Chapter 15 Chapter 15 "Your Majesty!" Li Bai...
"Your Majesty!" Li Baili said as she bowed.
"Get up." The current person sitting next to him looked at him.
Li Baihe stood up and asked, "I wonder why your Majesty is here?"
Today, he thought for a moment and said, "A fish with a human face appeared in a small fishing village. Do you know about this?"
Li Baili was confused: "I don't know."
Should he know? He hasn't even gone out! What does he know? If he really knew, he would be unhappy. I really don't understand why he likes to ask about these things outside.
Today, he is very satisfied with his confused expression, thinking that this is the expression he should have when facing the situation outside. However, he does not believe that he really knows nothing. He just thinks that he is pretending and it is just a trick to win favor.
After all, the current emperor is no longer Li Baili. It is normal for Li Baili to please the current emperor, seek a way to survive, and live a better life.
Didn’t we just invite someone from outside to come in a while ago?
If Li Baihe didn't know anything, how could he have picked this person? Wouldn't it be enough to just pick someone else? He was so confused that he really believed that he knew nothing.
Today he sneered: "Have you ever seen such a situation?"
Li Baili hesitated.
I have never seen such a situation, but I have heard of similar situations. When I was the emperor in the past, many memorials stated that a human-faced beast had been discovered.
In the end, it was confirmed that it was either dazzlement or a deliberate fake that died soon after. It could not have lived for more than two days, so it does not count.
"Just say it!" The present ruler slammed the table.
Li Baili came back to her senses and hesitated, "I haven't seen it."
"How dare you lie to me?" The current emperor stared at him.
Li Baili said quickly, "I dare not deceive His Majesty, but I have never seen such a situation before. At most, I have seen similar cases, but in the end they were all proven to be nonsense and not worthy of being mentioned in public, so I will not talk about it."
The then emperor snorted coldly. He didn't dare to lie to him. His mood suddenly improved. He threw the copied memorial in his face and said, "Take a look."
Li Baili took it, glanced at it casually and put it back.
He really had no interest in these things. He had already heard them once and just took a quick look at them.
But in the eyes of today's people, Li Baili's reaction was as if it was a hot potato. She was unwilling to hold it in her hands for even a moment longer, as if she was afraid of burning herself.
The current man narrowed his eyes and looked at him, but suddenly felt that maybe he was the one who did it, otherwise, why was he so guilty? Why didn't he even want to take another look?
"Tell me, how do you think this should be handled?" The present ruler took the memorial back and asked Li Baili slowly.
Li Baili hesitated, secretly complaining in her heart, what does this have to do with me? Why do I have to get involved in this? Can't get rid of it, right? Can't get rid of it, right? !
"Speak!" The present ruler picked up the teacup and gently blew away the hot tea in the cup. His tone was unquestionable, serious and solemn, even a little cold.
Li Baili knew that this was unavoidable, so she lowered her eyes and said, "Send someone to check. If there is nothing unusual, destroy the fish with human faces, appease the people, and then go home. If there is something unusual, deal with it, deal with the fish with human faces, and finally appease the people, and then come back."
"You seem to be very confident, as if you already knew what to do," the current leader raised his eyebrows, staring at him with a half-smile, as if staring at the colorful float floating above the bait, "Why don't you tell the truth?"
Li Baili frowned, not wanting to argue with him, she lowered her head, her forehead touching the ground, and said sincerely and coldly: "I really don't know what your majesty is talking about!"
The current emperor felt that he was a little angry. He knew that he would not get anything out of him if he asked more questions. He wanted to quit while he was ahead, but he felt a little unwilling to give up. He got angry and said, "Why are you angry? It is a blessing that you have cultivated for several lifetimes for me to come to you and ask questions in person. How dare you get angry?
If it was proven that you were plotting a rebellion, you should have been chopped off long ago! You are still alive, what else are you dissatisfied with? How dare you be dissatisfied? "
Li Baili didn't know why he was being so unreasonable. She narrowed her eyes, slowly raised her head, looked at him and asked, "Your Majesty, are you angry?"
Seeing Li Baili's cold look, Xianzhong suddenly felt a little afraid of him. He felt inexplicably suppressed because of his generation and age. He subconsciously avoided Li Baili's gaze and said bluntly, "I'm asking you now!"
Li Baili laughed and said nonchalantly: "If your majesty wants to take my life, then take it. Maybe my life will be better after I die, so there is no need to be obsessed with it. If your majesty is happy if I give up my life, then your majesty can be happy."
The current leader stood up suddenly and took a step back, as if he was intimidated by his aura. He couldn't stand in front of him, let alone look him in the eye. He just stared at him with disbelief and asked, "What did you say?"
