A moment later.
Prince Ning led a group of guards out of the palace.
Upon seeing Li Huan, Prince Ning looked behind him and was utterly shocked.
"You really did break into the Prince's mansion all by yourself!"
Li Huan said proudly, "I am more than enough to deal with a treacherous and cunning person like you!"
Prince Ning asked, "What benefits did you receive from Grand Tutor Hua that made you willing to risk your life for him?"
Li Huan said, "I came to find you, it has nothing to do with Grand Tutor Hua, I just want to take back what is rightfully mine!"
"What is it?" Prince Ning asked.
Li Huan shouted angrily, "Stop pretending to be stupid! You son of a bitch, after losing the cooking competition, not only did you go back on your word and refuse to pay, but you also tried to go on a killing spree and wipe out the Grand Tutor's mansion. You are utterly depraved!"
Prince Ning glanced at the soldiers groaning on the ground and felt a surge of fear, forcing a smile through his teeth.
"Li Huan, you want money? I can give it to you, as long as you promise to serve me!"
"Fuck your mother's egg!" Li Huan raised his hand and slapped Prince Ning across the face from a distance!
*Snap!* Extremely loud!
Prince Ning stumbled and nearly fell, instinctively covering his stinging face.
*Pfft...* Prince Ning spat out a mouthful of blood, mixed with his broken teeth.
Bang!
Li Huan threw another punch from a distance, hitting Prince Ning in the stomach and sending him flying, crashing hard into the stone lion at the entrance!
"Agh..." Prince Ning cried out in pain, his internal organs feeling as if they were being churned up.
Li Huan pulled out the betting agreement for the "cooking competition" from his pocket and looked directly into Prince Ning's eyes.
"This is the last time I'm asking you, does this agreement count?"
Prince Ning clutched his stomach, his face contorted in pain: "Count it, count it..."
Li Huan said, "Since it's a deal, when will you pay this one million taels of silver?"
Prince Ning trembled all over: "I'll prepare the silver notes immediately... Someone... fetch one million taels of silver notes..."
The fat clerk, who had been hiding inside the door, hurried to the accounting office...
Soon, the fat clerk ran out of the palace gate with a thick stack of silver notes, and handed them to Li Huan with a smile.
"This is a one million tael silver note, please take a look... please take a look..."
Li Huan quickly counted the banknotes to prevent the other party from cheating him.
bite!
The "God-level Lunch Box System" emitted a crisp notification sound.
[Congratulations, Master! You have completed the second mission of traveling through the world of "Flirting Scholar"!]
[Reminder, Master! The first task is not yet complete. Please keep trying!]
Li Huanxin said that the first task was completed, and three days later, he would receive three paintings and calligraphies by Tang Bohu.
Li Huan accepted the silver note, then suddenly swung his palm and struck Prince Ning again!
Bang!
Prince Ning flew more than three zhang high before crashing down heavily, his lower back hitting the stone lion's head!
Click!
Li Huan heard the sound of his lumbar spine breaking.
Prince Ning landed and howled in agony, like a stray dog.
Li Huan said, "You, as a prince, are arrogant, domineering, and violent, and you even dared to try to become emperor! Today, I'll beat you into a cripple, so you'll only be able to lie in bed and eke out a living from now on!"
Prince Ning coughed up blood, his eyes rolled back, and he fainted.
Li Huan beckoned to the fat clerk: "Come here!"
The fat clerk was so frightened that he dared not approach Li Huan.
"I called you over here!" Li Huan raised his voice.
“Yes! Yes…” The fat clerk walked up to Li Huan with a hunched back.
Li Huan said, "According to the agreement of the cooking competition, after I receive one million taels of silver, I must provide ten thousand boxed meals to Prince Ning to distribute to the people of Suzhou!"
The fat clerk nodded in alarm: "That's right, that's right, Your Highness will definitely keep the agreement and distribute the boxed meals to the people in the city."
Li Huan said, "The boxed meals are ready. You are in charge of collecting them and distributing them before dark!"
