Settled in the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 289 Untitled
This sound is...

Xue Lang couldn't be more shy, he turned around abruptly, and sure enough——

With beautiful eyebrows and beautiful eyes, a handsome figure, dressed in a pair of men's clothes, a black head covering a head of cloud-like hair, there is a smile in the cold and beautiful eyes in the past, the mask is lifted on the head, and she looks at Xue with a smile. Lang.

A big smile appeared on Xue Lang's face: "Dian..."

Someone interrupted him: "What is the hall? Do you know the strong woman?"

Well, it's fine if you don't want to be called out, but what the hell is a strong woman!

"Well, have you seen such a thin strong man?"

The visitor looked him up and down, and said with a smile: "Although he is tall, he is really thin, with clear eyebrows, he is a good young man!"

Xue Lang smiled and gave a thumbs up, jokingly said: "Your Excellency has good eyesight!"

The visitor smiled even more, and said with a smile: "Just kidding, wait, Youyang came to visit the Lantern Market alone?"

Xue Lang replied: "I came with A Lin and Heng Yu. A Lin took his wife to watch Baixi Opera, and Heng Yu went looking for delicious food. It's my first time to participate in the Lantern Festival of the Tang Dynasty. Walking alone. What about you?"

The visitor said: "I haven't visited Chang'an's Lantern Market for several years. I'm so quiet and want to move, so I came out to take a look. However, I didn't expect to see such a wonderful scene, and it can be called a pleasing sight."

Said, Xiumu looked at Xue Lang as if pointing.Xue Lang smiled wryly: "So, should I thank you for your compliment?"

The visitor turned his eyes and said, "It's not impossible."

"Okay, I lost!"

Xue Lang admits it!

The visitor couldn't help but smile again.The two walked around, and came to the humane: "Chang'an was called Daxing City in the previous dynasty. Every year during the Shangyuan Festival, the men and women in the city are just like Youyang today. The men dress up as women, and the women wear men's clothes, playing in the city. My Aye was the Duke of the state at the time, and every new year he would go to Beijing to meet the former emperor and congratulate him. He would return home after the Lantern Festival, and A Niang would accompany him. One year, A Niang brought me and Erlang, Dress up Erlang as a woman, and A Niang and I as men, and take us to celebrate the Lantern Festival in Daxing City. Many years have passed, but the scene of that day seems to be vivid in my memory."

The tone is quite nostalgic.

Xue Lang didn't interrupt, and listened quietly with a smile.The visitor stopped and looked up at the sky: "Today the moon and stars are rare, and it is very clear. This year should be a good year."

Xue Lang asked curiously: "Is there any meaning in it?"

"According to legend, if the moon and stars are sparse on the day of Shangyuan Festival, it indicates that this year will be a good year, and if the sky is cloudy and moonless, it will be a bad year."

Xue Lang said strangely: "It turns out that this is the way to say it. It should be just asking for a lip service and an omen!"

"Youyang don't believe it?"

Xue Lang answered firmly: "I don't believe it!"

The visitor was shocked by his categorical statement, looked at him for a while, and asked, "What do you believe in?"

"Heaven helps people who help themselves, and God helps people who do not help themselves! Your Highness, I never believe in fate!"

Xue Lang's words were powerful and powerful, and his eyes were full of seriousness.

The person who came was Princess Pingyang who came out to visit the Lantern Market. He couldn't help calling out his identity, and he didn't criticize him, but looked at him silently, speechless for a moment.

Xue Lang stared into Princess Pingyang's eyes seriously, and said solemnly: "There is no trace of fate. If everything is predestined by the heavens, then you probably don't need to do anything, just sit at home and wait. However, this is not the case in the world. , God rewards hard work, I always believe in this sentence! Even if things don’t go well sometimes, and the pay is not proportional to the return, it is still more rewarding than doing nothing. Your Highness, if I believe in the so-called fate, I will stand in front of you at this moment The current Xue Lang is not the Xue Lang of today, and His Highness is not the Highness of today!"

