Settled in the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 350

The carriage came to a complete stop, and with the sound, people jumped out of the carriage, it was the prince who built it!

Xue Lang patted Changjian and Wanfu who were standing in front of him, called Shangjiang Lin together, and saluted the prince: "I pay homage to His Royal Highness the prince!"

The crown prince hadn't told the two of them to excuse themselves, another sound of horseshoes came from far and near, and everyone looked up at the direction of the sound of horseshoes, only to see a woman wearing a dark purple skirt riding a horse, galloping away. Come, followed by a group of neatly formed troops, all on horseback.

It's Princess Pingyang!
Princess Pingyang pulled the rein and reined in the horse. The horse under her crotch snorted excitedly and circled around twice before stopping. Greetings to the prince."

The prince smiled helplessly: "Why did sister bring the guards?"

Princess Pingyang said indifferently: "Youyang, as an official of the imperial court, will endanger his personal safety if he walks in the city. Although I am a princess, I am afraid that I may not be safe. It is better to bring some guards for safety."

The corner of the prince's mouth twitched, and he glanced at King Qi with reproach in his eyes. King Qi gritted his teeth and said angrily: "Sister, when will I let my princess back? The children in the mansion can't find their mother, they are all messed up!"

Princess Pingyang didn't even lift her eyelids, she said calmly: "What's so difficult about this matter! Just send the child to my house together!"

As he spoke, he walked straight up to Xue Lang, raised his eyes and looked over him, as if to confirm whether he was really safe and sound.Xue Lang and Jiang Lin cupped their hands together: "Your Highness!"

Princess Pingyang nodded, and when she saw the horse lying on the ground and couldn't get up, she looked at Jiang Lin without thinking, and asked, "Is this written by Ah Lin?"

Jiang Lindao: "Return to Your Highness, yes, I was too anxious just now, the horse ran too fast, and it was too late to rein in the horse, so I had to use brute force to injure it, I am ashamed."

Princess Pingyang said: "You know kindness and righteousness, and you protect Youyang with the strength of one person. In terms of meritorious service, how can you say that you are ashamed? A few days ago, the saint gave me a big drawing horse. I will let someone lead it tomorrow. Come with you."

Jiang Lin was taken aback for a moment, and then quickly said: "It is my responsibility to protect the safety of my brother, and I should not accept the reward."

Princess Pingyang said: "This is not a reward, but a thank you. I gave it to you, and you take it."

Jiang Lin looked at Xue Lang, then at Princess Pingyang, and then replied: "Here."

Princess Pingyang nodded in satisfaction: "Very good!"

Seeing this, the prince glared at King Qi angrily, King Qi lowered his head resentfully, and the prince said angrily: "You haven't apologized to Youyang yet, please forgive you for being reckless today!"

Is this a plan to turn a big event into a small one?

Xue Lang didn't speak, just looked at the prince and King Qi, watching the performance of the two brothers.Seeing the reluctance on King Qi's face, but under the gaze of the crown prince, he had no choice but to speak: "Yuan Ji was reckless and offended Mr. Xue. I ask Mr. Xue to look on my sister's face and forgive me."

Before Xue Lang could speak, Princess Pingyang had already interjected: "Youyang naturally wants to give me my face, but you used my face to oppress others and asked me if I did?"

King Qi suffocated and became angry: "Sister!"

Princess Pingyang said solemnly: "My mother left early, Aye was busy with affairs, and neglected to discipline you, and my elder brother spoiled and indulged you, so that you have grown into what you are today. No matter, since Aye and elder brother are both busy, let me It's good to take care of it! Let's start with your arrogant and willful bad habit of beating the princess!"

"Sister!"

"Sister!"

The voices of the crown prince and King Qi sounded at the same time, the prince was shocked, and King Qi was furious.The crown prince turned his head and looked at King Qi in disbelief: "You hit Yang Shi?"

King Qi froze, pouted his neck and said: "Brother, it's that lowly servant girl who is angry! I just pushed her lightly, but didn't hit her. Who knew she was so weak, she fell to the ground and pretended to be dead, hurting her." I was scolded by sister!"

The prince's complexion changed, but he suppressed his anger and said to Princess Xue Lang and Pingyang: "Sister, Youyang, I will let Yuan Ji explain to you two about today's matter. That's all for today, and everything will wait." Can we talk about it in the future?"

