"… Suppress the rebels and ascend the throne as the emperor!"
Yangliuqing looked at Prime Minister Wang, who had a solemn expression on his face. His lips parted and he said with difficulty, "How, how is this possible?!"
"Why is it not possible?" Prime Minister Wang raised his head and looked at her with bright eyes. He asked, "Your Highness has been in the Jing Kingdom for a long time. Do you know the eldest princess of the Jing Kingdom?"
Yangliuqing nodded subconsciously.
The eldest princess of the Jing Kingdom, Li MIngzhu, was unparalleled in beauty and martial arts. She also had the ability to govern the country. She was close friends with her martial uncle — — she was her master's strong rival in love.
Prime Minister Wang gritted his teeth and said, "Since the Jing Kingdom has a princess in charge, why can't our Wu Kingdom have an empress?!"
"But …"
Prime Minister Wang looked at her and continued to ask, "Your Highness, do you think that we can still pin our hopes on Imperial Prince Jing?"
Yangliuqing shook her head.
"If that's the case …" Prime Minister Wang kowtowed again and said loudly, "This old official sincerely requests Your Highness to ascend the throne!"
The door was pushed open with great force and two figures walked in quickly.
Wei Liang knelt down on one knee, raised his head, and said loudly, "This official sincerely requests Your Highness to ascend the throne!"
Chen Qing knelt down next to Wei Liang and said respectfully, "This official sincerely requests Your Highness to ascend the throne!"
Yangliuqing looked at their solemn expressions and couldn't help but take a few steps back. A certain sturdy wall in his heart seemed to be shaken at this moment.
…
Li Yi used the extremely sharp dagger that Miss.Liu gave him to make a crutch for Shouning.
If she really had to lie in bed for a month, she would probably die of boredom.
In order to stay here for a longer period of time, she purposely sprained her ankle and worsened her injury. Li Yi was angry and distressed.
She wanted to find a suitable reason to stay. Why did she need to do this? When Li Xuan came back tomorrow, she could pretend to break his leg by accident and let him stay here for a year or so. Wouldn't that be simpler and more effective?
Fang walked in from outside and said, "Son-in-law, those guys were still stubborn at first, pretending to be tough guys. Later on, after a little torture, they were all released …"
The so-called tough guy was only relatively speaking. Fang's "a little bit of torture" was definitely not as simple as he said.
However, this was no longer important. He polished the edges and corners of his walking stick and casually asked, "Were they sent by the emperor of the Wu Kingdom?"
"Yes and no …" Fang shook his head. After thinking for a moment, he said, "They are not merchants of the Wu Kingdom. They are all killers. The heads of Princess Duan Rong and Prince Jing are worth 100,000 taels of silver each. Someone sent an invitation to the martial arts world of the Wu Kingdom. If anyone can catch Princess Duan Rong and that bastard Yang Fu, no matter whether they are dead or alive, they will offer 200,000 taels of silver with both hands …"
200,000 taels of silver as a reward for two people was undoubtedly a big deal. The one who had such a deep hatred for them and wanted them dead the most was the emperor of the Wu Kingdom.
To be exact, Yangliuqing had a deep hatred for him. He was just worried that they would threaten his throne.
Fang continued to say, "The two of them are currently the highest on the bounty list. They should have been targeted by many killers. A month ago, someone spread the news that they are in Shuzhou …"
"As for the two guards, they may be spies of the imperial court of the Wu Kingdom. They have been hiding around them for a long time. This time, they should want to take advantage of them. However, I didn't expect that woman …"
Seeing Bai Su coming out of Shouning's room, Fang glanced at her and continued to say, "I didn't expect Bai Su to be so good at martial arts. Her skill in using concealed weapons is even superb and exquisite. It is rare in the human world and hard to find in the heavens … In short, Miss Yang and the others have been targeted by many people. If they go out alone, they should be extra careful."
After Fang finished speaking, Yangliuqing walked in from outside with Yang Fu.
"Kneel down!"
When she walked up to Li Yi, she glanced at Yang Fu, who had his head lowered, and said coldly.
Plop!
Although Yang Fu was full of reluctance, he still knelt in front of Li Yi.
Yangliuqing looked at Li Yi with an extremely complicated expression. After a long time, he slowly said, "Yang Fu is ungrateful and did such a thing. It's all because I didn't discipline him well. Please punish me, Martial Uncle!"
