The Heavens Begin with Zhuxian

Chapter 168 Protecting a person?

Ye Chao smiled at the queen who trotted over with a look of reproach, and said, "Aunt Xia, it's all right."

After finishing speaking, he also touched the head of the sixth prince, that is, the child just now.

The sixth prince was still in a state of trance at this time, because he had never seen a person with such a temperament that was so different from ordinary people in the palace, and listening to what the queen mother said, he thought that this was the second son who was accepted as an apprentice by the master at birth. Brother, but I bumped into him, but he seemed so gentle.

"Second brother, Hu Po offended me just now, please forgive me."

Ye Chao smiled and patted the sixth prince's head, then followed his wife and queen to the small pond.

On the small pond is when the lotus is in full bloom, and the breeze from the surface of the pond can not help sending the fragrance into the mouth. Next to it are two tall and luxuriant Sophora japonica trees, and the cool shade comes from to them.

Under the shade of the tree, there was a large mahogany table carved with phoenix patterns. A man and a woman were already sitting on one side of the table. The man was about thirteen or fourteen years old. Shi Zheng had a sullen face.

The woman's facial features are exquisite, her black and smooth long hair is tied into a dignified high bun, and she is set off by a lavender fairy skirt with wide sleeves, making her look both strict and elegant.

After seeing Ye Chao, the boy's eyes showed extraordinary splendor. First of all, Ye Chao's appearance can make people exhilarated, and because of his identity, because of some stories about his early years that were passed down from Qinghe County a few years ago. , even more so.

The woman thought of the quarrel she had with her in the palace ten years ago, and now that they were both adults, she couldn't help but sigh at the passing of time.

However, this emotion only lasted for a moment, and she pulled the young man beside her and bowed to Concubine De.

"I've seen Aunt Defei."

After finishing speaking, she looked at Ye Chao again, and said with a gentle smile, "I don't know if I should be called the second younger brother, or the uncle?"

Li Yu's words seem very rude, but they are talking about an experience that the two had when they were young and ignorant. This relationship is also good.

But Ye Chao knew that his cheap princess sister wanted to compete with the queen for power after returning from the Golden Tent Royal Court, and he was too lazy to get involved in such things, so he smiled slightly: "Since today is a family banquet, then it is the second brother." .”

After finishing speaking, several people took their seats, and after chatting casually for a while, a voice like a duck's voice came from outside the queen's courtyard.

"The Emperor is here."

Soon, Tang Huang wearing a light yellow dragon robe appeared beside the shade of the tree, and several people got up to salute. Of course, Ye Chaoxing still performed the academy's salute, and Tang Huang looked at Ye Chao with a complicated expression.

There are many rules in the palace, but there are no rules at the family banquet, what should be said and what should be laughed.

The empress and Li Yu were the ones who talked the most, and the sixth prince Hu Po was the one who laughed the most.

Soon, the family banquet set up by the emperor to ease the conflict between the princess and the queen came to an end, but how could the conflict between the two be eased by a family banquet, so as soon as the family banquet ended, the princess brought Then Li Hunyuan stood up and left.

Seeing the princess leaving, Concubine De also had the intention of resigning. She glanced at Ye Chao, stood up and bowed, and said, "Your Majesty, since the family banquet is over, and the concubine happens to have something to do in Qingyou Palace, So I will take my leave with Zhao'er."

The emperor nodded, then seemed to think of something, and said: "Concubine De, let's go back first, stay with Chao'er, I have something to explain to him."

Ye Chao and his old lady nodded, watched the old lady leave, and then looked at Emperor Tang suspiciously.

Emperor Tang glanced at the queen, and then the queen took the sixth prince, Amber, and left under the shade of the tree.

"I need your help."

"There are so many experts around you, and this is Chang'an City, can you use me?"

Tang Huang was not annoyed by Ye Chao's evasion, but continued to say gently: "This matter was originally intended to trouble Master Yan Se, but in the early years of Xiling, an important talisman master died in the Daze, and now they To repair the formation of the temple, Master Yan Se was called back a few days ago."

Because he is the emperor of the Tang Dynasty, because of the relationship between the Tang State and the academy, and because of his relationship with Ye Chao, the back mountain of the academy did not hide from him about some things that happened in Daze ten years ago.

And Ye Chao also guessed the meaning of Tang Huang's words, since the cause of this matter lies with you, then you should accept the consequences no matter what.

"Tell me, what's the matter?"

"Help me protect myself."

Ye Chao asked, "Who?"

"Chao Xiaoshu."

It was only then that Ye Chao remembered that the princess had returned to the country now, and the entrance examination for the academy was about to begin. The Weicheng boy with the black maid should also be here, and the battle that took place on the Second Street of Chunfengting, East City, Chang’an City was about to begin. .

"it is good."

Tang Huang took out a fold from his sleeve and handed it to Ye Chao, then looked at a little lotus that had just burst out of the mud and bloomed.

……

……

With the arrival of night, a rain also followed, and the scorching heat of Chang'an City was dispelled, and the cool wind carrying the rain was wantonly wandering in the streets of Chang'an City.

A young man holding an oil-paper umbrella walked slowly in Lin 47 Lane. When he came to a lighted calligraphy and painting shop, he stopped and talked with the boy who was squatting and eating noodles at the door of the painting and calligraphy shop. stand up.

The young man is the owner of all the shops in Lin 47 Lane, and the young man is the tenant of the calligraphy and painting shop. However, what he said did not cater to the young man, but instead came from competing with him.

After a long time, the young man said, "I need someone by my side."

The boy asked, "What kind of person?"

"Fast enough, ruthless enough and brave enough, you can't blink your eyes when killing people, and you can't let anything fall on me."

The boy pondered for a long time, pointed at the rainwater and asked, "Does it include it?"

"Not included."

"That's easy."

……

……

The rain became heavier, and the dense rainwater hit the eaves of the blue tiles and fell from them, forming an uninterrupted water curtain with the bluestone ground.

The young man was carrying a knife, a boxwood hardwood bow, a quiver, and a black mask commonly used by warriors of the Moonland Kingdom. He held an umbrella for the young man and walked towards the Spring Breeze Pavilion.

A dark-faced little maid in the kitchen of Laobizhai rested her chin on her hands and looked at the burning flame under the stove, muttering from time to time: "Young master must come back safely, young master must come back safely."

On the top of a high-rise building to the northeast of the Spring Breeze Pavilion, there was a young man in white clothes. The raging rain wet his hair and clothes, but he seemed to have never heard of it, and from time to time he licked his mouth. Drinking the fine wine collected in the palace, looking forward to the Spring Breeze Pavilion and Tingyu Pavilion, there will be a good show there in a while.

(By the way, this chapter quotes a short conversation in Jiang Yezhong. Also, in the original book, Wang Jinglue didn’t attack Chao Xiaoshu before he was beaten away by Master Yan Se. In the TV series, he only met Chao Xiaoshu. Yan Se, the following plot is from the TV series.)
