From Joy of Life, the Tian Gang is reversed

Chapter 134: They are just a bunch of cattle and horses, why add drama to yourself!
"There's no way I can survive this day!"

In the Eastern Palace, Li Chengqian sent the queen away with a smile on his face, then slumped in a wheelchair, staring at the sky with a look of despair.

Ever since the Grandmaster's strength was exposed, starting from that night, the Queen has been having sex eight times a day!
At first, she was still trying to hide it, chatting with herself about family matters, reminiscing about the past, and recalling her former family. She couldn't help but feel sad, and tears kept falling. Slowly, she began to secretly curse Emperor Qing for being heartless, cruel, and a good-for-nothing. In the end, she was just about to tear off her yellow robe, hold Li Chengqian's hand, and encourage him to take down Chengtian Palace.

Not just the Queen.

In the past few days, news has been reaching the East Palace through various channels, and the gifts have piled up into a mountain.

If the East Palace was not located within the Imperial Palace, his entrance would probably be blocked by people just like the Prince Zhao's Palace that day.

"By the way, how is my second brother now?"

Suddenly, Li Chengqian asked.

"Prince Zhao dismissed most of his retainers two days ago, leaving only eight generals and a small number of staff. He then went to Baoyue Tower and had fun with Prince Jing's son, Li Hongcheng, for two full days. He hasn't returned to the palace yet."

Li Mingchuan answered respectfully from the side, his back straight, and there was a hint of gloating in his tone.

"Baoyue Tower?" Li Chengqian uttered a huh, sitting up. "What does he want to do? He's the dignified Prince of Zhao, a high-ranking official in the Council of State Affairs, and he's gone to a brothel to get drunk for two days. Is he going to quit his job?"

"what?!"

Li Mingchuan failed to follow Li Chengqian's train of thought for a moment and looked at Li Chengqian in confusion.

Isn’t it a good thing that King Zhao is decadent?
Why does the prince still look unhappy?

"Let's go to Baoyue Tower." Li Chengqian didn't care what he thought. He stood up from the wheelchair with the anger of a capitalist.

Damn it, Lao Deng has trained you for so long, and now you can finally do some work, but you dare to give up. What about the cost Lao Deng spent on training you?
————I am the dividing line————

Kyoto West City
Baoyue Tower

This is a three-story wooden building.

Located in a secluded place in western Beijing.

Why would a brothel be opened in a secluded place? Aren’t they afraid of having no customers?

How should I put it? Originally, the Baoyue Building was built for its prestige and only accepted high-end clients. Those who came here were regular customers. You can think of it as a club with special reception tasks.

With the establishment of the Daoshensi, Liujing River gradually declined. The number of visitors to brothels in prosperous areas dropped sharply. On the contrary, the business of brothels in secluded places, which were like clubs, inexplicably became better.

Just like the Wuchan Temple and the Baoyue Tower that were raided last time.

She became the top prostitute in the brothel in western Beijing.

However, this top brothel in western Beijing has been closed for two days.

Even regular customers are not allowed to enter because the master behind Baoyue Tower has booked the entire place.

Bah! !

On the third floor of Baoyue Tower, the sound of a wine jar breaking was heard again. The girls singing and dancing in the building were already used to it and seemed to have no reaction, but in fact they were all terrified.

Prince Zhao is crazy!

I've been coming here to drink since early yesterday morning. I've been drinking for two days now, and I still won't leave.

Crown Prince Li Hongcheng actually said that he would stay here and kept drinking with the King of Zhao, cursing as he drank.

Who are you scolding?

Of course, he was calling the prince a piece of shit.

Calling the prince a bastard and a scoundrel.

Scold the Crown Prince for treating the officials in the court and the people of the world like fools. Scold... Scold myself for being useless!
He used all means, both openly and secretly, and thought he had a good plan, but he was fooled by the prince like a clown.

Bah! !

There was another crisp sound, and this time it was Li Hongcheng who smashed the wine jar.

At this moment, his hair was disheveled and his eyes were hazy with drunkenness. He looked viciously at the dancing girls in the courtyard. He suddenly stood up and pointed at them and cursed, "Get out, all of you, get out, get out, get out...!"