The crown prince is the prince of a country, and he has spoken for the king of Qi like this. Naturally, Xue Lang and Princess Pingyang can only give up for the time being.Princess Pingyang said earnestly: "Brother, my younger sister asked Mrs. Yang that this is not the first time that Yuan Ji has done something like this. No matter when, where, and in front of anyone, Yuan Ji will do it when his temper comes up. Besides, on weekdays at home, even in front of the children, he would do whatever he wanted, never showing face to Mrs. Yang, is this what a man would do? The younger sister begs the elder brother to take it seriously. I can hear a thing or two."

The prince nodded with a serious face, glared at King Qi, rather hated that iron could not be made into steel, dismissed the people brought by King Qi with a stern face, and directly carried King Qi back to the East Palace.

After the crown prince took King Qi away, Princess Pingyang looked at Xue Lang and Jiang Lin, and said, "A Lin will be transferred soon, I think your two brothers should have something to say, and you should go back and talk first. Let's see what happened today. How does the saint deal with it."

After finishing speaking, he waved to Xue Lang, and when Xue Lang approached, he whispered in a volume that only two people could hear: "Wait for me back home!"

Xue Lang nodded.Princess Pingyang got on her horse, just like when she came, she left with her guards in a stately manner.Such a demeanor, throughout the ages, throughout the Tang Dynasty, there is only one person!

"Brother, the princess has gone far, so turn around!"

Xue Lang was looking fascinated, Jiang Lin teased.Xue Lang couldn't help blushing, coughed, looked away, looked at Jiang Lin, and asked, "Why are you here suddenly?"

Jiang Lindao: "Received the edict of the sage's transfer, I wanted to discuss it with my eldest brother. I couldn't wait for my eldest brother to dismiss, so I came here first. Fortunately, I came first, otherwise if my eldest brother is taken away by King Qi...the consequences will be unpredictable!"

Xue Lang laughed, and said confidently: "What's unexpected? To me, I'm just being unyielding and fighting for reason. But, because I'm the princess' brother, I'll be extra tolerant."

Jiang Lin also laughed, with an understanding smile, and said, "Brother understands what brother is thinking! Brother, how about we walk the distance before we get home?"

Xue Lang agreed, "Okay."

The horse injured by Jiang Lin just now was taken away by Princess Pingyang, Xue Lang abandoned the carriage, and the two brothers walked back.Jiang Lin looked into the distance, with a thoughtful expression, and said, "Because of the urgent military situation, the sage only gave five days to prepare. After five days, my younger brother will go to Qizhou to take up his post. I will go alone without any worries."

Jiang Lin's transfer was to prepare for a possible war in Tuyuhun, so it was naturally inconvenient to take his wife and children with him.Xue Lang said: "My brother and sister stay in Beijing, you can rest assured, I will ask the princess to pay more attention, and ask her to take care of one or two."

Jiang Lindao: "If you can get the princess to take care of you, everything will be fine. Besides, there is still one thing to trouble Your Highness."

"What's the matter?"

"My little brother is unfamiliar with people and affairs in Beijing. My Yue's family is weak in Beijing. I would like to ask the princess to find one or two experienced stable women and nanny who are good at taking care of pregnant women. Is it convenient?"

Jiang Lin was talking eagerly.Xue Lang was stunned for a moment, and immediately realized: "Is the younger brother and sister pregnant?"

Jiang Lin blushed and nodded, Xue Lang laughed happily, and patted Jiang Lin's shoulder vigorously: "Okay! Good boy, you are good at it! It turns out that you, the younger brother, will be the first father! Very good!"

With these words, Jiang Lin seemed to have become the simple and honest boy when he first met, smirking and stroking the back of his head.Xue Lang said with a smile: "I will personally ask the princess to help me with this matter, so don't worry! You are already a father, so you should be more cautious on the battlefield. It is often said that the brave are invincible, but What I want to tell you is that courage is like cowardice, and great wisdom is like foolishness. This is especially true on the battlefield! I don’t know anything about fighting, but think about my wife and children at home. I never advocate being fearless! Ah Lin, Come back alive!"

"Well! Big brother don't worry, little brother can save it."

The two talked all the way.Between men, naturally there is not much parting sentiment to complain about, and the two big men can't complain, except for family affairs, what Xue Lang talks about is more about Tuyuhun's situation from later generations.

A man's ambition is everywhere, Jiang Lin is a talent, he can't always be under his wing, a man should stand up on his own.Therefore, although Xue Lang was worried, he was unwilling to prevent Jiang Lin from going to the battlefield.Xue Lang, who is also a man, naturally understands the importance of a man in addition to his career, so naturally he cannot stop him.

The sign of a man's true maturity is that he can independently assume the responsibilities of career and family, regardless of age.If you really want to treat Jiang Lin well, you should support him to become independent.Xue Lang thought so, and did the same.
