The Sims: The Emperor Raising Project

Chapter 54
Seeing that Liu Bian was looking at him with an unkind expression, Yang Xiu sat back in embarrassment.

Yang Xiu dared to say such rebellious words in front of Liu Bian, on the one hand because of his youthful vigor, and on the other hand because he subconsciously ignored Liu Bian at all.

There is a saying that a downcast phoenix is ​​not as good as a chicken, not to mention that Liu Bian is not just downcast at all. It seems more appropriate to describe his current situation with the phrase panic like a bereaved dog.

Liu Bian silently picked up a branch from the ground, broke it off with all his strength, and threw it into the bonfire, saying, "If you haven't seen it with your own eyes, you'd better speak carefully."

Yang Xiu sneered, pointed at Li Ru who was sitting beside him with his head bowed, and said: "The old thief is treacherous, he deliberately used words to provoke me, he wanted to use my mouth to humiliate the king."

Li Ru rubbed the welts on his cheeks, sneaked a glance at Liu Bian with lingering fear, then turned his head to look at Yang Xiu, and said, "Boy, there must be a basis for what you say, and don't make irresponsible remarks."

Yang Xiu cast a sidelong glance at Li Ru, curled his lips contemptuously, and said, "A disloyal and unfilial person like you, is there anything you can't do?"

Li Ru retorted without giving in the slightest bit: "A moth in the court, a thief who steals the country, how can there be anything of faith?"

Liu Bian, Tang Ji, Yuwen Chengdu, and Chai Shao were sitting around the bonfire, eating deliciously roasted barbecue, and smilingly looking at Li Ru and Yang Xiu, who refused to give in to each other, as if they were citing classics. When scolding each other, the four of them also smiled knowingly.

"It turns out that quarreling can also make people forget to sleep and eat." Yu Wencheng said, putting a piece of fat and thin barbecue into his mouth, and immediately began to chew with a look of intoxication.

"Literati value reputation more than life, and no one wants to be given such a bad reputation." Liu Bian said.

Yu Wencheng frowned, and said: "Whether it's Li Ru or Yang's, in fact, what they said is not wrong, they are all the heinous bastards that each other said."

Liu Bian smiled slightly, and said: "Those things that are not on the table, you can do it, but you can't say it. Once someone exposes their evil deeds in public, they will definitely face an endless situation."

Chai Shao had already seen through Liu Bian's thoughts, so he deliberately reminded: "Their quarrel is getting more and more fierce. Your Majesty had better intervene. If it really becomes a situation where there is no end to death, as far as your majesty is concerned, It's definitely not a good thing, and His Majesty doesn't want to see the day when they draw their swords at each other, does he?"

Liu Bian looked at Chai Shao with a smile, and said: "The parents who gave birth to me, and the heirs who know me."

As Liu Bian said, he reached out to take the dagger in Tang Ji's hand, and tapped lightly on the shelf in front of the bonfire a few times. Seeing that he had successfully attracted the attention of Li Ru and Yang Xiu, he pointed to the shelf with a smile. He said: "The two great talents have been arguing for so long, aren't you hungry? It's better to fill your stomach first, and it's never too late to quarrel."

Hearing this, Yang Xiu hurriedly walked in front of Liu Bian and the others, reached out to take the dagger that Liu Bian handed over, and began to feast on it.

Li Ru's eyes were full of longing when he looked at the barbecue, but to everyone's surprise, he didn't go up to eat like Yang Xiu, but closed his eyes silently.

"Starving to death is a small matter, but injustice is a major matter."

Liu Bian gave Li Ru a thumbs up with a smile, and said, "Wenyou has the style of the ancients, and I deeply admire it."

As Liu Bian spoke, he cut off a palm-sized piece of barbecue on the grill with a knife, then walked to Li Ru's side, and sat down on his shoulder.

Seeing this, Chai Shao imitated Li Ru and came to the other side of Li Ru, leaning on his other shoulder, and sat down silently.

The sound of teeth gnawing on the barbecue, and the sound of the two of them deliberately smacking their mouths while chewing, the greedy Li Ruzhen wanted to slam his head against the pillars in the guest house to death.

"Zhuzi is frivolous and has no dignity at all. What the former emperor said is true." Li Ru thought so.

At this time, Yang Xiu also sat down in front of Li Ru with a large piece of barbecue in his hand.

Li Ru was sitting against the wall, while Liu Bian and the others were in the front, left, and right directions, launching an all-round barbecue offensive against Li Ru.

Li Ru was dragged by Liu Bian and his party for a day's journey, and now he is exhausted and hungry. He originally had a thought of not being eaten, but now he was punished by Liu Bian and others. Now Li Ru Confucianism, I really want to die.

Li Ru finally experienced personally what it is like to live but die, and also thoroughly experienced the feeling of being played around with applause.

Rao Li Ru has been working very hard to restrain his appetite, but the smell of barbecue is coming to his face, and he can't hide it even if he wants to avoid it, making Li Ru unconsciously swallow his saliva.

Liu Bian saw that Li Ru's thoughts had begun to show signs of loosening, so he smiled and sent a large piece of delicious barbecue directly to Li Ru's mouth.

Li Ru sniffed his nose vigorously, the irresistible smell of barbecue made him silently open his eyes.

Li Ru's eyes sized up the faces of the crowd, and finally fell on Liu Bian's face. After the two looked at each other silently for a long time, Li Ru said slowly, "This move by the king seems to be a big deal. It's a bit frivolous, and there is no majesty at all."

Hearing this, Liu Bian gradually put away his playful thoughts, and said seriously: "Just a few hours ago, I was just a lamb waiting to be slaughtered, Wen You, tell me, a lamb waiting to be slaughtered What is the use of the so-called majesty of a slaughtered lamb?"

Li Ru frowned when he heard the words, then took a deep look at Liu Bian, and said, "You are too modest, you are not a lamb, you are the former Son of Heaven, and now the King of Hongnong."

Li Ru stretched out his finger and pointed to the barbecue that was placed in front of the bonfire, then looked directly into Liu Bian's eyes, and said word by word: "Beasts have the way of death of animals, and kings also have the way of death of kings, even if it is death, You should also always bear in mind your own identity, and you should not do things that would damage the face of the royal family just now."

After Li Ru finished speaking, Yu Wencheng immediately pulled out the Bailianhuanshou knife from his waist, and Chai Shao also raised his whip at the same time.

Li Ru stared intently at Liu Bian's eyes, trying to find a trace of the recklessness that a young man should have on his face, but Liu Bian's reaction was far beyond his expectations. After that, he just curled his lips silently and said, "Do you want to die?"

Li Ru was startled, and when he was about to speak, Liu Bian didn't give him a chance to speak, but Liu Bian waved his hand at him with contempt, and said, "Wenyou, I advise you to Get rid of this heart, before I'm out of danger, you don't want to escape from my palm."

Liu Bian patted Li Ru's shoulder lightly, and said with a smirk: "The old saying is good: people are valuable with self-knowledge, Wenyou, do you have self-knowledge?"
