There is a happy inn in the capital.

Chapter 240 Headshot Leaves Blood

Li Shuchen burst into laughter: "Hahaha, I know I'm a good cook, and everyone loves my dishes, but Yuying, you don't need to praise me like that. I'm easily embarrassed."

Liang Yuying smiled and said, "Zizhu, open the wine."

Once the yellow-sealed wine is opened, its fragrance travels for miles.

Li Shuchen closed her eyes and took a deep breath. Mmm~, so fragrant! This smells so good, she'll surely be rich and powerful.

Princess Changning, smelling the aroma, climbed the ladder again and asked, "Li Shuchen, what have you been secretly eating behind my back again?"

Li Shuchen happily walked out of the house and waved to Princess Changning: "Changning, come quickly! I've prepared a table full of dishes. Let's celebrate Yuying's triumphant return!"

Princess Changning was delighted to hear this and said, "They've arrived! Wait for me!"

Then Princess Changning descended the ladder, and Li Shuchen leaped into Gu Ziying's courtyard, shouting loudly...

"Ziying, come to my house for dinner! We'll treat Yuying to a welcome-back feast!"

Gu Ziying walked out of the house with a smile: "Okay."

Li Shuchen pulled Gu Ziying into his main house.

Princess Changning had already sat down and looked at the three jars of wine on the table, saying, "Yellow Seal Wine? No wonder my uncle the Emperor said he didn't have any when I asked him for some; it turns out he gave them all to Yuying."

Li Shuchen sat down and asked, "Have all the rewards been given to Yuying?"

Princess Changning nodded: "Yes, this Huangfeng wine was only brewed a few days ago, and there are only three jars left in total."

Upon hearing this, Li Shuchen hurriedly said, "Yuying, why did you bring everything? This wine is so precious and rare; you should keep a jar for yourself!"

Liang Yuying smiled nonchalantly and said, "If you like to drink it, you can drink it all."

Princess Changning crossed her arms and said, "Hey, Yuying, you're wrong about that. I like to drink it too, so why haven't you given me a jar?"

Liang Yuying gave an awkward laugh and said, "Everyone's here today, let's enjoy the food together and drink to our hearts' content."

Gu Ziying: "That's natural."

Li Shuchen raised his glass and said, "Let's congratulate Yuying on her triumphant return."

Congratulations Yuying*4

Princess Changning: "Congratulations to Ziying on being granted the title of Fifth-Rank County Lady by the Emperor."

Li Shuchen said happily, "Ziying, you've been promoted?"

Princess Changning: "That's right. Yu Ying's winter clothes for the war were all provided by Zi Ying. I mentioned it to my uncle, the Emperor, and he issued an edict promoting Zi Ying. Since you don't like these things, I didn't speak up for you."

Li Shuchen waved his hand and said, "That's perfect. I hate dealing with these kinds of things the most. Congratulations, Ziying!"

Congratulations Ziying*4

Li Shuchen: "Everyone, grab your chopsticks and try my new fried skewers today!"

Princess Changning: "Fried skewers? Is this the plate of golden food?"

Li Shuchen said proudly, "Yes, there are prawns, chili peppers, fresh mushrooms... I even made a sauce, it's absolutely delicious."

Gu Ziying: "Did Shu Chen coat these fresh mushrooms in flour before frying them?"

Li Shuchen looked at Gu Ziying with anticipation: "Yes, yes, is it delicious?"

Gu Ziying: "Of course Shu Chen's cooking is delicious!"

Princess Changning took a bite of the chili pepper and exclaimed in delight, "This fried chili pepper is so delicious! Li Shuchen, you're such a great cook!"

"Hehehe, you flatter me."

Liang Yuying kept her head down and ate without saying a word.

Li Shuchen couldn't help but ask, "Yuying, what do you think of my cooking?"

"Shu Chen's cooking suits my taste best. If fate allows, I hope to eat Shu Chen's cooking for the rest of my life."

Li Shuchen: "No problem, no problem, come on over."

Princess Changning said urgently, "I want one too! I want one too!"

Gu Ziying smiled slightly: "Shu Chen, don't forget me."

