"Cheng'er, do you mean that there is another meaning to this reform?" After the shock, Li Yuan, as the most powerful person in the room, was the first to ask.

"hey-hey!"

Li Jiancheng thought he laughed freely, but in the eyes of others in the room, his laughter seemed very treacherous, giving people the impression of a wealthy landlord.

"Your Majesty, Your Highness the Crown Prince, the people of Tuyuhun have become dependent on the Central Plains things in their lives. Is there anything more powerful than this?" Pei Ji was slightly confused.

When asked, he was not the only one who had this question. Tang Jian, Dou Wei and others also felt it was very powerful.

This sounds like he is questioning Li Jiancheng's words.

"Master Pei, it sounds like you don't believe what I said." Li Jiancheng said in a strange tone. He had already remembered this old man before, but he didn't expect that he would dare to jump out and "send death" now.

"How dare I, veteran? It's just a bit unbelievable."

Although he said he didn't dare, the meaning behind his words was still a feeling of disbelief.

Li Jiancheng pinched his chin and gave a bad smile: "Looking at what Mr. Pei means, I still don't believe it. Then, how about I make a bet with Mr. Pei?"

"I actually really believe what His Highness the Crown Prince said, but I don't know how His Highness the Crown Prince wants to make a bet?"

Pei Ji always emphasized that he believed in Li Jiancheng's words, but the last sentence revealed his true thoughts.

Tang Jian, Dou Wei, and Liu Hongji all looked at Pei Ji helplessly.

This guy was good at everything, but he had a bit of a stubborn temper. He didn't really believe Li Jiancheng's words to begin with, but he was stimulated by Li Jiancheng's weird words, and he immediately stopped caring about everything.

However, they also felt that Li Jiancheng had little chance of winning.

"Haha, let's calculate it like this. Next, I will talk about the deeper impact of my return to the land. If it can have a greater impact, I will win; if it cannot have a greater impact than before, Pei will win.

My lord loses. How about..."

"good…"

When Pei Ji heard this, he agreed without even thinking about it.

"Hahaha…"

However, just as Pei Ji finished speaking, there was a burst of laughter in the room.

Pei Ji looked at everyone in confusion. Tang Jian, Dou Wei, and Liu Hongji did not look like ministers at this time. They were covering their stomachs with their hands and seemed to be laughing a little uncomfortable. Li Yuan sat at the top and grinned, although he wanted to laugh.

But the emperor's majesty must be preserved; as for Li Jiancheng and Li Shimin, they both had a faint smile on their lips, and it seemed that nothing could affect them.

Pei Ji looked at it in a daze, as if the two people standing in front of him were the future heirs to the throne.

Pei Ji was horrified. He immediately stopped the idea and calmed down, lest his idea be seen out and cause another bloody storm.

Trying to get rid of that thought, he looked at Tang Jian with puzzled eyes.

The two have been good friends for many years. They have been in the same palace since the Sui Dynasty. In addition, the Tang Dynasty has gone through two dynasties, and their children have intermarryed, so their relationship is still very good.

They could understand each other's meaning with just one glance, and Tang Jian quickly understood his mistake from his eyes.

No matter what Li Jiancheng said before, he will lose in the end. But he didn't listen clearly before and directly agreed, so he made such a joke.

"Ahem..."

Li Yuan coughed dryly, attracting everyone's attention, and said harmoniously: "Master Pei, the prince was just joking before, please don't take it to heart, Mr. Pei."

"Your Majesty is serious, how dare I do this?"

Tang Jian and the others shook their heads helplessly. Pei Ji was Pei Ji, and his stubborn temper would not change at all.

What he meant was that he didn't dare, not that he didn't want to. Because the person teasing him was the prince, he didn't dare to have any opinions. If someone else teased him, as for what the consequences would be, he wanted to go...

Tang Jian and others thought, His Majesty is as wise as he is now, otherwise if he had been a more cruel one, Pei Ji would have been killed long ago.

The emperor personally offered to reconcile with you, but you still don't appreciate it. You really treat yourself like an onion.

Moreover, although the prince is very powerful, he is still a good person. He does not have a bad temper, and he will not kill people easily.

Of course, no one knows whether Li Jiancheng is the same as Yang Guang.

After all, when Yang Guang was not the prince, he also accepted good advice and was gentle, and he would look like a wise monarch in the future. However, after Yang Jian left, he began to act arbitrarily and violently, which eventually caused all the heroes in the world to rise and fall.

The first difference.

"Haha, Mr. Pei, it was built incorrectly before. I apologize to you here."

His old man kept winking at him dissatisfiedly, so Li Jiancheng gave him some face and then came out to apologize. Otherwise, based on Pei Ji's previous words and deeds, Li Jiancheng would not let Pei Ji go so easily.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is serious!"

Pei Ji said very humbly, but stood up straight and accepted Li Jiancheng's apology calmly.

You will feel better later, Li Jiancheng cursed in his heart.

"Okay, Cheng'er, you said you were making a bet with Mr. Pei earlier, and my husband and several adults are also very curious. How about we be your witnesses?"

