Outside the cloth village, there was a carriage parked in an alley somewhere on the street.
At a certain moment, a young voice came from the carriage: "Why is there no movement inside?"
"I don't know... Do you want me to go and have a look?" The driver of the coach looked back at the carriage and asked tentatively.
"No need." A voice came from the carriage: "Wait another quarter of an hour. If there is no news, just leave."
The coachman nodded, and just as he turned around, he saw several figures coming out of the shop and walking towards the carriage.
His complexion changed, and he was about to shake the reins to leave, when he turned around, he saw a man sitting on the other side of the carriage, smiling at him.
"Hello, brother."
…
Li Yi and Chen Chong stood in front of the carriage, looked at the carriage, and said, "Come down."
There was no movement in the carriage.
After an unknown amount of time, the curtain was lifted, and a young man came out of the carriage.
The moment he saw the young man, Chen Chong's face became very gloomy.
"Master Chen, please stay safe."
The young man in Chinese clothes tidied up his clothes and smiled at Chen Chong, like an old friend he hadn't seen for many years. More than ten guards appeared behind him at the same time.
"Who is this?" Li Yi looked at Chen Chong and asked.
"Cao Min..., I have met His Royal Highness Xin Wang." Chen Chong bowed slightly, already explaining the identity of the person in front of him.
Li Yi was startled, looked at Chen Chong, and asked, "Have you endured it?"
Chen Chong lowered his head and remained silent.
This is what it means to endure. After all, it is impossible for the current Chen family to compete with King Xin. Since he has endured, he has no reason not to.
Miss Chen San came out of the shop in a hurry, looked at Chen Chong, and said anxiously: "Second brother, I'm fine, don't be impulsive..."
Seeing the pale face of the white-haired woman and the bloodshot gauze on her hands, Li Yi sighed, turned around, looked at the young man, and asked, "Who are you?"
The young man looked at him with suspicion in his eyes: "Your Excellency?"
Li Yi arched his hands: "I'm Li Yi."
The young man's expression froze, and he soon smiled again, and said: "I just handed over the invitation to Dr. Li a few days ago, and the servants of the Li family said that Dr. Li was seriously ill and couldn't go out. I don't know what disease Dr. Li is suffering from. It's only been a few days, and it seems to be healed..."
Li Yi looked at him, and suddenly slapped his face. Before he could react, he asked, "Do you know what disease I'm suffering from now?"
"you… "
"Hysteria, intermittent hysteria, His Majesty's imperial decree, beating people in Kyoto is not illegal..."
Half of the young man's face was unconscious for a while, and a look of disbelief appeared on his face. The next moment, he pointed at him and said sharply, "Bold, I believe in Wang Li Zhe, how dare you..."
Li Yi asked puzzledly, "What do you believe?"
"Faith King Li Zhe!"
"What philosophy?"
"Faith King Li Zhe!"
"Why are you talking so loudly? What's wrong with being called Li Zhe? It's amazing to be called Li Zhe!"
"Bold, you actually teased me!"
…
Snapped!
Li Yi slapped him on the other side of the face again, looked at him and said, "What do you believe in philosophy, can young people straighten their tongues before speaking?"
Just now it was half of the face, now it is the whole face, the young man can no longer speak much.
Li Yi looked at Chen Chong and asked in a low voice, "Is your anger gone?"
A trace of pleasure appeared on Chen Chong's face, and he shook his head slightly.
It's just two slaps, how can you calm down, if the Chen family is still the Chen family, Xinwang is not Xinwang, asking him for two hands is already taking advantage of him.
"If you still don't feel relieved..." Li Yi took out the dagger given to him by Miss Liu Er from his sleeve, handed it to Chen Chong, and said, "This is for you, you can do it yourself."
…
Facts once again proved that Chen Chong was a man who did not mean what he said.
Li Yi put away the dagger, looked at him with a look of doubt on his face, looked at him, and asked, "What happened just now?"
The more than ten guards behind King Xin all unsheathed their weapons and fell to the ground almost at the same time. The slovenly old man threw a peanut in his mouth, and the big man ran over with a flattering face and asked: " Senior, are you thirsty, would you like a bowl of tea?"
On the contrary, King Xin regained his composure at this moment, fixed his gaze on him, and asked, "Li Yi, Li County Marquis, Doctor Li, do you really want to do this?"
"Who is this?" Li Yi looked at Chen Chong and asked suspiciously.
Chen Chong immediately introduced him: "This is His Royal Highness King Xin."
Li Yi looked at him and said in surprise: "His Royal Highness Xin Wang..., what do you mean by what you just said?"
"let's go."
King Xin didn't look at him again, turned around and got into the carriage. The guards behind him breathed a sigh of relief, picked up their weapons, and left quickly.
Things happened very quickly, and the crowd on the street dispersed quickly before being surrounded.
Miss Chen San looked at him worriedly, "You, how could you, that's King Xin!"
Li Yi walked over, looked at him, and was concerned: "Does your hand still hurt?"
In this world, apart from his family and friends, there are two people whom he absolutely does not allow anyone to hurt.
One is because of letting go of the continuous blood, and the other is because of an irreparable debt.
Regardless of whether it is the king of Shu or the king of Xin, no matter what the consequences are, these things don't need to be considered.
Miss Chen San looked at him, her face was full of helplessness, but her tone softened, and she said, "Come in first."
At the door of the shop, Chen Chong stepped forward and asked, "Isn't it King Xin?"
Li Yi nodded.
"That's King Qi?"
Li Yi shook his head.
Surprised expression appeared on Chen Chong's face, but he didn't ask any more questions. After a long time, he said: "Whether it is or not, he is the prince after all. You are a little reckless today."
He sighed and said, "Anyway, thank you for today."
"You don't need to thank me." Li Yi looked at him, and said contemptuously, "You don't even dare to stand up when your relatives are bullied, you coward!"
A few black lines appeared on Chen Chong's forehead, to stand up for Miaoyu, did he just take his dagger and stab Wang Xin twice
This kind of thing, even if he, Jingguo's biggest courtier, did it, he would definitely not be kind, right
The members of the Li family are indeed as annoying as ever!
…
On the street, in a slowly moving carriage.
The coachman said with a little resentment: "That courtier, relying on His Majesty's favor, dared to act so boldly. He didn't take His Highness seriously, and he didn't take the royal family seriously. As long as His Majesty impeached him in front of His Majesty..."
"Shut up!"
Inside the carriage, came an extremely depressing voice.
The expression on King Xin's face was ashamed and annoyed, but more frightened.
The anger and shame are naturally due to being humiliated by Li Yi in front of so many people. If it spreads to others, what face will he have as a prince
What is horrifying is—that man is the most trusted subject of the emperor, who goes in and out of the palace all day, and the emperor trusts him more than any minister. If there is something important, how can he not let him know
Although it has not been announced to the public who is the East Palace now, several ministers including him must know in their hearts. If the crown prince is Li Zhe, then how could Li Yi, and how dare he treat himself...
His fists were clenched tightly, his knuckles turned white, and he gritted his teeth and said, "King Qi, King Qi..., is that King Qi!"