Li Shuchen waved his hand and said, "Don't worry, everyone. As long as I, Li Shuchen, am alive, if you want to eat my cooking, I will cook for you even if I'm eighty years old and leaning on a cane."

"Hahahahahaha" *4

Princess Changning: "By the way, the traitor will be paraded through the streets tomorrow. Are you going to go see it?"

Li Shuchen exclaimed happily, "I'll go! I'll go! I'm definitely going to see what happens to him!"

Liang Yuying: "Then I'll go with you."

Gu Ziying: "We can go directly to the Happiness Inn."

Li Shuchen clapped his hands and said, "Great! Great! I'll wake you up tomorrow morning."

"Good"*2

The next day, at the Three Treasures Hall of Happiness Inn

Li Shuchen opened the window and looked at the dense, bustling crowds on both sides of the road.

Wow, so many people are watching the white dog official being paraded through the streets!

Liang Yuying: "Treason is the most shameful and hateful thing."

Gu Ziying: "Yu Ying is right. Anyone who betrays the dynasty is going against all the people of the dynasty, and naturally, no one will tolerate such a person."

Princess Changning: "Li Shuchen, I've brought you the rotten eggs you wanted."

Li Shuchen grinned from ear to ear as he looked at the two baskets of rotten eggs, and then, with a sigh of relief, he put aside his grand ambitions.

"When that corrupt official arrives, I'll smash his head open."

A motorcade approached from afar, carrying a tall wooden cage containing a disheveled man, only his head visible. His white robe bore the large character for "prisoner," and a dozen soldiers stood guard on either side.

When the people on both sides of the road saw the man arrive, they became excited and began throwing filthy things at the ungrateful wretch—rotten eggs, rotten vegetable leaves, an endless stream.

Li Shuchen was no exception; standing at the window, he began throwing rotten eggs at him.

One, two, three

Princess Changning: "Li Shuchen, he's still more than ten zhang away. Do you think you can hit her?"

Li Shuchen replied as she threw the object, "Of course I can! Who am I? I'm Li Shuchen, the most powerful woman in the world. Ten zhang is nothing to me!"

Princess Changning: "Very good, very good, you're the best!"

Li Shuchen became more and more excited as he threw the ball, outputting more and more as he threw it.

"You bastard, I'll teach you to betray your country, I'll teach you to abuse your power for personal gain, I'll teach you to stop Yu Ying from becoming a general—I'll smash you until you're unconscious!"

Gu Ziying sipped her tea and said with a smile, "Shu Chen, be careful not to strain your back."

"Know it"

Princess Changning turned around and said, "Ziying, don't worry about her. She's full of energy every day, like an inexhaustible bull."

Liang Yuying sat at the table, looking at Li Shuchen with a smile in her eyes.

As the tour bus approached the Happiness Inn, Li Shuchen threw things even more enthusiastically.

Whoosh~, bang~

Whoosh~~, bang bang~~

Whoosh whoosh whoosh~~~, bang bang bang~~~

The rotten eggs she threw were all aimed at his head with incredible accuracy, and the green and black, foul-smelling liquid flowed all over the "ungrateful wretch's" head.

Princess Changning turned her face away in disgust; it was truly unbearable to watch, too nauseating.

Li Shuchen's barrage of words hadn't stopped; he continued, "A third-rank official, and you still think it's too low? You want to be the emperor? Why don't you just fly to the heavens? You even dare to collude with foreign powers to bully the dynasty! You heartless bastard, all those years the dynasty has raised you have been wasted!"

Whoosh whoosh whoosh~~~~, bang bang bang bang~~~~

Whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh~~~~~, bang bang bang bang bang~~~~~~

The faces of the people inside the tour bus were no longer recognizable; they were all covered in a strange-colored liquid.

As the tour bus drove further and further away, Li Shuchen finished throwing out his rotten eggs and venting his anger, and for some reason, his mood improved considerably.

I walked to the table, took a sip of tea, and calmed myself down.

Suddenly, a carrier pigeon flew in through the window and landed on Liang Yuying's arm.

She unfolded the note, read it, and a smile appeared on her lips.

Li Shuchen: "What did the note say?"
