Great Tang princess

Chapter 113
In a blink of an eye, it was the Lantern Festival on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month.

In this city with a curfew, this day is what all the people are looking forward to.

As soon as you wake up in the morning, you start to put up lights and festoons, looking forward to the arrival of night.

This day is also a Taoist festival, so after practicing yoga in the morning, Li Yuechen put on a Taoist robe and went to chant scriptures.

After reading the scriptures, it is almost time for lunch.

Because of the proximity, Li Yuechen didn't even take off his Taoist robe, so he stopped by the Hall of Renshou, intending to see what his parents were going to eat.

As soon as I came in, I saw several dishes on the table, and the fragrant smell permeated the palace.

However, only mother Wu Zetian was eating alone, while father Li Zhi was lying on the rocking chair with his eyes closed and pretended to be dead.

Even if Li Yuechen came in, he just opened his closed eyes and took a look, and then continued to lie down.

If it wasn't for the health ball in his hand that was still spinning, I'm afraid he wouldn't know if he was still alive.

Curious, Li Yuechen came to his mother and asked in a low voice, "Why does Grandpa look like this?"

"It is said that it is Shangyuan Festival today, I want to take you out of the palace in micro-clothes, I don't agree. So it looks like this." Wu Zetian explained with a blank expression while eating.

Listening to his mother's explanation, Li Yuechen couldn't help but shook his head, and gently came to Li Zhi's side: "Grandpa, don't be angry, get up and eat."

"Don't eat, I have no appetite!" Li Zhi turned his head directly.

Seeing his appearance, Li Yuechen couldn't help laughing, this couple is really interesting, people who are almost buried can still make such awkward things.

"Okay, grandpa, hurry up and have dinner, and I'll persuade you, grandma."

While talking, Li Yuechen grabbed his arm and pulled him up.

Li Zhi, who originally wanted to cooperate, suddenly thought of his daughter's natural supernatural power, so he completely relaxed his body, wanting to see if she could pull himself up.

Of course Li Yuechen also felt it, smiled helplessly, didn't care about anything, directly grabbed his arm with both hands, and pulled his upper body up very easily.

Feeling the power coming from his daughter's hand, Li Zhi suddenly grinned: "Unexpectedly, I have a physical illness, but my daughter is born with supernatural power."

"Grandpa's wisdom and Auntie's good body are combined in this child!" Li Yuechen laughed.

Wu Zetian, who was sitting at the table, turned her head: "Chen'er means, is it because I have no wisdom?"

"How is it possible? A Niang is a strange woman who combines wisdom, beauty and talent!" Li Yuechen replied.

"Hmph, your flattery skills are getting better and better!"

Although she said so, the upturned corners of her mouth still betrayed the secret joy in her heart.

Li Yuechen knows very well that women like to talk kindly, even if she knows that you are trying to make her happy.

Li Zhi smiled and sat down at the table, and Li Yuechen ran to Wu Zetian's side: "Mother, Grandpa's thinking is also normal. My child thinks that not only Grandpa should go out to have a look, but Grandpa should also go."

"Aren't you clear about our identities? What if there is danger in going out of the palace?" Wu Zetian taught with widened eyes.

Li Yuechen didn't know how to complain about this, it's true that you are the emperor and queen in the palace, but in this age without photos, who knows you when you leave the palace?

"My mother's words are wrong," Li Yuechen explained while sitting next to her, "My mother has lived in the deep palace for a long time, so she will always feel bored after a long time? Besides, on weekdays, you can only learn about folk affairs through reports. Why don't you take advantage of the opportunity and visit Weifu privately to see the prosperity of Tang Dynasty with your own eyes!"

Li Zhi next to him nodded: "Well, it makes sense!"

Wu Zetian turned her head abruptly: "Don't spoil her, childish slave! This is a big matter, how can you make a decision so easily?"

It's hard to say about other aspects, but in this kind of matter, as a wife, she really doesn't lack the courage to confront Li Zhi head-on.

Even on this kind of matter, Li Zhi would always be speechless by her.

Li Zhi also knew that he was wrong, raised his hand and scratched the beard around his mouth, turned his head and sulked and ignored her.

Li Yuechen leaned on his mother, with a flattering smile on his face: "Auntie disagrees, she must be worried about safety, but the Qianniuwei around Grandpa are not ordinary people, so there is no need to be afraid."

Wu Zetian turned her head: "Aren't you afraid? To put it simply! How do you explain your assassination last time?"

