The Road of the Queen

Bow your head and get the lotus seeds, the lotus seeds are as clear as water.Putting the lotus in the sleeve, the lotus heart is completely red.

The thousand-leaf lotus in the lake is in full bloom, red like a graceful lady, with a far-off fragrance and a clearer fragrance, each blossoming gracefully.

When you go, it is winter, and when you return, it is summer.

The Pingjiang army has won a complete victory, and has been away from home for a year, and the whole army is eager to return.

Commander Cheng Wang Li Chunqiu also rushed back to the army on the official road thirty miles away from the capital of Chang'an, and the military adviser Yin Yuting also came back, waiting to be stationed for one night and enter the city the next day.

The return of the army was supposed to be greeted by the holy cavalry in person, but there was news that the dragon was ill when they were far away in the frontier, so it was his elder brother Ping Wang Li Changping who stood at the gate of Chang'an to greet Li Chunqiu.

The emperor is sick, and the eldest prince supervises the country.

In the bright and clear sky, banners were flying on the Chang'an city tower, and rows of imperial guards were neatly arranged under the city gate, with a magnificent momentum.The large troops of the Pingjiang Army had already returned to the barracks outside the city, and the carriage of the commander Li Chunqiu drove to the city of Chang'an.Li Changping, dressed in Chinese dress and beaded shoes, with his hair tied up with a jade belt, and his broad forehead and jade face, walked slowly down the tower.

Li Changping smiled and said to Li Chunqiu who came down from the carriage: "King Cheng opened up the territory for the father and pacified the world. He has worked hard all the way and made outstanding achievements." Now he is the face of the emperor, naturally showing the attitude of an emperor.

Li Chunqiu took Yin Yuting from the carriage, and they both knelt on one knee to salute.

Li Changping glanced at the man behind the third brother, and helped Li Chunqiu up with both hands: "You don't need to be polite when you become a king." Li Chunqiu called him: "Brother Emperor."

Li Changping smiled and said, "Third brother, congratulations on your triumphant return."

At the reception banquet, Li Changping replaced the emperor in the main seat, Li Chunqiu sat in the side seat, and military advisor Yin Yuting was behind him. Attending the banquet were all the high-ranking generals of the imperial court who went with him this time, the five prime ministers of the current dynasty, and Li Changping's uncle Zheng Guogong.

At the banquet, the dancers sang and danced, played softly and sang a cappella, the silk and bamboo were endless, and the aroma of wine was overflowing.The monarchs and ministers exchanged cups and toasted Pingjiang coach Li Chunqiu one after another. Li Changping was full of praise for his third brother Li Chunqiu. When Li Chunqiu asked about his father's illness, Li Changping showed a sad face.The two talked freely about family and state affairs, as if they were in a good relationship.

This is the first time Yin Yuting has seen Li Changping. I still remember that Taoist Yinchen talked about Li Changping in the courtyard of the Yin Mansion last year, and commented on him as "a phoenix neck and a dragon head, the appearance of heaven and man." Well deserved.I saw that Li Changping was of moderate stature, with a thin face and wide forehead, eyebrows as clear as distant mountains, eyes as long as flying phoenixes, high forehead, round jaw, high spirits when speaking, chic and coquettish when drinking, really combined the majesty of his father And the softness of his mother.

Yin Yuting looked at Li Changping with a lot of emotion in his heart, if it wasn't for the silver dust to play tricks on him, he might have cast himself under his sect.Seeing Li Chunqiu looking at him again, Yin Yuting lowered his eyes and took a sip from the thin jade wine glass in front of him.

Li Changping had long noticed that the man behind Li Chunqiu was staring at him frequently, he saw that this man was respectful and handsome, with handsome bones, his pupils were as black as a dense night, and the stars were shining brightly in his eyes.The temperament is elegant, but there is a cinnabar red mole on the center of the eyebrows, which adds a bit of enchantment and evil.Li Changping had long heard that Li Chunqiu had promoted the six sons of the late Fangzhou prefect Yin Botai as a reference to Cheng Wangfu last year, and this time Li Chunqiu from Pingjiang also took him with him, which shows how much he valued Yin Liulang.Seeing that Yin Yuting was looking at him again, Li Changping simply smiled generously and said to Li Chunqiu: "Third brother, the person behind you should be Yin Liulang? Why don't you introduce me?"

Li Chunqiu smiled and said: "He is my retainer, he has no official rank, so he dare not introduce him to the emperor."

After hearing this, Li Changping patted Li Chunqiu's shoulder affectionately, "Hey, the third brother is gone, since he is your retainer and mine, why can't he recommend you."

Li Chunqiu raised his eyebrows, his wine-red lips seemed to be smiling but not a smile, and he turned to let Yin Yuting pass by.

Yin Yuting had no choice but to salute to Li Changping: "Greetings to His Royal Highness the First Prince."

"Excuse me, excuse me, Yin Liulang, get up quickly."

Yin Yuting saluted, and politely retreated behind Li Chunqiu, not daring to look at Li Changping again.But it turned out that just at the moment when Li Chunqiu turned sideways, Yin Yuting raised his eyes to meet that of Li Changping's, seeing that there was an indescribable strangeness in those phoenix eyes, which made Yin Yuting startled.

Li Changping raised his glass to Yin Yuting and said: "Yin Liulang went to Pingjiang this time to assist the coach. He has contributed a lot. Come, come, I will toast you." After saying that, he drank the wine glass in his hand.

Yin Yuting said: "Thank you, my lord." He drank the remaining wine in the cup one by one.

