Chapter 444 He Doesn’t Want to Make Her His Concubine
"Master, this is made for you by the old lady herself. The old lady asked you to take a rest after eating."
In the study, Dong Zang put the lunch box on the table and said to Shi Yu.
After Abu was captured, Shi Yu stayed up all night for several days to make the people in the dark believe that Abu was the Crown Princess.
Lin Qianning felt so distressed when she saw her son's increasingly thin face, so she went to the kitchen herself and made some nourishing food for her son.
When Shi Yu put down the documents and went to wash his hands, Dong Zang had already laid out the food. "Master, Master Jing and the others have caught up with the Crown Princess."
"Tell them to be careful and not let Xiaoyan notice. Just keep her safe from a distance."
Shi Yu wiped his hands clean and picked up the bowl. "You must be tired these days. Go and take a rest later if you have nothing to do."
Dongzang and the others have been running around these days following the performance.
The people of Chilie had never suspected Abu and had already taken him away to Chilie, so this drama could be temporarily put on hold.
Dong Zang hesitated and said, "Master, since you guessed the Crown Princess's decision, why didn't you stop it?"
He also followed secretly and watched the Crown Princess disguised as a man and go to Pu State safely, and then he returned quietly.
The Crown Princess is pregnant with a little master. If the master tried to stop her, she might have given up the idea.
"She was raised as a man since she was young, served as a general protecting the country, and is now the crown prince of the Wei Dynasty. Family, country and the world are woven into her bones.
Even if I stopped her from going to Pu State, she would not be able to sit back and watch the developments on the way back to Wei. She would have more work to do in Wei.
I grew up with her and I know she's not someone who doesn't know her limits. I believe she can take care of herself and her children."
After hearing this, Dong Zang complained in his heart for the first time that his master was not sincere in his words and deeds.
If he was really at ease, he would not have sent Jing Lao and others who had just arrived in Fengzhao to follow the Crown Princess.
Old Jing is an expert in both medicine and poison. He is just worried that the Crown Princess might be in danger so he can take action.
Naturally, he also knew the difficulties faced by his master and could not bear to restrain the Crown Princess's support, while he himself could not leave...
Thinking that his master was also feeling bad, he didn't dare to ask any more questions and quickly changed the subject, "Are you going to deal with that old woman in the mansion?"
They also took advantage of the opportunity when Abu pretended to be the Crown Princess and conducted a thorough investigation before they discovered the old woman.
But when I followed the old woman to the house, it was empty.
Just like before, they followed the clues given by Rong An and found the sect under Lin Wanzhi. When their people arrived, they only saw a group of elderly, weak, women and children.
This group of old, weak, women and children are the families of Lin Wanzhi's subordinates. They are usually supported by the organization so that those people in the organization are willing to work for her. On the other hand, she also uses their families to control them.
Previously, the prince and his men had strangled many of Lin Wanzhi's men, and now the only ones left in that sect were the families of the dead.
As for the rest of the people who were still alive and followed Leng Jian, their families were moved away early.
After interrogating all those who stayed behind, no one knew where Leng Jian and his men were hiding, and they didn't even know that the sect belonged to Lin Wanzhi.
Just think that they are chivalrous and the sect that takes them in will naturally not do evil.
The prince couldn't kill all those who hadn't committed any crime, so he had to find a place to settle them.
Dongzang felt very aggrieved just thinking about it. Such cunning people, when he found the ones who caused the cold arrows, he would skin them alive.
Shi Yu was thinking about where Wei Qingyan was now and whether he was doing well, so he was unaware of Dong Zang's complaints about him.
After taking a sip of soup, he said, "Let's keep it for now. Who knows, when they're at their wit's end, they might think of this chess piece again.
Now that Abu has been captured, they won't use the civilians as scapegoats anymore. Over in the plague village, the antidote prepared by Jingyang can be distributed."
Dongzang thought about it and told the secret guards to keep a closer eye on the old woman. He went to Jingyang's yard again and then returned to the house to rest.
