Chapter 12: Contempt
From the words of the few people just now, Li Xiaoyixi could judge that this young man had something to do with Liu Qingye.
Unexpectedly, it turned out to be Liu Qingye's younger brother Liu Wen.
"I prove that it was indeed they who provoked them first, and it was they who offered to beat them up."
Li Xiao testified for Liu Wen on the side.
"Yes, yes, sister, I have witnesses, and they asked me to do it."
Liu Wenyou seemed to have found a savior, and pulled Li Xiao to testify for himself, it seems that he is very afraid of his sister.
"I don't care how much you mess around at home on weekdays, this time I asked you to come to the capital to let you know more about the poetry club, but I didn't let you come out to make trouble."
"If it's like this next time, I'll definitely let Daddy do it to you."
Liu Qingye reprimanded Liu Wen with a straight face.
"I promise, sister, there will never be a next time."
Liu Wen hurriedly raised his hand, looking like he was voaking.
He didn't expect his sister to spare him so easily this time, and he was finally relieved.
In fact, what these people said just now, Liu Qingye heard it word for word on the stairs, and she was also very angry in her heart, but she didn't show it.
At this time, several people lying on the ground also relieved their strength, and struggled to stand up with each other.
"Do you dare to beat us, do you know who we are?"
"We are the disciples of the Four Princes, and hitting us is equivalent to slapping the Four Princes in the face."
Although they were beaten up a lot, those people were still screaming wildly, looking fearless.
Li Xiao, who had already stopped, heard the shouts of these people, and instantly became angry in his heart, and he didn't greet Wu Gang and a few other guards who had already followed, but rolled up his sleeves and started in person, and carried a few people to beat them firmly.
"Who is making trouble? Dare to make trouble in the territory of the capital, let's live impatiently. ”
Just when Li Xiao was fighting hard, the last few errand officers rushed up.
As soon as they saw that an errand was coming, those people began to cry out for help as if they had seen a savior.
"Liu Zhutou, it's me, it's me, save us!"
The head catcher who took the lead looked at the few people who were pressed to the ground and beaten by Li Xiao, and he was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat.
"Gongzi Jiang, Gongzi Qin, why are you?"
These are all the disciples of the four princes, but they are not something that he, a small head catcher, can afford to provoke.
"He, they beat us for no reason, arrest them quickly."
That Jiang Gongzi pointed at Li Xiao and the others and shouted loudly.
"Come on, quickly arrest these troublemakers and escort them back to the yamen for a good trial."
Hearing this Jiang Gongzi's complaint, the head catcher naturally didn't dare to slack off, and ordered his servants to arrest Li Xiao and others.
Wu Gang and the other guards naturally didn't want to watch Li Xiao being arrested by these errand soldiers, and each pulled out the matching knife on his waist and confronted those errand soldiers.
"Bold, do you know who this is? This is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince today, can you rebel? ”
Wu Gang shouted at the servants in front of him.
I thought that the name of the prince could scare these people, but I didn't expect these servants to be unmoved, just looking at the headcatcher waiting for orders, and the headcatcher was looking at the young sons.
Li Xiao didn't expect that his name as the crown prince would not be useful at all in this capital, and it would not be as effective as the name of the four princes.
"Who should I be, it turns out to be His Royal Highness the Prince!"
Those people stood up with the support of the servants, not only were they not frightened by the name of the prince, but their faces were full of disdain.
"It seems that the poetry meeting is approaching, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince can't hold it back, so he came to this Wenqu Temple to temporarily hug his thighs."
As he spoke, a few people laughed again, and accidentally touched the wound just now, and breathed in pain while laughing.
"What His Royal Highness the Prince, it should be His Royal Highness the Quasi-Abolition Prince."
"After the poetry meeting is over, this prince will become a deposed prince."
"Hmph, when our fourth highness ascends to the throne of the crown prince, then he will have good fruit to eat."
In the eyes of several people, it seems that Li Xiao's position as the crown prince is undoubtedly lost.
Also, I am afraid that almost everyone present except Wan'er thinks that Li Xiao has no possibility of winning above the poetry club, and even those head-catchers think so.
A person who is about to lose the crown prince is like a paper tiger, and his deterrent power is indeed not as good as a few disciples of the four princes.
It is rumored that after this poetry meeting, Li Xiao will be divorced by Han Shangshu's daughter, and the emperor will also abolish the crown prince.
Moreover, the call for the fourth prince to be made the crown prince is very high, and naturally everyone who has something to do with him is rising and angry.
"Throw it all out of this palace."
Li Xiao said coldly.
Hearing Li Xiao's order, those guards were also holding their breath, and naturally they were not soft, and immediately began to move.
Those errand catchers are no match for these guards at all, let alone those boys.
I saw that from the window on the second floor of the restaurant, one person after another was thrown down.
There was a scream of ouch and ouch in the street below.
Li Xiao's face was pale, it seemed that yesterday's operation in the Han Mansion still failed to deter these guys who looked down on people.
"Your Highness, I'll go down and help you beat them up again, so that they know how many eyes Lord Ma has."
Liu Wen rolled up his arms and sleeves, and was about to rush downstairs, it seemed that he still hadn't had a good time just now.
This guy looks like Sven from his name to his appearance, who expected him to be a militant.
"Liu Wen"
Liu Qingye, who was next to him, reprimanded, and because he was like a deflated ball in an instant, he obediently retreated to the side.
"Your Highness should go back to the palace first, if you make such a fuss, I'm afraid that the folk talents will be even more serious about Your Highness."
Liu Qingye persuaded Li Xiao on the side, when she left the palace today, she more or less heard that the folk talents were very dissatisfied with what the prince of the East Palace did, and even took advantage of the news that the poetry club jointly petitioned the emperor.
With Li Xiao's current situation, I am afraid that the poetry will be ugly and will be dismissed from the marriage and lose the position of prince, this is for sure.
can only find a way to try to make Li Xiao not too ugly, leave some leeway, so as not to make the emperor too disappointed in him.
Liu Qingye planned to make a few poems in advance and let Li Xiao memorize them, so that they could be picked up and used at the poetry meeting.
On the way back to the palace, Liu Qingye took out a few pieces of paper from her arms, which were all poems she had made in the past two days.
"Your Highness, you have to memorize these poems tomorrow no matter what, and you can use them at the poetry meeting when the time comes."
Looking at the paper handed over by Liu Qingye, Li Xiao felt a trace of warmth in his heart, and there were still people around him who cared about him.
