Dynasty Call: Low-key Struggle for Hegemony

That night, when Fang Shiyuan took refuge with the King of Chu and the various families saw that there was no movement from the Marquis of Zhenbei, they unanimously asked their families to bet more on the King of Chu. They originally planned to send insignificant juniors there, but now they plan to replace them with minor celebrities. of young people went there.

On the second day, Li Yuan took a carriage and visited the eldest princess with rich gifts.

The palace maids and guards passing by could see His Royal Highness King Chu's entourage carrying large and small bags of gifts to the eldest princess' palace.

Especially when a certain follower accidentally dropped it, a corner of a large box was exposed, and the dazzling golden light blinded their eyes.

In the palace of the eldest princess, Li Mujun looked suspiciously at Li Yuan, who was smiling at her, and scanned the boxes of gifts, which were genuine.

Don’t reach out to hit the smiling person.

Li Mujun didn't care about Li Yuan's indifferent attitude towards her when they were at the palace gate, and said softly:

"Xiaoyuan, you brought so many gifts today, what do you want from your aunt?"

"Can't you find your aunt if you have nothing to do?"

Li Yuan sat on the chair and took the hot tea brought by the palace maid, with a friendly and sincere smile:

"These gifts were given by some aristocratic families yesterday. There are quite a lot. I can't take so many back to Lingzhou. I think of my aunt, so I want to give her some gifts to honor my aunt."

"Oh~, then you are really interested."

Li Mujun's heart moved. He lowered his head to drink tea and looked at Li Yuan from the corner of his eye.

Doesn't he know that Fang Shiyuan was sent by me?

She was a little anxious yesterday. Although it was very hidden when she went to the Zhenbei Hou Mansion, if someone wanted to find out, they could still find it.

After all, after Fang Shiyuan defeated Yuwen Chengdu and then took refuge with Li Yao, the truth was revealed and there was no need to hide anything.

With Li Yuan's strength in Kyoto, he might not be able to find out.

And Fang Shiyuan took refuge in Li Yuan. In order to express his apology, he didn't tell Li Yuan?

Or is it that Li Yuan knew something and brought so many gifts just to reconcile with himself?

Li Mujun's eyes flashed, and several thoughts were running through his mind while drinking tea.

Li Mujun never thought that Li Yuan would deal with her. She was the eldest princess of the Dayu Dynasty. Even if she did something wrong, what would it matter? Even if the three kings saw her, none of them would be polite. Li Yuan didn't matter. What.

Thinking of the last thought, Li Mujun put down the tea cup with a hint of arrogance on his face:

"Xiao Yuan, at the palace yesterday..."

At this moment, a loud laugh interrupted Li Mujun's words.

"The fifth brother also came to see my aunt, haha, okay, I just want to talk to the fifth brother."

The maid outside did not dare to stop Li Yao who broke in.

Hearing Li Yao's laughter outside the palace, Li Mujun, who had just spoken, frowned and looked at Li Yuan, who was smiling, and suddenly had a bad feeling.

Li Yuan suddenly stood up and cupped his hands at Li Mujun and said:

"I used to be very grateful to my aunt for helping me. These gifts are all in honor of my aunt. I thought about my aunt's visit to me in the palace yesterday for a long time, and I think she was right."

Outside the palace, Li Yao had already arrived in front of the door. When he heard what Li Yuan said, his eyes widened and he stopped to listen to what Li Yuan had to say.

Sure enough, I heard Li Yuan speak again:

"I heard Brother Huang's voice just now. My aunt came to see me yesterday without telling Brother Huang. She probably didn't want Brother Huang to know. So I'll leave now and talk to my aunt in detail later."

After Li Yuan finished speaking, he immediately stepped out, not giving Li Mujun a chance to reply, as if he wanted to escape.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he left the palace gate, he ran into Li Yao who was hiding aside.

Suddenly, a look of unnaturalness appeared on Li Yuan's face, but it quickly disappeared. He looked at Li Yao with surprise on his face and said:

"Brother Imperial, I just heard your voice here, and I was just about to go find you."

Li Yao put on a smile unnaturally and said to Li Yuan:

"Fifth brother, I just learned that you came to see your aunt, and I also want to see you. Since you are here, let's sit here together."

Li Yao pulled Li Yuan and walked in again, acting like a master.

Li Yao stepped into the palace and immediately saw Li Mujun's frowning expression. He narrowed his eyes slightly and said without changing his smile:

"Auntie, the fifth brother has just arrived, how could you let him go? The fifth brother is so sincere!"

Li Yao glanced at the boxes of gifts next to the palace.

"Fifth brother, you are thoughtful and still remember your aunt."

Li Yuan smiled and said: "Of course, brother Huang, do you still remember that my aunt in Yujing College came to find me? It's a pity that we were all a step too late and let Chu Junyan take the lead.

Although we failed, I still remember my aunt's kindness to me. "

"yes."

"Auntie is good to all of us."

Li Yao could only laugh.

Li Mujun, who was sitting in the main seat at the moment, saw the conversation between Li Yuan and Li Yao, with a cold voice in her eyes. She finally understood that Li Yuan came here with bad intentions!

"King Chu, you are here as well. I understand your intentions. In the future, you can return to the fiefdom and stay safe. Don't weaken the majesty of the royal family. I can't help you much. You can leave with these gifts."

"ah?"

Li Yuan's expression was stunned and he looked at the eldest princess blankly.

Finally, he looked at Li Yao and suddenly realized,

He said hurriedly:

"What my aunt said was that I was rude. Brother Emperor, don't get me wrong. I came here just to express my gratitude to my aunt.

Since my aunt doesn’t want it, I’ll take it back! "

Li Yuan was afraid that Li Yao might misunderstand, so he quickly asked his attendants outside to carry the gifts back into the carriage.

"Brother Emperor, it was the younger brother who was abrupt. Don't get me wrong."

Li Yuan nervously looked at Li Yao, whose face was gradually darkening, and explained:

"In the future, Kyoto will still be run by my aunt and my brother, and we need the concerted efforts of my aunt and my brother."

"Your Majesty, please leave now."

Li Yuan's entourage quickly moved the gifts back to the carriage. Seeing this, Li Yuan did not dare to stay any longer for fear that they would misunderstand the same thing.

Seeing Li Yuan leaving quickly, the palace fell into silence.

The cold-faced Li Yao suddenly sneered and smiled at Li Mujun above:

"Auntie, do you think I will be fooled by fifth brother's little trick to alienate you? Does he underestimate me too much?"

Seeing Li Yao's disdainful smile, Li Mujun softened his expression and said seriously:

"Xiao Yao, King Chu already knows that we are dealing with him, so he will fight back immediately.

A weak King of Chu dares to deal with us. You can imagine how much pressure the three kings put on us. We are one, don't listen to their words! "

Li Yao said with a serious face: "Aunt, don't worry, I understand!"

However, Li Yao's mind kept echoing Li Yuan's words just now:

"In the future, Kyoto will still be run by my aunt and my brother!"

"Aunt and the emperor are in charge?"

…………

The gates of the Four Princes' Palaces were still bustling with people. One day later, a piece of news came from nowhere in Kyoto:

"The four kings have all gone to the fiefdom, why does the eldest princess still stay in Kyoto!"
