Chapter 290 Happy Birthday (Part 2)
Of course, Li Muyun would not be beaten out. Others may not know the "Sword of Emperors", but the imperial guards who are scrambling in the palace every day are absolutely aware of it. So although some people are wearing a little "simple", the imperial guards guarding the gate still let him enter the palace, but the contemptuous look was accompanied all the way, as if they were afraid that someone would steal something in the palace.
As the saying goes, people rely on clothes, Buddha rely on gold clothes, the palace is magnificent, and countless high-ranking officials wear gorgeous clothes, showing the prosperous style of the Tang Dynasty.
Only Li Muyun, an alien, was wearing a torn linen cloth and a square scarf with a four-corner one. However, because he didn't have much hair on his head, the square scarf was a bit inappropriate.
Li Shimin sat high above, Empress Changsun sat beside him, and as Li Muyun swayed into the hall, everyone's eyes focused on him.
One of the younger ones jumped out: "Li Muyun, you are so brave. Your sister-in-law is doing her birthday today. You are so negligent. Could it be that you want to deceive the emperor?" This young man is in his twenties and is fair and clean. He is a little drifty when walking. I don't know if he is taking drugs or playing with the little girl.
Listening to the big hat the guy gave him, Li Muyun lifted his eyelids and glanced at the guy indifferently, ignoring him, and bowed to the lofty Li Shimin and Empress Changsun: "Grandman Li Muyun, see Your Majesty, Empress."
"Li Muyun, why are you here now?" Empress Changsun celebrated her birthday. Li Muyun was late and was wearing tattered clothes. In Li Shimin's opinion, this was just slapping himself in the face.
"Go back to Your Majesty, I am preparing gifts for the Empress." Li Muyun bowed and said.
"No, you are obviously arrogant because of your favor. Relying on your great trust in you, you do whatever you want!" Before Li Shimin could speak, the young man jumped out again just now.
Li Muyun rolled his eyes again and still ignored him. This guy whispered the emperor's brother at once, which was enough to show that he was Li Shimin's brother and Li Yuan's son. There was no need to ignore him like this. If he really had arguing with him in the hall, Li Muyun's temperament would have to kill him.
But now it is Queen Changsun’s birthday. If the trouble arises, it will definitely show that this sage of eternal sage will not be ashamed of. If the pillow wind blows in the future, Li Muyun cannot guarantee that his life will be able to survive.
But the facts proved that Li Muyun's choice was not wrong. Although Empress Changsun in the main seat did not show any expression to the young man, Li Shimin glanced at him with obvious disgust, and then continued to ask: "Since you said you should prepare a gift for the queen, then where is the gift?"
"Oh, here!" Li Muyun reached out and took out a small box from his arms.
"What is this?" Li Shimin waved his hand and signaled a eunuch behind him to take the things up.
"This is called perfume. On weekdays, just drop a few drops on your clothes, and the fragrance can surround you within a few hours." Li Muyun looked at Li Shimin and his wife, one with a small bottle, and looked in front of them, and answered simply.
"Oh." When Li Shimin heard that it was something that the woman used, he immediately lost interest and put the small bottle in his hand into Queen Changsun's hand.
But the young man just heard Li Muyun's explanation and said again: "Li Muyun, what do you mean? My princess..."
Li Muyun took out his ears impatiently, closed his mouth, and looked at the young man with his arms around.
To be honest, Li Muyun has never offended any royal family in Chang'an City. If he had to say that there was, he would only have Li Yuanchang's face once in Shanyin County.
So looking at the young man, Li Muyun had roughly guessed his identity, but this guy seemed really stupid. In order to attack him, he played this trick at Empress Changsun’s birthday party regardless of the occasion.
You should know that people who celebrate their birthdays at this time actually don’t care about what’s right or wrong. Do you want a peaceful atmosphere? No matter who disrupts the atmosphere, even if what he says makes sense, it will be difficult to get support.
However, the young man seemed not aware of this and was still chattering: "Li Muyun, are you trying to confuse the harem? You were a villain and were stripped down by the emperor's brother. He did not want to be loyal to the emperor and serve the country, but he made all kinds of messy things to flatter him all day long. What do you mean?"
Finally, Li Shimin couldn't stand it anymore, and slapped the table hard and said angrily to the young man: "Li Yuanchang, get out of here! Get back to your fiefdom, and you will be allowed to return to Beijing in the future!"
