People in the early Tang Dynasty: I compete with Wu Zhao for the throne

Chapter 553 New woman, Xie Junen

In the dark room, slight footsteps sounded, followed by two red candles being lit.

Qiqiao subconsciously looked at the bed, and saw an exquisite and translucent figure covered by a bright red thin quilt. Under her long black hair, the beauty was sleeping soundly, and she seemed to be faintly naked.

A pair of black eyes suddenly appeared in Qiqiao's line of sight, and it was Li Xuan who was smiling but not smiling.

At some point, Li Xuan woke up.

Qiqiao's heart that had been suspended just now immediately let go, she bowed slightly, and just about to speak, she saw Li Xuan's hand that had been under the thin quilt pulled out, and waved at Qiqiao, Qiqiao immediately bowed and retreated. down.

Li Xuan lowered her head and looked at her wife who was lying on her side. Beneath her beautiful face was a contented and sweet smile. Occasionally she raised her eyebrows, as if complaining that Li Xuan was too rude.

The slight sound of breathing came into Li Xuan's ears rhythmically, which made him feel at ease.

Bowing his head and kissing his wife's cheek, Li Xuan got up quietly.

When they came to the outside room, after Qiqiao and Sijinruyu waited for Li Xuan to wash up, a series of secret letters were sent in silently.

Last night, seventeen fires broke out in Chang'an City, including the mansion of the prince, the mansion of the Turkic general, the houses of the common people, and the shop of Marquis Wu, but these fires were quickly extinguished.

Although no one saw the fire fighting in many places, the sound of fighting in the wind could be faintly heard.

Li Xuan didn't have much information about whose mansion it was, but a lot of people were used last night.

In the two counties of Wannian in Chang'an, hundreds of officials, Qianniuwei, Jinwuwei, and Dali Temple were all mobilized.

The Turks ran away?
Li Xuan looked at the information in his hand, and a conclusion suddenly appeared in his mind.

After carefully reading through the secret letter again, Li Xuan finally came to the same conclusion.

The Turks managed to escape from Chang'an.

How can this be?

The Jinwu Guard had been eyeing this wave of Turkic people a long time ago. Just looking at the formation last night, one could tell how long they had been deployed. Under such a situation, how could it be possible for people to run away?
What kind of opponent is Ming Chongyan facing?
Although it has always been said that the person who appeared in front of Li Xuan's eyes was Ashinayun, the head of Jianchang County, but she was just a chess piece thrown at the front desk, and the person who really calculated everything behind her was hidden very deep.

It is even very likely to be the King of the East China Sea.

As the king of the East China Sea, if Ming Chongyan did not guard against him, it would be very troublesome.

But today's secret message is that people from Dali Temple, Chang'an Wannian County, Qianniuwei, and Jinwuwei have searched all night, and they haven't closed their teams yet. The result is self-evident.

……

Li Xuan casually put these secret letters aside, he had absolutely no interest in intervening in these matters.

Even if the opponent did something in his mansion, Li Xuante just killed the "backhand" who sneaked into Peng Wang's mansion directly. He didn't report to the Wannian county government, nor informed Qian Niuwei, and he didn't even want to This matter has something to do with Peng Wangfu.

At the same time, Li Xuan was also secretly observing.

People from Dali Temple, Chang'an Wannian County, Chang'an Qianniuwei, and Chang'an Jinwuwei, how capable and efficient they are.

The current situation, these invisible things on weekdays, are clearly displayed in front of his eyes.

After processing the secret letter in his hand, Li Xuan had just returned to the bedroom when she saw Liu Jinyu got up, wearing a light pink tulle skirt, sitting in front of the bronze mirror, carefully drawing her eyebrows.

The red candle was still burning. In front of the bronze mirror, Liu Jinyu was so serious about drawing that she didn't even notice that Li Xuan had quietly appeared behind her.

