Chapter 372 The unreasonable old man



Shangguan Lingyun listened to the discussions of the people around him and the voices of Ye Xiaoxiao, and he already had a general idea in his mind.

"Wang Xiao, there are too many people here. Take him to a secluded place. I want to have a good chat with him."

The old man felt a little scared when he heard this, but when he thought of the golden medal of immunity from death in his hand, he gained courage.

"Go ahead. Justice will prevail in the world. Even if you are the emperor, you cannot oppress the people at will."

Ye Xiaoxiao was so angry that she laughed. This old man actually dared to challenge the emperor. She really didn't know whether he was ignorant or what.

Wang Xiao drove the carriage and the old man followed behind, and they soon arrived at an inn at the foot of Taikang Mountain.

Wang Xiao booked rooms for everyone, and then took the old man to the private room on the second floor.

The shopkeeper could tell from their temperament that they were not ordinary people, so he was very polite.

After Tianxuan asked the shopkeeper for a few of his signature dishes, he asked the shopkeeper and the waiter to leave.

After a few people were left, the old man sat down on a stool beside him, picked up his chopsticks and started eating.

Wang Xiao kicked the stool under his butt over and then snorted coldly.

"How dare you! How dare you be so presumptuous in front of His Majesty and His Majesty."

Old Han was so envious of the food on the table that he forgot their identities for a moment.

He had been used to getting free food and drinks over the years, so he sat down out of habit.

If Wang Xiao hadn't reminded him, he would have almost forgotten the identities of the people in front of him.

Sitting on the ground, Old Han broke out in a cold sweat out of fear, then stood up and said firmly.

"You bumped into me, shouldn't you treat me to a meal?"

"Even if you are the emperor and empress, you can't bully others like this."

Ye Xiaoxiao looked at Old Han with some confusion. She really couldn't understand how such a brave person could exist in such a feudal society.

"Old man, you're talking about the law with the emperor? Aren't you afraid we'll just kill you?"

Old Han was a little frightened by Wang Xiao's aura at first, but when he touched the golden medal of immunity from death in his arms, he was no longer afraid.

He slowly took out the gold medal and placed it in front of everyone.

"Even if you are the emperor and empress, you cannot kill people at will."

"What's more, I have a golden medal of immunity from death granted by the late emperor, so you can't kill me."

Ye Xiaoxiao wanted to take the gold medal to take a look, but the old man quickly took it back.

"My lady, this gold medal is not something that anyone can get."

Ye Xiaoxiao snorted coldly and looked at the old man with disdain.

"You said it was a golden medal of immunity from death, and it is it. How come I, the Queen, have never seen it before?"

Upon hearing this, the old man immediately stared at Ye Xiaoxiao.

"Why, the Emperor is still here, and you, the Empress, want to shirk your responsibility?"

"Don't think you can do whatever you want just because you brought me to this empty room."

"Many people saw me when I came in."

"If I die, others will definitely say that the new emperor is unfilial, disobedient to his elders, and unworthy of being emperor."

Ye Xiaoxiao was so angry that she wanted to go up and kill the old man.

[This old man, he's so arrogant just because he has a lousy sign. Today, I'm going to give it a try and see if I can kill him.]

Shangguan Lingyun was left in a state of confusion by Ye Xiaoxiao's inner thoughts.

If he hadn't seen Ye Xiaoxiao in a playful mood, he would have just asked Wang Xiao to deal with her.

"Xiaoxiao, don't bother with him. Leave it to me. I have plenty of ways to deal with him."

After Shangguan Lingyun finished speaking, Ye Xiaoxiao sat down with a snort.

Old Han looked at Shangguan Lingyun a little nervously, but at this time, he could no longer retreat.

"You, what do you want?"

Shangguan Lingyun curled his lips, "Old Han, do you know that the golden medal of immunity from death is only useful to the emperor who issued it, and is useless to future emperors?"

Old Man Han shook his head. "I don't believe it. Daxia is still the same Daxia. The former emperor is still alive. If I say this gold medal is useful, then it is useful."

Shangguan Lingyun was so angry that he laughed at the old man.

"Bold, do you know who you are talking to?"

"It's broad daylight, and you haven't even had any drinks yet, but you're already drunk. You're simply courting death."

Wang Xiao yelled angrily, and the old man shrank back, but still didn't learn his lesson.

"Don't use your status to pressure me, an old man. You bumped into me, not me looking for trouble."

After the old man finished speaking, Shangguan Lingyun stopped Wang Xiao from saying anything more and instead pulled Ye Xiaoxiao to sit down and eat.

"You must be tired after walking all the way. Let's eat something first."

"Wang Xiao, please take the trouble to find the county magistrate here. I want to see what's going on."

After Shangguan Lingyun finished speaking, Wang Xiao turned and left. The old man wanted to stop him, but Wang Xiao had already left quickly.

"Your Majesty, Madam, what do you mean?"

Shangguan Lingyun smiled faintly: "It's nothing interesting. I will discuss it with you in detail when your family arrives."

After Shangguan Lingyun finished speaking, he accompanied Ye Xiaoxiao for dinner. Ye Xiaoxiao was originally in a bad mood because she was angry with the old man.

But seeing his eager look, Ye Xiaoxiao suddenly became interested again.

"The chef at this inn is good. The fish is fresh and the beef is good too. It's delicious."

"Tianxuan, don't just stand there. Come and eat with us. It won't taste good if it gets cold."

The old man was drooling with greed, but Shangguan Lingyun looked at him coldly and he didn't dare to go forward.

He just hoped that after they finished eating, he could have a feast.

Not long after Wang Xiao went out, he met the county magistrate who was sweating profusely.
