Li Yuan's method was simple. Few people who could become emperors were pushovers. In this critical period, if Emperor An knew that there was a capable person among the people, he would definitely send someone to invite him. Long Ao understood that he had to make a scene right under Tian Zi's nose to attract his attention. He might not be able to do anything else, but when it came to making a scene, it was the common trait of monkeys. Sun Wukong was an example. Long Ao was not someone to be trifled with.
However, this time, he couldn't mess around without a bottom line. If it turned into a human version of the mess in the Heavenly Palace, it would backfire. For the sake of his face, even if he had extraordinary divine power, he would still be chased away by Emperor An. That would not be worth it. Hence, Long Ao spent the entire day thinking about what to do.
"Brother Long, what are you thinking about? Can you tell me?" Xiao Longnu noticed that Long Ao had been frowning the entire afternoon. It was obvious that he was thinking about something, so she asked him about it during dinner. Long Ao heard this and shook his head." It's nothing, Long Er." "Oh right, what's the matter?" Xiao Longnu sat down and said," Can't I call you if there's nothing? "I saw you frowning all afternoon. I was worried about you." As she spoke, she turned her head unhappily. Long Ao smiled and said," Alright, Long Er, it's my fault. I'll apologize to you, okay? "Alright, let's eat." Xiao Longnu wasn't angry to begin with, so when she heard Long Ao admit defeat, she smiled and started eating. Li Yan looked at the two of them and felt that they were really interesting.
Long Ao was indeed thinking about something just now, but that smile was also real because he had already thought of a way. If Huan Xuan wanted to control power, he would not only have to monopolize the political power but also the financial power. The political power could not make him powerless in a short period of time, but if he wanted to control the financial power, as long as Long Ao caused trouble in Huan Xuan's shop for a few days, it would be difficult for Emperor An not to notice him.
In the next few days, Long Ao and Li Yan found out about Huan Xuan's shop and started to stir up trouble everywhere. Of course, they were not just fooling around. They had to have a strategy. Huan Xuan was not a good person in the eyes of the workers, so Long Ao used the people to incite them to go on an ancient version of the workers 'strike, causing Huan Xuan to lose 5,000 taels of silver in a week. Long Ao's ruckus not only alarmed Huan Xuan, but also Emperor An and Sima Dezong.
When Huan Xuan received the notice, it was the third day since Long Ao started causing trouble. He immediately ordered Long Ao to be arrested, but he returned empty-handed every time. The strikes became more frequent. He tried to kill the chicken to warn the monkeys, but it was useless. Mr. Lu Xun was right. If they did not die in silence, they would explode in silence. These workers were usually like explosives. No matter how the boss beat them, they would silently endure it. It was as if they were accumulating explosives. Now, they were ignited by Long Ao. Huan Xuan couldn't calm down either.
" Your Excellency, the foremen of the West Street rice shop are also on strike," a soldier ran to the front hall of Huan Mansion and said hurriedly. Huan Xuan was also shocked and stood up," What?"!”，A few days ago, they were only striking restaurants and inns, but now they were striking daily necessities. Unfortunately, it was not that simple." Your Excellency, those foremen not only stopped work, but also robbed all the rice in the shop." The soldier's words made Huan Xuan sit straight on the chair as if he had been struck by lightning. After a while, Huan Xuan gritted his teeth and said fiercely,"Catch the troublemaker!" Catch him!" The soldier immediately gave the order.
In the Imperial Palace, Emperor An was so happy that he couldn't close his mouth. He said to the chief eunuch Wang Fu in the bedroom,"Haha, this is enough to make Huan Xuan busy for a while. Oh, I heard that the workers 'strike this time was instigated by one person." Wang Fu immediately replied respectfully,"Yes, Your Majesty, I heard that it was a foreigner who came because he heard that Huan Xuan had offended his superior." The old eunuch could only be said to have offended his superior in front of the emperor. After Emperor An heard this, his eyes lit up and he muttered,"Talent, talent…" Wang Fu had served Emperor An for more than ten years, so he naturally could understand what Emperor An meant, so he said,"Emperor, should we recruit this person into the palace? However, Huan Xuan has been arrested for so long but he hasn't been caught. This person is quite difficult to find." Emperor An's eager eyes dimmed when he heard this. He shook his head and said to Wang Fu,"Alright, I'm a little tired.""You may leave." Wang Fu tactfully said,"I'll take my leave." Then he left. However, he secretly decided that he had to find Long Ao and the others to please Emperor An.