On the bronze mirror, a hibiscus face gently emerged, with flushed cheeks, star-like eyes, and slightly drooping eyelashes.

Between the lips, there is a piece of pink rouge flower, delicate and tender, with a green charm.

As soon as Liu Jinyu raised her head, she saw Li Xuan who was staring at her, and her face immediately blushed.

"Ahem!" Li Xuan turned her head and glanced at the bed, which had already been tidied up.

Those embarrassing things have been completely hidden.

The corners of Li Xuan's mouth curled up slightly, and she stretched out her hands to press Liu Jinyu's shoulders, and then said softly, "My lady is beautiful and moving, if you continue to draw, Fairy Chang'e will be envious when she sees it."

"Lang Jun!" Liu Jinyu turned her head, gave Li Xuan a shy and angry look, followed closely, and said with a little anxiety: "But I still feel that the eyebrows on the left are a little shallow, and the eyebrows on the right are a little darker." The lord can't see it, the concubine mother can definitely see it, the concubine doesn't dare to be so careless, because it's the first time to formally meet her mother-in-law, so there can be no mistakes."

"Today, how can my husband not know that you have put a lot of effort into your makeup, but you are right, the eyebrows on the left are indeed a bit shallow, and the eyebrows on the right are a bit darker, come on, my husband will draw it for you." Li Xuan said without hesitation. Just took the eyebrow pencil.

Liu Jinyu looked at Li Xuan with some doubts, but still sat there and let Li Xuan rest on her eyebrows...

"Oh, the painting is crooked... My lord, my good lord, go and change your clothes, I draw it by myself." Liu Jinyu directly drove Li Xuan out of the inner room, looking at the uneven eyebrows in front of her, she again It's angry and funny, and at the same time, there is a little peace of mind in my heart.

Her husband has never put makeup on other women.

……

"Grandmother, please use tea." Li Xuan and Liu Jinyu knelt on the futon, and passed the green tea in their hands upwards to Ouyang's hand. Ouyang gave Liu Jinyu a satisfied look, and then He took a sip of the tea and said softly, "Get up."

Li Xuan then supported Liu Jinyu to stand up.

"Sanniang, my mother has been in Chang'an for the past few months this year, and my mother will accompany you well." Ouyang reached out and took Liu Jinyu's hand, Liu Jinyu bowed her head shyly and nodded.

Li Xuan corrected subconsciously: "Mum, Sanniang should be with you."

"Go, go, don't understand anything, just go." Ouyang gave Li Xuan an angry look, and then looked at the bride again.

She was wearing a bright red skirt with small clusters of flowers, a purple belt around her waist, her temples were drooping, and a hairpin inlaid with pearls and jasper was inserted obliquely.

People have a beautiful face and a moony appearance, and their skin is like a lotus emerging from water.

As she lowered her head and looked down, there was a hint of shyness, which made people feel a little affectionate.

Ouyang patted the back of Liu Jinyu's hand, and said softly: "Go, go and change your clothes first, let Da Lang take you to worship the gods and ancestors, and then the eldest princess and your aunt should come over later. "

"Here!" Liu Jinyu immediately agreed softly.

Only then did Li Xuan help her up, went back to the room and changed into a blue skirt, and then went to the backyard, the ancestral hall.

After offering sacrifices to the gods and ancestors, Li Xuan personally wrote Liu Jinyu's name on the book above.

"This is for you and my future children and grandchildren. Don't be careless." Li Xuan turned her head and looked at Liu Jinyu.

Liu Jinyu responded shallowly: "Yes!"

Back in the bedroom, and changed back to the big red skirt, Li Xuan and Liu Jinyu came to the main hall to serve tea to Princess Huainan, two aunts, Princess Qianjin and other concubines, sisters, and sisters-in-law.

Li Xuan originally thought that on the second day of the wedding, even if there were relatives, not too many people would come.

Unexpectedly, almost every family's female relatives came, and Li Xuan and Liu Jinyu respected tea for a long time.

