Looking ahead, Mingzhu and Wangyounu both had the same question in their minds:
"Is this a Taoist temple?" Especially Mingzhu. She had lived in Qingcheng Mountain and knew what a Taoist temple looked like, so she was even more surprised. There was only one question in her mind, "Taoist temples in the Tang Dynasty and modern Taoist temples."
Is it that big of a difference?'
It turns out that Princess Yuzhen's Taoist temple is not built in the mountains, but is actually close to Chang'an City, so it is more like a separate courtyard. Not long after Mingzhu and the others left Chang'an City, they first saw a sea of flowers, and then
Going deeper, you can see exquisite Taihu stones, small pavilions, waterfalls, and clear springs scattered among the sea of flowers. It is not until you go very deep that you see the building, and this building is not what people imagined.
That kind of dark and gloomy Taoist temple is instead a large mansion with a vermilion door and exquisite cornices. Anyway, from the outside, it looks like a palace and not like a Taoist temple.
At this time, Princess Yuzhen's men had already welcomed Mingzhu and the others into the courtyard. After entering the courtyard, Mingzhu and Wangyounu were even more surprised. This courtyard looked similar to the palace and the princess's palace, the only difference was that here
The men and women who came in and out were all dressed as Taoist priests, but although they were all wearing Taoist robes, it could be seen at a glance that these people were actually servants and maids. They just changed their clothes, and nothing else changed.
Wangyounu and the others passed the middle gate, and a man in charge said to them with a smile:
"The princess is having a banquet, and I heard that the prince has sent someone here to give an order to prepare a good banquet for you. You eat first, and I will see you again after the princess has finished the banquet."
Mingzhu felt even more strange:
"The female Taoist is still hosting a banquet? What kind of Taoist is this?" She could not wait to see the Taoist princess. Li Longji, who had been following them, seemed to have seen through Mingzhu's thoughts, and he couldn't help but look on his face.
A loving smile appeared. What he loved most was Mingzhu's expression full of curiosity and eagerness to try. Seeing the person in charge walking away, Li Longji turned back to Mingzhu and said:
"How about it, do you want me to take you to see Yuzhen first?"
"Is that okay?" Mingzhu became happy when she heard that she could see Yuzhen now.
"I have a way, you two come with me." After speaking, Li Longji took out a box from his arms and walked toward the courtyard with Wangyounu and Mingzhu.
Wangyounu and Mingzhu didn't know why, so they had to follow Li Longji to see what he wanted to do. They saw Li Longji leading them through the pavilions and corridors, through the Moon Gate, and until they reached a spacious and exquisite building.
In front of the flower hall. Before Mingzhu could reach the door of the flower hall, she heard a pleasant pipa sound coming from inside. Mingzhu also learned some pipa in modern times, so she immediately heard that the person who is playing the pipa in the flower hall now
Her skills are very high. Especially the sound of the piano has a rare elegance and nobility. Once you hear it, you will definitely not be able to play it by an ordinary singer.
‘Is it Princess Yuzhen who is playing the piano herself?’ Mingzhu thought to herself.
Li Longji also heard the sound of the piano, and a helpless smile appeared on his face, and he said as if talking to himself:
"Is this girl Yuzhen really going to tempt you this time?"
Of course Mingzhu knew what "touching the heart" meant, so she felt even more strange in her heart. Could it be that this princess Taoist priest not only lived in luxury, but also got married?
Suspiciously, the three people had already walked to the door. The door of the flower hall was wide open. Mingzhu and Wangyounu walked to the door, but they all exclaimed in low voices because they saw the man playing the pipa at a glance.
——It turned out to be Wang Wei!
I haven't seen him for many days, but Wang Wei is still handsome and energetic. I saw him wearing a light blue robe with several dancing cranes embroidered with silver thread. He wore a scholar's scarf on his head.
There was a piece of beautiful jade inlaid on the scarf. The jade color was smooth and clean, and the brilliance was flowing. At this time, he was playing the pipa with all his concentration. He lowered his head slightly, and his whole body and mind seemed to have been devoted to the music score. But for some reason, he
There was a distressing confusion in his eyes.
Wangyounu and Mingzhu were stunned. They had not seen Wang Wei for a while. They never dreamed that Wang Wei would appear here. Moreover, his clothes were much more luxurious than before.
But it seemed to add a touch of sadness.
Wangyounu suddenly felt something in her heart. She approached Li Longji and asked in a low voice:
"My lord, do you know Wang Wei is here?"
Li Longji was a little confused by Wangyounu's sudden question. Just as he was about to speak, Wangyounu's second question came again:
"You knew Wang Wei was here today, so you brought us here on purpose, right?"
Li Longji didn't expect that Wangyounu would suddenly ask such a pointed question. To be honest, he had always had a grudge against Wang Wei, so he deliberately found an opportunity to introduce Wang Wei to Princess Yuzhen.
