"Li Xun, why do you need to be so serious in life? Isn't it good to be wise and foolish?"

After saying this, Zhao Xun shook his head and sneered: "Yes, wise and foolish, how many people can do it?"

Zhao Xun's attitude was a bit abnormal. He always took Emperor Xingzong Zhao Zhi as an example, and learned from him everywhere, doing things, speaking, and even his expression.

Taciturn and quiet are the most realistic portrayal of Emperor Xingzong Zhao Zhi.

And now Zhao Xun is indeed a little out of control.

Of course, it is not just Zhao Xun who is abnormal and out of control, but Li Xun also has some.

Li Xun picked up the wine pot beside him, poured a whole large bowl towards the bowl, then picked it up, and drank it all in one sip.

When the emperor was having a meal, if the minister happened to arrive, if it was an ordinary minister, then wait outside. The emperor would have to wait for the longest time. If it was a minister with a higher status or an important minister at the top of the prime minister, the emperor would not let him wait outside, but would call him in.

As for what the emperor said about eating together, it was just a politeness. No one would take it seriously and dare not take it seriously. Don’t say that eating together, you dare not sit down because the etiquette is not in line with it. This is a taboo thing. In front of the emperor, ministers should maintain modesty and cautiousness and do things that are not in line with etiquette. This is a manifestation of arrogance and arrogance, and will definitely arouse the emperor’s suspicion and dissatisfaction.

Of course, it is not completely none. For example, the emperor issued an edict in advance and notified the ministers to come for dinner, and the king and his ministers would eat and chat.

But this is very rare.

For example, although Li Xun had eaten at the same table with the emperor many times, it was all in Changle Palace, with his aunt Li Yi as the middle bridge. As for eating alone with Emperor Xingzong Zhao Zhi or Zhao Xun, the monarch and ministers, he never even had it.

Now Li Xun, Zhao Xun asked him to sit down, and he really sat down.

When Zhao Xun asked him to have dinner together, Li Xun really took the wine pot and poured himself a large bowl of wine. This behavior was also extremely abnormal and incompetent.

Halfway through Li Xun's drink of wine, a strong impulse surged out of his abdomen. Li Xun sprayed out a sip of wine, which made the table full of squirts and coughed violently.

"Your Majesty, I... it's useless. Now I can't even drink such a little wine."

Li Xun coughed while saying this intermittently.

Zhao Xun put down the chopsticks in his hand, looked at Li Xun coldly with his eyes.

An inexplicable aura rose between the two.

Zhao Chengde, who was standing aside, felt this breath and a powerful pressure, which was coming to his face.

Zhao Chengde's eyes flashed, so he waved to his left and right, and left the hall with all seven or eight eunuchs and palace maids in the hall, leaving the space for Li Xun and Zhao Xun.

Some things must happen today.

Li Xun's face turned red. Because of a violent cough, he almost didn't get up in one breath and almost fell into a coma.

Li Xun leaned on the chair, his vision was half bright and half dark. After a long time, he slowly recovered.

"Li Xun, what kind of person do you think you are?"

Zhao Xun suddenly said this.

Li Xun sat upright and asked back, "What do the emperor think?"

Zhao Xun said coldly: "I think you are a useless person."

Li Xun shook his head: "I think what the emperor said is wrong, at least it is not completely correct."

Zhao Xun sneered, "Oh, where did I say it wrong?"

Li Xun said indifferently: "Your Majesty, I am really useless. Since I became the prime minister, I have performed in the court. I am indeed too mediocre and can't help the emperor much. This is my fault, but... I have only such great ability, I have tried my best... But..."

"I still have a clear conscience about the country."

Zhao Xun mocked: "You are a clear conscience, you, Li Xun, aren't worthy yet?"

"I think I'm worthy."

Li Xun said slowly: "I have made some contributions to the Battle of Jiangnan, the Battle of Longyou, the Battle of Western Regions, and... the Battle of Lingnan."

Zhao Xun sneered: "As far as this is concerned, without you, Li Xun, these wars would have failed?"

Li Xun shook his head: "The emperor misunderstood what I mean. What I want to say is that when I fight on the battlefield, I think more about the honor and disgrace of the country, the rise and fall of the country, and the gains and losses of the country. I really don't care much about my own gains and losses, and I always have the possibility of death in battle. I am actually very brave, and I am even very afraid of death. But for some reason, after I arrived at the battlefield, I saw those killings, but I was not so afraid or afraid."

Li Xun is telling the truth, and he is definitely not showing his merits or beautifying himself. Every word is in his heart.

However, Zhao Xun obviously disbelief of these words, and even sneered at them.

Zhao Xun leaned forward and stared at Li Xun, and said in a dark voice: "Li Xun, do you know that in today's court meeting, the aristocratic families want to die and get the consent of most court officials, but I can't bear it. Of course, I don't care whether you die or not, but I don't want my mother to be sad. If it weren't for my persistence, if it weren't for the sudden arrival of King Yan Zhao Heng, who tried his best to advise you and attracted the help of other royal princes, I would be really bad... Of course, the final result is pretty good, and I barely saved your life."

"You are so rude and rude when you see me, you still have the face to show me credit and make achievements in front of me. Do you have the face to do this?"

“Is there any?”

At the end, Zhao Xun slapped the table suddenly and roared at Li Xun.

Li Xun looked at Zhao Xun with a calm expression. For some reason, at this moment, facing Zhao Xun's furious anger, there was no trace of turmoil in his heart.

What is this feeling?

Perhaps it is the greater sorrow than the death of the heart!

Li Xun said indifferently: "If I deserve to die, I am willing to die."

Zhao Xun laughed in anger: "Then why are you still alive?"

Li Xun remained silent.

Zhao Xun had already said something to death, but Li Xun could not answer.

"Li Xun, I don't want to see you, because I don't want you to be too embarrassed. My mother is the only nephew of a later life. If I do too extreme to you, the Li family will be extreme. How can the mother be without hatred?"

Zhao Xun shook his head and sighed, "I have been hiding the things you have done in the dark, but some people know more in detail than me. They all say that you, Li Xun, are a loyal and kind person, but are actually treacherous villain. Do you think you are such a person?"
