Chapter 9

~8 min read 1,555 words

For a time, the onlookers at the scene couldn't tell who was making trouble.

How does it feel that Li Chen is more like saying the villain's lines.

The second generation of ancestor was also furious. If it were normal times, he would have scolded Li Chen's ancestors for eighteen generations, and then let his subordinates break Li Chen's legs and throw him out.

But Li Chen's dragon-patterned robe was there, and the identity of the royal family was there. There were many officials at the scene, so he really didn't have the guts to scold.

But in the eyes of the second generation of ancestor, so what if it's the royal family, the royal family is divided into three, six, and nine grades.

Ordinary royal family members have no power and no money, just a decoration of identity.

"If you have the guts, just continue to stay here, let's wait and see!"

The second generation of ancestor indeed felt from this slap that he was not Li Chen's opponent, so he let his subordinates help him call for help.

Seeing him leave, Li Chen didn't care, he wanted to see how rotten this place was.

But the people around him were anxious. Hitting the son of a court official until he bled in front of so many people, that is, even if you want to settle it privately, it won't work.

Even if the second generation of ancestor doesn't care, other officials will also deal with Li Chen.

Lin Yue'e hurriedly told Li Chen the information about the second generation of ancestor.

This second generation of ancestor is named Chen Jie, the son of Chen Rong of the Ceremonial Department of the Ministry of Rites.

Chen Rong of the Ceremonial Department of the Ministry of Rites is in charge of auspicious etiquette, military etiquette, and managing school affairs and imperial examination affairs. He is a powerful faction in the court, and the power in his hands is not small, and there are many students.

This is the reliance that the second generation of ancestor Chen Jie dares to be arrogant.

Lin Yue'e just wanted to let Li Chen block it, but she didn't expect Li Chen to hit him directly without saying a word.

You know, Chen Jie is Chen Rong's only son, and Chen Rong is famous for protecting his calf.

If Li Chen doesn't handle it well today, at the very least, it will be a prison disaster of ten years.

However, seeing Li Chen still very calm after hearing it, presumably the background should be quite strong.

One of Lin Yue'e's younger sisters was even secretly asking Li Chen what his background was.

Who knew Li Chen said: "I have no background."

Now everyone was completely shocked. You have no background and you dare to hit Chen Jie?

We thought your father was some Prince, now it seems, this guy shouldn't be some royal relative.

Is this ignorance and fearlessness?

And many people at the scene have already cast pitying eyes on Li Chen.

Because just at this moment, Chen Jie has brought reinforcements back.

When Chen Rong of the Ceremonial Department of the Ministry of Rites appeared, he naturally became the focus of the scene.

Many people at the scene immediately stepped forward to greet him, striving to mix a familiar face in front of this court official.

Chen Rong's voice was low and loud, with an unquestionable majesty, and the official tone was just right.

After greeting everyone, he walked to Li Chen's side.

Chen Rong slowly raised his hand and gently stroked the beard that he had carefully managed on his chin.

Every action seemed so calm, as if he had long been accustomed to this high-ranking life and was accustomed to this kind of scene.

Next to Chen Rong, Chen Jie's mouth was even more proud, he seemed to be able to see Li Chen's begging face later.

How you hit me just now, I will hit you back later!

"Who is hitting people here, stand out for this official!"

Chen Rong shouted sharply, full of official power.

This sentence can tell that he is an old oiler in the officialdom.

He didn't ask who hit his son. If he said that, wouldn't it seem that he was protecting his calf.

Chen Rong grasped the point, which was to punish the hitter as a superior.

In the past, it was his son who caused trouble by beating people, and he was in the wrong, so he could only force to protect his calf and let the opposite side give him face.

Now it is his son who was beaten, it is rare to have this kind of 'favorable situation', he must grasp it well.

Even if the hitter is a royal family member, he is in the right!

But what returned to Chen Rong was a big slap!

Boom!

Chen Rong followed the route his son had just flown, and flew again.

He is over sixty years old, and this slap almost cost him his old life. This time, everyone at the scene was completely shocked beyond description.

It's okay for that royal family member to hit the second generation of ancestor just now, at most it's a prison disaster.

But now, he actually dared to hit a court official, and in front of so many people?

If this goes up, it won't be death, but it will be exile!

Lin Yue'e rubbed her eyes. If she didn't see it wrong, this was hit by Li Chen.

She has seen people who are ruthless and don't talk much, but this one doesn't talk at all, and hits directly.

The beaten Chen Rong was also furious.

His son Chen Jie looked at his father with innocent eyes, as if saying: Just now I said that I was beaten like this, you didn't believe it, now you know, this one doesn't reason at all.

Chen Rong spat out blood, looked at Li Chen fiercely, and said angrily: "You royal family is amazing, right? Can royal family members hit people casually!"

Li Chen's mouth twitched slightly, and said: "Can you change the sentence, I have heard this sentence."

Chen Rong gritted his teeth and said: "Fine, fine, fine, you wait for me, tomorrow morning court I must let the Minister participate in you!"

!

As soon as this sentence came out, the audience was in an uproar. Chen Rong is going to make trouble in front of the Emperor, it seems that this matter is not so easy to end.

But this sentence really amused Li Chen.

What? Participate in me?

Who is the person under the hall accusing me?

"Why, now you know you are wrong? It's too late!"

Seeing Li Chen not speaking, Chen Rong thought he was afraid.

The atmosphere at the scene had reached the extreme, and many officials were appeasing Chen Rong's emotions.

Other melon-eating crowds were also guessing whether Li Chen would sit in prison or be exiled to the border this time.

Lin Yue'e quietly pulled Li Chen's sleeve and said: "Why don't we run away quickly."

She had already thought of a retreat in her heart. No matter what, Li Chen was pulled over by her, and she couldn't leave Li Chen behind if something happened.

By then, she and he will find a sect, change their names and live in seclusion.

It's just that I don't know if it's too late to run now.

Li Chen waved his hand and said indifferently: "It's okay, I just want to hit someone who knows me."

Not many people understood this sentence. What is 'hit someone who knows you'?

Could it be that while fighting, you two can still fight out feelings?

No, this sentence sounds so strange.

What he said seems to be 'someone who knows him', not 'he knows'.

It can't be blamed on them for not understanding. Chen Rong's official position is too small, and he is not qualified to attend the morning court, so some court officials have seen Li Chen.

As the saying goes, hit the small one and come the old one, hit the small one and come the big one, Li Chen is to hit a big one.

When everyone at the scene was discussing, the big one finally came.

"Minister of Rites arrives!"

Following the announcement of the guards, the Minister of Rites walked into the hall slowly.

His face was majestic and solemn, and his eyes were deep.

The crowd around bowed their hands in unison, their movements neat and uniform.

Their faces were full of awe and piety. This is a proper big official, and some people will not see him once in their lives.

Seeing his own boss appear, Chen Rong walked quickly to Yan Hai, the Minister of Rites, to complain. Where is the arrogant appearance just now, instead, he is like a child who has been wronged.

Yan Hai frowned slightly. Which royal family member is so bold that he dares to hit his subordinate in his territory.

If he doesn't handle this royal family member strictly, how can he stand in the court.

When Yan Hai walked to this bold royal family member, he knelt on the ground in seconds.

"Subject Yan Hai, see Your Majesty!"
