Madam, look at the sword!

Chapter 55
The chance encounter between Zhao Chengfeng and Cui Zhi did not form an effective acquaintance.

After sending the future father-in-law back to King Jing's Mansion, he returned to the mansion and slept until dawn. Then he found that the weather outside seemed to have changed.

The situation in Kyoto, which had just cleared up last night, suddenly changed. There was no sun early this morning, and it was like a dark night. It seemed that there would be another heavy rain at some point.

Mei Niang came to report early, bringing an invitation and a piece of news.

The invitation was from Princess Tongzhu, the fifth prince's youngest daughter. Because she was going to join the army, she organized a 'sleeping tour', which was considered a formal farewell to the Kyoto circle.

Although Zhao Chengfeng didn't know her, since he was invited, it was difficult to refuse, because Princess Tongzhu was probably only a nominal organizer, and he had already rejected the two invitations last time.
Therefore, I really have to go this time, otherwise it will be too disrespectful to the royal family and relatives.

And the message is:
——The news that the third prince wants to marry the young princess has spread throughout the twelve districts of Kyoto.

After brewing all night last night, this matter has now become a storm of public opinion.

The talk in the entire Kyoto after dinner is all about the third prince and the young princess.

The reason for this is naturally because the two of them should be the most famous boy and girl among the younger generation, and this time they are involved in the Great Wilderness.

Triangular relationships are inherently eye-catching, but the key is that the woman in this triangular relationship is the little princess who was once smart and bright in the eyes of the world, but is now insane.

The people of Kyoto had never seen or heard anything new. It was the first time they saw a strange scene where a prince and an heir apparent wanted to rob a fool.

And even if we don’t mention the current situation of the little princess.

People only think that she is still the same as before, and when they think about the two people who want to marry her, they are also different from each other.
The common people did not want to see the little princess they had watched grow up marry into the wilderness.

But what if you marry the third prince who went to Hanafune on the first day he entered Kyoto?
It is said that the lesser of two powers harm each other. I really can’t tell who is worse, the third prince of Dahuang and the third prince of Dangbei Palace.
Under the entanglement, the level of discussion among the people naturally intensified.

And at a moment like this.

Last night, the Third Prince of Dahuang also staged an artistic performance award.

Rumor has it that he went to a wine shop closest to the post house and drank until dawn.

When the time came, he bought all the wine in the winery and smashed jars one by one early in the morning. More than 1000 jars were smashed.

It is said that the street of the Inn is now filled with the smell of alcohol. I don’t know how many rats and wild cats have been drunk. Many drunkards with no money have heard about it and filled the drains that were relatively clean after being washed by the rain yesterday. Woolen cloth.

When Mei Niang said this, she found that Zhao Chengfeng was stunned for a while.

There were only a few people who knew the news yesterday.

The people in Prince Jing's Mansion will naturally not tell the outside world. Although Zhao Chengfeng, the senior brother of Lixian Sect, has no intention of getting involved, I believe it is not them.

The rest was only in the palace, but it may not have been passed down by Concubine Chen. After all, there were some maids and eunuchs waiting outside the imperial study at that time.

It doesn't matter, it's just that when the news got out, why did the Third Prince of Dahuang do such a highly performative thing?
Zhao Chengfeng: "Is he seeking sympathy?"

Liu Meiniang said solemnly: "The third prince of Dangbei Palace bullied others, ignored the royal family's promise, and actually wanted to rob the little princess who was originally promised to the third prince of Dahuang. The third prince of Dahuang knew that he was unable to resist in the capital of Zhoutian, so he got drunk all night and drank wine to vent his anger. "

Zhao Chengfeng asked back: "Purpose?"

Liu Meiniang replied: "People from the three major sects have been surrounding him recently."

Zhao Chengfeng frowned.

Liu Meiniang: "We have only been in Kyoto for a short time, and we don't know what the three major sects are trying to do. I will check it out as soon as possible. It may have something to do with why he did what he did."

