Yan Shang did not know Yang Si.
But when Yang Si stood behind him and asked him to turn around and the princess was about to strangle him to death, he suddenly remembered who this person was.
Back then in Yongshou Temple, Mu Wanyao pulled him away to avoid this man.
Now, Mu Wanyao has to hide again...
Yan Shang couldn't help but feel a little strange. He didn't know what the relationship between these two was. Was the princess annoyed by the person behind her, or was she afraid of the person behind her...
The chaotic thoughts in his mind did not stop Yan Shangxiang from helping the princess. Following the strength of Mu Wan's shaking and pinching him, he relaxed a little, and directly made a light tearing sound, took a half step back, and threw his sleeves on the face of the girl in his arms.
Mu Wan, who was lowering her head in his arms, shook her face and was hit. She was confused:...Does this count as being beaten?
Before she could figure out whether Yan Shang had hit her, Yan Shang pushed her away, turned around, and said angrily: "You are such an ignorant woman. You don't even know how to serve your husband. Why don't you get out of here?"
With that pull, he threw Mu Wanyao half a step away from his arms, and when he turned his shoulder to the side, he blocked Yang Si's possibility of seeing Mu Wanyao.
Mu Wanyao finally reacted. She didn't even dare to make a sound, fearing that Yang Sanlang, who was too familiar with her, would recognize her. Covering her face that was hit by Yan Shang's sleeve, Mu Wanyao lowered her head and trotted upstairs.
I didn't dare look back to face the situation behind me.
Because she was distracted, she tripped while running up the stairs, but she just lifted her skirt and continued running.
Yan Shang behind her was worried about her.
When Mu Wanyao ran upstairs, from Yan Shang's perspective, he could no longer see Princess Danyang.
At this time, Yan Shang turned around and saluted to Yang Si who asked him to turn around.
When he looked up, Yan Shang showed just the right amount of surprise: "Have we met this gentleman before?"
Yang Si was a young man, as straight and sharp as a sword. He did not look at Yan Shang, but raised his head to look at the young lady who had just covered her face and was chased away by Yan Shang.
The person was no longer visible, but Yang Si felt something was strange.
Yang Si said, "In a place like this, is there any lady who can afford to wear clothes of such fine material and use hairpins like that?"
Yan Shang paused and was about to explain, but a servant following behind Yang Si explained: "Sanlang, the ladies living in Nanqu are very rich. Not to mention the ladies in Zhongqu."
Yang Si reluctantly accepted this explanation, retracted his gaze and looked at Yan Shang.
Yan Shang had a gentle expression on his face and had been waiting for him for a long time.
Yang Si stared at him for a long while, then asked slowly, "Are you trying to curry favor with Princess Danyang?"
Yan Shang: “…”
His expression remained unchanged, and he smiled: "My dear, what are you talking about? I just asked the princess to send the manuscript on my behalf..."
Yang Si sneered and interrupted his explanation.
Yang Si said, "People like you, don't I know what you are thinking? Especially people like you... You think you have some talent and want to marry a princess. Weren't you hanging out with that girl Yaoyao in Yongshou Temple before?"
Shake.
Yan Shang's heart was moved slightly and he frowned slightly.
He asked: "I know my own worth and will never do the impossible. My dear, you have indeed misunderstood me, but I don't know who you are and why you are so familiar with Princess Danyang..."
Yang Si said calmly: "The Yang family of Hongnong is from Chang'an, the third son of the Yang family."
Yan Shang said that he was disrespectful and disrespectful.
However, Yang Si could see that this man was not as enthusiastic as the others who came up to him upon hearing his identity. This man had a kind of distant and polite manner in his behavior... Perhaps it was because of this that Mu Wanyao agreed to help him publish the manuscript?
However, Yang Si didn't bother to care about this person's name or how good his relationship with Mu Wanyao was.
