In the Public House.
The atmosphere was very heavy.
Li Yuan and the others were worried.
The prophecies and folk songs circulating in Luoyang undoubtedly put Li Yuan and the entire High Duke's Public House on fire.
Yang Guang was naturally suspicious, and his suspicion of Li Yuan was not just a day or two.
Now.
If such a thing were to spread, it would undoubtedly increase Yang Guang's suspicion of Li Yuan.
Being suspected by a supreme emperor who held the power of life and death was a very terrifying thing.
It was normal for Li Yuan to be so anxious and melancholic at this moment.
Su Changyu frowned at this.
This matter was very tricky.
Frustrated, Li Yuan picked up his teacup and took a sip of cold tea. After putting the teacup down, he looked at Su Changyu.
Li Yuan's eyes lit up when he saw Su Changyu.
This son-in-law of his had always been resourceful. Perhaps he had some good ideas?
Thinking of this, Li Yuan immediately said to Su Changyu,
"Changyu, how do you think we should resolve this situation? How can I resolve His Majesty's suspicion of me?”
Li Jiancheng, Li Yuanji, and Li Xiuning's eyes lit up when Li Yuan spoke.
Their eyes flashed with anticipation.
Su Changyu was a talented and resourceful man.
Perhaps, he had a good idea?
Su Changyu frowned when he heard Li Yuan's words and saw everyone looking at him.
In history, when Li Yuan faced Yang Guang's suspicion, he pretended to be sick and confused, deceiving Yang Guang and getting away with it.
At present, this was indeed the most feasible method, and it was also the method with the least side effects.
After a moment of silence, Su Changyu spoke under everyone's expectant gaze.
"Father-in-law, the reason why His Majesty is so suspicious of you is because you have a high position, a strong reputation, and are still young and strong…"
Hearing Su Changyu's words, Li Yuan frowned deeply and nodded slightly.
He naturally knew that Yang Guang was suspicious of him because of his high status and reputation.
"Then you mean…"
Li Yuan asked Su Changyu after a moment of silence.
"Self-defilement! Pretending to be sick and muddle-headed, so that His Majesty would think that father-in-law could not achieve great things and was not a threat.”
"His Majesty will only look down on you if he thinks you're no longer a threat, father-in-law," Su Changyu said seriously.
As long as His Majesty doesn't pay attention to you, you'll be safe.”
Hearing Su Changyu's suggestion, Li Yuan fell silent.
A minister who was always on the Emperor's mind was definitely unlucky. Li Yuan knew this very well.
"Sigh…"
" It's fine." Li Yuan sighed." For now, your idea is the most feasible. Let's do as you say…"
Li Yuan didn't have a better idea at the moment, so he decided to accept Su Changyu's suggestion.
Hearing Li Yuan's words.
Li Jiancheng, Li Yuanji, and the others felt extremely depressed when they saw that he seemed to have aged a lot in an instant. Their eyes flickered with a sullen light.
Li Yuan looked at the situation and sighed repeatedly. He sat on the chair in pain.
"Your Majesty's decree has arrived!"
Just as everyone was sighing, a sharp voice came from outside the courtyard.
Hearing this voice, everyone's body trembled. Li Yuan's face flashed with a trace of fear.
A pale-faced, beardless eunuch walked in with his head held high.
"Eunuch Li!"
Upon seeing the eunuch, Li Yuan immediately stood up to welcome him.
This was Yang Guang's eunuch, and he had great power.
"His Majesty summoned Su Changyu to the palace!”
Eunuch Li didn't even look at Li Yuan as he read Yang Guang's decree in a sharp voice. He then looked at Su Changyu and said,"Young Master Su, come with me."
Su Changyu and the others were surprised.
This imperial edict was actually not for Li Yuan.
Why was Yang Guang looking for Su Changyu?
No one could understand.
Su Changyu nodded and said a few words to Li Xiu Ning before entering the palace with Eunuch Li.
……
In the Imperial Palace.
Emperor Yang Guang and Empress Xiao Meiniang sized up Su Changyu.
This banished immortal whose name shook the entire Great Sui Dynasty, even the Emperor and Empress who were in the depths of the palace had heard of him like thunder.
Yang Guang looked at Su Changyu with a hint of admiration in his eyes.
"Zhen has always heard that you are talented, your poems are the best in the world, and you are famous in the Great Sui.
The reputation of banished immortals is like thunder in our ears.
After seeing him today, he was indeed a talented man.”
Yang Guang stared at Su Ze for a while before revealing a smile on his face.
"Your Majesty, you flatter me."
Su Changyu was very calm and unperturbed in the face of the controversial Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty.
His performance made Yang Guang think even more highly of him.
Beside him, Empress Xiao was also looking at Su Changyu with admiration.
"Tomorrow, I will meet the envoys of the Turks, Khitans, Silla, Tocharian, and Anguo…"
Yang Guang was very satisfied with Su Changyu's current performance and said," At this time of the coming dynasty, I would like to invite someone to compose a poem to praise the great cause of the Great Sui Dynasty…"
"I heard that your poetry is not bad, so I want to test you to see if you really have real talent.”
"If you can satisfy me, I will let you attend the grand meeting of the country tomorrow and compose a poem for the prosperity of the Great Sui Dynasty…"
Hearing Yang Guang's words, Su Changyu's eyes flashed with surprise.
Just as he was in shock.
A smile appeared on Yang Guang's face. He glanced at Empress Xiao and said to Su Changyu,
"The Empress is a natural beauty. You can first compose a poem for my empress.”
When Empress Xiao, who was beside Yang Guang, heard this, her face immediately revealed a trace of an expectant smile.
