Film and Television: Immortality Begins in the Kingdom of Qing

But what does this have to do with Li Chengxian? He can just have fun and drink as he pleases.

Li Chengze is already the limit; what else does he have?

Does he have a good father, or a wife with a slightly spicy personality?

Seeing that everyone around him was silent and stunned by his presence, Li Chengxian waved his hand and laughed.

"Keep drinking, keep dancing. By the way, Tian Shu, since the brothers are here, let's stay and have some fun together."

Let us give a proper thank you to Prince Li Chengze of Wei; today, our young master Li will be footing the bill for the entire meal!

Yoho!

The entire venue erupted instantly.

The greedy soldiers, like wolves and tigers, searched for the most beautiful courtesan of their choosing.

Fortunately, it was a big event, and the courtesan was invited in large numbers.

For a time, singing and dancing filled the air, with melodious tunes and the shouts of soldiers playing drinking games and the laughter of girls creating a lively atmosphere.

Only Li Chengze and Li Hongcheng were distracted. They weren't that carefree; they were so scared they were practically numb. How could they possibly play?

.........

Li Chengxian was awakened by a notification sound in her consciousness.

Pushing aside the arms pressing down on him, he couldn't help but feel a surge of joy.

Open the character panel in your consciousness and take a look.

Not bad, I got so many achievement points for free during this luxurious outing.

But thinking about the great power that was about to come and the need to upgrade his own power, Li Chengxian directly opened the Longevity System Shop.

[System, purchased three Rank 9 Breakthrough Pills.]

Seeing his achievement points instantly cleared, Li Chengxian was filled with energy.

The thought that several top experts would soon emerge from his ranks filled him with awe.

A surge of confidence welled up within me. I'm truly invincible! No matter how long or arduous the journey, I will forge ahead relentlessly!

Chapter 35: You think you can leave without suffering a lot? [Please add to your favorites]

"Did he really say that?"

Emperor Qing looked down at the palace officials below, a look of surprise on his face.

"Yes, Your Majesty, this old servant has repeated this passage from the secret report for the third time. There is no way there could be a single mistake, and the spies would not dare to lie."

Emperor Qing tapped the memorial in his hand on his left palm and suddenly let out a soft laugh.

"Ten thousand bones wither, nine generations are exterminated"—that's going too far, it's utter nonsense. Imperial power isn't that terrifying.

However, this little brat is too much of a troublemaker; he actually imprisoned the commander of my capital's garrison in the dungeon.

"Outrageous! This is blatant disrespect to me, the emperor! Come with me to the Cloud Heaven Palace to demand an explanation!"

Upon hearing this, Eunuch Hou felt somewhat helpless.

On one hand, there was a barrage of reprimands, but in the end, it was the emperor himself who had to seek an explanation.

This master's tyranny is probably unmatched.

After settling Si Lili and the other two into the third floor of Baiyujing, Li Chengxian of Yuntian Palace settled them in.

Si Lili was the hostess, while the other two served as her personal maids.

I had just returned to Chengxian Palace when I picked up a classic book.

All I could hear was Emperor Qing shouting and yelling.

"You little rascal, you little brat."

Tianquan quickly entered the main hall and said:

"Your Highness, the Emperor has arrived."

"I heard it. I'm so old, I'm afraid my voice is too soft and others won't hear me."

That voice... it's aged, really aged. I'm afraid that empty imperial tomb won't be ready for use for many more years.

Li Chengxian looked at Emperor Qing, who had already stepped into the main hall, and said.

"Old? Apart from you, who in the entire Qing Kingdom dares to say that I am old?"

I think they don't want their heads anymore, but you little brat, what you did this time wasn't very ethical.

Who is Ye Zhong? He's the commander of my capital city garrison! You're slapping me in the face!

"Slap you in the face? Do you even have the nerve to talk back?"

Li Chengxian paid no attention, opened the book in his hand and took a couple of sips of tea.

I'm afraid I sweated too much last night, which is why I've been so thirsty.

"I have no face to show for it! Explain yourself properly!"

Emperor Qing pointed to his own nose, as if he had been angered.

"Pack?"

Li Chengxian said calmly:

"For sixteen years you have lived deep in the palace and rarely seen the court officials. You probably only know what the eunuchs guarding the Six Ministries and the Three Offices look like."

Some of the court officials probably had never even seen him before.

"So what? I am the emperor. Why should I see those people?"

"There are spies monitoring all officials on ordinary days, so I can know what's happening in the world even though I'm in the palace!"

Emperor Qing looked up and said with considerable arrogance.

"When you're poor, no one cares even in the bustling city; when you're rich, even distant relatives come to visit."

When the emperor is far away and there is no tiger in the mountains, monkeys become kings.

Do I need to explain it again? You old man should thank me and give me a little something for my trouble.

I saw you've brought in a few more grade-eight spiritual herbs from your private stash. I'm giving you a chance; don't be ungrateful.

After Li Chengxian finished speaking, she continued flipping through the book.

Upon hearing this, Emperor Qing finally lost his composure and burst into laughter.

Pointing at Li Chengxian, he said:

"You, you are really audacious, trying to intimidate others by striking at the mountain, but the mountain and tiger you chose are too big, and you have learned your lesson enough."

"Once you fall into my hands, you think you can leave without suffering a severe beating?"

This isn't my style. Last night that guy tried to teach me about hierarchy and manners. I don't have any other redeeming qualities; I hold grudges.

"Suit yourself! I'm finding it increasingly difficult to deal with you."

Seeing that Emperor Qing had finished speaking and was not about to leave, Li Chengxian remained silent. He knew that Emperor Qing was definitely not there for Ye Zhong.

Splash!

Emperor Qing strolled around, accompanied by the sound of pages turning.

I couldn't hold back for long.

"Tell me, how can you let him go?"

"As I just said, Ye Zhong will not be released."

"You know who I'm talking about!"

Li Chengxian's lips curled up slightly. Why didn't you do this earlier? It would have been so much better to get straight to the point. He then looked at Emperor Qing with a calm gaze.

Their eyes met, and it was as if they were engaged in an invisible battle.

The silk handkerchief that hadn't been soaked for days, which was beside him, once again came in handy.

"The son of the Minister of Rites, who is in charge of compiling documents for the Crown Prince, is considered to be the Crown Prince's study companion."

Do you think Ye Zhong would dare to act so arrogantly over a prince and his heir without Li Chengqian standing behind him?

"You knew I would teach him a lesson. You've already dealt with the military, so let's forget about the civil officials."

The civil administration of Nanqing is weak, and I still rely on them to serve me like slaves. The Ministers of the Six Ministries absolutely cannot be allowed to fall into trouble.

"That's your problem. It's no use talking to me. Can't you be a little more sensible? Are all the people in the Southern Qing court dead?"

Upon hearing this, Emperor Qing's face turned cold. He snorted and turned to leave with Eunuch Hou.
