Chapter 827 Entering the Palace
Chapter 827 Entering the Palace
Big business city.
The carriage rumbled by.
Inside the carriage.
Li Ziye sat there quietly, closed his eyes and meditated, and put the fine steel fan aside, always by his side. 7K 妏敩
On days without swords, you can only use iron fans to protect yourself, which is simple and practical, and will not arouse suspicion.
In the vortex of power, even though he is as smart as Li Ziye, he dare not be careless.
Not long after, in front of the palace.
Li Ziye got off the carriage.
Coincidentally, not far away, the carriage of the Fourth Prince's Mansion also stopped.
Mu Bai walked out, and the first thing he saw was Bu Yihou in front of him.
"Fourth Highness!"
Li Ziye clapped his hands in salute.
"Bu Yihou."
Mu Bai returned the salute, puzzled, "Master Hou is going to enter the palace?"
"Your Majesty summoned me." Li Ziye said softly.
"It's just right, this king is also going to the palace to pay his respects to the queen mother, let's go together." Mu Bai replied.
"it is good."
Li Ziye nodded, and immediately walked towards the palace with the fourth prince.
"Bu Yihou shouldn't have led soldiers before, so why is he familiar with the art of war?" Mu Bai asked while walking on the road.
"I have been familiar with military books since I was a child, so that one day I can serve the court and share the worries of His Majesty."
Li Ziye replied casually, without thinking about it. In his opinion, one doesn't need to use brains to deal with an idiot like Mu Bai.
"The commoner martial arts is also for the purpose of becoming an official?" Mu Bai continued to ask.
"It is the dream of every martial arts practitioner in Dashang to make meritorious deeds and seal his wife and son. This minister is no exception."
Li Ziye said calmly, "I am very lucky to be appreciated by the two Martial Kings and His Majesty, and have the opportunity to show my ambitions. Therefore, I must do my best to serve the court!"
"Learn literary and martial arts, and be like the emperor's family."
Mu Bai sighed softly, although this commoner has great talent, he is not in the same category as Brother Li after all.
The two chatted while walking, but what they said was very unnutritious and high-sounding.
Mu Bai is indifferent by nature, unless he approves of someone, otherwise, being able to say a few words politely is already a great way to save face.
Obviously, today's commoner doesn't have a temper with Mu Bai.
Soon, the two parted ways, one went to Shou'an Palace and the other to Weiyang Palace.
Li Ziye looked at Mu Bai's disappearing figure, the corners of his mouth slightly curved.
This guy hasn't changed at all.
So easy to fool.
If Murong was a man, he wouldn't be so worried. With Murong's intelligence, coupled with his background, he would have already won the crown prince.
Weiyang Palace.
Mu Bai walked over, entered the hall, and saluted respectfully, "I pay my respects to the empress."
"stand up."
At the table, Queen Changsun smiled and said, "Have you gone to pay your respects to your father first?"
"No."
Mu Bai shook his head, and said, "Father called the commoner into the palace to discuss matters, and my son will go later."
"Bu Yihou?"
When Empress Changsun heard the words, a strange look flashed in her eyes, and she said, "Looking at the situation, your royal father will probably want to use this person again."
"Bu Yihou has the heart to serve the imperial court and has great talent, so it's not surprising that the emperor appreciates it." Mu Bai said calmly.
"Judging from your tone, you don't seem to like him." Empress Changsun narrowed her eyes slightly and said.
"Too utilitarian, too scheming."
Mu Bai went to the table and sat down, and replied, "My son, I really don't like him very much, but it is undeniable that Buyihou is a usable talent."
"The most important thing for a person in a high position is to know people and make good use of them. Those who are available should be treated with courtesy."
Empress Changsun looked at her son-in-law in front of her, and reminded, "Your elder brother is much better than you at this point."
Mu Yuan has been there several times in succession for Bu Yihou Xinfeng, showing his intention to win over, no matter what the result is, the attitude of a corporal who is respectful and worthy has been done enough.
Mu Bai was silent and didn't say much.
Empress Changsun knew that this kind of thing could not be changed overnight, so she didn't say anything more, changed the subject, and said, "Pu Yihou will leave in a while, go and ask your father to rest."
"Ah."
