"Which Zhang family is the Zhang family? Continue. Don't stop. There are still a few more families after that. You might as well say them all together …"
Li Yi walked in from outside, looked at Prince Xin, and said calmly.
The maniacal smile and craziness on Prince Xin's face melted rapidly like snow. He silently turned and walked outside.
When Li Yi was the County Marquis, he could not afford to offend him. Now that Li Yi was the Gyeong Of Silla and was in no way inferior to him in terms of status, it was even more so that he could not afford to offend Li Yi.
Since he could not afford to offend Li Yi, he could only wait until Li Yi left the capital before offending the Chen Clan.
"Thinking of leaving just like that?" Li Yi turned, looked at him, and asked, "Don't you think it's too much to want to run after putting on airs?"
Prince Xin's growth was really great. He had grown from a naive and sweet prince to someone who could say things like 'I like how you can't do anything to me even if you can't stand the sight of me' in just a few months' time.
Seeing that Prince Xin did not reply at all, neither did Prince Xin fly into a rage, nor did he ask him what he wanted, but Prince Xin simply walked out of the door, Li Yi was even more certain that hardships could really make one grow. Prince Xin had changed and was no longer the Prince Xin from before.
"Fang."
Fang had been by his side for many years, and their cooperation was flawless. Before Li Yi could say anything, he had already blocked the door before Prince Xin walked out.
Prince Xin threw him a glance and said in a deep voice, "Make way."
"A straightforward person doesn't resort to insinuations." Li Yi walked over, looked at Prince Xin, and said, "After what you said earlier, how can I leave the capital with peace of mind? Why can't you just bear with it a little longer? Don't you understand the logic of a little impatience spoiling great plans? "
"A stray dog … Using your life to make up for it?" Li Yi patted Prince Xin's shoulder and said, "Young man, remember not to be too full of yourself."
Prince Xin felt an excruciating pain coming from his shoulder, and his forehead was drenched in sweat. He opened his mouth but was unable to make a sound.
Li Yi patted his other shoulder and said, "There's no need to wait for me to leave the capital. You'll leave earlier than me."
With both of his arms crippled, Prince Xin could not even let out a cry of pain. His vision turned dark, and he fainted.
A guard from Prince Xin Manor walked up and said with great difficulty, "Prince Gyeong Of Silla …"
"Bring him back." Li Yi picked up Prince Xin's collar and tossed him out, saying, "Don't come to the capital in the future."
It was true that Prince Xin had become smarter, but he was not smart enough. Or rather, he was not patient enough.
If Fang Xingjian had not coincidentally encountered him today, he might have really forgotten about this unstable factor. Of course, even if he had forgotten about it, he still had other arrangements for this place. With just Prince Xin or some other clans, they would not be able to create any waves.
"Miaoyu, Miaoyu …" Suddenly, Chen Chong's panicked voice came from behind. Li Yi hurriedly turned around and saw Chen Chong supporting Third Miss Chen with an anxious expression.
Third Miss Chen's face was pale and she looked very weak. She shook her head and said, "Second Brother, I'm fine."
She looked at Li Yi with a smile on her face. "You're here …"
Li Yi hurriedly walked over and asked, "What's wrong?"
She smiled, shook her head, and said, "I caught a cold two days ago. I'll be fine after some rest. It's not a big deal."
Chen Chong turned to look at a shop assistant in the shop and said, "Lijun, go get a doctor to take a look."
"There's no need." Li Yi waved his hand, tossed something to Fang, and said, "Fang, take this token and go to the palace to get the Imperial Physician Token over."
"Alright!" Fang took the token and ran out quickly.
Chen Chong's lips parted, but he did not say anything else. He turned and said, "Miaoyu, I'll help you in to rest for a while."
Li Yi stayed in the shop. When Chen Chong came out, he asked with a grim countenance, "What's wrong with you? How do you take care of people? Why did you suddenly catch a cold?"
