On the day Li Sijiu returned to Beijing, every street in the capital was crowded.

The weather is in early autumn, clear sky, cool and pleasant.All the officials of the court were dressed in court uniforms and lined up at the gate of the city with their heads lowered, looking respectful.

Behind them stood guards holding spears, stopping the people behind the officials, but even though they stopped their people, they couldn't stop them from talking crazily——

"Finally I know what Li Sijiu looks like!"

"I heard that he has a blue face and long fangs, nine feet long, a beard, and a mouthful of red teeth! It's scary!"

"Hmph, it's just a matter of heart... Li Sijiu, because no one can control him during the war, has swallowed up our imperial court's benefits!"

"But...but I heard that he is quite good-looking..."

"How is it possible? How can such a treacherous person look good?"

Li Sijiu arrived amidst this frenzied discussion.

The heavy vermilion city gate was slowly opened with a heavy "squeak" sound. Li Sijiu took the document handed back by the city guards, raised his eyes, and glanced through the one-person-wide gate that had just been opened. In the city.

He saw the crowds gathered together, and the crowd formed two endless rivers on both sides of the road. He couldn't help but smiled and said with emotion: "Oh, it's so lively."

While lowering his head, he stuffed the document back into his arms, regardless of whether the city gate was fully opened, lightly shook the reins, kicked the horse's belly, and drove the horse into the city.

The boiling crowd only noticed the movement at the city gate at this time, and quickly stretched their necks on tiptoes to look at it. After they saw the scene at the city gate clearly, the noisy and ear-piercing discussions suddenly disappeared.

When Li Sijiu returned to Beijing this time, he only brought his own personal guards. The young soldiers followed behind him, wearing silver helmets and silver armor. They were all high-spirited and heroic, but no one looked at them, and everyone was stunned. He stared blankly at Li Sijiu.

Li Sijiu's clothes were no different from the others, even the armor on his body was more worn out, with a lot of mud on his feet and legs. It seems very casual.

In order to prevent the sunlight from falling into his eyes, Li Sijiu half-closed his eyes, and smiled at the people around him like the stars he saw on TV. Who knows that the people caught by his eyes, whether they are officials or ordinary people, are all He lowered his head abruptly as if escaping, as if he was walking and suddenly found a vicious dog biting someone in front of him.

Suddenly, a small voice rang in the depths of Li Sijiu's mind.

System: [Li Sijiu, you have a wicked face, so scary. 】

Li Sijiu was taken aback, stretched out his hand to rub his face, and smiled helplessly.

Li Sijiu's personality is simple and straightforward, but he has a very confusing face. His facial features are exquisite: slender eyebrows, narrow eyes, straight nose bridge and smiling lips.But when matched together, it becomes a smile that is not a smile, full of scheming.Li Sijiu's system always said that when he smiled, he had an evil face, like a scary villain, but who knew that he was actually just happy.

Can you be unhappy?

It has been five years since he traveled to ancient times. In the past five years, he has put his head on the beam and stabbed his buttocks. He has devoted more energy than taking the college entrance examination to study the art of war every day. There is no need to say more about the position of general, how much hardship has been experienced in it.

Now that he has defeated the Eastern Wa country steadily, and his vitality has been greatly injured, he has made a great contribution, and was recalled by the emperor to the capital to listen to the award.

Finally, he was one step closer to the goal of him and the system.

The little emperor had already sent someone to wait for Li Sijiu at the gate of the city. When he saw him coming, soldiers immediately came out to greet him. After a while of politeness, he escorted Li Sijiu to the direction of the palace.

Li Sijiu followed him through the crowd, and when he and the soldiers walked out a whole long street, all the officials behind him straightened up, boarded the carriage that had been waiting at the side, and followed behind Li Sijiu. A large group of people rushed towards the palace in a mighty manner.

After walking for less than half an hour, Li Sijiu finally stopped in front of Dongchang Gate. As soon as Li Sijiu got off his horse, a man who looked like a little eunuch trotted over, took the reins from him, and led the horse away.Li Sijiu saw two people standing in front of the Dongchang Gate, before he could see their faces clearly, the officials behind him who had just got off the carriage had already knelt down.

Li Sijiu looked up.

