Time flies quickly, and ten days have passed in a blink of an eye!

Since Li Tian asked the Prefect Li to go back and tell the consuls of the Three Kingdoms that they would attack even if they were to attack, the world seemed to have become much calmer.

For ten consecutive days, the entire Guangdong and Guangxi region was calm and there was nothing wrong.

However, Li Tian could see that this was actually the tranquility before the storm came.

Everything is like this, and there will be a period of peace before it becomes uncontrollable.

This is the time of peace now.

Li Tian was not in a hurry. During this period, when he was free, he went to drink tea and eat delicious food.

This kind of life is a leisurely life, looking completely stress-free.

However, on the fifteenth day, Li Tian received an imperial edict.

The person who sent the order was a prince from the capital. He came to tell Li Tian that the Empress Dowager asked him to get up immediately and go to the palace to meet him.

After receiving the imperial edict, Li Tian of course had a good meal and drank to entertain this prince.

And he himself found Huang Feihong and Aunt Thirteen to discuss this matter together, whether to go to the capital or not.

For this reason, Li Tian booked a restaurant, and he and Huang Feihong and Aunt Thirteen were in a private room, eating and discussing things.

Outside the box, there were some soldiers standing, who were guarding the gate.

Li Tian sat at the round table. He looked at Huang Feihong and Aunt Thirteen and said, "This time the Empress Dowager announced that I went to the capital. There may be something very important. What do you two think about it?"

In this box, there were only Li Tian and the others, so Huang Feihong naturally didn't hide anything.

He thought for a moment and said, "In my opinion, it is better not to go to the capital this time. We are in the south and don't know the situation in the capital. Besides, Lord Li, you have never seen the Queen Mother. You go there rashly. Maybe the Queen Mother has ulterior motives, so what should I do?"

At this time, Aunt Thirteen also said from the side: "Yes, I heard that the Queen Mother has a strange temper. If something bad happens, it will be miserable."

Li Tian didn't care much about this.

He raised his lips and said, "You don't have to worry about these things. Li Tian, ​​who can sit in the position of Governor General of Guangdong and Guangxi, is not something that I can get. If I deal with me so easily, I won't have to stay here until today. The Queen Mother came to me, maybe I know that I have 20,000 elite troops, and I might want to please me."

Then, Li Tian drank a glass of wine and said calmly: "Don't worry, I have to go this trip to the capital!"

After saying that, Li Tian put all the wine glasses heavily on the table, full of momentum.

Li Tian has always been a domineering person, and the decisions he makes rarely change.

This time, since he decided to go to the capital to meet the empress dowager, there would be no change.

Both Huang Feihong and Aunt Thirteen knew this, so they didn't say anything more.

Huang Feihong picked up the wine glass and said to Li Tian: "I wish you a smooth life this time!"

"I wish you a safe return!" Aunt Thirteenth also picked up the wine glass.

Li Tian laughed loudly and said, "Okay, let's have another drink!"

So Li Tian also poured himself a glass of wine and clinked glasses with Huang Feihong and Aunt Thirteen.

The three of them ate and drank in this restaurant for a while and then returned to the yamen.

After all, there are still many things to do, waiting for Li Tian to deal with. Li Tian cannot stay here for too long.

After returning to the yamen, Li Tian handled some official duties.

In the evening, Li Tian invited another banquet for the eunuch who came from the capital, as if he was Eunuch Wang.

The next day, Li Tian packed up and prepared, and directly took some guards to the capital with Eunuch Wang.

Fortunately, there are still trains between Beijing and Guangzhou.

Li Tian and the others took the train and were able to arrive in the capital in just two or three days.

However, there are regulations for going to the capital. Any local officials who come to the capital should not bring too many guards and soldiers, otherwise they will not be given to the capital.

After all, the Queen Mother still attaches great importance to her safety. She is afraid of death and is afraid of being hurt.

In this way, Li Tian took two days and three nights of train before he arrived in the capital.

After arriving in the capital, Li Tian couldn't help but complain that the train now is so slow.

Originally, this distance would only take one day to reach in the twenty-first century.

And in this era, it takes several times more time.

But there is nothing to do about this. Some things are like this and you have to follow the rules of the times.

When I first came to the capital in the late Qing Dynasty, Li Tian thought this place was quite good, at least people came and went, and it was very lively.

However, there were too many poor people in this era. Even in the capital, there were poor people begging everywhere.

Seeing this, Li Tian naturally gave some charity.

But he knew that it would be of no benefit to give alms to these people by himself, and he could only save them for a while, but not for a lifetime.

Eunuch Wang still has some face in the capital. After he returned to the capital, some dignitaries wanted to help him with the help of the people.

Of course, I brought Li Tian with me by the way.

After all, Li Tian is also a local official, the governor of Guangdong and Guangxi, and his status is not low.

Moreover, some people in the capital knew that Li Tian took advantage of Nalan Xiong's power to take office.

So many people attribute Li Tian to Nalan Xiong's confidant.

After all, after Nalan Xiong returned from Guangzhou last time, he recommended Li Tian as the governor of Guangdong and Guangxi, and he told the empress dowager himself.

Therefore, during the banquet at the restaurant in the evening, Li Tian was respected by many high-ranking officials of the court.

But Li Tian also realized that the court was already terminally ill, and all the ministers were only concerned about their own food, drink and enjoyment, and at the wine table, they did not talk about state affairs at all.

It is difficult for Li Tian and them to integrate these wine bags together.

So, Li Tian, ​​who felt a little unhappy, sat aside by himself, drank there, and looked at the view outside the window.

After all, the place where they eat at night is one of the best restaurants in the capital.

Li Tian looked down from the window and could see the restaurant's lobby.

In the hall of the restaurant, there is a young and beautiful girl playing and singing a song in front of many diners.

Although the voices around were noisy and many people were talking loudly, the little girl was still working hard to sing the song.

Because it is very likely that if she doesn't do well today, she will lose her job tomorrow, and she may even have a problem with eating.

Li Tian looked at the little girl and was attracted by her pretty face.

She felt that a little girl who worked so hard was really touching, at least Li Tian was a little moved.

However, just as Li Tian was staring at the little girl, a young man walked into the hall on the first floor. He was wearing jewelry and looked like a rich man.

As soon as he came here, he asked his little sister to take away the girl who sang the song.
