Chapter 32 The King is Frail and Sick

Du Xueyi knew about the deal between Wei Qingyan and Prince Rong.

He thought of several ways that Prince Rong might devise to make Luo Chengzhou agree to a divorce, but he didn't expect Prince Rong to use such an open strategy.

In the yard, Shi Yu was lying on a sandalwood lounge chair, his head supported by his hands, his silver hair spread out, and a faint sharpness shrouded his pale face.

"Putting aside the fact that Yan Lan saved my life, even for the sake of my relationship with the Protector General, I will not let your Luo family bully Yan Lan again.

Incest between brother and sister, collusion with bandits, murder of the wife, Luo Chengzhou, if you commit any of these, I can take your life.

I asked you to come here today for Yan Lan's sake. Please write the divorce letter and we will have nothing to do with each other from now on."

Luo Chengzhou didn't expect Yan Lan to be so shameless that she actually told their family affairs to a man named Prince Rong, and even did not hide the fact that they were kidnapped by bandits.

vulgar!

Bitch!

Bitch!

He cursed in his heart, but maintained a respectful expression, "Prince Rong, I am truly wronged. How dare I collude with the bandits? The bandits were so fierce that we couldn't defeat them, so we fled with our family.

I was heartbroken when Yan Lan was captured, but considering her reputation, I didn't dare report it to the authorities. I thought I would wait until I got to the capital to ask my uncle for help, but who knew..."

"Do you want me to send someone to Tiger Leopard Ridge to capture a few bandits and interrogate them?" Shi Yu interrupted him with a sneer.

"This prince is frail and weak, and I don't have the energy to listen to your sophistry. This prince only asks you, will you write the divorce agreement or not?"

If he hadn't wanted to expose Xiao Yan, he wouldn't bother talking nonsense with him.

Luo Chengzhou always felt that Deputy General Yan was born a slave of the Wei family, and even if he later became the deputy general of the National Defense General, his daughter was not worthy of him.

But his mother ignored his wishes and insisted on arranging this marriage for him. In addition, he fell in love with Luo Congyun, and he hated Yan Lan even more.

But I never thought about divorcing her.

Luo Chengzhou can lose his wife or divorce her.

Divorce?

Is Yan Lan worthy of it?

He gritted his teeth and maintained a smile, "Prince Rong, Yan Lan has lost her virginity. If she really doesn't want to stay in the Luo family, I can grant her a letter of divorce."

Prince Rong's "please" gave him courage and made him less afraid.

Shi Yu glanced at him calmly and said, "It seems that you not only have a bad heart, but also bad ears. I am talking about divorce.

If you hesitate any longer, I will send someone to Tiger Leopard Ridge immediately, and the rumors of your misdeeds will spread throughout the capital tomorrow."

If this is true, not only will his future be in jeopardy, he might even lose his life.

Luo Chengzhou was furious, "Prince Rong, you are bullying others by taking advantage of your power.

If I'm not doing well, I won't be able to hide the fact that Yan Lan was abducted by bandits, and she won't survive."

Prince Rong did not come to him directly, but invited him here. Wasn't it because he wanted to protect Yan Lan's reputation? Wasn't it because Prince Rong has no power now and can't do many things?

So what is he afraid of?

Luo Chengzhou was pleased to have the upper hand over the other party.

"This king is bullying you."

Shi Yu sneered.

With this smile, the arrogance and dominance in his eyes could no longer be concealed, and his previously sickly face was now cold and intimidating.

"With this king here, no one can ruin her reputation. As long as she is willing, this king can choose another husband for her. If you don't want to divorce, this king can also let her marry again after losing her husband."

Without waiting for Luo Chengzhou's reaction, he lazily leaned on the couch and said calmly, "Jingzhe, Luo Chengzhou offended me and caused me to become ill. What is his punishment?"

Jingzhe said coldly, "According to the laws of the Wei Dynasty, anyone who offends the royal family shall be executed."

Shi Yu waved his hand and said, "What are you waiting for? Pull him down and chop him off."

Luo Chengzhou was a scholar. When Jingzhe pulled him, he staggered and followed him out.

