Dynasty Summons: Low-key Hegemony

Chapter 193 Re-election of Princess for Li Yuan

Outside the gate of the imperial city, many eyes saw Emperor Yao happily welcoming King Chu back to the palace. For a moment, Li Yao's attitude declared King Chu's purpose of returning to the capital.

In the imperial study room, Li Yao's hearty laughter sounded from time to time, which showed that Li Yao was really happy.

On the right side of the seat, Li Yao and Li Yuan sat side by side. The two of them leaned slightly, found a comfortable sitting position, and with smiles on their faces, talked about everything from south to north.

"Your Majesty, the Empress and Concubine Lu Gui are asking to see each other!"

Outside the imperial study room, Liu Jin's voice interrupted the eager communication between Li Yuan and Li Yao.

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

"Exactly, the emperor should have not seen them before. The empress is the daughter of Prime Minister Lin, virtuous and dignified, and Concubine Lu is the daughter of Shang Shu, virtuous and virtuous. I will meet these two emperor's wives today."

Li Yao waved his hand, signaling Liu Jin outside the hall to let Empress Lin and Concubine Lu come in.

"I've heard that a good empress and concubine have been included in the harem of the emperor's brother. Unfortunately, my brother is far away in Lingzhou, so I couldn't congratulate him. It happened that Gu also brought gifts for the two sisters-in-law."

Li Yuan smiled gently. 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 back to the capital. There are many younger brothers and sisters in the palace, so he will not miss them, and the gifts from the Queen and Lu Guifei must not be forgotten either.

Who doesn't know how powerful 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 seemed that the fifth brother really cared about him.

After a while, two elegantly dressed women arrived.

"Meet Your Majesty!"

The two women stood in the center, and Concubine Lu Gui was one position below the empress.

The two women's appearances are comparable, the empress shows a faint majesty, her eyes are bright and bright, and she is calm and grand, while Lu Guifei is gentle and quiet.

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

"You guys came just in time. This is the king of Chu whom I often mention, my closest sibling."

Li Yao introduced Li Yuan to the two with a smile. The Empress and Concubine Lu looked at Li Yuan, smiled and bowed slightly.

"I have seen the King of Chu."

"The two sisters-in-law don't need to be too polite." Li Yuan quickly stood up and returned the greeting.

"The younger brother returned to the capital in a hurry, and brought some ordinary gifts. I hope the two sisters-in-law are not suspicious."

The Queen and Concubine Lu's eyes lit up, and they immediately had a good impression of Li Yuan.

Liu Jin took the gift box that Li Yuan took out with good eyesight, and handed it to the two maids behind her.

"Thank you, King Chu."

After the ceremony, several people sat on both sides, so the imperial study room fell into a state of silence.

Li Yao smiled and didn't know what to say. After all, there were some things he could say better than his brothers, and some things he couldn't say in front of his own women.

Li Yuan lowered his head to drink tea, and blew it gently, the hot mist covered his face.

Empress Lin was more imposing, and when she saw that several 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:
"Prince Chu, you haven't married a concubine yet, do you want the emperor's wife to help you introduce one!"

"Cough cough!"

The sudden words made Li Yuan, who was drinking tea, choke.

Li Yuan never expected that the queen would use such tiger-wolf words when she opened her mouth!
"I'm sorry for your embarrassment, but I don't have any ideas yet."

What else could Li Yuan do, dryly refusing.

"That's right, there are still many beauties waiting in the boudoirs of aristocratic families in Kyoto, why don't we help you check it out."

Concubine Lu Gui, who was originally a quiet and virtuous concubine in Li Yuan's eyes, brightened her eyes when she heard that she was going to introduce the concubine to King Chu, and she was extremely interested.

"Uh…………"

"Your Majesty, haven't you been thinking about us all the time, lamenting that His Royal Highness the King of Chu is alone? Why don't we use this opportunity to hold a palace banquet tomorrow to help His Highness the King of Chu choose a beautiful woman!" The queen looked at Li Yao, Glittering.

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

"This..., don't..." Li Yuan just raised his head, and when he was about to express his opinion, Lu Guifei's impatient voice sounded:
"Isn't it too late for tomorrow? What if some young ladies from the noble family go out to play and can't make it in time? In my opinion, it should be held in three days, just enough to allow all the young ladies of the noble family to have time to prepare!"

