Chapter 38: Kynam

The Li brothers' skills amazed everyone, and the atmosphere in the front hall was already extremely lively.

Duan Wuda was very bored. Seeing that the Li brothers were stealing the show, he no longer had the heart to explore Li Silang's archery skills.

After all, Li Er and Li San were both so powerful, how could their brother Li Si be any worse? Maybe he was even more powerful. After all, these two had not yet entered the government, and Li Si was a fierce man who shot and killed a rebel general in the midst of thousands of troops.
Near noon, Li Si, who was playing mahjong with Yu Zhongheng, Wei Guangxia and Cao Fu, met an "acquaintance".

"My dear, please follow me."

This person was the one who asked him to meet King Murong Yang of Wu during the autumn hunting, as well as the young eunuch who left a letter with him yesterday.

When Li Si saw the newcomer, he dropped the hand that was about to win and called Du Bing, who was watching the fun, to play for him. Then he followed the young eunuch and left.

"I have not yet asked this eunuch's name?"

"Your servant Gao Lishi."

"what?"

Li Yuanhui was stunned. This was really a mess. How come Gao Lishi came out?
After Gao Lishi announced his name, he saw Li Yuanhui was surprised but did not react. Instead, he smiled calmly and made a gesture of invitation.

Li Si suppressed his curiosity and continued to follow until he came to the back garden of Gaoyang Wang's house.

There is a pond in the center of the garden, and across the way is a small pavilion surrounded by water on three sides.

A man and a woman were sitting in the small pavilion. The man was wearing a lapel brocade robe and a fu hat. He was sitting by the railing, looking elegant and handsome.

The woman was wearing a pomegranate skirt, which was very popular among the ladies in Luoyang. She was too far away to see her face clearly, and she was sitting quietly on a cushioned stone bench.

Following Gao Lishi around the pond and arriving at the waterside pavilion, the man was none other than Murong Yang, whom he had met once before.

Li Si did not look at the woman, but bowed his head and said, "Greetings, Your Majesty."

Murong Yang stood up, took Li Si's hand and pushed him to the seat opposite the woman, "Silang, we are all family, don't be so nervous, this is my sister, Princess Jinyang, you will be family sooner or later, why are you so reserved."

After getting a definite answer, Li Si slowly raised his head, stood up, and said to the woman opposite: "Greetings, Your Highness."

To be more precise, she was a young girl, the same age as him, less than 15 years old. She had a well-proportioned figure, and when she saw Li Yuanhui stand up, she also stood up. She was about 1.6 meters tall, just a little shorter than Li Si now.

She has a very delicate appearance and her makeup is also very delicate, just like a porcelain doll. Maybe because of her Xianbei ancestry, her facial features are very three-dimensional.

The eyebrows were long and beautiful, and the eyes were delicate and graceful, seeming to be both affectionate and solemn. There was a plum blossom painted between the eyebrows. The whole picture made Li Silang think of only one word: the beauty of the country.

"No need to be polite, sir. Please take a seat."

"Thank you, Your Highness."

Although the beauty of the little princess in front of him was the most beautiful thing Li Si had ever seen in his life, he had good self-control. After all, he had been baptized by short videos and did not do anything rude.

After sitting down, Li Yuanhui didn't know how to start, and Murong Jiayin, who was sitting opposite him, didn't know what to say either.

The result was that the two of them were stunned for a long time, and then they spoke at the same time: "You" "I"

This scene made Murong Yang very happy, "Hahahaha."

Then, Murong Jiayin took the round fan to cover her eyes while Li Yuanhui lowered his head, then turned her head to look at Murong Yang and glared at him fiercely.

This glance immediately made His Royal Highness the King of Wu, who was laughing recklessly, stop talking immediately, and said while suppressing his laughter:

"Silang, you will be leaving for the war in a few days. I have a good horse from the Western Regions. I will have someone send it to you tomorrow. By the way, Wuji wants to talk to me about something. I'm going to go out for a while. You two can chat slowly."

Feeling that the situation was not good, His Royal Highness the King of Wu decided to leave first, otherwise he would have to laugh again, and his sister would not let him have an easy time when he returned to the palace. Before Li Yuanhui could refuse, the King of Wu waved his hand and left.

So the only ones left in the small pavilion were the engaged couple, and the situation seemed even more awkward.

Li Yuanhui raised his head and looked at the girl opposite him again. She was dignified and bright, with a jade-like luster on her fair face.

Murong Jiayin noticed Li Yuanhui's scrutiny and blushed a little. Then she asked, "Why are you looking at me, my dear?"

"Your Highness doesn't look at me, how do you know that I'm looking at Your Highness?"

Li Yuanhui took direct action and defeated magic with magic.

After saying this, they both laughed at the same time.

When the girl smiled, her face was full of smiles. "Don't call me Your Highness Your Highness anymore. I am the third child in the family. You can call me Sanniang. You can also call me by my nickname, Jialuo, which means agarwood in Sanskrit."

"what?"

Li Yuanhui was stunned. Gala?
Murong Jiayin saw Li Silang across from her stunned, and consoled him: "You and I are already engaged, it's okay."

"Um, hello, Galo?"

When the girl heard Li Yuanhui calling her nickname, she smiled sweetly and two dimples appeared on her cheeks, making her look extremely cute.

Li Yuanhui was still in shock. Of course, it had nothing to do with the archer with special skills. Because the empress of Emperor Wen of Sui was called Jialuo, Dugu Jialuo. She was very famous.

And my future wife is also called Jialuo? Is this a joke?
"By the way, I don't know your name yet, Your Highness, Jialuo."

"Jiayin, Murong Jiayin."

The two chatted, a bit like a man and a woman meeting for the first time. There was a little awkwardness and alienation at first sight, but they got closer and closer.

On the other side of the wall, Murong Yang and Murong Wuji, who were both uncle and nephew and cousins, were secretly observing the two of them through the gap.

"It's really scary. How come Jinyang looks different than usual? Yes, we are two people. She has never spoken to me in such a nice tone before."

Murong Yang said in a low voice with indignation.

Murong Wuji smiled from behind and said nothing. Of course, he also noticed that Princess Jinyang was a little abnormal from usual.

He was born into a royal family, served as a palace guard, and often attended the emperor. He was also the cousin of Princess Jinyang and the cousin of King Wu, so the relationship was very close.

Naturally, he was very clear about the princess's temperament.

With just one word from this prince, he had to run across half of the southern part of the city to host banquets from house to house. How could he be easy to get along with?
But to say that she has a bad temper is not true.

A certain censor once said in a memorial to the sage that the sage was wise enough to stop the criticism and eloquent enough to cover up the mistakes. In this respect, Her Royal Highness the Princess basically followed the sage.

Smart, very smart. And eloquent, able to refute a group of princes speechless.

She was also extremely generous, and even Empress Cao, who had always been at odds with Concubine Wei, loved this princess.

There were more than one or two Xianbei noble families who were eyeing this princess. I really don't know how Li Silang won the princess's favor.

Could this be what Aye meant by deep blessings?
