"There are times when old fogies tremble in anger?”
After Yuchi Gong recovered from his shock, he immediately gloated.
He had always been on bad terms with Zhangsun Wuji. Now that he saw the old fellow suffer, he did not know why, but he was extremely happy!
However, he was very curious. How would this person who relied on betting to get to the top resolve this difficulty?
Whether it was insulting an important official of the imperial court or deceiving the emperor, they were all felonies. If they were not careful, they might be beheaded!
They were all founding fathers of the country and had illustrious military merits. It was nothing to beat and scold each other, but this kid was just a commoner youth whose hair had not even grown. He would be severely punished for insulting him like this!
As for the punishment, it was all up to His Majesty!
"See that? This is real guts!”
Cheng Yaojin slapped his two sons hard on the head and scolded them in a low voice.
What does it have to do with me?
Cheng Chumo and Cheng Chu Bi looked up at their father, their faces full of grievances.
However, despite feeling aggrieved, they admired Li Xuan from the bottom of their hearts.
A weak scholar not only dared to call the Emperor drinking horse urine, he even dared to call the prime minister a traitor. If it were them, they would not dare to do so even if they were beaten to death!
However, the two of them secretly broke out in a cold sweat for Li Xuan. At the same time, he cursed the Emperor and the country's uncle. This wasn't a light crime. Even if he didn't die, he would be skinned!
Not only them, but even Princess Chang Le was dumbfounded.
Was this kid crazy? After scolding his father, he scolded the prime minister. Wasn't he too bold?
However, despite her anger, she was already prepared to protect him!
Who asked him to be the future horse rider!
Who asked him to be good-looking and talented!
"Alright, I'll tell you now why you're a traitor…!”
Just as everyone was having their own thoughts, Li Xuan acted as if nothing had happened as he said calmly,""If the wine I took out was better than this horse urine, how could I be guilty of deceiving the sovereign? Since there is no crime of deceiving the emperor, why do you need to ask the emperor to pardon your name? Don't you think you're a traitor? Don't you think you're cunning?"
"Father-in-law, may I ask if what this son-in-law said is reasonable?”
After saying that, he directly handed the ruling power to Li Er.
"Uh, this…?"
Li Er was stunned!
That's right!
There was nothing wrong with this!
But he felt that something was wrong.
"Could it be that Father-in-law feels that what my son-in-law said is unreasonable?”
Li Xuan asked when he saw his confused expression.
Motherf * cker!
You call me father-in-law again!
Was this taking advantage of him endless?
Li Er cursed in his heart. However, there was nothing he could do!
"That's true, but you have to be able to bring out a better wine than the tribute wine!”
Li Er sorted out the thoughts in his mind and finally found a clue.
"Did Lord Zhangsun hear that? Even His Majesty thinks what I said makes sense? Since what I said was true, why would I insult him?”Li Xuan looked at him mockingly and said with a relaxed expression.
"Arrogant brat, don't twist logic. If you can't produce a better wine than the tribute wine today, I will definitely ask the Emperor to punish you for both crimes.”
Zhangsun Wuji's lungs were about to explode from anger, but he could not find any reason to punish this kid.
After all, what this scammer said was right. Since he could bring out wine that was better than the tribute wine, there was no need to report to the Emperor for pardon!
Therefore, although he was scolded, he could do nothing but hope that this kid was bragging and couldn't bring out good wine!
"Then…what if I take out something better than the tribute wine?”
Li Xuan couldn't help but snicker inwardly when he saw him fly into a rage.
The angrier this old man was, the easier it was for him to lose his mind. The more he lost his mind, the easier it was for him to jump into the pit!
"I will…"
Zhangsun Wuji originally wanted to say that he would be pardoned, but when the words reached his mouth, he realized that something was wrong and quickly swallowed them back.
Otherwise, who knew what this kid would scold him for?
Just now, he was careless and was scolded by him as a traitor. This time, he definitely could not repeat the same mistake!
"If you can take out good wine, this official will let you do whatever you want. But if you can't take it out, don't blame this official for handling it impartially!”
Zhangsun Wuji's face darkened as he said angrily.
"How about this, if I take out good wine, you can compensate me with ten thousand strings of spiritual damage. If I can't take it out, you can do whatever you want.”
Li Xuan suppressed his joy when he saw him fall into a trap.
What was the use of dealing with this old man? It was better to take some money!
"Good! It's a deal!"
Zhangsun Wuji agreed without thinking!
As long as he couldn't bring out the good wine, he would make this kid voluntarily give up the qualification to attach himself to the horse. Not only that, but he could also be punished for both crimes!
This was a rare opportunity!
Whether or not he could snatch the Eldest Princess back and betroth her to his son depended on this!
