The film and television world begins with the battle for the throne in Kowloon

Chapter 601 Princess Changle
Li Yan waved his hand nonchalantly: "Why should we care about the decorum between uncle and nephew? Let whoever wants to say something go ahead."

Changsun Wuji shook his head helplessly, but there was joy in the depths of his eyes.

What cannot be said openly is that Changsun Wuji quite enjoyed the feeling of being so close to his nephew the Crown Prince. In addition to considerations of benefit, he also felt a bit more family affection in his heart. In this way, as they laughed and joked, the relationship between uncle and nephew became more appropriate.

Although Changsun Wuji pretended to curse, he did not avoid Li Yan nor push him away. The wrinkles on his face were stretched out by his smile. Seeing the scattered ministers in the distance secretly looking in his direction, Changsun Wuji felt very comfortable.

The relationship between the prince and me is very good, and it is useless for you people to be envious and jealous.

"My uncle's mansion just received a batch of lambs yesterday. Today, the King of Shu and his men are returning with great honor. The Emperor will definitely host a banquet for them."

"We can't have a chance to attend the emperor's banquet to celebrate his achievements, but we can't treat ourselves badly. Call Ankang later and go to my uncle's house, where we'll have a lamb feast." Through this conversation, Changsun Wuji realized that Li Yan was not just being silly and pretending to be generous. He also let go of the burden in his heart, stopped thinking about those troubles, and invited Li Yan to his home.

Li Yan laughed even more happily, stretched out his hand and pulled the long beard on Changsun Wuji's chin: "You old thing, you lied to me that my family would never buy lambs again. Why didn't you tell me earlier that you had something good? I'll go call Ankang now."

"You little bastard, you are so old, and you still dare to scold your uncle? I will tear your mouth apart." Changsun Wuji's beard was pulled so hard that it hurt. He jumped up and down and slapped Li Yan's hand. Hearing Li Yan's unreasonable words, he immediately raised his foot and kicked Li Yan on the butt.

"Uncle, go back and get ready. I'll go call Sister Ankang."

Li Yan made a face, took a step, and ran to the harem, saying loudly as he ran: "Oh, by the way, I have a few servants in the palace, call them over later. There are more than ten people, and one lamb is not enough. Ask my aunt to prepare a few more dishes."

"This little bastard!"

Zhang Sun Wuji looked at Li Yan running away, listened to the voice in the air gradually disappearing, smiled bitterly and shook his head: "After all, he is still a twelve or thirteen-year-old child, and he has no manners."

At this moment, the Crown Prince, who had just been strategizing and full of wisdom, became lively and cheerful again at this age, which made Changsun Wuji a little dazed. However, this nephew who was sometimes serious and sometimes cheerful and lively could be so lively and cheerful.

It is also very fascinating that Changsun Wuji, as an uncle, enjoys the feeling of being both a favorite and a family member.

Watching the prince's figure disappear deep into the palace, Changsun Wuji turned around, put his hands behind his back, took slight square steps, hummed a little tune, and slowly walked out of the Taiji Palace. Even the guards at the palace gate and the servants who came to pick him up from court could feel Changsun's good mood.

At noon, Li Yan, accompanied by ten servants, rode on horses and escorted a luxurious horse, and arrived at Changsun Wuji's mansion located in the southeast corner of Chongrenfang.

Changsun Wuji's family had been waiting for this for a long time. Although he was a nephew, he was still the crown prince no matter how close they were. Even if Li Yan didn't mind, he still had to be treated as the crown prince. Otherwise, if it got to the emperor and the court officials, they would say he was arrogant and domineering without distinguishing between the noble and the humble, and old Changsun would be in big trouble.

As for if Li Yan came with a small entourage and broke into the mansion directly, that would be a different matter. For such a visit with an advance appointment, etiquette must not be neglected.

After receiving the notification, Changsun Wuji and his eldest son Changsun Chong came out to meet them.

Li Yan did not use the prince's ceremonial guards. He wore the same moon-white robe as the ten attendants. Looking closely, Li Yan's robe was faintly embroidered with silver cloud dragon patterns, which were not too conspicuous. The others were wearing casual clothes when they usually read books in the Chongwen Hall.

They were all young men, mixed together. At first glance, people who were not familiar with them would not be able to tell which one was Li Yan. Some were older than Li Yan, and some were younger than Li Yan.

Except for Li Yan, other young men had swords on their waists, some had short knives in their hands, and some had spears in their hands. Xue Rengui was even more exaggerated. He actually had a longbow and a tube of arrows on his back.

Li Yan wanted to let them come empty-handed because they were carrying all kinds of weapons, but Xue Rengui thought that they had the duty of guarding the prince. If the prince was uncomfortable with this, they could go back to the barracks and put on the guards' armor, which would make them look more formal.

After Xue Rengui's reminder, everyone felt a little ashamed. During the one month in the Eastern Palace, everyone got along so well with each other that these young boys almost forgot their duty to guard the prince, and they all expressed their desire to carry weapons.

There were already quite a lot of people in the group, and Li Yan didn't want to start the prince's carriage as that would make too much noise, so he agreed.

