Feng Huo Lian Cheng quickly led his men to prepare food for Li Yuanba.
Lü Fang walked in.
The people at the door quickly blocked him.
“I have something to say to this burly man.”
Li Yuanba roared at Pang Hao's men, "Get out of the way! Nobody get in the way!"
Lu Fang walked in and gently approached Li Yuanba: "This strong man, I have something to say to you."
"Speak."
"If someone wants to harm you, make sure they taste the food served to them. You shouldn't have the intention to harm others, but you can't be without the intention to guard against them."
“That makes sense, I’ll be careful.” Li Yuanba nodded. “If anyone tries to kill me, I can take their head with this hammer.”
...
A carrier pigeon landed steadily in Shangguan Wan'er's hand.
The little girl picked up the letter and was immediately horrified.
She quickly ran to Jiang Tian.
"Lord Jiang, something terrible has happened."
"What's wrong? The sky isn't going to fall," Jiang Tian comforted him.
"Pang Hao has already stormed the palace."
"The Imperial Guards have suffered heavy losses. The fate of the Imperial Guards Commander Ling Yunxiao is unknown, and the Empress has been captured."
"What..." Jiang Tian could hardly believe his ears. "Li Yuanba hasn't arrived yet?"
Shangguan Wan'er shook her head: "It probably hasn't arrived yet."
"So what if I get arrested?" Jiang Tian smiled slightly. "I'll just use the pretext of cleaning up the court of corrupt officials for His Majesty to deal with Pang Hao."
"Pang Hao is a treacherous and cunning man. He would never let things be so simple. Your Majesty is in danger."
"Don't worry, there's no danger. This world will be mine sooner or later."
Shangguan Wan'er knelt down before Jiang Tian with a thud: "My lord, please have mercy and save His Majesty. Wan'er kowtows to you."
“You’re just a palace lady-in-waiting, there’s no need for this. If something happens to the Empress, I’ll have a better excuse to deal with Pang Hao and the others. Isn’t that right?”
"This... The Great Xia Dynasty is in peril. My lord, as long as His Majesty is saved, Wan'er will do anything."
"My lord, this matter is urgent and cannot be delayed. Do you really want Her Majesty, a mere seventeen-year-old girl, to die at the hands of Pang Hao?"
"My lord, I beg you." Shangguan Wan'er kept kowtowing to Jiang Tian, her forehead was red and swollen.
Jiang Tian looked towards Tai'an City through his binoculars.
"Speed up."
"My lord, going like this is too slow. We can't take it so leisurely," Shangguan Wan'er said, her voice trembling with tears. "By the time we arrive, His Majesty will probably already be dead."
"My lord, we can't delay any longer," Shangguan Wan'er kowtowed several more times.
"Get up," Jiang Tian said, seeing Shangguan Wan'er crying with tears streaming down her face. He quickly reached out and helped her up.
"I'll go right now."
Shangguan Wan'er nodded, and the little girl smiled through her tears: "Thank you, sir, thank you, sir. I thank you on behalf of His Majesty, and I thank you on behalf of the people of the Great Xia Dynasty."
Jiang Tian opened the carriage and took out the powered parachute.
The train roared forward.
Jiang Tian pulled the engine, and a roaring sound filled the air.
The propeller started spinning rapidly.
Jiang Tian pulled on the ropes on both sides of the powered paraglider, and a huge gust of air blew him backward rapidly.
Jiang Tian rushed forward a few steps, and the powered parachute quickly soared into the sky, flying straight towards the capital.
Seeing the powered paraglider soaring into the sky, Shangguan Wan'er was overjoyed: "Lord Jiang, I'm counting on you for everything."
...
The Imperial Study.
Several palace maids came over carrying plates: "Brave warrior, please have a meal."
Li Yuanba glanced at Lü Fang, then at the palace maids: "You all eat some first. Also, this little bit isn't even enough to fill my teeth. Make more."
Upon hearing that they were to be given food, the palace maids were so frightened that they quickly waved their hands.
“These things are for brave warriors; how dare we eat them?”
“Brave warrior, these are all prepared for you. We are just palace maids, how could we be entitled to eat like this?”
Li Yuanba thought about it and agreed.
He looked at the food on the plate; there was very little of it.
Li Yuanba: "Bring me a basin."
"What……"
"Bring me a basin," Li Yuanba repeated.
Qian Renxue looked at the palace maids and said, "If you dare to poison the food, I will kill you all."
"You better tell me honestly, was there any poison in this food?"
The palace maids stammered, not daring to speak at all.
"Hahaha..." Feng Huo Liancheng walked over, "Poisoning? Why would we poison someone? Brave warrior, are you also worried that we'll poison them?"
Feng Huoliancheng grabbed a chicken leg and stuffed it into his mouth.
This guy even ate the chicken leg bones. After finishing, Feng Huo Lian Cheng opened his mouth and stuck out his tongue: "Brave warrior, if this dish is poisoned, wouldn't I be poisoned to death?"
Li Yuanba nodded: "Alright, stop dawdling and get me a basin."
The palace maid didn't know what Li Yuanba wanted the basin for.
Soon, they brought over a wooden basin.
Li Yuanba poured all the dozen or so dishes that the palace maids had brought into a wooden basin.
The guy reached into the greasy dish with both hands and stirred it quickly.
This large pot of vegetables weighs at least 10 to 20 kilograms.
Li Yuanba wasn't picky: "This dish smells good."
As soon as he finished speaking, Li Yuanba began to eat heartily.
Seeing Li Yuanba enjoying his meal, Feng Huo Lian Cheng was overjoyed.
In Feng Huo Lian Cheng's view, Li Yuanba was definitely courting death.
This dish contains a deadly poison from southern Xinjiang. Once ingested, even a divine being would be helpless.
Seeing Li Yuanba finish the entire large bowl of food, Feng Huo Lian Cheng burst into laughter.
"why are you laughing."
"What business is it of yours if I laugh at myself? I'm laughing at you for being so busy eating that you'll probably be leaving this world soon."
Upon hearing this, Li Yuanba frowned, but he still didn't understand the meaning of "the city is engulfed in flames."
Empress Qian Renxue: "You despicable and shameless fellow. You ate a chicken leg that wasn't poisoned, but made this hero eat a whole bowl of poisoned food."
Lü Fang: "Imperial Physician, we have already gone to the Imperial Hospital to find an imperial physician. We must save him."
Feng Huo Lian Cheng laughed loudly: "We have the entire palace under our control. Who would dare to come and rescue people? Unless they're tired of living."
Li Yuanba suddenly felt a sharp pain in his stomach.
"You bastard, you actually poisoned this place! Even if I die, I'll kill you!" Li Yuanba brandished his golden hammer and smashed it at the other party.
Feng Huo Liancheng ran away in a flash: "You little brat, I'll see how long you can hold out. This poison will soon rip your guts out, and you can go to hell in peace."
"I'll kill you." Li Yuanba tried to grab two hammers and rush out, but the pain in his stomach was unbearable.
"My lord, where are you? Come and save me..." Li Yuanba roared to the sky.
