Chapter 182: Beat the dog to see its owner
Hunting Palace.
"What are you?!"
"You have no official position, but you are relying on His Majesty's favor to dominate here. You are more powerful than the prince!"
"His Royal Highness King Lin is a prince! He is of royal blood! You are so arrogant that you do not distinguish between master and servant! You don't even take the royal family in your eyes! Who on earth doesn't take the royal family and your majesty in their eyes?!"
"Who gave you such courage?!"
Li Wuji glared at Yuqing, whose face turned red, and asked a barrage of questions, leaving Yuqing speechless and trembling all over.
"You...you, you, you, you are presumptuous!"
Yuqing pointed at Li Wuji angrily, and his lips began to tremble with anger.
Li Wuji snorted coldly and winked directly at Lu Yuan beside him.
Lu Yuan understood and without saying a word, he walked straight to the guard who was being escorted by Yu Qing's men, snatched him away and brought him back to Li Yuan.
"Okay! You are so brave!"
"Who do you think you are?! How dare you look down on me like this! To put it mildly, you are a Marquis personally conferred by His Majesty, but to put it crudely, aren't you just a bastard who walked out of a brothel?! You still have such a good name!
What is Mr. Wuji?!"
"If it weren't for Your Majesty's love, what qualifications do you have to stand in front of me?!"
"Come here, take him down for me!"
The furious Yuqing completely lost her mind, cursing and shouting at her men.
Yuqing, who was used to being domineering, had never seen anyone dare to treat her with such disrespect. She was so angry that she almost fainted.
His subordinates were used to being arrogant. When they heard Yuqing's order, they ignored it and walked quickly towards Li Wuji, intending to capture Li Wuji!
But before they could get close to Li Wuji, Lu Yuan, who could not hold himself back for a long time, took action directly. He knocked down several people with three strikes, five divided by two, and then directly pulled out the saber in one of them's hands and placed it directly on him.
On Yuqing’s neck!
Just now when Yuqing said that Li Wuji was a gangster who came out of a brothel, Lu Yuan had already had murderous intentions!
"What do you want to do?!"
Yu Qing turned pale with fright and shouted in horror. She probably never thought that Li Wuji would attack him directly in front of so many people!
Lu Yuan held the knife in his hand tightly and turned to look at Li Wuji. As long as Li Wuji gave him a wink, he would immediately take off Yu Qing's head!
Li Wuji looked at Yuqing coldly, with no expression on his face and remained silent.
To be honest, his disgust for Yuqing has reached its limit, and he really wants to take away Yuqing's life! But he also knows that the empress loves Yuqing very much, and if he offends the empress just for the sake of temporary pleasure, then it is not a crime.
As the saying goes, when it comes to beating a dog, it depends on the owner. If a dog affects one's overall plan, it is indeed not worth the loss.
"Sir, don't forget it."
Li Yuan on the side also turned his head and approached Li Wuji, and reminded him softly.
Li Wuji's face was expressionless, his eyes fixed on Yuqing, thinking about what to do next.
The matter has reached this stage. If we let Yuqing go without doing something, it would be unjustifiable. After all, so many people are watching.
When something happened, Li Wuji was like being stuck there. It would be wrong to take action or not to take action.
"stop!"
At this moment, a cold voice sounded, and Li Jingyao suddenly came from not far away.
Seeing Li Jingyao appear, Li Wuji couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, and a smile flashed in his heart.
"I have met His Highness."
Li Wuji bowed his hands and said hello with a smile.
"I have met His Highness Taiqing."
Li Yuan on the side also hurriedly saluted.
"Uncle, there is no need to be polite."
Li Jingyao smiled and stretched out her hand to help Li Yuan up. After saying a few words of greeting, she turned to look at Li Wuji with a slightly solemn look on her face.
She knew Yuqing's status in the palace best, and she already blamed Li Wuji for being too reckless.
"Your Highness, please save me quickly, Marquis Li'an wants to kill me!"
When Yuqing saw Li Jingyao, he hurriedly begged and shouted, with a look of aggrievement on his face, as if he was the one who was being bullied.
"What's going on?!"
Li Jingyao turned to look at Li Wuji, pretending to be dissatisfied and asked, winking at Li Wuji as she spoke.
