Chen Jian's originally smiling face suddenly darkened, and he stared at Fang Zhengyi with a grim look.
You little bastard! You start to sow discord as soon as you meet?
The King of Wu ignored Fang Zhengyi and said to himself, "No, we have been frank with each other. I am no longer the King of Wu of Dajing. You should call me Your Majesty."
"Impossible! Even dogs in the capital know that I, Fang Zhengyi, am a loyal minister. If they call you Your Majesty, will I still be able to live as a human being in the future?" Fang Zhengyi answered without hesitation.
You absolutely cannot recognize it now!
I'm still waiting for someone to rescue me. I'd have to be crazy to go overseas with you!
I have a whole family waiting for me to support!
Besides, these days, if a broken ship encounters strong winds and waves, it is very likely to die on the way!
Besides, how can you kneel down when you meet during a negotiation? Wouldn't that be lowering your own status?
Seeing that Fang Zhengyi was not giving him face at all, the King of Wu said gloomily, "Loyal minister? Flattery, privately adding city walls, rebuilding beyond regulations, kidnapping merchants, making your own weapons, which of these are what a loyal minister should do? For several years, I thought you were preparing to rebel!"
"It's not a crime to love my country!" Fang Zheng shouted.
The King of Wu was obviously amused by this and sarcastically said, "Not guilty? Even the most despicable person can be patriotic. If a dog could talk and you gave it a bone, it would probably be patriotic, right?"
"I have given you enough face. You have no right to choose. Don't be ungrateful. If my people take the Immortal Merit from Taoyuan County, it is still unclear whether you can save your life! You have ruined my plans several times. Do you think I really don't want to kill you?"

Inside the Haiyuan City Prison.
“Is it recorded?”
“It’s on record.”
Zhao Lie nodded and looked at the Lu family members who had finished recording their statements: "Well, the silver foil is used up, no need to record anymore, just lock him up."
The brother who was recording breathed a sigh of relief and shook his wrists: "Ah... finally finished, this thing is troublesome enough! The master has a lot of requirements, and if he stutters, he has to re-record."
After saying that, he stood up and raised his hand to give the Lu family a big slap in the face: "I'll make you stutter!"
Although the phonograph was a novelty, people obviously got bored of it after playing with it a few times, let alone playing with it all day long.
Zhao Lie quietly packed up the phonograph, glanced at the Lu family members who were silently crying, and said, "You know how to cry now? What were you thinking about when you were bullying others?"
But at this moment, a man suddenly came in from outside the prison gate, ran to Zhao Lie, and said breathlessly: "Captain! Something happened... I went to deliver something to the master and couldn't find him anywhere. Coach Zhou was not there either. I saw marks left by our people on the ground all the way out of the city gate. The guards at the city gate said that they saw someone riding a horse and carrying people running away from the city this morning!"
"I just sent a signal from the city, and our people are here, except for the master and Coach Zhou!"
Zhao Lie's heart trembled, and his hair stood on end: "Why didn't anyone stop the city gate guards? Are you sure?"
"No doubt about it! Those two good-for-nothings at the city gate have been doing nothing since they knew we took over Haiyuan City. They just chat and gossip all day long!"
"Hurry...Right now!! Tell the brothers to gather all the equipment and chase after them immediately!"
