Outside the gate of the imperial city, many eyes saw Emperor Yao happily welcoming the King of Chu back to the palace, and for a while, Li Yao's attitude announced the purpose of the King of Chu's return to Kyoto.

In the imperial study, Li Yao's hearty laughter sounded from time to time, indicating that Li Yao was really happy. On the right side of the seat, Li Yao and Li Yuan sat side by side, their bodies slightly tilted, and they found a comfortable sitting position, smiling, talking about everything from south to north, and there was a feeling of returning to their youth.

"Your Majesty, the queen and Concubine Lu ask to meet!" Outside the imperial study, Liu Jin's voice interrupted Li Yuan and Li Yao's eager exchange.

Li Yao frowned, faced Li Yuan's smiling face, patted the desk, and said a little carelessly: "Oh, fifth brother, I originally planned to visit the Imperial Garden with the Empress and Concubine Lu today, but when I learned that you arrived in Kyoto today, I forgot about them for a while. ”

"It just so happens that the royal brother should not have seen them yet, the queen is the daughter of Lin Xiang, virtuous and dignified, and Concubine Lu is the daughter of Shangshu, virtuous and virtuous, meet these two imperial sisters-in-law today." Li Yao waved his hand and motioned to Liu Jin outside the hall to let Empress Lin and Concubine Lu in.

"I heard that the imperial brother's harem included a virtuous queen and a good concubine, but unfortunately the younger brother was far away in Lingzhou and could not congratulate him, and it happened that Gu also brought gifts for the two imperial sisters-in-law." Li Yuan smiled gently, and although he was a little surprised by the arrival of the queen and Concubine Lu, he calmly took out two exquisite gift boxes from his sleeves.

Before leaving, Li Yuan prepared a large number of gifts to return to Kyoto, and there were many younger brothers and sisters in the palace, so he naturally would not miss them, and the gifts of the queen and Lu Guifei could not be forgotten.

Who doesn't know how strong the pillow wind is. More gifts are guaranteed!

"Oh? The fifth brother has a heart! Li Yao watched Li Yuan take out the gift, and his smile became more sincere, it seems that the fifth brother has indeed taken himself to heart.

After a while, two richly dressed and elegant women arrived.

"Meet Your Majesty!" The two women stood in the center, and Concubine Lu owed a position to the queen. The two women are comparable in appearance, the queen has a slight sense of majesty, her eyes are bright and bright, calm and atmospheric, and Concubine Lu is gentle and quiet.

After Li Yuan glanced at the two of them, he immediately shifted his gaze.

"You have come at the right time, this is the King of Chu that I often mention, my closest sibling." Li Yao smiled and introduced Li Yuan to the two, and the queen and Concubine Lu looked at Li Yuan, smiled and bowed slightly.

"I've seen the King of Chu." Read the book

"The two imperial sisters-in-law don't have to be polite." Li Yuan hurriedly got up and saluted back.

"The younger brother was in a hurry to return to Kyoto, and brought some ordinary gifts, I hope the two imperial sisters-in-law are not suspicious." The queen and Concubine Lu's eyes lit up, and they suddenly had a good impression of Li Yuan.

Liu Jin still had the eyesight to take the gift box that Li Yuan took out and handed it to the two maids behind him.

"Thank you, King Chu." After the salute was over, they sat on both sides, and the imperial study fell into a quiet state.

Li Yao smiled, he didn't know what to say, after all, some things could be said more than his brother, and some things could not be said in front of his own women.

Li Yuan lowered his head to drink tea, blowing gently, and the hot mist blocked his face. Queen Lin was a little more imposing, and when she saw that a few people were about to fall into an embarrassing situation, she looked at Li Yuan with a smile, and said as soon as she opened her mouth: "King Chu, you haven't married a concubine yet, do you want the imperial sister-in-law to help you introduce one!" ”

"Ahem!" This sudden words made Li Yuan, who was drinking tea, choked. Li Yuan never thought that as soon as the queen opened her mouth, it was this kind of tiger and wolf words!

"With Emperor Lao's sister-in-law concerned, the younger brother doesn't have any ideas yet." What else could Li Yuan do, he refused dryly.

"Yes, there are still many beauties in Kyoto, so let us help you check it." When Concubine Lu Guifei, who was originally very quiet and virtuous in Li Yuan's opinion, heard that she was going to help King Chu introduce the princess, her eyes lit up and she was extremely interested, she didn't care what Li Yuan said, and said by herself.

"Uh............"

"Your Majesty, haven't you always been thinking about us, lamenting that His Royal Highness the King of Chu is alone, why don't we take this opportunity to hold a palace banquet tomorrow and help His Royal Highness the King of Chu choose a beautiful woman!" The queen looked at Li Yao, and her light flickered.

"It just so happens that the King of Chu is in Kyoto!"

