As soon as I entered the street gate of Zhao's mansion, I saw that the lights everywhere were as lively as the New Year, sweeping away the bad luck caused by Zhao Boyong's funeral in the past six months.

Wei Youqing and Li Taoyao got out of the carriage, and after saluting each other to Zhao Feifei, who was welcoming guests at the door, Zhao Feifei whispered a few words to his second uncle Zhao Bochang beside him, and personally took him into Zhao's mansion.

The further he walked inside, the more Wei Youqing felt that the atmosphere in the house was much colder than the colorful lights at the door. The bustle at the door was just a group of idlers watching the excitement to eat, but many of the people who should have come did not come.

Wei Youqing sneered softly, secretly thinking that the Zhao Mansion was still holding on to the previous shelf, and arranging a birthday banquet was the same as the New Year, but after all, this time is different from the past, Queen Zhao and Zhao Boyong are gone, who will come to muddy the waters?

Just as he was thinking about it, a young voice came from a distance: "Sister Taoyao! Sister Taoyao! ”

Following the sound, I saw a young man running towards him, his black and shiny hair tied with white ribbons, a snow-white robe, fair skin, long eyebrows and sideburns, slender and gentle eyes, and a straight nose, like a jade man made of flawless jade. It was Zheng Bingde.

In the blink of an eye, Zheng Bingde had already run to Li Taoyao's side, regardless of so many people by his side, he picked up Li Taoyao, and spun in circles, shouting while turning in circles: "Good sister, good sister, I finally see you again." ”

Zhao Feifei's face sank, and he hurriedly shouted: "Ade! Put down the princess! Why are you still playing as if you were a child! Marquis Wei is here, and he hasn't come to see him! ”

Zheng Bingde seemed to have just seen Wei Youqing, hurriedly put down Li Taoyao, straightened his clothes, and saluted Wei Youqing very respectfully.

Li Taoyao was turned around by Zheng Bingde a few times, and was put down by him suddenly, she couldn't help but feel dizzy for a while, her stomach turned over and over, and she couldn't help but hold on to an old tree next to her and vomit.

Honggu hurriedly came over and patted Li Taoyao on the back, but Li Taoyao couldn't wait to spit out all the bile, and finally spit out a mouthful of blood before it stopped.

Seeing this, Zhao Feifei couldn't help complaining about Zheng Bingde: "Ade! How can you be so reckless! ”

Seeing Zhao Feifei complaining about Zheng Bingde, Li Taoyao hurriedly turned around and waved his hand and said, "Don't blame Ade, I've been like this recently, and it will be fine after a while." ”

Zhao Feifei said apologetically to Wei Youqing: "The three of us brothers and sisters have grown up together since childhood, and we are used to fighting, so Hou Ye is not strange." ”

Wei Youqing just smiled and said, "This kind of friendship is also very valuable, how can Youqing mind." ”

Zhao Feifei smiled at this time and invited Wei Youqing to the banquet specially set up for officials and guests in the front hall.

Another servant invited Wei Youqing's entourage to another banquet, Li Taoyao glanced at the group of people intentionally or unintentionally, and found that the man had gone somewhere. Looking back at the girl he brought, the woman was gone.

Mi Li'er and Mi Tuan'er quietly fled in place as early as the noise of everyone when Zheng Bingde came just now, one went to the front hall, and the other went to the backyard.

The purpose of their trip was to draw an accurate map of the Zhao Mansion to facilitate the next move of the Praetorian Guards. Today's Praetorian Guards are no longer the Praetorian Guards when Li Chengyu first entered Luoyang City, and they are all replaced by Li Chengyu's personal guards brought by Xia Zhengsu.

Li Taoyao whispered to Honggu: "The girl who came out with us just now is gone." ”

Honggu said in a low voice: "As soon as you enter the door, they will disappear, look at the slaves, let's leave them alone, they are not ordinary people." ”

Zheng Bingde saw Li Taoyao and Honggu bowing their heads and whispering, but the Xuewa he saw in the Grange that day was nowhere to be seen, and said with a smile: "This girl has seen it below, where is your sister?" ”

Honggu snorted coldly in her heart, and said quietly: "My sister's kung fu practice is not enough to get home, and Master Hou feels that she is not worthy of following the princess, so let our sister accompany her." ”

Zheng Bingde was afraid of Xuewa, so he asked this question, but Honggu saw through his intentions and deliberately made words to scare.

Zheng Bingde looked at the woman who was following behind Li Taoyao, and didn't know whether what Honggu said was true or false, so he smiled disguisedly and asked Li Taoyao and his party to go to the back hall.

The two chatted while walking, and Li Taoyao asked Li Anxi: "This is my grandmother's birthday, I wonder if my aunt has come?" ”

Zheng Bingde shook his head and sighed: "Mother has been in poor health recently, and she is being raised at home, and it is too noisy here, so she won't come." ”

Li Taoyao asked with concern: "I don't know what disease my aunt has?" Have you ever asked a doctor to see it? Youqing's medical skills are excellent, if your aunt allows it, let Youqing go and show her aunt. ”

Zheng Bingde shook his head and said, "No need, my mother hired a famous doctor in Jiangnan, and I got much better after taking his medicine." Coincidentally, he is here today, Sister Taoyao, according to Ade, you don't look good, why don't you ask this doctor to take a look. ”

Li Taoyao listened to Zheng Bingde's meaning, but he actually looked down on Wei Youqing's medical skills, and he was displeased, bit his lip and said, "Ade, you may have heard about some sisters." ”

Zheng Bingde said: "What's the matter?" Immediately, he seemed to suddenly realize, "Sister Taoyao is referring to the fire in the palace?" ”

Li Taoyao said: "Yes, you also saw it just now, I am very weak now, that is, a half-life person." If it's not for the young youth, I'm afraid that my life will be gone. ”

Zheng Bingde understood what Li Taoyao meant, this sister was actually complaining that she despised Wei Youqing's medical skills.

He hurriedly explained with a smile: "Sister, don't talk about that, now that my sister is so young, and with the careful care of Marquis Wei, she will definitely get better." Ade recommended this doctor, also thinking that it would be good to have one more person to show his sister. ”

Li Taoyao turned her anger into joy at this time, but she did not say anything about Zheng Bingde's words.

Zheng Bingde saw that Li Taoyao did not agree, nor was he reluctant, and said with a smile: "Ade heard that Hou Ye Wei dotes on his sister very much, and His Majesty also relies on Hou Ye Wei very much. If you have the opportunity, you will ask my sister to say more kind words, and Ade also wants to do more for the court. ”

When Li Taoyao heard Zheng Bingde say this, she was secretly happy in her heart, but she concealed her anger: "What are you talking about? If you want to serve the court, the court will consider it, and my sister will just pass on a word for you. My sister and Youqing are not married, where is it said that they are spoiled or not? ”

Zheng Bingde agreed again and again, thanked him again, and the two entered the door of the inner house together, and turned a rockery, and gradually the voices of people were boiling, and there were warblers and swallows everywhere, and the sound of ringing bells was endless.

When I went to Mrs. Zhao's hall first, there was already a middle-aged woman waiting there at the door, but it was the wife of Zhao Feifei's second uncle, Zhao Bochang.

Although Mrs. Zhao is already a sixty-year-old man, she is in good spirits and has a ruddy complexion. Li Taoyao saw her grandmother and hurriedly knelt down to celebrate her grandmother's birthday. was pulled by Mrs. Zhao.