At this moment, Long Ao was giving a speech to the workers in the underground base. As for the content of the speech, he naturally chose some suitable words from Old Ma's Capital. Of course, the Capital could not be instilled too thoroughly. If so, these workers might rebel against the imperial court now. This was not what Long Ao wanted to see. He just wanted them to feel that they had the right to live a better life and not be exploited by people like Huan Xuan.
The speech lasted until night. After the speech, Long Ao dismissed himself. After the workers left, he cast an invisibility spell and returned to the inn. " Brother Long, you're back. I'll get the waiter to heat up the dishes." Xiao Longnu had been waiting for Long Ao at the door every day. Long Ao patted her head and said," I told you long ago that I'd be back so late. You don't have to wait for me. You should be sleeping in bed now." Xiao Longnu smiled and said," Brother Long, I'm not sleepy. I'll get the waiter to heat up the dishes." After saying that, Xiao Longnu ran to the kitchen. Long Ao looked at her back and thought," Long 'er seems to have improved her way of sticking to people now." He knows how to use his feelings now. Hehe, but that's good too. Only then can he get married in the future. If Nüwa knew what he was thinking, she would probably beat him up…
Long Ao returned to his room and found Li Yuan eating supper at the table." Brother Yuan, why aren't you asleep?" Long Ao asked.”，In order to make things easier, Long Ao moved Li Yuan over and the two of them stayed in the same room. Li Yuan drank a mouthful of porridge and said," Brother Long, I have something to tell you. How can you sleep?”，At this moment, Xiao Longnu also came. She actually personally brought supper. Li Yuan laughed." Big Sister Ao really knows how to care for Big Brother Long." Xiao Longnu's face turned red. Long Ao also knocked Li Yuan's head awkwardly and said," You're a little kid, but you're a big kid. What nonsense are you spouting?"”，Li Yuan chuckled and said," Oh, you're angry because I said the right thing. Haha." Xiao Longnu was shy. She put down her supper and ran out.
Long Ao glared at Li Yuan fiercely and said," Look at what you've done." However, Li Yuan did not buy it. He smiled and said," Big Brother Long, your heart aches for Sister Ao." Long Ao looked at his cheeky smile and shook his head helplessly. Although Li Yuan was very smart, he was still a twelve-year-old child. He was really playful. He could not beat or scold him, so he could only give up. "Tell me, what do you want to tell me?”Long Ao said as he drank his porridge. Li Yuan stopped joking and said seriously,"I think the commotion over the past few days has already attracted Emperor An's attention." Long Ao put down his bowl and asked,"How did you know?"”，"You've caused such a huge commotion, and Huan Xuan hasn't caught you for so many days. How could Emperor An not notice?”After Li Yuan finished speaking, he asked with admiration,"Speaking of which, where did you hear those words?" " He looks quite impressive." Long Ao smiled and said," You don't need to know that. If you want to say it, you can only say two words."”Li Yuan asked. Long Ao leaned close to Li Yuan's ear and said " secret " with a smile. Then, he laughed loudly.
Li Yuan pulled a long face and complained," It won't hurt you to say it."" Then what did you mean by what you said just now?”Long Ao asked after laughing. Li Yuan also said with a smile," Hehe, it's a secret." Long Ao laughed and scolded," You're still going along with the flow? Tell me quickly, or I'll beat you up." Li Yuan coughed and said," What I mean is that it's time for Emperor An to find you. Of course, you can't let Huan Xuan know." Long Ao snorted and said," If I can't even do this, then I'll be a Chaos Supreme Saint for nothing." Ever since Long Ao used this title, he had been habitually mentioning it.
Long Ao's idea was simple. He just needed to tell Emperor An in his dreams. This way, he could tell Emperor An that he was looking for him secretly without Huan Xuan finding out. After tidying up the things on the table, Long Ao brought them to the kitchen and returned to his room. He locked the door and asked Li Yuan to guard the door and windows before he started to circulate his cultivation.
