"Why, little Chang'an is very prosperous!" Lu Ke was riding on the horse. Looking at the salaryman next to him, the smile on his face became even thicker. He grew up in Chang'an, and as he grew older, he became more familiar with the world.

The more he did, the more Lu Zhaoci no longer locked him up in the palace. It was not unusual for the prince of the Tang Dynasty to often appear in the streets and alleys of Chang'an City. Of course, these prerequisites are under the condition of being guarded.

.

"Your Highness, such a beautiful scenery is only possible under His Majesty's governance." Wu Yan, the guard on one side, said with a smile. There was a hint of pride in his words. He pointed the riding whip in his hand at some Western businessmen walking by and said with a smile: "

Your Highness, these businessmen are very envious of the people of the Tang Dynasty now. These people all want to become our people of the Tang Dynasty! I heard that there are also Turks coming to Chang'an!"

"That's natural. There are wise monarchs in power today, and the ministers in the court are all capable people. Naturally, Haiyanheqing, the age of peace and prosperity." There was also a trace of yearning on Lu Ke's face. If he could be in charge of such an empire, it would be great too

It's not a waste of time to walk through this world.

"Your Highness, you see it's still early. Why don't you come out front to have some drinks?" The handsome Wu Yan glanced at the restaurants on the left and right, swallowed his mouth and said. His face was full of yearning, and he pointed to a restaurant in front of him.

What? The tall restaurant said: "Your Highness, look at the Qingyun Tower in front of you. I heard that the ministers or officials who come to Beijing will go there every time they come to Beijing to seek good luck!"

Qingyun Tower! Haha, but does it mean to rise to the top?" Lu Ke looked over and couldn't help but said with a smile: "If eating and drinking in this restaurant has this effect, then what kind of official department will the Tang Dynasty have to do? However,

, since it is so famous, I want to see it today. Come on, Wu Yan, lead the way."

"Good!" Wu Yan's face showed a look of joy. Although these guards are doing easy jobs in the capital, what are they? Guards often have no control over their own actions. It would be better if they followed a good master.

, if you follow a bad master, your life or death will not be in your hands. Wu Yan followed Lu Ke, which is considered good among the princes. Lu Ke has a majestic demeanor, but he is very good to his subordinates. He is worthy of being a knight king.

title.

"Your Highness, please dismount. Wu Yan jumped down from the restaurant, then turned around and helped Lu Ke off the horse. Lu Ke looked at the Qingyun Tower and nodded. The Qingyun Tower is simple and grand. Although it is in a busy city,

But it's not as splendid as other restaurants. Instead, it feels like returning to nature, giving people a fresh feeling.

"Let's go! After entering, Lu Ke waved his hand and walked towards the restaurant. As for the horses and other things he brought with him, naturally the waiter took them away.

"This young gentleman, please come up to the third floor. When everyone just walked into the restaurant, he saw a waiter coming up to him. Looking at everyone, he could tell at a glance that the little guy in the middle was the real owner. He also saw the accompanying person.

The guards were all strong-backed, and they concluded in their hearts that this handsome young gentleman was rich or noble, and not an ordinary master. They immediately opened their mouths and let everyone go to the third floor seats.

"Hey". Lu Ke was waiting on the seventh floor when he suddenly looked at a plaque in the middle of the lobby in surprise. He saw the words "Qingyun Straight Up." With four big characters, a smile suddenly appeared on the corner of his mouth. He pointed at the plaque and said with a smile: "

I didn't expect to see Mr. Cui's calligraphy here, but the boy was very surprised. No wonder this building is called Qingyun Building. No wonder the plaque dares to read "Qingyun Mountain." These four words are indeed quite similar.

It makes sense."

"What? Lang Jun, do you also recognize our master's handwriting?" The waiter in the shop looked at Lu Ke in surprise when he heard this. It would not be surprising if other officials who came to take the imperial examination or officials who came to Beijing to report on their work recognized Cui Renshi's handwriting.

But now a little boy can actually recognize the handwriting of the uncle of the then dynasty, which is surprising. So the waiter in the shop couldn't help but raise Lu Ke's identity to a higher level. Even a word of the previous one was discarded.

"Haha!" Lu Ke just shook his head, and did not answer the waiter's words. He just said: "My family has strict rules. You are not allowed to drink alcohol before you are under age. Just bring a pot of good tea and give them top-grade hero blood!"

"Yes, I don't dare to neglect the waiter. Not everyone can drink this high-grade hero blood. Just a small pot costs ten taels of gold! But after hearing this young man's tone, the waiter is confused.

