Xue Bai felt that after such a change, Li Longji would definitely like this story, and he used the maidservant to marry on his behalf to show that Princess Shou and Yang Taizhen were not the same person.

But the two little girls in front of him were stunned.

"This little girl has no talent...how could she know this..."

"Junior sister, wait for me."

They ran away in a hurry.

Xue Bai sighed helplessly and turned around to see Yan Yan sitting on the swing with an expression on her face as if she was watching a show.

"Brother scared people away."

"No."

"Ji Lanzi calls you husband." Yan Yan added, "I am brother's husband, so wouldn't that mean I am her ancestor?"

"Stop talking nonsense."

Yan Yanzhen stopped talking nonsense, stood up, performed the Wanfu obediently, and said: "Brother, Master Qixuan said that I have learned his breathing and breathing method, and I should learn Tai Chi from my brother in the future, please."

Brother, please give me some advice."

Xue Bai didn't dare to tease her, but the two looked at each other and laughed at the same time due to tacit understanding.

Because I thought of what they often say.

"There is neither long nor short. Where the Tao exists, the teacher exists."

~~

After the Hungry Ghost Festival, the days of living in Zhongnan Mountain are over.

On the way back, Xue Bai followed the sage's motorcade.

He drove his horse beside Yan Yan's carriage and acted honestly all the way.

Although Yan Yan's illness could not be cured during this trip, fortunately, she was treated by a famous doctor and her condition was stabilized; he also taught Li Jilan how to write plays.

He learned about the old affairs of the palace from Princess Tang Chang and established his ambition; formed a temporary alliance with Prince Qing; turned enemies into friends with Princess Xianyi and his wife; and enhanced the favor of the saint and the noble concubine with several poems.

He also had initial contact with Princess Ning's consort and King Guangping.

From the situation point of view, if Princess Xianyi, who loves to show off, is brought over, the Right Prime Minister's Mansion and the East Palace will not be able to use their swords to kill people for the time being, and they are unwilling to deal with her personally, so they will surely be able to gain temporary stability.

Moreover, the misfortune is diverted to the east, and there are many places that cause trouble to the East Palace and the Right Prime Minister's Office.

Of course, the main reason why it went so smoothly was that he had the advantage of the location in Zhongnan Mountain. Li Heng and Li Linfu were busy with serious business in Chang'an City and had no time to talk to him.

But I still have to go back to Chang'an after all, and things won't go so smoothly in the future...

Thinking of these, Xue Bai looked up and saw the magnificent Mingde Gate gradually appearing in front of his eyes, and his mood was inexplicably surging.

Although Chang'an City was more dangerous, it did not scare him.

~~

It's late July, the New Year's Examination is approaching, and Anlu Mountain is approaching.

And what happened in Tower View also began to have an impact on Chang'an City.

~~

Princess Ningqin opened the curtain and glanced back, just in time to see Xue Bai following Princess Yuzhen's carriage.

Looking back at the car, her old but handsome husband Zhang Bian was closing his eyes to relax and take some time off.

"You have done good things, but if that boy named Xue causes big trouble one day, I will see if you will be implicated."

"Then just tell the truth." Zhang Bian said: "I can't refuse the old friend's entrustment."

"You are always so weak-tempered!" Princess Ningqin was dissatisfied and said, "Who entrusted you with this? It's because you can't forget that rebellious girl."

"As I told you, Secretary He made a request when he returned to his hometown after serving as official. Based on his friendship with my grandpa, it is impossible for me to refuse his request." Zhang Bian said: "Even if the saint learns about this, for the sake of Secretary He

For the sake of his face, he won’t blame me.”

"You are telling lies, can I believe you? He Zhizhang is the prince's teacher, how can you hide this from the prince?"

"I've said this enough times." Zhang Bian closed his eyes and said calmly: "If the princess doesn't believe me, just assume that my old love for Si Niang has not ended."

"Zhang Silang, you are too presumptuous!"

Zhang Bian smiled bitterly, not knowing whether he was too weak or too presumptuous.

