Chapter 314 The Waste Who Climbed Up by Using a Woman's Skirt
Wu Jun cupped his hands and said respectfully, "In my humble opinion, the corpse that Deputy General Yan brought back yesterday was definitely not the real King Jin."
"Oh?" Wen Qi raised his eyebrows, his eyes indescribably strange, "Give me a reasonable reason."
Wu Jun didn't say anything, but just glanced meaningfully at Jiaojiao who was sitting next to him.
She was already upset about being humiliated in public, and now, meeting his gaze, she felt both embarrassed and annoyed, saying, "What are you looking at? If you keep looking, His Highness will gouge out your eyes!"
Wen Qi glanced at her and asked coldly, "Jiaojiao, do you also want to make the decision for me?"
Jiaojiao shuddered and quickly shook her head, saying, "Your Highness, please calm down. Jiaojiao wouldn't dare."
She reached out and gently tugged at Wen Qi's sleeve, tears in her eyes as she flattered him, "Jiaojiao is your Highness's person. How could she imitate those ignorant fools and cause trouble for your Highness?"
Catching the impatience in his eyes, she quickly suppressed her flattering expression and said arrogantly, "Such a lowly person dared to displease His Highness. It would be better to hand him over to me for disposal."
Wen Qi's expression eased slightly, and he raised his eyebrows with interest, "What do you want, Jiaojiao?"
"I will peel off their skins and make a kite for Your Highness."
Jiaojiao pouted and said with a look of disgust, "They have been exposed to the wind and sun here, so their skin must be very rough. I hope they don't wear out the dagger Your Highness gave me."
She looked cute and innocent, but her words were extremely vicious.
It really proves the saying that women have the most vicious hearts.
Wu Jun couldn't help but sigh in his heart, lowering his head and not daring to look again.
Jiaojiao passed by him and couldn't help but snorted coldly when she saw this. She said, "You're smart," and left the tent with her snake-like waist.
Seeing Wu Jun's desperate attempt to avoid suspicion, Wen Qi chuckled and said, "She's just a toy for people's amusement. Mr. Wu, don't take her seriously.
If you like it, I will send it to your tent tonight."
The State of Liang was different from the State of An. There were not so many red tapes to follow, especially in the army where people ate meat and drank wine with big mouthfuls. It was not uncommon for them to send women to each other's tents.
But when Wu Jun heard this, he felt a chill rushing from the soles of his feet to the top of his head. He quickly lifted his robe and knelt down.
He took off the dagger from his waist, raised his hands high, and said respectfully: "Your Highness, please take Wu's life."
"Why do you say that, Mr. Wu?"
"I just saw something I shouldn't have seen by mistake. Damn it."
"I'd rather not have these eyes!"
Wu Jun said this, and decisively pulled out the dagger and stabbed it towards his own eyes.
At the critical moment, he felt a sudden pain in his wrist, and the dagger in his hand lost its strength and fell heavily to the ground.
He opened his mouth and said bitterly, "Your Highness, why bother saving me?"
Wen Qi pulled the corners of his mouth, his smile tinged with coldness, "I treated Mr. Wu with sincerity, but I didn't want to see you kill yourself."
Wu Jun's heart sank.
Sure enough, the next moment he heard Wen Qi continue, "It's not difficult to die if you want to. Just do what I ask you to do, and I will reward you with a quick death."
In other words, if he fails to do what he is told, he will be in a state of being unable to live or die.
Wu Jun kowtowed respectfully to Wen Qi and asked, "Where is the body of His Royal Highness Prince Jin?"

"You're talking bullshit! His Highness Prince Jin is blessed by heaven. A group of wolf cubs wouldn't be enough for him to chop with two swords. If anyone dares to curse him here, don't blame me for not recognizing anyone with my sword!"
Cheng Duan finished speaking in one breath, and the whole room became unusually quiet.