Sure enough, it was him. Li Muyun raised the corners of his mouth slightly. Dogs that could bite people generally would not bark, just like Han Ai, and Li Yuanchang, who barked wildly regardless of occasion or location. The intention was too obvious, so obvious that he was kicked by someone before he could bite people.
Li Yuanchang didn't expect that he was clearly helping Li Shimin to speak, but why was he scolded in the end? He looked back in surprise: "Emperor, brother, I..."
"Get out!" Li Shimin had a cold face and did not give Li Yuanchang a chance to explain. If you don't leave, I will send someone to beat you out.
Li Yuanchang was really angry and glared at Li Muyun, who seemed to be innocent, and said fiercely: "People with the surname Li, let's take a look!"
Li Muyun shrugged indifferently about Li Yuanchang's threat. He was just a prince without power and power. I was in my hand and represented the patrol. If the occasion was not wrong, I would have beaten him, and could I wait until he threatened him?
...
Li Yuanchang finally left, but Li Muyun's matter was not resolved. Empress Changsun was curious and opened the small bottle and smelled it. She immediately showed a hint of surprise on her face and she put it away casually.
Seeing this, Li Shimin's other concubines were a little jealous, but they were not jealous of Queen Changsun, but were jealous of the so-called perfume thing.
After all, Empress Changsun is the mother of a country. She has never seen any kind of treasure. After her birthday many times, she has never seen anyone put away any gifts. It can be seen that the perfume given by Li Muyun must be not ordinary.
Li Shimin also noticed Empress Changsun’s actions, and a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes and his heart moved slightly: “Li Muyun, your gift is too light, right? Do you look down on me?”
Hum? What does it mean? Li Muyun was still thinking about Li Yuanchang just now, but was stunned by Li Shimin's words
Who dares to look down on Li Shimin in this Tang Dynasty? Is it? Does anyone think that they have long life?
"Speak, why don't you talk anymore?" Li Shimin saw someone in a daze there, so he asked again.
"No, no, what is your Majesty saying? I..." Li Muyun was a person who was good at observing words and expressions. Through his speech, he had already looked around the faces of Li Shimin and Empress Changsun. He even did not let go of the faces of the important officials of the court sitting not far away. He had a clear judgment on the current situation in the lightning.
It turns out that in order to please his wife, His Majesty, the emperor thought the gift was too light, and he was afraid that his wife would use it in a few days and then there would be no place to find her, so he used her to vent her anger and planned to ask for an explanation and result from her.
Thinking of this, Li Muyun couldn't help but secretly thank his foresight, pointed to Hezi who was thrown on the table by Li Er and said, "Your Majesty, there is another thing in the box, you and the queen have not seen it yet."
"Oh? There is something else?" Li Shimin frowned, looked down at the box, and found a piece of paper full of words under the box.
Queen Changsun also saw the small piece of paper, reached out and picked it up. When she opened it, a smile immediately appeared on her face, and then sighed: "Li Muyun, this gift from me really makes it difficult for me to refuse."
"The Empress doesn't have to make things difficult. This is just Mu Yun's intention." Li Muyun said simply, but his heart was bleeding.
The one he gave was a perfume recipe. If it was kept in his own hands, I don’t know how much money he could exchange for.
However, for the sake of his own mind, he could not keep the formula himself. After all, he would stay by the moody emperor Li Shimin every day, and he would always find some reinforcements for himself. Even if he did something in the future, someone would say a few good things for him. This is the most important thing.
Queen Changsun is also a smart woman. After getting the formula for perfume, she also realized what this means.
As a woman, she already knew the value of this thing when she opened the perfume. Now that she has a formula, she also has a source of income. Compared with the precious luxury gifts sent by the nobles, it is undoubtedly much more valuable.
After all, it is impossible to sell those precious splendor, but perfume is OK. Compared with the two, the gift Li Muyun gave is not ordinary, not something that can be measured by thousands or tens of thousands of coins.
Li Shimin also saw some clues from his wife's expression. After taking the paper and seeing what was written on it, he was also very surprised.
Although he did not know the value of perfume, judging from the performance of Empress Changsun, it would be no big problem to sell that little thing. Considering that there are so many nobles in Chang'an City, the sales volume will probably not be very small.
Li Shimin is rich all over the world. In fact, this is just to say to outsiders. To put it bluntly, it is bragging. In fact, most of the money is piled up in the treasury. Even His Majesty the Emperor cannot spend whatever he wants.