"It's not an assassination, it's a kidnapping." Li Yuechen corrected, "They dare not touch a single hair of the child, they just want to arrest the child to scare him and get the soap formula."

"Kidnapping...to put it lightly!"

"Besides, the boy is very skilled, so they didn't let them catch him, did he?" Li Yuechen said, "And after the last time, they definitely didn't dare to make a move again. So it must be very safe for parents to go out of the palace in disguise."

"...That won't work!" Wu Zetian continued to refuse, "If Yushitai finds out, I will definitely scold your brother bloody!"

After all, Li Zhi's health is not good. If they really want to scold him for being sick, they might really dare to cut people with a knife.

It is a trivial matter for the emperor to kill people, the key is to aggravate the condition of his own anger, otherwise he will be labeled as a fool.

Li Yuechen can only continue to grind: "Don't be afraid, if they dare to scold grandpa, the boy will take a few brothers to beat up their juniors! Besides, grandparents' private visits can be regarded as having fun with the people, even if it spreads." What a good story!"

Li Zhi next to him turned his head when he heard it: "Well, it makes sense!"

Wu Zetian frowned and did not speak. After a few seconds of silence, he was still a little worried: "Then what if..."

"Don't worry about it, it's fine." Li Yuechen interrupted in time, "This matter is also a temporary decision today, and it is impossible to leak it out. So no one will know that the two adults left the palace in disguise tonight."

Hearing what her daughter had said, Wu Zetian was a little moved.

Turning his head to see the look of expectation in Li Zhi's eyes, he finally nodded: "Then... let's go out and have a look."

"Alas--"

Li Yuechen raised his arms and cheered, then leaned his head and gave her a smack on the face: "Madam is mighty!"

Then he ran to Li Zhi and raised his hand.

Now Li Zhi naturally understands what this means, so he stretched out both hands to give his daughter a high five in celebration.

Afterwards, he directly waved his hand and called Zhang Chengxin in: "Go and tell Xian'er and the others to leave the palace with my clothes tonight, and come over in clothes at dusk!"

"Here!" Zhang Chengxin agreed, and immediately sent his close men to deliver the message.

"Chen'er is also going to call Shang Yiyang and Xuancheng, come over to have dinner first at dusk, and go out to play together in the palace at night!" Li Zhi announced.

Li Yuechen agreed: "Well, my son will go now."

Then he saluted and said goodbye directly.

He flipped out of the Hall of Renshou with a backflip, and walked towards the Hall of Anfu with a small jump.

Li Zhi in the hall finally started to eat big mouthfuls, and Wu Zetian next to him smiled and said, "I thought His Majesty could really resist eating today!"

"Okay, don't mock me anymore." Li Zhi smiled and brought her some food, "Come, eat fish."

Looking at the carp in the bowl, Wu Zetian also joked: "Emperor Tang, how can you take the lead in breaking the ban?"

"I have always felt that there is something wrong with this ban since I was a child. It was not allowed to eat mutton in the former Sui Dynasty, right?" Li Zhi complained, and then picked up a piece of fish and swallowed it.

Then he chewed and said, "One day I will abolish this prohibition! It's so delicious, how can I not eat it?"

Wu Zetian also nodded with a smile: "Yes, whether it's the braised fish or Chen'er, the styles are different, but the taste is top-grade."

……

As soon as Li Yuechen returned to Anfu Palace, Shangguan Wan'er trotted over: "Your Highness, how about going to roller skating again?"

"Haven't you already learned it?" Li Yuechen asked while taking off his shoes, "Just go and play by yourself."

"But, I want to learn His Highness's jump..." Shangguan Wan'er lowered her head and whispered.

Li Yuechen couldn't help raising his eyebrows: "Yo, I didn't expect you to be quite courageous... I'll teach you next time, I can't do it today, and I have to accompany Grandpa out of the palace in micro-clothes tonight."

"Okay then..." Shangguan Wan'er seemed a little disappointed, "Then I will ask His Highness for advice next time."

"Well, so good!" Li Yuechen patted her head, and at the same time told the two sisters what happened at night.

To be honest, this was the first time that such a thing had happened in micro-clothes. The two sisters seemed a little excited and asked Li Yuechen what kind of clothes would be better to wear.

In fact, Li Yuechen doesn't understand this at all, anyway, don't wear clothes that can show the royal status.

As for the rest, it's up to you, it doesn't matter if you wear silk and go out to pretend to be a dignitary.

However, women seem to be born very important to dress. In one afternoon, it took almost half an hour just to help the two sisters choose clothes.

But from Li Yuechen's point of view, the two of them are good-looking, and it doesn't really matter what they wear.

