Chapter 262 What kind of beast is it that eats people?

Yu Youning looked at Tuoba Ruoli in surprise, "You already said it was a divine beast from Xiliang, not Dayong. Why wouldn't I dare to kick it? Besides, it was the one that pounced on me and wanted to bite me!"

"That's a divine beast!" Tuoba Ruoli's eyes widened. "Even if it wants to bite you to death, you can't kick it."

Yu Youning frowned, "Then let it try again! I'll kick it to death!"

What's wrong with people?

What happened to the divine beast?

Who says that when people face divine beasts, they can only wait to be bitten or wait to die?

Tuoba Ruoli was so angry at Yu Youning's attitude that her eyes turned red and she was about to explode.

She is now the Crown Princess of Xiliang, why is Yu Youning still so arrogant?

Why does Yu Youning still not take her seriously?

Thinking this in his heart, Tuoba Ruoli looked at Chu Huaixu, "Your Highness, is this how you treat guests in Dayong?"

Chu Huaixu smiled faintly, "Where are you, the guest? Aren't you from Xiliang the defeated party seeking peace? Besides, you came to the capital as if you have something to ask of us, to bring your parents back. Asking for help should be done in a proper manner. Are you prepared to do so in this manner?"

After hearing Chu Huaixu's words, Tuoba Ruoli's expression became even uglier than before.

Chu Huaixu didn't ask for help or not, it was obvious that he wanted to embarrass her in front of so many people.

Tuoba Ruoli wanted to turn around and leave, but this time, her parents had to pick her up.

Even if we don't take them back, we can't let them stay in Dayong's dungeon.

Otherwise, Xiliang would become a joke, and she, the crown princess of Xiliang, would also become a joke.

It was impossible to leave, so Tuoba Ruoli could only grit her teeth, suppress her anger, and lower the curtain.

At this moment, something fell from the sky at a high speed, hitting the roof of the carriage heavily, and then fell from the roof to the ground.

It was not until this time that everyone saw clearly that the thing that fell to the ground was the divine beast Qiongqi of Xiliang.

As a ferocious beast, Qiongqi has a great reputation.

But at this moment, Qiongqi only looked funny and had nothing to do with being ferocious.

The feathers on its wings were scattered and its body looked like it had bald spots.

Some people in the crowd on both sides couldn't help laughing when they saw Qiongqi like this.

"What kind of mythical beast is this! It looks so funny!"

The person who spoke was a child, and sounded about the same age as Yu Youning and the others.

The child's mother quickly covered the child's mouth and scolded him in a low voice, "What nonsense are you talking about, kid! Stop talking nonsense!"

The woman had stopped him, but Qiongqi still looked over angrily.

It stood up from the ground and walked towards the child, staring at the child without blinking.

Being stared at by it with such eyes, the child was frightened so much that his face turned pale and his body was shaking constantly.

The mother standing by was also frightened and her face was pale, but she did not dodge. Instead, she held the child in her arms.

Qiongqi was about to move forward when he suddenly felt a pain in his tail, and he flapped his wings and shot up.

It looks like a cat with its tail stepped on.

Crazy, angry, but helpless.

It struggled violently, but to no avail.

Yu Youning was stepping hard on its tail, making it unable to move at all.

When Tuoba Ruoli saw this scene, she immediately ran out of the carriage, jumped to the ground, trotted over, and reached out to push Yu Youning.

Chu Huaixu saw all of this and stood in front of Yu Youning before Tuoba Ruoli touched her.

Tuoba Ruoli pointed at Yu Youning and said, "Your Highness, it was Yu Youning who stepped on Qiongqi's tail! After all, she is wrong this time, isn't she?"

"What is Qiongqi planning to do?" Chu Huaixu asked instead of answering.

Tuoba Ruoli didn't think twice and said directly, "These two lowly people actually dared to laugh at the divine beast in public. The divine beast will naturally eat these two ignorant guys."

When the mother and son heard this, they hugged each other and trembled even more violently.

Just because they smiled, you have to eat them?

What kind of mythical beast is this?

How could a mythical beast eat humans?

Chu Huaixu looked at Tuoba Ruoli coldly, "Qiongqi can eat the people of Xiliang at will?"

Tuoba Ruoli raised his chin high, "Of course! Qiongqi is a divine beast! With Qiongqi around, Xiliang will only get better and better. The people of Xiliang are protected by Qiongqi, so naturally they have to contribute their strength to Qiongqi.

Like those untouchables, who were born inferior, all they can do for Qiongqi is to offer their lives and bodies when Qiongqi wants to eat! "

Chu Huaixu's eyes were even colder than before. "You are already the Crown Princess of Xiliang. Those people are your subjects. Why don't you protect them?"

"Why should I protect them?" Tuoba Ruoli asked back, "As the Crown Princess of Xiliang, the future Empress, I have the entire Xiliang to worry about. How can I make Qiongqi unhappy just for a few lowly people like them? Your Highness, you don't understand that people are divided into different classes from the moment they are born, right?"

