Li Er was currently in a terrible state, and the thing he wanted to do the most was undoubtedly to improve his reputation.
His ultimate goal was to become a Saint Monarch and be praised by countless people in the future.
However, he had a huge problem now.
That was, the change in Black Tortoise Sect would become a stain that he would never be able to wash away in his life! Although no one dared to say these words in front of Li Er, everyone knew what was going on.
Therefore, Li Er had always wanted to settle this matter, but unfortunately, he had never been able to settle it.
But now, he seemed to see hope!
No eating of carp, or death penalty?
This actually sounded ridiculous. Eating carp was equivalent to eating plums? Wasn't this bullsh * t? Could it be that after eating a few fish, his Li family would fall?
Li Er wasn't that stupid! The reason why this ban was set up was just to show the dignity of the royal family.
But now, if the ban on eating carp could be lifted by 'losing a portion of the royal family's dignity' so that the commoners could live…
This was a f * cking good thing!
Perhaps, many commoners would think that he was a wise ruler. In order to let the commoners live, he would even let them eat carp…
In other words, no matter how this matter was spread, it was a great thing for Li Er and the Great Tang!
As for eating beef, it was indeed a little wrong.
However, just as Cheng Yaojin had said, the old bull had almost no ability to work. If he was not allowed to eat, wouldn't he die of old age and be buried?
Relatively speaking, no matter how one looked at it, it was more meaningful to kill him and share it with the commoners.
It was not difficult for Li Er to imagine how much of a commotion it would cause if he were to announce these two 'methods' in the form of an imperial edict. How many people would be grateful to him…
Thinking of this, Li Er's heart burned and he could no longer sit still.
He looked at Cheng Yaojin and laughed."General Cheng, what are you talking about? We have been brothers who have lived and died together for many times. Why would I blame you for this?”
"Moreover, as you said, if eating carp and old cows can save the lives of countless people, then why would I be so pedantic?!”
"Good food! The food is good!"
"Whether it's Li Qiu or you, General Cheng, you should be rewarded!”
"Come on! "Pass on my decree. Crown Prince Li Qiu set an example. In order to share the worries of the people and save the people from fire and water, he did not hesitate to violate the law of the country. He is indeed a fearless and kind person!"”
" Therefore, I hereby reward the Crown Prince with a hundred pieces of silk, a thousand taels of gold, and five hundred warhorses…"
"Ci Cheng is biting gold…"
……
"That's great!"
Looking at Li Er speaking with confidence and assurance, every word he said was about rewards. Moreover, it was to reward Li Qiu, whom he originally hated the most and also wanted to drag down, Li Chengqian was not the least bit unhappy…
In fact, he was extremely happy!
If it was two days ago, this would have been unbelievable. But now, this was what he was really thinking!
After all, only when Li Qiu was continuously rewarded and rewarded would his position as Crown Prince become more and more stable…
Li Qiu's position as Crown Prince was becoming more and more stable. Wouldn't he no longer have to sit on that dangerous and useless Crown Prince position?
Awesome!
"Fortunately, I was quick-witted and helped Li Qiu to say that he was alive. Otherwise, with Imperial Father's angry expression just now, I'm afraid he would have pushed Li Qiu down.”
"At that time, the position of Crown Prince might really fall on my head…"
"That was close, really close…"
Li Chengqian patted his chest, feeling proud in his heart.
Wouldn't it be great if he didn't have to be the Crown Prince?
……
Cheng Yaojin thanked him profusely, his head and back already covered in cold sweat. It was only until now that the dust had finally settled that he relaxed a little.
He had to be worried!
Eating cattle and eating carp, which one was a great crime to be beheaded. If Li Er really went crazy and Qin Shubao's plan did not work, wouldn't he be dead?
"That little bastard…"
Demoness Cheng was furious." He made me take the blame and almost killed me. The next time we meet, I must make him sit on a big pot of carp and eat it to his heart's content!"”
"No, it's two big pots!"
"Eh? Something's not right…"
Suddenly, Cheng Yaojin seemed to have reacted. He glanced at Li Chengqian with an expression as if he had seen a ghost.
"These nine Princes have different forces behind them. For the position of Crown Prince, they will do anything!”
"Why is the Second Prince speaking up for the Crown Prince today? This…"
"Is your brain damaged?"
Cheng Yaojin blinked his eyes and couldn't wrap his head around it for a long time.
Aren't you supposed to be mortal enemies?
Shouldn't he seize every opportunity to kick the other party when he was down? He wouldn't let the matter rest until he killed the other party, right?
Why was she speaking up for him now?
Am I dreaming?
Or is your brain damaged?
At this moment, Cheng Yaojin was dumbfounded. He even began to doubt his life…
……
"Hahaha!"
After drafting the imperial edict, Li Er laughed and left. Apparently, he was in a good mood after solving the problem of famine.
However, while his mood was good, Li Qiu's mood was very bad.
"What the f * ck? He was rewarded again?"
"You still say that I did a good job?"
Looking at Cheng Yaojin, who had come to read the imperial edict, Li Qiu's face was filled with helplessness, confusion, and astonishment. She almost spat out a mouthful of blood a few dozen feet away…
Σ(⊙▽⊙a!!!
"Are you sure you didn't make a mistake? Passing on a false imperial edict is a crime of beheading!"
"Do you think I'm stupid? Fake imperial edict?"
Cheng Yaojin rolled his eyes." This is an imperial edict personally written by His Majesty. Don't you recognize His Majesty's notes?"”
"Quick, quick, quick. Stew your beef in a big pot for me. It's not illegal to eat beef now. I can eat as much as I want!”
"You eat a hammer, you eat!"
"What's going on?" Li Qiu cursed."Tell me clearly."”
"Why are you scolding people?"
Cheng Yaojin glared at him." Do you know that I spent a lot of effort to get you off?!" Otherwise, you won't be able to sit still as the Crown Prince!”
"Of course, I'm not proud of myself.”
"If it was just me, even if His Majesty did not punish you, he might not have rewarded you. However…Second Prince Li Chengqian also put in a lot of good words for you.”
"Although I don't know what's wrong with your second brother, he really helped you in this matter!”
Cheng Yaojin smiled brightly, as if he was waiting for Li Qiu's praise…
