Chapter 1892 Don’t mess with me again
Li Shen and Li Zhi were carried out of the imperial city by eunuchs. Li Shen kept groaning and moaning along the way.
Anyone would feel pain from being beaten with eighty sticks, let alone someone as pretentious as Li Shen.
However, Li Shen was still a person who cared about his reputation. When he left the palace, he was afraid of being seen, so he covered his head with his clothes.
It’s a pity that his royal robes didn’t prevent others from recognizing him.
"Okay, Old Ten, stop yelling. We'll be leaving the Imperial City soon. Today, Fourth Brother will say something fair. The fault is yours.
You shouldn't have deliberately angered Lao Jiu."
Li Tai was really short of manpower on the side, so he looked like Li Shen trying to cover up his crime, and he kept humming for fear of being seen.
No one will notice you if you don't make any noise.
"Hey?" Li Shen lifted the clothes on his head after hearing Li Tai's words.
"Fourth brother, what are you talking about? He hit me, and I can't fight back?
What kind of logic is this? I didn't beat him to death because I was thinking of our brotherly love.
Do you really think I'm that easy to bully?"
Li Shen was not angry, but rather had a hint of sarcasm.
I know you are the legitimate son, but don't bully others too much.
"Li Shen, you sinister villain, if you have the guts, let's have a fair fight and see who will be the one to beat the other to death."
Li Zhi on the side shouted angrily.
"Okay, let's do it now. We'll have a showdown after we get out.
Fighting alone is not a skill, let's see who has more people, and I will chop you into pieces and feed you to the dogs after you finish watching."
Li Shen showed no sign of weakness and looked at Li Zhi provocatively.
"That's enough. My eldest brother just told me to keep an eye on you. If you do anything wrong, don't blame me for telling Aye.
Then it won’t be just a simple beating.”
When Li Tai saw that Li Zhi still wanted to speak, he immediately scolded him.
When the two heard that they were going to tell their father, they stopped spreading the news. Seeing this, Li Tai said earnestly:
"I just don't understand why you two are targeting each other. We are all brothers, we should help each other and stand together against the outside world.
You two are of similar age, and you should have spent more time together than with me and my elder brother. Why did you have to make such a fuss?"
"Fourth brother, everyone knows why this is the case. You should also know that we are all wise people, so there is no need to pretend to be ignorant.
It wasn't me who provoked Li Zhi, but he tried to frame me time and again.
I never did anything cruel to him, not because I cared about our brotherhood, but because I cared about my father and mother.
They are already old, and I don’t want them to experience the pain of losing a child in their old age at this time.
But Li Zhi, you must also remember, don't push me. If you push me too far, I can do it at any time.
From now on, you go your way and I go mine. What you do has nothing to do with me, but just remember not to provoke me again.
I just want to make some money, enjoy myself, and have some romance. I don't want to get involved in any of your crap.
That’s all I have to say. You’ll be fine. If you provoke me again, I won’t forgive you. Stone, go now.”
Li Shen is a person who hates trouble the most. He hates interacting with these politicians the most. He clearly wants to cut the other party into pieces in his heart, but he just says "hello to me" to them.
Li Tai is such a person. Scholars like to beat around the bush. Li Shen doesn't believe that Li Tai doesn't know about what Li Zhi has done.
But still pretending here.
But it’s good now. Li Shen has made the matter clear and everyone doesn’t have to cover up for each other.
Moreover, his plan of raising a tiger has not yet succeeded. He wants to show Li Zhi that after becoming the emperor and empress, they can forget about the past, but don't mess with me in the future. This is the image he wants to show Li Zhi.
He also emphasized that as long as you don't provoke me, what you want to do has nothing to do with me. He just wants to stay out of it.
When Shitou heard Li Shen's order, he hurriedly urged the eunuch to speed up and move forward.
And Li Shen's melodious voice was heard:
"All conditioned phenomena are like dreams, illusions, bubbles, and shadows; like dew and lightning, they should be viewed in this way."
"Like a dream..." Li Tai looked at Li Shen who was going away and repeated what Li Shen had just said.
"Is everything illusory?" Li Tai murmured to himself, thinking slightly.
"Hmph, playing tricks." Li Zhi snorted and didn't take it seriously.
Li Tai sighed softly:
"Ah~~~Old Ten is indeed knowledgeable and talented. If he can concentrate on studying, he will definitely achieve something in the future.
It would not be difficult for him to become a great scholar of the modern times, but unfortunately, the tenth brother is free and easy by nature and does not want to compete with the world. He just wants to be a free and easy wanderer.
You and I are not as good as him."
Li Zhi frowned after hearing this. He didn't want to hear anyone speak well of Li Shen. In his opinion, Li Shen was useless.
They only know some tricks and flattery to make their uncles happy.
Other than that, I don't have any special abilities.
"Okay, Chi Nu, you have to learn to acknowledge others. No one is perfect, and everyone has his or her strengths.
Discovering the strengths of others and then making use of them, this is called knowing people and making good use of them.
Even a broken stone has its uses. This sentence was once said by Lao Shi.
The tenth brother has been able to build such a family business, so he must have some outstanding qualities. We should learn from him and do what he does. Do you understand?"
Seeing that Li Zhi was somewhat unconvinced, Li Tai taught him softly.
"Thank you for your teachings, fourth brother. I understand now." Li Zhi lowered his head to accept the advice. He also understood that what Li Tai said was right.
The two of them walked while talking. When they got out of the imperial city gate, they saw Li Shen struggling to crawl onto the carriage, shouting as he climbed.
He doesn't have the temperament of a prince at all.
"Well... Fourth brother, I'll leave first. I have to see a doctor when I get back. I guess I'll have to lie down for a while this time.
If you miss me, please come to my house to visit me, but please don't bring any supplements or medicinal herbs, I will be ashamed to accept them."
Halfway up, Li Shen saw Li Tai and the others coming out, and he lay there and shouted at Li Tai.
"Old Ten, you deserve this. Don't forget that you just punched me. Do you still want me to come and see you?
You should bring something good to me then, look at the way you hit my nose."
When Li Tai heard this, he pointed at his nose and said that he had just been hit by Li Shen.
The blood hasn't been wiped off yet.
"Uh... forget it. I'm sick now and need to rest." After saying that, Li Shen climbed onto the carriage without looking back.
The carriage moved forward slowly, with guards on the left and right, and guards in front clearing the way and the street. The scene was so grand that it made others envious.
Even Li Tai and Li Zhi, who were watching Li Shenyuan from behind, were full of envy. They came out with only a few guards and a carriage.
But looking at Li Shenru's ceremonial team, he suddenly felt a little shabby as a member of the royal guard.
(No hope, never disappoints. Human-machine.)