And those clothes didn't make much difference in her eyes, and she didn't know the meaning of picking and choosing.

After finally staying up until dusk, the three came to Renshou Hall to have dinner with Li Zhi and his wife.

Li Xian and other elder brothers also came over, all wearing silk clothes of the noble class, wrapped in a layer of animal skin cloak.

After saluting each other, Li Xian quietly walked over: "Yuechen, why did Grandpa want to leave the palace in micro-clothes today?"

The other two brothers also looked over curiously, and they had the same question.

"Maybe it's because of the boredom of living in the deep palace for a long time?" Li Yuechen smiled, "It's good to go out and have a look, it can relax your mind. Brothers can go out for a stroll when they are free on weekdays, but try not to reveal their identities!"

While chatting, they entered the Hall of Renshou, and Li Zhi and Wu Zetian were also ready.

Li Zhi took off his dragon robe and put on a black round-neck robe, while Wu Zetian put on a bright red skirt.

When going out, I put on an animal skin cloak, which is not only beautiful, but also not cold.

The only pity is that as a member of the royal family, you can't eat casually when you go outside, so you have to eat in the palace before going out.

After dinner, the group set off.

It is said that they are going out of the palace in micro-services, but in fact, this number of people is quite a lot.The couple plus six children already have eight people.

Zhang Chengxin must be by his side at all times, and there are nearly a hundred Qianniuwei in casual clothes around him.

Fortunately, after leaving the imperial city, more than half of the Qianniuwei were directly hidden in the crowd, so they would not be so conspicuous.

And Li Zhi and others were wearing expensive silk and jade belts around their waists, and ordinary people would stay away from them when they saw them.

The east is much brighter than usual tonight, and almost every household hangs tall lanterns with bamboo or wood.

The commercial square market also hangs various animal-shaped lanterns on high shelves, illuminating the streets like street lights.

There are already countless river lanterns floating on the water in Luoshui, and the flames dance from time to time along with the rhythm of the water flow.

It was much noisier outside than in the palace, bustling with people, even though the surrounding people tried their best to get out of the way, all kinds of blessings, noises, and bargaining were still heard.

Li Zhi and Wu Zetian, who were accustomed to being quiet, were suddenly in such an environment, and at first they felt a little uncomfortable.

But after getting used to it, a smile appeared on his face.

Li Zhi couldn't help nodding his head, feeling the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty under his rule.

Perhaps it was because he hadn't been out of the palace for a long time, Wu Zetian held his hand very uncomfortable, as if he was afraid that he would lose him.

Li Zhi also held her hand, and the two interlocked their fingers, walking forward slowly.

The people around often looked up in surprise, and then hurriedly lowered their heads to make way to the side.

At this moment, the people holding hands on the street are basically either sisters, or adults and children.

Husband and wife walk side by side at most, and there are almost no such people who walk hand in hand like this.

But when people gather together, there are many things that are afraid of someone taking the lead. If there is a leader, no matter what, there will always be someone to imitate.

A young couple behind Li Zhi and the others looked at each other, and the wife smiled, as if a little embarrassed.

The husband was more courageous, reaching out to hold his wife's hand in his, and also interlocking his fingers.

The walking speed of Li Zhi's family is not too fast, and although Li Xian and the others are curious about many things on the street, they dare not leave too far away, they just walk side by side and discuss these novel things among the people. .

A group of people wearing ghost masks in front bounced over, and when they saw the plainclothes Qianniuwei holding long knives in front, they also moved aside with a wink.

Li Yuechen glanced back inadvertently, and found that many couples had already held hands and were walking among the crowd.

People these days get married relatively early, and the wives are not too old.

Even though most of the women in the Tang Dynasty were manly in character, they still couldn't help blushing when they were being held by their husbands for a walk on the street, but there was a sweet smile on the corner of their mouths.

In the end, Li Xian and Li Lun couldn't bear the temptation of new gadgets, so they ran to the side of the road to buy two masks, put them on the sides of their heads, and turned around to show off to Li Yuechen.

Li Yuechen turned his head directly: "The two elder brothers are laughing at their parents!"

"cough!"

Li Xian was choked and didn't catch his breath: "Yue Chen is going to talk nonsense, I'm obviously asking if you want it, so I'll buy one for you too!"

"Oh? Is that so?" Li Yuechen puffed his cheeks and thought for a while, "It seems that I misunderstood brother!"

Li Zhi grinned from behind, and Wu Zetian also raised his hand to cover his mouth and smiled softly.
