The prince's chariot was in front of him, the guards were on the side, the civil and military officials were behind him, and some East Palace assistant officials and family members and servants who came with the prince stayed on the two big ships behind him.
The prince's tour to the south is not a trivial matter, it can be said to attract attention. The total number of accompanying officials of the eastern palace and the officials sent by the imperial court to participate in the sacrificial ceremony reached 100. In addition, musicians, sacrificial wine, cooks, clerks, and concubines, all of whom Li Chengqian was very handy, came together. There were three or five hundred people on the two ships behind him, and they carried a lot of goods.
When Princess Gaoyang arrived at the dock, the warships were moving and unloading goods. Many soldiers left by Qin mubai were specialized in these things, and Pang Fei was in charge of them.
No one is allowed to enter the military dock, even if the emperor's relatives and senior officials come. The guard is the same as the military camp. However, seeing that it was Princess Gaoyang, the soldiers knew his relationship with Qin mubai, so they had to let him go.
Gaoyang Princess excitedly rushed into the dock, looking around, some silly eyes: so many people. Several big ships are unloading. Where can I find Wu Meiniang?
With a plan in mind, Princess Gaoyang smiles and shakes her head to attract more than a dozen big soldiers. She says to them, "listen, our palace is looking for someone, but I don't know where to look. You guys need to be loud. Call me
these soldiers were stunned: "Princess Royal, how to shout?"
, "you shout loudly -- Changan's Wu Mei Niang, your Highness Princess is waiting for you here!"
"Well Yes
how dare the military sergeants begin to shout loudly and loudly, "the Wu Mei Niang from Changan, the royal highness of Gao Yang is waiting for you here!"
Thanks to the soldiers, they have a strong voice. These roars suppressed all the noise and made the people on the wharf hear them. Many people laughed, but word of mouth began to spread that Princess Gaoyang was waiting for Wu Meiniang at the dock.
At this time, Wu Meiniang, with several powerful female subordinates, was directing the porters to move and unload many goods brought from Chang'an, such as wine, silk and satin, as well as many materials needed to open a shop. There were hundreds of stones, which piled up like a mountain in the cabin.
Hearing the news, Wu Meiniang was very happy. She got off the boat with several attendants and trotted to Princess Gaoyang.
"Ha ha, Meiniang, let me call you out!" Princess Gaoyang clapped her hands and laughed happily. She said to the big soldiers, "well, don't shout. Go ahead! I'll tell you, general Qin, that you've helped me. There must be a reward. Hee hee
"thank you, your highness!" Those soldiers were amused and left laughing.
"See Princess Wu Zhao." Wu Meiniang came forward and saluted in a hurry.
"Hee hee, I didn't expect that we would meet again in Chang'an!" Gaoyang Princess joyful way, "all the way hard, you dizzy not seasick?"
"Not bad." Wu Meiniang smiles, looks around and says, "have they gone, prince?"
"Yes, those big men, they are boring." Princess Gaoyang said, "they only care about their own dignity. They only know how to talk about national affairs, and they don't care about us. You see how nice I am. I've come all the way to meet you. "
"Your Highness, how can Wu Zhao dare? Such a formal occasion is really inconvenient for us! You see, the prince's own concubines are all in the same boat with me Wu Meiniang said with a smile, "Your Highness has been in Xiangzhou for many days. Are you still used to living here?"
"I'm used to it, just..." Princess Gaoyang turned her lips and sighed, "it's a bit of a disappointment. It's very sad. Do you know that my sister-in-law, the third brother's concubine, passed away some time ago. Originally, I thought of Xiangzhou and had a good time with them. Did not expect, recently has been accompanied by tears. Ah, you see, my eyes are a little red and swollen! "
Wu Meiniang was stunned. She nodded and said, "what a pity. I think the crown princess is about our age. It's a pity to go so early! "
"Well, Meiniang, don't say these unhappy things when we just met. You leave the wharf affairs to your subordinates. Hee hee, take my car. Let's go to the prince's brother's Xingyuan for dinner together! " Princess Gaoyang said with a smile.
"Yes, but That's not the right occasion for business women like me? " Wu Meiniang said.
"Nonsense, what's wrong with it!" Princess Gaoyang raised her face and said angrily, "don't pay attention to those men, and what rules are there. Now, you are my friend, even in the Imperial City, you can go boldly, not to mention the prince's brother? Let's go. Don't be so wordy. Hurry up and go after them. Hee hee
"All right!" Wu Meiniang had no choice but to smile. She handed over the business to her subordinates, and boarded the car with Princess Gaoyang, hoping to leave Xiangyang County.
The second daughter was sitting in the car. Princess Gaoyang happily hugged Wu Meiniang's elbow and said with a smile, "Meiniang, it's good that you're here! You know, mubai, he let me down. Hum! I haven't had time to play with me after so long. I've been busy with his military affairs. I'm so bored. I take people around the streets every day. My shoes are worn out. People all over the city want to know me. ""Hehe, why don't you repair him well?" Wu Meiniang said with a smile.
"I dare not. Hey, hey, or you won't let me go! " Princess Gaoyang smiles like a thief.
"Oh, what are you saying?" Wu Meiniang laughed, "you are a princess!"
"Hee hee, don't we have a secret agreement? Outside, I am a princess, you have to honor me and listen to me; in private. You are my sister, and I will listen to you. " Princess Gaoyang said with a smile, "it's all because that guy is too playful. It's hateful. Neither of us can monopolize him. There's no way. So I can only take half of him. The other half is yours, so I don't dare to mess about! "
"Hee hee Wu Meiniang also laughed, "this secret engagement, you didn't tell that guy?"
