Carefree Prince In Tang Dynasty

Chen Youlan was a little embarrassed under Li Xin's gaze, for fear that he would notice that there was something wrong with her.

Just now she was writing at home when she suddenly heard Xiao Ling who was out shopping and said that she met Li Xin on the street, saying that Li Xin was walking outside in a daze for some reason, with a terrible expression on his face. Although she didn't want to admit it, she was really worried, so she immediately asked Xiaoling to go out to hold Li Xin back, while she immediately washed off her makeup, changed into men's clothes, and hurried out to keep up.

Could it be that something was not tidied up in a hurry, and it showed its feet?

Chen Youlan thought tremblingly in her heart, but she didn't dare to look around herself, lest she appear guilty and draw Li Xin's attention.

She tried her best to keep calm, and said calmly, "What is King Chu looking at?"

Li Xin laughed dumbly, shook his head, and said, "I didn't see anything."

Seeing that Li Xin's expression was normal, as if he didn't seem to see anything, Chen Youlan breathed a sigh of relief, and said, "Since King Chu didn't bring guards or wear an official uniform, I'll call you Brother Li for the time being. how?"

Li Xin raised the corners of his lips, and said with a smile, "Okay. Since you and I hit it off right away, why don't you call me Your Highness the King of Chu in the future, and just keep calling me Brother Li."

Chen Youlan didn't expect Li Xin to have such an answer, her heart speeded up suddenly as if being hit by something, and then she nodded slightly.

"Brother Li." She tried to say these two words, and then quickly asked, "Where are you going?"

Li Xin froze for a moment, and then recalled the entanglement and hesitation in his heart just now.

The sudden appearance of Chen Youlan and Xiaoling and the undisguised concern on their faces made Li Xin's mood suddenly better, and even the many unanswerable questions in his mind just now disappeared temporarily.

A bright smile appeared on Li Xin's face, and he said, "I was in a bad mood just now, but I'm much better now. I plan to go out of the city and go to the suburbs. Do you want to go together?"

Faced with such a frank invitation, Chen Youlan took a step back subconsciously, and immediately felt a desire to try again from the bottom of her heart. Xiao Ling looked at Chen Youlan nervously, not knowing whether she was afraid of her rejection or her acceptance.

Chen Youlan hesitated for a moment, and finally nodded with a smile: "Since the king of Chu, Brother Li, warmly invites you, how dare you refuse?"

Li Xin laughed and said, "Then let's go!"

The expression on Xiaoling's face stretched, and she nodded vigorously. It seems that what she was afraid of just now should be that her young lady refused Li Xin's invitation.

From the first time she met Li Xin, she had a great affection for Li Xin.

Out of Chang'an City, along the dirt road outside the city, there is a green river flowing not far away. The so-called eight rivers surround Chang'an, which means that there are eight rivers surrounding Chang'an. The ancients believed that water is the vein of the dragon, and it is a good sign to be surrounded by eight rivers. This may also be one of the reasons why the Tang Dynasty set its capital in Chang'an.

Li Xin looked sideways at Chen Youlan from time to time, always with a smile on his face. Compared with the hesitation and pain a moment ago, the difference was too obvious.

Chen Youlan couldn't help asking: "Brother Li, may I ask why you were bothered just now? Can you tell my brother, maybe I can share your worries?"

Li Xin glanced at Chen Youlan, smiled, and said, "It's nothing, I just encountered a little embarrassment, and I don't know what to do."

"I would like to hear the details." Chen Youlan said.

Li Xin had no choice but to say: "I did a very right thing, undoubtedly the right thing. But this incident hurt some innocent people, and their fate changed for no reason because of me. Yong Sei can't turn over again. I feel sorry but don't know what to do."

Chen Youlan tilted her head and repeated: "It is undoubtedly the right thing?"

She immediately smiled and said, "Since it is correct, since you also think that you should do that, why should you feel sorry? If it is because it has affected many innocent people, then try to make up for it as much as possible." Wouldn't it be all right?"

Li Xin was struck by lightning immediately.

correct! Wouldn't it be good to make up for these innocent people?

Damn it, ever since Li Xin heard about what happened at the court meeting today from the censors, he has been in a state of entanglement, entangled in whether his actions are correct or not. In the end, he couldn't figure it out anyway, because he firmly believed that what he did was right, but this kind of behavior objectively caused innocent people to suffer, which seemed very unreasonable from an intuitive point of view.

It wasn't until this moment that Li Xin suddenly realized: Fuck innocent people! He didn't kill the innocent!

The reason why those corrupt officials were found out was because Li Xin handed over the double-entry bookkeeping method and Dashi characters. In this matter, he has undeniable credit. However, the reason why the relatives of these corrupt officials suffered was not because of Li Xin's double-entry bookkeeping method and Dashi writing—in essence, it was Li Shimin's order, and it was the punishment of the Tang Dynasty who would sit at every turn. The system has killed these innocent women and children.

After figuring this out, Li Xin let out a long sigh of relief. However, even after understanding these reasons, he still felt a little sorry for what happened to these innocent people, and finally decided to make up for them.

He thought, after returning home tomorrow, he would go to the palace to see Li Shimin, and plead for those poor women and children.

Li Xin knew that such behavior would look very weird. But so what? He was not a native of the Tang Dynasty. If you want to maintain your detached attitude as a descendant and not be assimilated by the people of Tang, acting like a different kind is simply an unavoidable inevitable outcome.

Li Xin shook his head with a smile, as if laughing at his own stupidity. He said to Chen Youlan: "Thanks to you waking up the dreamer with your words, I was the one who got the picture. Thank you brother Zijin for pointing me out."

"Brother Li, you are being polite. You are already smart, even if I don't tell you, you can figure it out on your own." Chen Youlan also laughed.

Li Xin smiled without saying a word, and said: "In order to thank brother Zijin for his kindness in pointing out the maze, I decided to treat you to a good meal."

"Ah? Are you going back so soon?" Chen Youlan asked subconsciously.

"No." Li Xin shook his head pretentiously, and said, "The delicacy is here."

Chen Youlan looked around in bewilderment—what delicacy can be produced in this grassy suburb?

Xiaoling's round face obviously had the same doubts as her master.
