"You..." Shang Huai kicked the table in front of him over.
Pei Minxue was so frightened that he took a few steps back.
The heavy table fell to the ground with a loud thud.
You can also tell how powerful Shang Huai's kick was.
"Haven't you had enough yet?"
“Useless is useless.” Xiao Chengci said sarcastically, “You’re useless, but does that mean I can’t even say so?”
"If you were even slightly useful and satisfied Zhizhi, would she go looking for other men outside?"
Upon hearing this, Pei Minxue immediately stood up and stood between Xiao Chengci and Shang Huai.
Pei Minxue was just worried that if he didn't stop him, Shang Huai might actually commit regicide.
"Alright, alright," Pei Minxue smoothed things over. "Your Majesty, please say no more."
"According to Zhizhi, they didn't do anything last night."
"So, this can't be blamed on Shang Huai."
Shang Huai pursed his lips, angrily turned his head away, but did not refute Pei Minxue's words.
Xiao Chengci suddenly stood up. "Are you telling the truth?"
Pei Minxue: "How could I be so bold as to lie to you?"
Xiao Chengci suddenly laughed out loud, and his heart, which had been filled with jealousy and bitterness, instantly felt much better.
It turns out they just lay together; nothing actually happened.
For a moment, Shang Huai was completely unaware.
He got a little angry when I said he was useless.
Or perhaps he was even angrier when he and Pei Zhi were lying in the same bed without doing anything.
In any of these two situations, Shang Huai would lose face.
After laughing heartily for a while, Xiao Chengci asked, "Why didn't you tell me this morning?"
"If you had told me, I wouldn't have hit you."
Shang Huai scoffed rudely, "You talk as if Your Majesty didn't get beaten up?"
Xiao Chengci felt as if the clouds had parted, and he was extremely happy.
"You're telling me," Xiao Chengci said, pointing at Shang Huai, "I gave you a chance, but you couldn't seize it."
"I was right when I said you were useless."
"Yes, how could I possibly be as capable as Your Majesty?"
"Your Majesty is so capable, why did Pei Zhi still choose to marry someone else back then?"
"It seems that His Majesty is nothing special after all."
Xiao Chengci's face was gloomy. "I have nothing to do with her."
Shang Huai said calmly, "Anyway, Zhizhi has already lost her memory."
"No matter the reason, now it's all up to His Majesty to decide."
Pei Minxue really couldn't take it anymore. He slapped the chair next to him and said, "Are you guys ever going to stop?"
“I ran back to warn you, not so you could make a scene.”
"Zhizhi has already taken my jade pendant to pawn it."
"Although I had someone give me advance notice and ask the pawnshop owner to delay for a moment."
"But if you keep arguing like this, Pei Zhi will probably have already redeemed those two male prostitutes."
Pei Minxue really couldn't stand it anymore. What time is it? Why are they still arguing here?
"Are you really going to watch Zhizhi keep a mistress?"
Xiao Chengci chuckled lightly, "She wants to raise me? Does she really think I'm dead?"
Shang Huai patted his robes and said, "I'll go gather some men and take down this building."
Pei Minxue quickly stopped him, "Don't be so impulsive, it would be bad if you made Zhizhi angry."
Pei Minxue was worried that if Shang Huai made it too obvious, Pei Zhi would find out and be unhappy.
"Brother Minxue, don't worry."
“I’ll bring the government officials with me and let them find a few faults to seal off this building for ten days or half a month.”
"As for the male prostitutes in the building, just say they are involved in a murder case, take them all away, interrogate them for a few days, and then release them."
Pei Minxue did not think this was a good idea.
"What if Zhizhi keeps coming back to them after they're released?"
Shang Huai said confidently, "Absolutely not."
Pei Minxue asked, puzzled, "Why?"
"Lock these male prostitutes in jail; they'll eat, drink, and relieve themselves there."
"While we were waiting for them to be released, we happened to be passing by with Zhizhi and bumped into them."
"Presumably, once Zhizhi sees these male prostitutes, all disheveled and smelly, she will no longer have any interest in them."
Who is Pei Minxue?
Even the current emperor is looked down upon by Pei Zhi.
Pei Zhi finally managed to convince herself to lower her expectations.
But we can't lower ourselves to the dust.
Pei Minxue waved his hand: "Okay, go ahead."
Shang Huai's arrangement was reasonable and well-founded, and Pei Minxue also thought the plan was feasible.
After Shang Huai left, Pei Minxue watched Shang Huai's retreating figure.
"Your Majesty, how come Shang Huai, who leads troops into battle, is so quick-witted?"
"What?" Xiao Chengci retorted, "Do you think Shang Huai is a brute?"
A true brute cannot possibly win every battle.
Warfare requires not only force, but also intelligence.
Often, we cannot attack blindly; we must also use strategy.
Pei Zhi signed countless receipts at the pawnshop.
I was pulled aside by my boss and we chatted for who knows how long.
Finally, I got the money from the boss.
Pei Zhi lightly counted the large stack of silver notes; there was no problem.
Pei Zhi got into the carriage, but her mind was already starting to plan where to place the two male prostitutes.
Let them live together first, so they can look after each other.
When she comes out to meet, she can see two people at once.
