Datang: Only by resisting the decree can we become stronger

What she is worried about is that she is afraid that the night will be long and dreamy, and there will be mistakes and twists and turns in the middle.

After all, there is only one wish in her heart, and that is to marry into the Furong Garden as soon as possible, so that she can fix her own destiny.

What was touching was that Brother Li Qiu loved and cared about him so much.

As a girl, this is already the happiest thing.

In the evening of this day, when Li Qiu returned to the Furong Garden, a housekeeper who was absolutely confidant of a certain senior official had already asked to see him.

After going around a lot, he pleaded for his master, asking Li Qiu to help write the second couplet.

When Li Qiu heard this, he readily agreed, saying that there was no problem, and he would write it tomorrow morning.

Just get your pen, ink, paper and inkstone ready.

But hearing what he said, the other party was immediately dumbfounded.

Then Zhizhiwuwu said, see if you can accommodate me, my lord, and secretly give us the second link, and sell my lord a face.

As long as you can keep it secret, my lord, we are absolutely sincere about the hard work and pen and ink spent in this process.

Li Qiu understood it as soon as he heard it.

Said that this matter is easy to handle, as for the ink money, the ones in my Furong Academy are relatively expensive, ten taels of gold per word.

This is the price for everyone, no one is cheating, you can buy it or not.

In fact, in Li Qiu's heart, he has long been waiting for their arrival.

How could he miss such a good opportunity to make a fortune?

Chapter 198 The Supreme Emperor About to Run Away?who will put out the fire

After hearing Li Qiu's asking price, the butler's pupils visibly dilated several times.

Twelve taels of gold for one word?This is too outrageous.

After he resigned, he went back and told his master the price.

The master of his family was also furious, and even dropped several vases.

"This despicable merchant, how dare he do this?!"

After them, many mysterious people came to visit one after another.

Li Qiujun gave the same answer, with a very good attitude. If you want to make a second line and keep it secret, every word is worth it.

Just like this, Li Qiu couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.

In the past, Lu Buwei was worth a lot of money, but now he is a hundred times worse when he is here, which is really embarrassing.

And the reactions of these people are mostly similar.

Apart from scolding Li Qiu behind his back, there is no other way.

The next day, according to the traditional etiquette process, Li Shimin and Empress Changsun personally led the important officials of the court to meet the Supreme Emperor.

Then put on a big banquet.

But today, on the occasion of the new year, the Taishanghuang inevitably had many complicated emotions and memories of the past.

So his face is very bad.

Now he is not afraid of and cares about Li Shimin's face.

In his heart, there is probably such an emotion:

You have imprisoned me here, what else can you do with me?

kill me?You dare?

Seeing that the atmosphere at the scene was getting worse and worse, Li Shimin couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

This year is the first year that he ascended the throne as the crown prince by dishonorable means.

If he was ridiculed by the Supreme Emperor today, or even scolded, he would be recorded in the daily records by the historians and passed on to future generations.

In ancient times, the status of historians and history books was very detached.

The purpose of their existence is also a function of spurring, motivating, and warning the emperor.

Especially Li Shimin, can be said to be the emperor who valued his reputation in later generations the most in history.

At this critical moment, Li Shimin took a break and ordered to go down and quickly call that Li Qiu to me!

When Li Qiu arrives, the banquet in Da'an Palace will begin.

The Supreme Emperor sat there with a cold face, Li Shimin and Empress Changsun also looked unhappy, a little sad.

As for the officials below, they felt even more uncomfortable than Li Shimin.

This is splint gas, which made the hall so quiet that they didn't even raise their heads.

One could only hear the slight sound of the palace ladies who were sweating on their foreheads as they served everyone nervously.

At that time, the Tang Dynasty still had a meal-sharing system. Everyone sat on the ground (more like something similar to a tatami mat), with a small table in front of each person.

There is also order.

Seeing that the banquet was about to begin, and it was the New Year's Eve, in front of the important ministers, there was such an atmosphere again, Li Shimin frowned, feeling very displeased.

At this moment, Li Qiu finally arrived.

As soon as they saw him, for some reason, the sorrow in Li Shimin and Empress Changsun's hearts faded a lot in an instant.

Attention was also diverted to Li Qiu's side.

"Li Qiu!"

"This is about to start a banquet, why did you come?!"

If it were someone else, hearing Li Shimin's accusation that seemed to imply anger, he would definitely be trembling with fright, kneeling down and begging for forgiveness.

But Li Qiu was quite familiar with Li Shimin's style, so he could tell that even if he was angry, it wasn't against him.

What's more, I rushed here as soon as I received the notice, which is considered fast.

Of course, he still has to do the paper on the surface.

