In the end.
Li Shimin didn't punish them.
They were just going through the motions.
After all, the Emperor didn't say how long they would be locked up. Anyway, they would be locked up for a breath!
In the end, the three of them swaggered back to the residence, but they really didn't get their salary. This made the three of them groan, but they also knew that this was the best way.
However, while they were happy, Wei Shuyu was upset.
At this moment, the person carrying out the task of flogging him was Zhangsun Chong.
Zhangsun Chong stared at Wei Shuyu, who was pressed into a chair, and slapped him hard on the butt.
"Tsk tsk, I don't know what your father said to the Emperor. You were supposed to lose your head, but now you're only getting flogged, and I'm the one who personally checked!"
"Lord Zhangsun, you have to be gentler! Don't forget what happened last year! "
"I know, I know. How can we be like that between brothers!"
"Oh my!"
"I saw with my own eyes that you, Zhangsun Chong, committed irregularities!"
Just as the two of them were squatting on the ground and chatting, Crown Prince Li Chengqian appeared behind them without even the sound of footsteps.
The two of them were scared out of their wits.
When they saw that it was the Crown Prince, the two of them rolled their eyes.
"Chengqian, you're here to laugh at me too, aren't you?"
Li Chengqian's appearance was very similar to Empress Zhangsun's. He had a high nose bridge and perfectly inherited the bloodline of the Qiang people. As for his dignified eyes, although he was only seventeen years old, he gave off the aura of an emperor from head to toe, raising his originally handsome appearance to another level.
However, these were all when he was facing others.
When he met Zhangsun Chong, Wei Shuyu, and the others, he let go of everything that a Crown Prince should have.
This was his favorite time.
Li Chengqian sat cross-legged across from Wei Shuyu. Smelling the lingering scent of alcohol on his body, he said, "Previously, I was fortunate enough to drink a cup of Zhang Feng's fine wine with Imperial Father. That wine was truly delicious, but why do I smell even stronger alcohol on your body?"
"When I found out about this last night, I was puzzled. How could Wei Shuyu, who usually can't even get three jugs, get drunk before she even finished half a jug?"
"If it wasn't for the fact that the person who said this was idiot Yuchi, I really wouldn't dare to believe this!"
"Don't mention it!"
Wei Shuyu rolled her eyes and pointed at her butt. "I'm about to be hit. Can't you say something nice? Why was he thinking about wine the moment he saw her? Is the fine wine in the palace not enough for you? "
"Hey!"
"Originally, Imperial Father secretly told me to exempt you from the punishment. But now, it seems that you …"
Li Chengqian glanced at Wei Shuyu and slowly got up.
When Wei Shuyu heard this, her eyes widened.
He grabbed Li Chengqian.
"Brother! Good brother! His Majesty already said not to hit you. How can you disobey the imperial edict? "
"Let's go, let's go! Damn it, I don't know what I drank last night. Even now, my head hurts like it was kicked by a horse's hoof! "
As he spoke, Wei Shuyu no longer looked like someone who was about to be punished.
Under the stunned gaze of the official, the three of them walked away with their arms around each other's shoulders.
"Sigh, Shuyu, how did the wine taste?"
Zhangsun asked.
"As for the taste … it was like drinking a ball of fire. Strong!"
"Hey!"
"That good?"
"Of course!"
"Otherwise, do you think I would get drunk with half a jug of wine?"
"Last night, I saw His Majesty and the others drunk and thought that something was wrong, so I personally went to taste it to verify the authenticity of this wine."
Wei Shuyu sighed.
He basically leaned on Li Chengqian and Zhangsun, allowing them to carry him out of the harem.
As they walked, the three of them chatted casually.
"Shuyu, I also secretly drank that wine once. Because of that, I was tied up, hung, and beaten by my father!"
Zhangsun said with some lingering fear.
However, when he mentioned Zhang Feng's wine, he couldn't help but lick his lips.
Wei Shuyu and Li Chengqian couldn't help but look at Zhangsun as if they were looking at a hero.
"Brother Chong, how did the wine taste? Tell me, I keep feeling that something was wrong last night. His Majesty, the four of them, and Zhang Feng. Guess what happened to the five of them? "
"What happened?"
"The five of them drank six jugs of wine!"
"Think about it. I can hold half a jug of wine, but I got drunk. Think about your fathers. How can their alcohol tolerance compare to strong young men like us?"
"They could drink so much and still be fine, but I got drunk with half a jug. If I drank that jug, wouldn't I die?"
"Hiss!"
Li Chengqian and Li Chengqian gasped when they heard this.
Wei Shuyu's alcohol tolerance was somewhat well-known in their circle. Other than the two idiot Yuchi brothers and that fool Cheng Chumo, who could drink more than him?
However, he got drunk all the time.
However, the Emperor and the others were fine after drinking so much?
How could they not know the Emperor and the others' alcohol tolerance?
There was something fishy about this matter!
"What should we do?"
Li Chengqian suddenly stopped at the gate of the Imperial City and asked.
"How about we go and take a look?"
"I'll go!"
