Chapter 119 This Wuyang World(1/2)
Li Danqing was eating steamed buns and walking on the streets of Wuyang City.
Pedestrians on both sides of the street pointed at Prince Li for a while - everything that happened in the Shenyu Palace yesterday had been completely spread throughout Wuyang City.
Not only did Li Danqing not get the position of General Tiance, he was also severely humiliated by Li Sheyuan at the banquet.
In front of all the civil and military officials, he asked Li Danqing to give up the seat that belonged to General Tiance. During the whole process, Li Danqing remained silent, like a bereaved dog.
In fact, without Li Mulin's protection, and with Li Sheyuan's return, the imperial court no longer relied on Li Danqing to stabilize the morale of the White Wolf Army.
In a sense, Li Danqing is a lost dog.
But no matter whether the passers-by around him were sighing or mocking, the person involved, Prince Li, just gnawed the white-flour buns in his hand with relish while walking leisurely.
Soon he passed through the inner city and arrived outside the palace gate of Shenyu Palace.
Today, the one on duty outside the Divine Palace is the Divine Tiger Army, one of the four forbidden armies.
Li Danqing had just walked to the gate of Shenyu Palace when the soldiers stationed in front of the gate reached out and stopped Li Danqing: "The forbidden area of the imperial city, no one is allowed to enter!"
Li Danqing stopped and stood there, nibbling the steamed bun in his hand, looking straight at the soldier in front of him, as if waiting for something.
"Asshole!"
"Do you see who this is?"
"You dare to stop me, General Tiance of Wu Yang Dynasty?"
At this moment, a roar came from behind the two soldiers. Li Danqing looked sideways and saw a man with a resolute face wearing black tiger guard armor walking out from behind the soldiers and came to Li Danqing.
In front of Danqing.
This is an old acquaintance.
That Li Danqing had just returned to Wuyang City when he broke the leg of the Black Tiger Guard Commander Mang Ku.
His legs were still a little weak, but his complexion was excellent, like a pear tree over seventy years old that had found a begonia to crush, its face glowing red.
He stood still in front of Li Danqing, looked up and down at Li Danqing jokingly, and suddenly frowned: "Hey... Why does Prince Li look a little different from the way he looked when he received the token from Admiral Tiance yesterday?"
Is it the same?"
"Isn't it...that the one who was canonized as General Tiance was not Prince Li?"
"But in our Wuyang Dynasty, apart from a great person like Li Shizi, who else can take on such a great responsibility?"
Mang Ku performed his poor performance diligently, as if he wanted to humiliate Li Danqing to avenge his broken leg that day.
But Li Danqing just stood there, reaching out to nibble on the steamed bun in his hand, looking at Mangku expressionlessly.
It looked like watching a sideshow, but it wasn't that great.
Mangku, who was immersed in the pleasure of revenge, soon realized that the development of things seemed to be different from his imagination.
He stopped his exaggerated and artificial performance, looked at Li Danqing, and met Li Danqing's calm eyes.
This is obviously not something that Mangku can accept.
In his opinion, after everything he experienced yesterday, Li Danqing should be sensitive, fragile and cowardly now.
But in fact, Li Danqing stared at him with a scrutinizing gaze, and there was even a faint expectation in the depths of his eyes, looking forward to what kind of sensational performance a clown would have next.
At that moment, Mangku was furious!
"Li Danqing! Do you still think you are the Prince Wuyang? You are nothing now!"
Li Danqing calmly looked at the furious Mang Ku in front of him, and finally made his first action since seeing Mang Ku - he lowered his head and stretched his head over.
Li Danqing's ruthlessness the day before yesterday clearly left a deep impression on the commander. He seemed to be afraid of Li Danqing's sudden attack. When Li Danqing reacted, his face changed and he instinctively took a step back.
But soon, he realized his gaffe, coughed to cover up the embarrassment caused by his overreaction, and then looked at Li Danqing, who stretched his neck and stood in front of him, frowned and asked:
"what you do?"
Li Danqing raised his eyes and glanced at Mang Ku, then pointed at his neck: "Cut me."
"Huh?" Mangku had probably never heard such a request in his life, and he was inevitably stunned at that time.
"Don't Commander Mang hate me so much?"
"Anyway, I'm nothing now, so why not just kill me?"
"Come on, send me on my way as soon as possible!" Li Danqing urged, with a hint of impatience in his tone.