Still dared to refuse, Xiao quickly welcomed Lu Ke and others into the third floor...

Although the third floor is a private room, it is actually covered with many exquisite screens, and there are many desks placed inside to prevent the literati from gathering here to recite poems and paint.

There are obstacles, so there is such a layout. However, standing on Qingyun Tower, you can see most of Chang'an City, and even the Suzaku Gate in the distance can be faintly seen. It is indeed a good place. The waiter in the shop will update

They chose a place by the window for Lu Ke and the others. From here, not only can they see the Suzaku Gate in the distance, but more importantly, they can watch the Orchid Orchid performance on the patio on the first floor. It is indeed a good place.

After a while, the waiter in the shop brought high-quality tea to Lu Ke and others, high-quality hero blood to Wu Yan and other guards, and some dishes to go with wine, and then he retreated.

"Niannujiao, Xizhou song, I will order Xizhou song."

"Niannujiao!"

At this time, suddenly there was a burst of shouting from the patio on the first floor. Lu Ke on the third floor couldn't help but frowned.

Fan's weeping is the orchids singing in the reading room. I heard that not only Hu Zhou and the brothel sisters from Guandong will also come here, but more importantly, young and beautiful ladies, hehe! Your Highness, forgive Wu Yan.

At this time, I realized that I had said the wrong thing. The person who was with me at this time was not my military friend, but the prince who was the current emperor. He was young. When I said these words at this time, it spread to the imperial officials.

In my ears, I am afraid that I can no longer be a bodyguard.

"Forget it, forget it," Lu Ke said with a smile: "Wu Yan, you are not old anymore. I don't know if you have someone you like. If you find one, I will officiate your marriage at that time."

"It would be a great blessing for the general to be married by the prince. Wu Yan's face was full of excitement when he heard this. He cupped his hands and said, "My father actually arranged a marriage for the general last year. It will be during the holiday.

The general will go back to get married. It's just in Luoyang. I'm afraid His Highness won't have time by then.

"Then I will give you a house and bring your parents and your little wife to Chang'an." Lu Ke said with a smile.

"Haha, it is said that a Nian Nujiao came out of Qingyun Tower. She is as beautiful as a flower. When I saw her today, she was really extraordinary. Haha." At this moment, a voice like a drake rang out, shaking the entire Qingyun Tower.

"Who is so presumptuous?" Lu Ke frowned and couldn't help but place the white porcelain cup in his hand on the table, making a soft sound.

Little lady, instead of leaning against the door and singing, why not follow me and live a life of fine clothes and fine food, wouldn't it be ten times better than here? At this time, the voice like a drake came over again.

"Let's see who he is. He's so brave. Doesn't he know where this fruit is? He actually came to the Cui family's restaurant to cause trouble. Lu Ke smiled instead of getting angry.

"Yes!" Wu Yan did not dare to neglect, and quickly opened the window. He glanced down and saw a skinny young man leading a dozen or so people. The domestic slave Xiaozheng was teasing with a beautiful woman on the stage. Then

The woman's face turned red with embarrassment, she was ashamed and angry, but she did not dare to get angry. On her side, there was a man dressed as a middle-aged businessman who was whispering something. Presumably, that beautiful woman was the little lady known as Nian Nujiao.

But Wu Yan could no longer know who the merchant was. But he did know who the skinny young man was.

"Returning to Your Highness, the general knows that person. He is Lu Xiaowu, the second son of Lord Lu Qingyun, the commander of the Jinyi Guards. Yan quickly turned around and said.

"It is said that Lu Qingyun was carrying his father's back and was domineering in Chang'an City. At first, Gu thought it was slander, but when he saw his son, he knew that his words were probably not groundless. Lu Ke also stood up and looked at the patio.

Lu Xiao's expression changed slightly, and he couldn't help but snorted coldly.

"Your Highness, when you look across the way, Wu Yan suddenly whispered in Lu Ke's ear. Lu Ke's heart moved when he heard the words. He followed the words and looked across the way, but he saw someone standing in the seat opposite.

The young man with a handsome face was holding a cup of tea in his slender right hand, and his expression was chic. It made people very fond of him. When the young man saw Lu Ke looking at him, a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, he arched his hand towards Lu Ke and said

Incredibly chic.

This Lu Ke was also a handsome and handsome man. When he saw such a handsome young man opposite him, who was similar in age to himself, he couldn't help but feel good about him. He also raised his hand to him.

"Your Highness, he comes from Turks and belongs to the Turkic royal family. Wu Yan suddenly said softly from the side...

"How do you know?" Lu Ke's expression changed and he couldn't help but asked curiously.

