Today, Zhangsun Wuji had left the morning court and finished handling the political affairs at hand. He had rushed to the Drunken Heaven Manor early in the morning.
"It's over, it's over. It's already noon. I reckon it's over for today.”
On the way to Drunken Heaven Manor, Zhangsun Wuji was secretly regretting in his heart.
However, he was the Prime Minister of the Great Tang. He couldn't possibly go to the Drunken Cloud Inn to listen to the lectures without even dealing with the government affairs in his hands, right?
If that was the case, even if he was Li Shiming's uncle, Li Shiming would still be scared.
Logically speaking, Li Yi had embarrassed him yesterday, so he should not have come today.
However, he had no choice. Li Yi's Journey to the West was too good. Whether it was at home or when he was dealing with government affairs, the image of Journey to the West would always appear in his mind.
It was impossible for him not to listen to Journey to the West.
It was because the feeling of not listening to Journey to the West was too unbearable.
Just like a drug addict, if he didn't gamble, his heart would itch.
When they arrived at the Drunken Sky Restaurant, there were twenty to thirty people squeezing inside.
Zhangsun Wuji got off the sedan chair and saw so many people standing at the door.
He found a young man who was dressed in an extraordinary blue robe and was squeezing in."There are so many people at the door. What happened inside?”
The young man turned around and glanced at Zhangsun Wuji, not recognizing that this old man was the Prime Minister of the Great Tang.
"Old man, go away. I don't have time for you. Master Li Yi is reading a book inside.”
That youth said with an impatient look. Then, he immediately turned around and continued to squeeze into the Drunken Sky Restaurant.
Being looked down upon by this youth, not only did Zhangsun Wuji not get angry, he even came to a realization and said,""So that storyteller's name is Li Yi!”
Then, his thoughts turned. At this time, that person said that Li Yi's master was still inside telling a story. In other words, Li Yi's story had not ended today?
Zhangsun Wuji, who had originally come to Drunken Sky Restaurant with a glimmer of hope, was extremely excited when he thought of this.
Then, he squeezed his way into the Drunken Sky Restaurant.
Fortunately, the Drunken Sky Restaurant had changed the place where Li Yi would tell the story from the second floor to the first floor. Compared to the second floor, the first floor was larger and could accommodate more people.
Although it had just started, there were more people coming to listen to Li Yi's story today. However, it was still barely enough to accommodate them.
After squeezing for a while, Zhangsun Wuji squeezed into the Drunken Sky Restaurant.
Zhangsun Wuji wasn't surprised when he saw Drunken Sky Tower move Li Yi's storytelling location from the second floor to the first floor.
It was obvious that the second floor was too small. Li Yi said that the book would not be there for long.
After entering the Drunken Sky Restaurant, Zhangsun Wuji found a seat and sat down. When he heard what he said, his heart instantly turned cold.
Because he couldn't understand.
As he had arrived late yesterday and had just arrived halfway, he had missed out a lot of content. This made him completely confused when he heard Li Yi's story.
"If I had known earlier, I would have come yesterday no matter what!”
Zhangsun Wuji was extremely regretful as he thought to himself.
The plot that Li Yi was talking about on the stage, such as changing the Life and Death Book and messing up the underworld, was very touching to him.
However, due to the lack of the previous plot, although it was extremely exciting, he felt that something was missing.
This missing part made his heart itch like a cat, wanting to know.
Cui-er stood beside Du He. She widened her eyes and looked at Li Yi, who was on the storytelling stage and seemed to be thinking about the world.
She always felt that Li Yi was very powerful.
To be able to write such a good poem that spread throughout the entire capital overnight, and to tell such a beautiful, thrilling, and unbelievable story that was sought after by so many people.
She felt that Li Yi was more powerful than all the other scholars she had met before.
"Unfortunately, Li Yi's master is a monk. If he wasn't a monk, it would be even more perfect.”
Cui-er admired Li Yi and thought to herself.
She was already Du He's subordinate, so of course, she had no thoughts about Li Yi.
However, she had an inexplicable admiration for Li Yi, who had saved her at the critical moment and was not the person she loved.
It was the same logic as how those little girls in the future worshipped idols and celebrities.
Soon, an hour passed.
"Master Li Yi, you're right!”
"I will reward Master Li Yi with 300 wen.”
"I'll reward Master Li Yi with 500 wen.”
"I will reward Master Li Yi with 200 wen.”
……
Amidst a round of crazy applause, a large number of givers and bounties appeared.
Compared to yesterday and the day before yesterday, the number of people who donated this time had increased a lot. There were already people who donated a sky-high price of 500 wen.
After coming to this world for a few days, Li Yi was no longer ignorant of the prices of goods in the Great Tang.
The Great Tang was using the Kaiyuan Tongbao that was ordered to be forged during the reign of Emperor Gaozu Li Yuan.
Because this was still the beginning of the Great Tang, the prices of goods in the Great Tang were not high. The standard market price was five wen per bushel of rice.
A bucket of rice was equivalent to 10.5 kilograms in the future.
In other words, in the Great Tang, twenty wen was enough for a family of three to live on for a month.
500 copper coins was not a small sum of money. It was equivalent to two years of living expenses for an ordinary family.
To be able to listen to Li Yi's storytelling and give Li Yi a reward, it proved that these people had extraordinary identities and financial strength.
After resting for an hour, Li Yi continued to tell the story…
After two hours of cultivation and word of mouth, more people came to listen to Li Yi's story.
Even the first floor of the Drunken Sky Restaurant, which was more than half the size of the second floor, was packed.
The guests who came later had no seats and could only stand in the aisle.
In the end, the entire first floor of the Drunken Sky Restaurant was completely packed with people. There was not even a place to stand anymore.
There was really no way to squeeze people in. Many people could only stand at the entrance of the Drunken Sky Restaurant and listen. Even the entrance of the Drunken Sky Restaurant was blocked.
More and more people were crowding outside the door, and there was even a long line.
The line stretched for more than ten meters until it reached Vermilion Bird Street.
There were also some customers who stuck their heads in to listen to Li Yi's storytelling. They climbed on the window and pressed down on each other, almost blocking the window.
The light on the first floor of the Drunken Sky Restaurant was completely blocked, and it was pitch black inside.
Wang Fugui had no choice but to ask the waiter to light the candles on the first floor of Drunken Sky Restaurant.
