This drinking contest ended with Li Changsheng passing drunk in the snow.

[System: Defeat the world's best master in a drinking contest, and get an extra 5000 reputation! ]

What surprised Wen Yanzhao was that the system actually gave him 5000 reputation points!

Adding the fame he received as a reward from Jian Zhan Wu Zuo Shuang Zun in the previous martial arts test at the academy, and the fame he gained from breaking through to the Half-Step Divine Wandering stage, Wen Yanzhao now has a huge sum of money saved.

"Next time I go to the system to buy poison, I will just buy two, eat one and throw away the other. I am so arrogant!"

Wen Yanzhao was secretly pleased, his mouth grinning all the way to his ears...

"Cousin, what are you laughing at?" Baili Dongjun helped Lei Mengsha to lift Li Changsheng up. As soon as he looked up, he saw Wen Yanzhao standing next to him with a smug look on his face.

"Nothing... I thought of something happy!" Wen Yanzhao said, putting away his smile.

Lei Mengsha supported the drunk Li Changsheng and complained with a bitter face:

"Why are you competing with Mr. Li in drinking?"

"Now he's drunk and wants us to wipe his butt!"

"Xiao Wen, stop showing off and come over here to help..."

Wen Yanzhao had no choice but to reach out and take Li Changsheng's other arm, and followed everyone back to Jixia Academy.

……

Tianqi City, Zichen Palace.

The snow in Beili fell especially early this year.

Just after the White Dew solar term, the first snow covered Tianqi into a white and white capital.

In the Purple Palace, the eunuch on duty had already lit silver charcoal, and when the charcoal fire was red, he covered it with a copper grate.

The hall felt a little warmer. Zhuoqing waved his hand, and the eunuchs who were tending the charcoal fire retreated in small steps.

The Purple Palace was usually where the emperor rested and maintained his health, and Xiao Chongjing rarely stayed here at night.

Emperor Tai'an Xiao Chongjing's face had been gloomy ever since Zhuoqing and Prince Qing returned home in disgrace yesterday. Zhuoqing had been serving by his side since the morning court session and hadn't heard Xiao Chongjing say a word.

Looking at the fluttering goose feather snow in the night sky outside the palace, Xiao Chongjing finally said softly:

"It's a nice snow, but it's not the right time. I'm afraid the last crop of rice in the three counties of Beili, Dongnan and Nanshan will be frozen in the ground."

Zhuo Qing greeted from behind:

"Your Majesty's virtue moves heaven and earth! Although the snow looks heavy, it will dissipate by sunrise tomorrow. I believe it will not affect the harvest in the three southeastern counties."

Xiao Chongjing didn't say anything, which made Zhuoqing feel a little embarrassed.

After a while, Xiao Chongjing turned around and asked without emotion:

"I haven't seen the Imperial Master for several days. He should still be awake, right?"

Zhuoqing leaned forward and replied:

"It is not yet the hour of Xu, so the Imperial Master must not have rested yet. Your Majesty, are you ready to leave for the Imperial Observatory?"

Xiao Chongjing glanced at Zhuoqing, thought for a moment and said in a cold voice:

"Even you couldn't withstand a single move from Li Changsheng. Even with the help of the Imperial Master, I'm afraid there's no chance of victory."

"Humph! I, the Emperor of Beili, am so powerless in front of Li Changsheng. I really don't know who is the emperor!"

When Zhuoqing heard this, he bowed humbly and said:

"I am incompetent, please punish me, Your Majesty!"

Xiao Chongjing shook his head, with a bit of helplessness in his tone:

"What crime have you committed? Fortunately, Li Changsheng hasn't done anything too rebellious yet. Ye Dingzhi sent the Shadow Sect to keep an eye on him!"

"As for Li Changsheng...let's put him aside for now. Even tigers take naps sometimes!"

Zhuoqing understood and stood up from the ground, speaking in a low voice:

"Your Majesty means... we can use..."

A hint of viciousness flashed across Xiao Chongjing's eyes:

"A man of small mind is not a gentleman, and a man without poison is not a man... The Wen family and the Tang clan are the most skilled families in the world in the use of poison."

"Didn't the young man from the Wen family, Wen Yanzhao, who Zhuo Sen went to reward last time, kill the demon leader Wu Tian of the Tianwai Tianmo Sect with a deadly poison?"

"No matter how strong Li Changsheng's martial arts are, he is just a mortal with a high level of cultivation. He is not a true immortal yet, and he still needs to eat and drink..."

Zhuoqing had been with Emperor Tai'an since childhood, and he knew what he meant when he heard his first words:

"I understand. The child from the Wen family used a poison skill. It is said that he relied on this poison skill to reach the level of half-step spiritual travel a few days ago!"

"We can also add an imperial edict to make the Lingnan Wen family an earl. I don't believe that Wen Yanzhao cannot be used by us!"

Xiao Chongjing had a complicated expression, and did not directly respond to Zhuoqing's words:

"Zhuoqing, is this a bit unscrupulous?"

Zhuoqing smiled and said:

"Disobeying the imperial court and offending the royal family is a capital crime without pardon!"

"Your Majesty, please give your orders. I will take care of the rest!"

A slight smile appeared on Xiao Chongjing's lips:

"Okay! Then let's do as you say. Let me think about it... At the end of this month, send someone to Lingnan."

"As the saying goes, no merit, no reward. The imperial edict states that the Wen family has made contributions to the peace and stability of the people for generations. To commend their family for their loyalty to the Beili court, we will confer him the title of Lingnan Earl!"

Zhuoqing bowed and said:

"The old slave leads the order!"
