There is a black lotus in the deep palace

Chapter 19 A man's heart, a needle in the sea

Emperor Jing Yuan had eight princes and six princesses.

The eldest son Xia Houyu was of mediocre qualifications, so he was granted the title of King Ning, and he went to the fief early.

The second prince Xia Houming fell off his horse in his early years and suffered from leg problems, so he was granted the title of King Ping. The emperor pardoned him and opened a mansion in the capital to recuperate.

The third prince, Xia Houjue, the crown prince, was born in the first line of the Yuan Dynasty. He is talented and sophisticated, and is in awe of all the ministers of civil and military affairs.

The fourth prince, Xia Houyan, born of Empress Qin, is the second son of the direct line and has not yet been crowned king.

His character and morals are comparable to those of the prince, he is humble, courteous and corporal, has both talents and virtues, and both civil and military skills, and he has also received unanimous praise from the ministers of the DPRK and China.

Five princes and six princes, one is fond of martial arts, the other is addicted to piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, the seventh prince and eight princes are young and are studying.

Three of the six princesses have already been married, and the remaining three are also young and raised in the harem.

Today's family banquet, except for those who cannot come in the fief, all are here.

Tang Wanning doesn't want to make friends with these people, but it is still necessary to match these names with strange faces.

She watched them from time to time as she drank.

In this way, the whole banquet is not particularly boring.

……

The banquet lasted until the end of Haishi.

On nights in May, the cool wind blows from time to time.

Coming out of the main hall, she followed Xia Houjue and walked slowly towards Yuqing Palace.

The night is dark, the moon is bright and bright, the stars in the sky and the Fengyang Palace behind each other complement each other, interweaving into a piece of prosperity in the world.

The two walked slowly, one behind the other, under the moonlight, neither of them spoke.

The two rows of palace people followed from a distance behind, no one stepped forward to disturb, and the atmosphere was rare and quiet.

"It's so beautiful here!"

As soon as Tang Wanning opened her mouth, a faint smell of alcohol sprayed out.

She drank a little too much, and the conversation started.

Seeing that Xia Houjue ignored her, she staggered forward, put her arm on his shoulder, and asked carelessly.

"Hey!"

"Why do not you speak!"

Xia Houjue frowned and moved her arm away: "What?!"

His fingers inadvertently touched her firm and firm arm, and he subconsciously avoided it.

After being flashed for a moment, Tang Wanning pursed her lips, she wasn't too disappointed, she just teased lightly.

"Right!"

"You... hiccup!"

"You are a prince! You have many concubines! I already knew it!"

"Well, it's not bad, let's go our separate ways in the future!"

"Really?!" Xia Houjue curled his lips coldly.

"By the way! I still have a premise!" Tang Wanning looked arrogant.

"Say!"

"You must...provide me with good food and drink, and tell your little wives not to mess with me, or don't blame me for being merciless!"

Her tone was full of arrogance, her eyes were extremely flamboyant, and her posture was proud and wanton.

Xia Houjue raised his thick eyebrows slightly, no woman had ever dared to speak to him like this before.

But strangely, he doesn't seem to be angry!
He even felt that under the clear light of night, those eyes, which were clearer than the stars in the sky, were so beautiful that people couldn't take their eyes off them.

He must be crazy.

Xia Houjue turned his face away, his Adam's apple moved slightly.

"it is good!"

"Gu promises you!"

Tang Wanning was very happy.

"That's what you said!!"

"From now on, we will not violate the river water!"

She couldn't help but yawned.

"forget it. I'm done here!"

"I'm sleepy, I have to go back to sleep! You are not allowed to follow me, go by yourself!"

She wobbled and directed.

Xia Houjue's black eyes sank, and he snorted coldly.

"understood!"

He also turned around and prepared to go to Chongming Hall.

Tang Wanning suddenly stopped him again.

"Wait a minute!"

Xia Houjue subconsciously turned around, and saw Tang Wanning trotting towards him two steps, her skirt flying.

"I still have something to tell you!"

Xia Houjue was a little impatient and raised her chin.

"If you have anything else to say, you'd better finish it all at once, otherwise..." He narrowed his dark eyes slightly.

Tang Waning was not afraid of him, she raised her head generously and looked directly at him seriously.

"My father asked me to tell you something!"

"He said... let the emperor rest assured that as long as he is there, no foreigner can even step into the northwest half a step!"

After speaking, without looking at him again, he turned and left.

The breeze blows.

She was wearing a rouge-colored dress that spun in the wind, and a faint scent of wine drifted past.

Under the moonlight, there is an indescribable beauty.

……

Xia Houjue maintained the posture of raising his chin, a little absent-minded.

The elastic and firm touch of the fingertips was thrown away, but the person in front of him had long since disappeared.

what did she say?General Tang reassures his father?

No wonder the audience burst into tears. It turned out that they were homesick, but what General Tang said...

"His Royal Highness!"

Li Youquan approached him cautiously.

"Meng Fangfei called someone to invite you, and said that she is ready..."

"Don't go!"

Xia Houjue's tone was crisp, and he strode away with his hands behind his back.

The moonlight stretched his back very long, and a black robe fluttered in the wind, giving him an imposing manner.

Li Dequan was a little confused.

its not right!
Isn't side concubine Meng the crown prince's favorite person?Why don't you go?
really.

Man's heart, sea needle!
……

"His Royal Highness, is he really not coming?"

"Did you go to the Crown Princess's place?" Side Concubine Meng was very anxious.

At the beginning, she kept saying that she wanted to play hard to get, but she never thought that she would capsize in the gutter.

She hadn't seen the prince for a long time, and if she continued like this, she might fall out of favor.

"No! I didn't go!" Xue Zhu quickly comforted her.

"The crown prince went to Chongming Palace, but he didn't go anywhere!"

Meng Yuyao breathed a sigh of relief.

"Maybe Grandpa is too tired!"

"Xue Zhu, go to the kitchen and make a bowl of hangover soup and send it to Grandpa!"

"Yes!"

Xue Zhu backed out in response.

After a while, she came in with an ugly face.

"master!"

"Li Dequan said that His Highness the Crown Prince has already rested! No slaves are allowed in!"

Meng Yuyao's face flickered, and she sighed after a while.

"Maybe the prince is really tired!"

"It's getting late, let's rest too!"

"Hey!"

Xue Zhu should be, waiting for her to lie down.

……

June has entered summer, and the weather is getting hotter, but the backyard is rarely calm.

Concubine Meng fell out of favor, and Concubine Liu wanted to laugh at her, but when she realized that she was also out of favor, she shut up embarrassingly.

The two side concubines in the backyard were quiet, and the people below had nothing to argue about.

The weather is hot, and if you have that strength, you might as well stay at home and have a good rest.

Days go by like this.

Tang Wanning soon got bored of being trapped in Yuqing Palace.

Although she doesn't have to manage things or sleep with her, she eats delicious food and drinks, and her life is carefree.

But without freedom, no matter how happy you are, where can you go.

After reading many pornographic books popular in the capital, Tang Wanning completely lost her patience.

"Bi Yue, I really want to leave the palace!"
