Tiantang Splendid

Chapter 3207
Although Xingqing Palace is also a palace of the former dynasty, it is much simpler than Taiji Palace. It has a little more delicate and soft charm of Jiangnan gardens, but it lacks the majestic grandeur of the Guanzhong imperial capital.

The servant led Princess Changle to a pavilion near the water.

The winding water flows outside the pavilions, and the willows grow into forests beside the winding river, but at this time, the ground is already withered and yellow, and there is no shade of trees to cover the sun, birds singing and cicadas singing in midsummer.

The exquisite pavilions are surrounded by veils to block the rustling autumn wind. A small red clay stove is placed inside the pavilion, and the high-quality incense charcoal is burning vigorously. Spray some out from the spout.

On both sides of the tea table, Crown Prince Li Chengqian and Wei Wang Li Tai sat kneeling opposite each other, enjoying tea leisurely.

Seeing Princess Changle walking in, the two brothers didn't get up, the prince waved his hands with a warm smile, and said with a smile: "The beauty came just in time, just now Qingque ridiculed Gu's poor tea making skills and ruined this high-quality autumn tea. Dissatisfied. Your tea art is second to none among the imperial family, come and serve your elder brother Qingque, lest he make any noise."

Li Tai smiled helplessly: "If you can do it, you can do it, if you can't do it, you can't do it. The prince's tea art is inferior, so don't you allow me to dislike it? The prince is the prince, so he should open up his opinions and accept advice with an open mind. Being so domineering and obstructing the way of speech is not a mind." The performance of the four seas."

Li Chengqian was angrily laughed by him and said, "It's just a cup of tea, what nonsense?"

Li Tai smiled without saying a word.

Princess Changle cleaned her hands in the jade basin at the side, picked up a snow-white handkerchief and wiped her palms clean, then smiled and knelt down to the side of the tea table, poured out the tea in the teapot, and used it from the tea caddy. The teaspoon took an appropriate amount of tea leaves and put them in the teapot, then lifted the silver kettle from the red clay stove, and poured boiling mountain spring water into the teapot.

Washing tea, making tea, and distributing tea, the whole set of movements is skillful and light, and every posture of a pair of snow-white and slender jade hands is graceful and calm.

The aroma of tea is overflowing.

Li Tai praised: "Look, Lizhi's tea art is definitely better than the prince's, not only the tea is full of fragrance, but also pleasing to the eye."

Li Chengqian said with a smile: "Isn't it because beauty looks better than lonely ones?"

The two brothers looked at each other and laughed loudly.

Princess Changle brought the teacup in front of the two of them, stretched out her hand to brush her temple hair, her face flushed slightly, and she said angrily, "The two elder brothers made fun of my younger sister after arresting her as a strong man, it's too much!"

Li Chengqian said with a smile: "I'm just telling the truth. My sister is talented and beautiful, but her frown and smile are incomparably beautiful. When making tea, her expression is focused, and she looks more and more gentle and pleasant. The so-called touch the scene to create love, through the hands of my sister." The brewed tea seems to be extraordinarily fragrant."

Li Tai on the opposite side seemed to agree with him, took a sip of tea, closed his eyelids slightly, savored the sweetness, and praised: "It smells so good."

"Ha ha!"

Li Chengqian laughed, and also raised his glass and took a sip.

Princess Changle felt that there was no barrier between the two brothers' closeness, and she was in a good mood. She poured herself a cup, sipped the tea, and looked at the faces of the two brothers, feeling very sad in her heart. emotion.

Once upon a time, these two turned against each other for the reserve position, and even wished to kill each other... But now Brother Qingque voluntarily gave up fighting for the reserve position, the biggest barrier between brothers suddenly disappeared, and the brotherhood in the past once again surge.

Such a scene of brotherhood and harmony should last for a long time. Brothers and sisters talk and laugh without any barriers for the rest of their lives. It's so good to drink tea and chat leisurely...

When she is in a good mood, Princess Changle is extraordinarily lively. She is attentive and refills tea for her two elder brothers. Her beautiful face is always filled with warm smiles. She is no longer as cold as before. It is eye-catching and charming. The gorgeous color.

But when the pheasant slave sounded, he was worried again.

Now the pheasant slave has raised his heart to fight for the reserve again, forcing a crack in this brotherly and beautiful relationship, and he doesn't know how it will end in the future...

Li Chengqian put down his teacup, picked up a piece of pastry and chewed it twice in his mouth. Looking at Princess Changle's pretty face with a sweet smile, he suddenly asked: "Your sister looks very good today. She is obviously in a good mood. Could it be that there is some happy event?"

