Li Yuan.

Half an hour later, Murong and Mu Bai left in a carriage together.

In front of Li Garden, Li Ziye watched the two people leave, and then returned to the house humming a little tune.

Don't tell me, this ninth princess is so pretty.

It would be nice to have her as a wife.

It's just that the butt is not big enough, and Sister Youwei may not like it.

Outside the front hall, Bai Wangyu looked at Li Ziye who was in a good mood and asked curiously, what made him so happy?

I won't tell you.

Li Ziye Shen returned to the inner courtyard with high spirits.

He helped the Ninth Princess this time, and maybe the Ninth Princess would agree to it if she was moved.

When the time comes, will he agree?

How difficult it is!

In the inner courtyard, Zhang Sugao saw Li Ziye walking towards him with a nympho look on his face, and knew that this kid was thinking wildly again.

Capital City, on the way back to the palace.

In the carriage, the fourth prince Mu Bai sat there quietly, saying nothing.

Opposite him, Murong stared at his brother with a pair of beautiful eyes. If eyes could kill, Mu Bai might have been chopped into pieces.

Not intentional.

After a long time, Mu Bai couldn't bear the murderous look in his sister's eyes and took the initiative to apologize.

Ha, His Highness the Fourth Prince is really powerful. He went to other people's houses to show off his power. If Bai Wangyu hadn't taken the initiative to stop, would His Highness have been planning to fight until nightfall?

Murong asked with a dangerous light flashing in his eyes.

no.

Mu Bai immediately shook his head and said, it was just a competition. Even if Bai Wangyu didn't stop, his brother would stop in time.

He was not a fool. How could he not see that his sister was on the verge of breaking out? He didn't want to hurt innocent people.

Oh, brother, do you still have this consciousness?

Murong smiled lightly and said, "How about the things I asked you to ask?"

When Mu Bai heard this, he looked startled, and then secretly took a breath of air.

It’s over, just focus on the sword competition and forget about the real thing!

really!

When Murong saw this, the light in his eyes became more and more dangerous, and he asked, has brother forgotten?

Mu Bai was silent and did not dare to speak.

Murong closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and endured it several times before suppressing the anger that was rising in his heart.

Men, no one is reliable!

They are all big pig hooves!

How about we go back and ask again?

Mu Bai spoke, and although he was panicking, he still looked very calm and asked.

Need not.

Murong opened his eyes and said calmly, I have already asked.

Have you asked?

When Mu Bai heard this, he was surprised and said, "After brother Wei and Bai Wangyu sparred, we came out of Li Garden. When did you ask?"

Who said I asked him? Murong said in a bad mood.

Instead of asking him, you can still ask

Mu Bai said half a sentence, then suddenly he looked startled and said in surprise, are you talking about Li Ziye?

Um.

Murong nodded, with a flash of light in his eyes, and said, This time, I'm afraid we will owe the Li family a big favor.

She didn't know why Li Ziye wanted to help her, but she couldn't deny the favor.

On the streets, carriages rumbled forward towards the palace.

As the sun was about to set, as he approached the palace, Mu Bai stepped out of the carriage, looked at his sister in the carriage, and said seriously, "If that Li Ziye can really help you this time, I will help you repay this favor for my brother."

After saying that, Mu Bai didn't say anything more, turned around and walked towards his palace.

The three days seemed to pass very peacefully.

Three days later, in the Great Shang Palace and in front of the Fengtian Hall, all the ministers arrived. The Shang Emperor sat on a thousand stone steps, looking down, showing his majesty as an emperor.

The autumn wind blew by, the canopy swayed, and the ministers of Dashang stood under the stone steps one by one, looking a little anxious.

Three days have passed, but no one has come up with the answer.

I heard that His Majesty has asked people from Taixue Palace to help solve the problem. I don’t know if there is any result.

On the stone steps, Emperor Shang looked down, his expression calm, without any disturbance.

Yesterday, the Confucian leader sent someone to reply, saying that all three questions have been answered. However, the time is approaching, why do people from the Confucian sect come who have not yet seen it?

The envoy from Tianyu Palace has arrived.

At this moment, a sharp voice sounded at the end of the stone steps. With everyone's attention, outside the Xuanwu Gate, everyone in the temple, led by Yan Xiaoyu and Liu Rongnu, stepped forward.

coming.

At the bottom of the stone steps, the ministers looked at each other, and their faces became more worried. The people from the temple had arrived, but they had not yet figured out the answers to the three questions. What should they do?

Under the sad eyes of the officials of the Great Shang, the people in the temple came up, saluted respectfully, and said, "I have met His Majesty the Great Shang."

No need to be polite.

Emperor Shang opened his mouth and said calmly.

Everyone in the temple stood up straight, headed by Yan Xiaoyu, who looked up at Emperor Shang in front of the Fengtian Palace and said with a smile, Your Majesty, the three days are up. I wonder if you can give an answer?

After saying that, Yan Xiaoyu glanced at the merchant officials on both sides, and the corner of his mouth curved with a trace of undetectable sarcasm.

Judging from the dejected looks of these losers, they must have not found the answer.

On both sides of the stone steps, the ministers saw the mocking gaze of the Son of Heavenly Mandate Palace. Although they were angry in their hearts, they could not say anything.

hold on.

In front of Fengtian Palace, Emperor Shang spoke calmly.

Below, Yan Xiaoyu heard the words and looked at Emperor Shang on the stone steps, saying, Your Majesty, please wait. Our temple can naturally wait, but I don’t know when we have to wait?

A stick of incense, Emperor Shang said slowly.

good!

Yan Xiaoyu smiled faintly and said, "My temple will wait for one more incense."

In three days, the entire Dashang could not answer the question, and he did not believe that they could make any progress in just one stick of incense.

But it's just delaying the time to admit defeat.

In front of the Fengtian Palace, the old eunuch from the palace brought a stick of incense and placed it on the wooden table, lit it with a fire stick, and immediately withdrew.

The incense in the palace is all specially made. The short ones can be burned in two quarters of an hour, while the long ones can last for half an hour.

In order to delay a little more time, the old eunuch deliberately picked the longest one.

At the bottom of the stone steps, Yan Xiaoyu saw the thoughts of the Great Shang court and sneered, but did not reveal it.

Just drag it on and see how long you can drag it on.

Outside Fengtian Hall, time passed little by little, the autumn wind blew by, and the incense ashes fell. All the officials of Dashang stared at this incense, hoping that this incense could burn for a while longer.

In front of the ministers, Mu Bai stood there calmly, as calm and composed as ever, as if he had the composure not to panic even if the mountain collapsed.

Murong said, if the Li family's legitimate son comes, then he will definitely come.

He didn't believe in the legitimate son of the Li family, but believed in Murong's vision of people.

The time for a stick of incense has almost passed.

About half an hour later, at the foot of the stone steps, Yan Xiaoyu looked at Emperor Shang in front of the Fengtian Palace and said with a smile, Your Majesty, do you still want to wait?

The incense has not been burned out yet, so don’t worry. Emperor Shang said calmly.

Ah.

Yan Xiaoyu smiled scornfully, the emperors and ministers of the Great Shang really did not want to die until they reached the Yellow River.
