Everyone knows that the drought demon came from the Great Xia Dynasty.
However, there is currently no evidence to suggest that the drought demon was deliberately introduced to the Jin state by the Xia dynasty.
As soon as Park Eun-soo said this, everyone looked at Lin Yu with wary expressions.
"Eun-soo, do you think this kid is a spy?" Kim Hee-soon's face darkened.
Park Eun-soo sneered, "I don't know if he's a spy or not, but I do know that our neighbor doesn't want us to become too powerful. He wants us to remain small and dependent on them, and not cause any trouble! They are probably doing this to deliberately deplete the national strength of our Kim Kingdom!"
Upon hearing this, Kim Hee-soon's expression changed; he felt that Park Eun-soo's words made a lot of sense.
“Furthermore, this drought demon will bring a fever that is difficult for our medicine to treat. They may very well be trying to take advantage of this to manipulate us, sell us special drugs or vaccines, and exploit us!” Park Eun-soo added.
Wow!
The crowd erupted in uproar.
If that's true, then the people of Great Xia are truly despicable! They're incredibly vicious!
"The Xia people are cunning!"
"hateful!"
"mean!"
"Lord Park, kill him quickly to prevent future troubles!"
The crowd began to shout, and some radicals even called for Lin Yu's execution.
"No, it's not what you think!"
At this moment, Kim Ji-hyun stepped forward and said to Kim Hee-soon, "General, Mr. Lin is definitely not that kind of person. Along the way, he has been with me to treat the disaster victims and has prescribed reasonable and effective remedies. He has always considered the needs of our people. I guarantee that he is definitely not a bad person!"
At this moment, Kim Ji-hyun stood up for Lin Yu, because she admired his medical skills and ethics immensely.
Park Eun-soo's face darkened. "Princess, you are my fiancée! How can you speak for an outsider!"
"I..." Kim Ji-hyun didn't know how to start the conversation.
Jin Xishun waved his hand and said coldly, "Princess, no matter what, we should be more cautious. What if this boy is a spy sent by the Great Xia? It will be too late to regret it once a disaster is caused. I suggest that we expel him from the country directly!"
"Someone come here!"
At Jin Xishun's command, a group of soldiers surrounded Lin Yu.
"Boy, if you leave Pingcheng now and go back to your Great Xia, I can let bygones be bygones; otherwise..."
"Mr. Lin..."
Kim Ji-hyun couldn't help but take two steps forward, biting her red lips as she said, "I'm sorry, they don't understand, that's why they misunderstood you. Please don't blame them!"
Lin Yu smiled slightly, "Princess, there's no need for that. I came to the Jin Kingdom only for the drought demon. Now that the drought demon has been sealed away, I'll just leave!"
He couldn't stay in this situation any longer.
If this were in Japan or the United States, he would probably have wiped out these idiots on the spot.
However, the Jin Kingdom is a special case and is of great importance to the world order, so he did not want to cause trouble for the Great Xia.
"I've done what I should do and said what I should say. The drought demon must be dealt with as soon as possible, or it will cause endless trouble!"
After Lin Yu finished speaking, he strode outside.
“Mr. Lin!” Kim Ji-hyun shouted from behind.
"Mr. Lin, the people of our Jin Kingdom will forever remember your kindness!"
Lin Yu paused for a moment, nodded slightly, and walked out without looking back.
...
Half a day later, a grand victory celebration banquet was held at the Jin Dynasty palace.
King Kim Jae-shin personally presented Park Eun-soo with a medal of honor and bestowed upon her the title of Vice Commander-in-Chief!
Moreover, a date was chosen on the spot for the wedding of Park Eun-soo and Princess Kim Ji-hyun.
The whole country cheered!
A hero and a princess—they're a match made in heaven, and the whole nation agrees.
But Kim Ji-hyun, who plays the lead role, doesn't seem so happy.
At the celebration banquet, Lin Yu's image kept popping into her mind.
His resolute face and the way he carefully administered the acupuncture needles kept echoing in her heart.
"Eun-soo, there's something I want to talk to you about in private!"
At the banquet, Kim Ji-hyun walked up to Park Eun-soo, who was beaming with pride, and said something.
Park Eun-soo frowned. "What? So eager for the wedding night? We're not even married yet!"
Kim Ji-hyun looked speechless. "I have something else to tell you!"
Afterwards, Park Eun-soo and Kim Ji-hyun went to a secluded place.
Kim Ji-hyun confessed to Park Eun-soo, "Eun-soo, you're a good person, but I..."
"You have someone you like?" Park Eun-soo's lips curled slightly.
Kim Ji-hyun paused for a moment, then blushed and said, "No, it's just that I'm not ready yet! This marriage was arranged by my father in front of all the officials, and it's a matter of his reputation, so I can't refuse him outright. But actually, I'm not ready to get married yet!"
“I understand!” Park Eun-soo said calmly. “To tell you the truth, I’m only doing this for the sake of reputation. Becoming a prince consort would change my caste and fulfill the dream of generations of my Park family. Other than that, I have no illusions about marriage! And I’m not interested in women at all!”
Kim Ji-hyun was slightly taken aback. "Um, what did you mean by your last sentence?"
Park Eun-soo's lips curled slightly. "What? Isn't this what you wanted?" he said, cornering Kim Ji-hyun against the wall.
Kim Ji-hyun's face flushed red. "You can do whatever you want. Even if we get married, you're free. I just hope you won't interfere with me..."
"Of course, I won't interfere! However, I have only one request: if you take a fancy to someone, you must let me know in advance, and don't secretly cheat on me!"