The man on the right first caught Li Sijiu's attention. The man was wearing a purple official uniform, a silver crown on his head, and a straight back.The man was born with a good-looking appearance, with sculpted eyebrows and handsome eyes, and a warm smile on his lips. Just standing there, he was particularly conspicuous, like a handsome young man who came out of a novel.

After meeting Li Sijiu's eyes, the man nodded slightly, and the smile on his face deepened.

Li Sijiu just wanted to look at the man on the left, but that man came up to him with a smile on his face, and said in a sharper voice than ordinary people: "General Li! Our family has been waiting for you for a long time!"

The moment Li Sijiu saw his face clearly, great kindness rose in his heart.

This man is white and beardless, round and chubby, with a smile on his face. In modern times, Li Sijiu's grandmother would take him shopping to buy couplets and New Year pictures every New Year. The person looks almost exactly like the doll on the New Year picture—except for the corners of the eyes and some wrinkles that show age.

The characteristics of these two people are so distinct, Li Sijiu immediately remembered two people, he raised his head and thought for a long time, finally recalled their names, and asked tentatively: "Is...is it Prince Jing and Eunuch Chang?"

"It's the Third Prince and our family." Chang Shunhai responded.

The unique tone and pause of the system sounded in Li Sijiu's mind.

[Stupid...the two of them, one is the emperor's uncle, and the other is the head of the Ouchi.You have to salute. 】

Li Sijiu suddenly realized—he said why King Jing and Chang Shunhai were holding their hands still, they were waiting for him to salute!

Li Sijiu hurriedly bowed to the two.Chang Shunhai then turned around and said, "General Li, please follow me."

On the way to the Hall of Supreme Harmony, Chang Shunhai said that in order to wait for him, the emperor deliberately postponed going to court until now, which shows how much the emperor attaches importance to him.Li Sijiu was quite happy to hear that, and replied "Really?"

A group of people came outside the Hall of Supreme Harmony.Civil and military officials entered the hall from Li Sijiu's side, and Li Sijiu also followed in. Chang Shunhai reached out to stop him: "Wait, general, you are the last to go in."

Li Sijiu let out a "huh" and stood aside obediently.Chang Shunhai glanced at him, Li Sijiu asked: "What?"

Chang Shunhai shook his head, then lowered his head again.

After standing there for about 3 minutes, Li Sijiu heard a shrill voice calling his name inside the Golden Luan Hall. He looked at Chang Shunhai questioningly, and Chang Shunhai said, "General, please go in."

Li Sijiu raised his legs and walked into the hall.

When he graduated from high school, he went to Beijing with a few friends. The schedule was to go to the Forbidden City on the last day before he left. Who knew that because he didn’t do enough homework, it happened that the Forbidden City was closed once a week for renovations. Li Sijiu It's a pity every time I think about it, he really wants to see what the palace looks like with his own eyes.

Now he walked in the hall as he wished, but he didn't dare to look up randomly. He held the sword on his waist and passed among the civil and military officials. Li Sijiu could feel countless eyes falling on him, one of them, It was coming from the bright yellow figure above.

Li Sijiu walked to the front, and out of the corner of his eye, he saw a straight purple figure beside him, it was Prince Jing.

Li Sijiu knelt down on both knees and kowtowed, saying in a deep voice, "My lord, Li Sijiu, kowtow to the emperor."

After a brief silence, a pleasant but emotionless voice said, "General, please get up."

Li Sijiu stood up respectfully, raised his head, and looked at the person on the dragon chair.

Wow.

Li Sijiu only knew that the little emperor Yu Xiujin was only 19 years old this year, but he didn't know that the little emperor was so good-looking, so he was a little surprised for a while.

The eyebrows and eyes of Yu Xiujin and King Jing are somewhat similar, but his complexion is whiter and his eyebrows are more three-dimensional. Compared with the gentle feeling of Prince Jing, Yu Xiujin is more like a half-drawn sword. Sitting there with a deadpan expression on his face, he looked extravagant.

Li Sijiu realized that he and Yu Xiujin had been staring at each other for too long, because he found that he could see the dark circles under Yu Xiujin's eyes clearly, so he quickly looked back and bowed his head respectfully .

