Chapter 52 Sick
Huo Zian, covered in black and red ants, screamed in despair: "Kill me! Kill me!"
Hei Hu couldn't bear it any longer, so he drew his sword and stepped forward: "My Lord, just kill him!"
Jin Sui slowly stepped forward, took out Huo Zian's badge, and whispered:
"Are you sure? If I kill you, I will have a new 'Master Niu'."
Huo Zian understood what she meant instantly. She could use a badge of the King of Li to impersonate the King of Li.
Naturally, one could use a badge from the Duwei Mansion to have someone pretend to be Duwei Huo.
No matter what she did with this identity at that time, Prince Yu, who was far away in Chang'an, could not do anything about it.
Huo Zian was in great pain, but he made up his mind and shouted, "You are the Li King!"
"You are the King of Brutality!"
Jin Sui laughed and said, "It would have been better if you had said that earlier. I have suffered so much for nothing."
"Hei Hu, take him to the river and wash him clean."
Hei Hu didn't dare to attack directly, so he took off his clothes and threw them at Huo Zian.
After getting rid of most of the ants, he dragged him into the river.
I'm glad that I didn't wear that new red dress today, otherwise he would definitely be reluctant to let me go.
After washing off the insects and ants on the body, the person revealed looked completely different, with red bumps and blood spots all over the body.
Huo Zian scratched his whole body desperately, and soon large bloodstains appeared.
Jinsui asked Heihu to tie his hands and apply medicine on him.
She heard Huo Zian keep spitting and muttering: "You evil ghost! Devil! Madman!"
Jinsui stepped forward: "What did you say?"
Huo Zian said with fear: "You are the Li King, you are the Li King."
Jin Sui nodded: "Yes, if anyone questions my identity in the future, Commander Huo must testify for me!"
At this moment, Huo Zian suddenly felt as if he had fallen into a deeper pit, which was more terrifying than death.
But seeking death is just a matter of anger. Once the anger is gone, you will try hard to survive.
Even if he was asked to swear to expose the identity of the fake King of Li and experience the pain of having his heart eaten by thousands of ants, he really couldn't do it.
Jin Sui smiled and told Hei Hu and the soldier:
"Don't tell anyone about this. This kind of punishment is reserved for the royal family. We can't let outsiders learn it."
The two of them nodded hurriedly, with only one thought in their minds: the royal family is really scary! The reason why Jin Sui didn't let it be spread out was naturally because she didn't want others to know how she forced Commander Huo to change his words.
She always had a feeling that Wei Zhubo, Han Xing and the others did not doubt her identity at all.
However, Cheng Yu began to have doubts after hearing what Huo Zian said.
But Cheng Yu didn't seem to care much about this matter. He felt that no matter whether you were the real King of Li or the fake King of Li, as long as you were nice to the border soldiers, it would be fine.
She sold treasures to reward the Black Feather Camp and helped the border soldiers to collect wages. She proved with practical actions that she, the King of Li, was responsible. That’s why Cheng Yu didn’t investigate further. Huo Zian was sent to the wounded to recuperate. When he heard that he changed his name to Prince, Lord Wei smiled and said:
"Your Majesty is magnanimous. If it was someone else, the assassin would have died long ago."
Jin Sui said: "He is more useful alive than dead. In Yandi, there are some things that are difficult for the King to handle.
But the commander of the Duwei Mansion, Prince Yu’s confidant, is easy to deal with.”
"Besides, there is an assassin sent by Lizhou Mu who is still alive. Lizhou Mu doesn't dare to run to the border all the time!"
Wei Zhubo rolled his eyes and said, "Your Majesty should submit a memorial to His Majesty and report this matter in detail."
Jin Sui glanced at Wei Zhubo and chuckled, "If Wei Zhubo thinks that the emperor will summon me back to Chang'an because of such a small matter, then he is dreaming."
Lord Wei's face turned pale. Returning to Chang'an was his lifelong wish.
It was also the only glimmer of hope he had after King Li arrived.
The flesh on his cheeks trembled twice, but soon calmed down and he laughed dryly:
"Your Majesty is a man of great talent and vision. One day the Emperor will remember your kindness."