The portly clerk said, "Yes, sir! May I ask where the boxed lunches are?"
Li Huan turned around and pointed to the back of the red electric tricycle: "Look!"
There was a pile of boxed lunches, neatly stacked.
The fat clerk quickly ordered, "Men, move these 10,000 boxed meals to the streets and distribute them to the people in the city. One meal per person, no more!"
Then, the fat advisor sent someone to summon the imperial physician to treat the unconscious Prince Ning.
Li Huan threatened, "Tell Prince Ning that from now on, if anyone dares to oppose Grand Tutor Hua or secretly plot against him, I will raze Prince Ning's mansion to the ground!"
The portly clerk nodded and bowed, "Yes! I will certainly convey this to Your Highness!"
Li Huan walked toward the electric tricycle, then suddenly stopped, turned around and said, "You brat, you're not allowed to compete with anyone in couplets again, or I'll make sure you're paralyzed too!"
The fat clerk hurriedly said, "I will remember this well, and I will never compose a couplet again! I will never call it 'a perfect couplet'!"
Li Huan boarded the electric tricycle and sped away...
...
Three days later.
Tang Bohu arrived at the Hua Mansion as promised.
He not only carried three paintings and calligraphies, but also brought the Tang family's Overlord Spear!
For the past three days, Li Huan stayed at the Grand Tutor's mansion, indulging in food, drink, and entertainment, and teaching Chunxiang, Xiaxiang, and Dongxiang how to cook.
Upon seeing Tang Bohu's arrival, Qiu Xiang hurriedly went to the hall.
"My lord, you've finally changed your mind!" Qiu Xiang smiled brightly.
Tang Bohu said, "Don't misunderstand, I've come to deliver calligraphy and paintings to Li Huan, and also to duel with the Deadly Scholar to avenge my father!"
Upon hearing this, Qiu Xiang's face showed disappointment.
Grand Tutor Hua, Madam Hua, Hua Wen, Hua Wu, and others also arrived at the hall.
"Tang Bohu, Qiu Xiang is willing to give up playing rock-paper-scissors and mahjong for you, why don't you accept her?"
Madam Hua's tone was full of complaints, indicating her displeasure with Tang Bohu.
Tang Bohu said, "To love someone can be unforgettable, and to hate someone can also be unforgettable!"
Qiu Xiang retorted angrily, "Tang Bohu, what do you mean? I was just playing rock-paper-scissors and mahjong, why do you hate me so much!"
Tang Bohu quickly said, "I'm sorry, I didn't express myself accurately. What I meant was that I have an extreme aversion to playing rock-paper-scissors and mahjong!"
Li Huan laughed loudly: "Hahaha... Tang Bohu, you've been at home for three days and your mood still hasn't turned around. I bet your eight wives are drinking and playing cards all day long, which is affecting your painting!"
Tang Bohu frowned deeply: "Yes, not only do they drink and gamble, but they also took some books from the study and used them as mats under the table legs to play mahjong. Sigh...sigh..."
Li Huan said, "Look, Tang Bohu's mental illness is hard to cure. In my opinion, he won't be able to get rid of his psychological shadow until he divorces eight wives!"
Tang Bohu shook his head: "I've wanted to divorce all eight of my wives for a long time, but they all cried, made a scene, and even threatened to hang themselves. My mother even hanged herself after them. How could I dare to divorce them? Alas..."
Li Huan said, "Qiu Xiang, please understand Tang Bohu and give him some more time..."
"No need!" Qiu Xiang interrupted Li Huan directly, "Since Young Master Tang dislikes me so much, our fate is sealed, and we are no longer husband and wife!"
Tang Bohu paused, seemingly a little reluctant.
Li Huan patted Tang Bohu on the shoulder: "What's wrong? Qiu Xiang took the initiative to break up with you, and you're still not willing to accept it?"
Before Tang Bohu could answer, Madam Hua laughed and said, "Since Qiu Xiang and Tang Bohu are not destined to be together, I have decided to marry Qiu Xiang to Hua Wen and Hua Wu!"
