Chapter 2 Li Shimin
"You, come here!"
Wei Shuyu randomly pointed to a boy.
The boy was terrified and dared not move for a long time.
"What? Do you want me to come and invite you?" Wei Shuyu threatened.
After a fierce internal struggle, the person chose to back down.
She walked awkwardly to Wei Shuyu's side.
Wei Shuyu put her hand on his shoulder and looked at the others: "You guys, stay away."
Swish...
They loved hearing that.
The speed at which they retreated was so dazzling that it blinded Wei Shuyu.
If you guys had that kind of skill, would you have been beaten so badly by me?
"B-Big Brother, what's up?"
At this moment, the boy, whose shoulder was being held by Wei Shuyu, asked timidly.
"Tell me, why are you blocking my way?"
"I can't say."
"Don't worry, no one will know that you said it."
"I still can't say."
“I will question all seven of you. If they tell you and you don’t, do you know what the consequences will be?”
"Give him a beating?"
"No, no, no... I'll say it was you who leaked the secret."
The boy's eyes widened immediately.
Despicable, shameless...
He had never seen such an uncivilized person.
"I won't betray you as long as you tell me."
Wei Shuyu had a big smile on his face.
But in the eyes of the boy, he seemed like a demon.
"It's...it's the Crown Prince," the boy said in a low voice.
"Why?"
“Your father impeached him, and he’s seeking revenge.”
Now Wei Shuyu understood the whole story.
Wei Shuyu's father was Wei Zheng, the greatest critic in history.
They'll attack anyone they can get their hands on.
Just a few days ago, they caught Li Chengqian red-handed and gave him a good dressing down in court.
When Wei Zheng criticized someone, it was always with sound reasoning and evidence, leaving the person speechless.
Now the Crown Prince is in a very awkward position, having lost face in front of the entire court.
Afterwards, he was personally reprimanded by Li Shimin.
How could Li Chengqian swallow this insult?
If Wei Zheng can't be touched, can't he touch his son?
The Tang Dynasty was founded on military strength, and there was an unwritten rule...
Elders are not allowed to intervene in fights between younger generations unless someone dies.
And that's how this whole thing happened.
"Okay, I understand."
Wei Shuyu released the boy, but for the sake of the performance, he still questioned the others one by one.
The same method will be used again.
It was a great success; they recruited everyone.
"Wake up..."
Wei Shuyu kicked Cui Shenji, who was lying on the ground pretending to be dead.
"Stop playing dead. Do you really think I can't tell?"
Seeing that Choi Shin-ki still refused to wake up, Uncle Wei stepped on his penis.
"Awoo..."
Choi Shin-ki let out a wail and arched his back.
"Awake?" Wei Shuyu sneered.
"Big brother, what...what are your orders?" Choi Shin-ki clutched his crotch, his face contorted in pain.
"You guys come here and stand in line."
After everyone was in position, Wei Shuyu said with a smile, "Hand over all your money, and you there, take off your clothes and change into one with me."
What?
Everyone stared wide-eyed.
It was as if he doubted he had heard correctly.
"Brother, you...you are Wei Zheng's son." Cui Shenji asked cautiously.
"Hmm, what's wrong?"
“Lord Wei has been honest and upright all his life. You will ruin his reputation by doing this,” Choi Shin-ki explained.
"You big idiot."
Wei Shuyu raised his hand and slapped him: "I'm injured, is it too much to ask you for some medical expenses? You dirtied my clothes, is it too much to ask me to change them?"
Seeing Wei Shuyu get angry, the others quickly took out their money.
At the same time, several well-dressed middle-aged men were walking towards them.
The man in the lead had a beard, a robust build, and an air of quiet arrogance between his brows. He was smiling and talking to the people around him.
"Seeing the people living in peace and prosperity during this visit, I am greatly pleased," the leading man praised.
"It's all thanks to Your Majesty's wisdom."
Several men behind him hurriedly flattered him.
"Look at that vegetable vendor. Even though he's making a little money, the smile on his face doesn't lie."
"Your Majesty is wise."
“Look again, those laborers carrying loads, though covered in sweat, have eyes that yearn for life.”
"Your Majesty is wise."
"And look over there, the children's faces are beaming with happiness..."
Li Shimin's words came to an abrupt end.
Following the gaze, one could see Wei Shuyu collecting medical fees...
If someone hesitates and refuses to pay, just slap them across the face.
How did these violent acts appear to the people involved?
That's robbery.
Cheng Yaojin, in particular, stared wide-eyed.
He's good at this job.
That's how he started his business.
"Your Majesty... Your Majesty." Changsun Wuji looked at Li Shimin awkwardly.
He really went to great lengths to prepare for Li Shimin's trip.
The route is arranged, the actors are arranged...
Just when this investigation into the people's conditions was about to come to a perfect end, a group of children suddenly appeared out of nowhere... oops, I mean, a whole bunch of kids.
"You bastard!"
Sure enough, Li Shimin roared, "How dare you rob people in the street at such a young age? What will you be like when you grow up?"
"Let's go up and take a look."
Li Shimin took the lead and strode quickly toward the group.
"Stop it, you lot!"
The voice arrived before the person.
Wei Shuyu looked up and saw Li Shimin and the others.
Because he had just traveled through time, and because Li Shimin and the others had dressed up carefully, Wei Shuyu didn't recognize them at first.
He only had a vague feeling that these people were somewhat familiar.
Children grow up quickly, and Li Shimin didn't recognize Wei Shuyu for a moment.
"Are you talking to me?" Wei Shuyu pointed to his nose.
"Kid, where are your parents? You're so young, why are you learning to rob people instead of studying properly?"
Seeing the ground covered with copper coins, Li Shimin became even angrier.
"none of your business."
Wei Shuyu wrapped the copper coins in his clothes, hoisted them onto his shoulder, and turned to leave.
"stop!"
Li Shimin blocked his way: "What an arrogant brat! Today I... must teach you a lesson."
"What do you want to do? Get physical?"
Wei Shuyu said with a sneer, "Do you know who my father is? I'll scare you to death if I tell you."
"Who is your father?" Li Shimin sneered, "Even if Fang Xuanling is your father, I will teach you a lesson today!"
Fang Xuanling's lips twitched as he listened from the side.
Thank goodness this arrogant brat isn't my son.
But why does this kid look so familiar?
He looks like...like...
Damn it.
Isn't this Wei Shuyu, Xuancheng's son?
He hurried forward...
"Your Majesty, he is..."
Before he could finish speaking, Li Shimin shoved him away.
"Don't interrupt. Today I'm going to teach this brat a lesson."
Li Shimin's anger level soared rapidly.
Perhaps he wouldn't normally get angry with a child, but for some reason, whenever he saw Wei Shuyu's face, he had an urge to pin him to the ground and rub him hard.
"What a bold and arrogant fool! How dare you insult an official of the imperial court! You'll be punished!" Wei Shuyu turned to Cui Shenji: "Little Jiji, go report this to the authorities!"
Who is Little Jiji?
Choi Shin-ki didn't react until Wei Shu-yu smacked him on the back of the head, at which point he realized it was him who was being called.