Li Changping said some polite words again, Yin Yuting responded politely, and the conversation was considered pleasant.

After drinking for three rounds, Ning Wang Li Changping excused himself from the banquet, and Cheng Wang Li Chunqiu took Yin Yuting to accept congratulations from all the officials, and they drank until the banquet was over before returning.

It's not that Li Chunqiu wants to drink, it's just because it's his welcome banquet and it's hard to refuse.

Chengwang Mansion

The housekeeper Liu Zihuan had already brought all the servants of the palace to the door.As soon as Li Chunqiu's carriage arrived, Liu Zihuan was the first to rush up, his face full of eager anticipation.Unexpectedly, the curtain of the car was lifted, but it was Yin Yuting poking his head out from the car cabin: "Zi Huan, don't come here without any harm."

When Liu Zihuan saw that it was him, he quickly retracted the friendship in his eyes, and said lightly, "Yin Liulang is back, don't come here without any problems, where is the prince?"

Yin Yuting pulled someone up from his lap: "Just after receiving the wind banquet in the palace, the prince was as drunk as mud on the beach."

"My lord, you are finally back..." Seeing Li Chunqiu, Liu Zihuan smiled and called softly.It's a pity that Cheng Wang Li Chunqiu was really drunk, Liu Butler hurriedly waved his hands to recruit three or four servants, several of them worked together to get Li Chunqiu off the carriage and sent him to Tingxue Pavilion.

The prince in front was taken away, and Liu Zihuan followed closely behind, not wanting to be grabbed by the wrist suddenly.Seeing that Yin Yuting's face was reddish, but his eyes were bright, he held Liu Zihuan tightly and asked, "How did you handle the tasks I entrusted to you when I left?"

Liu Zihuan's heart was on Li Chunqiu, he freed his hands and said, "Yin Liulang, the prince just came back, let me tell you about this in detail later."

Yin Yuting said: "Okay"

Yin Yuting was dismissed from this room, and Liu Zihuan hurried to Tingxue Pavilion.

Passing through the waterside pavilion, as soon as you step into the pavilion, you will be greeted with a strong aroma of wine.The maids and servants shuttled like a stream, busy cleaning and changing the clothes of the prince who was lying on the bed.

"You all go out." Liu Zihuan gave an order, and the busy servants retreated one after another, and the servant Aping even closed the door behind him.

Liu Zihuan went to the window and lit the Golden Toad Incense Cauldron placed in front of the stage.Strands of ambergris wafted out, intoxicating people.Looking back at Li Chunqiu, I couldn't help but smile from my heart to my eyes, that snow-white face like a smiling flower gradually became a spring color.Cheng Wang Li Chunqiu closed his eyes tightly, his eyelashes cast a light shadow on his eyelids, he had a high nose bridge, his gentle breathing made the nose flutter slightly, and his plump lips were rosy red.Liu Zihuan said: "My lord, Zihuan...I miss you." He took off his coat and walked to the bed in only white gauze clothes, lifted the quilt and got in.Li Chunqiu's coat has been changed by the maids, and he only wears a pair of obscene trousers.Although he had a beautiful face and a slender figure, if he hadn't taken off his clothes, it would be hard to imagine that his thin figure was actually so majestic.

Liu Zihuan curled up in Li Yuchun's arms, raised his face and kissed his chin lightly, and pressed against his chest to hear his strong heartbeat.Li Chunqiu vaguely felt someone approaching, he opened his eyes and saw Liu Zihuan's smiling face, "Zihuan..."

"My lord...why are you..." Liu Zihuan only spoke in half.The other half pressed back under Li Chunqiu's finger.

"You took Yin Liulang away, but left my Zihuan?" Li Chunqiu asked with a smile.

Liu Zihuan just stared at the man in front of him for a moment, and there was some grievance in his eyes, but more slowly affection.

"Because of you, I feel more at ease. Do you understand..." Li Chunqiu kissed Liu Zihuan's forehead, "I'm tired, please sleep with me, Zihuan." Liu Zihuan turned his back, and Li Chunqiu followed the trend Wrap around his waist from behind.Liu Zihuan said: "This time Yin Liulang has made great achievements, does the prince like him more?"

Li Chunqiu wiped the back of Liu Zihuan's ear lightly with his cheek, and sprayed his warm breath on his skin: "Zihuan is good at everything, but he is still jealous. He used to be jealous of Shen Bingjun, but now he is jealous of Yin Liulang." .”

Liu Zihuan said sullenly: "But I really don't trust my lord."

Li Chunqiu said: "Yin Liulang is different from you."

Liu Zihuan turned over and pressed his forehead against Li Chunqiu's, and the tip of their noses touched, "My lord... Please don't take Yin Liulang to heart just because of a Taoist's words."

"Zihuan..." Li Chunqiu frowned slightly, let go of Liu Zihuan and lay on his back, "What happened to you today? You really thought I cared about him..." He turned his face to Liu Zihuan and smiled softly: "Yin Liulang , can never replace my Zihuan. Come up, I'm really tired."

[Delete part of the description, please understand]

Liu Zihuan's face was flushed, sweat was dripping from the tip of his forehead and nose, but his face was smiling like a delicate flower, and he twisted his waist and limbs up and down as if floating on water.

Li Chunqiu supported the person on his back, his peach blossom eyes looked forward to the streamer, revealing some tenderness faintly.The whitened face is like a sunset glow, and its indescribable style is charming.

Liu Zihuan seemed to be drunk, shaking more and more crazily, his eyes were blurred, it was joy and pain at the same time, it was really unbearable but he couldn't stop, let him take whatever he wanted.