Then he bowed and replied respectfully: "Return to Your Majesty, this time I was delayed for a while because there were too many gifts to honor the Supreme Emperor."

"Please forgive me, Your Majesty."

As for Li Shimin, he snorted, "For the sake of your filial piety, I will spare you this time."

As he said that, from the corner of his eye, he sneaked a peek at the Supreme Emperor.

Since Li Qiu appeared, the gloom on the Supreme Emperor's face has obviously improved.

This also made Li Shimin secretly glad that he called Li Qiu in time.

Otherwise, it will be really troublesome.

At this time, the Supreme Emperor Li Yuan smiled and waved to Li Qiu, "Li Qiu, come and sit beside me."

Seeing what the Supreme Emperor said, Li Shimin and Empress Changsun seemed to acquiesce again, and then someone added a table for Li Qiu beside the Supreme Emperor.

You know, in this palace right now, the Supreme Emperor, Li Shimin, and Empress Changsun are sitting at the top.

The crown prince Li Chengqian, Wei Wang Li Tai and other princes, as well as many important ministers, are all ranked down in order.

As soon as Li Qiu sat down now, he completely overwhelmed the crown prince.

Li Qiu is two years older than Li Chengqian, and they are about the same age, but no matter their appearance, temperament, or aura, the two are simply incomparable.

At this time, the Supreme Emperor asked Li Qiu gently: "Did you come here temporarily from the Furong Garden?"

Li Qiu smiled, avoided the main question and didn't discuss it in depth, "Your Majesty, I wanted to come to see you a long time ago."

"But this gift is a bit cumbersome and a bit much."

"It just so happens that today, the gift here is ready, and I have this opportunity again, so I rushed over here."

While speaking, Li Qiu looked at the food on the dining table in front of the Supreme Emperor.

Then he smiled slightly, "Your Majesty, are you a bit tired of eating all these dishes?"

Upon hearing his words, Supreme Emperor Li Yuan immediately raised his eyebrows with a joyful expression.

Li Qiu's words simply touched his heart.

Not only was he tired of the meal, but more importantly, he had no appetite at all on this occasion.

It's almost the same as chewing wax.

"Hmm! That's right!"

"It's you, the child who understands my feelings best!"

Hearing the conversation between the two of them, Li Shimin was so angry.

I thought to myself, how could this kid make a moth for you wherever he goes?

However, seeing that the Supreme Emperor's mood improved instantly, and he no longer had to continue to fight against himself, making the scene stiff, or even getting the worst risk, Li Shimin recognized it in his heart.

As long as today's banquet can pass smoothly, it doesn't matter what else.

Li Qiu is a kid who likes to mess around, so let him do it.

The officials don't know about Li Shimin's psychology.

At most, Changsun Wuji could guess a little bit, knowing that Li Shimin would never blame Li Qiu in his heart.

And the others, like Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui, Wang Gui, and Samurai Xun secretly frowned, worried for Li Qiu.

What kind of occasion is this?

So solemn, okay, you kid can't be too nonsense, this is going to cause big trouble!

In the same way, like those gentry, at this moment they still bear hatred for Li Qiu's couplet in their hearts.

Especially that Feng Deyi, if he wanted to say that he swallowed Li Qiu alive, he was already thinking about it.

Chapter 199

He is a veteran of the three dynasties, and his reputation as a great Confucian is the highest in the Tang Dynasty.

It was the Prime Minister of Zhongshu Province again, the leader of the world's gentry.

Students are all over the world.

In the hearts of the common people, he has always been one of the most learned people in the world.

But I was stumped by the couplet with only five characters.

In the past few days, he didn't think about tea or food, and he looked through the ancient books at home, but he still couldn't find a suitable couplet.

With his height, he was pointed at by a group of people at the door, talked behind his back, and poked his spine every day.

This taste is really too uncomfortable.

The pressure he has endured in the past few days is even more difficult than when the dynasty changed.

So, now when he sees Li Qiu, his teeth itch with hatred.

If he knew that Li Qiu would show up today, he would have to complain about his illness.

At this time, listening to the conversation between Li Qiu and the Supreme Emperor, all the gentry could not help but feel angry.

You mere merchant, do you have any rules?

Is this the place where you bark?

How dare you say that today's food is not good, are you tired of eating?

In front of the Supreme Emperor, do you still put Your Majesty and Empress in your eyes? !

Just as they were glaring at Li Qiu angrily, Li Qiu smiled and said to the Supreme Emperor: "The Supreme Emperor, the gift that I brought today is several sets of brand new Eight Immortals tables."

"There is also a very unique delicacy, the way of eating, you are guaranteed to have a good appetite and a good mood."

"After today is over, you can try it in Fuchu, try it."

"If you can't do that, you can do whatever you want, kid!"
