The princess mansion is indeed very deserted.
Speaking of which, the population of the mansion is actually not small, but the Princess's Mansion is too big. It requires at least a thousand people to fill the entire place. There are not many mansions like this in Chang'an City.
The princess's retinue was more numerous than others, and they were in the mansion, but they could not be seen.
In addition, there are a few servants to serve the princess in the mansion, and most of them are people given by the palace. Princess Li Xiuning of Pingyang is the only mistress in the mansion and does not need many people to serve her, so she rarely goes outside.
Recruit people into the house.
Therefore, the Princess Mansion has always been a rather mysterious and quiet place for outsiders. When Fang Xuanling came in for the first time, in addition to feeling that the rumors outside were true, she also felt quite regretful in her heart.
With Princess Pingyang's talents, she can be called a strange woman in the world, but she lives in such a seclusion in the palace, which is really regrettable, especially her entanglement with Li Ding'an from Jin Dynasty, which will become a good story in the future...
The main hall of the Princess Mansion is very large. It can be seen that it must have been repaired in the past year or two. There are traces of it in many places because a very tasteful hostess lived here.
Therefore, there is a little more woman's unique delicacy and elegance here, and many flowers, plants and trees are planted around it, surrounding this meeting hall. As long as you approach here, what you see with your eyes and smell with your nose is fresh and fragrant, and
The solemnity and solemnity of other mansions in Chang'an City are completely different.
But after all, many dignitaries from Chang'an have lived here before and received many dignitaries from Chang'an. Their aura seems to have always remained here and has never completely dissipated. The tall gates and thick bricks and tiles all seem to tell stories of power.
Before she could taste it carefully, Fang Xuanling bowed in front of the hall and saluted, "Xuanling, see Her Royal Highness the Princess."
Princess Li Xiuning of Pingyang sat leisurely on the couch, her black hair spread over her shoulders, only slightly decorated with a silver hoop on her forehead, and a dark green palace dress covering up her slender figure.
Holding a book in her hand, she seemed to have blended into the surrounding environment as she watched quietly. She was quiet and leisurely, but so solemn that people dared not look directly at her.
Hearing the voice, he frowned slightly, reluctantly closed the book and threw it on the table. Then he looked up and saw an inexplicable light flashing between the opening and closing of a pair of slender red phoenix eyes.
As he waved his hand, a servant appeared and offered him tea.
"No need to be polite, just sit down and talk."
Fang Xuanling bowed again, then stood up straight, adjusted his clothes, took off his boots, and then stepped into the main hall.
If Li Po saw this situation, he would definitely murmur, being hypocritical, but he was also very helpless. With his shallow foundation, he would not even think about competing with the Kansai clan on such a matter in a short time, because the result would undoubtedly be
It made him very frustrated.
Fang Xuanling sat down without squinting. He looked calm, but in fact, he felt a little nervous and restrained in his heart. He couldn't help it, the person he was facing was too special.
Princess Li Xiuning of Pingyang was not only a noble princess, but also a general who established her own family. Counting ancient and modern times, there is no such woman like her.
If you have to draw an analogy, Sun Shangxiang, the sister of Sun Quan of the Eastern Wu Dynasty in the late Han Dynasty, is slightly similar. Mrs. Sun married Liu Bei, one of the princes in the late Han Dynasty...
Well, Fang Xuanling took a sip of fragrant tea in silence and stopped thinking. What he wanted to think about now was how to talk to the princess, rather than letting his curiosity take over.
But it was Li Xiuning who spoke first, "The King of Qin has returned. I heard he is seriously ill?"
Just as Fang Xuanling was about to speak, the other person continued: "Well, I may have been overly worried, otherwise why would I have gone straight to the palace to see the emperor? The emperor is not knowledgeable in medicine, how can he still have a magical rejuvenation?"
Having said this, Li Xiuning laughed and then gave a heavy blow, "Unless it's a mental illness..."
His words were sharp from the beginning, and there was a hint of schadenfreude in his words. Ren Fangxuanling was already mentally prepared, but he did not expect that such a princess would meet him.
He had never had any dealings with Princess Pingyang, and all his knowledge of the princess was based on rumors. What made him, and even most people, misunderstood was that Princess Pingyang let go and retreated after making great achievements.
Therefore, people imagine that Princess Pingyang should be a heroine who cares about the world and is upright. In the hearts of scholars like Fang Xuanling, I am afraid that she will automatically add a layer of pink halo.
This is a common problem among most men, and it is even more serious these days, so when they really come into contact with Pingyang Princess Li Xiuning, you can imagine the feeling of disparity.
At this moment, all the regrets and other regrets before were forgotten by Fang Xuanling. She raised her head and looked straight into the room. Fang Xuanling said in a deep voice: "Your Highness, please be careful. After all, His Highness King Qin..."
"Okay." Li Xiuning curled her lips impatiently, looking very similar to Li Yuanji, "You are not with King Qin to make suggestions at this time, but you come to my house to pay respects. You can tell me what happened."
Fang Xuanling almost choked and vomited blood. He couldn't explain why a scholar encountered soldiers. Now he encountered not only a general who had seen blood when leading troops, but also a princess, so the difficulty would be doubled.
But having said that, since Li Shimin asked Fang Xuanling to come to Princess Pingyang's mansion, it is not unreasonable. Others may not be able to do well in front of his sister. That is to say, Fang Xuanling has a stronger heart, even if he can't get things done.
, and will not offend anyone.
Just like now, if it were Du Ruhui, things would definitely be bad, but Fang Xuanling could still sit there calmly and continue to talk well.
"Your Highness is serious. King Qin sent Xuan Ling to pay homage to His Highness. He had no other intentions. There has been chaos in the court recently and everyone is attacking each other. King Qin was afraid of causing trouble again. When he was away, he was very concerned about His Highness the Princess. Now that he has returned,
So I sent Xuanling to say hello."
"Furthermore, King Qin learned some time ago that Li Ding'an has become king..."
Li Xiuning interrupted him again, "What does this have to do with me? King Qin thought that if I were to leave again, maybe Li Ding'an would be able to reduce his title to the king?"
Fang Xuanling smiled bitterly and said: "How could this be so? His Highness the King of Qin only thought that Li Ding'an's foundation was gradually solidified and his power was difficult to suppress. It would be useless for both families to fight with him again. It would be better if the two families could restore their old friendship.
We are all living in troubled times... But given the current situation, if the King of Qin makes suggestions to the Supreme Being, it may be difficult to achieve any results. It would be great if Your Highness can help and reply in front of the Supreme Being."
"Come to think of it, His Highness doesn't want to see the two families at war with each other again and let others reap the benefits, right?"