Yang Sizhi taught him a lesson: "You just arrived in Chang'an, and it seems that you want to take the imperial examination, but you hang out in places like Beili every day? You are dazzled by the romantic life in Chang'an. What qualifications do you have to cling to the Yaoyao?"
There are no words yet.
But in order not to tell others about Mu Wanyao, he said ashamedly: "...My dear, you are right."
Yang Si stared at him coldly: "I don't care what your little thoughts are, but if I find out that you took advantage of Yaoyao or bullied her, I will kill you.
"It's not a big deal for me, Yang San, to kill someone in Chang'an!"
Yan Shang's eyebrows moved slightly, and after a while he said: "My dear, it seems that you have some misunderstandings about me..."
Yang Si sneered. He was like a cold-faced devil. Seeing Yan Shang's elegant and romantic demeanor, he was too lazy to deal with such a person. It was just because he had seen him in Yongshou Temple some time ago, and threatened him by the way. He was not interested in getting to know this person.
And maybe in a few days, this kind of person will disappear from Princess Danyang's side.
After threatening, Yang Si walked away, and the people behind him hurriedly followed this unruly Sanlang. Another group of women surrounded him, and put rouge and powder on Yang Sanlang: "Sanlang, you haven't been here for a long time..."
Through the scent of rouge, Yang Si's impatient voice rang out: "Get out! Don't block the way!"
Yan Shang, who was standing in place, had his eyelashes trembling slightly, and looked suddenly at Yang Sanlang who was about to leave the building.
The rebellious tone in the words "Don't block the road" is so similar to the tone Mu Wanyao usually uses when speaking.
These two people have a close relationship.
So who is imitating whose tone?
Yan Shang was extremely sensitive, and he could tell something was unusual just from a casual remark from Yang Sanlang. He could no longer remain calm, and only laughed at himself after Yang Sanlang had left.
Why is he thinking about these things?
Whether it was Mu Wanyao imitating Yang Si, or Yang Si imitating Mu Wanyao, or the two of them had known each other for too long and unconsciously became very similar...what did it have to do with him?
The key is whether the results of the imperial examination will be announced tomorrow.
The key point is whether the swipe of his sleeve just now made Mu Wanyao angry.
-----
Yan Shang asked some people and found Mu Wanyao in an elegant house upstairs.
Therefore, the building was lit all night long. He closed the door and went in. Without lighting a candle, he could see the sunset.
However, she was not waiting to scold him with a proud look as usual, but was curled up on a couch, with her arms resting on the table that she had moved to her left, her cheek resting on her hand, her eyes closed, probably asleep.
Her hair is slightly tilted, her lips are slightly parted, and her snow-white face is faintly dotted with a little gold powder sprinkled on the corners of her eyes. The sleeping beauty under the lamp is the most flawless and moving.
Even when she was asleep, she looked like an elegant and graceful princess, and there was nothing indecent about her.
When he first saw her sleeping, Yan Shang was stunned for a moment, and his first reaction was to turn around, thinking that he shouldn't look at her innocent face. But he only calmed down for a while, hesitated again, and turned back to look down at her.
Upon looking at this, he saw that her arms probably couldn't support her cheeks, and she was about to fall down while swaying in her sleep... Yan Shang hurried over a few steps, and when she was about to fall, he put his hand on the table and supported her face.
Mu Wanyao's face hit Yan Shang's hand. This time, Mu Wanyao opened her eyes and was awakened.
Her eyes were misty, still with a hint of confusion from just waking up, and she looked up blankly at the young man who suddenly knelt in front of her.
Mu Wan was stunned: Hey, how come I woke up and there was a handsome boy beside my bed? Is he here to serve me?
Yan Shang saw that she was sleepy, sighed, supported her face with his hands and helped her sit up, and explained softly: "I'm sorry to have kept Your Highness waiting for a long time. Your Highness fell asleep and almost fell just now. I helped him up. I didn't mean to offend Your Highness."
Mu Wan came back to her senses: "Oh."
She sat up straight, covered her mouth and yawned, she was so sleepy that tears were about to flow out: "Yang San left?"
