Happy Little Scholar

The hall continued to be quiet.

The monk looked up at Li Yi, sighed, and slowly lowered his head.

Some timid women had already turned pale with fright at the scene just now. The glass statue was more than a foot high, and it was hit so hard. If it had landed on the monk's head, there would probably be blood splattered today. Chongyuan Hall!

Then they thought of something. The monk just said that he didn't know martial arts, but he didn't know martial arts. How could he smash the glazed statue with his sleeves?

The scene just now surprised them even more than the eldest princess Xiaolu's hand.

But how did County Uncle Li know that the monk knew martial arts?

If he really didn't know how to do it, wouldn't that blow just now kill someone?

And ------ what he just smashed was another glazed statue!

"Amitabha..." Several monks who had already spent money to buy the glass statue looked at the debris on the ground and sighed, with expressions of despair on their faces.

The corners of Emperor Jing's mouth twitched, and a look of pain appeared on his face. This was another glazed statue. He dropped it like this, and at least twenty thousand taels were wiped out...

Chen Chong was stunned for a moment, pointed at the monk on the ground, and said angrily: "Old monk, you still say that you don't know martial arts yet!"

"Take it!"

Emperor Jing waved his hand, and two guards immediately stepped forward to grab the monk.

Concubine Cui's face turned cold, she looked at Li Yi and asked, "Who asked you to smash that glass statue!"

Only then did everyone realize that the old monk's lie had been exposed, but ------ the price paid was too high, right?

A glazed statue. If they remembered correctly, this glazed statue had just been sold for nearly 30,000 taels of silver. In other words, after County Uncle Li smashed it, 30,000 taels were gone...

Even if the Liuli statue has nothing to do with them, they still feel a little distressed at this moment...

Before Li Yi could speak, Jingzhao Yin Dong Wenyun came out and said: "Your Majesty, in order to expose this monk's lies, County Uncle Li was so anxious that he smashed this glass statue. It is understandable..."

"Uncle Li County is so quick and quick, I admire Mr. Shen..." the man surnamed Shen just said.

"Mr. Dong's words are reasonable. Uncle Li is also in a hurry. In the final analysis, the responsibility still lies with this monk."

If Dong Wenyun and Shen Xiu stepped forward because Uncle Li had just helped Shen Su out of the siege, then Chen Qing's words surprised everyone.

Chen Qing, who represents the Chen family, actually openly contradicts the imperial concubine?

"Your Majesty, I think this monk is the culprit, and these two Buddha statues should be blamed on him." Another person walked out of the crowd and said with a smile.

Seeing that even the head of the Wang family stood up, the expressions on many people's faces were somewhat shocked.

The rough voice of General Xue came later: "Your Majesty, you should first ask this old monk what bad intentions he had, and then punish him and make them pay compensation."

As soon as General Xue finished speaking, Yan Bing, Minister of War, stood up.

Qin Huan, the Minister of Household Affairs.

Minister of the Ministry of Punishment.

Minister of Dali Temple.

Another veteran...

…

…

Concubine Cui's face was gloomy and terrifying, and the officials belonging to the King of Shu's lineage opened their mouths in astonishment.

It's not surprising that the Shen family came forward, and it's not surprising that Yan Bing, the Minister of War, spoke for him. The general had a tendency to protect him for a long time, but...

The Wang family of Luochuan, the Minister of Household Affairs of the Ministry of Justice, and the officials and dignitaries related to them... When did they have such a close relationship with him?

Everyone knows that Chang'an County Bo Li Yi is not on good terms with the King of Shu, and is even more on the same page with the officials of the King of Shu. Everyone only thinks that he relies on His Majesty's holy family to maintain his current situation. One day he will lose the holy family. Sooner or later it will be over...

But who would have thought that his influence in the court would be so great?

Doesn't it mean that if he supports a certain prince and has the support of these people behind him, all the advantages of King Shu will be gone, and the advantages will immediately turn into disadvantages...

For a moment, the old monk was ignored by everyone...

