Back to the prosperous Tang Dynasty to be the emperor

Chapter 75 Night Banquet (4)

Although it was not the emperor who arrived, the youngest of the Wu family did not dare to ignore it. After all, Brother Li Xian is not very old and has a big title. It is not a joke that the two princes came together. The joke is still light, once the two young brothers hold grudges, the fun will be great. Therefore, when they heard the news that Brother Li Xian was about to arrive, neither Wu Weiliang nor Wu Huaiyun dared to be negligent. Gathered the whole family, young and old, lined up at the gate of Gongjiayuanzi and waited eagerly. After a while, the banners at the far end of the avenue were fluttering, and a large group of people came windingly. However, the next scene stunned all the Wu family members—when the team arrived at a distance of only [-] steps from Gongjiayuanzi, they stopped halfway and did not move forward for a long time. Previous.

"Brother, what did you say, why didn't you move?"

Seeing the troops of the two princes stop halfway for no reason, all the Wu family members were at a loss, they couldn't figure out what happened, but seeing that Wu Weiliang didn't speak, although the Wu disciples had doubts in their hearts, they He didn't dare to talk or move, but Wu Huaiyun, who was carefree by nature, didn't have that concern. He tilted his head impatiently and let out a displeased voice.

"Wait!"

Don't look at Wu Weiliang's sullen face, which seems to be calm, but he is also muttering in his heart. He also doesn't know what the Li Xian brothers are doing, but as the head of the family, Wu Weiliang has to make something for his family. A role model can only be Qiang Zi who maintains his superficial composure. At this time, when Wu Huaiyun complained, his complexion instantly became ugly, and he replied coldly.

"Wait? I still have to wait. When will I be tall?"

Wu Huaiyun muttered unhappily, but when he saw Wu Weiliang's cold eyes swept over, Wu Huaiyun, who had always been afraid of his elder brother, didn't dare to be presumptuous any more, so he reluctantly closed his mouth, and turned his eyes to Wu Weiliang with a dark face. Overwhelmed the large group of people parked in the distance.

"Seventh brother, is this not good?"

Not to mention that the young and old of the Wu family waited eagerly, and Li Xian, who was sitting next to Li Xian, was a little impatient-it was Li Xian's idea to stop halfway. Although Li Xian didn't understand what he meant, he still He didn't refute Li Xian's face, but he didn't expect the pause to be so long. Filled with doubts, he had to open his mouth to ask questions.

"It's okay, the queen mother only said to let you and my brother come to stand in the front, but didn't explain all kinds of matters, since you and my brother can make up their own minds, there is still some time before the father arrives, so it's no big deal to wait. "Li Xian was in a hurry, but Li Xian was not in a hurry at all. He laughed, and replied slowly, in a leisurely manner. In Li Xian's view, the Gongjiayuanzi in front of him is a place of right and wrong. If Empress Wu really If you plan to do something tonight, once my brothers enter the garden early, they will be suspected of melon fields and plums. Although there may not be any serious entanglements, it may be inevitable to eat some food. To be on the safe side, it is natural It's better not to provoke each other, but Li Xian doesn't care about what everyone in the Wu family thinks - the thoughts of the dying people are very important, and besides, taking ten thousand steps back, even the Empress Wu I really didn't intend to do anything tonight, that's okay, the two martial artists on the left and right are people that Empress Wu deeply despises, and Li Xianzi is not afraid of offending them. , but the reason here is a long story, Li Xian is really too lazy to explain it.

"Seventh brother is really naughty, that's all, I'll just play around with you once as a brother." Seeing Li Xian so leisurely, Li Xian shook his head dumbfoundingly, but he didn't want to hurt the relationship between each other because of such trivial matters. Feelings, he simply didn't ask the reason, laughed and cursed, and let Li Xian make the decision.

"Wu Weiliang, Inspector of Shizhou (Wu Huaiyun, Inspector of Zizhou) welcomes His Royal Highness King Lu and King Zhou."

Li Xian can afford to wait, but the Wu family can't afford to wait. The time to see a stick of incense has passed, and the Li Xian brothers' troops have never moved, and they have never even sent someone to communicate. I couldn't wait any longer, so I had to come forward and call out my name loudly to ask for an audience.

"Ha, Sixth Brother, people are here, why don't you go down and meet with me, don't let people say that our brothers are arrogant, that would be bad." Hearing the fame of the Wu family brothers, Li Xian couldn't help laughing , jokingly said.

"You, what a nonsense!" Hearing that Li Xian said so nonchalantly, Li Xian really didn't know what to say. He laughed and cursed, but he didn't refute Li Xian's proposal. The little eunuch waiting beside the carriage rolled up the curtain, Li Xian bent down, and stepped out of the carriage steadily first. Seeing this, Li Xian shrugged his shoulders indifferently, and followed behind him with a smile on his face.

"The next official, Wu Weiliang (Wu Huaiyun), has seen His Royal Highness King Lu and His Royal Highness King Zhou."

