Li Chengqian pursed his lips and looked up at him in disbelief.
Since you're not here to apologize.
Then what are you doing here?
Running over to slap bengong's face?
Hearing this.
Everyone was also stunned.
Li Lizhi held back her smile and looked at Lee Zhen. This person was amazing!
Was he thinking differently from everyone else? This time, it was obvious that he wanted him to apologize to someone else. He did not expect him to accept someone else's apology?!
"Li Zhen, don't go overboard!"
"I haven't settled the score with you for what happened last time!”
"You're simply going too far!"
Cheng Chumo, Fang Yizhi, Du Gou, Yuchi Baolin, Xiao Rui, Zhangsun Chong, Hou Yinshi, Li Dejian, and Qin Huaiyu, the nine sons of the High Duke, slammed the table and stood up. They glared at him and shouted angrily,
"Is there anyone like you?"
"His Highness the Crown Prince persuaded you, but you didn't appreciate it. Instead, you attacked His Highness the Crown Prince. What are your intentions?!”
"Don't you know why you came here? You want us to apologize to you? Dream on!"
"What are you shouting for?"
Li Zhen frowned and stood up. He stared at them and said,
"I'm talking to His Highness the Crown Prince, why are you interrupting?”
As he spoke, Li Zhen turned around and glanced at Li Chengqian, who had an ugly expression. He cupped his hands and said,
"Your Highness, did you not make it clear to them? Since that's the case, we can't work together on different paths. I'll take my leave. Green mountains and green waters will not change. See you later.”
"Stop right there!"
Li Chengqian's nose was crooked from anger. See you again? If you step out of this Drunken Immortal Restaurant today, BenGong's face will be completely lost.
It was his first time being a lobbyist.
In the end, he screwed up.
Countless people were paying attention to this matter, especially those royal brothers. They were all watching from the sidelines, waiting to see him make a fool of himself.
If it really became a joke.
How was he going to raise his head in front of them, in front of all the civil and military officials?!
No!
He absolutely could not let him leave!
Li Chengqian's face was ashen. He clenched his fists so tightly that cracking sounds could be heard. His eyes glared angrily at Li Zhen.
Since you won't let bengong be a lobbyist, bengong will let you know the consequences of offending bengong!
"Let's not talk about this for the time being."
"Bengong said that today, I invited everyone to this banquet to bond with each other and also to liven up the atmosphere with poetry. Don't make everyone unhappy because of a small matter.”
"Sit down, sit down."
"Give BenGong some face."
Li Chengqian took a deep breath and swept his gaze across everyone. He forcefully suppressed his anger and revealed a forced smile on his face as he spoke word by word.
The nine sons of the High Dukes sat down once again with gloomy expressions. Their gazes towards Li Zhen had all become extremely furious. It was as if Li Chengqian had not spoken up, they would have long gone berserk.
Li Zhen chuckled.
Now that everyone had shed all pretense of cordiality, why would they continue to sit down and talk? What else did he say? Didn't she just say how to embarrass him?
He wouldn't release the eagle until he saw the rabbit.
Since he wanted to die.
Then I'll fulfill your wish.
Li Zhen secretly sighed and sat behind a few tables with a calm expression. He calmly picked up his wine glass and took a sip.
Seeing that everyone had taken their seats again, Li Chengqian's expression eased a lot. His fingers gently tapped the table and said,
"The food is almost done, and the wine is enough. Now, let's get to the main topic and sing. What do you think?”
Everyone nodded.
Li Chengqian continued,"Now, the Great Tang and the people are cultivating and recuperating. The world is thriving."”
"Today, let's drink to liven things up and recite poems.”
"Who wants to go first?"
After saying that, Li Chengqian did not wait for everyone to respond. His gaze faintly looked at Li Zhen and said in a casual tone,
"Li Zhen, go first."
He was here!
Everyone's heart tightened as they stared at Li Zhen.
Li Lizhi and Liu Quhe looked at each other and saw the same thoughts in each other's eyes.
How could the Crown Prince be casual?
He was clearly deliberately making things difficult for Li Zhen!
Li Zhen nodded. He did not feel nervous at all and said softly,"Then let's begin."
"How refreshing!"
Li Chengqian laughed heartily and gave him a thumbs up. He sneered in his heart. Let's see how you get off the stage today.
"BenGong likes the snow scenery."
"Do you have one?"
"You don't have to tell me," Li Zhen muttered,"I happen to have a poem about the snow scenery that I just wrote here."”
As he spoke, Li Zhen stood up and looked out the window with his hands behind his back. His gaze was deep and distant as he said softly,
"This poem is called 'River Snow.'"
"Birds fly away from a thousand mountains,"
"Ten Thousand Paths Man Extinguisher."
"Old Man in a Coir Hat in a Lonely Boat,"
"Fishing alone in Ice Lake Snow."
Bang!
Suddenly, the sound of a wine glass falling rang out on the ground.
The person who dropped the wine glass.
It was the owner of the Drunken Immortal Restaurant, the young and beautiful Liu Quhe!
