Li Baiyi was pulled by Eunuch Cao to Huachi Palace very quickly. Seeing the vague smile on Concubine Xi's face from a distance, she couldn't help but shudder.
This smile was all too familiar to her, and she was about to go crazy.
In addition to Concubine Xi, he also saw that the Crown Prince and Princess Ronghua were also here, and he couldn't help but be startled.
"Hey, my wife is here too. Ah Lang, why are you here too? Did you hear that the imperial concubine is looking for me, and she wants to intercede for me because she is afraid that she will punish me?"
When Princess Ronghua heard this, she immediately pointed at Li Baiyi and said, "That's nonsense, who is your wife?"
Li Baiyi's face suddenly showed a playful look: "Whoever talks to me is my wife."
Ronghua suddenly became furious: "You!"
Concubine Xi raised her eyes and looked at Li Baiyi, who was so frightened that Li Baiyi quickly knelt down and said, "I pay my respects to the concubine."
Hearing this, Concubine Xi snorted softly and said, "So you still have eyes for me as a concubine."
"I haven't asked you to raise an army to punish me yet. It's a good thing that you still dare to act arrogantly in front of me. Do you think you can avoid being beaten if you are about to face the Beiyuan envoy?"
Eunuch Cao on the side smiled and said: "Madam, I recently heard from the children that a method of beating people has been developed in the prison. It will not hurt people, and it will not even affect people's activities, but when they are beaten, they are really hurt." It hurts."
"If the young master likes it, I can give this method to the young master."
When Li Baiyi heard this, he couldn't help but screamed and said: "Empress, I was wrong. I just said it casually, and there was absolutely no disrespect to the empress."
Concubine Xi snorted softly and said: "You said it casually? Then the heroic deeds that have been so popular in the capital these days are also done casually?"
"Why did I hear that your young father-in-law was very charming and charming in the brothel? Is this happening?"
Li Baiyi was stunned for a moment, and suddenly realized that the imperial concubine was talking about what happened to him in the brothel two days ago, and he couldn't help but sweat profusely.
"The imperial concubine misunderstood. I was indeed in the brothel at that time, but I was tricked and tricked into going there."
The prince, Princess Ronghua and others couldn't help but widen their eyes. Unexpectedly, the imperial concubine just asked casually and he admitted it.
The imperial concubine was also very angry. She pointed at Li Baiyi and said, "Okay, you really went to the brothel. Drag him out and beat him hard for me. Twenty, big."
Li Baiyi was immediately frightened out of his wits. The prince on the side quickly begged for mercy: "Mother and concubine, we need to consider this matter carefully. Didn't he say that he was tricked? It was not his original intention to go to the brothel. You Say so?"
Having said this, he quickly rolled his eyes and said: "Mother, Li Baiyi still has to welcome the Beiyuan delegation. If he is beaten, he will be ugly when he greets the delegation. Wouldn't it be an embarrassment to me?" Face?"
Princess Ronghua on the side snorted coldly and said: "Let him go to greet the Beiyuan delegation. I think he will really lose Dakun's face. Concubine, Ronghua please punish him severely."
When Li Baiyi heard this, he immediately said angrily: "Ronghua, I am your husband after all, how could you harm me like this?"
Concubine Xi's anger had subsided a lot at this time, and she ignored his words and said curiously.
"What do you think, you dare to take on the responsibility of Wen Dou? Do you know that even the Prime Minister of my court said he was ill and bedridden because of this?"
"Do you think it's fun, or do you want to be in the limelight? Do you know that if you are in the limelight, your entire Li family will be destroyed, and your father will also be implicated."
When Li Baiyi heard this, he immediately became enlightened and stood up directly and said: "Your Majesty, you don't know this."
"In fact, I used to be a fool. This time when Da Kun was challenged, those civil servants were too ignorant to accept the challenge."
"I am determined to serve my country, so I naturally do my duty at this time."
When the prince heard this, he rolled his eyes, walked to Li Baiyi and said, "You are the only one hiding your clumsiness? Why didn't I see that you have this ability?"
Li Baiyi crossed his arm and said confidently: "That's just because you didn't pay attention. If everyone can see my ability, is it still called my ability?"
"I'm going to scream right now. If I don't scream, I'll be a blockbuster!"
Princess Ronghua almost vomited in disgust after hearing this.
She quickly raised her hands to Concubine Xi and said, "Concubine, Ronghua won't question whether he is bragging."
"Since he dares to take on the fight this time, he has a little bit of courage."
"But for the sake of Dakun's reputation, Ronghua will give him a test. Only if he passes Ronghua will he be qualified to welcome the Beiyuan Mission and participate in the literary fight with the Beiyuan Mission."
"Otherwise, Ronghua will cancel the marriage to him, and Ronghua will take his place in the fight with the Beiyuan envoy. As for my father, I hope my mother and concubine will help Ronghua."
Hearing this, Concubine Xi couldn't help but reveal an imperceptible smile. She had originally wanted to test Li Baiyi, and since Ronghua wanted to take action, it was the best.
Young people need more contact to enhance their relationship.
Even if you fight every day, you can still develop feelings after fighting for a long time.
Concubine Xi thought for a while, nodded and said: "This is not bad, Li Baiyi, do you dare to take on Ronghua's problem?"
However, Li Baiyi agreed without any hesitation: "The imperial concubine asked me to agree, so I will accept it, but I have a condition. If Her Highness the Princess agrees, I will naturally be happy to accompany you."
Ronghua snorted coldly and said, "Even if you agree on any conditions, you won't be able to pass my test anyway. If you say it, it will be in vain."
Concubine Xi smiled slightly and said, "Ronghua, don't be careless. What if he really passes?"
Ronghua glanced at Li Baiyi and said with disdain: "Just him? Dogs are better than him. If you have any conditions, tell me immediately."
Li Baiyi pretended not to hear that and said with a smile: "My condition is that if I pass the test, the princess will kiss me, anywhere."
"Of course, if I lose, I will let the princess do whatever she wants."
When Princess Ronghua heard this, her pretty face turned red with anger. She pointed at him and said, "Okay, okay, I'll let you talk nonsense."
"If you lose, you will stand at the downtown entrance of the capital, and I will find the ugliest woman in the capital to whip you ten times in public with a whip. After each lash, you will say that you voluntarily terminate the engagement with me."
"Father, you have to explain it to me, otherwise it will be treated as if you have not fulfilled your bet."
When the prince heard this, he couldn't bear to say: "Ronghua, this is too big a gamble, or else let it go."
Although it is not very harmful, it is very insulting!
However, Li Baiyi looked at Concubine Xi without any panic: "Concubine Xi, please bear witness that I have accepted this bet."
Concubine Xi smiled: "Okay, I will bear witness to you. No matter which of you wins, I will be able to watch a good show. It will be wonderful!"