Li Yi was also a little stunned. What was the Chen family doing to join in the fun? There was also Qin Huan, the Secretary of the Ministry of Revenue. Last time, he specifically asked him to train a few more talents that could be used by the Ministry of Revenue. Is he returning the favor this time?

Minister of Dali Temple, Li Xuan said last time that those were his own people, what happened to the other people? They are completely unfamiliar...

Oh, by the way, some of the people who gave gifts to my family a few days ago seem familiar...

Everyone around was still whispering, Emperor Jing glanced aside, Chang De nodded, stepped forward and asked, "Tell me, why did you do this?"

The monk looked calm and was speechless.

"Why doesn't this monk speak?"

"It's tens of thousands of taels of silver. Can he afford it?"

"I'm also curious, does this monk have a grudge against the Chen family?"

…

…

While everyone was whispering, Li Yi suddenly said: "Your Majesty, I just seemed to have seen that the master and... the princess said a few words..."

He said the first half of the sentence very softly, but the word "princess" was very strong.

"What?" Emperor Jing didn't hear Li Yi's words clearly and asked in confusion: "What did you just say?"

"Amitabha..." the old monk finally spoke and said: "The poor monk and Princess Hui are strangers to each other. I am afraid that this gentleman has made a mistake."

Chang De glanced at Li Yi. With his master's hearing, he didn't hear clearly what Li Yi said about the princess. He looked at him and asked, "You said that the monk talked to Princess Hui?"

"No..." Li Yi shook his head and said, "I thought about it and it seems that I saw the wrong person just now. What did Chang Zongguan say about Princess Hui?"

The old monk looked up at him, with an expression of disbelief in his eyes, and finally lowered his head.

"Li County Lord is very wise, and I have nothing to say."

After saying this, the old monk said nothing.

After a short silence, the crowd silently made way. Princess Hui stood at the end of the road with a pale face.

"Queen, leave this matter to you." Emperor Jing said lightly, looked at Li Yi, and said, "Come with me."

Watching Emperor Jing walk to the back hall, Li Yi shook his head and followed him.

"This time, my Chen family doesn't owe you anything." When he walked past Chen Chong, he glanced at Li Yi and whispered.

Li Yi turned to look at the third daughter of the Chen family and said, "Remember to ask the imperial physician to treat the wound again. Don't touch water in the next few days."

Watching his back disappear, some officials in the crowd gathered together, their faces slightly gloomy.

"I didn't expect that he would have such an influence in the court..."

"If he is allowed to develop, there will be troubles!"

"Humph, if it weren't for today, it would be fine. Making friends is a taboo for His Majesty. Do you think his favor can continue?"

One person showed a sneer on his face, and the rest of the people were stunned for a while, and then smiled.

In the back hall, Emperor Jing was sitting on the main seat, looking at Li Yi, with a look of pain on his face, and said: "If you throw it, the 20,000 taels of silver in the national treasury will be gone..."

"Your Majesty, it's 10,000 taels." Li Yi reminded him: "Have you forgotten that I still have half of it..."

The expression on Emperor Jing's face twitched, and he changed the subject: "How do you know that the old monk knows martial arts?"

"I don't know..."

"..." Emperor Jing was slightly stunned and asked: "Then you dare to smash it like that?"

Li Yi looked at him and said: "My hand slipped, and I was too modest..."

"The last question." Emperor Jing took a deep breath and asked: "How do you know it was Concubine Hui?"

Concubine Cui is too scheming to do such a thing. To set up such an idiotic situation in such an occasion, her IQ must be low to a certain extent. Concubine Hui obviously agreed to this condition, and it was not the first time she did such a thing.

Chen Chong kicked and broke the ribs of Prince Duanyang. She had a motive for revenge. Of course, when he and the princess came in just now, the Princess Hui looked at him coldly, which made him very uncomfortable. This was also one of the important reasons...

In short, in short, Li Yi thought about it, looked at Emperor Jing and said, "Guess..."