Yan Shang: “Yes.”
He paused and tentatively said, "Yang Sanlang seems to care about Your Highness."
Mu Wanyao: "He doesn't care about me, he just doesn't like me. If he had seen me here just now, he would not only scold me for being immoral, but he would also definitely report me to the prince."
Mu Wan yawned and spoke vaguely: "We all came in from the back door tonight, so we were more secretive. Obviously you don't want to get involved in the prince's affairs, so what we did tonight must not be known by Yang Si, that big mouth."
Yan Shang stared at her in a daze and said softly, "It's me who made things difficult for His Highness."
Seeing that she was so sleepy but still managed to talk to him, he felt a little sad for some reason.
Yan Shang took out a clean handkerchief from his bosom and said softly, "Your Highness, please wipe the tears from your eyes."
When Mu Wanyao mentioned that he was so sleepy that he cried, he just touched his cheek and remembered something.
She suddenly perked up.
Staring at Yan Shang: "When you were down there just now, did you hit me in the face with your sleeve?"
Yan Shang sighed: "I am not careful, does it hurt, Your Highness?"
Mu Wan patted the couch and said, "It hurts so much! What do you think I should do?"
Yan Shang hesitated: "Your Highness, are you going to fight back?"
Mu Wan raised her eyes and looked into the void: "Just compensate me, I'm too lazy to hit you, doesn't my hand hurt?"
Seeing her gentleness beneath her domineering attitude, Yan Shang smiled slightly. He asked softly where the highness was hit. Mu Wan shook her head and said that she had forgotten because it didn't hurt at all. But she pointed at her cheek randomly, saying here, here, there.
Anyway, my whole face hurt from being hit.
Maybe it will be swollen tomorrow.
Yan Shang was extremely patient, and after saying sorry, he went out to find some ice flakes, put them in a towel, and helped her wipe her face. Mu Wan shook her head and refused, so Yan Shang said that it was his clean towel, not one that had been used by other ladies in the building.
He held her face in his hands, almost hugging her, and gently wiped her face with a handkerchief.
He also knew that she was looking for trouble, but he didn't say anything.
But seeing that Mu Wanyao was too sleepy and yawned after speaking a few words to him, Yan Shang became more gentle: "Your Highness, go to sleep. I will stay outside and wait for news alone. Your Highness has worked so hard for me, I am really ashamed."
Mu Wanyao really couldn't hold on any longer.
She staggered to her feet and said, "Okay, I'll go get some sleep. You stay outside and don't let anyone in."
She didn't forget to threaten: "This princess hates being seen sleeping. If you..."
Yan Shang said: "Don't worry, Your Highness."
Mu Wan turned her head and looked at him. He was standing beside the candle, with a graceful demeanor like a bamboo.
Mu Wanyao pursed her lips, and for some reason, she felt a softness in her heart. She said nothing more, went behind the screen, and went to bed.
As for whether Yan Shang wanted to sleep tonight or whether he planned to stay up all night, Princess Danyang didn't care about his consciousness.
-----
The drums sounded in the morning.
The first drum sounded from the main gate tower of Taiji Palace, followed by drum sounds that spread outward from the central drum tower, creating circles of ripples.
The drum beat three thousand times, and with the drumbeats, the gates of the imperial palace, the imperial city, and the inner quarters opened one after another. At the same time, the morning bells of more than a hundred temples in the city rang.
The rain that had fallen all night had stopped long ago. The whole of Chang'an woke up to the sound of three thousand drums and in the sunlight.
As a new day begins, the streets of the city are bustling with people coming and going, and the city becomes prosperous and lively again.
Mu Wanyao opened the window and stood on the second floor attic of the first floor of Beili Nanqu, looking out at the whole vibrant and alive Wei. Such a prosperous and bustling Chang'an aroused the pride in everyone in Wei.
