Chapter 233 Taking a dump on the emperor's head and then asking the emperor for toilet paper.
"Damn! You're going to hog all the good food? Leave some for me!"
Below, the green-haired tortoise swiftly transformed into a blur and leaped onto the imperial desk.
Its claws pawed and scattered the neatly arranged memorials and imperial seals, then it swallowed the remaining half bunch of grapes in Li Wudao's hand whole, without even spitting out the seeds.
The green-haired turtle licked its lips with lingering satisfaction, then kicked off with its hind legs and lightly jumped to the empty space next to Li Wudao, leaving four clear muddy claw prints.
It yawned widely, oblivious to its surroundings, as if the throne, symbolizing supreme power, was merely a temporary shelter for a nap.
"This...this is outrageous!!"
"Sacrifice! This is blasphemy against imperial power! Where are the laws and regulations of our ancestors?!"
"How dare these beasts trample upon the imperial desk! How can a turtle sleep soundly beside the dragon throne?!"
"I'm furious! This is an unprecedented disgrace since the founding of our Great Yu Dynasty!"
Upon witnessing this scene, the courtiers were all so enraged that they beat their chests and stamped their feet, their beards trembling as if their faith had collapsed.
The dignity they had previously lost in front of the Liang Dynasty delegation seemed to be repeatedly rubbed into the ground by this man and the tortoise, causing them great pain and indignation.
The Liang Dynasty delegation's expressions were not much better.
They had traveled all over the country and seen arrogant people, but they had never seen anyone so arrogant, domineering, and unscrupulous.
This young man completely disregards imperial power, treating the solemn court as his own backyard. Is he not afraid of pushing the royal family too far and having his entire family executed at any cost?
As for Emperor Li Jing, upon seeing this scene, he was so angry that he trembled violently, his eyes turned red, and his eyes seemed to be about to burst!
Deceiving too much!
First they killed his personal eunuch, then they seized his throne. Now even a turtle dares to leave its claw mark on his throne!
How could he, a ruler of a nation, possibly save face?!
In particular, his last shred of imperial dignity was trampled to pieces in front of the covetous Liang Dynasty delegation!
At this moment, the resentment and murderous intent he felt towards the white-robed youth were overwhelming!
He suppressed the murderous intent that was about to burst forth, glared at the "usurper" youth, and shouted in a deep voice:
"Your Excellency has trespassed into the palace, caused chaos in the court, murdered close attendants, and desecrated the dragon throne. You deserve to die!"
"Don't think that just because you have some strength, I can't do anything to you!"
By the end, his voice trembled slightly with extreme anger.
But then Li Wudao casually spat the grape seeds onto the table and chuckled softly.
"Ha, you're absolutely right. You dog emperor, you've sent people to kill me time and time again, even mobilizing an army of 100,000, but what was the result?"
He pointed to himself, a bright smile on his face, "I'm still as lively and energetic as ever, with a great appetite. On the contrary, your people are dying one after another."
The laughter was filled with undisguised sarcasm.
Upon hearing this, Li Jing's expression changed drastically.
Then, his eyes flashed with a look of shock and uncertainty as he stared intently at Li Wudao, "You...you are the one who harmed my Sheng'er, the villain who killed the Marquis of Zhennan and the Minister of War?!"
His heart was in turmoil, and he could not calm down.
Previously, when Shen Huaimin led 100,000 imperial guards back in defeat and reported that this young man's strength was no less than his own, he scoffed at it.
They assumed this was just an excuse Shen Huaimin made up to avoid contributing and to secretly amass power for a rebellion.
Unexpectedly, the rumors were not only true, but they were probably also being withheld from the truth!
Judging from the fact that this young man was able to single-handedly break into the heavily guarded palace and casually kill the top eunuch in his entourage, it's clear that...
This young man's strength is terrifying; he is probably no less than Shen Huaimin!
His eyes flickered, feeling utterly absurd and unbelievable.
