Chapter 668

When Li Shiyuan waved, Mu Zhihua stood up and said slowly, "emperor, I have discussed with the house of internal affairs about the birthday of the Empress Dowager. Is that ok?"

In the imperial study, there was a soft voice of conversation.

……

——

Kiko embroidery house, Kyoto.

When Mu Cen and Li Shiyuan entered through the back door of the shop, shopkeeper Wang was already waiting there, and Li Yan's two sisters, their eyes were red when they saw Li Shiyuan and Mu Cen.

This day, waiting too long.

"I have seen the fourth master and his wife." Shopkeeper Wang knelt down and asked for an.

Li Yan two sisters also knelt down: "I have seen the fourth master and his wife."

"Get up, please." Mu Cen held the two sisters in a hurry.

And Li Shiyuan looked at shopkeeper Wang: "get up, shopkeeper Wang, these days, hard."

"I don't work hard. It's natural that I work for the fourth master." Shopkeeper Wang said directly, "I've been waiting for the fourth master to come back. That's great."

Li Shiyuan made a sound.

Shopkeeper Wang did not hesitate, and soon settled Li Shiyuan and Mu Cen.

Then, shopkeeper Wang talked to Li Shiyuan about this year's events. He also felt very sad.

"One year after the emperor ascended the throne, I'm ok. After all, I've hidden a lot. All the famous shops, without exception, have been forced by Li Shiyuan to take a lot of things to the Treasury. But even so, Li Shiyuan is still not satisfied with the situation. He's very heavy in taxes and levies. Our revenue is not very good this year."

Shopkeeper Wang frowned: "not to mention those small shops. They can't live at all. Many people just muddle along."

……

What shopkeeper Wang said is similar to what Li Shiyuan heard.

This is also the main reason why Li Shiyuan lost the popular support step by step.

"So it's the best time for you and your wife to come back. Mr. Mu had already explained to the slave before, and the slave had arranged it. Several adults in the palace have arranged it. Just wait for the fourth master's order. " Shopkeeper Wang gave a detailed account of the arrangement.

Li Shiyuan nodded.

"Outside Kyoto, people are all talking about the fourth master's return to Beijing, and the slaves let people release the news. They put the news on Li Shiyuan, saying that Li Shiyuan had tampered with the imperial edict. If the news goes out, it will make the next thing more right."

Shopkeeper Wang is a person brought out by Li Shiyuan. He is loyal to Li Shiyuan. Without Li Shiyuan, shopkeeper Wang can arrange it safely, and there is no need to explain.

So Li Shiyuan has nothing to worry about.

"Hard work." Li Shiyuan nodded with satisfaction.

Shopkeeper Wang doesn't think it's hard: "as long as the fourth master can fulfill his wish, I'll be satisfied with what I've done."

After that, shopkeeper Wang calmed down and asked Li Shiyuan, "when is the fourth master going to start?"

"Empress Dowager's birthday." What Li Shiyuan said is direct.

Shopkeeper Wang was surprised: "isn't that the future?"

"Exactly." Li Shiyuan gave a positive answer.

Shopkeeper Wang soon calmed down: "in this case, I have to arrange some things now to ensure that the fourth master can enter the palace safely. On the other side of the palace, Mr. Mu's subordinates are still there. They are loyal to Mr. mu, and our shadow guards have been lurking in the palace for a long time... "

Li Shiyuan made a sound.

Mu Cen didn't speak and listened quietly.

Mu CEN is clear about his tacit understanding with Li Shiyuan. On the birthday of Qu Huashang, Li Shiyuan will not dodge, but will attack when the people in the palace are most relaxed.

This is what they have arranged for a long time.

And the shopkeeper Wang and Li Shiyuan said countermeasures, almost foolproof.

Everything is ready except the east wind.

This east wind is the birthday of Qu Huashang.

……

——

In utero.

Because of Li Shiyuan's return to Beijing, the atmosphere in the palace was very low these two days. It was not until the day of the Empress Dowager's birthday that the atmosphere in the palace eased.

Qu Huashang's birthday, because it was the first year of Li Shiyuan's accession to the throne, was extremely grand and luxurious.

In addition, Qu Huashang's personality is very popular. Under such circumstances, he can't help but be elated and show off. Even Li Shili and Dai Zhigu, who have been demoted outside Kyoto, are allowed to return to Beijing.

The purpose of Qu Hua Chang is obvious. She wants to be in front of Dai Zhigu, let Dai Zhigu look, who is the last person to smile.

So Dai Zhigu and Li Shili went back to Beijing.

It is natural to live in the palace when returning to Beijing.

But when they enter the palace, they are not allowed to bring anything or anyone except their minions, which means that Dai Zhigu and Li Shili have no threat.

Even in the palace, but also be staring at, let them play no tricks.

And the palace, because of Qu Huashang's birthday, also appears particularly busy.

The slaves came back and forth. The troupe and the dancers were strictly censored before they could enter the palace.

Dai Zhigu and Li Shili sat quietly in the previous palace, watching the slaves outside busy, Dai Zhigu's face is not good-looking.

Li Shi Li calmed down and comforted Dai Zhigu: "since you are not happy, why didn't you find a reason to refuse? If you really refuse, the Empress Dowager doesn't dare to do anything to you."

"Li'er, she wants the palace to look at her. How can the palace refuse. As long as there is a breath in the palace, she will let the palace in. She will embarrass the palace with her luggage. " Dai Zhigu knew Qu Huashang too well. "If it wasn't for the foundation of Dai family, I'm afraid that when the emperor ascended the throne, Dai family would have been destroyed."

Qu Huachang's ruthlessness, Dai Zhigu is more clear: "this time into the palace, I'm afraid it's a lot of bad luck."

Li Shi Li was silent: "my mother, you are worried too much. I don't think that's the case. "

Dai Zhigu's tea drinking hand pauses and looks at Li Shili.

In the past year, after Li Shiyuan ascended the throne, the Dai family has been gradually deprived of power, which can't be compared with the original scenery. Now the Dai family has no advantage in front of Qu Huashang, and Qu Huashang can't tolerate Dai Zhigu any more.

Even if it's far away from Kyoto, she won't allow it.

So this time Qu Huashang let Dai Zhigu come back, I'm afraid there is such a purpose. Dai Zhigu had to think more.

"She's not that easy." Li Shi Li said quietly, "and this birthday, I'm afraid it's not stable."

Now, Dai Zhigu looks at Li Shili.

Li Shi Li lowered his eyebrows and said, "the fourth brother has returned to Beijing. Does the mother know the news?"

"Li Shiyuan?" Dai Zhigu thought about it before returning to his mind, "when Li Shiyuan and Li Shiyuan competed for the throne, Li Shiyuan was defeated and almost lost his life. Now I can still come back, and I have two brushes. "