However, Li Yan was still very satisfied with Xue Rengui's dedication and diligence. Xue Rengui's family fell into poverty when he was young, and he had suffered a lot. He had also seen the fickleness of human nature and was relatively mature. He was indeed better than others.

"I, Changsun Wuji, and my family are here to see the Crown Prince and the Princess!" Changsun Wuji and his eldest son came to pay their respects. Li Yan stepped forward to help Changsun Wuji up. On the carriage next to them, the palace maid lifted the curtain, and a 10-year-old girl in pink and white slowly got off the carriage with the help of the guards. She smiled slightly, revealing a beautiful smile, and said softly, "Uncle and cousin, you don't have to be polite. They are not outsiders, so there is no need to be polite!"

Changsun Wuji was stunned. He thought it was Princess Ankang, but unexpectedly it was the younger Princess Changle.

Princess Changle is the biological daughter of Empress Changsun. She is only ten years old this year. Unlike Princess Ankang, who is naughty and lively and has a head full of clever ideas, Changle has become gentle, virtuous, quiet, well-educated and well-mannered under the guidance of Empress Changsun. She is kind-hearted, clever and cute at a young age.

Changsun Wuji also liked this princess more in his heart. When he saw Princess Changle, he hurriedly bowed again, then extended his hand to invite the princess into the mansion. As soon as he stepped through the door, Changsun Wuji's wife came to greet him with a smile on her face.

As a female member of the family, it was not appropriate for Mrs. Changsun to show up in public, so she had been waiting inside the gate. She knew in advance that the princess was coming, so naturally it was necessary for the female members of the family to receive her. If she really stayed in the back house or the living room, it would seem too neglectful.

So he entered the mansion through a gate, just one step away, and skillfully performed the etiquette without appearing disrespectful.

It can be seen that a century-old family is indeed extraordinary!

Of course, if the emperor or empress came, everyone in the mansion would naturally go out and kneel to welcome them.

Madam Changsun and her maid came forward, bowed slightly, then reached out to hold Princess Changle's hand, smiling kindly: "Changle, your mother is finally willing to let you out. It's not easy for you to come to your aunt's house to play for a day, but you must stay longer before returning to the palace. Your aunt has prepared a lot of delicious food and fun things for today!"

"Well, thank you, aunt!"

Little Changle smiled like a silver bell: "Knowing that you are coming to your uncle and aunt's house, and with your brother the Crown Prince, my mother is very relieved."

"Let's go to the backyard. Some time ago, my aunt found some fine Shu brocade. Let's take a look. If you like them, go back to the palace tonight and bring two back to show your mother. The weather is getting hot. Make clothes for my nieces."

"Thank you, aunt!"

"Silly girl, why are you being so polite to your aunt?" The two of them chatted and laughed, and were accompanied by a group of beautiful girls from the maids into the back house, leaving Changsun Wuji and Li Yan outside.

Changsun Wuji gave Li Yan an apologetic smile, took two steps forward with Li Yan, and said in a low voice, "Didn't you say Ankang? Why did you bring Changle here?"

Li Yan hinted some time ago that he wanted to bring Princess Changle and Changsun Chong together. Changsun Wuji was confused about the situation, so he gave a slight eye signal and asked about it. If Li Yan had really told the Queen Mother about it, then Princess Changle's purpose of coming to the palace would be different.

The Changsun family must respond and not let the woman take too much initiative.

Li Yan looked at the servants behind him, who were being entertained by Chang Sunchong, and complained quietly, "I don't know where Ankang, that crazy girl, went this early in the morning. I went to her palace but found nothing. I also didn't see her at my mother's place."

"I guess she went out of the palace to play. Changle happened to be accompanying my mother. When she heard that I was going to my uncle's house, she insisted on coming with me. My mother thought that Changle was not a child anymore and had never been out of the palace, so she asked me to bring him out."

At this point, Li Yan took Changsun Wuji and walked a few quick steps, whispering, "Uncle, I mentioned that matter to my mother last time, and she had no objection, but she said that Changle is too young, and my father and mother want Changle to spend more time with them. We'll talk about it again in two years when he's older."

"Anyway, the Queen Mother knows the matter well. Changle will always be kept for you and will not be given to anyone else. You can rest assured!"

"Well, I was thinking, let's bring Changle out first, let her meet Cousin Chong, get familiar with each other, and build a good relationship. Then, when we bring up this matter later, it will be a natural thing to do."

In fact, in Li Yan's opinion, Ankang and Changsun Chong are quite a good match. They are about the same age. In terms of personality, Changsun Chong is gentle, while Ankang is lively and lively. One is gentle and the other is strong, which is a perfect match.

Unfortunately, on the one hand, he had a system task and Ankang was already taken; on the other hand, although Changsun Wuji also liked Ankang, it was hard to say whether he liked Ankang's personality or because Ankang was favored by Li Shimin.

But in short, Changsun Wuji had no intention of letting Ankang be his daughter-in-law, so Li Yan had no choice but to give up!
In addition, Li Yan also had some regrets. All of these princesses of Li Shimin were beautiful and charming. It was only because he traveled through time and space and became Li Chengqian that these princesses, more beautiful than flowers, would be his. How could they be others' turn?
