"But Your Majesty, we have a request. If Li Baiyi can agree, this competition can continue."
"Otherwise, we're afraid we won't be able to agree."
Tang En and others immediately echoed: "Yes, Your Majesty, we are afraid that we cannot agree. This competition is fraudulent, and County Magistrate Li did it on purpose."
Li Baiyi couldn't help but raise his eyebrows. He didn't expect that these people would beat him up, but this was not a bad thing for him. He just wanted to hear what these guys wanted to do.
Anyway, it is certain that he will win in this matter. As long as the content of the competition remains unchanged, he can accept everything else.
Immediately, Li Baiyi nodded towards Emperor Huai'an, and then Emperor Huai'an said to Huo Bai.
"Huo Aiqing, if you have any requests, you can ask Li Baiyi and he will satisfy you."
Li Baiyi nodded and said indifferently: "That's right, tell me, I'm ready to be made difficult by you."
Huo Bai took a breath, and his face turned slightly red. He pointed at Li Baiyi and said: "County Magistrate Li, you are so calculating. Do you feel that you have won the hearts of the people by dedicating yourself to the magistrate this time? The people in the capital also said If you say good things, they will obey your wishes and work hard without complaint."
Li Baiyi was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help but feel a little surprised: Good guy, these guys really know how to make connections. Even if he really thinks so, what use can the support of the people in a small county do?
This is the capital. How many people in those small counties can come here so quickly, how can they support him.
Thinking of this, Li Baiyi couldn't help but roll his eyes and lowered his judgment on the IQ of this group of guys.
"Well, my lord, if you have anything to say, please feel free to say it. Don't say useless things. Your Majesty must not be interested in your speculations."
Huo Bai nodded and said: "Well, Your Majesty, I kindly ask Your Majesty to hand over the position of organizer of this competition to me. I think I will definitely be qualified for this small task."
"If I hand it over to County Magistrate Li, I'm afraid his sharp tongue will show off and affect the outcome of the competition."
When Emperor Huai'an heard this, he couldn't help but frowned. Of course he didn't want to agree to these guys. What he wanted was for Li Baiyi to win.
But if he were to reject Huo Bai himself, it would seem that his emperor's partiality was too obvious.
Thinking of this, Emperor Huai'an couldn't help but look at Li Baiyi and had an idea in his mind.
"Li Baiyi, what do you think?"
When Huo Bai and others heard this, their hearts tightened. His Majesty clearly wanted to favor Li Baiyi.
He asked, could Li Baiyi say that he couldn't accept it?
Li Baiyi waved his hands indifferently and said: "Your Majesty, I have no objection to this matter. I will just handle it according to your wishes."
Li Baiyi's words immediately surprised Huo Bai and others. This guy actually wanted to hand over the position of host to them. Wouldn't that be a piece of cake on the chopping board?
Huo Bai really thought that Li Baiyi had some magical means or back-up plan. He had been guarding against Li Baiyi, but he didn't expect that Li Baiyi didn't even think about resisting and actually let them take care of it.
Did this Li Baiyi really give up, or was he so sure of victory that he didn't care?
However, Huo Bai was so conceited that no one could help him except Prime Minister Guo, and he couldn't understand what Li Baiyi was thinking.
As for Tang En and others, it was like celebrating the New Year at this time, and they were almost going crazy with excitement.
"Your Majesty, since Li Baiyi has said so, then Wei Chen dares to affirm that Your Majesty will entrust Wei Chen with the task of being the presiding officer."
Tang En stood up excitedly and said impatiently.
"Your Majesty, I promise that I can successfully complete this task."
While speaking, Tang En looked at Li Baiyi with a proud face, as if he was a winner.
Since this kid gave up this position to others, he will definitely lose this time.
Of course he had nothing to blame, and he was even a little worried about what would happen if Li Baiyi regretted it.
They couldn't force Li Baiyi to agree.
Although he felt that his position in the court could not reach the top, it was definitely more than enough compared to Li Baiyi.
As long as he raises his arms, isn't there anyone who won't act in accordance with his orders?
Huo Bai couldn't help but look at Li Baiyi and said, "County Magistrate Li, our organizer has been selected. I wonder if you have any other opinions."
"If there are no other opinions, we will start competing next."
Li Baiyi glanced at Tang En, shook his head and said, "I don't have any objections. Since you have chosen someone, just follow your choice."
After Tang En heard this, he immediately planned to start hosting. Huo Bai suddenly thought of something: "By the way, since we have agreed not to use external force, then all of us participating in the competition cannot leave the place where the carriage is parked."
Li Baiyi nodded: "Of course, haven't you said this before? Why, are you feeling guilty?"
"If you are afraid, then I can give you a step. Let's do this. You choose five people among your people and give orders respectively."
"I'll give you another half hour. If any of you can succeed in your orders within this half hour, then I'll count you as the winner. How about that?"
When Tang En heard this, his eyes widened immediately, feeling as if this kid was joking with him.
"Boy, let alone five people, even if I am alone, I can end the competition. You really think that we officials are in vain."
Li Baiyi nodded and said with a smile: "That's right, I really don't take you people seriously. I'm not targeting anyone. I'm saying that the Beijing officials present are all rubbish."
As soon as they heard this, the officials present at the court couldn't sit still.
Li Baiyi scolded them all. This was an indiscriminate attack and carpet bombing.
If they could still endure this kind of thing, it would be too frustrating.
Immediately, a bunch of officials stood up and accused Li Baiyi.
"Li Baiyi despises the imperial officials. Mr. Tang, hurry up and give the orders to give him a little shock."
"This kid Li Baiyi is really as annoying as his father. After all, his father is a prince of the country and has a large army."
"Why should we be afraid of this kid? If he dares to say such things, we should get rid of him as soon as possible."
"What's the matter? As long as Li Baiyi loses this time, we can ask your Majesty to kill him with a stick at any time."
Li Baiyi turned a deaf ear to these people's words and looked at Emperor Huai'an with calm eyes.