He heard Yu Xiujin ask himself: "Speaking of which, this is the first time I and the general have met, right?"

"Go back to the emperor, yes."

After Li Sijiu crossed over, he went straight to the frontier. He served as a soldier for two years, as a lieutenant for two years, and became a general a year ago. He and Yu Xiujin have always communicated by letter, and indeed they have never met.

Realizing that his answer just now seemed a bit blunt, Li Sijiu added: "But even if I have never met, I will always remember the emperor in my heart."

He was very satisfied with the flattery he patted, but Yu Xiujin didn't seem to like it. He was silent for a long time, until all the officials were a little agitated, and then he said again: "Since all dynasties, Dazhou and Dongwo have been entangled , although Dongwa is a small country, it is very cunning, we have not been able to hurt their vitality, the general defeated Dongwa three times in just one year, and forced them to be soft, it is really brave and resourceful."

Li Sijiu was flattered by the praise, he couldn't control the corners of his mouth, and looked at Yu Xiujin: "The emperor's praise is ridiculous."

Yu Xiujin didn't seem to expect him to look over suddenly, his eyes flickered.

[You, laughing again, are scary. 】

Although Li Sijiu didn't think that the emperor would be frightened by him, he still stopped laughing.He suddenly remembered something: "By the way, Your Majesty, I have something I want to give you."

Yu Xiujin called out "Chang Shunhai", and Li Sijiu saw a chubby figure quickly coming in from outside the hall, holding a tray in front of Li Sijiu.Li Sijiu fished out from his pocket, took out a bunch of things, and threw them on the tray with a "boom".

Chang Shunhai's face froze.

Li Sijiu presented the treasure and said: "This necklace is made of one hundred and eight human teeth. This is what I pulled from the neck of the deputy general Dongwo after he killed him. I thought, this necklace is quite Powerful and domineering, it must be very suitable for the emperor."

Someone in the court hall exclaimed: "Human teeth?"

Yu Xiujin wasn't frightened, but he didn't see how happy he was, he just said without any reaction: "The general has a heart, Chang Shunhai, put it away for me."

When Chang Shunhai put away his things and stood beside Yu Xiujin, for some reason, Yu Xiujin sighed slightly, and seemed to be a bit reluctant to ask: "The general has made a great contribution this time. Treat it as a good reward. I wonder if the general has anything you want? I will reward you."

coming!

That's the sentence, Li Sijiu waited for five full years!

Li Sijiu heard the sound that a string broke in his mind, his body had already been rationalized a step earlier, and he knelt down on the ground again with a "plop", and he said in a voice trembling with excitement: "Your Majesty! Your Majesty, I want to Enter your harem!!!"

As soon as these words came out, the chubby shadow beside Yu Xiujin trembled extremely violently, and the purple figure of Prince Jing beside Li Sijiu also shook.Immediately, the Hall of Supreme Harmony fell into a deathly silence.

A cold sweat dripped down Li Sijiu's forehead.

Oops.

His original plan was to establish a good relationship with Yu Xiujin first, become friends, and then have a few long talks, and then ask to enter his harem, but he just got excited and yelled out what was in his heart.

Li Sijiu lay motionless on the ground and began to pretend to be dead, feeling that he was really ashamed and thrown to his grandma's house.

It is estimated that within half an hour, the entire capital will know about this matter.

Li Sijiu began to think in despair, would it be more honorable for him to bump into a pillar on the spot or to rebel on the spot?

Kneeling among the stunned civil and military officials, Li Sijiu's heart was ashamed.But I heard Yu Xiujin's voice: "Okay."

... W-what?good?What does good mean?

I don't know if it was Li Sijiu's illusion, but the already quiet Hall of Supreme Harmony became even more silent. In such a silent and frozen air, Yu Xiujin's voice seemed so calm: "It turns out that the general not only wants to fight for you on the battlefield. I tried my best, and I would like to share my worries in the harem. The general really has a heart."

The purple figure trembled twice again, and the ball almost trembled into an afterimage.Yu Xiujin ignored everyone's horrified stares at him, tapped the faucet on the chair twice with his slender fingers, and added: "It just so happens that the general's mansion is not yet finished, since the general has no place to live, why don't you just leave it tonight?" Go directly to the palace."
