I was given the contraceptive soup and became the emperor's white moonlight

Chapter 146 Drinking

Li Zhao led the people from the Dali Temple and the old women all the way to the Gu Mansion in a mighty manner. He did not conceal his presence at all along the way and did not care even if there were people with bad intentions following behind him.

When they arrived at the gate of Gu Mansion, a large group of people had already followed them, just waiting to watch the fun.

"Throw them here!" Li Zhao pointed casually, and the people behind him threw the dying people over there. Several old women were already covered with bruises. Several people pulled each other up and fell into a pile again.

"How dare you! Who dares to be so rude in front of the Gu Mansion? Do you know who this place is?" Seeing their posture, the guard ran inside to report to the emperor. When the servants saw that they were here to cause trouble, they surrounded them with sticks in hand.

Several people around Li Zhao drew their knives and waited for Li Zhao's order to rush forward and kill them.

Li Zhao waved his hand to signal them not to act rashly. With a familiar smile on his face, he stepped over them as if he didn't see the people struggling on the ground, causing another round of wailing.

"I'm Li Zhao, the Minister of Dali Temple, and I'm here to pay a special visit to Lord Gu with great courtesy!" Li Zhao showed the token in one hand and put the other hand behind his back, staring straight at the person in front of him with his hawk-like eyes.

Those servants had never seen the badge of the Dali Temple and could not make up their minds for a while, and the two sides were in a stalemate for a while.

"Master Li, Master Li! I am late for coming, I hope you can forgive me!" The words came out first, and Master Gu's voice was heard from afar, which was mixed with a bit of uneasiness.

"Master Gu, I am very rude to visit you without any hesitation." Li Zhao bowed and stepped aside to let the person behind him pass. "I am here to return your lost things."

Gu Shangjie's knees instantly weakened when he saw the people lying on the ground. If he hadn't been in front of so many people in the hall, he would have knelt down. "Hey, what does Lord Li mean by this?"

"Didn't I tell you to return the things that Lord Gu lost?" Li Zhao walked up to the few people and kicked a few who were half-dead.

Those old women no longer looked the same as before. They looked as if they had just been pulled out of a pool of blood. There was nothing visible on their bodies except blood stains.

"This... Lord Li, if you have anything to say, why don't we go inside and talk?" Gu Shangjie had a hard time walking to Li Zhao's side, and even his outstretched hand was shaking. "This old minister's house has just received a batch of good tea, Lord Li, please be sure to come and have a look."

"Well, brothers, you should be thirsty after running all the way for Lord Gu." Li Zhao nodded, waved his hand, took the lead and stepped over the person on the ground.

Gu Shangjie waited until all the people from the Dali Temple had gone in before he hurriedly ordered his men to disperse the crowd and drag those lying on the ground in, then he hurriedly ran inside.

With a "click" the door closed tightly, and several streaks of bright red blood extended from where the few people had been lying, extending straight into the door.

"what happened?"

"Who knows? It's likely that Lord Gu has offended someone from the Dali Temple."

"That's right. Otherwise, who would deliberately carry a few half-dead people to someone else's doorstep?"

"Why is Lord Gu so polite to that person from Dali Temple?" someone asked in confusion.

"You don't understand this!" Someone beside him stood up and said, "Haven't you heard that there is a Jade-faced Yama in the Dali Temple? He's the leader!"

"No one in this world dares to offend him! If you are not careful, he will use all his skills on you!"

"Right, right, right!" another person said calmly, "I heard that the Jade-faced Yama is not only cruel, but also very skilled in torturing people. It is said that he can cut the prisoner's body with 999 cuts in just the lingchi method, and the prisoner can still be alive and well!"

"How is that possible? You are talking nonsense!" The other person on the other side was very unconvinced, "Nine hundred and ninety-nine cuts! If you can survive ninety-nine cuts, I will respect you as a man!"

"Hey, how do you talk like that?"

"Go away!" The gatekeeper saw a few people gathered together and talking endlessly, so he came up to chase them away in a bad mood.

How could the common people dare to fight with these people? They all fled in a hurry, and even took a sip before leaving.

"Master Li, please have some tea!" Without the bloody scene in front of him, Gu Shangjie finally breathed a sigh of relief and calmed down a lot, "Someone, come and bring up the best snacks!"

As soon as he finished speaking, several maids who looked like angels jumped into the room, each holding an exquisite porcelain plate and placing delicate snacks in front of Li Zhao.

Li Zhao picked up a piece nonchalantly. It was indeed of a different size. "Master Gu, my brothers..."

"Don't worry, Lord Li! I will make sure you are satisfied with the arrangements." Lord Gu saw him pick up the cake and said impatiently, "This cake is specially made by me. The filling inside is unique. You must try it, Lord."

"Oh?" Li Zhao weighed a piece casually. A bright yellow corner was revealed under the scattered crumbs. He was stunned for a moment and put the pastry back.

"It seems that Lord Gu still doesn't know the purpose of my visit." Li Zhao casually threw the cakes on the ground, stepped on them without hesitation, pointed at the gold on the ground and asked: "Lord Gu, are you asking me, or..."

"Are you insulting me?"

"Lord Li, calm down!" Gu Shangjie stood up from his seat at once, "It's all your fault. I didn't give clear instructions, so those servants acted on their own!"

"Don't worry, don't worry! I will investigate thoroughly!"

"It seems that I have misunderstood you, sir." Li Zhao regained his smile and patted his dirty hands. "Anyway, I have already sent this person here and drank this tea. If there is nothing else, I will not stay any longer."

"Oh, don't leave so quickly! It's rare for Lord Li to have time to come to my place, so you should give me face and stay to have a meal with me."

"No need to trouble you, Lord Li." Li Zhao stood up and was about to leave, but Gu Shangjie didn't care about etiquette and pressed Li Zhao's shoulder.

"Lord Li, this is not giving me face!" Gu Shangjie clapped his hands, and the few people who had not been there before came up with wine and delicacies. "I heard that Lord Li is also a passionate person who loves wine. How could this be a coincidence?"

"I just received a few jars of fine wine, but I have been reluctant to drink it. Lord Li, please drink with me today."

Li Zhao sniffed through the mud seal, his eyes instantly revealing an intoxicated look, "Good wine, good wine!"

"Master Li, please wait a moment. I have another bottle of treasure. Take it out and drink from it!"