"My younger brother thinks that the big things should be the most important..."

"Well, my sister is right. I really need to prepare." Empress Lin nodded, with great interest in her eyes.

She likes lively scenes very much, especially introducing the concubine to King Chu!

The nature of a woman explodes.

"Brother..."

"I have a few good friends in my boudoir. They are virtuous and beautiful. They are the daughters of ministers, and they are worthy of the status of King Chu." Concubine Lu Gui has already moved her head closer to Queen Lin, discussing happily.

"Yeah, I also have a good friend in my boudoir, who is beautiful and intelligent, with an elegant temperament, and is a perfect match for the King of Chu!"

"Ahem, two sister-in-laws." Li Yuan's voice became slightly louder.

"My sister is right..."

"That's right, that's the one I said!"

"Sister, I have another..."

"I know, I know..."

Suddenly the imperial study room became chattering, and Li Yuan never had a chance to speak.

It is said that three women play a drama, why are two women so noisy.

Li Yuan was very helpless, and suddenly sighed that the world is very noisy.

"Haha, brother, don't worry. The two sisters-in-law are just out of kindness. You can try it too. In case there is a woman who suits your wishes, it just happens to make the capital lively."

Li Yao persuaded with a smile on the side, "When you return to the capital, there will naturally be a feast for you."

"This is also a little thought from us. 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 Gui who was next to her kept nodding her head, and the lively scene of the banquet was already in her mind.

"Sister, I think..."

Li Yuan opened his mouth, and just about to say something, the two fell into a heated discussion again.

Li Yuan only now understands that when a woman doesn't want to talk to you, she can't say anything.

And it's not easy to refuse.

"I'm sorry, the two sister-in-laws." Li Yuan said helplessly.

"Haha, fifth brother, I tell you, when you were still in the palace..."

................................................

The night was getting darker, the moon and stars were thinner, the pavilions of Lin Xiangfu were lit up, and the bright moon was in the sky, giving people a quiet but solemn beauty.

There is a lake pavilion in Xiangfu, the shore of the lake is clear and clean. In this quiet lake, the moonlight is shining, the fish in the lake are colorful, and the white lotus is surrounded by an exquisite pavilion.

Lin Shufan sat opposite Lu Xun, the stone table was filled with delicacies and a pot of hot tea.

"The king of Chu has really come back!"

Lu Xun showed a hint of surprise, the prince who holds the power in his hand dared to return to Beijing!
I don't know if it's because he is highly skilled and bold, or because he has no second thoughts!
"It's fine if the King of Chu is really loyal to His Majesty, but if not, then the King of Chu is terribly scheming!"

Lin Shufan also admired Li Yuan in his eyes.

Although many people know that it is impossible for Emperor Yao to imprison King Chu in the capital.

But knowing is one thing, doing is another!
Just in case,

What if the situation of the dynasty changes suddenly?

Does King Ming and the Huanzhou Alliance still have hidden secrets?

Did the Huanzhou Alliance suddenly abandon Yizhou to attack Lingzhou?
Very unlikely, but not impossible.

Who would dare to bet like this?
"This also proves that the King of Chu is at ease with his servants and generals." Lu Xun looked up at Lin Shufan with a calm look in his eyes and said in a deep voice:
"You don't know where those people under King Chu come from?"

"I don't know, I have never seen any traces of these people in His Majesty Yuhuang." 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 no one can avoid.

If there are only one or two top talents, it is understandable. After all, Lingzhou has a vast land and abundant resources. It is not surprising that there are a few top talents, but it is impossible for all of them to go under the command of the King of Chu, and one after another, it is not so difficult to have children. Hurry up.

And all of them are so powerful that many people thought it was Emperor Yu's method.

But as the two ministers next to Emperor Yu, they knew more or less about Emperor Yu and had guesses.

"His Majesty Yuhuang is unfathomable. It's not like we can guess, but hasn't Yaohuang found any clues about them?"

Since Lu Xun proposed to let Li Yuan come back, he carefully and repeatedly checked the deeds of Li Yuan's rise in Lingzhou.

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 King of Chu's revealed strength is not scary, what really makes them afraid is whether there are any hidden top talents under the King of Chu's command?

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

Seeing this, Lu Xun shook his head and smiled, then picked up his teacup as well, and said disapprovingly:

"I'm afraid it won't work according to King Chu's cautious temperament."

