Chapter 263: Crown Prince vs. King of Qi
You just wanted to deal with my wife, and now you want to use me for free?
No way!
Can't help at all.
Li Chengxiu turned around and wanted to leave, but his brother's cold voice sounded from behind.
"I suddenly remembered that Jiang Wan..."
"Shut up!"
Li Laosi didn't want to hear his wife's name from Li Laosan anymore. Turning around, he asked with gritted teeth.
"Brother, I heard a poem a while ago that I thought was quite interesting. I wonder if you've heard it?"
"Oh? With a brain that can barely recognize all the words, you can actually remember poetry? That's really not easy. Tell me about it."
The prince picked up the teacup beside him and took a sip nonchalantly, then heard his brother start talking nonsense.
"When you boil beans, burn the bean stalks; the beans are crying out in the pot.
We have the same father, why do you want to kill me?"
“Poof! Cough cough cough… cough cough…”
A mouthful of good tea sprayed all over the ground. The prince's handsome face turned red from choking, and then he looked up and glared at him angrily.
"Is this what you heard? Is this what your cunning wife said? Did she ask you to bring it to me?"
"Don't bring my wife into this. I just want to tell you this myself! If you dare to make a move, I won't live anymore. I'll hang myself at the gate of your Chengqian Palace in the middle of the night!
As long as you don't mind being embarrassed, just see how history books write about it in the future?
You, a prince, forced your own brother to death because you were jealous that I had a wife who loved me..."
"Shut up!"
This time it was the prince who was trembling with anger.
"I can see that too. You deserve to be stepped on by someone! You're looking forward to it every day, right?"
"Yeah, I'm very beautiful!"
“………”
If I could beat this bastard, I really want to punch this idiot in the head!
Don't be angry, don't be angry. If I get mad at this bastard right now, where can I go to seek justice? The prince sat on the chair and repeatedly tried to calm himself down, and in his heart he kept comforting himself, so that he could slowly let out the anger in his chest.
"Stop talking nonsense and sit down to work!"
“I won’t do it!
Since I was a child, you have always liked to order me around. Not only did you push all the dirty and tiring work you didn't want to do onto me, but now you are even pushing the job of reviewing memorials onto me?
Is this something I can do?”
Li Chengxiu was a little exasperated.
"You know perfectly well that I'm not well-educated. Ever since I was little, seeing words has always made me sleepy. And now you've come up with this dirty trick to use against me. You're a piece of shit, Li Laosan!"
"Are you looking for a fight?"
The prince finally succeeded in breaking through the defense.
"Do you think I want to pull you out? If it weren't for my eldest brother who was absolutely unwilling to come to the capital to help me, would I be able to pull you out?"
“Oh, you deserve it!
You've turned into a pervert now. Not only do I not dare to come, but if I had known you would become like this, I wouldn't have come either!
Who knows, one day you might lose your mind and chop all of us brothers to pieces?"
Not only did he finish his fight in front of me, but he also had the good sense to give some suggestions.
"Why don't you bring Li Laoer back? Laowu is still young, so don't harm him. It just so happens that you and Li Laoer are equally as bad as each other now. I think it would be a good idea for you two to get together!"
"Li Chengxiu!"
The prince finally changed his expression.
"Don't push me."
"Oh, it's you who should stop forcing me! If you bully me again, let's go to my parents and seek justice! I don't believe they can help you deal with me."
Li Laosi has loved to complain since he was a child. Li Laosan has seen this attitude of always asking adults for justice since he was a child.
He was angry when he was young, and helpless when he grew up, but now looking at his brother's still arrogant and confident face, he only felt heartache and guilt.
Because of him, his brother's confidence was destroyed.
All the prince's temper was drained away in an instant. His tone suddenly became more exhausted, even tinged with pleading.
"Fourth Brother, I'm really too tired to hold on any longer. Can you please help me out for the sake of our brotherhood that we've had since we were little?
I won't say anything more about how you and Wan Jie'er are doing from now on. Maybe you're right. Living with someone you love is like drinking water, knowing whether it's hot or cold. I shouldn't have overstepped my bounds and made decisions for you.
Fourth Brother, I apologize to you."
The anger on Li Chengxiu's face was slowly wiped away by his brother's submissiveness. As the saying goes, after all, they were brothers who had loved each other for nearly twenty years, and no matter how harsh their words were, they were still just words.
"You have to remember what you said today. Don't ever say that my wife is not good in this or that way again. I tell you, my wife is good in every way.
It was unfair for her to be married to me in this life, so from the day she married me, I swore that I would never let her suffer any injustice again in this life!
If you can tolerate her, I will be your brother forever. I will fight wherever you point my finger at me. I will even go through fire and water for you! If you can't tolerate her, I will take her and stay in Dongling Mansion, hiding from you as far away as possible. But, I can only let her go so far!"
"Okay, I understand. I won't interfere in your affairs anymore, don't worry."
It was hard to tell whether the prince's expression was one of dejection or embarrassment, but it was so complicated that it was difficult to understand.
Li Chengxiu looked at his brother's exhausted eyes. It would be a lie to say he didn't feel any pain at all, but...
He looked at the pile of memorials with embarrassment, his brow furrowed so tightly that it could have pinched a fly to death. Reluctantly, he shuffled to the designated seat and sat down, then raised his hand to take down the pile and flipped through them one by one.
He looked up and down and back and forth several times, then raised his head to look at his brother with a bitter face and admitted defeat.
"Don't overestimate me. What on earth is written on these memorials? I really don't understand them!"
"You don't recognize the words on it?"
"I can recognize the individual characters, but I can't understand what they mean when put together."
"What's not clear?"
"I don't understand anything."
Li Chengxiu is a very honest child who says whatever he thinks, but he made his brother so angry that veins popped out of his head.
"You're such an unlearned bastard! I told you to read more books when you were little, but you just kept messing around with cats and dogs. Now you can't even understand a memorial? You've completely disgraced me, the prince of the Li family!"
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince slammed the table and cursed, and His Royal Highness the Prince of Qi slammed back at him.
"You keep scolding me? I won't stand it if you keep scolding me!
Whose job is this? Do you have any idea? I'm helping you for nothing, and I've even taught you a great lesson!
I'm just a warrior who's fought on the battlefield. I can understand military orders. Why would I need so much knowledge? "
“………”
