Yuzhou City.
The Chinese New Year is getting closer, and many wanderers who have gone out to find a living or study are coming back one after another to reunite with their families.
In Li Mansion, before sunset every day, Li Wanwan would wait outside the house for a while, hoping that his children would surprise him and suddenly appear in front of him.
However, every day's hope will eventually turn into disappointment.
The mother is worried when her son travels thousands of miles, and so is the father.
Each of the three children of the Li family is more outstanding than the other. Each one of them is Li Wanwan's heart, but it's a pity that none of them are around.
At another sunset, in front of the house, Li Wanwan withdrew his gaze from a distance, looked slightly gloomy, and turned back to the house.
"master."
At this time, in the courtyard, the old housekeeper quickly stepped forward, handed over a letter, and said, "A letter from the capital."
When Li Baiwan heard this, he immediately took the letter, opened it and read it.
The content of the letter mainly describes in detail what happened in the capital these days.
After the serious business was over, at the end of the letter, there was a lot of gossip written in a lengthy manner.
"Dad, everyone will go back to Yuzhou to celebrate the New Year. Remember to prepare new year's goods."
"Little Red Riding Hood will also go back together, along with Huanzhu. Remember to prepare a few more red envelopes."
"There is no news from my second brother yet, but we have already agreed before that no matter how busy we are during the Chinese New Year, we will go home."
"Dad, my second brother is now old enough. It's time to start a family. Remember to urge him when the time comes. By the way, don't say what I say, otherwise, I will never be done with you."
The letter had several pages and was a series of rambles, but Li Wanwan was not impatient at all and read it carefully word by word.
"master."
On the side, the old housekeeper looked at the master in front of him and asked expectantly, "Is the young master coming back?"
"Well, I'll be back just after the New Year!"
Li Wanwan came back to his senses, grinned, and responded, "Old Yao, remember to buy more New Year's goods these days, especially the things that Xiao Ziye likes to eat. You must prepare them all, otherwise, he will definitely look for trouble."
"good!"
The old housekeeper nodded excitedly and said, "Old slave, I'll do it now."
After saying that, the old butler turned around and left to prepare.
"The brat knows how to give his father problems."
After the old housekeeper left, Li Baiwan looked at the letter in his hand and complained. The fat on his face trembled when he smiled, which was very funny.
However, Qingzhi's life-long events do need to be considered.
I have a headache.
Qingzhi's true identity is hidden from the light, and this matter is not easy to arrange.
I don’t know what Qingzhi thinks.
Xiao Ziye is such a brat that he didn't dare to ask, so he pushed the job to him.
After thinking for a moment, Li Baiwan walked toward the backyard with the letter.
Forget it, let Youwei ask about this.
As the eldest daughter in the family, it is reasonable for her to worry about her younger brother's lifelong affairs.
Just as Li Wanwan began to prepare for his children to return home.
Great commercial capital.
Three days have passed since the eldest prince's rebellion, and everything is gradually getting back on track.
In the past three days, the capital has been in turmoil, and all forces dare not act rashly for fear of taking the wrong path during this sensitive period.
Even several Martial Kings have chosen to stay in seclusion for the past three days to avoid the limelight.
"Bai'er."
In Weiyang Palace, Queen Changsun was peeling hazelnuts while reminding her, "Take time to go to the Mansion of the Commoner Prince in the next two days. The current situation of the Commoner Prince is not good. You should go and have a look. After all, he is also here to help you."
"My son, I know."
Mu Bai nodded and responded softly.
"I can't figure it out."
On the side, Murong looked at the hazelnuts on the plate, frowned slightly, and said, "How did Li Jiaoxi convince the commoner king to side with his brother?"
Now that I think about it, the feud between the Li family and the Buyi King, as well as Li Jiaoxi's poisoning, were all part of their plan. Their purpose was to deceive the world and the eldest brother.
The far-reaching layout of this game is truly terrifying.
"My mother has not fully figured it out either."
Empress Changsun said softly, "If we hadn't known that this game was set up by Jiaoxi Li, it would have been impossible to think that there could be cooperation between King Buyi and Jiaoxi Li."
In everyone's eyes, the opposition between the Commoner King and the Li family has reached the point of tit-for-tat. Who would have thought that there would be cooperation between them.
"Brother, when you go to the Prince's Mansion, remember to call me. I will go with you to test the Prince's tone." Murong thought for a while and said.
"Tomorrow." Mu Bai responded.
"tomorrow?"
To the southwest of the palace, Mu Jin was stunned for a moment after hearing the prince's words, then nodded in agreement and said, "Okay, I will send someone to deliver the greeting card."
After saying this, Hibiscus stood up and left, preparing to pay her respects.
In the room, Mu Wenqing sat in front of the brazier, looked at the fragments on the table, and continued to annotate with his pen.
King Rakshasa could kill Hades in the palace, so he should have been prepared for it.
strangeness.
Where did the information about King Rakshasa come from?
Where is the Confucian leader?
Outside the room, the afterglow of the setting sun was shining, and the day gradually passed.
The commoner's palace, the backyard.
For three days in a row, Li Ziye barely left the courtyard. Even Nan'er was picked up and dropped off by Yu Qingxuan.
For three days, Li Ziye did not practice sword practice anymore, but kept writing something in the room.
"Brother Li."
In the room, Xiao Xiao sat at the table, looking at the letters one after another on the table, and asked in confusion, "Why did you write so many letters? I think a lot of things have been arranged until after the new year."
"Be prepared first in case of emergencies."
Li Ziye replied while writing, "I may have to leave for a while. Huanzhu has not grown up enough and cannot handle it alone. I must help her make arrangements."
"leave?"
When Xiao Xiao heard this, he was stunned for a moment and said in surprise, "Where are you going?"
"Don't ask any more questions."
Li Ziye responded calmly, "You can learn as much as you can from what I wrote. I don't have time to teach you at the moment."
"All right."
Xiao Xiao curled her lips, held her chin with both hands, and continued to read and learn.
"Your Majesty."
At this moment, Yu Qingxuan's voice sounded outside the room, reporting back, "His Royal Highness the Fourth sent someone to send a greeting card. Come and visit tomorrow."
"knew."
"Room," Li Ziye replied without saying anything more.
"Brother Li, Prince Wen is going to visit Li Yuan tomorrow, and now the fourth prince is coming too. Where are you going?" Xiao Xiao asked.
"Li Yuan." Li Ziye replied.
"What should the Fourth Highness do here?" Xiao Xiao asked doubtfully.
"You and Huanzhu deal with it."
Li Ziye responded, "This is a small test for you two. Be careful. The Ninth Princess is smart and not so easy to deal with."
The next day.
Li Yuan, Prince Buyi, Prince Wen, and Mu Bai arrived almost at the same time.
In front of Li Garden, Li Ziye personally received them and led Prince Wen and Mu Jin into the main hall.
"Professor Li."
In the main hall, Mu Wenqing looked at the young man in front of him and said in appreciation, "It's a wonderful scene. I have not waited in vain for more than a month."
"Your Majesty is overly praised."
Li Ziye smiled and said, "It's just a small fight, but I am more interested in this game arranged by the prince."
"Li Jiaoxi, although I don't want to say something, I still want to remind Li Jiaoxi."
Mu Wenqing looked at the person in front of him and said seriously, "If what I am planning fails, Li Jiaoxi's life will be at risk. Therefore, Li Jiaoxi must think carefully."
"There is no long-term victory in a chess game."
Li Ziye said softly, "Since a rich man like the prince dares to take risks, I can only risk my life to accompany the gentleman!"
