"Little Lizhi greets Imperial Uncle. I wish Imperial Uncle a long life! Hehe." Princess Changle seemed a little more lively in front of Li Cheng. This was a rare sight to see in front of outsiders.
"Sigh! With Little Lizhi's blessing, This King's body suddenly became much stronger.”Corey doted on her a lot too.
" Oh right, this is..." Li Cheng had been very concerned about Qin Feng, who was standing beside Princess Chang Le. After all, she had never heard of any young man who could chat with Princess Chang Le. Even Princess Chang Le's fiancé, Zhangsun Chong, didn't seem to be able to please him.
This was why even her fiancé couldn't please Princess Changle.
He was even more curious that there was a strange man who could talk and laugh with Princess Chang Le like this.
"This is my friend, Qin Feng…However…" Princess Chang Le felt a little embarrassed. After all, Qin Feng didn't bring any gifts.
"Lizhi, you're here!" At this moment, a handsome man in white walked over and said with a smile.
Then, he noticed Qin Feng beside Princess Chang Le and frowned. Who was this person?
"Brother, you shouldn't be a relative of the imperial family, right? I am Zhangsun Chong, Princess Changle's fiancé! If you don't have an invitation, then I'm sorry, you might not be welcome here.”Zhangsun Chong deliberately emphasized the word 'fiancé' and prepared to invite Qin Feng out.
No one would be able to accept the sight of a handsome man beside their fiancée.
Therefore, Zhangsun Chong was extremely hostile.
Qin Feng could feel Zhangsun Chong's hostility. So he was not married yet?
In history, Princess Changle only married Zhangsun Chong in the seventh year of Zhenguan.
Since that was the case, Zhangsun Chong would never be able to marry Princess Chang Le.
"Zhangsun Chong! He's my friend. What do you mean by treating my friend like this?”Princess Chang Le frowned. She was disgusted by Zhangsun Chong's behavior.
"Beauty…Fine, since you are Lizhi's friend, a birthday gift is unavoidable. Where is your birthday gift?”When Zhangsun Chong saw that Princess Changle wanted to protect Qin Feng, he was even more furious. As her fiancé, he usually ignored her. Now, he was actually protecting an outsider. Who wouldn't be jealous?
"This…" When Li Cheng saw that the situation was about to get out of control, she was about to speak.
At this moment, the housekeeper ran over.
"Your Highness, it's bad. The calligrapher we invited has changed his route because the Turks are guarding a crucial location. He won't be able to make it in time. If he doesn't come, he won't be able to complete the birthday poem and couplets. These are all important ceremonies.”The old butler was sweating profusely.
One had to have sufficient calligraphy and the highest level of cultural knowledge. Otherwise, even a single mistake would be a serious problem.
Therefore, not everyone could replace him.
Generally speaking, it was an old calligrapher with half a foot in the ground who presided over this.
"What should we do? There was no couplet for longevity…Why is there a birthday banquet?" Corey frowned. She was very unhappy.
The ancients valued these rituals very much.
Therefore, the people around them felt extremely heavy when they heard this.
"If your highness doesn't mind, why don't you let Chong-er try it?”Zhangsun Chong felt that this was a good opportunity to perform. Once he did well, he would be able to leave a good impression in front of Prince Li Cheng.
Therefore, Zhangsun Chong was willing to stake everything on this!
"You?" Corey was a little surprised.
"Oh, this king has also heard from the auxiliary machine that your calligraphy is amazing. However, it is quite difficult to complete the couplet of the birthday poem…" Li Cheng pondered for a moment.
"Chong-er is willing to give it a try!" Zhangsun Chong.
When Qin Feng saw this, he shook his head with a smile. The number of people in the Tang Dynasty who could act as a couplet for a birthday poem could be counted on one hand because the strokes and meanings were extremely particular!
There were definitely not many people who could see through it, but Zhangsun Chong was definitely not one of them!
"Good! Someone prepare a brush, ink, paper, and inkstone!" Li Cheng nodded. She could only try her best now.
"I heard that the calligrapher can't come?" Li Ji.
"Can't you see that Zhangsun Chong is preparing to replace that old calligrapher?”Wei Zheng raised his chin.
"Haha, to be honest, my Chong-er's calligraphy has been outstanding since he was young, so it shouldn't be a problem for him to write birthday poems and couplets.”When Zhangsun Wuji saw this, he could not help but feel a little smug.
"Is that so? I don't understand, but I also know a saying, don't be too confident!”Cheng Yaojin couldn't stand this Zhangsun Wuji.
"Heh, what do you crude people know?”Zhangsun Wuji snorted coldly.
At this moment, Princess Chang Le tugged at Qin Feng. Seeing that Qin Feng had been silent, she was afraid that he would get angry.
