Li Guo'er gently twisted her waist and looked at the mirror, behaving playfully.
There was a full-length bronze mirror in her residence. The commoner girl's attire was actually far from being gorgeous, but for Li Guo'er, who lived on the Yellow Bamboo Ridge and could only wear her older sisters' old clothes since she was young, a new dress was enough to make her overjoyed. Not to mention, this style and color, to her, was already as beautiful as a fairy's dress.
After successfully deceiving Wu Sansi in the front hall, this young actor returned to the side hall where she lived and hung the jade pendant on her waist in high spirits. She twisted her waist in front of the mirror and admired the effect. Although the jade pendant was precious, it was not a ring pendant worn by a girl. Moreover, she was wearing a civilian girl's dress, so it was very incongruous on her body.
Li Guo'er looked around for a long time and felt that it was not suitable, so she regretfully took off the jade pendant. Just as she climbed onto the couch and hid the jade pendant, Yang Fan's voice came from outside the door.
Hearing Yang Fan's voice, Li Guo'er did not blurt out "Brother Yang" as he had feared. This little girl was far more scheming than Yang Fan had imagined. Although Yang Fan had experienced her fierceness, because of her tender and pure appearance, he often thought that she was too simple. Separated by a door, who knew who was outside, so she would not call out randomly.
Yang Fan spoke very fast, but fortunately, he deliberately lowered his voice. At this moment, on the Dragon Gate Mountain, where the wind was blowing and the cranes were crying, Princess Taiping only thought that he was nervous and did not think much about it.
"Princess Taiping?"
Li Guo'er had naturally heard of this aunt and knew that she was the most favored daughter of the emperor's grandmother. When the emperor's grandfather was alive, he also doted on this daughter the most. It was said that when she got married, the torch even burned the trees along the way. In order to let the spacious wedding carriage pass, she even had to tear down the walls of the square. All of this made Li Guo'er yearn for it.
She quickly got up from the couch and ran quickly to open the door.
Princess Taiping stood in front of the door and looked at the little beauty in front of her.
Her glossy black hair was combed into two buns. Her hair was combed into two large buns, thin, neat, and smooth. After it was combed into two symmetrical buns, a bundle hung down from each side, flowing over her shoulders, all the way to her chest. She was wearing a short jacket with narrow sleeves in light red and dark patterns, and a silk skirt with hundreds of pleated flowers, which accentuated her slim waist.
Princess Taiping's eyes brightened at the sight of those picturesque facial features. Princess Taiping could not help but smile fondly, "You are Bao Er? Mm! As expected of the daughter of my Li Family, she is truly beautiful beyond compare! "
Li Guo'er was also looking at Princess Taiping. The woman in front of her had a noble temperament that made people feel ashamed of their inferiority. Her hair was combed into a high bun. It was a hairstyle that she had never seen before. It looked incomparably complex and elegant. The pearls and golden phoenix ornaments on the bun made her look high and mighty, making people look up to her.
Her long neck, her towering chest, the material was luxurious and bright, the colorful clothes that were so beautiful that it took one's breath away. Everything made Li Guo'er feel suffocated. Princess Taiping looked at her with a smile. Her eyes opened wider and wider, filled with envy.
Princess Taiping smiled and called out, "Bao Er?"
"Ah! Ah ah! Princess! Uh … Aunt … "
Bao Er was stunned by Princess Taiping's mature charm and noble temperament. She could not help but stutter when she spoke.
"That's right, I am Taiping, your aunt!"
Princess Taiping held Bao Er's hand and looked at her from head to toe. The more she looked, the more she liked her. She nodded repeatedly and said, "Beautiful! Beautiful! At such a young age, you have already grown into such a beauty. When Aunt was young, people called me the Peony of Luoyang. But after seeing your beauty today, Aunt cannot be compared to you. Our Li family has produced a peony of the world! "
Li Guo'er blushed from her praise. She said obediently, "Bao Er is only a silly little girl. How can I be compared to Aunt's beauty? When I saw you earlier, Bao Er was stunned. Bao Er is a woman and she is already like this. I wonder how all the men in the world would fall head over heels for Aunt when they see her. If even a fairy-like person like Aunt says that she is old, are there still any beauties in the prime of their youth in the world? "
Princess Taiping was amused by Li Guo'er's words and laughed. She pinched her pink cheeks and said, "This sweet little mouth of yours is especially adorable."
"Aunt, niece, niece, aunt, which side do I belong to? The difference in seniority, the difference in seniority! " Yang Fan watched from the side. He broke out in cold sweat. He saw the two of them talking and laughing. He did not know whether to leave or stand. His throat felt itchy and he could not help but cough.
Princess Taiping thought that he was reminding her not to flatter Li Guo'er. She could not help but roll her eyes at him. She straightened her pretty face and said, "What?"
Yang Fan hurriedly said with a guilty conscience, "Nothing, oh! It's like this. Prince Liang just said that he wants to invite the Prince of Luling to a drink tonight. I am afraid that there is a trap. I hope that Princess will be careful. "
Li Guo 'er looked at the expressions and actions of the two people and thought to herself, "Looking at Brother Yang's appearance, he seems to be very familiar with my Auntie. Auntie doesn't seem to regard him as an outsider at all. Hmm … he is the Emperor's confidant of grandmother's confidant of the emperor's confidant of the emperor. It is normal that he is familiar with my aunt. Although father has returned to the capital, it seems that the Wu family will not let him go. My family will need to rely on brother Yang for many things in the future. Ah! Fortunately, I became his woman. This man … I really want to catch him. "
When Li Guo'er thought of this, she suddenly remembered the beautiful scenery in the Wisteria Cave on the Yellow Bamboo Ridge. She was still young and not very interested in the matters between men and women. She had been rushing about and was often in danger, so she did not have time to think about these things. Now that she suddenly thought of it, her pretty face could not help but blush. When she looked at Yang Fan again, her eyes seemed to be dripping with tears.