"This ......, you can't ......," Li Yuan just raised his head and was about to express his opinion, when Lu Guifei's impatient voice sounded: "Isn't it too much of a hurry tomorrow, what if some ladies of the family go out to play and can't catch up, in my opinion, it should be held in three days, just enough to give all the ladies of the family time to prepare!" ”

"The younger brother thinks that the big things should be the priority......"

"Well, my sister has a point, and you really have to be prepared." Queen Lin nodded, with a lot of interest in her eyes.

She likes the lively scene very much, especially to help King Chu introduce the concubine! A woman's nature exploded.

"Brother ...... Emperor"

"I have a few girlfriends, they are virtuous and beautiful, they are all the daughters of ministers, and they are worthy of the status of the king of Chu." Concubine Lu's head had already approached Queen Lin, discussing happily.

"Well, this palace also has a friend who is waiting for the word boudoir, who is beautiful and wise, has an elegant temperament, and is very compatible with the King of Chu!"

"Ahem, two imperial sisters-in-law." Li Yuan's voice was slightly louder.

"My sister is right, but it's the ......"

"That's right, that's right, this palace is the one he said!"

"Sister, I still have a ......"

"This palace knows and knows......" Suddenly the imperial study became chattering, and it was not at all an opportunity for Li Yuan to speak.

said that three women are in one play, why are two women so noisy. Li Yuan was very helpless, and suddenly sighed that the world was very noisy.

"Haha, don't worry about the royal brother, the two imperial sisters-in-law are just a kindness, you can also try, in case there is a woman who meets your heart, it just makes Kyoto lively." Li Yao smiled and persuaded on the side,

"When you go back to Kyoto, you will naturally have a feast for you."

"This is also a little bit of our heart, King Chu, you have brought us gifts, do you want us to return the gifts?" Empress Lin stopped talking and said with a smile on her face, Concubine Lu next to her kept tapping her head, and she already thought of the lively scene of the banquet in her mind.

"Sister, I think it......" Li Yuan opened his mouth, and just as he wanted to say something, the two of them fell into a heated discussion again.

Li Yuan only now understands that when a woman doesn't want to pay attention to you, she can't say anything. And it's hard to refuse.

"There are two imperial sisters-in-law." Li Yuan said helplessly.

"Haha, fifth brother, I told you that you used to ...... when you were still in the palace................................................ The night is getting deeper, the moon and stars are scarce, the pavilions of Lin Xiangfu are lit up, and the bright moon is in the sky, giving people a quiet but solemn beauty.

A lake pavilion in Xiangfu, the shore of the lake is clear and clear, in this quiet lake, the moonlight flickers, the swimming fish in the lake are purple and red, and the white lotus flowers are clustered around a delicate pavilion.

Lin Shufan and Lu Xun sat opposite each other, and the stone table was full of snacks and delicacies, and a pot of hot tea.

"The King of Chu is really back!" Lu Xun showed a hint of amazement, the prince who held the power in his hands dared to return to Beijing!

I don't know if he is bold or bold, or if he is really unique!

"If the King of Chu is really loyal to His Majesty, it's okay, if not, then the King of Chu's scheming is terrifying!" Lin Shufan's eyes also showed admiration for Li Yuan.

Although many people know that it is impossible for Emperor Yao to imprison the King of Chu in Kyoto. But it's one thing to know, it's another to do!

I'm afraid of what if, what if the situation of the dynasty suddenly changes? Is there still a secret between King Ming and the Huanzhou Alliance? What about the Huanzhou Alliance suddenly abandoning Yizhou to attack Lingzhou?

The odds are slim, but it can't be said that there isn't. Who would dare to bet like that?

"This also proves that the King of Chu is at ease with his subordinate generals." Lu Xun's eyes were calm, he looked up at Lin Shufan and said in a deep voice: "You don't know where those people under the command of King Chu came from?" ”

"I don't know, I have never seen His Majesty Emperor Yu have any traces of these people." Lin Shufan shook his head slowly.

Looking at the deeds of King Chu's unification of Lingzhou, the outstanding people under his command are the attention that everyone can't avoid. If there are only one or two top talents, it is understandable, after all, Lingzhou is rich in land and resources, and it is not strange that there are a few top talents, but it is impossible for all of them to go to the command of King Chu, and they pop up one after another, and they don't have children so quickly.

And all of them are extraordinary, many people think that they are Emperor Yu's means. But as the two ministers next to Emperor Yu, they have more or less some understanding of Emperor Yu and have some guesses.

"His Majesty Emperor Yu is unfathomable, isn't it something we can guess, but Emperor Yao hasn't found out their clues?" Since Lu Xun proposed to let Li Yuan come back, he seriously checked the deeds of Li Yuan's rise in Lingzhou repeatedly.

found that if you want to control the King of Chu, or investigate his details, you must find out where the King of Chu recruited these talents.

Now the strength revealed by the King of Chu is not terrible, what really makes them jealous is whether there are still hidden top talents under the command of the King of Chu who have not appeared?

