Chapter 537 We Swear to Follow the Second Prince
The boss looked at Fuxing with a sneer, waiting for her to fall, but when he looked into Fuxing's dark eyes, he felt inexplicably frightened.
He waited for a while, but Fuxing still stood steadily. The smile on his face gradually froze and turned into fear.
"What's going on?" He heard his own voice trembling, "You...why aren't you dead yet?"
Fuxing smiled, but at this moment, her smile looked particularly strange on that magnificent face.
She looked at the boss with a smile in her dark eyes, and then, under his gaze, she took her hand out.
"How could this happen!" At that moment, the boss saw that his precious scorpion was turning black little by little, and then the pincers that had originally clamped Fuxing loosened instantly, and the precious scorpion fell to the ground.
"Dead...dead..." The boss was so frightened that his face turned pale. "Baoxie is dead..."
When he looked at Fuxing again, it was as if he saw a devil, "You...what kind of monster are you?"
Fuxing no longer needed the dagger. She asked again in a cold voice, "Where is the antidote?"
"Here you go, all for you! I'll give it all to you!" The boss didn't struggle. He immediately took out a packet of medicine from his pocket and handed it to Fuxing. "Just mix the antidote with tea and give it to them."
Fuxing said coldly, "If you dare to lie to me..."
"I dare not! I dare not!" The boss was so scared that he almost went crazy. He took advantage of Fuxing's inattention, snatched the dagger from Fuxing's hand, and then stabbed it into his own neck and committed suicide.
Fuxing was startled and quickly covered Xiao Suining's eyes, coaxing her in a low voice, "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid!"
Xiaotuanzi actually turned her head away at the first moment, but she still saw it and her heart was beating very fast.
This was the first time she saw someone die in front of her.
"Sister Fuxing, I'm fine." Li Suining calmed down for a moment and said politely, "Go and help my second brother and the others detoxify."
"Okay, I'll carry you over and let you sit down. It will be over soon." Fuxing picked up Li Suining and put him aside.
Then, she immediately mixed the antidote she had just obtained with tea, and tried it again with the floating grass. Sure enough, it was non-toxic.
She quickly detoxified Bai Yu'an and others.
The antidote was obviously very effective. Bai Yu'an and others quickly regained consciousness and were able to move freely.
"Thank you, Fuxing." Bai Yu'an thanked Fuxing and hurried to check on Li Suining. "Sister?"
"Second brother!" Little Dumpling hugged Bai Yu'an's neck and burst into tears.
She was really scared.
"Be good, little sister, don't be afraid." Bai Yu'an hugged Li Suining and coaxed her over and over again. Finally, he told the little one seriously, "This teahouse owner must be a very powerful killer. He didn't seem to hesitate at all when he was about to kill the guards. Moreover, suicide was his own choice. He deserved it."
Li Suining nodded, not quite understanding what was going on, and finally felt less scared.
Soon, everyone was cured of the poison.
Yuan Xiaonian smiled and touched Li Suining's little head, "Well done..."
He looked at Fuxing again and nodded gently, "Thank you."
"Second Prince," most of the guards had seen Fuxing torture the boss just now. The way they looked at Fuxing was not much different from the boss who was frightened to death. Captain Xiao Jingwen said cautiously, "The high priest... is really amazing."
"There are still five days left," Yuan Xiaonian said coldly, "They won't give up easily."
Bai Yu'an and Xiao Jingwen nodded at the same time.
Yuan Xiaonian looked at the guards and said, "You have seen the current situation. The other party wants this prince to enter Dongchu alone. Therefore, in the last five days, they will definitely do everything they can to get rid of you."
The guards looked at each other, their expressions obviously worried.
"This prince will give you a chance now," Yuan Xiaonian continued. "Those of you who wish to retreat can return to Dajin now and at least save your lives. Those who are willing to follow this prince eastward will be rewarded by this prince when the opportunity arises in the future."
"Second Prince..." Xiao Jingwen wanted to say something to stop Yuan Xiaonian's decision.
Yuan Xiaonian raised his hand and whispered, "Let them choose. Of course, Captain Xiao, you also have the right to choose."
Xiao Jingwen shook his head helplessly and made the first choice, "Xiao Jingwen is willing to stay and follow the Second Prince until death!"
Once the captain made his choice, everyone quickly made up their minds.
"Cao Ming is willing to follow the Second Prince until death!"
"Zhao Xingguo swears to follow the Second Prince until death!"
…
In the end, everyone in the guard team chose to stay.
Yuan Xiaonian was slightly surprised, and confirmed with some disbelief, "Have you thought it through? But no one is forcing you. Even if you choose to return to Dajin, I, Yuan Xiaonian, promise not to target anyone in the future."
"I swear to follow the Second Prince until death! I swear to follow the Second Prince until death!..."
"Second Prince, let's continue on our journey!" Bai Yu'an curled the corners of his mouth towards Yuan Xiaonian, as a way of congratulating him on getting everyone's recognition.
"Okay! Let's keep on going!" Yuan Xiaonian quickly got on the carriage.
Bai Yu'an handed the little dumpling to Fuxing, "Please."
Fuxing didn't say anything and took Li Suining back to the carriage. The little guy looked depressed and listless.
The large army traveled safely for another two days. In three days, they would be able to enter the territory of Dongchu. By then, they would be received by Dongchu officials, and it would be difficult for the assassins from Dajin to act.
Therefore, everyone became more and more nervous, always alert to possible dangers.
Li Suining's spirits also improved, and she was full of curiosity about the new capital that she was about to arrive at.
"Sister Fuxing, Dongchu is very big, right?"
Fuxing twitched the corner of his mouth, "I haven't been there either, but I heard that Dongchu is the largest and most powerful neighboring country of Dajin."
Li Suining suddenly thought of the arrogant Prince of Dongchu. The two little guys had almost no contact when they were in the Imperial City of Dajin. He didn't know if they could get along peacefully this time.
Two days passed quickly and everything was still peaceful. Everyone's tension and excitement reached a peak.
After dark, Fuxing tentatively reminded Li Suining, "Sister Suining, don't you want to go see the stars?"
Little Dumpling blinked her eyes. She would occasionally look at the stars these days, but the stars still could not answer her questions clearly. She had almost accepted the fact that she could not see the future.
But when she looked at Sister Fuxing's expression, she was afraid that Sister Fuxing would think too much.
So, she gritted her teeth and nodded, "Okay, I'll go check it out now."