When Princess Changle heard the word "happy event", her heart suddenly thumped, a little shy, and a layer of rouge appeared on her pure white jade face.

She thought of the embarrassment she felt when she was unwell, but was mistaken by the prince's brother as a dark knot in the fetus and pregnant...

Seeing Li Tai also looking over, he quickly suppressed the shyness in his heart, shook his head and said, "It's not a happy event, it's just that Concubine Wei went to Sizi's bedroom just now, and talked about proposing marriage."

The smile on Li Chengqian's face faded a little, he nodded, and said: "It's hard to embarrass Concubine Wei, thinking about the junior's marriage so much."

That's not a good thing to say...

Li Tai also wondered: "Concubine Wei mentioned this matter to several nobles in the palace before, and then not only Wei Zhengju was dealt with by Fang Erhao, but even the entire Jingzhao Wei family suffered. Have you forgotten the work of God?"

It is rumored that Jinyang Princess Fang Jun has an affair, brothers and sisters naturally know it is pure nonsense, but it is true that Sizi and Fang Jun are very close, and Fang Jun also dotes on Sizi very much.

If Fang Jun doesn't like Wei Zhengju, he thinks that the well-known Wei family boy in Guanzhong is not good enough for Sizi, so it is very possible to deliberately make trouble for him.

Under such circumstances, although Concubine Wei has a high status, she is only a concubine in the end, she still has some power in the Taiji Palace, but how can she control such powerful officials as Fang Fangjun outside the palace?

Now that Fang Jun has seen Fang Jun's dissatisfaction with this marriage before, and even knocked on the mountain to warn him, where did Concubine Wei and Jing Zhao Wei behind her have the courage to bring up the old story again?

He did understand that Jingzhao Webster was so obsessed with marrying his son. After all, once his son was married, the political resources that Jingzhao Webster was about to obtain would be too important.

But you can't just hit the south wall and not look back for a little political resources, right?
Today's Fang Jun can be said to have soared in prestige and unparalleled momentum. If it is true, even the King of Wei would shy away from him, so what is Jingzhao Webster...

Princess Changle said softly: "No one knows whether she has forgotten, but my sister thinks it may not be that simple."

Li Chengqian and Li Tai nodded together.

They are all from the vortex of fighting for reserves. What kind of schemes and calculations have you never seen?Just seeing how Concubine Wei ignored Fang Jun's threats, one knew that she must have nothing to fear.

At the very least, they are sure to be able to resist Fang Jun's provocative offensive after returning to Beijing...

Li Chengqian did not express any opinion on Concubine Wei. After all, it is impolite for a prince to talk about his father's imperial concubine behind his back. He changed the subject and said, "The Arabs are making a comeback and invading the Western Regions again. The timing and route of dispatching troops are all determined. If there is no reason for the key point of Zhunwu Great Tang, it would be unbelievable."

This is not only his suspicion, but also the doubt that is haunting the minds of all the officials in the court. If it is reasonable to say that the timing of the big cannibal's dispatch of troops, but since the beginning of the Battle of the Western Regions, the army of the big cannibal Drive straight in, avoiding the frontal defense of the Tang army, inserting into the empty place behind to surround, encircle, and then attack.Although Xue Rengui is well versed in the art of war and has excellent abilities, except for the victory in the battle of Suiye City, he has been struggling and retreating steadily, and now he has retreated to Gongyue City, and most of the Western Regions have fallen. Under the horseshoe.

It's unbelievable that the big cannibal knows everything about Tang Jun's reality...

Reminiscent of the fact that Fang Jun has already rushed to Hexi to support the Anxi Army after he pacified Hexi...

"hiss!"

Li Tai gasped, and said in surprise: "Is there anyone who wants to deal with Fang Er?"

Princess Changle's pretty face also lost all color in an instant.

Li Chengqian looked solemn, and pondered: "Now the situation in the Western Regions is collapsing, the big cannibals are driving straight in, and the Anxi army is retreating steadily. Even if there are more support from the right guards, it may not be able to turn the situation around and turn defeat into victory. On the contrary, if If You Tunwei is a little careless, it is very likely that he will be surrounded by big cannibals... that may satisfy some people's wishes."

If someone inside the Tang Dynasty informs the big cannibal, so that the big cannibal can avoid the truth and drive straight in, then once these people inform the big cannibal of Youtunwei's whereabouts, and the Youtunwei doesn't know it, It is really easy to fall into the encirclement of the big cannibal.

Princess Changle's complexion was already pale, her voice trembled slightly, and she couldn't hide the worry in her heart: "Then what should I do? Why don't the prince's elder brother issue an order to recall You Tunwei..."
