Since the birth of the crown prince, Kyoto has been immersed in festivities.

This kind of festivity will probably last after the Lantern Festival.

In the days before the New Year Festival and the Lantern Festival, in previous years, the dynasty has always been closed, but this year it is a frequent government decree.

First of all, of course, is the canonization of the crown prince, which is a major event related to the livelihood of all people.

Then, the imperial court announced its assistance to Zhao to help Zhao and defend against Qi.

The formal establishment of diplomatic relations with the armed states, from now on, the two countries are equal and mutually beneficial, which can be regarded as the third major event.

Zhao Yi's abacus was empty, and Yang Yanzhou was about to return in vain.

"This time, I'm afraid I won't be able to send Brother Li."

Yang Yanzhou was going to leave in three days, and Li Yi would stay a few days longer than him.

Li Yi looked at him, shook his head and said, "Isn't it good to honestly guard your Qi Kingdom, you have to toss it like this......"

Yang Yanzhou smiled and said, "Your Majesty often says that a person's life is only a few short decades, and after it has passed, there is no turning back. In this case, you might as well be bold, meet the people you want to meet, do what you want to do, and walk in this world in vain. ”

Why didn't Li Yi discover before that Zhao Yi had the potential to be a philosopher, and he was also a chicken soup philosopher.

That's his business, though.

The empress is not qualified to laugh at an emperor control, what Zhao Yi wants to do, that is his freedom.

He nodded and said, "Then I wish him good luck......

Yang Yanzhou nodded and said: "Your Majesty has been working hard all night since he ascended the throne, and the dragon body has been sick for several months, and he has been infected with the wind and cold for several months, and he has not seen any good, so he accepted Brother Li's good words......

Wei Liang left the day after Yang Yanzhou left.

Both Wu and Zhao have just stabilized their regimes, but the two countries are going in very different directions.

Zhao Yi wanted to enhance the national strength through foreign conquests, and Yang Liuqing took the path of stabilizing Anbang, which was also the plan Li Yi made for her at the beginning.

"When we left, the people in the country were almost at home to Your Majesty, and some big clans in the imperial capital provided great assistance when Your Majesty entered Beijing, otherwise we would not have been able to capture the imperial capital so quickly."

Wei Liang said a word, shook his head again, and said: "However, after His Majesty ascended the throne, those big clans have united and formed a lot of constraints on His Highness......

Wu and Jing Qi are different, when Yang Liuqing revolted, he took advantage of the contradictions between landlords and peasants, gate lords and squires, and fundamentally speaking, it was the interests of those wealthy clans that moved.

In such a historical context, it is impossible for those who occupy a huge amount of resources to be wiped out, and there needs to be a balance between them, and this balance is not so easy to achieve.

Li Yi had already received news a few days ago that Ruyi had gone to Wuguo.

When the matter in Kyoto is over, they will first go back to Ruyi City, stay for a few days, and then go to Wuguo.

Li Yi nodded and said, "In a few days, I will go to the imperial capital to have a look." ”

Wei Liang's face showed joy and said, "Then it couldn't be better." ”

After Wei Liang left, Li Yi also walked out of the small courtyard, and the sound of talking came from the roof.

"Xiaorui, I'm leaving soon, you want to miss me......"

"Father said that when my brother grows up, I will be able to go to you......"

"How old are you when you grow up?"

"Oops, soon......"

"A month?"

"At least, at least a year......"

"Ah, it takes so long......"

"It's been a long time, but by then, we'll all be grown up, why don't you marry me, so we don't have to separate......"

"Okay!"

"What if Uncle Lee doesn't agree?"

"Then, then we'll elope......"

……

Li Yi didn't know that the eldest young master of the Li family had planned to elope with the eldest princess of the royal family, and he came to the palace when he left the palace.

He and Mingzhu stood in front of a palace.

It was a free-standing palace enclosed by a high façade that formed an enclosed courtyard.