The sound was shrill, like the howling of an owl at night.

Li Chengze, who was lying on the couch, had a dim look in his eyes. He didn't say anything else, but picked up the wine pot beside him. Just as he was about to pour the wine into his throat, he was stopped by a hand.

The hand took the wine pot and placed it on the table, then sat down at the table, glanced at him and Li Hongcheng, raised his head and said to Xie Bian who was standing by the door, "Go, ask them to serve a table of food and a pot of tea, there is no need to serve wine."

Xie Bian's face was stiff. He nodded and said yes, then turned and left the private room.

"Oh, Prince!" Li Chengze grinned when he saw who was coming. He supported himself on the armrest of the couch and sat up with all his strength. "Why, Prince, are you here to laugh at my joke?"

"Don't get drunk, don't make a scene, don't talk nonsense, or I'll break all five of your limbs and make you poop and pee in bed for the rest of your life, unable even to commit suicide." Li Chengqian picked up his chopsticks and rummaged through the dishes on the table. He put them down and glanced at Li Hongcheng. "You too."

"you……!"

Li Hongcheng was about to say something under the influence of alcohol, but Li Chengqian's gaze shocked him so much that he could only open his mouth with a dull face and could not utter a word.

At this time, Li Mingcheng had already called the waiters from Baoyue Tower to come in, clean the private room and tidy up the table. In just a few moments, the private room that was filled with the smell of alcohol was cleaned up. In the room, except for the two frustrated people who were drunk, there was no one else who was uncomfortable.

After a while, a new table of food was served. Li Chengqian asked Li Mingchuan to sit down and started eating.

"You are now the Prince of Zhao, a minister in the Council of State. The court pays you double your salary every month, plus various other rewards. This is a considerable expense. If it were placed on an ordinary family, it would be enough for them to live happily for more than ten years. You are paid a salary so that you can work, not come to a brothel and get drunk."

"Haha." Li Chengze wiped the wine stains from the corners of his mouth and laughed at himself, "Yes, you are the prince, you are the grandmaster, you are powerful, whatever you say is fine."

"Yes, anything I say is fine." Li Chengqian said, "Not only can I say anything, I can do anything. Are you dissatisfied?"

"I obey! How dare I not obey!"

"That's good. Go back to work. You're in charge of the Ministry of Works. Big Brother wants to make a big splash in the Northwest, and many things require the Ministry's support. How can you, a minister in charge of the Ministry of Works, be hiding here?" Li Chengqian said. "Also, those people under you have been acting like they've lost their minds these past few days. They've messed up everything at court. I've lost my temper several times. If this continues, I'll definitely punish them. They're all your trusted men. Don't let them lose their spirits."

"People's hearts are scattered, shouldn't you be happy?!"

"I'm happy?" Li Chengqian looked at Li Chengze while holding his chopsticks and said, "Second brother, you're so smart, how come you still don't understand?"

"Whether you support me or oppose me, whether you admire me or hate me, it's all the same in my eyes."

"As long as they're obedient and can help me with my work, their opinions and ideas are unimportant. I'll use those who can do the work, and get rid of those who can't. It's a good thing for me if they're united and can do the work efficiently. If they're divided and can't do the work well, then wouldn't that just cause me trouble in the end?"

"They are just a bunch of cattle and horses, why add drama to yourself?"

After saying that, he threw down his chopsticks, looked at Li Hongcheng and complained, "Where did you hire this chef from? The food is terrible."

"Uh--" Li Hongcheng felt a chill in his heart when he saw his gaze. He lowered his head and couldn't utter a word.

"And you, the prince of Jing, a royal noble, actually opened a brothel and engaged in the flesh trade. Are you crazy?" Li Chengqian stood up and said to the two of them, "Let's go, you should leave quickly too. If you don't leave now, the fire will spread."

"what?!"

Although the two men were still drunk, they were completely sobered up by Li Chengqian's words. They then discovered that the women in the courtyard had disappeared, flames were rising from all directions, and smoke had already penetrated into the box through the window.

"You see, a Grandmaster can do whatever he wants!"

Li Chengqian put his hands behind his back and walked out of the box with Li Mingchuan. "This rotten place, burn it down."
