At the end of the second year of Tianshou.
The day before the new year.
The imperial court had just finished reporting on their work.
All the officials returned to the capital.
Even Li Xian, Emperor Zhongzong of the Tang Dynasty, who had been demoted to King of Luling and imprisoned in Fangzhou, was allowed to return to Chang 'an for the New Year by Wu Zetian, which was rare.
The Prince of Xiang's estate.
Li Dan looked at Saburo Long Ji, who had just returned from outside and was in high spirits, and asked,""Your third uncle and his family entered the city today?”
Just as the end of the year was approaching, his brother Li Xian was allowed to return to Chang 'an.
The situation of the father and son had also changed a lot.
Previously, following San Lang's suggestion, he analyzed that the evil creature's assassination was very likely a self-directed trick.
It was obvious that San Lang's analysis made the Sacred Emperor very happy.
They removed the Thousand Bull Guards and allowed the servants to go out.
A few days ago, they even allowed the family members to enter and leave the palace as they pleased before the Lantern Festival.
Of course, they were not allowed to leave Chang 'an without permission.
Even so, he was so happy that he danced around.
Of course, even so, Li Dan himself did not dare to step out of the Imperial Residence.
He only asked his family to go out and ask for information.
"We have entered the city. Third Uncle has settled down in the empty King Ying's estate next door. I am worried that there will be gossip in the court, so I did not dare to pay my respects to Third Uncle.”
Li Dan nodded in satisfaction." You did the right thing. We have to behave ourselves now. We can't get too close to your Third Uncle and the others.”
"Where is that little bastard?"
Li Longji knew what his father wanted to ask and replied,""In order to win, Wu Chengsi used all sorts of methods. He even didn't hesitate to select experts from the Thousand Bull Guard to join Alohai's competitive team.”
"Right now, the old city is in a state of intense anxiety.”
"Li Xian's team and A Luohai's team have been able to overcome all obstacles.”
"I don't know if the competitive teams established by the aristocratic families are intentional or if they are really weak, but they keep losing to the two competitive teams.”
"Everyone in the city is talking about it. The two teams will probably decide the final battle.”
"Aunt's gambling den has already set a sky-high price for the bet on who will win.”
"Sacred Martial Zhou's team wins, 1 to 100!”
"Li Xian's team wins, 1 to 10.”
Li Dan couldn't help but frown." Your aunt thinks that little bastard will win?”
"Do you think that your aunt has already formed an alliance with that bastard, as the outside world has said?”
Li Longji smiled and said confidently,""Father, it's impossible!"
"Li Xian is a thorn in Imperial Grandmother's side. No matter how stupid aunt is, she will not ally with Li Xian.”
"I feel that Aunt is taking revenge on Wu Chengsi for framing her.”
"Moreover, I think that Auntie is going to suffer a huge setback this time.”
"Most of the teams participating in this month's competition are from Guanzhong Gate.”
"Father, you should know very well that although these people claim that they are doing this for the honor of the capital and for the Sage Emperor, they are actually eager to see the Sage Emperor make a fool of himself.”
"Watching the competitive team under the banner of the Sacred Martial Zhou lose in the end.”
"I'm guessing that during this period of time, these people must have used their full strength against the Arohai Sacred Martial Arts Competition Team to exhaust the experts of the Arohai Sacred Martial Arts Competition Team.”
"He went easy on Li Xian.”
"If that's the case, then the Sacred Martial Zhou's team is undoubtedly stronger!”
"Auntie, the odds are 1 to 100. Once the Sacred Martial Zhou team wins…"
"Furthermore, I heard that during this period of time, the kings of the Wu Clan bet a million strings of coins on Aluo Hai's victory in my aunt's gambling den!”
"Father, once aunt loses, not to mention the others, just the money from the Wu family kings alone can make aunt go bankrupt!”
Li Dan tapped the table lightly.
Suddenly, he clapped his hands." We still have 50,000 strings of cash left in our residence. Go and take it all out. Bet on the Sacred Martial Zhou team winning!”
"At that time, your aunt will owe us a favor. We can also use our actions to support your Imperial Grandmother and express our feelings.”
"Father," Li Longji smiled,"I think so too."”
……
Dong dong dong…
Old City.
The drums rumbled.
"Windraiser Squad will definitely win! Windraiser Squad will win!"
"Team Sacred Martial Arts will definitely win! Team Sacred Martial Arts will definitely win!"
……
At the edge of the wide land, with their backs against the city wall, the wooden steps were filled with people.
Even if it was winter and the wind was cold, it could not stop the people's enthusiasm.
Most of the people sitting on the steps were from the capital. They were either the children of wealthy families or the children of wealthy merchants.
In short, these young, rich, and idle people had become frequent visitors to the old city since the powerful families in Guanzhong had formed competitive teams to participate.
These children of the wealthy families became the regular customers of the wine shops, tea houses, and inns opened by the people of the old city.
Even the housing prices in the old city changed three times a day.
Many commoners took the opportunity to sell their houses at high prices.
With a huge amount of wealth, under Li Longfan's arrangement, he quietly moved to Chang 'an.
Most of the people who were willing to sell their houses at this time were the strong men of the Embroidered Uniform Guards.
The Jinyiwei strongmen needed an appropriate time to move to Chang 'an without attracting anyone's attention.
On the contrary, the ordinary people were more likely to hold onto the houses in their hands and wait for the price to rise.
Now, even the common people knew that with the glory of the Great Tang, the properties in the Old City still had a lot of room for appreciation.
The rich and powerful were not willing to stay in an inn.
When they arrived at the old city, they bought a lot of houses and rebuilt them.
At the same time, it also created more jobs for the people in the old city.
The Carpenter Team, Blacksmith Team, Youth Team, and Masons Team in the Old City had a clear division of labor. The quality of their work was good, and their speed was fast. This also surprised the rich and powerful.
Everyone in the old city had received benefits that they had never dared to imagine before.
Even the citizens of the capital began to envy the old city.
Li Xian, who had made all of this happen, naturally became the most grateful person in the hearts of the people in the old city.
The simple citizens of the old city knew very well who had given them all this.
"Look, the Prince of Shouchun is here!"
"Could it be that the continuous victories of the Sacred Martial Army have made the Regional King feel pressured?”
……
In the audience stands, the scions of the aristocratic families watched as Li Xian appeared with Li Longfan and the others and walked towards the city tower. They discussed in low voices.
Through the situation of the old city's competition in the past few days.
It was a bet between Princess Taiping and the Wu gambling den.
Anyone could feel that the battle for Li Wu's glory had reached its climax.
All the influential families in Guanzhong widened their eyes and waited for the result!
