"Oh dear!" he exclaimed dramatically, "It's all your fault for making this floor so slippery! We're going to have to pay for this again..."
"You..." Yi Yusong was almost furious. These people were clearly doing this on purpose!
"Enough!" Zhang Erhe said, feigning a reprimand. "Stop it, all of you! This is the Baiyue Royal Palace, not on the street!"
Turning to Yi Yusong, he cupped his hands and said, "King Baiyue, please calm your anger. We will take our leave now and return another day. As for compensation for those glasses..."
"I will compensate!" Yi Yusong gritted his teeth. "I will definitely compensate you in full!"
"That's good." Zhang Erhe said with a smile, "But please remember this, King of Baiyue. This is a treasure of our Great Qin. If anything goes wrong..."
Yi Yusong suppressed his anger and watched the group of idiots leave. After they were gone, he immediately summoned several ministers: "Investigate! Find out exactly what these people came here for!"

Outside the hall, Zhang Erhe led his group of clowns toward the guesthouse.
"Grand Commandant, that was a brilliant move!" Chu Ping couldn't help but exclaim. "You should have seen Yi Yusong's expression; he was practically bursting with rage!"
"Exactly!" Wang Pen chimed in, "We've only been here for the first day, and we've already turned their lives upside down. Just wait a couple more days..."
"Alright!" Zhang Erhe snapped, "Take it easy, all of you. This is nothing! You'll have plenty of opportunities to cause trouble later!"
