Prince Qi's House Dog Lu Si couldn't help but wiped his face. Well, His Highness was just exaggerating. What can he say?
Li You's face was livid, and his eyes were about to burst into flames, but at this moment.
Next to him, Zan Junmo, who had extremely long hands and looked like a hunched-over monkey, approached Li You and said something sinister.
"Your Highness, Cheng Sanlang is now very favored by the emperor. If Your Highness conflicts with him at this moment, it will not be a good thing for Your Highness."
"It would be better to ask Your Highness to find someone to reconcile with and see if this matter can be settled privately."
"First of all, I will not hurt His Highness's face, and secondly, I will avoid a direct conflict with Cheng Sanlang."
After hearing this, Li You suddenly became unhappy and couldn't help but glare at his confidant.
"In this case, wouldn't this king lose all his face?"
Another Liang Mengbiao, who had a scar on his face and looked definitely not a kind-hearted person, also spoke to persuade.
"Your Highness, a gentleman takes revenge. It is never too late in ten years. I will find a way to cause trouble for him, Cheng Sanlang."
"If His Highness feels unhappy, the villain and Brother Zan will definitely give His Highness such bad breath if he turns around."
Seeing that the two confidants he valued most expressed their opinions, Li You touched his bare chin and finally nodded reluctantly.
"That's all, let's let Cheng Sanlang be proud for a few days..."
While he was talking, he suddenly heard someone's voice coming from outside the courtyard gate. When Li You looked up, he saw his uncle's brother-in-law, Yan Hongxin, walking towards him.
Behind him were several fat and strong men with ferocious faces.
"I have met Your Highness. They are the brothers I found from Jinyang. Each of them has the courage to be unstoppable and is a top-notch good man..."
"Oh?" Li You couldn't help but raise his eyebrows and looked at these brave men, with a look of pride on his face.
"Okay, okay, thank you for your help. Not bad, not bad. Now that I'm here, the team of followers in this palace is getting stronger and stronger."
"This is natural. Your Highness, my brother-in-law has said that you must not have the intention of harming others, and you must have the intention of guarding against others."
Yan Hongxin also had a more showy look on his face and said in a low voice.
"If your Highness has a strong army and strong horses, it will be very convenient for you no matter what you do in the future..."
Hearing this, Li You smiled heartily in agreement, but when his eyes fell on Lu Si, he couldn't help but feel a little ache in his balls.
"Hahaha, you have worked hard, come here, prepare a banquet as soon as possible, and give it to all the brave men.
Well... Lu Si, come here, I will write a letter to you, and you will rush to Prince Wu's residence in a moment and give it to my third brother, Prince Wu."

After Cheng Chubi threw the guards directly into the prison, he looked at the trembling prisoners around him.
He shook his head helplessly. It seemed that the level of these guys was too low, not like the prison in Dali Temple.
The criminals who have been imprisoned range up to powerful people like General Xue, and even myself and His Majesty's own sons have been imprisoned, but they can still show their composure.
It seems that I should deal with Dali Temple and let the county prison guards go there to learn and experience it.
After finishing the work, Cheng Chubi called the foreman who was responsible for repairing the road today and asked him if he had calculated the loss of today's road paving.
The foreman also knew that the person riding on the newly paved concrete road today was His Highness King Qi, and his heart was so trembling that he flew up.
Hearing Cheng Sanlang's inquiry, he quickly shook his head. "There is no loss. We just need the workers to resurface the road surface and that's it."
Cheng Chubi was immediately unhappy. I had worked so hard to give up my time for playing cards and entertainment, and jumped over to arrest criminals. You're going to give me this answer?
"No, no, no, how can such a big thing be done as soon as it's settled?"
"They have stepped on the road, which will definitely cause us to lose a lot of cement. Moreover, the craftsmen still need to re-level it. How much labor was wasted?"
"Furthermore, after their mounts were stained with cement, they were trampled around. This will definitely require cleaning costs. How can these not be losses?"
"Calculate it carefully for me. Even if you only lose one copper plate, you have to compensate them according to the price."

After reading the autographed letter from Qi King Li You in his hand, Li Ke couldn't help but feel a bit of toothache.
He raised his head and saw Lu Si still standing in front of him eagerly, and nodded helplessly.
"Let's do this. You go back and tell King Qi that I can only do my best, Third Brother. It's hard to say whether it will succeed or not..."
"Thank you, Your Highness. With these words from Your Highness, I can report back to my Highness."
Lu Si breathed a sigh of relief and quickly saluted Li Ke to thank him. Whether it succeeded or not was none of his business, but at least he had completed the task.
When Lu Si left the room, Li Ke rolled his eyes angrily and slumped limply behind the desk.
"It's not good for Lao Wu to mess with whoever he wants. He has to mess with Brother Chu. This is what caused the trouble..."
"Your Highness, then you still agree to help King Qi?" Li De couldn't help but muttered in a low voice.
"That boy Li You has a cruel temper and a small mind. If I don't even pay attention to him, I might even hate him later."
"Oh, forget it, I'll edit a book and you can bring it to Brother Chu Bi for me. I just drank too much two days ago and I really don't want to go to Lu Guogong's mansion and suffer again."
Seeing His Highness's lifeless look, Li De almost burst into laughter. He coughed twice quickly and lowered his head in response.
"Today, my father has already found the two capable ministers that Brother Chu Bi has chosen. Tomorrow, I should also go and have a look to see what abilities they have that can make Brother Chu Bi take notice of them."

Cheng Chubi came home late again, and when he came to his mansion, looking at the lanterns that had already been lit, he felt a little disturbed.
Thinking about myself in the past, I would go out late and come back early, and I still had time to play a few games with a group of poker friends from time to time.
Now, as tired as a dog all day long, listen to the loud voices of my father and several brothers drinking and singing in the front hall.
Then after seeing that he had a sense of superiority, he asked the most industrious handsome boy of the Cheng family to hurry up and have a meal, so as not to get sick from hunger because of the national affairs.
This made Cheng Chubi quite unhappy. This was totally not the Cheng family's way of doing things.
But, after all, I am a man of good faith. I promised my father-in-law that I will do the work in Luoyang City well and solidly. What can I do?
As for the letter from Li De sent by Li Ke, Cheng Chubi only glanced at it twice and threw it aside in disgust.
"Husband, what's wrong? Has my third brother made you angry again?"
Li Mingda sat obediently on the edge of the couch, beating her husband's legs with her little pink fist.
"That's not true. It's just a small matter. Your third brother interceded for your fifth brother and told me not to mess with your fifth brother. He said he was smaller-minded than me."