"The general just saw a faint totem on his left shoulder, which looked like a desert eagle. It was the symbol of the Turkic royal family, so the general said he was from the Turks.

"Wu Yan said cautiously.

"Turkic royal family?" Lu Ke asked: "Could it be that they are princes who reap profits? How brave they are. They actually came to Chang'an. Aren't they afraid of death? It's a pity that they are so handsome. Hum, don't worry about him for now. Anyway, he is

I can't run away. Go and drive that Lu Xiao out. It's really audacious. I don't care about a small commander of the imperial guards, let alone his second son. He is nothing more than an ant. Let him give it to me.

Xiao Wang, get out. From now on, Nian Nujiao, this king, will protect you and throw a token from his arms to Wu Yan.

"Yes, General Mo will do it now." Wu Yan did not dare to neglect. He quickly took the token and walked downstairs.

"Bang bang." After a moment, he heard the sound of the screen outside, and then Lu Ke heard a clear voice coming over.

"Yang Yun from Zhaojun came to ask for an audience with the young master.

"Please come in." Lu Ke's heart moved, his mind turned, and a handsome face suddenly appeared, and he smiled and said: "Young man, please come in."

"Haha, thank you, Mr. Lang. I saw that handsome young man walking in slowly.

"Down below".

"If the villain guessed correctly, the opposite person is the son of today's emperor, His Highness the King of Shu. I don't know if the villain guessed correctly. Yang Yun showed a smile on his face, like a hundred flowers blooming, which actually made people feel indescribable.

.

"Oh, it seems. How did you know?" Lu Ke's face changed, and he quietly glanced at the guards around him, only to see that those guards had been standing behind him, and they had obviously discovered that the other party was extraordinary.

"Among the emperors of Zhenguan today, only His Highness the King of Shu has a chivalrous heart. Only His Highness the King of Shu who is as old as Chuan Er said," Yang Yun seemed to be proposing to use the guards around his brother Lu Ke.

He sat down anxiously.

Sheng Ke's eyes moved as he looked at this Yang Yun. He saw that although the gown outside was covering it up, he could faintly see a desert eagle embroidered on the brocade garment underneath. If he guessed correctly, this person must be the grassland noble Ashi.

A member of that tribe. Judging from his situation, he is probably not a simple person.

"Look at Lang Junsheng who is so handsome and unrestrained. He looks extraordinary in the way he raises his hands and feet. But there is no fear on his face when he sees the king. Hehe, although Xiao Wang is only a prince of the Tang Dynasty, not the current crown prince,

But in the Tang Dynasty, not everyone has the magnanimity of the young master. If Xiao Wang guessed correctly, the young master is probably not from the Central Plains! Even the surname Yang is made up randomly." Lu Ke swept the guards around him.

One glance, and my heart suddenly felt at peace. I couldn't help but smile and said.

"It is said that His Royal Highness, King Shu of the Tang Dynasty, is intelligent and extraordinary. Today I saw that he is indeed extraordinary. He is worthy of being the bloodline of two generations of emperors and the darling of heaven. Yet he actually suspected my identity based on my slightest flaw." The man who called himself Yang Yun.

The young man was stunned when he heard this. But his face soon returned to a calm look, and he cupped his hands and said, "Actually, you and I are also cousins. I want to call you cousin!"

"Cousin?" Lu Ke stood up fiercely and looked at the young man in front of him in surprise. He pointed at the boy with his right hand, but he was speechless. He did not expect that at this time, someone actually said that he was his relative. And he was

The relationship between cousins ​​is not just for fun. This person's surname is Yang. Is he really some kind of relative of his mother? His surname is Yang? That means he is the clan of the former Sui Dynasty. But how much of the clan of the former Sui Dynasty is left?

"Yes, His Highness the Prince is my cousin." Yang Yun nodded and said, but there was nothing strange about him. Obviously, this matter was true.

"Then I don't know which clan of the former Sui Dynasty your father belongs to?" Lu Ke also calmed down at this time, and his face returned to its original look, but there was nothing strange about the suspicion in his eyes.

"Down here..."

"Your Highness, Your Majesty, the master invites you." At this time, the screen turned and Wu Yan walked in cautiously. Seeing Yang Yun inside, he quickly changed his words.

"Your Highness, Your Majesty asked the old slave to come and invite His Highness and this young master to go." At this time, behind Wu Yan, a figure appeared, it was Qin Jiudao.

"Oh!" Lu Ke looked at the young man in front of him curiously. This young man who claimed to be a relative of the royal family could actually let his father invite him. Could it be that this person was really his cousin? For a moment, he wondered why.
To be continued...
