Li Baiyi nodded and said: "Since His Majesty has spoken so eloquently, of course I will not dare to disobey."
"Then as your Majesty said, one more thing is that the losing side will be exiled to the Eastern Japan Kingdom."
Upon hearing this, those civil servants couldn't help but feel nervous, imagining that if their side lost, and they were really exiled to the Eastern Japan, it would be easier to die than die.
But then they all cheered themselves up secretly.
It's impossible for him to lose. How could this kid win against the Beiyuan Mission?
Upon hearing this, Emperor Xuanfeng of Huai'an immediately pointed at Li Baiyi and became a little angry.
He originally thought that what he said would make the boy retreat, but he didn't expect that the boy would hit the snake with a stick.
"Okay, okay, when that day comes, I want to see how you and your son end up."
With that said, Wang Xuanfeng flicked his sleeves and walked out of the hall.
He went straight to Concubine Xi's palace. Concubine Xi hurriedly came up to her and said, "Your Majesty, why do you look so angry? Who made you angry?"
Concubine Xi quickly pulled the emperor to sit down and fed him fruit. After a few mouthfuls of cold fruit, Wang Xuanfeng calmed down a little.
"Who else, other than those civil servants, would use important matters of the imperial court as a weapon to attack others? It is really unreasonable."
"And this kid Li Baiyi actually went against these civil servants. Although I don't like the way these civil servants stick together, but you have to pay attention to methods when you go against them, right?"
...
Above the court, a group of civil servants who watched the emperor leave gradually showed a look of pride on their faces, especially Tang En, whose smile was so exaggerated that it was almost distorted.
Although His Majesty did not ask Li Baiyi to be punished this time, it was similar to that. It was just a matter of sooner or later.
After the Beiyuan mission fought with Da Kunwen, everything was settled.
"Oh, congratulations to Duke Zhenguo and his son, for taking on such a good mission this time, we are all jealous."
Tang En came to Li Baiyi and the two of them, with a victor's smile on his face, he raised his hands and said.
Li Xiao couldn't help but rolled his eyes and looked at his son beside him. He was about to explode with anger, but of course he couldn't show it in front of these people, otherwise these people would be even more arrogant.
"Mr. Zhen Guo, it's a pity that you and your son took away such a good opportunity."
"If this job falls into the hands of the lower official, the lower official might be able to perform extraordinarily well so that it won't be so embarrassing."
"The young master accepted this assignment with such confidence. I guess it's not because he's hot-headed, but because he's confident."
"Then I really want to congratulate you, young master, for your victory. You will be able to show your face in front of the world."
Li Xiao gritted his teeth, pointed at a few people and said coldly: "You are really so generous. Don't forget the bet my son made with you just now."
A civil servant smiled contemptuously and said, "Do you really think your son will win? So what if there is a bet, so what if we agreed."
"As long as your son doesn't win, the outcome is already determined. Is there any difference?"
Li Xiao snorted coldly. Although he knew what the other party said was very reasonable, he gritted his teeth and said, "Huh, if my son wins, you losers will have to call my son godfather."
"Although I, Li Xiao, may not admit you unworthy descendants when the time comes, I have to let you remember my words."
"If I, Li Xiao, want to teach you unscrupulous descendants a lesson, no one else can do it. After all, you are all my good grandsons."
As he said that, Li Xiao rolled up his sleeves, as if he was going to hit someone.
"As long as my son wins, I will see you once and beat you once."
Li Xiao was originally the Duke of Zhenguo, with outstanding achievements and a very oppressive aura. With such a threat, all the civil servants present could not bear it any longer, and they waved their sleeves and left.
"It's really insulting to gentlemen."
"He is indeed a martial artist, and his behavior is vulgar."
After a group of civil servants left angrily, only Li Baiyi and his son were left in the hall. The two looked at each other, and then Li Xiao took out his belt and wanted to whip him.
Li Baiyi quickly begged for mercy: "Dad, what are you doing? What did the child do wrong to make dad so angry?"
Li Xiao pointed at him and cursed: "You heard what those civil servants said just now. Do you think you have a chance of winning? If I don't hit you, who will I hit?"
Li Xiao approached Li Baiyi and gritted his teeth.
"These civil servants usually look down on us military men. They keep away from things, but you still want to do it. Do you think you are more talented than them?"
"If you really lose this time, our Li family will be doomed!"
"All the glory in the past will be ruined. From now on, we will always be the laughing stock of Dakun. These civil servants will definitely turn my Li family into a pile of garbage."
Li Baiyi quickly waved his hand and said: "Father, I can compose poetry. If you don't believe me, I will compose it for you now."
Li Xiao suddenly laughed out of anger, nodded and pointed at himself.
"Well, being a father won't be difficult for you. Just use being a father as the title and compose a poem, or two sentences."
With that said, Li Xiao raised his hand and was ready to hit someone at any time.
Li Baiyi moved to the side and said in a coherent voice: "Ah, ah, what a powerful person, a middle-aged rough guy."
Hearing this, Li Xiao's eyes widened, as if he was doubtful about life, and then he threw out the belt in his hand.
"You kid, you're going to be forced to stand under the scorching sun when you go home. If you dare to run away, I'll break your legs!"
...
In Concubine Xi's bedroom, the emperor and Concubine Xi were still talking about what happened in the court.
Concubine Xi raised her eyebrows and said, "Your Majesty, I heard that the Beiyuan delegation is coming to Beijing soon. Are we prepared?"
When Wang Xuanfeng heard this, he immediately became a little angry: "What's more, that's why I'm so angry. If it hadn't been for the Beiyuan Mission, there wouldn't have been so many troubles today."
Concubine Xi listened with wide eyes, and Wang Xuanfeng continued.
"Those civil servants originally wanted to accuse Li Baiyi of murder, but in the end they let him clear himself of the crime. They just wanted to play tricks on this kid."
"They actually want to let this good-for-nothing loser go to fight with the Beiyuan Mission. It's really unreasonable."
"I was a little angry at the time, but I actually agreed. Now that I think about it, I really regret it."
When Concubine Xi heard this, the figure of that boy appeared in her mind, with some doubts in her eyes.
"Your Majesty, are you saying that that boy easily resolved the false accusations made by those civil servants?"
Wang Xuanfeng nodded and said: "Yes, what this boy said at that time was reasonable and well-founded, and those civil servants could not refute it."
"I have to say that Tang En, this old thief, is so ruthless that he is even willing to kill his own son."
