Prince of Tang Dynasty

Chapter 217 Visiting the Xiao Mansion

After leaving Wu Yuanqing's mansion, Gao Ming took Wu Mei into the carriage and headed towards Suzaku Gate.

After a cup of tea, the carriage stopped at the entrance of the Datang Royal Club on Zhuque Avenue, and then Gao Ming got out of the carriage with his arms around Wu Mei's slender waist.

Standing at the door of the clubhouse, Gao Ming smiled slightly at Wu Mei.

"Okay, I'll take you here, go in!"

Seeing Gao Ming's gentle smile, Wu Mei nodded lightly, with a trace of reluctance flashing across her face.

"Your Highness...won't you go in and have a meeting?"

Hearing Wu Mei's words, Gao Ming smiled and shook his head.

"Not today. Lord Xiao invited me to be a guest at his residence when the court is coming down. I have already agreed. You stay in the clubhouse. I will come to see you tomorrow!"

Seeing that Gao Ming refused, a trace of disappointment flashed across Wu Mei's face, but she still smiled and bowed to Gao Ming.

"Meiniang understands. Please rest assured, Your Highness, Meiniang will definitely take care of the Datang Royal Club."

"Well, I believe you!"

Gao Ming agreed, got into the carriage, and waved to Wu Mei.

"Okay, you go in, I'm leaving too!"

"Meiniang sends His Royal Highness the Crown Prince respectfully!"

Seeing Gao Ming's carriage gradually go away until it disappeared completely, Wu Mei then turned and entered the royal club.

When Wu Mei turned around and walked into the royal club, Gao Ming had just lowered the curtain of the rear window of the carriage, and then heaved a long sigh.

"Hey... It seems that Wu Mei, a little girl, is also impressed by the charm of this handsome man. It seems that I am so clever that I have not insulted the word 'Love Saint'..."

Before Gao Ming could finish his sentence, a muffled voice suddenly came from outside the carriage.

"His Royal Highness, why don't you call yourself a beast?"

"..."

Hearing this voice, Gao Ming took a deep breath, then pulled the curtain of the car and roared outside.

"Huzi, you son of a bitch, what the hell is your uncle, what I just said is a love saint, not a beast! You don't feel comfortable if you don't make me angry for a day, right? If you don't speak, no one will treat you as a mute!"

"..."

Seeing that Huzi lowered his head and stopped talking, Gao Ming calmed down the anger in his heart slowly, and closed his eyes to rest his mind.

After a cup of tea, Gao Ming opened the curtain of the car again, and asked Huzi outside, "Has Duke Song's mansion arrived yet?"

Hearing Gao Ming's question, Huzi immediately shook his head.

Seeing this scene, Gao Ming put down the curtain of the car, then sat back and continued to close his eyes to rest.

The time for another cup of tea passed, and Gao Ming opened the curtain of the car again.

"Isn't it here yet?"

Hearing his question, Huzi shook his head again, seeing this scene, Gao Ming was immediately puzzled.

"Song Guogong's mansion is in the West Market. According to our speed, it should be there, right?"

Huzi shook his head again.

Now Gao Ming had no choice but to put down the car curtain again, then sit back and continue to close his eyes to rest his mind.

It was time for another cup of tea, but there was still no sign of the carriage stopping. Now Gao Ming was even more puzzled, so he simply opened the curtain on the side of the carriage and looked outside.

After seeing this, Gao Ming was surprised to find that he was back on Zhuque Street again, and he quickly shouted outside.

"Stop, stop, stop for me!"

As he spoke, he pulled the curtain of the carriage, pointed at the hundred riders who were driving the carriage, and started cursing.

"Your uncle, it's fun to take me around in circles, isn't it?"

Hearing Gao Ming's words, the Baiqiwei driving the carriage suddenly showed aggrieved face.

"His Royal Highness, it's not that you don't stop, but..."

Having said that, the Baiqi guard immediately glanced at the tiger next to the carriage, and then fell silent.

Seeing this scene, Gao Ming immediately understood, and he immediately turned his attention to Huzi.

"Huzi, are you the one who didn't let him stop?"

Hearing Gao Ming's words, Hu Zi immediately shook his head again, seeing his action, Gao Ming immediately became angry.

"Don't shake your head all the time, you are talking, are you dumb?"

Speaking of this, Gao Ming suddenly remembered that he had scolded Huzi before, saying that he "doesn't talk and no one thinks he is dumb". Could this kid mean it?
Thinking of this, Gao Ming suddenly sighed helplessly.

"Huzi, now you can talk, tell me why you let me go around in circles."

"I don't know the way."

"..."

There is no doubt that this is a very strong reason, and Gao Ming can't even find a place to refute him.

Datang is a place where ranks are emphasized, and here besides being clever, Huzi is the person with the highest status, so the hundred cavalry guards driving the carriage did not dare to go beyond the slightest, even if they had already reached their destination, but seeing Huzi Even if the son didn't speak, he could only drive the car dully, not daring to stop.

Gao Ming had not been in Datang for a short time, and he knew this, so he could only wave his hand at the Baiqiwei who was driving the carriage.

"From now on, you don't have to pay attention to other people. When you arrive at Song Guogong's mansion, stop and call me. You don't need Huzi's consent. This is what I said, and it's not a violation of the rules."

"Yes!"