"I'm not that stupid!" Princess Gaoyang said with a triumphant smile, "he must still be in trouble now. We are together. What should he do? Hum. At that time, let's unite to deal with him, and we won't be afraid of his bullying! "
"Dare you Did he bully you? " Wu Meiniang said with a warm smile, deliberately emphasizing the word "bully".
"Ah No, no! " Princess Gaoyang's face turned red.
"Hee hee Wu Meiniang was amused.
"No laughing, no laughing!" Princess Gaoyang cried out a few times, then suddenly she began to laugh, "Meiniang. You've known him for a long time, and your engagement must have been That one's gone, isn't it? "
"Which one?" Wu Meiniang asked seriously.
"Oh, it's just That, that! "
"Well, which one?"
"Well. I won't tell you! You are as cunning as he is
……
At the crown prince's place, Li Chengqian got off the chariot and looked around. He nodded with satisfaction: "yes, it's a unique water country house. I like it very much."
"The prince likes it. Before that, some people were worried that you were not satisfied! " Li daozong said.
Xiao Yu's face was cold. I didn't say a word.
"No way!" Li Chengqian said with a smile, "no matter what kind of residence it is, as long as it is arranged by the third younger brother and general Qin, it's their intention. I will be satisfied anyway. OK, everyone, please come in and have a rest. The cooks and other workers are still behind. We'll prepare for the banquet later! "
"Don't bother the prince. In the early morning, I called the cooks and miscellaneous workers I brought from Chang'an here. I've been busy preparing for the banquet all morning, and now I should be almost ready." Li daozong said.
"Well, thank you so much for your trouble. Then, everyone, please!" Li Chengqian led the way in and looked around. It was quite novel.
"This is the first time that I've come to Jingxiang. I feel really good. It's not as grand and luxurious as Chang'an, but it's also exquisite and elegant. " Li Chengqian said, "it's not easy to leave Beijing for one time. This time, I have to stay longer and go back. Third brother, general Qin. You don't mind? "
"Welcome." Li Ke said with a smile, "brother Huang can spend more time in Xiangzhou. I'm just worried that I won't be able to fulfill my friendship with the local people. If I don't receive you well, I hope you'll see Haihan. "
"A family, how to talk about two families?" Li Chengqian said with a smile, "brother. Hands and feet. The left hand won't be polite to the right hand, so the right hand doesn't have to be too polite! "
"What the prince said is true." Li daozong took the words and said, "brothers are of one mind, and their interests will break gold. Our great family business needs the prince and many brothers to work together to prosper. "
They had a good conversation and went into the main hall to sit down. The prince takes the lead. Li Ke and Li daozong were divided into two groups, and other civil and military officials, such as Qin mubai and Xiao Yu, also offered seats one after another. After tea and elegant music, the people who had traveled more than 20 miles had a rest and were ready to start later.
Qin mubai sat on the seat and slowly tasted the inscription. He said in his heart: look at Li Chengqian's decent and natural words. But it's not as frivolous as the outside world hearsay. Moreover, his brotherhood with Li Ke seems to be quite good. It's just that Li you, the king of Qi, didn't fart all the way. When several members of the royal family chatted with each other, he didn't interrupt. It seemed that he didn't like the prince very much.
They sat down and talked. Just at this time, there was a sound of cars and horses in the courtyard. A woman yelled: "brother Prince, we are coming!"
Who dares to break into Prince Xingyuan without permission and yell?
All of them looked out curiously and were happy. It turned out that it was Princess Gaoyang. She is getting out of the car, waiting for another woman to land.
Li Chengqian laughed and said, "general Qin, don't you go to meet him soon?"
"Eh, me?" Qin mubai was stunned.
"Of course it's you. Do you want me to go on your behalf?" Li daozong also joked.
"All right!" Qin mubai got up awkwardly with a smile, gave the prince a gift and walked out.
Princess Gaoyang is pulling Wu Meiniang to rush in. Qin mubai greets her, and bows with her fist: "the last general Qin mubai. With the royal highness of Prince Edward, come and greet your royal highness! ""Hee hee Princess Gaoyang was immediately happy. She coughed twice. She cut her little hands on her back and said, "excuse me, general Qin! This is Wu Meiniang of Chang'an, a close friend of our palace. You can't neglect or bully! Otherwise, I I'll spank you! "
"Ha ha!" The room burst into laughter.
Wu Mei Niang was also amused. He laughed and said, "Your Highness, you are so majestic. You see, general Qin, his face is scared green by you. "
Qin mubai shook his head and wry smile helplessly: "I will remember the princess's admonition. Ladies and gentlemen, please come in
"Hee hee! That's great Princess Gaoyang Snickers twice and pulls Wu Meiniang to walk in.
Li Chengqian sat in the upper position and laughed happily for a long time. He said to all the people, "gentlemen, I'd like to introduce you. Your Highness Princess, you must know all of you, and the other is a great reputation of Changan's Wu Mei Niang.
Speaking of this, Li Chengqian gave a pause and said, "well, she is not only the best friend of Princess Gaoyang, but also the best friend of the princess."
"Disrespect, disrespect!"
Xiangzhou civil and military officials present were immediately moved. Originally, the name of Wu Meiniang in Chang'an was not unfamiliar to them. First, Qin Xian liquor was famous all over the world, and the name of the No.1 liquor in Chang'an (Qin Xian Pavilion) was also famous all over the world. In addition, she once lived with her father as an official in Xiangzhou, and was Qin mubai's fiancee and famous beauty. Therefore, her name can be described as "like thunder through the ears".
But they didn't expect that Wu Meiniang would have such a good friendship with Princess Gaoyang, and she would still be the best friend of the crown princess. So it seems that Qin mubai's "relationship" in Chang'an is deeper than ordinary!
On the other hand, Qin mubai and Li Ke give each other a look, but they are thinking about something else - Prince, this is undoubtedly openly close to Qin mubai!