It was this kind of Chang'an that made Feng Xianyu obsessed with it and unwilling to leave; it also made her, a princess who was married to a foreign country, miss it day and night and want to come back.
Someone was knocking on the door. Mu Wanyao said "hmm" faintly, the door opened, and Fang Tong came in.
Fang Tong whispered, "Your Highness, Feng Lang visited the Princess last night. At dawn, the Princess herself drove into the center of the palace. I guess the list has to be changed back."
Mu Wan shook: "Where is Yan Shang?"
Fang Tong: "Because he had to go and see the list, Yan Erlang just waited for his subordinates to come back and left. Before leaving, Yan Erlang asked the people in the building to prepare breakfast for Your Highness, and he has already paid for it. Your Highness, do you want to go downstairs to eat now?"
Mu Wan smiled and suddenly said in a teasing tone: "Eh? I thought he was so calm yesterday and didn't care about the results on the list. Turns out he still cares?"
The princess turned around and raised her chin to Fang Tong. "After breakfast, let's go to the palace and wait for my father to finish his court session. Then, I'll greet him and say good morning. I have to avoid suspicion about the notice posted today, so I won't go to see it.
"But remember to report the results to me."
Fang Tong naturally agreed. He served the princess breakfast, and the two of them secretly went out through the back door and reunited with Chunhua and other servants who had been waiting outside the Beilifang Gate all night. Sitting on the horse, Princess Danyang entered the palace in a grand manner.
-----
When the imperial examination results were posted, countless talented scholars gathered around them.
When Yan Shang arrived here, the place was already crowded with people. I don't know if it was the scholars waiting for the list to be posted, many powerful and wealthy families had parked their carriages here, ready to see who would pass the exam this year.
The talented people who passed the imperial examination every year were extremely valuable and were fought over by these powerful families. If there was someone they liked, they would immediately arrange for the marriage.
This trend is called "catching a son-in-law from under the list".
Yan Shang had been studying at the Imperial College for half a month and had met many people. He greeted people along the way and was so popular that Wei Shu, who was sitting in the tavern opposite the posting position, stared at Yan Shang for a long time.
Everyone was talking to Yan Shang:
"Yan Suchen, I went to Yongshou Temple to look for you today, but why didn't I find you?"
"Yan Er, why did you come just now?"
"Yan Suchen will definitely get good results this time."
Yan Shang smiled and returned the greetings, answering everyone's polite concerns one by one.
Sitting on the second floor of the tavern, the servant boy beside Wei Shu was stunned when he saw Yan Erlang dancing with long sleeves and surrounded by people below.
Bookboy: "Qi Lang...how does he know so many people? Hasn't he only been in Chang'an for a month?"
The sunlight was like snow, and the fourteen-year-old Wei Shu drank his tea calmly, not caring: "Some people are born with better relationships. Just like I was born with bad relationships."
Wei Shu came to Chang'an nearly a year earlier than Yan Shang, but he didn't make any friends in Chang'an.
First, he was too young. Children of ordinary aristocratic families at his age were still studying and would never take the imperial examination. Second, well, he was indeed aloof and reserved. It was Yan Shang who took the initiative to be friends with him. According to his original personality, Wei Shu would not be friends with anyone.
The servant boy immediately spoke up for his master: "My master, how can you be unpopular? You are just too lazy to socialize with others..."
Wei Shu glanced at the servant boy and he shut up. He looked at his husband and said calmly: "Yan Suchen has his own strengths, and I have my own strengths. Everyone has different fortunes and different paths. I am not jealous of him, so you don't have to find excuses for me."
As they were talking, a large group of knights came with gongs. The clerk on the drum tower saw the dust raised by the horses' hooves from afar, and quickly went up to the drum tower and rang the bell, signaling the people below to disperse, because the list was about to be posted!
-----
"Records of Successful Examinations" records the number of successful candidates in that year.
A total of 2,000 people took the exam, and the center admitted 22 people.
