Chapter 2699 I Heard You're Plotting a Rebellion
Li Shen raised his voice, as if it were a lie that someone's father had actually hit someone.
"That's right, it's not untrue that any father would hit someone."
"I'm afraid Duke Lu will beat you even harder."
"I guessed so. Yuchi Jia probably shouldn't be treated lightly either."
Right after Li Shen finished speaking, everyone started talking about how badly he had been beaten.
Cheng Chubi, the third son of the Cheng family who had been speaking earlier, also joined in at this moment.
The children in their family are incredibly resilient to blows, and they often get a beating from their father when they practice martial arts.
If someone makes a mistake, they might even be hung up and beaten.
None of the six brothers survived.
"My heroes, what's there to be afraid of if you get beaten up? Perhaps you won't get beaten up after you defeat them?"
I'm going to tell you why we need to defeat them.
Our lowest odds are 10 to 1. Think about it, if everyone bets on His Majesty to win...
At least several million strings of cash went into it, and the losses alone amounted to hundreds of thousands of strings of cash, which would amount to five thousand strings of cash for each of you.
If those noble and aristocratic families were to participate, the stakes could rise to tens of millions of strings of cash, and we would have to pay out millions.
Li Shen counted the accounts for these people on his fingers, but he only used some tricks.
The greatest losses were suffered by the imperial court and the Prince Ji's residence.
"Over a million strings of cash? That much?"
"There can't be that many people betting, can there?"
"Of course he would! Who wouldn't bet on a sure-win bet? Who dares to defeat His Majesty?"
Upon hearing that a million strings of cash would be lost, the crowd immediately began to discuss it again.
Li Shen pressed his advantage and continued:
"That's why I want you to win. I hope you won't disappoint me."
"Your Highness, rest assured, we will do everything in our power to protect our money." The crowd immediately became excited.
"Okay, let's call this operation the Money Protection Operation, but remember not to announce it to the outside world."
If those old foxes find out, they'll probably use despicable means to prevent you from participating.
Remember? "
"Your Highness, rest assured, we will keep this in mind." The group immediately agreed.
Li Shen naturally didn't want them to reveal the plan; this was just one part of Li Shen's plan.
To be honest, Li Shen really didn't place his hopes on them.
However, it would be even better if they could do it themselves, so that Li Shen wouldn't have to resort to dirty tricks.
Today is just the first step in the plan; it will not be implemented for another two months.
"Hey~~~ Are you all plotting a rebellion here?"
Just then, a mocking voice rang out from the doorway, filled with disdain and ridicule.
All eyes turned to him, and what he saw almost made Li Shen wet himself.
He quickly jumped off the stool, parted the crowd, and went to the front to bow deeply.
"I have met Father."
"See Your Majesty."
The playboys behind him also followed suit and bowed.
"No need for formalities." Li Shimin nodded, walked straight in, and found a seat.
Everyone stood aside quietly, waiting for His Majesty's instructions.
Li Shimin looked up and scanned the group of spoiled young men. Some were already in their thirties, while others had not yet reached adulthood.
He didn't understand why these people were able to surround that rebellious son and obey his every word.
Could it be that this rebellious son really possesses some kind of sorcery and has cursed all these people?
"I just heard that you were plotting a rebellion here, so I came to see what was going on. You don't need to be reserved, please continue."