Chen Chong looked at him and said, "When Miaoyu heard that you were leaving, she said that she wanted to personally make a few sets of clothes for you. She worked through the night to make them and fell sick yesterday."
Li Yi found a chair and sat down, no longer speaking.
Chen Chong sat down on the other side and glanced into the room. When he turned back, hesitation, confusion, and perplexity appeared on his face …
After a moment, he suddenly asked, "You really have to leave?"
Li Yi nodded. "I really have to leave."
Chen Chong took a deep breath. After a long time, he said, "Take Miaoyu with you."
Li Yi thought for a moment, then said, "Don't worry. After I leave, I will take care of the matters here."
Chen Chong's eyes were bloodshot as he stared at him. He lowered his voice and said, "Do you still not understand? Miaoyu will not be happy if she stays here!"
Li Yi's eyes widened and he said angrily, "Why don't you try being fierce again?"
Chen Chong closed his eyes and leaned against the back of the chair as if all the energy in his body had been sucked out.
Li Yi also looked into the room and said in a small voice, "I came here today precisely for this matter."
… …
Imperial Physician Liu Jimin arrived very quickly. Just as he got off the carriage, he was carried in by Fang.
"The medicine chest, don't forget the medicine chest …"
"I won't forget, hurry up …"
After standing up with great difficulty, he straightened his clothes and bowed respectfully to Li Yi. "This lowly official greets His Highness Gyeong Of Silla …"
"No need for such formalities." Li Yi waved his hand and said, "Let's go in and take a look first …"
Liu Jimin nodded and walked into the room with the medicine chest on his shoulder.
A moment later, he withdrew his three fingers from Third Young Miss Chen's wrist and said, "It's just a small cold. Coupled with the fact that you've been too tired these past two days, I'll prescribe a medicine. If you take it regularly, you'll be fine in two or three days."
Chen Chong clasped his hands and said, "Many thanks, Lord Liu."
"I'll go write a prescription." Liu Jimin smiled and walked out of the room.
"Third sister, rest for a while." Chen Chong smiled at Third Young Miss Chen lying on the bed and walked out of the room with Li Yi.
Walking away from the door of the room, Chen Chong closed his eyes, clenched and unclenched his fists, loosened them, and clenched them again. After a long time, he opened his eyes and said, "I'll take it as a promise."
Li Yi looked at him and said, "You know that my promise is useless."
Chen Chong took a deep breath and said, "I'll try to persuade Miaoyu."
Li Yi shook his head and said, "Leaving the capital, leaving the Chen clan, she still won't be happy. It's the same principle."
Chen Chong's eyes dimmed. "Your family is leaving the capital, how can our Chen clan follow?"
"Who said it's just our family?" Li Yi shook his head and said, "There are several hundred to a thousand people. If you want to leave, you can just be a coachman or coachman. It doesn't matter if there's one more person …"
This time around, they were leaving the capital to do something big. How could a few people be enough? The strategic center of the brothel was going to be shifted to the west, and they were going to build a new merchant group and build a business district in the west. The Liu Alliance would naturally have to shift their base as well. They were preparing to turn their previous business into a brothel. Those martial artists had been coming back and forth from the chaotic lands for the past two years and had long since treated that place as their second base. Now that the alliance head had left, what was the point of them remaining in the capital?
In the past, they had been busy working for others and had been idling around. Now that they were finally going to fight for their own business, they were filled with vigor. Even their meals were much more delicious than before.
"Over a thousand people …" Chen Chong looked at him and was stunned for a moment before he gritted his teeth and said, "Why didn't you say so earlier?"
"I saw that you were having a lot of mental activities earlier and couldn't bear to disturb you …"
…
After Chen Chong calmed down once again, Li Yi asked, "Do you remember the few clans that Prince Xin mentioned earlier?"
"What are you going to do?" Chen Chong looked at him and asked.
"Kill him!"
