Chapter 1000 It’s time to go to Anshi City
The next day, early in the morning.
When His Royal Highness the King of Chu, who had a good night's sleep, walked out of his tent and was about to talk to Yuan Tiangang about why two roasted lamb legs were missing from his dinner last night, the latter and Zhang Zhenxuan had been waiting for him outside the tent for a long time.
"Your Highness, we just got up." Yuan Tiangang, who knew the master of the family too well and had to dodge, first dodged the dirt thrown by His Highness the King of Chu, and then quickly pointed at Zhang Zhenxuan behind him, whose robes were stained with blood: "Don't talk to me about the lamb leg first, Taoist Zhenxuan did a great job last night!"
"What?" His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu frowned upon hearing this and said in a bad tone, "Tell me! What did you two do last night?"
"Your Highness, Taoist Yuan and I went to Pyongyang last night." Zhang Zhenxuan said as he looked at Yuan Tiangang, and then, as he had instructed, he reported to His Highness the King of Chu "truthfully": "Originally, Taoist Yuan and I did this on a whim, but after some investigation, we found that there were indeed people in Pyongyang who had evil intentions towards you. Two of them were Quan Gaisuwen's confidants, and one was Cui Shanming, the general defending the city—"
“Zhenxuan, wait a minute…” Upon hearing this, His Royal Highness the King of Chu raised his hand to stop the other party from continuing: “You let me sort it out… So, you two sneaked into Pyongyang City last night and killed people all night long?!”
"Yes." Zhang Zhenxuan nodded after hearing this: "The thieves in the city have now been completely wiped out!"
“Zhen Xuan…” It would be a lie to say that His Royal Highness the King of Chu was not moved, so he called out to his retainer while quickly stepping forward, holding his arm and looking at the other party. Then he sighed from the bottom of his heart: “With you by my side, I don’t have to envy any monarch from ancient times to the present!”
"Cough cough..." Zhang Zhenxuan coughed twice, indicating that he felt a little embarrassed.
"Cough, cough, cough!" Gangzi coughed three times, indicating that even if Your Highness the King of Chu doesn't avoid people, at least you have eyes for this lazy servant of yours!
"Gangzi..." Upon hearing this, His Royal Highness the King of Chu let go of Zhang Zhenxuan and came to Yuan Tiangang.
"Your Highness!" Yuan Tiangang has opened his arms.
"..." Seeing this, His Royal Highness the King of Chu was forced to step forward and give the other person a hug.
Then, the two separated immediately.
"Thank you for your hard work last night." His Royal Highness the King of Chu knew that the "sudden inspiration" that Zhang Zhenxuan mentioned was most likely Gangzi asking him to leave after he felt something in his heart.
"It's not hard, it's not hard. Just my sleeves are slightly dirty." Yuan Tiangang laughed when he heard this, and said that for the sake of His Royal Highness the King of Chu, this little bit of hardship was nothing.
"Of course you are not tired..." Upon hearing this, His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu glanced at Yuan Tiangang unhappily and said, "The one who is responsible for the chopping is Zhen Xuan!"
"This is called a clear division of labor. I am not good at killing people." Yuan Tiangang blinked his eyes when he heard this: "Your Highness, as the head of the family, you must treat everyone equally!"
"Okay, I'll send you to a teahouse in Quanzhou for further study." After teasing Yuan Tiangang, His Royal Highness the King of Chu also decided to give him a substantial reward: "Gangzi, I'll assign you some more people, so that you can make up for your weakness of not being good at killing."
"Your Highness... no need..." Gangzi felt bitter: although he knew that His Highness the King of Chu meant well, he didn't want to risk his life like this every now and then.
"You don't need it..." His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu raised his fist and said, "I haven't settled the bill for the roasted lamb leg with you yet! And you're still making excuses!"
"But I have always been used to being alone." Yuan Tiangang scratched his head, his tone full of reluctance.
"I didn't tell you to take it with you wherever you go." Upon hearing this, His Royal Highness the King of Chu said unhappily, "I'll carve a jade token for you later, so you can mobilize my death squad, but the number can only be 100. If there are more, it's easy to cause trouble."
"Your Highness, you are really a wise leader!" Seeing that His Highness the King of Chu was so considerate, Yuan Tiangang couldn't help but make a decision that went against his master's will: "So, are you interested in this Qimen Dunjia technique?"
"Why would I learn that?" His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu blinked his eyes when he heard this: "Besides, do you really know how to do it?"
"Uh..." At this moment, Master Yuan's mind suddenly flashed with the extremely serious face of his master: "I only know a little bit..."
"Forget it then." His Royal Highness the King of Chu waved his hand and pointed to his own tent: "You two can rest in my tent later. I will send heavy soldiers to guard the surroundings, and no one will disturb you."
"Your Highness, we have a place to live..." Zhang Zhenxuan didn't expect that His Highness the King of Chu would suddenly do this.
"Stop talking nonsense. My bed is big and soft. It's covered with animal skins I hunted in Lingnan. It's a bargain for you two." In fact, Li Kuan could see that both Yuan Tiangang and Zhang Zhenxuan were extremely exhausted both mentally and physically after a night of fighting, so he made such an arrangement.
Don’t be afraid of ten thousand, just be afraid of what happens.
"Then I won't be polite." Yuan Tiangang's eyes lit up when he heard this: "I have long wanted a white tiger skin--"
"You're eating and taking things at the same time?" His Royal Highness the King of Chu widened his eyes upon hearing this. Then, he saw Gangzi's expression begin to change, so he sighed and interrupted the other party's spell in advance: "Okay, okay... I'm stingy. However, when we return to Qiongzhou, you and Zhenxuan can go to my treasury and take whatever you like."
In the past two years, Dou Shu'er has stuffed a lot of treasures into the treasury of the Prince of Chu's Mansion, which is already full of treasures. Li Kuan believes that among these rare collections, there will always be things that Zhenxuan and Gangzi are interested in.
"Your Highness, you are such a kind person!" Upon hearing this, Gangzi immediately bowed to His Highness the King of Chu. Then, as if he remembered something, he added, "In addition, we have also warned Quan Jiushan. He will come to you to apologize in a while."
"Well, you two should have a good rest." His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu thought for a moment, and then said, "We will be going to Anshi City soon..."
