Datang: Only by resisting the will can one become stronger

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

A word costs 10 taels of gold? This is a bit outrageous.

Wait until he retires, goes back and tells his master the price.

The master of his family was also thunderous, and he dropped several vases in a row.

"This despicable businessman, how dare he?!"

After them, many mysterious people visited one after another.

Li Qiujun gave the same answer, his attitude was very good, he wanted to link down, and if he kept it secret, he would be ten gold per word.

At this point, Li Qiu couldn't help but feel a little lost in his heart.

In the past, Lu Buwei was a thousand words, but now he is a hundred times worse when he comes here, which is really embarrassing.

And most of these people's reactions are similar.

In addition to scolding Li Qiu behind his back, there was no other way.

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

Then there was a big feast.

But today, on the occasion of the New Year, the Emperor Taishang inevitably has a lot of complicated emotions and memories of the past in his heart.

So the face is extremely bad.

Now he is very unafraid and cares about Li Shimin's face.

In his heart, there was probably such an emotion:

You have already imprisoned me here, how can

you kill me? Do you dare?

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

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

If he were to be sneered at or even scolded by the Emperor Taishang today, he would have to be written into the daily life records by the historians and passed on to future generations.

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

The purpose of their existence is also a spur, encouragement, and a warning to the emperor.

Especially Li Shimin, it can be said that he is the emperor who attaches the most importance to his reputation in later generations.

At this critical moment, Li Shimin found a vacancy and ordered him to go down and call that

Li Qiu over quickly! When Li Qiu arrived, the banquet in the Da'an Palace was about to begin.

Emperor Taishang sat there with a cold face, and the faces of Li Shimin and Empress Eldest Sun were not very good-looking, and they were a little sad.

And these ministers below feel even more uncomfortable than Li Shimin.

This is a splint gas, and the hall is quiet, and they simply don't even raise their heads.

I could only hear the slight voices of the palace maids who were sweating on their foreheads as they were extremely nervous serving food to everyone.

At that time, the Tang Dynasty still had a separate meal system, with everyone sitting on the floor (more like something like tatami mats) and a small table in front of each person.

There is also an order.

Seeing that this banquet was about to begin, in front of the important ministers for the New Year, there was such an atmosphere, Li Shimin's brows were furrowed, and he was very unhappy in his heart.

It was at this time that Li Qiu finally arrived.

As soon as they saw him, they didn't know what was going on, and the sorrow in the hearts of Li Shimin and Empress Eldest Sun instantly faded a lot.

The attention was also distracted from Li Qiu's side.

"Li Qiu

!" "This is about to be a banquet, why are you here?!"

If it were someone else, hearing Li Shimin's question, which seemed to imply anger, he would definitely tremble with fright, and kneel down to ask for forgiveness.

However, Li Qiu is also very familiar with Li Shimin's style, so he can naturally hear that even if he is angry, he is not to himself.

What's more, I rushed to the scene after receiving a notice at short notice, which is already fast.

Of course, he still has to do a superficial article.

He bowed down and replied respectfully: "Back to Your Majesty, this time the minister has delayed for some time because there are too many gifts for the emperor." "

Please also ask Your Majesty for forgiveness.

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

he spoke, the corner of his eye glanced at the Emperor Taishang.

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

This also made Li Shimin secretly happy in his heart, fortunately he called Li Qiu in time.

Otherwise, it's really troublesome.

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

Seeing that the Emperor Taishang said this, Li Shimin and Empress Changsun acquiesced again, and then someone added a table for Li Qiu next to the Emperor Taishang.

You must know that in this palace right now, the Emperor Taishang, Li Shimin, and the eldest grandson and queen are sitting at the top.

And the crown prince Li Chengqian, the king of Wei Li Tai and other princes, as well as many important ministers, are all ranked in order.

Now as soon as Li Qiu's position is seated, he will overpower the crown prince.

Li Qiu is two years older than Li Chengqian, and he is of the same age, but no matter his appearance, temperament, or aura, the two cannot be compared at all.

At this time, the Emperor Taishang gently asked Li Qiu, "You came here from the Hibiscus Garden temporarily?"

Li Qiu smiled, avoiding the main question and not talking deeply, "Emperor Taishang, the kid has wanted to come to see you for a long time.

"But this gift is a bit cumbersome, a little too much.

"It just so happened that today, the gifts here were ready, and I had this opportunity again, so I rushed over.

As he spoke, Li Qiu looked at the food on the table in front of the emperor.

Then he smiled slightly, "Emperor Taishang, are you a little tired of eating these dishes?"

As soon as he heard his words, Emperor Taishang Li Yuan immediately raised his eyebrows and looked very happy.

Li Qiu's words simply spoke to his heart.

Not only is he tired of this meal, but the main thing is that on this occasion today, he has no appetite at all.

It's almost the same as chewing wax.

"Well, that's right

!" "It's still you, the kid, who knows my feelings best!" Hearing the

conversation between the two of them, Li Shimin was so angry in his heart.

I thought to myself, how can this kid get a moth out for you wherever he goes?

But ah, seeing that the emperor's mood over there improved instantly, and he didn't continue to resist himself, make the scene stiff, and even get the worst risk, Li Shimin's heart also admitted it.

As long as this banquet can be passed smoothly today, it doesn't matter what else happens.

Li Qiu, this kid likes to mess around, so let him make trouble.

Regarding Li Shimin's psychology, the ministers don't know.

At most, the eldest grandson Wuji can guess a little, knowing that Li Shimin will never blame Li Qiu in his heart.

And others, like Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui, Wang Qi, and Wu Shi Tong, frowned secretly, worried about Li Qiu.

What kind of occasion is this?

It's so solemn, you kid can't be too nonsense, this is going to be a big trouble!

Similarly, like those scholars, at this time, they still have hatred for Li Qiu's couplet in their hearts.

Especially that Feng Deyi, if you want to say that you have swallowed Li Qiu alive, you have the mind.
