I became emperor in the Tang Dynasty by relying on the palace fighting system

Li Zhao’s hundred-day banquet is coming soon.

Because of the sufficient preparations in advance, this Hundred Days Banquet was unprecedentedly grand. The banquet was held in the three immortal mountains in the southern part of Shanglinyuan - Penglai, Fangzhang and Yingzhou.

The three immortal mountains are all above the artificial lake fed by the Longlin Canal. The lake is about ten miles in diameter. The three immortal mountains are three hundred steps apart and are more than a hundred feet above the water.

There is Tongzhen Temple on Penglai Island, Xiling Temple on Fangzhang Island, Zongxian Palace on Yingzhou Island, and the rest are Fengting Yueguan. They are arranged in a staggered manner on the island and are all decorated with carved beams and painted rafters, which are incomparable to ordinary palaces and temples.

The Qisheng Temple of Hebi Palace is located in the north of Shanglin Garden, high on the mountain and magnificent. Li Zhao had set out from the Qisheng Temple long ago in a sedan chair. She nestled in Madam Zhang's arms, closing her eyes as if pretending to take a nap, while talking to the system assistant Qingluan.

"Qingluan, you have to cooperate with me later. This time, I'm going to teach Wu Minzhi, who takes human life lightly, a lesson!" Li Zhao said viciously in his heart.

Qingluan responded solemnly.

When they arrived at the lake, they took a boat ashore and entered the main fairy palace of Yingzhou Island. Along the way, countless officials and ladies bowed to Li Zhao.

It was not until he arrived at the gate of the Palace of the Immortals that Li Zhao discovered that Li Zhi and Wu Meiniang had already been waiting there.

"Wow! Host, are the couple waiting here specially for your visit?" Qingluan exclaimed.

Li Zhao snorted softly and said with a smug smile: "It seems to be the case."

Madam Zhang bowed to Li Zhi and Wu Meiniang. Li Zhi waved his hand to exempt her from the formality, and then went to personally carry Li Zhao over.

Li Zhi smiled and said, "Today I am hosting a banquet for Yudou Xuanzun and have prepared some light wine. I hope Xuanzun will show me favor and not despise the crude food of the mortal world."

Li Zhao just glanced at him and smiled: "No problem."

After taking his seat and accepting the congratulations from the officials, Li Zhao looked at the faces of the officials below. When it was Wu Min's turn, he suddenly asked, "Why do you all have the same expression?"

Everyone was stunned, not understanding what was going on, and Li Zhao then explained: "They are all laughing, it's meaningless."

Everyone is speechless. So what do you have to say, old man?

"Forget it, let me hear your voices! Who do you want to congratulate next? Come forward!" Li Zhao was still performing according to the script he had rehearsed, pretending to point to Wu Minzhi.

The gods want to listen to their voices?!

Everyone's scalps tightened, and they all concentrated and calmed their minds, eliminating all distracting thoughts, for fear that they would have some bad thoughts and offend the gods and be punished.

They all heard that the nine palace servants who were punished by Xuan Zun that day met with bad luck that very day, and there was even an unlucky guy who got diarrhea and fell into the toilet, breaking his head!

They don't want to make the same mistake again!

Although Wu Minzhi had said a lot of nice things that day, when he was in front of the immortal, he immediately became much more tactful. He came over to pay his respects in a proper manner and said, "Your servant Wu Minzhi pays homage to Yudou Xuanzun. I wish Xuanzun a long life and that he will soon enter Yuqing."

What a pity! No matter how humble he was, Li Zhao was determined to find fault with him and didn't want to give him a chance to not commit a crime.

Li Zhao remained silent for a long time. He did not ask Wu Minzhi to stand up like he did before. Instead, he confirmed with Qingluan again: "Qingluan, are you sure that the primary intelligence reduction card can make Wu Minzhi confused?"

She used a primary intelligence reduction card on Wu Minzhi, and then said: "Your heart is really... well, a little dark!"

The primary IQ reduction card allows a person to expose his or her most filthy thoughts and express them through verbal actions. It lasts for one minute.

Hearing this, Li Zhi's eyes suddenly became sharp, and Wu Meiniang looked at her nephew with a strange look.

Wu Minzhi's heart skipped a beat. He was about to say something to express his loyalty when Li Zhao from above spoke again.

"Come on, tell me what you really think of me, and let me hear it!"

At the same time, Li Zhao showed the traces of the card's use, and everyone saw a colorful light falling on Wu Shiji. The next second, Wu Shiji actually blurted out a dirty word!

"What Yudou Xuanzun? Isn't she just a woman? Sooner or later, she will be mine!"

Wu Meiniang narrowed her eyes dangerously, and Li Zhi's face turned as black as the bottom of a pot in an instant!

The ministers and their wives' mouths were so big that they could fit a duck egg in them: "???!!!"

Although they already knew that Wu Minzhi was not a good person, they never expected that this guy was so stubborn!

You dare to offend a respected god like this, are you going to die?!

In the silence of the whole audience, Ruyi was the first to react and shouted angrily: "How outrageous!!"

Facing the cold gazes of Wu Meiniang and Li Zhi, Wu Minzhi felt as if he had fallen into an icy cave. He reacted quickly, knelt down hurriedly, and slapped himself desperately: "Your Majesty deserves to die! Your Majesty, Your Majesty did not mean it, Your Majesty..."

Li Zhao's face was already dark blue: "What a beast! I have been in charge of Fengdu for so many years, but this is the first time I have met someone who dares to say such words in front of me."

Her tone was particularly grim: "Tell me, how should I deal with you?"

Wu Minzhi's mother, Lady Han Guo Wu Shun, hurriedly came over and knelt down to kowtow: "Xuan Zun! Xuan Zun, please calm down! Minzhi didn't mean it!"