Among them, little Zhao Huan came over to offer Liu Jinyu a cup of tea.

Laughing and eating too much breakfast, it was at this time that the palace's order came.

……

At the second quarter of the first lunar month, Li Xuan wore a purple five-python and five-zhang king's uniform, and Liu Jinyu wore a purple elm dress with Zhai bird pattern and a nine-tin headdress. Under the guidance of the servants, they entered the Zichen Palace.

It was rare for Empress Wu not to review the memorial. She sat on the high platform and looked at Li Xuan and Liu Jinyu standing side by side with satisfaction.

She saw Li Xuan more times, and more often Liu Jinyu.

She was dressed in luxurious Zhai clothes, her hair was combed high, and there were a few peonies pinned on her hair. She had a dignified face, fair skin, reddish cheeks, and elegant demeanor. She looked quite lovable.

Now as the princess of Nanchang, Empress Wu is extremely satisfied.

The things that Liu Jinyu secretly helped Liu Rengui couldn't be hidden from the eyes of Empress Wu. After all, Liu Rengui was over 70, and he could forgive him for his lack of energy. However, some people suggested that Liu Jinyu should marry Prime Minister Li Dan, and Empress Wu immediately became alert stand up.

Now that the King of Nanchang is cheaper, it is cheaper if it is cheaper, it is not just right.

Empress Wu smiled, looked at Li Xuan and Liu Jinyu with a gentle face, and said, "The king of Nanchang is resolute and decisive, and the princess of Nanchang is dignified and magnificent. This is a perfect couple. I am very pleased."

"Thank you for your praise." Li Xuan and Liu Jinyu bowed to Wuzhou at the same time.

After a while, Empress Wu went on to say: "Growing jade in Lantian, many children are blessed, King Nanchang, you and Princess Nanchang should have more children, and then spread the Nanchang Palace, and live up to the trust of our ancestors." .”

"My minister, my concubine obeys the order and will definitely live up to the queen's expectations." Li Xuan and Liu Jinyu bowed to Empress Wu again at the same time, solemnly and sincerely.

Although the future Empress Wu will ascend the throne and proclaim himself emperor, killing the clan, but in the immediate future, Empress Wu is still good to Li Xuan.

Empress Wu turned sideways and looked at the female crown beside her: "Decree, give two pairs of lotus roots."

"Thank you, Queen of Heaven." Li Xuan and Liu Jinyu immediately handed each other over.

"Okay, you guys go down, there is no need to bother His Majesty, and there is also the Crown Prince, the King of Nanchang got married, and the Crown Prince knows that he has worked hard." Empress Wu couldn't help laughing.

"Minister, my concubine is resigning, the Empress Wan'an." Li Xuan and Liu Jinyu retreated slowly.

After exiting the palace city all the way, he boarded the carriage in the imperial city and drove slowly towards the outside of the palace.

Li Xuan held his wife's hand and said in a low voice: "The Empress Dowager is a kind person. Although she is very strict, if she achieves something, she will never hesitate to reward her."

Liu Jinyu understood the meaning of Li Xuan's words, responded softly, and then leaned in his arms like this.

Suddenly, the moving carriage stopped abruptly, and Liu Jinyu subconsciously leaned forward, but she was held tightly in Li Xuan's arms, and she heard Li Xuan jokingly say: "My lady, it's not too late yet." black."

"What nonsense, there are people outside." Liu Jinyu reached out and pinched Li Xuan's waist fiercely.

Li Xuan bared her teeth for a while, but still turned her body slightly, opened the corners of her eyes, looked outside the door, and then sighed softly: "Brother Jing Si, are you all so impatient?"

Qin Jun led a team of Jinwu Guards, who stood by Li Xuan's side, clasped his hands solemnly and said, "King of Nanchang, General Cheng welcomes you!"

Zuo Jinwuwei General Cheng Chubi?
Li Xuan frowned uncontrollably.