Wang Wei was fascinated by him when he arrived at the most magnificent place. And Wang Wei became Princess Yuzhen's guest. Of course, this kind of result was what Li Longji was happy to see. But he really didn't know that Wang Wei would be here today.
When he heard that Princess Yuzhen was hosting a banquet, he guessed that if Yuzhen hosted a banquet, she would definitely invite Wang Wei over, so he brought Mingzhu to "experience". He hoped that Mingzhu would meet Wang Wei here by chance.
And Li Longji absolutely didn't want his thoughts to be known to outsiders, so now he was a little embarrassed when he was being questioned by Wangyounu. But fortunately, Mingzhu suddenly let out a low cry at this time.
exclaimed:
"Oh my god, Princess Yuzhen is so beautiful!"
Mingzhu's words attracted Wangyounu's attention. She no longer bothered to question Li Longji and followed Mingzhu's gaze. This spacious flower hall was even better than the one in Princess Anle's mansion.
And, all the furniture and utensils placed are very expensive. At this moment, the flower hall is full of distinguished guests. Behind the banquets on both sides are full of guests, all of them are young and handsome men, and one can see how well these men dress.
They are all either rich or noble, and they must all be the sons of officials or wealthy families. In the corner of the flower hall, there is a group of young and beautiful dancers. They are all listening to Wang Wei's pipa intoxicatedly. And in China
Sitting in the middle of the hall must be Princess Yuzhen.
I saw that Princess Yuzhen did not wear the bright, off-the-shoulder dress like other aristocratic girls of the Tang Dynasty. She wore a Taoist robe. But her Taoist robe was obviously improved. The Taoist robe was made of goose yellow.
It is sewn from satin, with patterns of auspicious clouds embroidered with gold thread, so it looks sparkling. Moreover, the Taoist robe is also cut out of the waist, outlining Princess Yuzhen's exquisite figure, with a willow-like waist, raised breasts, and
The slender hands exposed under the narrow cuffs are clearly visible.
Looking further up, Yuzhen has a delicate face with a pointed mandible. If she were placed in modern times, she would definitely have a very photogenic face. Unfortunately, she was born in the Tang Dynasty, so she looks a bit flirtatious.
However, she is a princess, so even if she is a bit charming, it will not hinder her dignity. She has two thin eyebrows, a pair of almond-shaped eyes, and a small nose bridge. In short, she is a beauty. And on her head, she is a beauty.
Full of pearls and jade jewelry.
To be honest, Yuzhen's dress is really surprising. She is neither vulgar nor Taoist. She is an ordinary woman, but she wears a Taoist robe. She is a female Taoist priest, and her hair is full of pearls.
Now Princess Yuzhen holds a golden cup in her hand, but her eyes fall directly on Wang Wei. Yuzhen's cheeks are stained with two patches of red clouds, and her eyes are watery. At first glance, she has been moved by love.
Look.
To be honest, if Yuzhen's current expression fell on Princess Anle, then Mingzhu would not have the slightest doubt that Wang Wei would be "doomed" tonight, but Princess Yuzhen is still a person who has not left the cabinet.
She is a young girl, and she also carries the name of a female Taoist priest, so Mingzhu really can't guess what will happen next.
Just when Mingzhu and Wangyounu were in awe, Li Longji gently pulled her and motioned for her to go in with him.
So, Mingzhu and the others followed Li Longji step by step. They saw Li Longji walking along the side of the flower hall, where the servants usually walked back and forth, and walked to Princess Yuzhen, bowed slightly and said
:
"Princess, I am a messenger from the Linzi Palace. My princess recently got a nice piece of jewelry. She thought it was very suitable for the princess, so she ordered us to send it over."
As soon as she heard that there were fresh jewelry, Yuzhen immediately became energetic. She was really similar to Princess Anle in this aspect.
"What kind of jewelry is it?" Yuzhen asked.
Li Longji opened the box in his hand and saw a beaded flower strung with pearls inside. It was crystal clear and beautiful in shape. There must be no shortage of such things in the Prince's Palace of Linzi, so since Li Longji wanted to come to Yuzhen, he took it as he wanted.
Just a few pieces will do.
As soon as Yuzhen saw the pearl flowers, he really showed his affection, raised his hand and picked it up:
"That's great. Go back and thank your princess for me."
"yes."
"How is your prince? I heard someone said that he seems to be sick?" Although Yuzhen was asking, she was just saying a few perfunctory words. She was now fully focused on Zhuhua.
Mingzhu really admired Princess Yuzhen. She admired her for two things. One was that she turned a deaf ear to the major events happening in the Prince's Palace of Linzi and Shouchun. The other was that she didn't realize at all that the 'policeman' in front of her was her.
's biological brother.
It seems that this princess really only thinks about her own pleasure and nothing else!
Mingzhu raised her eyes and looked around. Inadvertently, her eyes collided with Wang Wei's!