"If it doesn't work, then it won't work. The King of Chu's return to the capital has already shown his loyalty. Your Majesty should also show respect and hold a feast for the King of Chu. Just let some interested people see it, and kill two birds with one stone!" Lin Shufan put down his teacup , Take it easy.

Lu Xun noticed Lin Shufan's keywords,
Caring people!
Who?
Heng Wang!

The other princes who are away certainly don't want Yaohuang to control the court and keep it safe.

And the king of Chu also hopes?

Lu Xun also put down his teacup and said slowly: "Hengwang seems to have gotten in touch with Yuwang, and got the support of Yuwang staying in the capital."

"Chess pieces and chess players, using and being used, as long as they can achieve their goals, many people will give everything for that supreme position!" Lin Shufan was not surprised.

Since ancient times, the struggle for the throne and the hegemony of the dynasty have been full of shadows, and all kinds of conspiracies and schemes have come out, and the winner is the emperor!
Force has always been the last resort and guarantee, unless you want to crush all the strength, otherwise you will be dragged into the infinite vortex and slowly worn away, because your enemy can't be just one, you and your opponent will kill the other Enemies will get stronger, so you have to keep other enemies out of your way.

"Unfortunately, there are still some veterans who can't see the situation clearly!" Lu Xun sighed.

"Is it because they can't see the situation clearly or are they unwilling to see the situation clearly?"

Lin Shufan sneered, and he also knew that there were ministers under them in the imperial court who were wooed by King Heng.

"For princes, the throne is their biggest attraction, and for courtiers, our seat is also their biggest attraction!
If Yaohuang wins, we can continue to stay in this seat for a hundred years, can they wait, there are talents from generation to generation, they are getting older and will only be eliminated! "

Lin Shufan's voice was very indifferent. There are many capable and courageous people, but this is the only seat!
.........................................................

At the same time, the palace of the eldest princess was brightly lit, with eunuchs and maids standing on one side, and Li Mujun sitting on the throne, looking down on a man standing respectfully in the center below!
Xu Qingshan!
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 the Lin family, whose real name was Lin Tianci, but when he was eight years old, he was brutally exterminated by the Suhou Mansion. Only he was carried away by the last strong man in the family and escaped. Changed his name to Xu Qingshan incognito, and appeared in the Qinglong Academy of Qingzhou during the Dayu Dynasty ten years later. Beijing Academy.

Then stir up the situation!
It's a pity, I didn't expect that the game between the forces of various states and the Zhen Guofu would allow Chu Junyan to enter the capital!

Then it was designed by Chu Qingyan, Yujing Academy failed in the grand competition and was ridiculed all the time.

A failure made the aloof King Xuan give up his training.

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

But in troubled times, who would care about a little Xu Qingshan.

After Xu Qingshan suffered that humiliation, he finally made progress. He stayed dormant at Yujing Academy for a year, and then shined in this Yujing Academy competition, which finally attracted Li Mujun's attention again.

"Xu Qingshan, you have prepared these few days. The arrival of those imperial missions will require some competition. I have won a chance for you from Xiang Yaohuang. Don't let me down!"

I saw Xu Qingshan half kneeling on the ground, with an excited face, clasped his fists in both hands and saluted respectfully:
"Qingshan will live up to your high expectations!"

Xu Qingshan's eyes were filled with fireworks of revenge!
The humiliation of the past made his proud heart completely let go. It is simply impossible for a person to rely on his own strength and talent in this center that symbolizes the power of the Dayu Dynasty!

The road above has been blocked!

No matter how hard he hits, he can't break it!
Only when you are seen and appreciated by the high-ranking big shots, can you have the opportunity to go higher and stronger!

The arrival of the dynasty mission is a unique opportunity to make your name resound throughout the Dayu Dynasty!

Let Yaohuang value the opportunity!

"You have to remember that many aristocratic families are also eyeing this opportunity. They also want their family's favorite son to be famous all over the world. You can stay in the training room these few days without any accidents!"

"Yes!" Xu Qingshan said firmly, he must not make mistakes again!
Li Mujun nodded slightly. Regarding the pissing nature of these aristocratic families, in order to let her family members go up, she knew very well that people like Xu Qingshan who had no strength and no background were selected as candidates. Who did it!
