Seeing this, the high priest wanted to stop him, but it was too late. Without waiting for any more words, Li Bai picked up the poisonous wine and drank it with a "gulp". In the moment, the high priest was so scared that he was trembling, and he felt so scary that he was terrified. Looking at the post in his hand, he looked at Li Bai in front of him and thought, "Oh! It's so bad!" The high priest knew more than anyone that the old king of Kucha seemed to be good at Buddha, but in fact he was ambitious and had always been living in the surrounding cities. However, because of the rule of Shang Tang, Kucha had no excuse to start a war against the other countries.

Now, Li Bai's drinking of this poisonous wine is not ordinary. It contains a murderous poisonous poison. If he drinks it, he cannot be taken out of his body. Within three days, his whole body will become ulcerated and turn into blood and die. Now, Kucha can use Li Bai's death as a reason to attack the Turks under the banner of revenge and openly attack the Turks.

Li Ke and Yue Wa also felt trembling in their hearts. Thinking that Li Bai's rebellion against the king now was a crime of disrespect and the whole family would suffer. Only Hou Gui stood beside him with a foolish look on his face, not knowing what the situation was at this time, and he couldn't speak up if he wanted to say anything, for fear of causing trouble. But out of concern, he wanted to step up to Li Bai to comfort him. However, at this moment, Li Bai's poisonous wine just finished drinking, glared at the crowd, and asked, "Are you happy now? Humph!"

After saying that, he raised his hand, used force, and let go of his hand again. He suddenly fell heavily to the ground with the sound of "clang" and it immediately scattered all over the ground, which scared everyone present. Especially Li Ke and Yue Wa, who thought that the crime was even more serious, and the entire Li family would suffer completely.

The atmosphere instantly became solemn, no one spoke, and he didn't know how to speak. The high priests who dressed as kings, Li Ke, Yuewa, Hou Gui, or the civil servants and generals who sat in the banquet all looked at them in surprise, not knowing what to do.

In this room, Li Bai broke the jade cup and stopped talking, nor did he pay attention to Yuewa and Li Ke. He suddenly made a loud whistle at Yeye Changkong, and a 'crank' sound, like a big eagle clattering, like an eagle hitting the sky, very mad and overwhelming. Then, not long after, the white-haired brocade rat flew over from the edge of the sky and fell in front of everyone. So Li Bai spoke again and said, "Dad, mother, you go eat the moon by yourself! The child is back home!"

"Let's go! Sister Rat!"

After the sound came to an end, Li Bai jumped onto the rat's back and left.

Seeing this, Li Ke and Yue Wa did not stay long. On the grounds of worry, they said goodbye to the king and the civil officials and generals present, and chased Li Bai and walked quickly. Hou Gui had not left and could not leave. He had to wait to get the post of the king and he could only leave the Emperor's Palace the next day.

On the other hand, Li Bai rode out on the white-haired bran rat and did not say falsehood. However, as soon as he arrived, Li Bai locked himself in the study room. Not only did he lock it up, but he also moved some tables, chairs, and benches to block it. After Li Ke and Yuewa rushed back, they persuaded each other with kind words or apologized, and Li Bai refused to listen and his ears were blocked. Li Ke and Yuewa had no choice but to withdraw. After confirming that Li Bai did not disturb him, he wanted to wait until Li Bai calmed down and then talk.

But unexpectedly, Li Bai hid for three days, and it was not easy for anyone to persuade him, and Hou Gui was the same. In the end, Li Bai ran out of the study himself. The reason was very simple, he was hungry. Although Li Ke and Yue Wa delivered food and drink to Li Bai every day, and they were both Li Bai’s favorite food, the portion was insufficient. He just made a stomachache, and he was not full, and he couldn’t get hungry. So Li Ke sent someone to set up a stove outside the study and cooked various delicious soups for temptation. In the end, Li Bai couldn’t bear it, so he slipped out.

"Bai'er!" Seeing that, Li Ke quietly rushed behind Li Bai and asked, "Are you still angry with your father and mother?"

