"Ma'am, what you said is a joke. In previous years, the Qiuju Conference was mainly based on the tribute from the small countries of Fanbang. It is impossible for the left minister to lose the big because of small things. Besides, the border has been imminent. Although Liu Quan has sent troops to suppress it, there is no way to prevent it. People with wolfish ambitions take the opportunity to cause trouble."

"That's it." Li Shishi smiled: "Why is the prince so worried? Since the emperor wants to hold a martial arts competition, let him do it. This so-called martial arts competition is a farce. It's better to have fun alone Lele. The more people involved in this kind of thing, the more exciting it will be."

Gongsun Qing shook his head: "My lady's words are simple, how can Zuo Xiang be the kind of person who is slaughtered by others? Now that Qiu Juhui entrusts the emperor with full power to Zuo Xiang, how can he allow people who don't trust him to enter?" What about Qiu Ju?"

"It's not unreasonable for the prince to worry this time, but I always feel that this is an opportunity. If I can make good use of it, even if I can't turn defeat into victory, at least I can temporarily suppress the left. It’s just a play, is it possible that the prince really thought that Prime Minister Zuo would find some kind of powerful master to perform a play for the emperor? If he can really find a master, why don’t he control the emperor and coerce the emperor after writing the will? Wouldn't it be faster for the emperor to order the princes?"

Gongsun Qing pondered for a moment, then suddenly raised his eyes to look at Li Shishi.

He frowned slightly, then smiled lightly and said: "I have written down what you said, my lady, what you said is not unreasonable."

A few days later, when Gongsun Qing went to court, Li Shishi finished feeding the child and went out.

In fact, she has been in the capital for so long, and the number of times she has gone out can be counted on one hand.

Now that Yun'er was born safely, she was really depressed staying in this palace, so she wanted to take this opportunity to go outside for a little air.

Walking in the most bustling and bustling area of ​​the capital, listening to the high-pitched cries of vendors, all this made her feel very excited.

There are people coming and going on the street, among them are many people wearing Taoist robes or monk uniforms.

Looking at their state, it is likely that they came here for the Qiu Ju Club.

After buying some cloth, Li Shishi decided to go back.

But when he turned around, he almost collided with the oncoming young master.

Li Shishi was startled, hurriedly made a mistake, and looked up at the person coming.

She just felt a little familiar, as if she had seen it somewhere.

But he couldn't remember it for a while, so he bowed and said sorry, and walked away sideways.

Unexpectedly, when she was walking forward, the young man suddenly stopped her.

And came before her and blocked her way.

Li Shishi frowned, looked up at him: "Young Master, when are you here?"

The person on the opposite side shook the folding fan lightly, and looked at her with a faint smile, with a gentle and suave manner, but the eyebrows were slightly sick, and she seemed to be in poor health.

"We've met." He said, putting away his folding fan, with a smile on his face.

Li Shishi was stunned for a moment, and couldn't remember where she had seen him after watching for a long time.

"Young Master, I'm afraid I've made a mistake. I haven't seen you before."

"We met before, but it was a long time ago. I didn't expect to meet here. This can be regarded as a kind of fate."

Li Shishi withdrew the corners of her mouth, thinking that this person was sick.

She didn't want to talk nonsense with him, so she left without even saying goodbye.

He took a few more steps forward, but was stopped by the green smoke behind him: "My lord, please respect yourself, it's inappropriate to gossip on the street."

He ignored Qingyan, but still stood there and said to Li Shishi: "We met on the boat before."

Li Shishi was taken aback for a moment, then looked back at him, and finally recognized that this person seemed to be the son suffering from cough that he met on the shore that day.

But time has passed so long, and they just met by chance.

She felt that she didn't need to have anything to do with him.

So he only took one look, then turned around and walked away.

"Wait, madam, I have something important to ask for your help."

"Sorry, I don't have time."

"I know you are the wife of King Suiyuan." Seeing that Li Shishi was about to leave in a hurry, he hurriedly shouted.

Li Shishi didn't want to talk to him at all, so she still walked forward.

It didn't take long for her to shake off the strange man who was following her.

Qing Yan hugged a stack of cloths, she was tired and out of breath, Li Shishi saw that the sun was approaching noon, and looked at Qing Yan's slightly tired face, so she said: "Let's go back after eating."

Glancing left and right, seeing a restaurant not far away, Li Shishi raised her hand, pointed and said, "Let's go there, have something to eat, rest our feet and walk."

After that, she turned and went into the restaurant.

It's noon now, and the restaurant is overcrowded.

The two found a seat on the second floor and sat down. After ordering, Li Shishi propped her chin and watched.

The layout of this place is very similar to the Wu's restaurant in Baoquan Town. Now that she has been here for so long, she doesn't know if Aunt Wu and the others are doing well.

Has the store business been affected?

Thinking of those experiences in the restaurant before, although every day is very tiring, it is very fulfilling.

In today's life, although I don't worry about food and clothing, it is so restrictive that people have no freedom.

"Qingyan, are you saying that these officials are really not allowed to engage in business?"

"Why did Madam suddenly ask such a question?" Qing Yan was a little puzzled.

Li Shishi sighed and said: "When I didn't come to the capital, I ran a small restaurant. Now I have to give up because I live in the capital, and now I have a special status. Even if I want to open a small restaurant here, I'm afraid It's difficult."

"No." Qing Yan smiled: "Ma'am, I'm worrying too much. There is a rule in this court that officials are not allowed to engage in business, but like this kind of restaurant, Madam can still open it."

Li Shishi was taken aback, and asked: "Is this true?"

"En." Qing Yan nodded: "The wife of Lord Lu, Minister of Rites, opened a rouge shop on this street. Although officials and eunuchs have many restrictions on business, but according to the status of the prince, we can still buy such a shop. It can be opened, as long as the business does not expand, a restaurant is nothing."

What Qingyan said made Li Shishi's heart light up.

She had been thinking about it with the calendar for a long time before, but because of the delay due to many things, she didn't have so much time to delve into it.

If this is the case, will she be able to continue her unfinished business!

Thinking of this, she was a little excited, but in order to avoid accidents, she decided to go to the rouge shop that Qingyan mentioned.

Taking advantage of Xiao Er's time to serve the food, Li Shishi took Qing Yan's hand and asked her to sit beside her, and then said with a little excitement: "Then how about we go to that shop together after dinner?"
