Chapter 63 Arrogance!

Li You was ready to make a move, but Yin Hongzhi was being cautious.

As the Chief Clerk of Li You's Qi Palace, Yin Hongzhi has always served as the external brain for this nephew.

The Yin family is quite sensitive in the Tang Dynasty. After all, Yin Hongzhi's father, Yin Shishi, dug up the Li family's ancestral tomb and chopped up Li Zhiyun, the fifth brother of Lao Li.

Fortunately, Li Shimin did not remember the old grudge, and Yin Hongzhi's sister, Li You's mother, Concubine Yin, was also favored. As a result, Yin Hongzhi was doing well in Chang'an City and made friends with many powerful children.

Before returning, Yin Hongzhi felt that the atmosphere was a little off. If they really wanted to reward him, they would definitely call him back in advance. How could they let him return without any clear reason?
Besides, being in Qizhou, he knew Li You's character better than anyone else. How could a man who would kick a passing dog have a good reputation spread to the capital?

After weighing the pros and cons, he poured cold water on Li You and said, "Ayou, we have just entered the capital, so it is better not to let anyone catch us."

"Don't worry, uncle. Aye loves me so much that he doesn't want to punish me." Li You had no idea what was going on.

Since Li You had already said this, Yin Hongzhi could not persuade him any further.

Just be careful. In the capital, we can't expect him to be as lawless as he was in Qizhou. He needs to be more restrained.

When he arrived at the entrance of the restaurant, Li You was stopped by Wei Daijia at the door.

"I'm sorry, sir, our shop is full. Do you want to queue..."

Before he finished speaking, Yan Hongliang, Li You's bodyguard and Yin Hongzhi's brother-in-law, raised his hand and slapped him in the face.

After slapping him, he angrily shouted at Wei Daijia, "You are blind! How dare you, King of Qi, stop me?"

Wei Daijia was slapped in the face, and he covered his face with his hands, staring at Yan Hongliang with red eyes. However, based on the principle of peace and harmony, he hesitated and did not fight back.

Hearing the noise outside, Li Jingren immediately ran out.

He is in charge today and is worried that no one will come to make trouble.

He rolled up his sleeves and rushed over, muttering, "How dare you come here to cause trouble? I'll kill you today..."

Hmm? Why is it Prince of Qi Li You?
This is not easy to handle.

Even if it was the son of a prince, he would dare to do it. But it was different for the prince. If he beat the prince in public, he would be in big trouble.

Li Jingren put down his sleeves, stepped forward, crossed his arms and bowed, saying: "I, Li Jingren, did not know that the king was coming. I failed to greet you from afar. I hope you will forgive me."

"Little brother? Why don't you take a piss and look at yourself? Whose little brother are you?" Yan Hongliang shouted and was about to take action.

Li Jingren snorted coldly and glared at Yan Hongliang: "I am the youngest son of King Jiangxia Li Dao Zong. Can I not call myself a younger brother in front of King Qi?"

"This……"

Yan Hongliang checked his seniority in his mind and found that there was nothing wrong with the other person calling himself his younger brother.

"So it's Jingren." Li You looked at Li Jingren with a fake smile, "I was wondering who it was. How come this is your property? It's such a great honor that I can't even go in for a meal?"

"I dare not." Li Jingren said with a smile, crossing his hands.

"Since you don't dare, why don't you invite me in?" Li Youmi squinted his eyes.

Wei Daijia crossed his arms and said, "Let the king know that the place is full today and there are no seats left."

Li You looked Wei Daijia up and down and cursed him with disdain: "Hey, you found a bug while cracking melon seeds, and you came here to pretend to be someone else?"

Yin Hongzhi noticed something was wrong. He stood aside and whispered, "My lord, there may be some power behind this restaurant..."

"Oh, how big can the background of this restaurant be? No matter how big it is, can it be bigger than my background?" Li You cursed crazily: "I don't believe it today. Isn't it just your Li Jingren's restaurant?"

"I came to the capital on the orders of the Emperor!" He clasped his fists in the direction of the Imperial Palace, "It is your blessing to dine in your restaurant today!"

"Your Majesty, this restaurant is full. I can't kick out a table of guests for you, right?" Li Jingren said in embarrassment.

"Hey, I'm going to teach you a lesson... Get your weapons!"

After Li You finished speaking, he reached for his waist and unsheathed his long sword with a clanging sound. The guards behind him also unsheathed their swords and were about to take action.

Li Jingren was quick-witted and quick-handed, and pushed Li You's sword back before it could be unsheathed.

Li You never thought that Li Jingren, a mere son of a prince, would dare to stop him? He even dared to make a move on him and pushed his unsheathed sword back?
"Arrogant!" he shouted angrily, his eyes wide open.

"Your Majesty, I am doing this for your own good." Li Jingren advised earnestly, "Your Majesty, why not look up and see the plaque on this restaurant..."

Li You was not hopelessly stupid. Since Li Jingren said so, he just looked up.

It didn't matter that he took a look at it. The four large characters written in a flamboyant style immediately brought back his memories.

"This word..."

Li You looked at Li Jingren hesitantly, his voice trembling.

“Could it be…could it be that this is…?”

He didn't dare to tell the whole story and only asked half of the question.

"Otherwise, my king, think about it, why do I, as the son of King Jiangxia, have to serve here?"

In fact, this was an exaggeration, he was just sitting here for a while, he couldn't be considered a waiter. But in order to make Li You feel a little bit cautious, he could only use the tiger skin as a banner.

But he didn't say the whole thing, so that Li You could imagine it himself.

"I am also saving you, my king."

Li Jingren's words are meaningful.

Li You couldn't help but tremble, and the thought of it was terrified.

Yes, it all makes sense! Why would the son of King Jiangxia be willing to serve here regardless of his dignity, and even more so, he would not care about offending his own prince in order to protect the restaurant...

I almost got into trouble! Damn it!

Li You's mind raced, he immediately put on a smiling face and started to put his arm around Li Jingren's shoulders.

Being able to bend and stretch is his usual style.

After a while, he whispered in Li Jingren's ear: "I haven't been here tonight!"

After that, he looked up and shouted, "Let's go!"

Just as he turned around to leave, Li Xiang came over on horseback.

He had just been chased from Mingde Hall to the main gate by Li Chengqian. He thought he was free anyway and wanted to relax on the street, but he didn't expect to meet Yuchi Xunyu.

After hearing that Wei Daijia was slapped by King Qi Li You, Li Xiang did not dare to be negligent and immediately urged his horse to rush over here.

"Wait!"

He rushed to Li You and others and got off his horse cleanly and neatly.

Li You stopped and looked at the person who came with a bad look.

"Brother!" All the playboys clasped their fists and said.

Li Xiang ignored Li You and walked straight to Wei Daijia.

"Daijia, who hit you just now?" Li Xiang reached out and rubbed his head, asking in a gentle voice.

Wei Daijia's eyes were red and he just shook his head.

His father was just an official in the Prince of Wei's palace. How could he have the confidence to fight against the Prince of Qi?
