Chapter 99 Li Yuan's Exploration

"His Royal Highness, the saint has left the palace."

"When? Where did you go?"

"At the end of the day, I left the palace, and my whereabouts are unknown."

"Chen Shi? Go and invite Xian Ma Wei Zheng to come."

"Here."

At the same time, Qin Wang Li Shimin also got the news at about the same time, and he immediately called his cronies to discuss.

"Your Majesty hasn't left the palace for half a year, so I don't know what's going on today." Changsun Wuji pondered.

"Dare to ask Your Majesty, has any major event happened in recent days?" Fang Xuanling asked.

"No." Li Shimin shook his head.

"This is difficult." Fang Xuanling said in a dilemma.

"The Sacred Heart is unpredictable. Now the purpose of the saint leaving the palace is not important. The important thing is to find him quickly to avoid accidents." Du Ruhui said.

Everyone looked at Li Shimin, and without hesitation, he said decisively: "Okay, let's do what Keming said."

Not only the crown prince and the king of Qin, but also well-informed people have known the news that the emperor left the palace in micro-clothes.

Li Yuan is the emperor who attracts everyone's attention, and his every move is followed by others.It was a trivial matter for the founding emperor to leave the palace, but it still shocked countless people.

The officials in Wannian County and Wannian County in Chang'an immediately became more conscientious, and the policemen also put away their fierce expressions and smiled at everyone before they spoke.

The rich and powerful have also begun to restrain their own people not to go to the streets when they have nothing to do, and even if they do go to the streets, they must be humble and low-key.In case of a conflict with someone, you must maintain an attitude of resignation.

And those most sensitive people of all religions and nine streams didn't know what happened, but they also sensed that something serious happened, and hid in the mouse hole one by one.Even those who don't open their eyes are quickly sanctioned by the iron fist of justice.

When Yue Shan came out of Qin Qiong's house, he clearly felt that today's Chang'an City was different from the past, it was much quieter and more peaceful.But he didn't care, he just thought it was his own illusion.

It was still early, so he wandered around Chang'an City, and bought some daily necessities to go back.

When they reached a restaurant, a white-faced, beardless middle-aged man blocked their way.

"May I ask if your Excellency is Yue Shan, the baron of Longshou Mountain?" The man said in a soft and sharp voice.

"Who?" Ma Busi and the others stood in front of Yue Shan and asked vigilantly.

"Exactly, I dare to ask your Excellency what you are looking for?" Yue Shan shuddered, patted Ma Busi on the shoulder to signal them to relax, and asked.

"My family, Alang, wants to invite Baron Yue to have a cup of tea." The white-faced man pointed towards the restaurant beside the street.

Yue Shan looked up and found an old man in his fifties with a goatee holding a wine glass and gesturing to him at the window on the second floor of the restaurant.

He also responded with a kind smile, and then said: "Okay, I'm tired from walking too, so I just went up to have a rest."

"Da Lang, the identity of the visitor is unknown, it's better to be careful." Ma Busi reminded.

"It's okay, this is at the foot of the emperor in Chang'an City, no one dares to touch the baron conferred by His Majesty here." Yue Shan said indifferently.

Hearing this sentence, a satisfied smile appeared in the eyes of the white-faced man.

Seeing what Yue Shan said, Ma Busi and the others didn't try to persuade him, they just asked to go upstairs with him.Before the white-faced man opened his mouth, Yue Shan refused again and asked them to rest downstairs, while he himself went upstairs.

Sure enough, as he thought, only the old man was drinking alone on the huge second floor, and this made him more sure of his guess.

"Baron Yue, it's not surprising that you take the liberty to invite me." The old man said with a pleasant face.

"It should be Yue who thanked the old man for his kindness." Yue Shan laughed.

"Haha...you are very good at talking, sit down." The old man laughed.

Hearing that Yue Shan sat down opposite the old man, he sized him up with undisguised eyes.

His not-so-handsome face, thin and lightly pursed lips, sharp-edged silhouette, slender and tall but not rough figure, especially the aura of a superior person emanating from his body, clearly tells everyone that he is an extraordinary person.

Yue Shan, who was sitting opposite him, felt that he was facing a fierce tiger.

The old man should seldom be looked at like this. He was a little uncomfortable at first, but he quickly got used to it and let Yue Shan observe him openly.