In fact, there are not many people living in the palace anymore, Li Xuan and they live in Furong Garden, the Queen Mother Concubine also lives in Furong Garden, and the other concubines of the first emperor are also arranged by Li Xuan in other villas.

The palace has become a cage.

And this palace is a cage within a cage.

In the cage, there will naturally be prisoners.

"Let me out, you traitors, traitors!"

"Rescue, rescue, where is the forbidden army, don't come to rescue the driver!"

"Open the door to me, I want to go to the court, this court can't do without me, and I can't do without Jingguo!"

……

This was a voice that was almost forgotten by Li Yi.

When the king of Shu was captured, his madness was pretended.

Li Xuan locked him here, he didn't have to worry about eating and drinking, and every once in a while, he would send some books in to relieve his boredom, but he couldn't get out of this palace one step.

The door of this temple has not been opened for a long time, except for a small hole at the bottom to deliver food and things.

Li Mingzhu looked at a eunuch in front of him and said, "Open the door." ”

"Yes!" The eunuch took the key from his bosom, inserted it into the keyhole, and opened the lock.

Li Yi stepped forward, covered the temple door with one hand, and pushed it open vigorously.

Squeak......

Soon a heavy, almost decaying sound sounded.

A man sitting in the courtyard of the front hall, disheveled and unkempt, looked like a beggar.

He looked at the open door of the palace in a daze, his face showed ecstasy, and he said with great joy: "Has anyone come to the rescue, when I go out, I will make you the prime minister!" ”

He quickly got up from the ground and ran outside.

Halfway through the run, when he saw the figure in front of the door, his footsteps suddenly stopped, and his face showed an expression of extreme horror.

As if he had seen some man-eating demon, he rushed to the rear faster than when he came, ran into the main hall, and quickly closed the temple door.

"Don't come, don't come!"

Inside the temple gate, a terrified voice was heard.

Li Yi didn't force his way in, although it was very simple for him.

He stood at the gate of the temple for a moment, put a jar of wine in front of the temple gate, and departed with Mingzhu.

I don't know how long it took for the temple door to slowly open.

The king of Shu leaned against the door, picked up the jar of wine, and after being stunned for a moment, he pulled out the wine stopper, raised his head and poured it violently.

The drink poured into his neck, and he looked up and laughed, but there were tears in his eyes.

He slammed the wine jar and said loudly, "I want to see Li Xuan!" ”

……

The king of Shu no longer clamored to be emperor, and walked out of the prison-like palace and into a mausoleum in which he was no longer restricted in his freedom.

It was a royal mausoleum, after Cui Guifei hanged herself, Li Xuan specially allowed her to be buried there, except for the queen and the concubine and the particularly favored concubine, the concubines of the emperors of the past dynasties were buried there.

And where Li Yi is located, is the real imperial mausoleum.

He brought a large jar of wine, a few dishes of side dishes, and a bowl of white fungus lotus seed soup.

The heat of the white fungus lotus seed soup is a little too much, and the white fungus is boiled apart, which affects the taste very much, with Li Yi's cooking skills, there should not be such a mistake.

However, the first meal that the first emperor invited him to eat was this taste.

Changde stood behind him, slightly distracted.

Li Yi also placed a pair of dishes and chopsticks opposite him, but no one sat down.

He smiled and said, "Your Majesty, it took so long to bring wine and food to see you, I hope you don't be embarrassed......"

He opened the jar and poured out the little half of it on the ground.

"Jingguo is getting better and better, it's all thanks to you......"

"Li Xuan, this guy doesn't want to be the emperor, I can't force him, I promised you before, I may not be able to do it......"

"Also, I'll admit you're wise, but you really gave birth to a stupid son......"

"But the daughters born are very good......

……

Li Yi muttered to himself while drinking to himself, and unconsciously, he drank most of the remaining half of the wine.

He was drunk and hazy, lay on the table, and muttered: "No one dares to bring wine here on weekdays, this time you can have a good drink, and I will try to come to see you once ......a year in the future, but don't kick me in my dreams again." ”