But I couldn't fall asleep, wondering how Jingzhe was doing.
He never underestimated Jingzhe's abilities. Jingzhe had fought in wars with his master before, but in the past, the master was in charge of everything and they only had to obey orders.
Although the old Marquis of Zhenbei and Lin Lanting were with Jingzhe this time, the purpose of his master sending him there was to hope that he could take over the mantle of the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery. Jingzhe himself also knew his master's expectations of him.
I can no longer rely on others for everything as I did before, but the battlefield is dangerous, and as a general, I have to be extremely cautious in every move I make.
Jingzhe is good at everything except using his brain.
Dongzang sighed inwardly.
I hope Jingzhe can encounter fewer setbacks on his growth journey and return safely.
Thinking of this, he thought of Abu again. If Abu could successfully kill Prince Chilie, Jingzhe's predicament would be much better.
Dongzang, who couldn't sleep, prayed in his heart, hoping that Abu would be successful.
Abu, whom he had high hopes for, felt like his body was about to be shaken apart while sitting in the carriage.
If the two men who had captured him had not lifted the curtain from time to time to see if he was still there, he would have wished he could have become invisible immediately, hidden in the Broken Evil, and followed them to Chi Lie.
There was another huge bump, and Abu was so angry that he kicked the car wall hard, but unfortunately, what he thought was a strong force was actually weak and powerless.
From the moment he was captured, these people had been using soft muscles to restrain him.
Fortunately, when he transformed into a spirit, he was not affected by these drugs.
But before cutting off Prince Chilie's pig head, he could not expose himself. He could only think about Prince Chilie's death thousands of times in his mind to divert his attention and express some comfort.
When Abu felt that he would break if it continued to shake, the carriage finally stopped.
He was brought to Prince Chilie's tent, where he stared at Prince Chilie, who had a head full of pigtails.
"Are you Wei Qingyan? The Great Wei's Protector General?"
The burly Prince Chilie looked down at Abu, whose hands and feet were tied, and examined him from head to toe.
"I heard you were very brave when you fought off Wudan. Unfortunately, it was difficult to capture you, so I couldn't give you the antidote and compete with you."
Abu also looked at this rough-looking man, but did not dare to look down on him.
The person who could stand out among the many sons of the old Emperor Chilie and win the position of crown prince was definitely not a simple person.
So I followed the procedure and asked, "What do you want to do?"
Prince Chilie said, "I've heard you have extraordinary abilities. We in Chilie admire those with abilities the most. If you can serve Chilie, when I conquer the world in the future, I can make you my consort and share the world with me."
Having said that, his tone was like that of the Creator who was high above.
"I am the crown prince of Wei, the future empress, and the crown princess of Feng Zhao. I must have been kicked in the head by a horse to want your crappy concubine position."
Abu rolled his eyes and said, "If I really have supernatural powers, how could I be captured by you?
You are simple-minded but strong-limbed. You don't even know you've been taken advantage of. Let me go back now, or my father and husband will never let you off easily."
Prince Chilie's face froze. He didn't expect that the crown prince of Wei would say such vulgar words. Although he looked down on the people of Central Plains, he really liked the gracefulness, kindness and gentleness of the women of Central Plains.
The person in front of me didn't have a single bit of charm, but rather looked like a soldier in a military camp.
Yes, I heard that she had been disguised as a man since she was a child, hanging out in the military camp. And looking at her face, which is tougher than an average woman's, and her tall stature...
He no longer wanted to make her his concubine.
The hand that was about to touch Abu's face was withdrawn, and he only said, "Does anyone know that it was this prince who arrested you?
Besides, Shi Yu himself can hardly protect himself."
It is not necessary to establish a concubine in order to make her serve him, Prince Chilie snorted in his heart.
Abu did not miss the disgust in his eyes, thinking that his brother-in-law's information was indeed correct. This trick really made the Savage Prince lose interest in him. Otherwise, his identity would be exposed if he kept pulling strings.
He continued rudely, "What do you mean by that?"
And who is that Feng Zhao bastard you're colluding with?"