Although the two Wu Weiliang brothers were full of puzzlement and dissatisfaction, but in front of the two princes, there was no room for them to be presumptuous. Seeing the Li Xian brothers getting off the carriage one after the other, they rushed to greet the general. In the past, bow respectfully and salute to say hello.

"The two uncles are being too polite, so let's not be polite."

Although they are relatives of nephews and uncles, they have never met each other. In fact, Li Xian only met these two a few times during these years when he was enshrining Chan Taishan. Besides, because of Empress Wu, Li Xian lacked affection for all members of the Wu family. Seeing his two cousins ​​salute him now, Li Xian really didn't feel anything special, but On such occasions, it is necessary to have some politeness, so he pretended to be amiable, raised his hand falsely, and said politely.

"Thank you for your love, Your Highness, your Highness, it's cold and windy here, please let your Highness enter the garden to rest for a while, how about allowing the official to show his kindness to the landlord?" Wu Weiliang didn't dare to ask Brother Li Xian why he stopped at the park. In the middle of the road, I can only test a sentence with a smile on my face.

"Uncle, you're being polite. Father will be here in a short time. It's inconvenient to come in and out. It's not good if the emperor loses his dignity. Why don't you just wait here?" Wu Weiliang didn't wait when he finished speaking Li Xian said something, Li Xian had already interjected and declined Wu Weiliang's invitation.

"This……"

Li Xian’s reason sounds plausible, but it’s not the case—this place is still some distance away from Gongjiayuanzi, so there’s no reason to greet him halfway. Wu Weiliang couldn't help being a little annoyed at the face of the Wu family brothers, but he didn't dare to attack in person, his eyelids twitched a few times, and he turned his eyes to Li Xian helplessly.

"Well, the seventh brother is right, so let's do it like this."

Although Li Xian didn't know why Li Xian said this, he knew that his younger brother had always been very resourceful, and there must be some deep meaning in his actions. Besides, Li Xian had to give face, and Li Xian couldn't refute it in public. After Li Xian's words, he could only affirm with a smile.

"Your Highness, I'm afraid this is inappropriate. This place is still far away from the garden. How can we do the job of taking over? What if the Holy One blames you?" Wu Huaiyun has always had a bad temper. He was full of anger, and now that the two princes had come up with such a bad idea, they couldn't take it anymore, and objected thickly with a blushing neck.

"If the two cousins ​​think it's too far away, please pick them up at the garden. Xiao Wang doesn't mind." Regarding Wu Huaiyun's dissatisfaction, Li Xian didn't take it seriously at all, and replied with a smile , He never gave him any kindness at all.

"How can it be..." Wu Huaiyun has a hot temper, and when Li Xian hit him like this, he immediately became angry, no matter how high or low the status of each other was, just opening his mouth, he was about to get angry.

"Second brother, don't be presumptuous!" Seeing that the situation was wrong, Wu Weiliang dared to let Wu Huaiyun be so presumptuous. He hurriedly scolded, stopped Wu Huaiyun's words, and then didn't care how ugly Wu Huaiyun's face was. Seeing Li Xian and his brothers bowed deeply, they accompanied him apologetically and said: "My younger brother is irritable, but he has no bad intentions. If there is any offense, please ask your Highness Haihan to take it."

"You don't have to be like this, it's all for important matters. It's normal to have different opinions. You don't need to take it to heart. In Xiao Wang's opinion, since the two cousins ​​think that they should meet you at the garden, there is nothing wrong with it." How about just asking me?" After Li Xian finished being a villain, he immediately pretended to be a good guy, but after all, he just refused to take a step closer to Gong Jiayuanzi, until the Wu family brothers frowned.

"Since Your Highness insists on this, I just have to obey my orders. However, it will be possible to allow my Highness to accompany the two Highnesses here?" Seeing Li Xian's insistence, Wu Weiliang had no other choice. , had no choice but to back down a step, and asked very tactfully.

"It's so good, there will be Uncle Lao Biao."

Li Xian looked at Li Xian, saw that Li Xian nodded his head unobtrusively, stopped talking nonsense, nodded with a smile and agreed, Wu Weiliang could only whisper a few words to Wu Huaiyun when he saw this, and asked him to turn around the gate of the garden Presiding over the overall situation, he himself stayed with the Li Xian brothers, laughing and having fun with them, and thus, a strange and strange scene appeared-the good-looking welcome scene was actually divided into two unconnected parts No matter how you look at it, it looks like two groups of irrelevant people have come together, and they are completely doing their own thing.

"His Majesty is here!"

"His Majesty is here!"

The crowd did not wait for a long time. Not long after, a few young eunuchs came galloping from a distance, and drove on the road with one after another. Immediately, countless officers and soldiers of the Habayashi Army guarded a golden chrome chariot and several vehicles. The luxury carriage drove slowly along the avenue towards Gongyuanzi, and Gaozong, Empress Wu and others arrived!