At such a young age, he possesses enough combat power to shake the foundation of a dynasty. Even Shen Ming, the Qilin Zi of the Shen family, who is hailed as the number one genius of the Great Yu, is obviously no match for him!
However, according to the intelligence he possessed, Li Jing's lineage had always been of mediocre talent, and their offspring were getting worse with each generation, with some even dying young or becoming mentally disabled.
By the time of Li Wudao's generation, they had become just another ordinary person, with no presence in the royal family.
How come this kid has changed so much in just a few years, his talent has become countless times more terrifying than Shen Ming's?
This is not common sense at all!
Li Jing suppressed the various thoughts and confusion in his mind, his face ashen, his killing intent surging like a tidal wave, and he said hatefully:
"I never imagined that you, you madman, would be so audacious as to commit such a heinous crime, and instead of hiding, you dare to appear before me!"
"I know you have some abilities, but this is the Imperial Palace! Even a dragon must coil up before me here! Even a tiger must lie down before me!"
"Today, even if it means shaking the foundations of the nation, at any cost, I will surely execute you, this lawless madman, right here and now! To uphold the law of the land!"
"Where are the Imperial Guards?!"
Li Jing suddenly looked up and roared fiercely towards the outside of the hall, "Kill this madman without mercy! Tear him to pieces!"
The sound echoed through the empty hall, yet...
Outside the hall, all was deathly silent; no one responded for a long time.
Li Jing's face instantly stiffened and turned extremely ugly, as if he had been slapped in the face in public.
He suppressed his humiliation and anger, and once again shouted in a deep voice, "Guards!"
"Where are they?! Where have they all gone?!"
He shouted several times in a row, and just as his face turned from blue to purple, he was about to lose control and completely explode.
Outside the hall, a series of slightly disordered and somewhat slow footsteps finally came.
A troop of about two hundred imperial guards, led by a commander, arrived late.
Leading the group was none other than Zhao Yi, the commander surnamed Zhao who had "wisely" retreated outside the palace gates earlier.
"Your Majesty... Your Majesty, please forgive me! I am late and have startled you!"
Zhao Yi strode into the hall, knelt on one knee, feigning surprise, and quickly peeked out to scan the scene inside.
When his gaze fell upon the gruesome, decapitated corpse of the chief eunuch on the ground, his pupils involuntarily contracted sharply.
When he caught a glimpse of the white-robed youth loftily reclining on the dragon throne out of the corner of his eye, he froze on the spot, his face contorted with bitterness, inwardly lamenting his misfortune.
He knew that with this ominous star around, the court would likely not be peaceful today.
But little did he know that the upheaval would be so violent and so direct!
In front of the entire court and the enemy delegation, he openly executed the emperor's confidant, trampled on the emperor's dignity, and even... sat directly on the dragon throne!
This is like defecating on the emperor's head and then having to borrow toilet paper from him!
Li Jing's face turned as red as a pig's liver, and he wished he could slap Zhao Yi, who was pretending to be stupid, to death!
Anyone who isn't blind can see what happened here, so why would they dare ask him?
He had reason to suspect that the other party was deliberately humiliating him!
Immediately, Li Jing's eyes narrowed slightly, a hint of doubt flashing across them, and he questioned, "I remember that you weren't in charge of guarding and patrolling the palace today, were you? Where is Commander Cao Xuan?"
Zhao Yi's heart skipped a beat, but he remained outwardly calm and quickly explained:
"Your Majesty, it is like this... Lord Cao... he drank with his colleagues last night and accidentally drank too much. He is still drunk and has not yet woken up."
"When I heard His Majesty's urgent summons, I feared something serious had happened, so I immediately brought my men here."
"I remember that Cao Xuan has always had an excellent capacity for alcohol..."
Li Jing frowned, his mind filled with doubts.
But the situation was urgent, and he didn't have time to think it over. He immediately ordered in a cold voice, "Fine! Since you're here, that's good!"
"Arrest this madman who has caused chaos in the court, murdered a close attendant, and desecrated imperial authority! Execute him on the spot without mercy!"
