"Eunuch Ji."
"I heard that Li Wu has unparalleled martial arts skills and a cold and ruthless temperament. He is not someone who is easy to talk to."
"You lowly slaves have locked his wife in that secret room. If she dies at the hands of the emperor, even if he doesn't dare to hold any grudge against the emperor, he will never let you, a bunch of eunuchs and guards, off easily!"
Zong Zheng Xingyao, trapped in a corner by six guards, could neither leave nor escape.
So he stared at Eunuch Ji and his group, trying to threaten them with words.
Before Eunuch Ji could say anything, Eunuch Xia on the side sneered, "I'm not saying that. Li Wu should thank us."
"He's a man who married into the family. When a man doesn't have any ability, it doesn't matter who you are."
"But once you get promoted and become rich, even the slightest flaw in your background will make you lose face and unable to hold your head up."
"So what if I become a high-ranking official?"
"A married-in husband will be pointed at wherever he goes. People will always talk about how he, a valiant cavalry general, married a merchant."
"If Nangong is truly unlucky enough to die at the hands of His Majesty, wouldn't that relieve him of a major worry?"
"Hahaha……"
A group of people laughed and fell down.
Only Eunuch Ji had a serious expression.
He has followed Eunuch Ji since he was young. If he is not a smart person, he will not be able to take over his adoptive father's position as the chief steward.
So when he found out that Li Wu was actually a chess friend of his adoptive father, he sensed something strange.
My adoptive father said that Li Wu is a man of deep thoughts.
Although he is not a vicious person, he is definitely a scheming and cunning villain.
His fighting on the chessboard is always a powerful siege.
From the first chess piece, the next twenty moves of the game have already been calculated.
This person is definitely not a fish in the pond, nor is he an ordinary person.
Zong Zheng Xingyao: "You understand men so well."
"But are you considered men?"
Eunuch Xia: “You——!”
A look of resentment flashed across his face. The thing that eunuchs hated most in their lives was having others use their vital organs to humiliate them.
Now the princesses and princes in this palace are worthless.
Your Majesty doesn't care about their life or death, so what if he really kills a few of those who are not favored?
Eunuch Xia was about to step forward with his eyes narrowed, but Eunuch Ji at the side moved his feet even faster.
He turned around and slapped Eunuch Xia in the face.
"Asshole!"
"How can a dog slave like you have the right to speak here?"
"Get out!"
Eunuch Ji kicked Eunuch Xia away.
Then he quickly stepped forward and pushed aside the guards who were blocking Zong Zheng Xingyao.
He personally untied the seventh princess.
"Your Highness, please don't be angry."
"Don't listen to their nonsense."
"Isn't this also something that can't be done, my servant?"
"If you don't obey your majesty, you'll lose your head."
"Besides, if you barge in, it will be very dangerous. I can't watch you die."
"Hey, it would be great if General Li Wu could come back sooner!"
Just as he finished speaking, a familiar, deep voice rang out from the side: "Why are you so anxious to see our General Li? Is there something urgent?"
Zong Zheng Xingyao looked up and saw Zhang Tingyu and Yang Qilang striding towards him, one in front and one behind.
And who else could that taller black shadow behind them be but the brave cavalry general?
Zong Zheng Xingyao was delighted and shouted, "You're finally back!!"
"Quick! General Li, go and save your wife, Madam Nangong!"
"Her life is in danger!"
Duan Rongshi, who had originally looked aloof and like an outsider, suddenly raised his head.
"What did you say?"
In the darkness, his eyes were like poisoned ice knives, and his whole body exuded a terrifying aura, as if he could crush everything around him.
Eunuch Ji swallowed his saliva with a gulp.
Eunuch Xia's legs softened uncontrollably.
How could Li Wu be so horrified when he just asked a question?
That look seemed to be able to easily swallow up the darkness in the entire palace.
How can this be a human being?
It's clearly a Rakshasa with murderous aura all over his body!
These people in the palace have all witnessed how cruel the Emperor of Chu is and have experienced big scenes.
But today he was still easily intimidated by a small cavalry general.
Even the princess Zong Zheng Xingyao's head was trembling.
She quickly said a few words and made her words clear: "When you didn't return on time yesterday to report, my father went mad and summoned Madam Nangong to the palace tonight."
"He is currently being held in a secret room, and his life or death is unknown."
"General Li, please go and save her!"
Zhang Tingyu and Yang Qilang's expressions changed accordingly.
Your Majesty, this is too ridiculous!
No matter how beautiful Madam Nangong is, she is still the wife of his close minister!
How could a king summon his minister's wife into the palace at will, and lock them up alone in a room, not allowing anyone else to enter?
If this gets out, Madam Nangong's reputation will be ruined!
How can we live in the future?
"Let's hurry up and report back and rescue Madam Nangong!"
Although His Majesty is not fond of women, he is extremely cruel.
He enjoys torturing and killing people.
If we don’t go in, Madam Nangong’s life will be in absolute danger!
Zhang Tingyu and Yang Qilang were even more nervous than Duan Rongshi.
