Dong Gong Mei

Chapter 111
Cui Yutang jumped into the carriage and said with a loud smile: "Miss Zhao is too out of touch, you are Yurong's good friend, that is our good friend, Linfeng, don't you think so?"

Pei Linfeng nodded slightly: "It's a little thing, why worry about it."

Cui Yurong blinked and said with a mischievous smile: "Since Sister Wei wants to repay her kindness, there's no need to wait later, why don't you invite us to Deyuelou to eat roasted whole lamb later!"

Zhao Xiwei could hear the narrowness in the tone, but he couldn't refuse, so he could only smile and say, "I'll treat you to whatever sister Yurong likes."

"That's a good idea!" Cui Yutang laughed loudly, "One roasted whole lamb is just enough for the four of us."

"Yutang, my cousin is messing around and you are messing around too." Pei Linfeng's voice was warm and gentle, like a spring breeze, covering Zhao Xiwei's embarrassment, "Miss Zhao came to Cui's house as a guest, how can I let the guests treat me? Since you want to Eat roasted lamb, I invite you."

Cui Yutang refused: "How can it be done, Miss Zhao is not only my guest, but also my younger sister, and if you want to invite me, I, the older brother, will invite you!"

"When did the lady from the Prime Minister's Mansion become your younger sister?"

Several people were arguing endlessly at the door, when a dignified voice suddenly came from behind.

This voice was like snowflakes on a sunny day, cold and calm, making everyone's backs stiffen suddenly.

Cui Yutang slipped on the sole of his foot and jumped out of the car: "His Royal Highness!"

Pei Linfeng also got out of the car to greet him: "My minister will see His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

Zhao Xi turned his head slightly, and saw a luxurious carriage parked at the intersection of the street.

Li Xuanye lifted the curtain of the car and looked at the few of them indifferently.

Although there was no emotion on his face, the aura that had been on people for a long time was like a gust of cold wind, and the air around him suddenly froze.

Looking at each other, Zhao Xiwei's heart suddenly seemed to be hit by something, and a familiar but strange feeling slowly rose.

She was stunned for a moment, and then quickly suppressed the discomfort: "I have seen His Royal Highness the Prince."

The person in the car didn't reply, but just glanced at her with that kind of cold and snowy eyes.

At this glance, Zhao Xiwei's suppressed emotions suddenly surged up like a fire.

Inexplicably, the bases of the ears also began to feel slightly hot.

But the man in the car didn't give her any face, and still looked at her so lightly.

Zhao Xiwei's calm mood was suddenly disturbed by this unreasonable embarrassment, so he moved quietly, trying to hide his body behind Cui Yurong as much as possible, and it was best to disappear in this scene where the enemy was approaching.

The atmosphere between the two people was abnormal, and several people present felt it.

Cui Yurong looked at the prince with indifferent eyes, and then at Zhao Xiwei who was blushing and ears were dry, his face was full of confusion: "Sister Wei, what's wrong with you."

Cui Yutang was also surprised and asked: "Your Highness, are you also familiar with Miss Zhao?"

"I'm not familiar with you." Li Xuanye uttered two words lightly, and glanced at Cui Yutang, "Cui Duhou's new official took office, it should be the busiest time, why do you have the time to come out to treat guests?"

The back of Cui Yutang's head went numb, and the smile froze on his face: "Isn't Hu Cao busy looking for information, and borrowed all the people under my subordinates to help..."

As he spoke, he suddenly felt that the gaze above him became more serious, he hurriedly arched his hands, and with a smile on his face, he added: "Although all the people in this humble minister have been borrowed, but the minister did not want to be lazy, isn't this just about to be done?" Let’s go to Hucao to help too! It’s just that Miss Zhao also wants to go to Hucao, so I’ll take a ride along the way.”

Cui Yutang and Pei Linfeng were originally in the Huben Army, responsible for the night patrol of the Zichen Palace, and they were trusted by the emperor.

There was a turmoil in Lianhua Temple, Wang Fan was deprived of his post, and the guards involved in the northern and southern palaces were also changed all over the place. The crown prince nominated Cui and Pei as the chiefs of Yemensi in the two palaces.

Although they are no longer the emperor's guards, their power has grown, so the two are very grateful for the prince's support and support.

As if to prove that he was not lying, Cui Yutang pointed at Zhao Xiwei again, and said, "Your Highness, you must have heard that Miss Zhao's aunt was taken away by Hu Cao, saying that there was a problem with her household registration. If the family is friendly like this, the subordinates happen to be able to help with small favors, so it is incumbent on them."

Zhao Xi lowered his head slightly, and was so pointed at by Cui Yutang, he felt distressed in his heart.

It is true that which pot is not opened and which pot is lifted. It is obvious that His Royal Highness is displeased with the few of them laughing in the street, and Cui Yutang keeps pushing himself out.

"Really?" Li Xuanye glanced at Zhao Xi slightly again, "Miss Zhao is going to Hucao?"

Seeing him calling himself by name, Zhao Xiwei hurriedly answered bravely: "His Royal Highness, just as Mr. Cui said, my daughter is going to Hucao to visit my aunt."

Li Xuanye's eyes paused on her face for a moment, then looked at Cui Yutang, and said indifferently: "It's just right, I'm going to Hucao too."

"That's such a coincidence! Why don't we let the minister drive the chariot for His Highness!" Cui Yutang's loyal look made the corner of Yuan Ce's mouth twitch while sitting on the shaft of the chariot.

Pei Linfeng next to him couldn't stand it any longer, and coughed lightly, reminding this cheerful cousin to pay attention to his image.

Cui Yutang was still full of disapproval, and patted the shaft of the car with his hand: "Cousin, don't you want to sit outside the car? You don't know, Your Highness's carriage is much more comfortable than our flat-headed cart!"

Not only Pei Linfeng, but even Zhao Xiwei's expression changed.

After Cui Yurong called out in a low voice, Cui Yutang came to his senses and said with a smile: "Your highness is rude, please don't blame me."

Li Xuanye didn't seem to mind, and only glanced at Zhao Xiwei again, then put down the curtain: "Let's go."

"Yes." Yuan Ce took the reins.

Cui Yutang's heart relaxed, and he quietly showed a smiling face to the three people behind him, "Why is your Highness not as indifferent as you think?" Then he jumped into his cab.

Pei Linfeng shook his head, and nodded slightly to Zhao Xi: "Young lady and sister Yurong, please go first, and Yutang and I will be in the rear."

Zhao Xi thanked him with a smile, and the three carriages drove slowly out of Zhuque Street, heading towards Hucao.

The government offices of various ministries are located in Zhuquemen, and the atmosphere here is solemn and solemn. The officials and guards who come and go are used to putting on an iceberg-like face, for fear of being caught by the censor in charge of the picket.

However, this time when Zhao Xiwei got out of the car, he saw a group of officials in red robes coming out to greet him. With smiles on their faces and courteous words, they almost missed Li Xuanye's shoulders and legs.

Hu Caoxuan Tang Heng was around thirty, with a curly and curly mustache, he bowed down amidst the mountain of files and said, "My minister sees His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

Li Xuanye nodded slightly, and he stepped aside.

There was silence all around, and the officials turned their eyes to Zhao Xiwei curiously.

Those with sharp eyes felt familiar, and couldn't help muttering in a low voice: "Is she the one who stopped the prime minister's carriage at Suzaku Gate that day?"