Number one: Wei Shu (fourteen this year), first in the class;
Second place: Zheng Hanming (33 this year), who has been taking the exam for ten years;
Tanhua: Yan Shang (18 years old), first in the year;
The remaining 19 Jinshi are...
After the notice was posted, there was an uproar below the list. Some were happy, some were angry. Some were grabbed by the sleeves and asked if they wanted to get married, some sat on the ground and cried loudly...
Wei Shu did not show up at all. He asked his servant to check the results and then left quietly without being restrained by anyone.
As for Lang Shang, when he saw his name appear on the list of Tanhua Lang, he felt a little relieved. But then he thought of the hardships he had gone through to achieve this result and Feng Xianyu who broke down and covered his sleeves last night, and he felt sad.
He calmed himself down, glanced at his own name, and then looked to see if there were any other acquaintances on the list who had passed.
Unfortunately, apart from Wei Shu, he didn't know anyone else. Liu Wenji failed the exam again...
The difficulty of imperial examinations cannot be described in a single word.
When Yan Shang turned around, he seemed to see Liu Wenji, who looked sad, in the crowd. When he hesitated, Liu Wenji glanced at him, turned around and left. Yan Shang chased after him for two steps, and was drowned by the crowd.
He was surrounded by a group of servants in horror.
"Are you Yan Shangyan Suchen? Do you have a wife? My husband wants to be a matchmaker for you..."
"Hey, my dear, why are you leaving? Do you look down on our Lu family?"
"It's okay if you don't want to marry a wife. You can take a concubine. My wife is from thirty to thirteen years old, and you can choose any one of them."
"Yan Lang, Yan Lang! Don't hide!"
The enthusiasm and boldness of the people of Chang'an stunned Yan Shang, a country bumpkin from Lingnan. He had indeed heard of the custom of "catching a son-in-law under the list", but he had never expected it to be so exaggerated.
The enthusiastic people in Chang'an desperately threw business cards into his arms, asking him to go and see their own girl. Another person kept holding Yan Shang's hand and refused to let go. Yan Shang, who was so good at socializing, struggled to get rid of his hand several times, but still couldn't...
There was also an exaggerated servant boy, who knelt on the ground, hugged his thighs, and howled at him to go and see his husband. His husband especially wanted to meet him, the newly-crowned top scholar, and wanted to be friends with him and become "old friends".
Even Yan Shang, who was so good-tempered, was a little annoyed: "Everyone, I am only one person, and I may not be able to arrange so many marriages... Please let me go, and I will go back and discuss it with my father, okay?"
Yan Shang lied without blinking: "Wait for me half an hour, I will come back to give you an explanation."
After much persuasion, Yan Shang finally broke free from the encirclement.
In fact, when people heard the name "Tanhua Lang", they knew that this man must be good-looking. Which of the gorgeous ladies in Chang'an didn't want to marry a handsome man?
So the other Jinshi could barely cope with it. When Yan Shang squeezed out of the crowd, his back was already wet with sweat and he smiled bitterly.
He was grateful to his elder brother for allowing him to exercise every day, otherwise he would have been squeezed to death or suffocated in the huge crowd just now.
Yan Shang wiped the sweat from his forehead, and then looked back at the still enthusiastic people of Chang'an behind him, and shook his head and was about to hide. But he glanced casually and saw Feng Xianyu standing at the door of the wine shop opposite, with a pale face, staring at him.
-----
Yan Shang paused, then walked over. Without saying a word, he saluted Feng Xianyu.
Feng Xianyu still stared at the enthusiastic crowd below the list and said, "Can you give my daughter back to me?"
Yan Shang stood beside him and whispered, "I lied last night because I was in a hurry. I didn't ask anyone to kidnap your daughter. I just knew that Brother Feng cared about the young lady, so I used the young lady to provoke Brother Feng."
Feng Xianyu glanced at the young man next to him, and although he felt sad, he actually felt relieved.