If he hadn't opened his eyes wide and seen clearly, with a room full of people in front of him, he would even have suspected that he was talking to himself.
Seeing that they were silent, Cheng Duan suddenly became angry.
He asked, “Are you all dumb?
If it weren't for His Royal Highness Prince Jin's day and night defense in the past few years, the three northern cities would have been devoured by the hungry wolves of the Liang army long ago, and you wouldn't have been able to sit firmly in the general's mansion today!"
Cheng Duan's face flushed red as he rolled up his sleeves and said, "Now that His Royal Highness Prince Jin is trapped, you can sit still, but I can't.
If you don't save this person, Cheng will save him himself."
Before walking out, he said with disdain, "A bunch of cowards, combined they don't have as much courage as a woman."
Xu Xiao's expression turned even uglier when he heard this. He moved his lips and said, "Stop him."
"Let's see who dares!"
Cheng Duan shouted angrily, full of momentum.
The guards outside the door looked at each other in surprise, and were actually frightened by him.
Lin Tingfeng, who was standing nearby, managed to suppress the corner of his mouth that was about to turn upwards. He coughed lightly and said, "General Xu is also thinking about the overall situation. Why did General Cheng have to say such harsh words?"
Cheng Duan glared and asked with a sneer, "Did I forget to call you by name?"
Lin Tingfeng's face suddenly darkened. "Cheng Duan, you and I are on the same level. Please be polite when you speak."
"What a joke! I earned my position through hard work. How can you, a loser who climbed up by riding on a woman's skirt, be considered my equal?"
Without waiting for his rebuttal, Cheng Duan directly threw out a sentence, "If you have the guts, then have a fight in the martial arts arena. If you don't dare, then shut up and stop whining like a woman."
"You!" Lin Tingfeng's face flushed red, but he didn't dare to say anything harsh like him.
Everyone in Beijing knows that Cheng was born with supernatural powers. He started doing horse stance as soon as he walked back home, and he is a real martial arts fanatic.
Even in his prime, he might not be able to fight against it, not to mention that he had just been ill and had not yet recovered.
Lin Tingfeng's face was gloomy, and after a long while he managed to utter, "I am still recovering from my old illness. General Cheng, are you trying to win unfairly?"
Cheng Duan couldn't help but sneer, and said with contempt: "I was right to call you a waste."
"Cheng Duan, you..."
"Mr. Cheng, you are going too far!"
Everyone looked in the direction of the sound and saw Zhuang Shihan rushing in breathlessly, with her cheeks flushed, not sure if it was from running or from anger.
Just after she announced the effectiveness of the medicine she discovered yesterday, she couldn't wait to take off her veil in public. Now she had delicate light makeup on her face, making her look gentle.
Paired with a light blue dress, it has a bit of the flavor of orchids in the valley.
Although she is pretty, she doesn't look like her. Instead, she has some shadows of Song Yanxi.
Seeing her outfit, Lin Tingfeng was dazed for a moment and almost blurted out that name.
Suddenly, he thought of something and his expression became nervous.
He quickly stepped forward, grabbed Cheng Duan by the collar, and asked angrily, "Who is the woman you just mentioned?"
Cheng Duan easily pried his hands apart and said impatiently, "It's none of your business."
"Is it Song Yanxi?"
Zhuang Shihan tried to pull his hand, but it froze in mid-air.
What Song Yanxi?
She was just a little late, did she miss something?
Xu Xiao frowned upon hearing this and asked in a deep voice, "Cheng Duan, what on earth is going on?"
Cheng Duan had a stern face, as if he would never open his mouth no matter how you asked.
He has always been a straightforward person who can't keep his words to himself.
Zhuang Shihan couldn't think of another person who could make him suppress his nature so much and protect her.
She couldn't help but sneer in her heart, but pretended to be anxious on the surface and said, "Princess Yong'an doesn't know martial arts, so if she goes there, won't she just cause trouble?"