When these words were spoken, it was as if a young lady had seen her lover being embraced by women, but still could not believe it and had to question him again.
Li Baili coughed twice and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, if you want my life, just take it. I won't be an eyesore here. Anyway, I can't make the decision. How can Your Majesty not know that?"
The present ruler sneered and threw the teacup in front of him. The cup immediately shattered and the tea leaves inside fell out. The remaining tea foam slowly overflowed from the gap, making the ground wet and exuding a strong and inappropriate tea fragrance.
"Hello! You dare to challenge me? Then tell me clearly! What do you think I should know? You just want to say," the emperor's eyes turned red with anger for some reason, and he said angrily, "I forced you to swear that you would never leave this place in your life. If you commit suicide, all your confidants will be beheaded in public, so you can't even commit suicide, right?"
Li Baili just remained silent.
The current emperor snorted coldly, but he had a lot to say, and he blurted it all out like beans pouring out of a bamboo tube: "I did think of killing them all, but aren't they all alive? They are all fine! They are still holding official positions!
If they really wanted to kill them, would they not prepare new people? Would they not leak the news? Could you not know anything? Would they surrender? Would they really not be desperate enough to pass on the news to you, asking you to go out and rebuild the old dynasty with them?"
The current emperor took a breath and suddenly calmed down. He sat back down and poured himself a cup of tea. He held the tea with a blank expression and said, "I don't want to be called a tyrant like you."
He took a sip of tea, as if using it to quench his anger, and muttered to himself: "I still hope that the dynasty will last for thousands of years, how can I be provoked by you like this? Do you really think you are so important?"
The current emperor narrowed his eyes, put the tea back, looked straight at Li Baili, and said bluntly: "The country is more important than the emperor. Don't say you are not the emperor now, and you can't even weigh two taels. Even if you are still the emperor now, you can't compare with the country!"
Li Baili was indifferent to what he said, but he kept staring at her. Li Baili lowered her eyes, expressionless, and said, "Your Majesty is right."
He returned to his cold, snowman-like appearance and would not be easily shaken no matter what.
People today just hate the way he is. No matter how you look at it, he is so cold that he can freeze people to death, but he can never be warmed up. If you light a fire on him, he will turn into water and flow away. You can’t catch him, and you can’t keep him!
How hateful!
I really want to slap him, but I am the emperor now, I can't be so unreasonable. But I am the emperor now, can't I do whatever I want? I want to slap him today!
I want to see if I can still be so cold if I slap him!
No, no! I am a kind emperor, I can't do that!
The present gentleman stood up and took two steps, and suddenly remembered that in this villa halfway up the mountain, besides Li Baili, there was also another person, Li Bai and the guilty servant who was specially requested!
Li Baili could be indifferent to him, but she couldn't be indifferent to the servant she had specifically asked for, right? !
I want to see when he can show a different expression!
I have to see it!
I am the emperor! I can see whatever I want!
The emperor couldn't help laughing, feeling happy, and said to the eunuch beside him: "Go and call that servant over!"
The eunuch took the order and quickly pulled over the young man who was so sleepy that he could not open his eyes and tried to fall asleep on the way.
"Why don't you kneel down?!" the eunuch pushed the young man and said.
The young man knelt down with a plop and kowtowed. He was just too sleepy and hadn't even figured out the situation, so he didn't notice that Li Baili was kneeling not far from him.
The current gentleman looked at Li Baili proudly, as if he was showing off to him that he had just snatched a nice new toy from him. Li Baili knew what he was thinking, so she lowered her eyes and didn't look at him.
The present man felt that he had been let down and was a little unhappy. He kicked the boy and asked, "Wake up! When did you go to bed?"
The boy suddenly woke up, shivered, tried to open his eyes, and replied, "Just fell asleep."
He originally wanted to say that he hadn't slept, but he was sleeping before he came. If he said no, it would be deceiving the king.
If he talked about what happened last night and said that he didn't sleep, that would be the truth, but it would expose the fact that he was lying in front of Li Bai.
Saying that she had slept was indeed a lie, but she would not let him expose her previous lie in front of Li Baili, so it was better not to mention what happened last night.
The young man's body bent down involuntarily. He was really sleepy. He had not been so sleepy originally, but after a nap, he felt even sleepier than before, as if the sleepiness bug had suddenly been hooked out.
The current emperor kicked him again and said, "I have an assignment here. I want to give you a chance to redeem yourself and make meritorious contributions. Do you want it?"
The young man stood up and said, "Your Majesty, please give me a chance!"