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Pei Ji looked so grateful that he almost knelt down in excitement.

Li Jiancheng despised Pei Ji in his heart and had no integrity at all, but he still said: "Since dad, you and several ministers are witnesses, I am really grateful."

Li Jiancheng said it nicely, but looking at his expression, he didn't seem to care.

"Haha, everyone is happy with this, but I wonder what the bet between you and Master Pei is, Cheng'er. Let us also join in."

Li Yuan said with a smile, no wonder he is so active and wants to participate emotionally.

"Since Your Majesty is involved, we, as ministers, will naturally follow in His Majesty's footsteps." Tang Jian, Dou Wei and Liu Hongji said with great righteousness, as if they had given everything for Li Yuan.

"Shimin, do you want to add one too?"

Li Jiancheng turned around and saw Li Shimin frowning in thought, so he immediately asked.

"Since the eldest brother invites you, then Shimin will add a portion!" Li Shimin's elegant face showed no fluctuation in expression. It seemed as if he was talking about an ordinary thing.

"Okay, let's talk about your bet with Cheng'er and Master Pei first."

Looking at Li Yuan's impatient look, he seemed to be more excited than the two parties involved, Li Jiancheng and Pei Ji. If an uninformed person saw it, they would think that Li Yuan was the victim.

Pei Ji frowned, lowered his head and thought for a while. After a while, he raised his head and said loudly and forcefully: "If the old minister is lucky enough to win, then His Royal Highness will go to the old minister's house to work for a few days."

Tang Jian and others' mouths twitched, because this guy was the only one who dared to make such a request.

However, this matter is really not something they can participate in. At the moment, they all showed indifferent expressions, which directly showed that they had nothing to do with this matter.

Li Jiancheng was also stunned, and then he felt angry. He didn't even find fault before. This old guy started to find fault. It didn't seem disgusting, but he couldn't do it if he was disgusted.

"In that case, as Mr. Pei said, let's talk about my prince's bet. I have been sleeping alone recently, and I found out after thinking hard for a long time. It turns out that I am missing someone to warm my bed..."

Everyone present was confused as to how Hao Hao got involved in this, but Li Jiancheng quickly made them understand what all this was about.

"I heard that Mr. Pei has a granddaughter who is virtuous and intelligent. She can write poems in five steps and write essays in six steps. She can know the world's major events in seven steps. If I win, Mr. Pei will let this granddaughter go to the prince's house to warm my bed. How about that?

"

"puff…"

Li Yuan, who was drinking tea from a cup, suddenly heard this and finally couldn't hold it back. He spit out all the tea in one sip, and the emperor's majesty was completely lost.

However, fortunately, there was no one in front of Li Yuan, otherwise the guy would have been in bad luck.

Dou Wei, Liu Hongji, and Li Shimin also twitched their mouths after hearing Li Jiancheng's words, but they were afraid that Pei Ji's face would look ugly, so they held back their laughter.

As for Pei Ji, he was stunned at first, and then showed a look of shared hatred on his face.

For no other reason than because the granddaughter of Pei Ji that Li Jiancheng mentioned was the daughter of an intermarriage between Tang Jian and Pei Ji. In other words, Pei Ji's granddaughter was also his granddaughter.

"you…"

Pei Ji pointed his right hand at Li Jiancheng, and kept beating his chest with his left hand. His whole face was as red as Guan Yu's. It seemed that he was indeed very angry with Li Jiancheng.

"Prince, you are so ridiculous. Why don't you apologize to Master Pei quickly?"

Li Yuan said with a straight face and seriously. Pei Ji is also the Minister of Humerus after all. If Li Jiancheng is so angry that his body is broken, then the gain will outweigh the loss.

"Your Majesty, wait!"

However, before Li Jiancheng could speak, Pei Ji jumped out and stopped Li Jiancheng. This made everyone extremely puzzled. What did Pei Ji want to do?

"Your Highness, I agree to your proposal."

"this…"

Not only Li Jiancheng, but also everyone in the room except for Pei Ji himself, all looked puzzled. Could it be that Pei Ji was confused by anger?

Of course, Pei Ji was not actually confused by anger and was still very conscious.

Originally, he proposed the bet earlier, thinking that if he won in the end, as long as Li Jiancheng apologized to him, he would not care about anything. After all, Li Jiancheng was still the prince, could he really let him work in his house?

That way, he won't feel at ease either.

However, the bet proposed by Li Jiancheng immediately angered Pei Ji.

Although his child gave birth to a girl, he still loved her very much. When Li Jiancheng said this, he immediately stopped caring about everything. When he won over Li Jiancheng, he must make sure that this guy would serve his granddaughter well for a few days.

After Pei Ji finished speaking, Tang Jian followed.

"Since Mr. Pei agrees, I will bet that Mr. Pei will win. I have a pair of precious emerald horses from the Shang and Zhou dynasties in my home, so that will be my bet. If His Highness the Crown Prince wins, the emerald horse will belong to His Highness; if Pei
