Chapter 101: Let him be the same as Wei Wuji
The next day.
The princess of Chu is here again.
Zhao Changqing was annoyed and asked: "If you have nothing to do, just go back to the capital and find a prince to marry. Don't you feel very annoyed by hanging around in front of my eyes all day long?"
Mi Yue said: "Do you really want me to marry your country of Wei? Or even leave Qingzhou? Don't worry, I will not leave Qingzhou until Wei Wuji's matter is resolved."
Zhao Changqing snorted coldly: "My intention is also very clear. If I want to save your old friend, I will give you 10 million taels of silver. No credit will be given!"
There are still six days left before the deadline I gave you. If you can't get the money by then, I will kill Wei Wuji. Of course, if you are willing to sleep with me, then... it's a matter of course."
Zhao Changqing said the last sentence in a rather evil tone.
Mi Yue heard this and said angrily: "Your Highness, Prince Qi, you have gone too far!"
Of course, I can't afford ten million taels of silver.
Waiting for bed?
How could a princess like herself do such a thing?
Although this Zhao Changqing is, to a certain extent, really admirable and fascinating.
But as a woman, she can only hand over her body to her future husband for the rest of her life. Before that, how could she do something so shameless and humiliating to the family?
Unknowingly, and for some reason, Mi Yue was a little dubious when Zhao Changqing talked about sleeping with him again, not thinking that King Qi did it on purpose.
But in her heart, she still believed that Zhao Changqing was a wise king.
The two failed to reach an agreement, so Mi Yue simply left the palace.
After returning to the inn, Chu Hong said to her: "Your Royal Highness, the flying pigeon sent a message. The meaning of the court is that Wei Wuji assassinated King Qi of Wei State, which was a crime of great disrespect and should be killed.
As for Lingxiao Pavilion, no reply has been sent yet. They seem to be keeping silent. Wuji is the leader of the young disciples in their sect, and he is just abandoned like a chess piece?"
Mi Yue sighed, "In this matter, I really blame you for being too reckless. This princess came to Qingzhou to apologize to Zhao Changqing, which is the result of careful consideration. After all, it is really inappropriate for Chu and Wei to have conflicts.
.
Otherwise, such an alliance would be vulnerable to a single blow in the face of the huge Jin State. But you, after discussing it privately, actually went to assassinate the King of Qi, and also deceived me. You really have no regard for the overall situation.
.
Why don't you all investigate Zhao Changqing before doing this? There are so many masters around him. It is estimated that unless the old monsters in the heaven and human realm take action personally, who in the world can take his life? "
The more Mi Yue said, the more Chu Hong felt ashamed.
As he spoke, Chu Hong knelt down on one knee to Mi Yue and said: "Your Highness, no matter what, you have to find a way to save Wuji! In fact, at the beginning, Wuji just told me that he was going to test
Zhao Changqing, but who knew that things would develop so far that it would actually become an assassination!"
Mi Yue quickly helped Chu Hong up, feeling a headache and said: "Brother Chu, what is the relationship between the three of us? We are close friends, and we have supported and supported him since childhood. Now that something has happened to Brother Wei, how can I, the princess, stay out of it and ignore it?
Moreover, in the final analysis, this matter is all caused by this princess, so I will find a way to rescue Wei Wuji.
In fact, Zhao Changqing told me the conditions for Wei Wuji’s release yesterday, and when I was talking to him today, he still had the same harsh conditions as yesterday, and he has not relaxed at all.”
Chu Hong asked eagerly: "What does he want?"
Mi Yue looked hard, stretched out a finger and said, "He wants ten million taels of silver, and that's why he is willing to let Wuji go."
Chu Hong said in surprise: "Ten million taels? Isn't he too generous? What's more, he is a dignified prince and has no worries about food and clothing. Why does he need so much money?"
Mi Yue shook her head and said: "No matter what he wants the money for, in short, it is impossible for us to raise so much cash in seven days."
Chu Hong frowned and said: "Ten million taels, and it still needs to be done within seven days. Isn't this a difficult thing for someone to do? After seven days, he will kill Wuji?"
Mi Yue was also unhappy and nodded.
Chu Hong was also in trouble for a moment, "This... what should I do?"
Mi Yue said expressionlessly: "I'll think of a solution. You should step back first."
Chu Hong sighed, "Yes, princess."
After Chu Hong withdrew, Mi Yue looked at the tea she had just poured on the table and was in a daze. At this moment, the person who came to her mind was actually Zhao Changqing.
Then, she heard her belly murmur: "Zhao Changqing, everything happened because of me. This princess will give you a satisfactory answer."
After Chu Hong returned to his room, he wanted to lie on the bed and rest for a while, but he tossed and turned and couldn't fall asleep, and his mind couldn't calm down.
Then, he actually went out to find Zhao Changqing.
When he arrived in front of the palace, he said he wanted to see King Qi.
He kept his posture very low and did not say anything, even his words were full of an air of condescension.
But when Zhao Changqing found out, he said: "Why do all the cats and dogs come to see me? No, tell him and let him understand his identity. If he wants to see me, he is not qualified."
As a rising general in the Chu Kingdom, when had he ever been insulted like this? He actually planned to go all out and force open the palace gate, and even injured several palace guards.
After entering the palace, a group of guards surrounded him. He said calmly: "Chu General Chu Hong has come to pay homage to His Royal Highness King Qi of the Kingdom of Wei!"
This time the tone was a little stronger.
Jian Er asked him from a distance: "Humph, you little thief, how dare you forcefully break open the gate of the palace? Do you want to cause another dispute between Wei and Chu?!"
Because the Seven Swordsmen of Jiange usually restrain their own martial arts realm, Chu Hong was unable to understand the specific realm of Jian Er at the moment. For example, Wei Wuji only knew the opponent's realm after he made a move, but at that time everything was unclear.
It's already too late.
Chu Hong said to him: "I don't have that intention. I came here just to exchange one life for another. Use my life to exchange Wei Wuji's life."
Jian Er heard the sound and looked puzzled, so he informed King Qi of the matter.
At this moment, Zhao Changqing was lying on a chair, enjoying the warm touch between the maid's palms...it was a massage. When he heard the news, he was shocked and said angrily:
"Isn't this General of Chu a fool? One life for one? Is this Wei Wuji's life so valuable?"
Jian Yi said beside him: "Did the Princess of Chu send him here?"
Zhao Changqing snorted coldly and said: "You don't need to think about it, you must have sent her. Okay, come here and be polite, let others come over, and just kick open the king's door?"
This woman is really evil-hearted, but since she wants to come to the palace so much, there is absolutely no reason to let her go. Send the order, tie her up, and let him suffer the same treatment as Wei Wuji.
I'm sending someone to tell the Princess of Chu that now it's not 10 million taels, but 20 million taels, and ask her to come over with the money to redeem her, otherwise there's no need to talk!"
He bowed his sword and said, "No."
Then he went to do what Zhao Changqing said.
Not long after, a heartbreaking scream of pain came from the palace, which made people tremble in their hearts.
