Book One, Chapter 58
Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales Su Yan said, "Right now, we only have two choices. The first is to bring our supporters to join the Royal Alliance; if we attack now, we will definitely fail. The second is to gamble that they will not discover that we poisoned them. This might be a test, and if you pass, you will become the Fire Country's King."
Li Baiqing thought about it seriously and said, "I choose the second option!"
Su Yan looked at Li Baiqing seriously and asked, "Are you sure?"
Li Baiqing nodded, "We won't be able to bring many people with us; I only have so many people supporting me because of Huo Baiwu's support. It would be good if Huo Baiwu died, but since he is not dead, not many people will support us. Joining the Royal Alliance is a humiliation."
Su Yan said, "Alright, I will get rid of all evidence. What happens next is up to the heavens!"
Li Baiqing said in a low voice, "En!"
Huo Qing 'Er also received the news and hurriedly ran over, "Husband, hurry and leave; my second big sister has brought people to capture you."
Li Baiqing calmly said, "I did not poison them. I trust father and mother, so you don't have to worry about me."
Huo Qing 'Er said worriedly, "But this is too dangerous!"
Li Baiqing smiled and said, "I trust father and mother, and I also believe in justice. This matter will definitely be investigated."
Saying these words, Li Baiqing's expression did not change at all, as if he had been wrongly accused.
Hearing this, Huo Qing 'Er nodded; she also believed that her father and mother would not harm Li Baiqing.
Flame White Bird walked in with some people and said in surprise, "Why haven't you run? Did I walk very slowly on purpose? "
Li Baiqing calmly said, "Why should I run? I'm innocent! "
The Blazing White Bird looked at Li Baiqing and wondered if she had wronged him.
Huo Qing 'Er said to Flame White Bird, "Second big sister! For my sake, don't hurt Bai Qing, okay? "
Flame White Bird looked at her little sister and lightly nodded. Flame White Bird lightly nodded.
Flame White Bird brought Li Baiqing into the prison.
The news quickly spread, and everyone knew that Li Baiqing was the biggest suspect. However, everyone was still quite shocked, as Li Baiqing had been about to become the Fire Country's King, yet he had been reduced to a prisoner.
Some people who supported Li Baiqing immediately changed sides, becoming neutral or supporting Flame White Bird. Only a small portion of people supported Li Baiqing.
However, the situation had stabilized a little.
Li Baiqing stayed in the big boss's room. He was a bit nervous in his heart. After all, he was gambling. If Huo Baiwu really found evidence that he had poisoned Li Baiqing, he might die.
Of course, he still looked calm on the surface.
The guard also reported this matter to Huo Baiwu.
Huo Baiwu nodded. In his heart, he also did not believe that Li Baiqing would use poison.
Huo Dongmei asked with concern, "What do you plan to do now?"
Huo Baiwu thought for a moment. "Temporarily lock him up for a few days. Also, continue to collect information. I must find the person who poisoned him."
Huo Dongmei said, "Okay, then I'm leaving!"
Huo Baiwu thought about how Huo Dongmei had accompanied him for such a long time. He nodded and allowed her to leave.
After Huo Dongmei left, she immediately went to find Zhao Fu. At this time, Zhao Fu was ravaging Huo Qing 'er. Originally, she had come to plead for Zhao Fu to let Li Baiqing go.
Looking at the scene in front of her, Huo Dongmei said angrily, "You bastard, I knew that you were the one behind this. You framed someone else's husband and sent him to prison and even treated his wife like this. Can't you do something good?"
Zhao Fu lightly smiled and said, "Did I not do anything good? Didn't I save you and your husband? Have you forgotten about it so quickly? "
Huo Dongmei lightly snorted.
Zhao Fu smiled and said, "You come over as well. We'll talk about this later."
Huo Dongmei obediently walked over.
After an unknown amount of time, Huo Qing 'er lay in Zhao Fu's embrace and looked at Zhao Fu with hope in her eyes. "Can you let my husband off now?"
Zhao Fu replied, "If he really was the one who poisoned him, what would you do?"
Huo Qing 'er shook her head. "I don't believe that he would do such a thing!"
Zhao Fu smiled and said, "What if he is?"
Huo Qing 'er said seriously, "If he dares to do such a thing, I will never forgive him."
Zhao Fu smiled and asked, "Is that all?"
Huo Qing 'er nodded, "Other than that, I don't know what to do!"
Zhao Fu lightly smiled and said, "Alright!"
Huo Dongmei softly said, "I also think that Bai Qing would not die. It should be someone else."
Zhao Fu looked at Huo Dongmei and said, "Who do you think it is?"
Huo Dongmei pouted and said, "I think you're the most suspicious!"
Zhao Fu pretended to be angry and said, "Since you're saying that, I'll leave with you."
Huo Dongmei hurriedly pulled Zhao Fu and said, "No, I'm just saying that there might be more mysterious people like you in the Fire Country."
Zhao Fu lightly smiled and said, "Call me husband and I'll forgive you!"
Huo Dongmei's face turned red and she called out, "Husband!"
Zhao Fu smiled and said, "En! Be obedient. "
Huo Qing 'er's face turned red and said, "Husband! I can separate from Bai Qing, but can you let Bai Qing off? "
For Li Baiqing's sake, Huo Qing 'er made a decision in her heart and understood that she would not be able to be with Li Baiqing in the future.
Zhao Fu looked at Huo Qing 'er in his arms and did not reply and said, "I'm leaving!"
Huo Dongmei asked curiously, "Where are you going?"
Zhao Fu said seriously, "I'm going to find evidence!"
"Oh!" Looking at Zhao Fu's serious look, Huo Dongmei did not resist and just nodded.
Huo Qing 'er looked at Zhao Fu and did not know what to do.
Su Yan was currently getting rid of all evidence, and he would kill anyone who knew anything related to this. This concerned his and Li Baiqing's lives, so he could not allow anything to happen to them.
The door was suddenly pushed open.
Su Yan frowned and said, "Didn't I say that? Don't disturb me if there's nothing important. "
"Long time no see!"
Hearing this, Su Yan's body trembled and all the hairs on his body stood up. He raised his head and looked at the man in front of him, his face filled with terror. This was because the man in front of him was the master of Qin. He was also their lifelong enemy.
Without any hesitation, Su Yan fled to the side. Facing Zhao Fu, he understood that it was impossible for him to fight back.
A wave of power emanated from Zhao Fu's body, directly sealing everything in the room, including Su Yan.
Zhao Fu smiled and said, "We're old acquaintances, why are you doing this?"
Su Yan said coldly, "If you want to kill me, then kill me. Don't talk nonsense, I feel disgusted just looking at you."
Zhao Fu said with a light smile, "As an enemy of Qin, you always go against Qin. I don't know how many soldiers of Qin have died in your hands. Do you think I'll kill you so easily?"
Su Yan's face turned ugly, "What do you want to do to me?"
Zhao Fu said with a smile, "Aren't you curious why I'm here?"
Su Yan was smart and immediately understood. His heart fell to the bottom and his face turned pale. Only now did he understand what a wrong choice he had made. He did not expect that everything was planned by Zhao Fu. Now that they were finished, everything was over.
