In the empty training hall, Qiu Yu sent away the snake girl Quina. Now that he had obtained the antidote from the seeds of the Suo Xin Tree, he no longer had any worries. When it came time to fight, a sinister look appeared in his eyes and he took out the antidote.
He poured out one pill and looked at it carefully. The pill he pressed in his palm turned gray brown and exuded a strange medicinal smell. He swallowed one pill, then put away the porcelain bottle, turned and glanced at the old guy on the bed again.
King Yi was in a coma and had no idea what was going on. Qiu Yu's eyes grew colder and he cursed secretly, "I'm taking advantage of you, old man. I didn't torture you at all. As for you going crazy in your practice, you can't blame me."
, if you had not forced me to express my loyalty, otherwise you would have cut me into pieces, and I would not have given you the fake exercises. I can only say that you brought it upon yourself.
To be fair, Qiu Yu did a good job in not killing King Yi on the spot. As the antidote melted in his abdomen, he felt a cool breath pouring into his meridians like running water, revealing the traces of mystery hidden in it.
The substance made him look happy. Obviously Jiesuo Pill does work, so I have nothing to worry about. Let's wait and see.
Stepping to the front of the stone door, Qiu Yu pressed the bulge on the cave wall with his hand, and the mechanism started. "Boom..." The stone door opened automatically. He stepped out, and the stone door closed immediately. He saw someone waiting outside.
Several leaders stood on both sides of the passage, looking at them with eager eyes.
This group of guys were all sent by the crown prince Gao Chengxiong. After all, he was not very confident about Qiu Yu. He was worried that he was playing tricks. After seeing him for a while, Qiu Yu had not returned yet. Gao Chengxiong quickly ordered more than ten of his confidants to come and check.
He was also afraid that King Yi would blame him, so he strictly ordered his subordinates to wait outside the training hall.
Seeing this group of leaders, Qiu Yu frowned and said angrily: "What are you doing here? Do you want to eavesdrop on the conversation between my consort and His Majesty?" In fact, the stone door is extremely thick and the sound insulation is very good.
It was impossible to eavesdrop outside, but he insisted on saying this, questioning sternly, and acting confidently, showing that he was valued by King Yi. He was still the popular person in front of His Majesty before, and should not be underestimated.
Now that they saw the prince-in-law appearing and getting furious, a group of leaders kept silent, fearing that the king would blame them and punish them. The leader said in a low voice: "Reporting to the general, His Royal Highness is afraid that the king has not recovered yet, so as not to accidentally hurt him."
You sent us here specifically to take a look, and we definitely did not eavesdrop on your conversation with His Majesty. Please forgive me."
Qiu Yu's face softened a little, and he nodded: "Since it is the prince's wish, forget it. Your Majesty has regained his consciousness, so there is no need to worry. Let's go back."
"Follow your orders!" The leader said respectfully. Since no accident happened to the king, and the country of Yi was still the same sky as before, then the prince consort would still be taken seriously, and naturally he could not be offended.
A group of leaders came to the main hall surrounded by Qiu Yu, and everyone's eyes were focused on him. After observing his words and expressions, they saw that this man's face was very good, and he was completely different from the previous sluggishness. He was very proud of himself.
Princess Nishang asked quickly: "How is your father?"
This is what the prince and many leaders want to know, so there was silence in the hall, and everyone listened attentively. Qiu Yu said with a smile: "It's no longer a serious problem. As I said, it was just a small glitch in the practice. It has returned to normal now.
He talked to me about how to launch an attack on Snow Country, and also asked about everyone’s current situation..."
Prince Chengxiong said anxiously: "What did you say?"
Qiu Yu muttered nonsense: "I said that with the hard work of His Highness the Crown Prince, the country is peaceful, no different from before. Everyone shares the same hatred and unites to fight against the Snow Country to the end."
Prince Chengxiong couldn't help but beam with joy, gave a thumbs up, and said excitedly: "Well done, my consort has the forbearance to not tell his father about the unhappiness between us. I admire him very much."
Qiu Yu pretended to be smart and said: "The prince's words are serious. I know that you have been testing me before. How can you really punish me? After all, I am the consort, isn't your brother-in-law?"
Prince Chengxiong was secretly happy. This idiot really knew how to explain himself. It was so interesting! He said with a smile on his face: "Isn't that right? We are all a family."
However, Princess Nishang was displeased and pouted: "Bullshit, we are a family now, and you just wanted to kill my husband. That's too much."
Prince Chengxiong smiled awkwardly and explained: "My good sister, you have indeed misunderstood. My brother is just scaring the prince-in-law. Who doesn't know that he is a mighty general who has been entrusted with important tasks by his father?
It actually plays a vital role, how can I kill you, so don’t worry about it."
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's words are reasonable. Princess, don't say anything else, so as not to hurt your harmony." Qiu Yu said very generously.
"When will Father come over in person?" Prince Chengxiong asked tentatively.
"Three days from now. Although His Majesty is fine, he has been struggling for such a long time and his meridians have been somewhat damaged. He needs to continue to recover in the training hall. I have already told you that the prince will handle many matters on his behalf in the past few days."
In order to stabilize this guy, Qiu Yu deliberately lied repeatedly.
These words made Prince Chengxiong feel relieved and believed them to be true. He felt that he had passed this hurdle. His father still trusted him as always, although he wished that the old man died early so that he could inherit the country and the country and the beauties in the harem. Fortunately, his father did not know about it.
Ah. He said with a cheerful smile: "Okay, thank you very much for your trust, father. I have no choice but to do this."
Qiu Yu added: "In addition, Your Majesty has ordered me to go back to Luoxia Mountain to continue my supervisory duties, to make secret weapons as soon as possible, to prepare for the attack on the Snow Kingdom, and to have Princess Nishang go with me. It seems that I am not alone.
A little worried."
It seemed that the old man still felt that this human boy could not be trusted, so he let Nishang pass by, probably to keep a close eye on him. Anyway, there would always be opportunities to get rid of him in the future, so there was no rush. Prince Chengxiong laughed and said with a smile: "There are many consorts."
I'm sorry, my father trusts you the most. He is probably afraid that you will be lonely in the deep mountains and forests, so he specially asked the princess to accompany you. Then you can go back."
"Then I'll take my leave!"
After greeting the prince, Qiu Yu took the initiative to hold Princess Nishang's delicate hand and walked out to the outside of the cave. Together with a group of waiting wingmen, they flew into the night sky and left quickly.
Looking inside the main hall, Prince Chengxiong sat back on the tiger-skin throne again, with a smile on his lips. Now that this stage has passed, his father will pass the throne to him sooner or later, so he should wait patiently.
Almost everyone believed the prince-in-law's words and did not see any flaws. Only Elder Kaihong was suspicious by nature and frowned, feeling that something was wrong. After all, the boy named Qiu was also a ruthless character and would not protect him even if he suffered a loss.
Others may be deceitful. He said in a deep voice: "Your Highness, let's go over and pay your respects to the king and see what condition he is in."
