Chapter 166 Emperor Wu invites you with ill intentions
Kyoto!
Within the palace.
Emperor Wu finished handling government affairs, and Liu Jin walked up carefully: "Your Majesty, the Northern Zhou delegation has already set off and left Kyoto."
"Has there been any news from Lao Liu?" Emperor Wu pretended to be angry and said, "This bastard actually wanted to rob the Northern Zhou envoys. I will skin him alive."
Liu Jin lowered his head and kept agreeing, but his heart was as clear as a mirror: "Although your majesty appears to be very angry, strictly speaking, your majesty has not taken any substantive measures at all."
"Now the Northern Zhou delegation has already left Kyoto."
"Your Majesty still hasn't made any movement."
"There must be something fishy going on here."
"I'm afraid that His Majesty also hopes that the Sixth Prince will succeed, but His Majesty is not able to say it out loud due to his status. As a servant, I cannot be too clever, otherwise it will offend His Majesty."
"That would be the end of us."
While Liu Jin was mumbling, he said softly, "Your Majesty, the Northern Zhou delegation has already left Kyoto. Would you like me to go to the Sixth Prince to make some arrangements?"
"I have sent someone to go." Emperor Wu snorted coldly: "If this evil boy really dares to rob the Northern Zhou envoys, I will see how I will deal with him."
Liu Jin was trying to hold back his laughter but didn't dare to show it: "Your Majesty, I think the Sixth Prince has been bewitched."
"Given the Sixth Prince's honest character, it is absolutely impossible for him to do such a thing."
Emperor Wu's expression eased a little: "Are you talking about the ghost face?"
"Your Majesty is wise." Liu Jin quickly flattered him. Emperor Wu snorted, "If this ghost mask is still useful, I would dig three feet into the ground to find it."
"How dare you threaten me?"
"I'm afraid he still doesn't understand my tactics."
Liu Jin bowed and smiled apologetically: "Your Majesty just values talent. I hope that ghost face can understand your Majesty's painstaking efforts."
"otherwise."
"I'm afraid he doesn't even know how he died."
Emperor Wu was very satisfied. Seeing that Emperor Wu was in a good mood, Liu Jin dared to step forward and said, "Your Majesty, I have something else to ask."
"what's up?"
Emperor Wu narrowed his eyes, and Liu Jin bowed: "Your Majesty, the First Rank Consort came to the outside of the palace yesterday. It is said that she wants to go out and play for a while."
play?
Emperor Wu did not answer when he heard this. He tapped the table lightly with his fingers, as if he was thinking about something. The expression on his face kept changing, which made Liu Jin a little uneasy.
Emperor Wu had said before that if Li Yulan wanted to go out for a walk, it was not impossible.
Why this hesitation?
Could something have happened?
When Liu Jin was nervous, Emperor Wu whispered: "Liu Jin, please make some arrangements. Since the two children got married, I haven't had a meal with my mother-in-law yet."
Liu Jin was stunned when he heard this. There was actually a hint of cunning across Emperor Wu's face?
"Your Majesty, were you trying to hold back your laughter just now?"
Liu Jin even suspected that he had seen it wrong. The person in the high position in front of him was Emperor Wu of Daqian. Why did he seem so proud just now?
Geek!
Liu Jin seemed to have thought of something, and his heart trembled: "Your Majesty, could it be that you have feelings for the First Rank Imperial Lady?"
You have to know that Li Yulan is actually quite pretty, especially when she was young. Li Yulan also fought on the battlefield with the King of Zhenbei. Now that the King of Zhenbei is dead, the Sixth Prince and Chu Wan'er are a match made in heaven.
As the Emperor of Daqian, it is not impossible for Emperor Wu to be attracted to his mother-in-law.
Gulu!
Liu Jin was completely confused: "Your Majesty, I will arrange it right away."
Chu family!
Li Yulan was chatting and laughing with Li Yu'e at this time. Although it seemed that Li Yu'e sold the Li family's property and the spinning wheel drawings at the same time, the spinning wheel drawings were announced by Emperor Wu in return.
The biggest beneficiary is naturally Li Yu'e, who made a move at a high position. Otherwise, if the spinning wheel drawings were made public, Li Yu'e would be the one who would be most embarrassed.
"Sister, we have wanted to meet His Majesty during this period, but His Majesty has refused time and again. Will there be any problem?" Li Yu'e was a little worried.
"It shouldn't be that serious." Li Yulan shook her head: "Your Majesty doesn't know about the Sixth Prince's excellence yet, so he shouldn't restrict my actions. Besides, I'm just going out to take a look."
"It won't have any impact on your majesty."
"Before, if I wanted to leave Kyoto, I could leave at any time. But now that I have the title of a first-rank imperial edict, I have to consider the face of the royal family when doing many things."
"Besides, His Majesty promised me personally to go out for a walk to relax."
Li Yu'e shook her head: "Sister, but I have been feeling a little uneasy these past two days, as if something big has happened."
"and……"
Li Yu'e whispered, "When the Sixth Prince left, he said that he would find time to come back to Kyoto when the time is right."
“But it’s been so long.”
"I haven't seen the Sixth Prince at all. I always feel that something unexpected will happen."
Li Yulan was about to speak when Yin Shuang came running over from outside the door: "Madam, someone is coming from the palace."
"Oh?"
Li Yulan looked at Li Yu'e in surprise, with more worry in her eyes. Li Yu'e narrowed her eyes and said, "Yinshuang, is this the chief steward Liu Jin?"
"Yes." Yin Shuang nodded: "It seems that Manager Liu has something important to do."
Geek!
Li Yulan's heart trembled, and she hurried out. Liu Jin shouted to Li Yulan from a distance: "Madam Li, what a great joy."
"Master Liu, you are joking. Where does this good news come from?" Li Yulan's eyes were full of vigilance. Master Liu said flatteringly, "Madam Li, didn't I come here to tell you the good news?"
"Just now, His Majesty asked me to tell Madam Li to pack up and go to the palace to see Him tonight."
"It's just a small gathering between the relatives."
Small gathering?
An invitation from the emperor?
Li Yulan was stunned. How many people in the world could receive such an honor?
Li Yulan had not expected things to turn out this way. Before she could come to her senses, Liu Jin bowed and said, "Madam Li, I will go back and prepare first."
"I hope Madam Li will be on time for the appointment."
"Please don't keep your majesty waiting for too long."
"I have served Your Majesty for many years, but I have never seen Your Majesty take the initiative to invite others."
“This is a great honor.”
Li Yulan was even more confused. She turned around and came to the courtyard. Li Yu'e frowned and said, "Sister, why would His Majesty invite you at this time?"
"I do not know."
Li Yulan subconsciously said, "Could it be that something really happened to the Sixth Prince?"
"Probably not."
Li Yu'e shook her head: "If something really happened to the Sixth Prince, Wan'er would find a way to tell us."
"Your Majesty would not invite you to a banquet alone."
"correct."
Li Yu'e seemed to have thought of something and looked up for a moment: "Sister, do you think His Majesty has taken a liking to you?"
"I invite you to go under the moon and flowers."
