Chapter 296 It's important to save people
After seeing the honey, the big black bear stopped chasing people, holding the honeycomb and chewing on it like a child, and occasionally patted the butterflies that landed on its nose.
Xiao Tingyan looked at the big black bear with great relief, and suddenly saw a wisp of red smoke rising from the southeast.
That was his unique signal bomb, only Ling Ying and Ling Feng had it. It seemed that something had happened to Tang Junning.
His eyes narrowed, "Let's go quickly."
Nie Ying led everyone behind him. When he was about to go down the mountain, he stopped again. His throat was dry, and he asked Xiao Tingyan, who was not distracted in front of him.
"Your Majesty, do we really want to take people there?" He was worried that so many years of preparation would be wasted in a place like this.
Xiao Tingyan stopped and glanced at everyone, "This is my king's private matter and has nothing to do with the world. How many of you are willing to follow me?"
"Your Majesty's business is our business," everyone shouted in unison, "Your Majesty, it's important to save people."
"The princess once saved so many people in Qingzhou. We are willing to save the princess."
Seeing everyone saying this, Xiao Tingyan clasped his hands in his fists and scanned everyone's faces respectfully without saying anything else.
At the foot of the mountain, Zhai Rang and Wang Jiyin, who were secretly ambushing, saw a group of men and horses coming down aggressively. They thought it was the men from the East Palace. Before they could breathe a sigh of relief, they saw Xiao Tingyan's dark face looking over.
"Your Majesty, it's great that you are back," Zhai Rang reacted immediately and threw himself under Xiao Tingyan's horse, tears streaming down his face, showing his loyalty.
Wang Jiyin also reacted quickly and threw himself next to Zhai Rang, "Your Majesty..."
Before he could finish speaking, Xiao Tingyan directly picked on the two of them and continued to gallop towards his residence.
When Huang Jin heard the noise, he was so frightened that he almost lost his soul, "This living King of Hell actually came back alive, what should we do?"
"What are you afraid of? In the worst case, we will fight to the death!" Mrs. Chen rolled her eyes at Jin, who was lustful but not bold. "Don't worry, I'm here."
As soon as he finished speaking, Xiao Tingyan walked in with his sword in hand. He was full of murderous intent and his eyes were like ice in the middle of winter.
"Where is she?"
If Tang Junning hadn't been found yet, he would have killed this couple right now.
"My lord, I will not misunderstand you. The princess is taking a break here," Mrs. Chen stepped forward, her eyes filled with emotion, she glanced at Xiao Tingyan, and the black cat in her hand let out a dishonest "meow".
She had never liked Jin Jin's bullying behavior, but now that she saw such a masculine man, she wished she could just pounce on him.
Huang Jin felt anxious, but now he could only rely on Chen to survive, and he didn't dare to do anything to her, so he could only gouge her out from behind.
Xiao Tingyan strode into the room and quickly controlled Huang Jin and Chen.
At first, Huang Jin struggled a few times, but Chen was calm and kept his eyes fixed on Xiao Tingyan.
Tang Junning lay on the bed, frowning.
"Hua'er, I'm here to take you home."
He called out, but when there was no response, his heart skipped a beat. He took another step forward and put his hand on Tang Junning's forehead. Only then did he realize that she was very hot.
"What did you do to her?"
Huang Jin's legs were so frightened that he immediately reported Chen, "Your Majesty, this is none of the villain's business, it was all done by this woman."
Mrs. Chen snorted coldly. She had not placed her hope on gold.
"Antidote," Xiao Tingyan's eyes narrowed and he pinched Chen's neck with his big palm.
"Your Majesty, she knows how to bewitch, please be careful, Your Majesty," Nie Ying reminded from the side.
Chen's face suddenly turned purple from suffocation, and she couldn't breathe smoothly, but she still smiled, "Your Majesty, just kill me. The antidote is my blood. Give the Princess a drink and she will wake up."
"My lord, you heard it, she did all this. She is just a lunatic and has nothing to do with the villain."
"Noisy."
Xiao Tingyan uttered two words coldly, and Ling Feng hurriedly dragged the gold out, blocked his mouth with a rag, and tied his hands behind his back to the grape rack.
Huang Jin screamed twice, feeling unwilling to do so.
Nie Ying stepped forward and kicked her twice. Just now, when the prince saw the signal from the village, he directly mobilized his internal energy to come back. After struggling so many times, he didn't know if his body could still bear it.
"You'd better pray that the prince and princess are fine, otherwise, I will make you unable to live or die."
Huang Jin met his bloodthirsty eyes and knew that he was not talking nonsense, so he didn't dare to struggle anymore and just leaned on the shelf.
Chen's eyes bulged, but he still refused to hand over the antidote.
"My lord, stop it quickly. If you pinch her again, she will die."
Ling Feng reminded from the side, "If she dies, it will be even more impossible to find the princess's antidote."
Xiao Tingyan suddenly let go of his hand and glanced at Chen, "My patience is limited. If you are willing to hand over the antidote, I can guarantee your life. If you don't hand it over, I will let you live."
Taste the pain of flesh and blood. Under my hands, even a dead man can spit out a few words, let alone a woman like you."
"Why don't you kill me now, Your Majesty?" Chen breathed heavily, her throat hurting as if it were being burned by fire, and her voice was hoarse. "It's impossible to get the antidote from me!"
Xiao Tingyan frowned, clenched his left hand into a fist, and said to the people below, "Take it away. No matter what, you must let her hand over the antidote."
The room became quiet again, and everyone did not dare to express their anger. Everyone looked at their noses and hearts, for fear that Xiao Tingyan would get angry and bring disaster to Chiyu.
"Your Majesty, what should I do with the gold?"
Looking at the sleeping face with eyes tightly closed on the bed, Xiao Tingyan was not in the mood to care about this at the moment. He just waved his hand and said, "Let's watch the escort for trial first and leave it to Dali Temple for processing."
At night, Xiao Tingyan still stayed by Tang Junning's side, his thick eyebrows furrowed tightly.
"Your Majesty, you can go back and rest, as long as there are slaves here to watch over you."
Xiao Tingyan shook his head and insisted on staying by Tang Junning's side.
"Your Majesty, the Princess has collected the evidence of the gold crime and ordered the slaves to hand it over to the Prince."
Xi'er knew that now was not the time to talk about this, but she didn't want to delay what Tang Junning had ordered.
Hearing this, Xiao Tingyan was even more heartbroken. If he hadn't insisted on it, why would she have followed him through this muddy water?
"Leave it to Nie Ying. Return to Beijing tomorrow and hand it over directly to Dali Temple for disposal."
Xi'er moved her lips and wanted to say something, but finally she closed her mouth.
The next day, Tang Junning opened her eyes and saw a bearded man in front of her, staring at her with two dark circles under his eyes.
"What are you looking at?"
Tang Junning grabbed the pillow next to her and tried to pat it over. Seeing Xi'er beside her, she was both happy and scared.
When the princess woke up and saw the prince, shouldn't she be happy? Why did she become angry instead? She got angry at the prince.