After Yue Shan finished his observation, he said with a smile: "It is said that Baron Yue is a child of a fairy. I don't know what I can see from this old man."

"The old man is a noble man, with good fortune and longevity." Yue Shan said flatteringly.

"Haha... What a cunning little thief, any fortune teller on the side of the road can see what you said. And he can see it more accurately than you, and his words are more pleasant than yours." The old man laughed.

"Hehe... what does the old man want me to see?" Yue Shan asked back.

"Look who I am, if you can figure it out, I'll give you a lot of money." The old man's face changed when he said this, and he said coldly: "If you can't guess it, I will interrupt you both." a leg."

Yue Shan was startled, cold sweat drenched the back of his clothes.Swallowing a few mouthfuls of saliva forcibly, suppressing the violently beating heart, he said in a dry voice: "I'm not good at learning and haven't mastered the ability to read faces. Why don't I write a word?"

"Want to test characters? Okay." The old man agreed without hesitation, and after thinking for a while, dipped his fingers in the wine and wrote the word "carp" on the table.

After seeing clearly what word he wrote, Yue Shan pretended to be mysterious and closed his eyes, but his brain was spinning rapidly thinking about how to connect this word with Li Yuan's identity.

Yes, this old man is Tang Gaozu Li Yuan, the founding emperor of the Tang Dynasty.

Yue Shan had never met Li Yuan, but he had seen his portrait in Qin Wangfu, so he had already recognized him downstairs.That's why he agreed to go upstairs without letting Ma Busi and others follow.

He thought that since he was a time traveler, he should be able to face the founder of Great Tang with a detached attitude.After all, it was the first time he met Li Shimin, who was even more famous, and he could play freely.

However, he didn't realize how naive he was until he was in front of Li Yuan.Compared with him, Li Shimin at this time is like a harmless cub.

Regardless of Yue Shan's calm surface, his heart was already in a mess.Facing an emperor who decided life and death with one word, the traverser's confidence seemed so weak.

Li Yuan's appearance was too sudden, without any warning, and he was not given any time to prepare.He didn't know whether today's meeting was specially arranged by Li Yuan, or whether it was just a chance meeting.

If it is the latter, it is easy to deal with.However, considering that the two have never met, the first possibility is more likely.

So what is Li Yuan's purpose in coming to see him?
Now that he finally knows, Li Yuan is here to confirm whether he, the son of a fairy, really has special abilities, or if he is just a fake tiger.

When Li Yuan asked him to look at his face, he almost couldn't help but directly said 'you are the emperor', but the last trace of reason stopped him.

Answers that are too easy to get will make people doubt whether they are true or false.

If his identity was revealed so easily, then he would definitely suspect that Yue Shan already knew his identity.Once doubts arose in his heart, he would definitely continue to question him. Yue Shan, a fake son of a fairy, would [-]% let him through.

There is no need for any kind of cross-examination, just point out a guard and let him guess.

Yue Shan knew that he must use the fastest method to win Li Yuan's trust.

Then it is necessary to make guessing the identity a little more complicated, the more complicated and mysterious the more trustworthy it will be.How to design this step?
Yue Shan's brain was running at an unprecedented speed, and he quickly thought of a good solution - adding a word test link.

Why take a word test?Because knowing the answer in advance, no matter what character Li Yuan wrote, he could associate it with the identity of the emperor.

If it were another trick, he might not be able to play it well.

Li Yuan wrote about carp's carp, which is unexpected and reasonable.

What needs to be considered now is how to associate the word 'carp' with the emperor.

The homonym of Li is Li, but it is too hasty to determine Li Yuan's identity based on just one surname, and a more complicated and more glamorous interpretation method is needed.

Carp... Carp... Carp leaps over the dragon's gate, and the carp leaps over the dragon's gate.

Yue Shan was so happy that he almost jumped up, but luckily the danger of breaking his leg made him restrain his emotions.Don't be in a hurry, don't be in a hurry, victory is right in front of you, don't be in a hurry, and think of a suitable prophecy.

What is the use of this prophecy?

　This plot should be a small climax in the setting, but the pen is not strong enough, and it has been revised several times without writing the desired feeling.

　　I can only send it out as I can, and it will probably take several days for Calvin to struggle further.

　　I'll try to write it again when I have time later, that's all for the time being.
