Chapter 22: Naughty Kids? Naughty Parents!
Li Jing looked troubled at the moment, but he finally nodded and said, "Your Majesty, I will fetch the Xuanyuan Heaven-shaking Bow and the Xuanyuan Heaven-shaking Arrows right away!"
After saying that, he bowed slightly to Li Qing, then turned around and strode back.
Yin Suzhi and others were still standing there, waiting for Li Qing's next instructions.
Li Qing came here with something in mind, so he said calmly: "Oh, by the way, Madam Yin is in charge of the internal affairs of the entire Chentang Pass. She must be very familiar with the famous people here."
Yin Suzhi quickly bowed and said, "I am not very talented, but I am here to help my husband manage the trivial matters of Chentang Pass. I do know a few famous people in Chentang Pass, including scholars, noble men, and martial arts practitioners. I wonder who the king wants to summon?"
Li Qing smiled, waved his hand, and said calmly, "I'm not here to see anyone. It's just that on my way to Chentang Pass, I encountered a rebellious child. He first blocked my army, then fought with my generals, and finally even insulted me, calling me a tyrannical, licentious, and incompetent ruler, and cursing my great Shang dynasty to its doom. That child has been captured by my generals, but he only claimed to be a disciple of Taiyi Zhenren, not whose family he is from. I think that child has considerable abilities and should be quite famous in Chentang Pass, so I want Madam Yin to identify who dares to raise such a traitor and thief."
After saying this, Li Qing's expression was calm, but Yin Suzhi's pupils shrank and his whole body began to tremble.
Putting aside other things, just based on that sentence, Yin Suzhi, the disciple of Taiyi Zhenren, can be completely certain that the boy who dared to stop the army of the Human Emperor must be his own Zhaer!
He, he was tyrannical within Chentang Pass, beating and killing civilians as if it were just a game, but how dare he charge into the Human Emperor's army?! How dare he?! It was all my fault! I had spoiled him and made him an arrogant person who didn't know his place.
For a moment, Yin Suzhi's voice could not stop shaking as she said, "My king, please bring the child up here so I can have a look at him."
Li Qing waved his sleeves indifferently. Seeing this, Zhang Kui naturally shouted, "Bring that little bastard up here!"
“Hua La La~”
After just a moment, the sound of chains was heard outside the door, and then two soldiers as fierce as bears walked into the hall dragging two iron chains.
At the end of the chain, Nezha, with one arm broken, was dragged in backwards, covered in blood.
At this moment, Nezha was locked by two iron chains at his scapula, his spine sealed, and his dantian pierced. No matter how powerful he was, he could not move. He could only curse non-stop: "Stupid king! Just wait for me! My master, Taiyi Zhenren, will come to rescue me sooner or later! When I am free, I will eat your flesh and sleep on your skin! I will kill all of you, the royal family of the Shang Dynasty! Kill you all!"
"You arrogant little bastard!"
Li Qing's expression remained unchanged, but Zhang Kui, Huang Feihu and other generals were furious. Zhang Kui even cursed loudly, took a step forward and came in front of Nezha. With just one slap, Nezha's mouth was cracked and seven or eight teeth fell out.
However, although Nezha had lost his cultivation, his physical body was still that of a true immortal. No matter how serious his injuries were, he could recover as long as he did not die instantly. So after he spat out a mouthful of blood mixed with his teeth, he continued to curse.
Zhang Kui kept slapping Nezha in the face. With his Daluo cultivation, he beat Nezha so hard that he almost rolled his eyes and could no longer speak. His face was swollen like a pig's head.
"Stop fighting! Stop fighting!"
Seeing this, Yin Suzhi could no longer endure it. She screamed and rushed forward, lying on Nezha, crying out in tears: "Nezha! Nezha! How could you cause such a disaster?"
"Hmm?" Li Qing propped up his head with his hand, then sat sideways on the big chair. He asked with a half-smile on his face, "Madam Yin, you're so protective of this kid. Is he related to you?"
Seeing Nezha's miserable state, Yin Suzhi had long been filled with hatred for King Zhou Li Qing. However, even if she had the guts, she wouldn't dare to resist. She knelt down and turned around, crying, "Your Majesty! Please forgive me! This child is not someone else, but my third son, Nezha. I have spoiled him since he was young, and now he has offended Your Majesty! I beg Your Majesty to spare his life, considering his young age and lack of etiquette!"
"Oh, I was wondering whose child it was that was so arrogant. Turns out it's yours. He's really spoiled. Look, that's how naughty kids are made."
Li Qing nodded, then sat up straight, pointing at Nezha and Yin Suzhi below, as if speaking to the generals.
"Hmph, a child's character can be seen in his eighties. This little bastard looks only seven or eight, yet he's so disrespectful to his superiors. How can he be explained away by being spoiled? He must have treated human life like worthless for so long, and he has someone protecting him, which is why he's developed such a lawless nature!"
When everyone heard this, they were all silent. However, Fang Bi snorted coldly and said with murderous intent.
Li Qing immediately laughed and said, "So, behind every naughty child, there must be a naughty parent."
"Please spare my life, my king."
Yin Suzhi just knelt down and kowtowed, begging for mercy.
"Oh, the favorability is finally negative. Um, the loyalty is also negative."
Li Qing, on his side, smiled and whispered to himself.
I saw that Yin Suzhi's loyalty and favorability data, which had not been displayed before, were now revealed.
It had not appeared before because Yin Suzhi had no affection or loyalty towards Li Qing at all, but it appeared now because Li Qing had become an object of hatred in her heart!
Favorability: -100
Loyalty: -100
This means that he has already rebelled against the Shang Dynasty in his heart.
Although Li Qing smiled faintly, the murderous intent in his eyes became more and more intense.
"Mother?~."
Nezha had regained some consciousness. He opened his eyes and saw the kneeling figure. He instantly recognized it as his mother and cried out through gritted teeth, "Mother! Go and inform my master and have him avenge me!"
"Shut up, rebellious son!"
Upon hearing this, Yin Suzhi quickly turned around and slapped Nezha's already swollen face with a neither light nor heavy slap. She roared like a mad tiger, then turned around and kowtowed to Li Qing, shouting, "Your Majesty! It is my fault for not being able to discipline him properly! This has caused my wicked son to become so rebellious and disrespectful to his superiors! If Your Majesty wants to kill him, then kill me! Please, Your Majesty, spare his life for the sake of his youth! Please spare his life!"
"Your Majesty! Li Jing has taken the Xuanyuan Zhentian Bow and Xuanyuan Zhentian Arrows and is waiting to see you outside the door!"
Li Qing was thinking about whether to use this as an excuse to arrest Li Jing and his family, but he heard another shout from the guard outside the door.
Hearing this, Li Qing nodded and said, "Let him in!"
Li Jing suddenly walked in with the Xuanyuan Zhentian bow and two Xuanyuan Zhentian arrows in his hands.
Similarly, as soon as he walked in, he saw Nezha lying on the ground and Yin Suzhi kneeling there!