Mang Ku frowned and finally
Yu came to his senses.
His hand tightened on the knife at his waist, but only for a moment before he loosened it again.
It is true that Li Danqing has lost power now, and it is also true that with Li Sheyuan in the White Wolf Army, the imperial court no longer needs to rely on Li Danqing.
Li Danqing deserves to die, but he can't die yet.
After all, he had great achievements and a great reputation. If he died in his own hands now, the imperial court would definitely use his life to give an explanation to the world.
It is obviously not a cost-effective deal to sacrifice one's own life for the sake of temporary convenience.
Li Danqing saw the change in Mang Ku's expression and laughed immediately. He raised his head, puffed out his chest and said: "I gave you a chance to take revenge. If you don't succeed, don't blame me.
.”
"You!" Hearing the ridicule in Li Danqing's words, Mangku suddenly felt angry and was about to say something.
But Li Danqing's body suddenly stepped forward at this moment.
Li Danqing's speed was so fast that Mang Ku had no chance to react. In the blink of an eye, Li Danqing was in front of him.
Li Danqing stretched out one hand, pinched Mang Ku's chin, stared at Mang Ku with squinted eyes, and said.
"Brother Mang dare not kill me, but I dare to kill you."
"So, before you make up your mind to kill me, I suggest you not to provoke me. Because..."
"People like me may be able to..."
"Kill you."
"Do you understand? Lord Commander?"
Li Danqing's voice was very soft, like the autumn rain falling on the tiles in the dead of night.
Clear and weak.
But it just happens to stir up waves in people's minds.
I don’t know if he was frightened by Li Danqing’s words, or if he recognized the fact that he was being controlled by others at the moment.
Mang Ku's face turned pale, and he nodded stiffly at that time.
Seeing this, Li Danqing released his hand holding Mang Ku's chin. The Black Tiger Guards around him finally came to their senses and gathered around with their swords in hand. However, they only showed their armor and did not dare to take action.
Li Danqing didn't care at all about the soldiers who gathered around him. He just nodded with satisfaction at that time, looked at Mang Ku and said, "You're so good."
"Obideable children will have food to eat."
As he spoke, he roughly stuffed the remaining half of the steamed bun into Mang Ku's mouth.
"It's your reward!"
After saying this, he walked towards the gate of Shenyu Palace with a smile on his face, but he didn't even look at Mang Ku, who was shaking with anger.
The soldiers gathered in front of him saw Li Danqing walking towards him, even though they all held sharp long knives in their hands, and even though their number was a hundred times that of Li Danqing.
But facing the approaching Li Danqing, they looked timid and could only give in step by step. Finally, they allowed him to walk out of their surroundings and watched him walk into the Divine Palace...
…
Ji Yuzhi and Ji Yao, the prince and princess, live in Yanhuan Palace together with their mother and concubine.
Naturally, Li Danqing was not allowed to enter or leave the harem at will. There were dedicated palace attendants waiting at the entrance to guide the incoming officials.
The palace attendant who guided Li Danqing was a young eunuch who looked to be fourteen or fifteen years old. He was quite handsome, but he was thin and his face was a little pale. He looked like he had been malnourished for a long time.
Most of the children who enter the palace at this age are like this.
If there had not been an accident in the family, ordinary people would not be willing to let their children suffer such a mutilation even if they had a little chance of survival.
The little eunuch lowered his head and led the way, while Li Danqing followed leisurely behind him.
I don’t know if what happened yesterday made Li Danqing famous. The little eunuch was obviously very curious about Li Shizi. He always turned his head and cautiously peeked back from time to time, although he thought he was doing it unnoticed.
, but little did he know that all of this fell into Li Danqing’s eyes.
"You can watch it if you want. What are you doing in secret?" Li Danqing said at that time, feeling amused.
The little eunuch in front felt his heart tremble when he heard this, and knelt down towards Li Danqing with a plop: "My lord, forgive me! I know I was wrong, I know I was wrong."
The young eunuch's fierce reaction made Li Danqing feel a little dizzy. Although he also understood the rules in the palace, it would not be an exaggeration to say that these lowest-level palace maids and eunuchs were like straw.
, it was probably because the young eunuch entered the palace not long ago that Fang was able to do such a thing.
"Get up." Li Danqing said helplessly.
The little eunuch timidly raised his head and glanced at Li Danqing. After making sure that Li Danqing was not really unhappy at all, he stood up carefully.
