Chapter 96 Thank you for your hard work tonight
Tu Xing glanced at him with an unclear meaning.
Tao Feike smiled ingratiatingly and whispered, "Don't offend me."
Upon hearing this, Tu Xing felt that the internal management was a bit chaotic.
After a little thought, I realized that it must be Celilda's power. Because the whole group is stained with magic, it is greater than everyone in the palace except the Sultan.
——If it comes from behind, ordinary people will be completely unable to resist it.
Tao Feike rubbed his hands, looked at the old man in front of him, and lowered his voice:
"By the way, Lukeman and the others are in jail and want to see you. We're really short on manpower."
Tu Xing's eyelids were twitching, and she really couldn't "stay put". Looking at Lukeman's expression at the time, he thought it was nothing serious.
He planned to use this man to fight against Evander, and if he was killed here, it would be in vain.
At that moment, he asked, "Where are the people?"
Tao Feike raised his arm to indicate the way, "This way——"
Going all the way inside, there are narrow single rooms separated by wooden pillars, arranged neatly, with weeds everywhere and a faint smell of sweat.
When they reached the underground entrance, Tao Feike looked at Waji and said, "Wait here."
Waji's eyes rolled, "Okay."
Tu Xing followed the others down and stood still. Tao Feike picked up the lantern next to him and held it in his hand. The halo moved with it, and he sighed:
"The important prisoners are separated into separate rooms. There's not enough space, so they're all moved underground."
"Originally, only important secret prisoners were kept here."
Tu Xing looked around and saw that the structure was similar to the upper floor, but the road was much shorter and the space would not be very large.
After walking a few steps, they arrived at a single room. The light shone on the person inside, revealing Lukman's haggard face.
When Lukman saw the face of the person coming, he was full of excitement. He stood up using his hands and feet and grabbed the railing with both hands.
Tu Xing got straight to the point: "You're looking for me? How involved were you in that incident?"
Lukeman said hurriedly, "As you saw with your own eyes, I never had any physical contact with women. I just organized order when Evander was away."
Hearing this, Tu Xing looked into his eyes to determine whether it was true or not.
Lukeman's eyes were firm, "Really, Evander's victory lies in running fast enough."
"If I had known I would have gotten the medicine then, but now the last pill is no longer in your Majesty's hands."
The young man exhaled, "So, you want to get some medicine?"
The other person didn't say anything, and judging by his expression, he seemed to be thinking.
Tu Xing: "In the past, when we needed people to test the medicine, taking it would almost certainly kill them. It was like dying to atone for one's sin. If they survived, they would serve His Majesty."
"Now that the method is clear, it's natural to use it effectively. What reason can you use to convince the higher-ups to give it to you?"
"And if you steal it and take it, you'll still be held guilty, and they'll investigate where the medicine came from. That doesn't make any sense, does it?"
Lukeman's eyes flickered violently. "What if I take enough medicine?"
Hearing this, the young man frowned, "What is your majesty's punishment for you? Worse than death?"
Lukeman sighed deeply, "It's not death, but castration and the loss of a leg. For me, that's more terrifying than death."
He suddenly whispered, "Evander is at the border, climbing very fast due to the power of the black lines."
"I'm truly envious and long for abundant strength, the power that comes from my own body, so that I can be admired wherever I go."
After waiting for three seconds, seeing that there was no follow-up, Tu Xing said, "Think about the reason again."
After he finished speaking, he turned around and was about to leave.
Lukeman looked anxious, "Wait!"
The white young man seemed a little impatient, with an expression that said, "Hurry up and say it quickly."
Lukeman: "I've already made it clear - I'll follow you from now on."
Tu Xing's eyes were dull, and he couldn't help but wonder when this happened.
The other party's next words were heard: "My becoming stronger means your power becoming stronger."
"You can think of a reason to take the medicine, right? Give me a hand."
Tu Xing looked at him for a moment, then said, "You emphasized that there was no physical contact. It was mainly Evander who did it before."
"Propose using gold coins instead of punishment, referencing the amount of money for the concubines, and appropriately extend the period for raising money."
"I will volunteer to serve at the border, and then ask for medicine."
Lukeman's eyes brightened, "Yes, yes."
Suddenly he paused, "Do we have to go to the border?"
Tu Xing: "You are suspected of having feelings for His Majesty's woman, and you don't want to be castrated. Naturally, you can't stay in the palace for much longer. Isn't the only way left for you to become a general?"
Lukeman nodded repeatedly: "Yes, it is..."
Tu Xing turned to the person beside him and said, "When His Majesty is in a better mood, tell him he wants to see you."
Tao Feike, who was listening intently, came back to his senses when he heard the words and said, "Okay."
We already knew each other, and he had already conveyed the message before, so it doesn't matter if he conveys it again.
Lukeman squeezed his face between the two wooden pillars and said, "Tomorrow morning. Thank you for your hard work tonight."
"Tonight?" Tu Xing was stunned, and suddenly realized Sudan's mood. Perhaps the key lies in himself.
It will be night in a few hours.
Tu Xing left without saying anything else and went to face Waji Xia.
This person always looks uneasy.
After this glance, Tu Xing leaned over to Tao Feike and whispered, "This man is not allowed to get close to Xilin. Make sure you keep an eye on him."
"If you get close to me, tell me. Others can do whatever they want."
Although Tao Feike didn't understand the reason, he nodded. After two or three seconds, he figured out the reason:
"Because of slandering someone in the palace, he's going to be executed, right?"
Tu Xing: “Yes.”
Tao Feike: "Okay, don't worry, the guards haven't encountered anyone who disobeys my orders, so I will keep an eye on them."
Hearing this, Tu Xing smiled at him approvingly.