"Your Highness, it's nothing. I was just joking with Lord Yuqing."
Li Wuji explained with a smile, and then waved to Lu Yuan.
Lu Yuan gritted his teeth, reluctantly let go of Yu Qing, and returned the saber in his hand to Yu Qing's subordinate.
"joke?!"
"The knife is placed on my neck. Is this a joke?!"
Yuqing, who had regained her freedom, opened her eyes wide and looked at Li Wuji with dissatisfaction and asked.
"Lord Yuqing, are you angry? Sorry, the joke was a bit too much. Please be careful next time."
Li Wuji smiled, cupped his hands at Yuqing, and said haha.
"Then I'm joking with you too!"
Yu Qing snorted coldly, snatched the saber from his hands as he spoke, and walked quickly towards Li Wuji!
"Enough!"
Li Jingyao shouted sharply, took a step across, and stood directly in front of Yu Qing.
"So many people are watching! Haven't you had enough trouble yet?!"
"Do we have to alarm His Majesty?!"
Li Jingyao looked at Yuqing with a sullen face and asked dissatisfied.
"Yuqing doesn't dare."
Yuqing moved her lips, hesitated to speak, and finally glared at Li Wuji, took a step back, and bowed respectfully to Li Jingyao.
He had already seen that Li Jingyao would definitely continue to pester Li Anhou, which would be of no benefit to him.
"Okay, since this is just a joke, let's stop here. Take your people and go."
Li Jingyao glanced at Yuqing impatiently, waved her hands and said.
"yes."
Yuqing agreed, turned around unwillingly, waved to several of his subordinates, and prepared to leave.
"etc!"
But at this moment Li Wuji spoke again.
"What do you want to do again?"
Li Jingyao frowned, turned to look at Li Wuji, lowered her voice and asked, and started to wink again.
Li Wuji smiled at Li Jingyao, bypassed Li Jingyao, and came to Yuqing, who had stopped and turned around.
"Master Hou, what else do you have to say?"
Yuqing gritted her teeth and asked coldly.
"I apologize to His Highness Prince Lin."
Li Wuji shook his head in the direction of Li Yuan and said lightly.
After hearing Li Wuji's words, Yuqing frowned instantly, a trace of resentment flashed in his eyes.
Li Yuan on the side was also stunned for a moment, and glanced at Li Wuji with a complicated expression, as if he didn't expect that Li Wuji was still speaking for him at this time.
"Your Highness, just now Master Yuqing directly contradicted King Lin, showed no distinction between superiority and inferiority, and despised the royal family. So many people were watching. If he just left like this, I'm afraid the Chinese and Chinese military officials would gossip, right?"
Li Wuji turned to look at Li Jingyao and said slowly.
"Is this possible?"
Li Jingyao frowned, looked at Yuqing, and asked in a deep voice.
"Just now, Yuqing lost his sense of proportion and insulted His Highness King Lin with his words. I hope His Highness will forgive me."
Yuqing swallowed, did not answer Li Jingyao's words, turned around and bowed respectfully to Li Yuan, and said with an apologetic expression.
"Since it's all a misunderstanding, that's all."
Li Yuan was generous, waved his hand and said cheerfully.
"Thank you, His Highness King Lin."
"Walk!"
Yuqing smiled gratefully, turned around and said coldly to his men, and left quickly with a few men.
"You don't want to stop anywhere."
Seeing that the conflict had been resolved, Li Jingyao breathed a sigh of relief, turned to look at Li Wuji, blamed and complained helplessly, and couldn't help but shake her head.
Li Wuji smiled and pretended to be stupid, grinned and spread his hands, but as he looked at Yu Qing's eyes gradually moving away, there was a hint of murderous intent that was not easy to detect.
He would not let Yu Qing go just like this. He had to write down this account first.
Since King Lin was nearby and there were many people watching the fun, Li Jingyao did not stay long. After a few words with Li Wuji, she dismissed the officials watching the fun and took Tong Zhuo to pay her respects to the empress.
During this period, he did not forget to urge Li Wuji to develop a bottle of Tianxiang Jade-Building Ointment for himself as soon as possible after returning to the capital and send it to the East Palace.
Because Li Wuji came forward to speak up for him, Lin Wang Liyuan was grateful, so he invited Li Wuji to his camp for a small gathering.