"That's why we need to send a close person to the King of Chu." Lin Shufan picked up the teacup and took a sip.

Seeing this, Lu Xun shook his head and smiled, also picked up the teacup, and said disappreciably: "I'm afraid that according to the cautious nature of King Chu, I'm afraid it won't work." ”

"If it doesn't work, it won't work, the King of Chu can return to Kyoto, he has already shown his loyalty, and His Majesty will also show grand treatment and hold a feast for the King of Chu, just so that Fan can put down the teacup and say unhurriedly. Lu Xun noticed Lin Shufan's keyword, someone with a heart! Who? King Heng! The other princes who were outside definitely didn't want Emperor Yao to control the court and be stable. And the king of Chu doesn't want to? Lu Xun also put down the teacup and said slowly: "King Heng seems to have made contact with King Yu and obtained the support of some dark chess pieces that King Yu left in Kyoto. ”

"Chess pieces and chess players, use and be used, as long as the goal can be achieved, for that supreme position, many people will do everything!" Lin Shufan was not surprised.

Since ancient times, the struggle for the throne and the hegemony of the dynasty have been full of shadows, all kinds of conspiracies and tricks, and the winner is the emperor!

Force is always the last resort and guarantee, unless you want to crush all the strength, or you will be dragged into the infinite whirlpool, slowly consumed, because your enemy cannot be just one, you and the opponent will wear out, the other enemies will become stronger, so you must let the other enemies not intervene.

"It's a pity that there are still some old ministers who can't see the situation clearly!" Lu Xun sighed.

"Are they not able to see the situation clearly or are they unwilling to see the situation clearly?" Lin Shufan sneered, he also knew that there were ministers in the court who were under them who were co-opted by King Heng.

"For the princes, the throne is their biggest attraction, and for the courtiers, our seat is also their biggest attraction! If Emperor Yao wins, we can continue to stay in this position for a hundred years, can they wait, there are talents from generation to generation, they are getting older and older, and they will only be eliminated! Lin Shufan's voice is very indifferent, there are many people who have the ability and courage, but there is only this one seat!

………………………………………………… At the same time, in the palace of the eldest princess, the lights were brilliant, the eunuchs and maids on both sides stood on one side, and Li Mujun sat on the main seat, arrogantly looking at Xu Qingshan, who was standing respectfully in the center below!

Li Mujun's face was full of arrogance, and he glanced at Xu Qingshan, who was very excited. Xu Qingshan used to be the eldest son of a Lin family, his real name was Lin Tianci, but at the age of eight he was tragically exterminated by Suhou Mansion, only he was carried away by the only remaining strong man in the family and escaped, and later in order to escape the pursuit, he changed his name to Xu Qingshan, and appeared in Qingzhou Qinglong Academy of the Dayu Dynasty ten years later, and then pretended to be forced all the way, and was worshiped by a group of students and sisters, so that King Xuan noticed him, and successfully came to Yujing College in the capital two years later.

And then stir up a storm! It's a pity, I didn't expect the game between the forces of various states and the Zhenguo Government to let Chu Junyan enter Beijing!

Then it was designed by Chu Qingyan, and Yujing Academy failed and was ridiculed. A failure made King Xuan, who was high above, give up his cultivation.

Because there has never been a shortage of people like Xu Qingshan under King Xuan, it was just an idle move before, which made Xu Qingshan disgusted and disgusted King Ming.

But when troubled times come, who will pay attention to a small Xu Qingshan. After Xu Qingshan was humiliated by that time, he finally made progress, hibernate in Yujing Academy for a year, and then shined in this Yujing Academy competition, which finally attracted Li Mujun's attention again.

"Xu Qingshan, you are ready in the past few days, the arrival of those dynasty envoys is indispensable, this palace has won a chance for you to Emperor Yao, don't let this palace down!" I saw Xu Qingshan half-kneeling on the ground, his face was excited, and he clasped his hands into fists and saluted respectfully: "Qingshan will live up to the high expectations of adults!" Xu Qingshan's eyes were full of fireworks of revenge!

The shame of the past made his proud heart completely let go, and it would not work at all if a person wanted to rely on his strength and talent in this center that symbolized the power of the Dayu Dynasty!

The road above has been sealed! No matter how hard he fights, he can't break it! Only when you are seen and appreciated by the big people on top can you have the opportunity to go higher and stronger!

The arrival of the dynasty envoy is a peerless opportunity to let your name resound throughout the Yu Dynasty! An opportunity for Yaohuang to value!

"You have to remember that many families are also staring at this opportunity, and they also want their family's pride to be all over the world, you can stay in the cultivation room with peace of mind these days, don't have any accidents!"

"Yes!" Xu Qingshan said firmly, he must not make any more mistakes! Li Mujun nodded slightly, for the urine of these families, in order to let her family go up, she knew very well that a person like Xu Qingshan, who had no strength and no background, was selected for the candidate, and when he walked on the road in the middle of the night, he didn't know who did it when he broke his leg!