"You are you, and he is he …" Li Yi waved his hand and said, "You have been secretly offered a bounty in the Wu Kingdom. The bounty is 100,000 taels of silver for each of you. There should be countless people targeting you. When you go out, be more careful. In addition, I don't know if there are spies of the imperial court among your people. It's better to thoroughly investigate them. Don't let today's incident happen again …"
"I understand." Yangliuqing nodded, glanced at Yang Fu, and said, "Yang Fu, you go and kneel outside."
Yang Fu didn't dare to disobey him, so he knelt outside. When the maids and servants passed by him, they couldn't help pointing at him.
"This is the King Jing of the Wu Kingdom …"
"He's still a prince. He's ungrateful and returns kindness with enmity …"
"At such a young age, his heart is already so vicious. When he grows up …"
…
Yangliuqing didn't say how long he wanted Yang Fu to kneel, but he only knelt for less than 10 hours before he fainted. It was unknown whether he was embarrassed or kneeling.
A person's bad nature was completely revealed in this 14-year-old child. If he wasn't a child, or if he wasn't Yangliuqing's younger brother, Li Yi would let him know the price of doing wrong and saying wrong things. However, he didn't have the slightest interest in Yang Fu.
This child was already useless.
Whether they wanted to live in seclusion in the countryside or wanted to continue to rebel and support Yang Fu as the emperor, it had nothing to do with him.
He had to look after Shouning. He was worried that she hadn't recovered from her foot injury and would jump out of bed again …
In the afternoon, Old Man Wang came to find him.
At that time, he was massaging Shouning's sprained foot. She was giggling because of the itch.
The massage technique was taught to him by Bai Su. She said that she didn't want to owe others a favor. In the martial arts world, it's not a burden to have more skills. Looking at the horoscope to predict one's luck, relaxing the muscles and blood, massaging to set the bones, rebellion … These skills, it was better to learn one more. Who knew when it would come in handy.
Old Man Wang knocked on the door and stood at the door. He asked, "Your Highness Gyeong Of Silla, can I have a word with you?"
Shouning smiled every time she massaged her foot. Li Yi had long wanted to run away from the door. Those who didn't know would think that he was abducting an ignorant girl inside …
Li Yi walked into the courtyard and sat beside the stone table.
Old Man Wang sat opposite him.
"Your Highness Gyeong Of Silla and the eldest princess of the Jing Kingdom, Li MIngzhu, must be very close, right?"
Li Yi looked at Old Man Wang. He didn't know what he meant by this question.
He waved his hand and said modestly, "Just so-so …"
Old Man Wang looked at him and asked, "Then what does Gyeong Of Silla think about Princess Duan Rong compared to the eldest princess of the Jing Kingdom?"
Li Yi thought for a while and shook his head regretfully.
In terms of appearance, at this level, there was actually no difference between them. It could only be said that each had their own merits. MIngzhu was the domineering empress type. Although Yangliuqing was a princess, she was the pretty daughter of a humble family. Their identities were not much different …
In terms of martial arts, they were far apart …
In terms of breasts, they were not far apart in the past, but now they were far apart …
In general, they were still not as good as MIngzhu.
Old Man Wang seemed to agree with his conclusion and nodded. His eyes were slightly dim as he said, "The eldest princess of the Jing Kingdom is a genius. Your Highness is indeed not as good as her …"
Li Yi was a little puzzled. For no reason, why did Old Man Wang compare Yangliuqing and MIngzhu?
He wasn't as free as him. He still had to boil bone soup for Shouning to nourish her body.
He stood up and said, "Prime Minister Wang, if there is nothing else, I will leave first. The soup is still boiling in the pot …"
Prime Minister Wang raised his head and suddenly looked at him. His eyes flashed and he asked, "Gyeong Of Silla, if we want to support Her Highness as the empress, is there any possibility of success?"
Li Yi looked at him and was stunned for a while. Seeing Xiao Huan and Xiao Cui walking into the courtyard, he turned his head and said, "Xiao Huan, go and see if the bone soup in the kitchen is ready. Don't overheat it …"
Then he said to Xiao Cui, "Go and brew a pot of tea …"
"Prime Minister Wang's train of thought is very strange …" Li Yi looked at him and sat down again. He praised, "I admire it very much."
