"..." After hearing what Chai Lingwu said, Emperor Li II was silent for a long time.

"Your Majesty!" Zhang Sun Wuji took this opportunity to recount the whole story: "I am a duke after all, but Chai Lingwu, a junior, was disrespectful to me several times. I was angry and said the wrong thing... Please punish me, Your Majesty!"

"..." His Majesty Li II really wanted to give Changsun Wuji a few blows now - his relationship with his son had already reached freezing point, but even so, at the critical moment of the battle in Anshi City, he still rushed here regardless of everything and immediately threw himself into the battlefield until the battle was over and the victory was secured.

Originally... His Majesty Li II was planning to have a good heart-to-heart talk with his son.

As a result, you, Changsun Wuji, came up with another bad idea, saying that while the King of Chu was away, you should bring the Chai brothers and Li Huairen to inquire about the situation - but who knew that because of this, that brat almost got angry again.

Emperor Li II actually regretted it very much - he could now see that his son had an almost crazy obsession with expanding the territory of the Tang Dynasty.

Emperor Li II now feels that Li Kuan is more and more like himself. He even plans to take time out in the future to personally bring the Queen, Sizi and Zhinu to Qiongzhou to visit that boy and his future granddaughter.

The results of it……

Now it's ok...

There's nothing wrong with you, Changsun Wuji, scolding Chai Lingwu. You are scolding him for being uncultured!

Can Kuaner tolerate this?!

If he could endure it, I would be even more unable to sleep!

But the problem is...

Kuan Er couldn't help it, and it was hard for me to handle it...

After learning the whole story, His Majesty Li II felt overwhelmed: "Lingwu, you should apologize to Duke Zhao first."

"Duke Zhao," Chai Lingwu, who was still kneeling on the ground, immediately prepared to turn around: "I——"

"Cousin, don't kneel to him!" As His Royal Highness the King of Chu shouted loudly, Chai Lingwu stopped instantly, but then... for the sake of his cousin, he decided to bow his head.

"Zhen Xuan!" Seeing this, His Royal Highness the King of Chu could only continue to call for support - the two brothers Chai Zhewei and Li Huairen were now more "loyal than gold" than the other: they directly hugged his thighs and waist and refused to let go.

Faced with this situation, His Royal Highness the King of Chu had no choice.

After receiving the order from His Royal Highness the King of Chu, Zhang Zhenxuan rushed in front of Chai Lingwu without saying a word and lifted him up from the ground.

“Master Chai…” Yuan Tiangang calmly glanced at Qu Changsun who rushed out from behind the screen wall with a team of black armor soldiers. He began to deal with the aftermath for His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu: “Don’t rush to apologize. The Duke of Zhao has not yet explained the offense he had against Princess Pingyang Zhao and the Duke of Qiao.”

"What do you want to say?" Seeing that Yuan Tiangang pointed out the key point right away, His Majesty Li II looked at him with an extremely oppressive look and said, "I want Wuji to apologize to Lingwu?"

"Your Majesty... that's not what I meant..." Yuan Tiangang seemed to have a sudden inspiration at this moment. After explaining this sentence awkwardly, he suddenly added: "I just think... Duke Zhao is a dignified Duke, there is no need to bother with the younger generation..."

"It's not Wuji's business to care about it now." Seeing that Yuan Tiangang was so sensible, His Majesty Li Er immediately took advantage of the situation and directed the question to Li Kuan: "Kuan'er, you just shouted at Wuji to kill him, do you know you are wrong?"

"I was totally wrong!" Upon hearing this, His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu made up his mind and said coldly, "If it weren't for my mother and my cousin, I would have killed him long ago! Ha... I don't understand. He was so scared at Mount Li, how can he have the courage to go against me again and again!"

After His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu finished speaking, he also shifted his gaze from Zhangsun Wuji to His Majesty Li II.

The father and son began to look at each other in silence.

Suddenly, the situation became increasingly tense.

"Your Highness the Prince of Chu..." At this moment, Cheng Yaojin, who had been silent all along, suddenly laughed and said, "If I were to say it, it would be you who values ​​friendship and loyalty, dares to love and hate, and can curse the Duke of Zhao, your own uncle, for a small matter involving Princess Pingyang Zhao.

But in fact, if you have to argue about right and wrong in this kind of thing, you will always suffer the loss.

That is why Your Majesty wants to keep things peaceful.

Your Highness, the King of Chu, I know that you are not someone who cannot distinguish right from wrong. So your anger towards the Duke of Zhao was not just because he said something wrong at the time - but we must always discuss the matter objectively.

From your point of view, Chai Lingwu spoke up for you because he values ​​friendship.

But from the perspective of Duke Zhao, he was a junior, but he actually ridiculed Duke Zhao. If Duke Zhao endured it, would he still be able to gain a foothold in the court in the future?

Therefore, Duke Zhao had no choice but to reprimand Chai Lingwu.

It's just that he said the wrong thing because he was so angry. He really shouldn't have said that.

After all, whether it was Princess Pingyang Zhao or Duke Qiao, they both worked hard for the country all their lives - to be honest, the loneliness that the two Mr. Chai experienced since childhood... was all endured for the common people of this world.

Judging from this point of view alone, Duke Zhao's words... were not only inappropriate, but also a heinous crime!

Therefore, it is understandable that Your Highness the King of Chu was furious and said some irrational words.

But, wrong is wrong. "When Cheng Yaojin said this, he saw that everyone was looking at him with shocked eyes, and he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows: "What's the matter? You think I'm just a rough guy? When I was a bandit, conflicts would break out in the village from time to time, and sometimes people would die - wasn't it me who mediated them?"

"Zhijie..." His Majesty Li Er found that the other party had begun to go off topic: "Please continue to talk about the main topic."

"Yes," Cheng Zhijie hurriedly bowed to Emperor Li II upon hearing this.

Then, he said to Chai Lingwu, "Young man from the Chai family, listen to Uncle Cheng and apologize to Duke Zhao first. Remember, you have to kowtow!"

"Oh!" Upon hearing this, Chai Lingwu glanced at Li Kuan, and Li Kuan glanced at Zhang Zhenxuan.

Only then did Zhang Zhenxuan let go.

"Duke Zhao!" Chai Lingwu knelt down again and bowed to the other party: "It was my disrespectful words before, please be magnanimous and don't take it too seriously!"

"..." Seeing this, Changsun Wuji could only twitch the muscles on his face and said insincerely: "It's okay... It's okay... Get up..."

"Your Highness the Prince of Chu," Cheng Zhijie said with great dignity, "You also have to apologize to the Duke of Zhao!"

"..." Upon hearing this, His Royal Highness the King of Chu glanced at Cheng Yaojin, who suddenly blinked at him and then shook his beard.

Okay, Uncle Cheng, I’m going to take a gamble today—I’m going to bet that you won’t cheat me!

Therefore, His Royal Highness the King of Chu, who had already made up his mind, also bowed to Zhangsun Wuji and said, "Duke Zhao, just now... I was joking with you - please don't be offended! I will apologize to you right away! But don't worry, it will not only be a verbal apology, but I will also give you a large amount of gold and silver to show my sincerity!"

After His Royal Highness the King of Chu finished saying this, he turned his gaze to Yuan Tiangang who was in the corner, and the latter gave him an affirmative look.

really!

After getting the answer he wanted, His Royal Highness the King of Chu couldn't help but feel surprised: When did Uncle Cheng become involved with the Dou family?

But no matter what, the one who will suffer the loss in today's dispute is bound to be Changsun Wuji!