Come to think of it, if you weren't weak, how could you live like this?

"Husband-in-law." After scolding Princess Ning, she softened her voice and said, "Husbands and wives shouldn't hide anything. Tell the truth. How much do you know about the forces behind him?"

"What kind of power does it have?" Zhang Bian sighed: "It's just such a small house. How much it costs every month. The princess has already found out clearly. What's the use of me saying more?"

We have argued about a topic countless times, and each time the result is like this, as if it has become a thorn in the side between the couple.

The depressing atmosphere continued until they arrived at Princess Ningqin's mansion, where a servant came forward to inform them.

"Prince-in-law, a guest has arrived and he claims to be delivering a gift for Fan Yang Jiedushi."

While talking, a long gift list was handed over.

Princess Ningqin was displeased when she saw it and said, "Don't accept this stupid gift!"

"He has received the grace of a saint, which is what a gentleman should have." Zhang Bian looked calm.

Princess Ningqin had no choice but to turn back to the backyard.

Zhang Bian was always like this, able to make good friends with everyone. For example, Li Bai was also his good friend and had repeatedly advised him not to associate with An Lushan. However, he was able to appease both sides.

He got off the carriage, straightened the sleeves of his robe, and walked forward to greet the guests. In the eyes of outsiders, he still looked like a carefree god.

Only he himself knows how much he has paid for Princess Shang in this life.

~~

"Why did Xue Bai refuse?"

In the Prince's Courtyard, Li Chu couldn't wait to tell Li Heng his thoughts as soon as he returned to Chang'an, and Li Heng agreed with it.

"If he marries Sanniang, his past grudges will be cleared and his future career will be guaranteed. Is he unwilling?"

Li Chu said: "He said that there is something unspeakable."

"Unspeakable secret?"

Li Heng suddenly thought of a secret rumor, his eyes changed, and his face immediately became a little ugly... Is Xue Bai because of Du Erniang?

He turned his back so that no one could notice his displeasure.

"It seems that Li Cong promised him greater benefits?" Li Chu asked.

"possible."

"Haier thinks that we should win over Xue Bai. He knows how to please saints, noble concubines, and General Gao." Li Chu said: "And we can get along well with the Yang family and the uncle. The Yang family and the boy are related by marriage, and the uncle only has

He promised to vindicate the case of three common people and promised rewards. Xue Bai is the key to winning them over."

"This guy doesn't want to, so what can I do?"

"How about I ask you to ask the saint for marriage directly?"

Li Heng was a little reluctant, but rationally knew that this was the best thing to do.

An Lushan is about to go to Beijing again. There is a serious conflict of interest between him and Pei Kuan, the two governors of Fanyang. By then, Li Linfu and An Lushan will definitely get rid of Pei Kuan.

This is the time to conquer the forces behind Xue Bai.

"I, the prince, may not be able to speak in front of a saint." Li Heng sighed.

Li Chu said: "As long as I talk to the saint, Sanniang will fall in love with Xue Bai, and the matter will naturally come true."

Li Heng nodded directly and murmured: "Sanniang is my favorite daughter, so I am taking advantage of him..."

The father and son could not talk for too long. Soon, a servant came to urge them.

Li Chu resigned, left the Prince's Courtyard, and returned to Baisun Courtyard.

He took two deep breaths and was about to go see Mrs. Cui when he suddenly remembered something and asked Cheng Yuanzhen to be recruited.

"Have you asked? Is she willing?"

"Your Majesty." Cheng Yuanzhen was a little embarrassed and said hesitantly: "She claims to be a female crown...I cannot enter Baisun Court to serve her."

"what for?"

Li Chu was surprised.

Cheng Yuanzhen hesitated for a moment and said, "Yinu, it seems that Ji Lanzi is in love with Xue Bai."

"ha."

Li Chu laughed at himself, waved his hand openly and said, "It doesn't matter."

It doesn't matter, he has arranged these two marriages perfectly, and everyone is happy.