"Hmph! No!" Li Bai said this, but he didn't think so in his heart. While sitting on the ground drinking soup, he said, "I just can't figure out why my father and mother forced me to do what I didn't want to do? I thought about it for three days but couldn't figure it out!"

"Bai'er is the time and the environment. How many people can do whatever they want in life?" Li Ke gave up his own blame and sighed a little sadly: "If Bai'er, if you don't drink that day, it would be like disrespectful to the king. He has the right to be in his hands and can kill our Li family at any time. You must know that Bai'er, in the face of that supreme power, people like us are just ants and chess pieces!"

Li Bai didn't speak and continued to drink the soup with relish, but a trace of turbulence appeared in his heart, as if he understood something. At this moment, Yuewa suddenly looked hurried and rushed from outside the yard to Li Bai, worried and crying, and asked, "Bai'er, Bai'er, are you okay? Do you feel uncomfortable in your heart? Tell your mother quickly, hurry up!"

"Madam!" Li Ke was stunned when he saw this. He felt that Yuewa's expression was wrong, so he asked, "What's wrong with you? Why are you so anxious? What happened?"

Yuewa didn't return Li Ke, as if she didn't hear him, continued to watch Li Bai shouting anxiously, calling Li Bai himself in a daze. At this moment, Hou Gui rushed over and said, "Master, let me talk."

"Hou Gui!" Li Ke was anxious: "What a big deal happened? Why is the wife so anxious and sad?"

"By the master, something is not good!" Hou Gui seemed to be afraid of being heard by Li Bai, so he leaned into Li Ke's ear and said, "The wine that the young master drank three days ago is poisonous!"

"Huh! Poisonous?" Li Ke was immediately frightened and asked anxiously: "This! How is this possible? Isn't that wine respected by the king? How could there be any poison in it?"

"Master, it's not the real king who toasts." Hou Gui, dun, said: "It's the high priest! She is still alive!"

"Huh!" Li Ke was shocked again and became even more anxious: "Hou Gui, don't keep it a secret. Tell me the whole story quickly, let me listen, hurry!"

"Master!" Hou Gui said, "Do you still remember the prayer letter from Lao Nu to the monarch? In order to ridicule the Turkic monarch, the King of Kucha specially asked Lao Nu to use the Tang seal script. Therefore, it is reasonable that the monarch should not understand it. After all, the Turkic monarch has regulations that the monarch cannot learn the Tang culture, especially the text. But that night the monarch reads the prayer letter without missing a word, clearly."

"Hiss!" Li Ke pondered.

"There is also the master!" Hou Gui said again: "I just received the news that the high priest had returned to the imperial palace."

"How is this possible?" Li Ke said unbelievably, "Even if the high priest is not dead, how could she dare to return to the palace? She flooded the Turks and killed so many people, how could the people let her go easily?"

"Master, she changed her appearance. This seems not a difficult task for the high priest." Hou Gui suddenly paused, took out a flying pigeon note from his arms, handed it to Li Ke, and said, "Master, look at this again!"

Li Ke took it and opened it. He stood up. He saw two lines of words written in the Turkic word on it, saying, "The high priest has changed his face and returned to the palace. The wine is poisonous. I quickly find someone to come to the doctor. I hope the little living Buddha will be fine."

"Is this?" Li Ke was shocked and said a little, "Hou Gui, who is the news? Is it conclusive?"

"Master, it's true." Hou Gui said in detail: "Because this note was sent by the monarch, the real monarch. The monarch sent someone to the sea boat to find the old slave, saying that he asked the old slave to bring some tribute to the king of Kucha. Unexpectedly, a servant secretly stuffed the note to the old slave, so the old slave quickly came to report. As soon as he entered the door, he met his wife."

"This! Alas!"

Li Ke didn't know what to say, so he quickly turned around and rushed outside the study room to see if Li Bai was seriously injured. However, he had just arrived, and before he could ask, Li Bai's eyes suddenly looked up, then his whole body trembled, and he fell to the ground immediately, curled his body and foamed at the mouth, trembling constantly, which made the three of them shocked.