Jin Sui laughed loudly: "Remember this, and say it again next time when I ask you to."
Wei Zhubo was stunned, not understanding what this meant.
Jin Sui complained in his heart, it's useless for you to flatter me, the fake King of Li! I can't give you a promotion, at most I can give you some reward money.
When the real King of Glory comes, take pictures again and he will give you a promotion.
Why is the King of Li so slow? Didn't Hao Duojin and the others find Grandpa Ling and the other two? Gu Changxiao, didn't you have any secret guards to help you? In my previous life, I saw novels and TV shows where the princes lived among the people and met people who helped them one after another.
You're so good, you can't meet anyone else except my family?
I thought I only needed to play the role of the King of Li for a period of time. If you didn't come, everyone in Yan would recognize me as the King of Li, and then my fake role would become true.
Where has our True Li King gone? He hasn't even reached Yandi yet! Luocheng is plagued, Yandi is closed, Gu Changxiao told Grandpa Ling that he has a way to enter Yandi.
After leaving Huaizhou, we realized how strict the checkpoints in Yan were and it was impossible to break in.
If you want to enter Yan territory, you can only cross mountains and rivers like Jinsui and his two companions did before.
The three of them weighed the options and decided that, not to mention the tigers and wolves in the mountains, Jin'an was too young, Grandpa Ling could not walk fast after he injured his leg, and although Gu Changxiao had recovered from his injury, he was still weak.
The possibility of survival for these three people who climbed into Yanhui Mountain, which was even more precipitous than Yaohan Mountain, was too slim.
After knowing that the King of Li was his granddaughter, Grandpa Ling was as anxious as Gu Changxiao and wanted to fly to Yanzhou.
But looking at Jin'an's small body, he has to save his granddaughter and take care of his grandson. Winter comes early in the north, and he might freeze to death if he enters the forest.
Grandpa Ling calmly advised Gu Changxiao:
"We can't cross the mountain, so we still have two ways to go. One is that I can bribe the guards to let us in privately."
"Second, we should wait for the Li King's subordinates in Luo City. When they hear the news we have passed on, they will definitely come after us. After we join them, we can enter Yandi."
Gu Changxiao pondered and said, "Master, you can try the first method. I will also try to contact someone who can take us through the customs."
He didn't tell Grandpa Ling and Jin'an that he had actually been trying to contact his old subordinates along the way, and he believed that someone would come over in a few days.
Just at this time, the news from Yan area, where no one was allowed to enter, spread like wildfire.
After besieging the city and demanding money, His Royal Highness Prince Li did another big thing.
But to the common people, this incident sounded like a joke made by a playboy.
That is, the name of his private seal, the Unlimited King of Li, spread.
When Gu Changxiao and the other two heard the news, they were drinking tea in a teahouse in the small town. For the first time in his life, he spat out tea.
Grandpa Ling also sprayed, and both of them choked and coughed.
Only Jin An was there, saying happily: "This title is so impressive and domineering! You are worthy of being my...brother!"
Grandpa Ling covered his mouth with his hand, turned his head and said to Gu Changxiao awkwardly: "The child is ignorant, please don't blame me, Your Majesty."
Gu Changxiao wiped the tea from the corner of his lips and whispered:
"Nothing, just Master Ji, you can still call me Chang Xiao."
After that, the three of them fell silent, and listened quietly to other guests in the teahouse laughing and talking about the 'Li Da Wuxian Wang'.
After a long time, Grandpa Ling and Gu Changxiao looked up at the same time, smiled awkwardly at each other, and then quickly lowered their heads.
Finally, Grandpa Ling was defeated and laughed dryly:
"That kid is really bold. Not only does he not keep a low profile, but he is also so flamboyant."
Gu Changxiao endured it again and again, but still asked the doubts hidden in his heart:
"Master Ji, I've actually been wanting to ask you for a long time, Master Ji, did you have a fever when you were a child and it damaged your brain?"
She is sick! Absolutely sick!
He privately printed the name "Li Da Wuxian Wang" and spread it to everyone.
Is this something a normal person would do? It’s the last day of September, I wish you all a happy National Day holiday in advance! If you still have monthly tickets, please vote for Jinsui!
