"Huh! Lord Su really put a big hat on me!"

Leng Yikang glanced at Su Youheng. This man was becoming more and more outrageous.

"Master Leng never likes to meddle in other people's business, so why do you have time to come and watch the fun today?"

"I'm just an idle person, I have plenty of time!"

Leng Yikang replied unhappily.

"I think Lord Leng should go back to your Imperial Academy and study your sage books instead of messing around with others here."

Leng Yikang was instantly annoyed when he heard this.

"What do you mean? Do you think you are so powerful now that you are the prime minister? I tell you that I didn't care about it back then, otherwise you..."

Before Leng Yikang could finish his words, Xiao Huaimin covered his mouth tightly.

"You can't say that. He's a high-ranking official. Please give way to him. Please give way to him..."

Luo Shengtai: It’s really disgusting.

Jiang Tunan's emotions had calmed down at this time. In fact, she could have taken the one hundred taels and left at the beginning, but at that time, Liangchuan Taki spoke with a colonel accent, and his expression asked for a beating, which made Jiang Tunan's blood awaken all of a sudden.

A white handkerchief was handed to him, revealing a slender, clean hand with distinct joints, and veins slightly protruding under the white skin on the back of the hand.

It’s Xiao Mingrui.

Jiang Tunan was a little touched. Although in his impression Xiao Mingrui always had a cold face, he was still very reliable at critical moments.

You should be more polite to him in the future. After all, he is your cousin in name only.

"Your snot is running into your mouth."

Jiang Tunan:?

She actually just felt that she still had to maintain an appropriate social distance in the future.

Jiang Tunan quickly took the handkerchief and wiped his face. After adjusting his mentality, Jiang Tunan felt full of strength again and could even perform a set of military boxing on the street.

"Aren't you sad anymore?"

Xiao Mingrui stood beside Jiang Tunan, holding Jiang Tunan's wrist with his hand still not loosening. He turned his head slightly, his face still with that indifferent expression.

Xiao Mingrui was a head taller than Jiang Tunan. Because they were close to each other, Jiang Tunan had to look up to talk to Xiao Mingrui.

"Well! Cousin Mingrui, I have grown up. I am no longer the same person I was just now. My heart is now colder than the knife that has been used to kill fish in the market for ten years. Nothing can make me change my mood in the slightest."

Xiao Mingrui did not say anything else, but there was a hint of smile in the corner of his eyes.

At this time, Xiao Mingli was still staring blankly in the direction of Su Xiaoxiao. Jiang Tunan also noticed Xiao Mingli's look, thinking that it was worthy of the unique attraction between the male and female protagonists. Although they didn't know each other, they were deeply attracted to each other after just meeting once.

"Cousin Mingrui, how long has Cousin Mingli been experiencing these symptoms?"

Xiao Mingrui looked towards Xiao Mingli and found that his brother was standing there like a zombie. Thinking of the abnormality in his body just now, he hurriedly called out to Xiao Mingli.

Xiao Mingli slowly turned his head and glanced at Xiao Mingrui, then continued to stare blankly ahead.

"Cousin Mingli?"

Jiang Tunan called out, and Xiao Mingli came back to his senses from his trance.

"Ok?"

Xiao Mingli's mind was a little confused, but he vaguely remembered someone calling him.

"Sorry, I was distracted just now."

Jiang Tunan nodded perfunctorily, but Xiao Mingrui was cautious in his heart.

Jiang Tunan and the others seemed to be living a peaceful life here, but Xiao Huaimin and Su Youheng were arguing fiercely.

Xiao Huaimin swallowed silently, and Su Youheng also relaxed. They both thought to themselves that they had never known this guy was so eloquent.

Xiao Huaimin & Su Youheng: It’s been a long time since I’ve seen such evenly matched opponents.

Leng Yikang & Luo Shengtai: Can’t get a word in at all.

"Alright! One is the prime minister, and the other is the minister of rites. How can they quarrel in the street?"

It was only after Luo Shengtai’s angry rebuke that the two men temporarily stopped fighting.

"The crime of sowing discord between the two countries is no small matter. In this case, why not go to the palace now and ask His Majesty to make the final decision?"

Everyone:? ? ?

Jiang Tunan simply couldn't believe that such a small matter had to be brought to the emperor. Su Youheng was even more speechless, having forgotten that this madman was still there. He just wanted to scare Jiang Tunan and destroy Xiao Huaimin's prestige. There was really no need to make a fuss in front of the emperor.

"Old man, are you crazy?"

Leng Yikang said in disbelief, could it be that Luo Shengtai has finally been driven crazy?

"I have made up my mind. It is no use for you to continue arguing here. It is better to ask His Majesty to make the decision. I will go to the palace to make a complaint now."

Leng Yikang grabbed Luo Shengtai and said with disgust,

"Come on, you make eight hundred remonstrances a day. Just let the emperor take a break. The emperor spends less time with the concubines in the harem than with you throughout the year."

Luo Shengtai's face flushed red.

"I'm doing this all for Daxing, okay, don't stop me."

Luo Shengtai shook off Leng Yikang and left quickly. Leng Yikang looked at Luo Shengtai's departing back and said to Xiao Huaimin and Su Youheng urgently,

"No, you guys won't stop it?"

Xiao Huaimin said helplessly,

"Don't you understand his character? He can't be stopped."

Xiao Huaimin turned to Su Youheng and said,

"Mr. Prime Minister, let's prepare to go to the palace to meet the emperor."

In the Changle Palace, Emperor Baili Quan was having dinner with Concubine Li, but suddenly someone came to report that Luo Shengtai wanted to see him.

Baili Quan put down his chopsticks speechlessly.

"Who does he dislike now?"

The eunuch who reported the incident knelt on the ground and trembled slightly. He replied cautiously,

"It is said that the Minister of Rites, Lord Xiao, and the Prime Minister had an argument in the street."

"Oh?"

Baili Quan became interested. Xiao Huaimin had been working diligently over the years. Although he was a little old-fashioned, he was easy to talk to. How could he quarrel with Su Youheng today, and on the street?

"Go to the Imperial Study Room."

Baili Quan stood up and left, but Concubine Li refused.

"Your Majesty~ It's not easy for you to come and see me~"

Baili Quan let go of Concubine Li's hand and tried to comfort her.

"Please be patient and wait for me to go and see the excitement first. No, wait for me to deal with the government affairs first, and then come back to accompany you."

After Baili Quan left, Concubine Li's eyes turned dark.

"Go tell Jingchen what happened today and ask him to find out what happened."

"Yes."

A maidservant nearby received the order and quietly left Changle Palace. Concubine Li continued to eat as usual.

"Your Highness seems to be in a good mood today."

Hong Ling, the trusted maidservant of Concubine Li, handed her a handkerchief to wipe her mouth.

Concubine Li raised her lips, took the handkerchief and said,

"Of course, Xiao Huaimin and Su Youheng's quarrel has even reached the emperor. I hope they quarrel more fiercely. Maybe my son can have another capable assistant in the court."

Hong Ling bowed her head and said respectfully,

"That's what the Queen said."