When Jingzhe raised the sword in his hand high towards his neck, he could no longer maintain his forced calmness. Terror swept through his body and he cried out in a lost voice, "I'll write it. The divorce agreement. I'll write it..."

If he died here today, who could prove that he had not offended the prince?

Luo Chengzhou was so angry that his teeth were itching.

Paper and ink were already prepared on the table.

Luo Chengzhou had just picked up the pen when Shi Yu's cold voice came, "Write well, or you'll lose this hand."

Luo Chengzhou paused his trembling hands, gritted his teeth and steadily placed the first stroke.

After finishing the writing, Jingzhe blew the ink dry and brought it to Shi Yu.

Shi Yu checked it and ordered, "Accompany him to the government office and have the seal stamped."

Jingzhe responded, took Luo Chengzhou's arm and carried him out.

Luo Chengzhou couldn't break free, his lips trembled with anger and his lungs felt like they were about to explode.

Shi Yu turned his head to look at the archway, "Aren't you tired after watching the show for so long?"

"Is it feasible for Your Highness to threaten me like this?" Du Xueyi walked out of the archway and sat on the stone bench next to him. "Will he bite back at Your Highness?"

But he knew in his heart that Shi Yu didn't want people to know that they had been to Hubao Ridge and that the general had killed County Magistrate Wu and others.

"He doesn't have that chance." Shi Yu sat up, no longer looking sickly, and looked at Du Xueyi, "Why are you here?"

"Visiting the patient." Du Xueyi picked up the teapot on the table and poured himself a cup.

Shi Yu seemed to be lost in thought.

Then his hard jaw softened a little, "Did Miss Chang ask you to come?"

Du Xueyi knew that he was not sick, but he came to visit him, just to show off to others.

Why let others know that he is sick?

After thinking about what had happened recently in the capital, he understood after a little thought.

Wei Qingyan guessed that he was the one who spread the rumors after Wu Yuchu's death, and guessed that it was he who asked Dongzang to lead the government to find Dingxiang's body.

She didn't want anyone to suspect him.

The seriously ill Prince Rong would be ignored and people would let down their guard against him.

Just like today he pretended to be sick and powerless, and could only use the power of the royal family to bully Luo Chengzhou, his purpose was the same.

Du Xueyi was stunned. "How did you know?"

A smile appeared on Shi Yu's handsome face, but he said nothing.

Du Xueyi was depressed.

When the general was a man, he had a very good understanding with Prince Rong. He often felt that their conversations were like a riddle and he could not understand them at all.

Now the general has changed her body and become a woman. The two of them have only had contact with each other a few times, so how come they still have such a tacit understanding?

He seemed very stupid.

Du Xueyi glared at Shi Yu unhappily.

But he soon thought that Shi Yu didn't know that Chang Qingnian was the general.

Moreover, now that the general has become his sister, their relationship is closer, and he feels much more at ease.

Shi Yu was in a good mood and didn't argue with him. He poured him another cup of tea and said with a smile, "After meeting Luo Chengzhou, the king vomited blood and fell into a coma. As my old friend, what should you do?"

Du Xueyi said subconsciously, "It's urgent, please call a doctor."

"Yes." Shi Yu nodded in agreement and patted his shoulder. "Go quickly and look less panicked."

“…”

Du Xueyi walked to the courtyard gate angrily, then returned and drank the cup of tea that Shi Yu had added.

He was arranged by the general to visit the patient for no apparent reason, and was inexplicably assigned a play by Shi Yu. At least he had to drink the tea that Prince Rong poured for him personally.

Then he snorted, "There are many good doctors in the capital. Your Highness, please don't mess up your performance later."

Shi Yu heard the concern in his words and said with a smile, "Don't worry, Xueyi."

His illness was caused by his soul donation, which was different from ordinary injuries. The imperial doctors and folk doctors had treated him for many years but could not find the cause.

What can we see now?

But this pulse really needs to be weakened by some means, and I can't let Xiao Yan down.

However, in order to help Xiao Yan in the future, he couldn't stay sick all the time, so he instructed Dong Zang, "Send a letter to the pharmacy and ask Jing Yang to come to Beijing."
