get some food. You haven't eaten for two days. Do you want to starve me to death?"
It's as quiet as ever outside.
He Lianchun cursed: "It's really like that!"
But he knew that even if He Lianfeng wanted to execute him, he would not use such methods.
Therefore, it can only mean that the people of Eagle Guard are lazy.
It is enough for a royal uncle of the clan, who is bound to die, to deliver meals every now and then to ensure that he will not die of hunger.
He Lianchun was so hungry that he felt dizzy after not eating for two days.
There is some movement outside.
"Someone comes here!"
For two days no one spoke, no one brought food, and the dark room seemed like a ghost.
What's worse is loneliness!
When you face a desperate situation and know that no one in the whole world cares about you, the loneliness can be maddening.
He Lianchun is going crazy.
Footsteps slowly approached.
"who?"
He Lianchun gasped, with a look of caution in his eyes.
Those who can come at this time are probably preparing to send him back to the west.
Even though he was mentally prepared to die, He Lianchun still felt weak all over and was panting heavily.
Squeak.
The door opens.
Outside the door, He Lianyan was holding a big bowl.
