At this moment, even Wang Tenghuan, who was left with only one ear, could hear the anger in Li Chen's calm words.

The previously boisterous Taihe Hall fell silent instantly, with no one daring to speak another word.

Only Wang Tenghuan looked up at Li Chen, his voice firm and resolute: "Does Your Highness think what this old minister said is wrong"

"What What did you say"

Li Chen's voice suddenly rose, angrily rebuking, "This palace only hears you old geezer farting!"

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone in the Taihe Palace widened their eyes in astonishment.

The Taihe Hall has always been the place where the emperor and his ministers discussed government affairs. It was never a harmonious place since ancient times. Disputes and arguments were commonplace.

Even emperors were so angered they stormed out, or officials were scolded to the point of threatening to strike their heads against a pillar in protest. Such dramatic scenes were countless.

To date, no one has ever cursed so blatantly in the Taimiao Hall.

After all, everyone here is a cultured person and among the top echelon of this nation. Even if they get angry, they have to consider their status. No one would directly swear at each other.

Wang Tenghuan, who was being scolded, was the first to react. His old face flushed red with anger and excitement, his whole body trembling. He shouted angrily: "Your Highness insults an old minister like this, don't you consider us ministers as nothing If that's the case, today I die! I will smash my head against the pillar to seek justice!"

Most other officials in the Taihe Palace were loyal to Wang Tenghuan.

There is a saying: "When the lips are gone, the teeth feel cold."

All are subjects, and yet the Prince speaks to a cultured man in such a way. One day he will meet the same fate himself.

And Wang Tenghuan also grasped this point, not backing down at all. Today, he was determined to take advantage of the opportunity to undercut the East Palace's prestige.

As for the first time attending court, after only saying a couple of polite words, Tantai Jing quietly stood aside, encountering such a fiery and dry scene.

He wasn't going to speak up, so he naturally wouldn't take a stance.

For him, now is a good opportunity to observe the imperial court.

He was very curious to know what Li Chen would choose to do in the face of such a situation.

Just when everyone thought that the Crown Prince, facing the surging crowd's anger, would make some concessions, Li Chen made a move.

He walked down from the imperial platform, hands behind his back, and stood before Wang Tenghuan.

Wang Tenghuan looked at Li Chen, who had a blank expression, and felt a little uneasy.

He has seen Li Chen's methods.

That day, he was still in the Taihe Hall when Li Chen chopped off his topknot with a knife. Everyone thought that the world was about to change that day.

Even if Wang Tenghuan was confident, he wouldn't be arrogant enough to think that his standing in Li Chen's mind surpassed Zhao Xuanji's.

"Wang's meaning is, only by releasing Cao Zhijing Erlang can we demonstrate the magnanimity and benevolence of the great Qin Empire"

Li Chen spoke slowly, his face expressionless.

Wang Tenghuan's heart hammered in his chest, but he still mustered his courage and said: "That is right, that Eastern Land nation is nothing more than a small island with barbarians who eat raw meat. To quarrel with such a country would tarnish the glory of our Great Qin."

Li Chen smiled.

But this smile, it's a smile without sincerity.

It's creepy to look at.

Without a word, he kicked.

Wang Tenghuan's old bone frame was kicked by Li Chen's kick, rolling like a gourd on the ground of Taihe Hall for a long distance. Even his official hat flew off.

In the midst of Wang Tenghuan's miserable screams, and with other officials nervously twitching their eyelids, Li Chen said coldly: "This palace sees that you have aged eyes and gone blind!"asons, the scenery will be even more beautiful with birdsong and flowers blooming everywhere, most fitting for a man like you who transcends worldly affairs."Li Chen had been so considerate, so natura...