Yan Shang said, "In fact, Mr. Feng arranged the young lady's whereabouts so secretly. He should have known that even Princess Danyang would not be able to find the young lady overnight. Brother Feng was just worried and confused, and he didn't dare to have any accidents involving the young lady's safety. I took advantage of Brother Feng's psychology, and I am really ashamed."
Feng Xianyu leaned against the flagpole of the tavern and said calmly, "I only have this one daughter. I may not have other children in the future. Of course I love her. You use her to threaten me. I have to say that at such a young age, your ability to read people's hearts is really better than mine."
Feng Xianyu sneered again: "But Yan Suchen, don't underestimate the people of this world! Don't think that with your little tricks, you can play with the people of the world like I do. You take care of yourself, Chang'an will teach you a lesson."
Yan Shang said gently: "Thank you for your teachings, Brother Feng. But Brother Feng is still young, why do you say that there will be no other children?"
Feng Xianyu looked at him indifferently. Even though he was bullying Yan Shang like this, Yan Shang was still gentle. Even though Feng Xianyu was very angry with Yan Shang, he couldn't help but admire Yan Shang's good manners.
Feng Xianyu asked, "You, Yan Suchen, can't you guess why?"
Yan Shang paused and said softly: "Is it because Brother Feng still intends to continue serving the Princess, so... Brother Feng will not have any other children in this life?"
Feng Xianyu: “Yeah.”
They both fell silent and stopped talking.
Obviously, Feng Xianyu had given up other ways. He had already hooked up with the eldest princess, and he didn't want to give up all his efforts. He must earn a future with the eldest princess... With the eldest princess's protection, even if he failed this year, his name would definitely be on the list of candidates for the imperial examination next year.
Feng Xianyu has developed a certain obsession with scientific research.
He had never had it before, so he had to give it a try. Even if the result might not be good... he just wanted to have it once and see.
Feng Xianyu asked Yan Shang: "Yan Erlang gave me a lecture last night, and there were many great truths. Why didn't he say anything today? Why didn't he persuade me not to think about serving the princess? Did Yan Erlang think that I am no longer mean after one night?"
Yan Shang looked at him and said, "Brother Feng, you don't have to be like this. Brother Feng naturally chose this path, so why should I say more? I don't think Brother Feng is a mean person for serving the princess. Since Brother Feng has chosen this path, just go on. Others have no right to question your choice, Brother Feng, just make your own decision."
Feng Xianyu looked at him in a daze.
Yan Shang smiled: "As long as Brother Feng doesn't replace me next time. As for the rest, Brother Feng doesn't need to care about other people's opinions, just stick to your own way."
Feng Xianyu stared at Yan Shang for a long time.
After a while, Feng Xianyu smiled bitterly and looked away.
Feng Xianyu narrowed his eyes, looking at the bustling crowd under the list and the sunlight above his head. He murmured, "Yan Er, Yan Er... I always thought you were a hypocrite, being nice to everyone and remembering everyone. I mocked you in my heart for being a sycophant, but now it seems... maybe you are a true gentleman, and I just can't see through you.
“I just can’t see through it.”
Feng Xianyu said: "I hope I can have the chance to serve in the same court with you in the future. I want to see what kind of person you are."
-----
In the East Palace, Yan Shang was also being discussed at this time.
At dawn in the morning, the eldest princess went to the palace to change the quota back, and the crown prince approved it, and the list was finally finalized.
According to the eldest princess, it was Feng Xianyu who cried and insisted on how deep his friendship with Yan Shang was, and how he felt guilty towards his friend... The eldest princess became annoyed and impatient, and yet she doted on her new favorite, so she simply went into the palace and changed her name.
The prince talked about this with his staff and sighed, "What a pity. I wanted to see that girl Danyang and my aunt have a fight."
One of the staff members said, "It's unusual for the princess to suddenly change the list. I'm afraid Princess Danyang did resort to some trickery, but this time she was more tactful and didn't make a scene. This is really unlike Princess Danyang's temper."