After Gao Ming gave the order himself, the situation really changed. The carriage stopped within less than a cup of tea.

"His Royal Highness, we are here!"

"Ok!"

Gao Ming agreed and walked out, looking at the low-browed tiger outside the carriage, he immediately sighed.

"Okay, Huzi, I don't mean to blame you. You just need to be more careful in the future!"

Hearing that Gao Ming said that he was not to blame, Hu Zi suddenly became happy.

"Your Highness the Crown Prince don't blame me? That's great, by the way, Your Highness the Crown Prince, how can I be more considerate?"

"..."

Looking at the puzzled Huzi, Gao Ming felt that what he said to him was completely superfluous, so Gao Ming had no choice but to sigh, and then pointed to the gate of Xiaofu.

"With your IQ, you don't want to grow up with the mind. You should call the door."

"Okay!"

Hearing Gao Ming's words, Huzi suddenly became happy again, and went up with a sledgehammer in his hand. Seeing this scene, Gao Ming seemed to have thought of something, and quickly yelled at him.

"Only knock on the door with your hands, not with a sledgehammer!"

As soon as Gao Ming finished speaking, he saw Huzi turn his head and look at him suspiciously.

"His Royal Highness, I know this, and I am not stupid!"

"..."

Damn, I'm stupid, right?

Looking at the usually honest and honest tiger, but every time he uttered a word, Gao Ming made himself jump with anger, Gao Ming suddenly realized how Li Shimin felt towards him back then.

"Oh, sure enough, if you come out to play around, you always have to pay it back."

Thinking of this, Gao Ming couldn't help sighing.

"Forget my mistake, go and call the door!"

"Hey, good!"

Hu Zi quickly called the door open, Gao Ming had just entered the gate of Xiao Mansion when he saw Xiao Yu greet him with a smile on his face.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is coming to the humble house. I am sorry to welcome the old man, forgive me!"

Seeing Xiao Yu came out, Gao Ming immediately smiled and bowed to him.

"Song Guogong is very polite. The late emperor once praised you and said, 'The words of the public are relied on by the country'. You are the pillar of our Tang Dynasty. I am already very happy that you can come out to welcome me."

As the saying goes, it's called "Thousands of wears, thousands of wears, flattery and no wear", and Gao Ming still borrowed Li Yuan's mouth, so although Xiao Yu has always been self-confident and upright, he still feels comfortable physically and mentally under the high label of Gao Ming.

"Hahahaha, His Royal Highness, the crown prince is absurd, I really can't afford it, please hurry up, please!"

"Please, Duke Song!"

Looking at Xiao Yu who was smiling all over his face, Gao Ming immediately muttered in his heart.

"People say that Xiao Yu is an old man who is hard to get along with, but it doesn't seem to be the case now. This old man is quite kind, not as nonsense as everyone said."

In fact, Gao Ming didn't know that the reason why Xiao Yu was so friendly with him was mainly because of Empress Xiao's sake, because if it wasn't for Gao Ming's intervention, Empress Xiao might end up dying in the palace.

Xiao Yu treated Gao Ming with courtesy because of his gratitude to Gao Ming. Otherwise, just because he didn't go to court every day and was still entangled with businessmen, it would be considered good if Xiao Yu didn't impeach him. He is amiable?

But as the saying goes, the country is easy to change and the nature is hard to change. Xiao Yu is used to being a slapstick. After three rounds of drinking, as soon as the alcohol comes up, Xiao Yu's straight male and cancerous nature is exposed.

"My sister was already in her sixtieth year when she returned to the Tang Dynasty, but His Majesty refused to let her go home, and called her into the harem instead. This is really not the act of a benevolent monarch."

Hearing Xiao Yu's words, a trace of helplessness appeared on Gao Ming's face.

"Lao Li is not a benevolent king? I already knew this, so why don't you say it? But can you not say it in front of me, anyway, he is also my father in name, you make it difficult for me to do this !"

At this time Xiao Yu's sister, Empress Xiao, was also present, seeing Gao Ming's expression was not right, she immediately persuaded Xiao Yu embarrassingly.

"Shiwen, you're too drunk, stop talking."

Empress Xiao meant to tell Xiao Yu not to talk, and at the same time told Gao Ming from the side that Xiao Yu was talking while drunk, and told Gao Ming not to be as knowledgeable as him.

In fact, Gao Ming didn't intend to argue with Xiao Yu about this matter. After all, he was a fierce man who offended both the civil and military courts and the emperor, and was dismissed six times. It doesn't make any sense at all.

Gao Ming knew this very well, so he immediately smiled at Empress Xiao.

"Don't worry, Aunt Xiao. I forgot Song Guogong's words when I went out today, and I will definitely not spread them to the outside world."

Hearing Gao Ming's words, Empress Xiao immediately gave Gao Ming a grateful smile, and then stretched out her hand to gently pull Xiao Yu.

"Shiwen, you are drunk, go and rest first."

If it is an ordinary person, someone else gave him a step, then he should borrow the slope to go down the donkey, but it is obvious that Xiao Yu is not such a person.

As soon as Empress Xiao finished speaking, he immediately stood up.

"When I was Xiao, my writing was indomitable, and I never regretted what I said. Even if you tell Your Majesty like this, His Royal Highness, I will still say that!"

Hearing Xiao Yu's words, Gao Ming also raised his brows.

Are you doing something?