Hearing Tuoba Ruoli's question, Chu Huaixu said nothing.

If you don't agree, there's no need to talk too much.

Chu Huaixu just stood in front of Yu Youning and had no intention of moving away.

"If you don't protect the people of Xiliang, that's your business."

"But this is Dayong, and everyone here is from Dayong!"

"As the Crown Prince of Dayong, I am responsible for protecting the safety of these people."

"As long as I am here, no one can bully these people, let alone take their lives."

Chu Huaixu's words were so powerful and reasonable that the people present were very excited.

They really didn't expect that Chu Huaixu would protect them with such a tough attitude.

The people were deeply moved and knelt down with red eyes.

Although not a word was said, the silence at this moment was better than a thousand words.

Tuoba Ruoli was stunned at first when she saw this scene, but her expression soon turned sour.

She was not stupid, so she naturally saw that because of what had just happened, Chu Huaixu had won the hearts of the people.

Not only did he win the hearts of the people of Dayong, but even the expressions of the Xiliang delegation became somewhat subtle.

After seeing this scene, Tuoba Ruoli looked at Chu Huaixu with a different look in his eyes.

Chu Huaixu has also changed!

The previous Chu Huaixu would not have won the hearts of the people in this way.

Sure enough, it was because he had been with someone like Yu Youning for a long time that he came up with so many conspiracies and tricks, and even wanted to plot against her.

Tuoba Ruoli suppressed her displeasure and ignored Chu Huaixu, staring only at Yu Youning. "Now, can you lift your feet up?"

"Sure!" Yu Youning said, retracting his foot.

Qiongqi, who had finally gained freedom, remained motionless.

Tuoba Ruoli quickly picked up Qiongqi, thinking that Qiongqi was unhappy and didn't think anything else.

Yu Youning looked at Qiongqi and said, "If you dare to eat people in Dayong and I find out, I will boil you."

Qiongqi's body trembled.

This shocked Tuoba Ruoli immensely.

What's going on?

Is Qiongqi...scared?

But how is this possible?

Qiongqi is a divine beast!

How could the divine beast be afraid of Yu Youning?

It must be her illusion!

Tuoba Ruoli thought so in her heart, and got on the carriage holding Qiongqi.

As an envoy from Xiliang, it was naturally impossible for them to stay in the imperial palace, but they had to stay in the royal inn.

The house has been tidied up. It is not only clean and tidy, but also decorated very gorgeously.

But even so, Tuoba Ruoli's eyes were still full of criticism.

"Is this the way Dayong treats guests? They let me stay in a place like this?"

Chu Huaixu looked at Tuoba Ruoli calmly, "Do you have a bad memory? I just said that you are not a guest of Dayong. Even if you are a guest, don't you know the saying that the guest should follow the host's wishes?"

After being scolded by Chu Huaixu again, Tuoba Ruoli was numb.

I've been criticized too many times today!

"Your Highness, please go back. I'm tired and need to rest."

Chu Huaixu nodded and said, "I just happen to have other things to do, so I'll leave now."

Just leave without any hesitation or dragging your feet.

Looking at Chu Huaixu's departing back, Tuoba Ruoli was angry and annoyed, and immediately went to see Qiongqi.

Qiongqi was sleeping in a soft nest. When he heard Tuoba Ruoli approaching, he didn't even look up, let alone open his eyes.

"Qiongqi, are you angry?" Tuoba Ruoli asked softly, "Do you want me to call two people over to feed you?"

After hearing this, the palace maid serving nearby felt her legs go weak and she almost fell to the ground.

The Crown Princess allowed Qiongqi to eat people so much. Would it be possible that one day it would eat her, the maidservant who served her?

If Qiongqi wanted to eat her, the Crown Princess would definitely not have any objection.

By that time, the Crown Prince of Dayong would not come to rescue her!

The clearer you are about this, the more afraid you will be.

His body was shaking like a sieve.

At this moment, Qiongqi raised his eyelids and looked at Tuoba Ruoli with some impatience.

Tuoba Ruoli thought Qiongqi was just sulking because of what happened before, so she immediately said to the maidservant, "What are you still standing there for? Hurry up and let the 'food' come over."

The so-called meal was specially brought from Xiliang for Qiongqi to enjoy.

Tuoba Ruoli likes to call them "fan".

Just from this one word, it can be seen that these people are not considered human beings in Tuoba Ruoli's eyes, let alone the people of Xiliang that she wants to protect.

In her eyes, these were just Qiongqi's rations.

Can a man who treats his own people as food for the divine beasts really love his people as his own children even if he really ascends the throne?

What is she fighting for, the country or herself?

The palace maid was horrified and worried, but she did not dare to hesitate at all.

Previously, a palace maid was given to Qiongqi as "food" because she hesitated for a moment.
