A Conflict Is About to Rise
"Old thief Cen Wenwen! You and I are irreconcilable!"
The King of Wei, Li Tai, angrily smashed everything that could be smashed on the desk in his study room. The veins on his entire body bulged, and his eyes were wide open. Looking at his posture, if Cen Wen was in front of him, he would probably ruthlessly take a piece of meat!
A perfect opportunity had been ruined by this old thing. As long as he really got the position to replace the Crown Prince, the situation would instantly become clear. Those who had not expressed their stance in the past would officially stand on his side. At the same time, they could also harvest a wave of people's hearts. Li Tai's general trend would be formed!
However, no matter how much he thought about it, he never expected that old man Cen Wen Wen would actually jump out and fight for the benefits of the hopeless King of Wu, Li Ke. He simply could not understand.
After venting his anger, Li Tai finally calmed down. He said to Liu Lei beside him,"Old Liu, do you really think there's no chance for this?”
Liu Lei also felt that it was a pity. He was just one step away. Once he succeeded, he would be a hero made of iron. It was a pity. However, since things had come to this, he could only sigh and say,"His Majesty has already made his decision on this matter. Your Highness, you also know that when has His Majesty ever taken back his orders?”
Li Tai was not stupid. He naturally knew that his father had made the decision, which meant that the coffin had been sealed. However, he was still unwilling to give up. He said angrily,
"It's fine if there are so many stubborn old fogeys protecting the Crown Prince, but even Li Ke, the King of Wu, has someone protecting him. What's the point of protecting the Third Prince who has no chance at all?”
Liu Lei didn't reply. Li Tai could say such things, but he couldn't.
"Although things have come to this, Your Highness, don't worry. There is still room for maneuver. You have to know that His Majesty is still on your side. Just now, after the retreat, His Majesty left me alone and handed over the matter of assigning the regions to me.”
"You mean you have the final say in where the princes go?" Li Tai asked excitedly.”
Liu Lei smiled and nodded." That's right. Your Highness, don't worry. I chose Lantian County for Your Highness. Lantian County has always been rich. I chose Xinfeng County at the foot of Mount Li for King Wu Li Ke. Moreover, Xinfeng is a place where merchants gather. If King Wu wants to cure the disaster, he will have to take money and grain from the merchants. Your Highness, how much do you think he can get?”
Li Tai's face was filled with joy." Haha, this inspection has become a test for all the princes. Only those princes who have resolved the disaster will naturally have the reputation of being virtuous. This time, I want to show all the officials that I, Li Tai, am the most capable and most suitable to be the crown prince!”
Liu Lei tactfully flattered,"Your Highness has already taken the initiative.”
"Haha, I'm in a good mood today!" Li Tai laughed. Let's find a brothel to drink!"
Liu Lei hurriedly followed. At this moment, Li Tai suddenly said,"A few days ago, fifth brother and old man Fang clan had a fight in a brothel, what was that brothel called?”
Liu Lei was stunned at first, but then she reacted."I think it's called Fragrance Restaurant."
Li Tai laughed and said," That's right, it's the Wafting Fragrance Brothel. Today, we'll go to the Wafting Fragrance Brothel. It's said that last time, Old Fifth and Fang Jun fought over a woman in the Wafting Fragrance Brothel. I want to see what kind of woman could make these two fight."”
......
The sky was not dark yet, but the area around the Wafting Fragrance Brothel was already brightly lit. At this moment, a few carriages stopped in front of the Wafting Fragrance Brothel. A group of teenagers opened the curtain of the carriage and jumped out of the carriage. They were all dressed in brocade clothes and jade belts, and their expressions were slightly arrogant.
One of the youths didn't wait for the coachman to open the curtain before he waved his hand and jumped out of the carriage, landing steadily on the ground.
This person's skin was slightly dark, and his muscles perfectly propped up the brocade robe on his body. His figure was naturally imposing, and there was a slight smile on his face. It was Fang Jun.
At this moment, Fang Jun spoke," I've long heard that the second young master of Fang clan beat up Yan Wudi in a fit of anger for a beauty and even made King of Qi Li You suffer a loss. It became a story in Chang 'an City. It's a pity that I wasn't there that day.”
Fang Jun turned around and saw that it was Li Siwen's older brother, Li Ji's eldest son, Li Zhen. He smiled and said,""Look at what you're saying. That day, I, your younger brother, was beaten up quite a bit.”
"There were only three of you that day. It's already good enough that you didn't suffer any losses in the end." Moreover, under that kind of situation, Brother Fang, you still relied on your own strength to turn the situation around. Otherwise, my good-for-nothing brother would have suffered!”
"Brother, don't blame me. I'm just a little reckless…" Fang Jun quickly shook his head.
Li Zhen smiled. He and Li Siwen were both fearless people. They admired people like Fang Jun who were bolder than them.
Today was his birthday, so he invited some of the rich playboys he was familiar with in Chang 'an to the Fragrance Restaurant for a drink. He wanted to see how charming the courtesan was.