Mu Bai nodded and replied softly.
At the same time, Shou'an Hall.
Li Ziye came and entered the hall under the leadership of the servant.
"Wei Chen, pay homage to His Majesty."
"Flat body."
In the hall, Emperor Shang looked at the person in front of him and asked, "Can you play chess?"
"I know a little bit."
Li Ziye replied respectfully.
"That's good, play a game with me." Shang Huang smiled.
"Yes!"
Li Ziye responded, stepped forward, and took the initiative to pick up the sunspot.
Weak players should hold sunspots and go first, this is the rule.
Li Ziye doesn't like rules, but that doesn't mean he doesn't understand them.
Heiziluo, take the first step.
The Shang Emperor held the white son, and then placed the son, asking, "Are you satisfied with the new mansion?"
"satisfy."
Li Ziye replied, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your concern."
"That's good."
Emperor Shang nodded and continued to play chess without further words.
Li Ziye didn't take the initiative to speak, and played chess quietly.
main hall.
It was very quiet, only the sound of falling was heard again and again.
Li Ziye played chess with Emperor Shang once before, but now they are fighting again, but the way of chess has completely changed.
Introverted, sharp-edged.
A game of chess was not played for a long time, after about two quarters of an hour, it was getting to the end.
The outcome has already been decided.
"The minister lost."
At the end of the game, Li Ziye took the initiative to put down the chess pieces in his hand and admit defeat.
"not bad."
Emperor Shang saw that the person in front of him was trying to hide his clumsiness, but he didn't point it out. He changed the subject and said, "I heard that both the First Prince and the Fourth Prince have been to your residence in the past two days."
"Reporting to Your Majesty, both Your Highnesses have indeed been to the minister's mansion."
Li Ziye said truthfully, "Your highness, the virtuous corporals, came to congratulate the minister in person. I am very moved."
"Tell me your impression of the two princes." Emperor Shang said calmly.
"I dare not."
Li Ziye immediately lowered his head, with a look of panic on his face, and said, "The two princes are both dragons and phoenixes among men, so how can someone like this minister be able to comment."
"I told you to say it, so you say it."
Emperor Shang said lightly, "Even if you say something wrong, I will forgive you for your innocence."
Li Ziye's face changed after hearing the words, and after a long time, he suppressed the panic in his expression, and replied, "Yes."
After hesitating for a moment, Li Ziye organized his words and said, "His Royal Highness is humble and has a heart for the people. When talking with his ministers, he mentioned the war in the north many times and wanted to relieve His Majesty's worries. He is a rare virtuous king and filial son. As for His Royal Highness, he is honest and upright, and his talent in martial arts is even more astonishing. I have exchanged a few moves with His Royal Highness, and they are no match at all. One day, His Royal Highness will surely enter the Fifth Realm and become a peerless swordsman at the level of a human sword fairy."
After hearing the words of the person in front of him, Emperor Shang narrowed his eyes slightly.
It turned out that he chose Mu Yuan.
"Your Majesty, the Fourth Highness is here, just outside the hall."
At this time, a servant walked into the hall and reported.
"Let him in."
Emperor Shang nodded and said calmly, "Bu Yihou, you should go back first."
"Minister, leave."
Li Ziye got up, bowed again, then turned and left.
In front of the hall, Li Ziye and Mu Bai walked past each other, nodding to each other.
When Mu Bai entered the palace, a strange look flashed in his eyes, this commoner had just left.
"My son, please greet my father."
In the hall, Mu Bai stepped forward and saluted respectfully.
"stand up."
Shang Huang looked at his son in front of him, and said calmly, "Fourth, I heard that when you went to Buyihou's mansion, you had a match with Buyihou?"
"It is true." Mu Bai replied.
"Do you know what Bu Yihou thinks of you?" Emperor Shang said indifferently.
"I don't know." Mu Bai shook his head and said.
"He is upright and has the appearance of a sword fairy."
Emperor Shang said coldly, "Fourth brother, you are the prince, how can you give such an impression to the courtiers below!"
That Bu Yihou is indeed powerful, in one sentence, he seems to have praised the two princes, but he is actually implying that he, the fourth child, is not available.
And the boss is Mingjun's candidate.
