After I left, I took the God of War Lord to farm

Chapter 231: To hold a martial arts tournament

Li Shishi didn't ask anything from the beginning to the end, she just stayed with him in the study for half an hour, then told him to rest early and left.

In fact, she wanted to ask a lot, but after thinking about it, she didn't need to ask many things, after all, he had his own plans.

However, when she returned to the bedroom, Gongsun Qing followed her.

It's time to wash up and go to bed like a normal person.

Li Shishi was lying on the bed and sleeping in a daze, but Gongsun Qing sat up at some point.

Whispered a few words in her ear, but she didn't hear clearly.

It just felt like he possessed her and kissed her, and then left.

In Lianxiu Palace.

The Seventh Prince was sitting in the room, holding a steamed stuffed bun in one hand and reading a book of The Art of War in the other.

He was very focused on watching, until he heard footsteps outside the door, he turned around in surprise, swallowed the buns in two or three bites, and quickly hid the book in his hand.

'Knock knock. '

Someone knocked lightly at the door, and he breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Come in, the door is unlocked."

He originally thought that the person who came was the man pretending to be a eunuch before, but when he looked back, he found that the person who came was Gongsun Qing.

For a moment, he was a little taken aback.

Standing up and looking at him, he asked, "My lord, why are you here?"

"Why? You are surprised that this king is here?"

Zhou Chaoyuan nodded hesitantly and said, "I thought you wouldn't come."

"I have to come over to see you. Recently, I heard that the Seventh Prince is studying the art of war?"

The Seventh Prince nodded cautiously and said: "Well, it was brought to me by Xiao Fuzi, but some words are too uncommon for me to understand."

Gongsun Qing took a look at the furnishings in the room, sat on the only intact chair in the room and said, "This king is not here today for other reasons. The main reason is that the Seventh Prince has worked hard to study the art of war in recent days, so I intend to do it for you." The prince has arranged for a teacher, what would you like?"

Zhou Chaoyuan's eyes lit up, and then asked: "Is this true?"

"Of course, if you agree, Seventh Prince, then I will send someone to arrange it."

"That would be great." Zhou Chaoyuan nodded in agreement, "However, wouldn't it be too ostentatious to do so, and if outsiders find out, wouldn't they be asking for trouble?"

"The Seventh Prince doesn't need to worry, this king has his own arrangements."

When Gongsun Qing left Lianxiu Palace, he briefly explained a few words to Yu Xue.

Not long after leaving the palace gate, he bumped into Prime Minister Zuo head-on.

Gongsun Qing was a little hesitant, seeing Prime Minister Zuo walking towards him, it seemed that he was deliberately waiting for him.

"My lord, you are safe and well." Zuo Xiang looked at him and smiled and cupped his hands.

"Zuo Xiang, we just met today, why do you need to be so polite?"

Prime Minister Zuo raised the corners of his mouth slightly, then turned his head slightly to look at Lianxiu Palace behind Gongsun leaning over.

"How did your lord get here?"

Gongsun Qing glanced back calmly, and said calmly: "I just passed by, I didn't expect there to be such a deserted place in the palace."

Prime Minister Zuo raised his eyebrows, looked at Gongsun Qing suspiciously and asked, "Don't you know who lives here?"

Gongsun Qing asked with a puzzled look: "What does Prime Minister Zuo mean? Is there anyone else living in this bedroom?"

Zuo Xiang was slightly hesitant, Hui smiled inscrutably, and then said: "It's nothing, is the lord leaving?"

"Well, I'm going back."

"That's just right, I'm leaving the palace too, why don't we go together?"

"It couldn't be better, but Prime Minister Zuo is still in the palace, so what's the matter?"

The left minister raised his hand, brushed his thumb across the tip of his nose, and said teasingly: "In a few days, the Qiuju meeting will be held. The emperor has a lot of experience in the art of cultivating the mind today, and wants to take this opportunity to hold a martial arts competition. Therefore, he invites me to attend." The palace is to discuss this matter."

"Fighting competition?" Gongsun Qing squinted his eyes: "This is a good idea, but Master Zuo has to worry about it."

"This is what should be done." Prime Minister Zuo hooked the corners of his lips with a half-smile, and then said: "Then let's leave the palace together."

"Left Prime Minister, please."

Qiuju will be held every August [-]th

It is also the day when foreign countries pay tribute every year.

Small countries on the border signed an cessation of war agreement, paying tribute every year and proclaiming their vassals every year.

The tribute delicacies and rare treasures are countless.

However, it is true that Wanchao came to congratulate, but at this time of year, there are always some countries that are not willing to be vassal states, bring envoys and tricky questions, and use this as an excuse to try to destroy the cessation of war contract.

But this time Qiu Ju will be different from the past.

In the past, everyone just sat together, ate, drank and flattered each other, and watched singing, dancing and juggling for two days.

Only this time, the emperor issued an order to hold a battle of martial arts at the Qiuju Festival, and the whole country was in an uproar because of the emperor's decree.

Moreover, this martial arts competition is to select strange people with extraordinary abilities from the people, and enter the palace to perform for the emperor.

It is said that if one can become the winner, there will be countless gold and silver treasures, real estate deeds, and even an official promotion.

One pass to ten, ten to a hundred, the words became more and more outrageous, and many ministers in the court reported to the emperor to withdraw their orders.

Originally, after the frost disaster, it became difficult for the common people to eat and drink, but now the court and the central government held a large-scale fighting game, which was even more laborious and costly.

It's just that the emperor seems to be determined to hold a martial arts meeting, and no matter who says it, he doesn't want to take back this will.

There was an uproar in the palace and outside the palace, so Li Shishi naturally knew about it.

Gongsun Qing was also frowning because of this matter. Whenever he returned home after the pilgrimage, he would have a cold face and even seldom eat.

Seeing his decadent state, Li Shishi was naturally very worried, but she couldn't leave the house now, and she only listened to Zhou Sheng's explanation on many things.

She didn't want to intervene too much at first, but seeing his state, she couldn't help asking: "Is it because of the martial arts conference?"

Gongsun Qing did not answer, neither denying nor admitting.

"Look at you like this, it's probably done, otherwise you wouldn't be so frowning."

Gongsun Qing let out a long sigh, looked at Li Shishi and said, "Madam, I don't know. Now Prime Minister Zuo is in full swing in the court. In addition, the emperor's health is deteriorating. I'm afraid it's not until the seventh prince has the ability to inherit the rule. It’s about to change hands.”

"What's going on? You're not the type to say that kind of dejected talk."

"In the early court, the emperor was so angry that he vomited blood. Prime Minister Zuo took this opportunity to bring up the matter of summoning talented people into the palace to refine the longevity pill for the emperor. This is nonsense. It was changed to a martial arts competition, and now the ministers of the DPRK and China are trying their best to dissuade it, but they still can't change this matter."

"Wait." Li Shishi interrupted him: "You mean to call capable people and strangers into the palace now?"

Gongsun Qing looked at her and nodded: "That's right."

"This is too nonsense, Prime Minister Zuo is not waiting for an opportunity to control the imperial city on the grounds of summoning capable people and strangers."

"That's exactly what I'm worried about." Gongsun Qing nodded.

"So Prime Minister Zuo can call capable people and strangers into the palace, but can other people?" Li Shishi asked.

"What do you mean Ma'am?" Gongsun Qing was somewhat puzzled.

"If someone debunks that the longevity technique is a scam, will the left minister be very angry, or even become angry?"