The prince seemed to be thinking about something. "Let's check if there is a new staff member in Danyang's mansion who can give her advice. This time the method is really gentle... I don't believe that Danyang is someone with that personality who would use such a method."
"What are you talking about Princess Danyang?"
The prince and his staff were talking in the palace when a young man's voice came in from outside. There was no need to announce it. The young man entered the palace, strode forward with a dashing demeanor. It was Yang Sanlang.
All the staff stood up and saluted, sighing in their hearts that only Yang Sanlang could enter the East Palace without being notified.
The prince saw Yang Si sitting cross-legged, reeking of sweat, and couldn't help but glare at the young man: "It's fine if you didn't report it, but now you're too lazy to even go back home to wash up? How can you not be so lazy that you die?"
Yang Si glanced at the prince and said, "I have been running around outside for the Ministry of Revenue all night and have not slept a wink. You still want me to wash up? I will probably fall asleep right after I go back home to wash up. Please don't blame me for delaying your Highness's business."
The prince waved his hands in annoyance and signaled the maid to take a towel to wipe Yang Si's sweat.
Yang Si lazily said, "I talked with the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue for a whole night, and he finally agreed to turn a blind eye and let your Highness's people enter the Ministry of Revenue. The old man is almost at the age to resign, and I think he doesn't want to do it anymore, so it's a good opportunity for the Crown Prince."
The prince nodded with satisfaction.
The old emperor had fought with the Jinling Li family before, and finally defeated the Li family and brought them back to Jinling. After the queen passed away, the old emperor aged overnight and lost interest in government affairs. This was the opportunity for the prince to come to the fore.
The prince will replace the people in the court with his own people little by little. When the day comes that the whole court is under his control, that will be the day for the old emperor to become the emperor emeritus.
The staff continued to talk for a while, and when it was time for lunch at noon, they all said goodbye.
Yang Si sat cross-legged on the spot, without moving, obviously planning to have dinner in the East Palace.
The prince glanced at him several times, and seeing that he had no sense of self-awareness, he could only impatiently say, "You can eat, but go change your clothes before coming back."
Yang Si then reluctantly got up and followed the maid to change clothes.
Lunch started, and the Crown Princess specially prepared a dish for lunch with His Highness. Seeing Yang Sanlang was also there, the Crown Princess's eyes twitched, but she was already used to it.
This Yang Sanlang comes to the East Palace too often, so having lunch here is just a normal thing for him.
But during the meal, the Crown Princess, for the Crown Prince's sake, couldn't help but show concern for Yang Si: "Sanlang, you are already an adult, has anyone in your family arranged a marriage for you?"
Yang Sanlang raised his head and glanced at the Crown Princess indifferently.
Before Yang Si could answer, the prince said, "His marriage is decided only by my word."
The Crown Princess could hardly keep the smile on her face and pursed her lips stiffly. She felt that the Crown Prince was too good to Yang Sanlang, and he was simply raising Yang Sanlang as his own son... The key point was that Yang Sanlang was not the Crown Prince's son!
The prince doesn’t seem to care much about his real son!
However, when it comes to marriage, the prince thought of Princess Danyang.
The prince asked Yang Si, "Have you seen your sixth sister during this period?"
Yang Si said very frankly: "No."
When the prince saw him say that and then lowered his head to eat again, he couldn't help but feel very disappointed: "Didn't you ever go to visit her?"
Yang Si was surprised: "Why should I go to visit her? If she really wants to, she should come to visit me."
Prince: “…”
The prince slammed his chopsticks on the table, slightly angrily: "You stubborn ass, you're making me die of rage!"
The Crown Princess next to him trembled with fear, thinking that the Crown Prince was going to get angry. But the Crown Prince calmed down for a while and picked up the chopsticks again.
The prince couldn't help but say: "Eat more vegetables. How can we always eat meat?"
The Crown Princess was wondering: Is Yang San really the Crown Prince's son who was away from home? But he is not the right age, and the Crown Prince cannot give birth to such a big son.