Zhao Chengfeng nodded: "I originally planned to meet him today, so I won't send you the invitation for now. I want to see what else this third prince can do."

"The prince is today?"

Zhao Chengfeng yawned, turned and walked to the bedroom: "Sleep, listen to the rain, and wait for the red clouds."

……

The third prince did not disappoint the third prince.

He was still smashing wine jars in the morning, and even though the heavy rain continued that night, he still got on a flower boat on the Huaihe River.Early the next morning, when Zhao Chengfeng was having breakfast, he heard Mei Niang's report.

It was said that the third prince of Dahuang was lying in the arms of a servant girl on the flower boat last night and said angrily that the third prince of Dangbei Palace had gone too far.

According to the Qingguan's recollection this morning, the man on the grassland of the Third Prince of Dahuang felt wronged like a little wife last night. After drinking too much, he even shed a tear with the smell of horse manure.

When Zhao Chengfeng heard this, he almost spit out the mouthful of porridge he just drank.

"No, why didn't I realize that this third prince has the talent to join the theater troupe before?"

Liu Meiniang didn't answer the question: "I went to see some nails yesterday and said that the third prince had mines in his hands."

Zhao Chengfeng put down the jade spoon: "Ore?"

"There is a spiritual vein located outside Qingling Pass, which is far away from the Zhoutian border. However, if the Great Wilderness retreats north and cannot be taken care of, there should not be many spiritual crystals in the spiritual vein, but the natural spirit gathering effect will still be there."

Zhao Chengfeng rarely became solemn: "Continue."

"So if the people from the three major sects want to occupy this spiritual vein after retreating to the north of Dahuang, they may help the third prince of Dahuang do some inappropriate things."

After listening, Zhao Chengfeng said: "It's a bit interesting." Then he continued to drink porridge.

Liu Meiniang frowned: "But I haven't linked them together yet. I always feel that these things can be connected together."

Zhao Chengfeng put down the porridge bowl: "Don't worry, just wait and see."

With that said, he handed the empty bowl to Bai Zhi beside him: "One more bowl."

"Your Majesty today?"

"Don't go anywhere, leave Kyoto to the third prince."

……

The Third Prince is determined to leave the stage to the Third Prince.

But today, the third prince has ceased his activities. I wonder if the tears smelling like horse manure yesterday consumed all his acting skills, or maybe he is waiting for his actions to be spread in Kyoto and waiting for public opinion to ferment.

In short, early on the third day, Zhao Chengfeng, who didn't want to go out and wanted to watch a show, had to leave the mansion.

Because he was going to participate in Princess Tongzhu's "sleeping tour" invitation.

When Zhao Chengfeng rode a carriage all the way to the Liyuan on the outskirts of Beijing, he saw a gathering of exotic animals and wild horses in front of the door, so it was not difficult to see the carriage of the Prince of Beijing, which, like him, only used good horses to pull the carriage.

Saw the familiar family of three.

Zhao Chengfeng, who didn't know the relationship between Princess Tongzhu and the young princess Wei Huanchu, raised his eyebrows and didn't understand why she came.

But of course, he immediately got out of the car and walked up to the sunshine that was finally clear today.

At the same time, the post house responsible for receiving the Third Prince of Dahuang was extremely quiet this morning.

The third prince sat at the head of the long table. On his left were scholars and Confucian scholars from Jingzong, and on his right were Xuanzong's warriors and Qingzong's shopkeeper.

They are sitting here naturally because they have important things to discuss.

But it seemed that serious differences had just occurred, the opinions were not consistent, and they could not convince each other, so they all chose to remain silent at this time.

The third prince, who likes to bare his upper body and show off his explosive muscle lines, quickly broke the silence.

He spoke firmly: "I have to consider whether this will be my only chance in this life."

"Whoever can help this prince accomplish this will take everything."
