Chapter 9 Happy Birthday

The willow-like little waiter stepped forward to serve Liu Wenchaoman a drink, then knelt aside.

Li Chengyun looked at Wang's mother: "Call Susu here." Then he pointed to a few girls and boys to sit beside him and Tang Weizhen, and waved his hands to signal that everyone else should go out first.

After a while, Ms. Wang led Susu over. Susu was very shy holding a pipa.

Li Chengyun said: "Play a piece of "Drunk Life, Dreams and Death", and after finishing speaking, he took advantage of the situation and put his arms around the waist of the young lady next to him, drinking from the wine cup in another young lady's hand, and said with a coquettish smile: "Of course, if you want to know, you will know." .”

Perhaps Li Chengyun is really a proficient in Fengyue, and after a few movements, Liu Wenchao looked at everything in front of him and felt a dull pain in his heart, but the calmness and composure he had cultivated in the court battles over the years made him calm down quickly. Don't you just want to force yourself to admit that you like him?Not at all.

Liu Wenchao looked at Xiao Guan who was kneeling on the ground, and said softly, "Come here, sit here."

Liu Wenchao tapped the seat next to him with his folding fan.

Xiao Guan looked weak and pitiful. After he sat down, he put the wine to Liu Wenchao's mouth. Liu Wenchao gave him a smile and said, "Look at your figure, you're so delicate. Can you drink?"

Xiao Kuan replied weakly: "Yes."

Liu Wenchao opened his folding fan smartly, and said, "A glass of wine costs 100 taels of silver."

Xiao Guan was stunned for a moment, then understood what he meant, and began to drink, just after drinking a glass, Liu Wenchao closed the folding fan, pressed it on Xiao Guan's hand, and said dotingly: "Don't move, the wine has flowed out. "After speaking, he wiped the wine from the corner of his lips with his thumb.

Xiao Kuan's face became hot, and she blushed.

Tang Weizhen, who was sitting on Liu Wenchao's left, felt that Liu Wenchao was unusual today, and joked, "Qingchuan, have you taken a fancy to this man?"

Liu Wenchao put his shoulders on his shoulders, held up the wine cup in front of him and clinked glasses with him, without saying a word.

Li Chengyun seemed to be holding back something. He stared at Liu Wenchao, and said to the young man beside him with a smirk: "If you two can drink that young man down, this king will not only pay 100 taels for a glass of wine, but in the end A fallen king will be rewarded heavily."

The two benefactors around looked at each other, thinking whether the two benefactors were fighting against each other or fighting over who had more money.

Liu Wenchao couldn't help laughing at the scene of the three boys fighting for wine. He covered his mouth with a folding fan, only showing his smiling eyes.

There was silence in the attic, only the sound of 'cuckoo' drinking, and about an hour later, Liu Wenchao saw that his young man was dying, so he added a note: "If you can persist to the end, I will take you back. "

As soon as this remark came out, several pairs of eyes looked over at the same time. Bringing it back means that there will be inexhaustible glory and wealth in the future. The gatekeeper in the prime minister's mansion, not to mention the person next to his pillow.

Liu Wenchao's image in the eyes of the common people has always been excellent and his prestige is extremely high, and he has the reputation of "the person who most wants to marry" among the people, and many men who like "Longyang's goodness" are no exception.

Seeing that he was about to die, Xiao Guan immediately acted as if he had been injected with chicken blood, showing the momentum that I could still 'fight for three hundred rounds'.

After another half an hour, the two young men fell one after another, leaving only the delicate young man, his face was flushed, he looked at Liu Wenchao, smiled shyly, and fell on the table without moving.

Liu Wenchao looked at Li Chengyun and smiled provocatively.

Li Chengyun smiled instead of anger, and laughed when he was extremely angry, but a storm was brewing in his heart.

Tang Weizhen shook his head and laughed: "Liu Wenchao! How old is he?" This sentence seemed to be a lesson but also a pampering, full of helplessness: "What are you going to do with this person?"

"Bring back."

Tang Weizhen pointed to the young man next to him who hadn't drunk, and said, "You, ask the steward to send him to 'Nanyuan'."

Liu Wenchao looked Tang Weizhen up and down, and said with a light smile, "I haven't even said where I'm going to send him, but you are kind."

"Are you going to send it to the Liu Mansion?"

Liu Wenchao thought for a while, then shrugged: "Forget it, I will do as you said."

Li Chengyun consciously looked at the two of them bored, and said coldly, "I'm going back first."

-

In Haishi, the mansion of King Chu.

As soon as Li Chengyun returned to the mansion, he hurriedly took Li Hun and walked to the backyard. He started to practice martial arts with a whole body of anger. He intended to make Liu Wenchao angry.

The more Li Chengyun thought about it, the more angry he became, at this moment Mu Yu came over and said, "It will be the crown prince's birthday in a few days, what will the prince send there?"

Li Chengyun threw Lihun heavily on the ground: "What are you giving? The prince has not been out of the palace for a long time! I heard that the prince has always liked all beautiful things, and he is known as the 'No. [-] rich man in the capital'." Li Chengyun pulled out Lihun and took it from his arms Wiping the handkerchief lightly: "What a rich man in the capital, then give him a beauty!"

Mu Yu asked in confusion, "Which beauty?"

Li Chengyun put Li Hun back into the scabbard: "You reveal to the prince the news that Qingying Hall Huakui Yu Suiyan will play tonight."