Fortunately, Princess Taiping was attracted by Yang Fan's words and did not pay attention to her expression. Otherwise, with Princess Taiping's experience and cleverness, she might have seen some clues.
"You said that Wu Sansi wants to hold a banquet to entertain my elder brother?"
"Yes! I am afraid that it will not be a good banquet … "
"What is there to be afraid of? Wu Sansi's banquet is definitely a Hongmen Banquet. No, we cannot let him have his way. Immediately give the order to prepare a few banquet tables. If he wants to drink, invite him over! "
"Okay!" Standing in front of this beautiful couple, Yang Fan really felt frightened. When he heard this, he felt as if he had been granted amnesty and immediately said: "I will go and arrange it!"
Princess Taiping nodded and said: "Be careful in the kitchen. You must use reliable people and also some clever people to keep an eye on it!"
Yang Fan said: "I know!" After saying this, he hurriedly left.
Princess Taiping turned around and held Li Guo'er's little hand. She smiled and said: "Let's go. Tonight your father is holding a banquet. There are many people coming to the banquet. You are my family's princess. It is not good to wear such clothes. Aunt has a palace in the Dragon's Gate. There are some clothes there. Go and pick some for you."
When Li Guo'er saw Princess Taiping's incomparably gorgeous clothes, her eyes were already shining. When she heard this, she happily agreed. Princess Taiping held her hand and walked with a smile: "Your body is not fully grown yet. The clothes may look a little big. It does not matter. Just make some changes and deal with today's situation."
…
"Yang Fan! Yang Fan! Because of your past achievements, I have been lenient. I did not expect you to be so stubborn. I have already confided in you but you still try to deceive me! That Princess Taiping is Li Xian's sister. She is Yang Fan's mistress. How could she not know the truth of your plan? How could she not recognize her own brother? She is willing to abandon the real Li Xian and come to this Dragon's Gate mountain. If I do not kill you, I am not a human! "
Wu Sansi sat in the palace room that belonged to him. He angrily pounded the table. His face was black and his hair was fluttering. He had already turned into a black-faced Zhang Fei.
His henchmen stood on both sides. When they saw their lord was angry, they could not help but keep quiet out of fear.
Wu Sansi rolled his eyes and shouted: "Ji Zubing!"
"Your subordinate is here!"
A tall and slender warrior with reclining silkworm eyebrows, red phoenix eyes, a square face, scarlet cheeks, a green turban on his head, and five locks of long beard on his chin immediately stepped forward and cupped his fists. Looking at his stalwart figure and appearance, he looked like the Marquis of Hanshou Pavilion, Guan Yunchang. He had the nickname 'Duke of Beautiful Beard'. Unfortunately, he did not use a saber, but a sword.
Wu Sansi said: "Tonight, this prince is holding a banquet to entertain the Prince of Luling. I order you to perform a sword dance in front of the hall to help with the wine. When the time comes, you …"
Ji Zubing was greatly alarmed: "Your Highness, Princess Taiping and Master Yao are here. I am afraid it is inappropriate to do this in front of so many people."
Wu Sansi glared: "Who said I want you to assassinate him?"
Ji Zubing let out a sigh of relief. With a face full of smiles, he said: "It is only a sword dance, why not? This subordinate's swordsmanship has once received a few pointers from General Pei of Chang 'an. Speaking of which, I can be considered half a disciple of General Pei. Back then … "
Wu Sansi impatiently waved his hand and said: "Alright, alright, don't talk about these useless things. When this prince orders you to perform a sword dance, pretend to let go of your sword and kill the Prince of Luling …"
Ji Zubing was shocked: "Isn't that still an assassination?"
Wu Sansi said: "How can it be considered an assassination? A slip! Do you understand? This is a slip! This is his fate, he deserves to be unlucky! As long as the Emperor has an excuse, a way out of this embarrassing situation, who cares if the world believes it or not. She will have to admit that it was a slip. Is she going to announce to the world that her nephew coveted the throne and killed her son? "
Ji Zubing mumbled: "Then … then what happens after the slip?"
Wu Sansi said: "What afterwards? After the slip, he will die!"
Ji Zubing stammered: "This subordinate is asking, what should this subordinate do?"
Wu Sansi raised his hand and threw a wine cup over. Ji Zubing leaned to the side and the wine cup flew past the tip of his nose. His skill was truly not bad.
Wu Sansi roared: "Don't you have legs? After causing a great disaster by mistake, of course you have to escape. Once the matter is settled, won't you come back? When this Prince becomes the Emperor, will you still be short of your contributions? "
Ji Zubing's face was ashen as he said: "The Prince of Luling probably won't fall for the method Liu Xiu used, right?"
Wu Sansi angrily said: "Bullshit! Ignorant and incompetent thing, is this the method Liu Xiu used? This is Liu Bang … this is Xiang Yu … this is Fan Zeng … why am I telling you all this, you cowardly thing! "
Seeing that the wine cup was gone, Wu Sansi picked up the wine pot and threw it at Ji Zubing again. Ji Zubing leaned to the side and dodged it again.