"Xue Lang, you..."

Princess Pingyang seemed to be shaking in her heart, unable to speak, her eyes seemed to be looking at Xue Lang, but in fact they had no focus, and her mind was restless.

Xue Lang looked at Princess Pingyang sincerely: "Your Highness, I am 26 years old this year, and I can be responsible for everything I do, so, Your Highness, please take a look at me?"

After finishing speaking, he looked eagerly at Princess Pingyang.

Princess Pingyang came back to her senses, but she didn't speak. Instead, she reached out and pulled Xue Lang's mask off, covering his face, revealing only a pair of eyes——

"Why are you crying?"

"I didn't cry! The lights in the Lantern City are too dazzling, it made me cry!"

"Fool!"

Princess Pingyang turned around and walked forward. Xue Lang pulled off the mask and wiped his face carelessly, then put the mask back on and followed quickly.

Princess Pingyang asked: "Does Youyang know what your current situation is?"

Xue Lang thought about it, and said: "It should be okay. With the title, when the saint returns to the court, there should be new appointments. Although it is not rising steadily, it should be considered steady!"

"That's not it!"

"Then what does His Highness ask?"

Princess Pingyang didn't answer, but asked: "Recently, there should be many people looking for Youyang to propose marriage to you, right?"

Xue Lang hurriedly said: "Your Highness, I didn't even agree, I didn't even hesitate, and as soon as I understood the meaning, I simply refused!"

Princess Pingyang suddenly stopped in her tracks. Although she didn't turn her head, her tone of voice couldn't hide her embarrassment: "Who asked you this!"

"Oh! Then what did His Highness ask?"

Xue Lang looked confused.

Princess Pingyang said: "Many men in my court get married at the age of sixteen or seventeen. There are very few people like Youyang who are 26 years old and still have no wife. At the age of Youyang, most of them have wives and children."

Xue Lang hurriedly said: "Your Highness, I think I am still young and strong, full of energy... Ouch!"

It was stepped on!
Xue Lang hurriedly shut up, he was clearly speaking the truth, if in modern times, he would still be the little fresh meat of his day, okay?If you are thick-skinned and shameless, you can still call yourself a teenager.However, Princess Pingyang, who is obviously from the Tang Dynasty, would not understand.

Princess Pingyang said nonchalantly: "At Youyang's age, if the marriage doesn't go well, I'm afraid it will be difficult to have a good marriage. Don't disappoint the good time, so...do you understand?"

As he said that, he turned his head and looked at Xue Lang. In his eyes, there was a deep meaning, like sadness or joy, complicated and difficult to understand.

Does this count as being rejected or something else? !
Xue Lang felt pain in his heart as if being cut by someone with a knife, and he couldn't help saying: "If you can do what you want, you'll be willing even if it's only for one day; if you can't, you'll feel lonely even if you have someone to accompany you every day."

Princess Pingyang looked at Xue Lang silently for a long time before she sighed quietly: "Fool! I don't want to talk to you anymore, go back!"

After finishing speaking, he waved his hand and left without looking back. Xue Lang was still waiting to catch up, but Princess Pingyang immediately stopped: "Stop! Don't follow!"

Xue Lang had no choice but to stop, looking eagerly at the back of the other party, not knowing what to say.

"Today is the Lantern Festival, Xue Lang, I wish you peace, joy, happiness and good health."

After speaking, he kept walking and left quickly.

Xue Lang opened his mouth, wanted to say something but couldn't, wanted to catch up but couldn't, stood there for a while, then murmured: "But without you, how can we be safe, happy and healthy!"

Suddenly losing interest in visiting the Lantern Market, Xue Lang sighed, and turned around to wait for Jiang Lin and Su Han at the appointed place. As soon as he got there, he saw a little old man looking at him with a smile——

"So, the Qing family can't live without someone?"