-

In the past, when the prince celebrated his birthday, more than ten or twenty tables of delicacies, wine and delicacies would be placed in the palace, and hundreds of civil and military officials would be invited to participate. Many officials and officials would bring their unmarried daughters to sing and dance, hoping to be seen by the prince at this banquet. On, was named concubine or concubine.

This year is no exception. Prince Li Changshuo came to Fengtian Hall wearing a red four-dragon robe and a small crown.

In the past years, there were so many familiar faces, but this year was different. He got a new beauty. Looking at the treasures piled up in front of him, what he thought of was the beauty lying on the bed. He wished that the banquet would end soon. Go back and teach/teach that beauty well, just thinking about it makes him unbearable.

He was so engrossed in his thoughts that he didn't even realize that Li Chengyun had come to him. Li Chengyun handed over the congratulatory gift to his servants and said with a smile, "Brother, I wish you a happy life every year and a bright future every year."

Li Changshuo's eyes were filled with boredom: "Thank you, second brother, why didn't you bring your siblings along?"

Li Chengyun said: "She hasn't passed the door yet, so it's inappropriate to bring her here."

"Father said, Princess Chu was the one who asked him to give her the marriage. I think she is very important to you. You didn't bring her to the banquet this time. I thought my second brother still remembered things from his childhood." Li Changshuo teased .

Li Changshuo and Li Chengyun did not get along with each other when they were young. Li Changshuo was the eldest son, and if there were no accidents, he was the most likely to become the prince. However, he was not interested in studying and practicing martial arts since he was a child. Instead, he liked to play with eunuchs and maids.

Li Chengyun was two years younger than Li Changshuo, and he was very intelligent and studious since he was a child, so many ministers compared the two of them, and Li Changshuo resented Li Chengyun.

When Li Chengyun was five years old, he was fishing in the pond. Li Changshuo led the slaves around him away and pushed him into the pond when he was unaware. He was rescued by a passing eunuch, and because he had soaked in the water for too long, Li Chengyun had a fever and fell into a coma for three or four days. The eunuch also stayed by his side, but in the end the emperor only punished Li Changshuo to face the wall and think for two years.

Two years later, when Li Changshuo came out, he couldn't wait to find Li Chengyun. Relying on his status as the eldest son of the emperor, he beat to death the eunuch who rescued him last time. The reason was that the eunuch had dirty hands and feet and stole his things. Li Changshuo first asked someone to put a piece of his own jade pendant under the eunuch's pillow, and then asked someone to search his residence.

When Li Changshuo was 16 years old, he had already been canonized as the prince. He invited Li Chengyun to try his sword skills. After seven years, Li Chengyun was no longer the child who was bullied by others. He was afraid that Li Changshuo would play tricks again, so he invited the emperor to come. Watch, with the emperor present, Li Changshuo naturally couldn't cheat. In the end, Li Chengyun won. The emperor allowed Li Chengyun to propose the reward he wanted. Li Chengyun took the opportunity to say that he wanted Liu Wenchao, a servant of the Imperial Academy, as his teacher. The emperor thought that this child was sincere, He only thought about studying, so he assigned Liu Wenchao to him.

"The emperor and empress are here." The eunuch shouted outside the door.

Li Changshuo and Li Chengyun looked over together, and the atmosphere of saber-rattling disappeared immediately.

After everyone knelt down and saluted, the emperor smiled and said, "Prince, go to the racecourse and see what good things I have given you."

A group of people turned to the racecourse, and saw a black satin horse from a distance, shining with oil, only four Saixue horses with white hooves.

Emperor Huiming laughed and said, "This black-tailed horse comes from the Western Regions. It is a rare and good horse. It is extremely difficult to tame. If you tame it today, it will belong to you."

Li Changshuo couldn't hold back the joy in his heart: "Father, this horse must belong to me."

He walked over quickly, thinking that the BMW beauties were all ready today, and what could be more exciting than this, he stepped on the horseback full of joy.

As soon as he got on the horse, the horse bumped like crazy on the field. Li Changshuo was so frightened that he lost his mind.

Emperor Huiming sighed, and the empress squeezed the handkerchief tightly, never leaving Li Changshuo's eyes for a moment.

There were still many ministers on the field, all bowing their heads and sighing, Chen Xueliang couldn't bear to look at it anymore, today he took his daughter to attend the crown prince's birthday banquet, he wanted to use this birthday banquet to build a bridge for his daughter, now this situation does not know her daughter What would you think.

Emperor Huiming said: "Whoever is here today can tame this fierce horse, I will reward him."

The young princes present were eager to try, but the black-tailed horse was originally given to the prince, and they were afraid of offending the prince, so they dared not stand up.

At this moment, Li Chengyun stood up and said, "I am willing to give it a try."

Emperor Huiming nodded, and Li Changshuo, who fell off his horse, looked particularly embarrassed, and was supported to come to Emperor Huiming: "My son made my father laugh at me."

Emperor Huiming hated iron but not steel: "Get up!"

Li Chengyun passed in front of Liu Wenchao, gave him a meaningful look, and walked quickly.

Li Chengyun first touched the neck of the black-headed horse, but the black-headed horse seemed to know that this man was here to tame him. It proudly turned its head over and kicked its hind legs. When it was about to run away, Li Chengyun took the opportunity to jump on the horse , let the fierce horse jump back and forth, and hold on to the mane of the black-tailed horse, but the fierce horse is a fierce horse after all, and has not been tamed because of this. It repeated its old tricks and jumped forward suddenly. To fall off the horse.