Li Zhao was unmoved. Even with so many civil and military officials, noble ladies and ladies around him, no one came forward to plead for Wu Minzhi.

After all, they have no relationship with Wu Minzhi, so why should they risk being hated by a god and speak for him?

It was obviously this kid who made a stupid mistake first and humiliated Yu Dou Xuan Zun!

The hall was completely silent, with only the faint sound of rain bells coming from the breeze blowing under the eaves. It was extremely ethereal, but made people even more uneasy.

Wu Minzhi didn't dare to breathe. His face was as pale as paper and his kneeling body was shaking like a sieve. Li Zhao didn't say anything and the scene remained frozen at that moment.

Seeing that the atmosphere was almost brewing, Li Zhao deliberately turned around and asked Li Zhi: "Emperor, according to your laws in the human world, what should we do in this situation?"

Li Zhi said in a deep voice: "I have issued an edict that Xuanzun should be above me, the emperor, according to the etiquette. Wu Minzhi used foul language to insult Xuanzun and should be charged with the crime of taking advantage of public opinion. He is an unforgivable crime and should be executed according to the law."

Li Zhao hummed and smiled: "Good judgment."

The Jinwu Guards standing in the palace slowly approached. Lady Hanguo was already scared to death. She turned to Li Zhi, Wu Meiniang, and Li Hong with tears streaming down her face: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, Your Majesty, Your Majesty! Minzhi is guilty of his words, but he is my only son, Your Majesty!"

"Your Highness, sister!"

She begged Wu Meiniang desperately, and even Wu Meiniang's wife, Rongguo, was helped away from the table and knelt down tremblingly:

"Your Majesty, Your Highness! Minzhi didn't mean it. I hope that Master Xuan will forgive him and spare him this time!"

Wu Meiniang couldn't bear it anymore. She could ignore Wu Minzhi, but she couldn't ignore her own mother and sister: "Xuan Zun..."

Li Zhao squinted at Wu Meiniang and said, "Queen, do you want me to spare him?"

Wu Meiniang stood up and bowed to her. "This beast is filthy and arrogant. I do not ask for forgiveness from Xuanzun. I only ask Xuanzun to consider that your body and my Wu family share the same blood, and give this beast some dignity and punish him in a different way."

Li Hong has always been gentle and docile. This time he stepped out and bowed to Li Zhao, saying, "Please show mercy, Master Xuan."

"Tsk!" Li Zhao made a "tsk!" sound, his eyes rolling around happily, and no one knew what he was thinking.

However, Mrs. Han Guo and Wu Minzhi's hearts suddenly rose to their throats.

Because of the little baby above, one sentence can decide the life or death of the mother and child.

After a moment, Li Zhao smiled and narrowed his eyes, his tone as brisk as the clouds in the sky: "Well, since the queen has spoken, I will be merciful and spare your life, and punish you with another punishment!"

As for Crown Prince Li Hong who also pleaded for mercy, Li Zhao simply ignored him.

Madam Hanguo and Wu Minzhi were about to express their gratitude as if they had escaped from heaven, when they heard Li Zhao, the leader, say in a low voice: "Wu Minzhi criticized the emperor's carriage, and should be executed according to the law. However, considering that he is the nephew of the Empress, he will be spared and sentenced to—"

She paused for a moment with a sense of humor, and saw everyone's nervous eyes as she wished, and then she said:

"Castration."

Everyone in the hall was shocked. The ministers, ladies of honor, noble ladies, royal relatives, and palace servants were all like goldfish with bulging eyes, they were so dumbfounded!

Castration? !

What a shame and humiliation this is for a man!

Moreover, a handsome and charming young man like Wu Minzhi, Yu Dou Xuan Zun actually punished him by turning him into a eunuch? !

Madam Hanguo was stunned, and Madam Rongguo almost couldn't breathe. The mother and daughter both fell to the ground. Wu Minzhi's face was pale, his eyeballs were trembling, and he said with trembling lips: "I, I don't have any children yet..."

Li Zhao had already thought of a plan for him to deal with this: "No problem, don't you have a sister? Adopt her into the Wu family, set up a female household, confer the title of Duke of Zhou, and let her inherit the Duke of Zhou's mansion, and continue the family line."

The invisible Qingluan looked dazed.

Host, you might as well kill him!

At least it's a quick death!

Cutting off the root of life, establishing a female household, and conferring the title of Duke...

Then, Li Zhao turned to Li Zhi and said, "Killing people and seeing blood will bring bad karma. I can't do it. Emperor, please issue the decree!"

Very good, it perfectly covered up the real reason why he didn't punish Wu Minzhi.

Li Zhi had previously issued an edict stating that Yudou Xuanzun's etiquette system was above that of the emperor. Now that Wu Minzhi had committed a stupid act in public and violated the law, and Xuanzun was unwilling to forgive him, there was nothing that could be done.

Li Zhi gave an order in a deep voice: "We will follow Xuanzun's order. Wu Minzhi is no longer able to inherit the throne, so her sister will be given the title of Lady of Zhou State, and a female household will be established. Her son will be Duke of Zhou State."

Li Zhao was not satisfied with the content of Li Zhi's edict.

This is extremely unfair. Why can't women inherit the title like men, but can only be used as reproductive tools to give birth to heirs to the title?

She was extremely angry and furious about this.

But I also understand that this is the current state of the world. Men in a patriarchal society view women as reproductive tools, slaves serving them, and inflatable dolls that they can play with at will.

Haha, but it doesn’t matter. Didn’t I come here to break the stinky rules set by these beastly men?

Li Zhao couldn't help sneering in his heart, you bastards, your grandparents are here to teach you a lesson!
