Chapter 497

Within the ancestral hall, hundreds of people were shocked.

Li Jin and Li he lowered their heads together, as if they had no face to see people. At this moment, the conditions they had moved out before turned into jokes and children's house.

Especially Ricky, his face is getting worse and worse.

In the face of such a situation, I was not surprised or flustered. I still maintained a leisurely attitude and said faintly: "the prince can stand here today is the best explanation. You must accept it whether you believe it or not, and the prince doesn't need anyone to be convinced!"

Gradually, the uproar turned into silence, and the whole ancestral temple became silent.

The old man sighed inexplicably. When he was about to speak, a man came into the door of the ancestral temple and gently pressed Li Ji's shoulder, calming him instantly and showing strong hope at the bottom of his eyes.

Come on, it's... Li Qinghao!

"Li Shaobai, you really have the strength to become the prince, but the matter in the South has not come to an end. Why should the old man be in a hurry? Since Li Shaobai said to destroy Tianmen within a month, it's better to wait until he destroys it. A rash decision will only make people think that the old man is partial to you. " Li Qinghao said.

I narrowed my eyes. I didn't expect Li Qinghao to come at such a moment. The reason why he said so was to delay time and find a way to fight back within a month, so that I couldn't be crown prince.

However, the current situation is very favorable to me. I don't need to be afraid of anyone at all. Li Qinghao's strategy of slowing down the troops may not be useful.

"In that case, for the sake of fairness, do as you say." Said the old man.

Li Qinghao smiled and nodded decisively, "thank you for your success."

"Let's go and come to a conclusion in a month." The old man waved his hand.

But suddenly, Li Qinghao took three steps forward, looked at me with a smile and said, "wait, Li Shaobai, do you dare to bet with me? Let the old man be a notary? "

"Bet? How do you want to bet? " I gently raised my eyebrows and secretly said that the other party must have no good intentions.

Sure enough, Li Qinghao immediately smiled more and seemed to be confident, saying, "if you can't destroy the Tianmen gate within a month, you'll never compete for the throne of Prince and can only be the eldest grandson, how about it?"

"You're a little too good at calculating, aren't you? Just say the result of my loss, not the price of your loss? " I smiled. Everything was under control. Li Qinghao would never allow me to become the prince for Li Ji.

Li Qinghao paused, as if thinking about the right bet, without immediately telling his conditions.

"Let me talk about the gambling appointment. If you lose, how about stripping Li Ji's son identity and becoming a servant of the Li family?" I glanced around and finally fell on Li Ji. I thought that Li Qinghao would not agree to too many conditions. I might as well brush with his straw bag son.

"Absolutely not!" Li Qinghao glared and directly rejected it. He seemed to care about his careless son.

It's... it's a deep father's love.

Even I can't bear it.

But from another angle, will Li Qinghao have the heart for me?

The answer is impossible. I have threatened him since I revealed my identity, and it is also a roadblock for his careless son's future.

I couldn't help shaking my head, pretending to like gambling or not, and said with a smile: "just allow me to strip away the opportunity to compete for the crown prince, and don't strip away the identity of Li Ji's son of God? Can't a prince compete with a prince? If I don't gamble, I won't lose anything anyway. "

"Well, it's OK. That's it. If you can't finish it within a month, you can't compete for the crown prince. If I lose, Li Ji will automatically resign as a prince." Li Qinghao's face changed. It seemed that he was really worried that I wouldn't gamble with him, but he agreed immediately.

"Father! How? What if you really lose? " Ricky panicked.

Li Qinghao looked back and looked at Li Ji with a very positive look. "With me, I won't lose. There is no doubt that Li Shaobai will lose this time. The crown prince will always be yours, and no one can take it away."

At this time, the old man stood up, "now that I have made a bet, I can be a witness. Let's go."

With that, the old man waved again, and the people present began to disperse one by one.

Soon, there were only a few people left in the ancestral temple.

Li Qinghao stared at me and said coldly, "Li Shaobai, I didn't expect you to hide so deeply that I almost fell for you. But this time, you're not so lucky. Even if you exceed the deadline for one day, you'll lose!"

"Yes, Li Shaobai, don't be complacent too early. You'll regret it then." Ricky made a cruel remark.

I frowned. "Ricky? What did you say? "

"I said, you will regret it sooner or later. You will lose in the hands of our father and son." Ricky's face was full of resentment.

After listening to this, I raised my pace in silence and slapped Li Ji in the face of Li Qinghao. "Your father is qualified to say this, but you are a little son of a noble, and you can't be presumptuous in front of me."

Li Ji covered his hot face, his throat seemed stuck, and he couldn't speak.

"You!" Li Qinghao was angry, but he couldn't blame me. After all, Li Ji was really wrong. The slap in the face actually slapped Li Qinghao's heart.

But in the twinkling of an eye, Li Qinghao resisted his anger, waved his sleeves vigorously, turned and left, "ki'er, let's go."

"You wait." Li Ji was so angry that he could only stamp his feet and leave with Li Qinghao's steps.

...

On the same day, I was arranged by my mother to stay in the unknown courtyard. It was rare to sit at the same table with the old man and have a reunion dinner.

The old man didn't have any superfluous words. He brought me vegetables from time to time and gradually piled them into a small vegetable mountain, full of deep love.

I didn't say much. I just bowed my head to eat and ate all the dishes that the old man had sandwiched himself.

Halfway through the meal, my mother suddenly shook her head and murmured, "there's still someone missing..."

I picked up the food silently and didn't know what to say.

The old man took a sip of soup and sighed, "he has his decision. As long as Shaobai's identity is not involved with nameless, it's enough. It's just... I'm worried and look forward to his real strength now."

"Or I'll go back to him?" My mother put down her chopsticks and looked very worried.

"No, since he's back, he won't go to him again. I believe he will come back one day." The old man raised his hand and shook his head in denial.

Speaking of this, the old man turned his face and looked at me deeply, "Shaobai, after today's incident came out, you must be famous. If you want to be a prince, you must be tough. There are so many things I can help you. The rest depends on your own wisdom."

"But since the name of the eldest grandson will spread all over China, anyway, with the help of the China Sea, you might as well make it bigger and let everyone know that you are the eldest grandson of Li Tianxing and the future Prince of the Li family."

"As for how to make trouble, think for yourself."
