Traveling through the Gaowu Tang Dynasty, Li Kuan and Li Shimin became the second sons of the Prince

"Who agreed..." Yang Wanwan was angry and anxious at the moment, but she didn't know what to do.

"Muasi, can you still stand up?" The Prince of Chu, who had made the girl he loved flustered with just a few words, looked at Muasi who was still lying on the ground without saying a word, and felt helpless: "Didn't you see that I'm here? Are you afraid that Lord Dai will beat you with a stick?!"

“Your Highness the King of Chu…” As a Hu merchant who had been doing business in the Western Regions for many years, Mu Asi certainly understood better than anyone what kind of person His Highness the King of Chu was: “Mu Asi is sorry to trouble you…”

“Heh…” Upon hearing this, His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu sneered, then turned around and sat back on the stool where Yang Wanwan had sat before, and began to directly point out the truth in front of everyone: “Muas, I want to ask you now, you were accused of smuggling salt… What is going on?”

"Someone framed me!" Mu Asi became anxious upon hearing this. He suddenly stood up from the ground, then turned around and bowed to Li Kuan. "Your Highness, the Honorable Prince of Chu, Mu Asi was framed. When my caravan entered the customs with the goods, soldiers arrived soon after and found two large bags of green salt in my caravan... Hey... Although Mu Asi is stupid, he knows that the main production area of ​​green salt is in the Tang Dynasty, not in the Western Regions... Why did I bring the green salt from the Tang Dynasty to the outside of the customs, and then smuggle it in from outside the customs? Does this make sense?"

"Okay, Muasi, I'll ask for you now." His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu saw that Muasi looked angry and Yang Wanwan, who was standing next to him, also looked miserable, so His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu turned his head and looked at Dai Zhou: "Mr. Dai, does this make sense?"

“……”Dai Zhou already knew the truth of the matter, but what could he say now?

Why did the Sui Dynasty fall apart?

Yang Guang's tyranny is one thing, but those aristocratic families... are also...

"Xu Jingzong, Lord Dai won't say anything, so you come and tell me!" When His Royal Highness the King of Chu saw that Dai Zhou didn't say anything, he turned his gaze to Xu Jingzong and said, "You are now my retainer, and if a retainer doesn't tell the truth to his master, he will be punished!"

"Your Highness, I haven't agreed yet!" Xu Jingzong didn't know if he was being forced onto a pirate ship.

"That's wonderful..." His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu found another funny person. He smiled and said to Yang Wanwan beside him, "Sister Wanwan, he actually has a choice..."

"..." Yang Wanwan found that she really liked this unreasonable King Chu.

"Your Highness, the Five Surnames and Seven Families are coming for Miss Yang..." Xu Jingzong knew he couldn't escape, so he just made up his mind and said everything: "Of course, their main target is still you."

"I've already said that I don't want their legitimate daughter." His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu was too lazy to continue talking nonsense with Xu Jingzong about this matter: "And you, from today on, you officially become my retainer, so you should be aware of the Five Surnames and Seven Families."

"Your Highness, I..." Xu Jingzong, who was blocked from both sides by His Highness the Prince of Chu, was now in a dilemma.

"With me protecting you, what else can they do?" His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu sneered at the words, "Also, when you go to sever ties with me, tell me a message - whoever did the Muasi thing should come to the Dali Temple and turn himself in. Otherwise, if I find out... hehe... those old guys should be careful - they might get into trouble from bandits in their own lair someday..."

"..." His Royal Highness the King of Chu's last sentence "bandit trouble" not only made Dai Zhou on the stage tremble with fear, but even Xu Jingzong, who was originally ready to back down, actually tasted a hint of the king's power and the taste of toughness and iron blood from the other party's words.

really……

What your majesty cannot do, your highness the Prince of Chu can do at will.

As for those people that Your Majesty cannot kill...Your Highness the Prince of Chu can also kill them at will.

No wonder those family heads kept cursing and chattering when they mentioned His Royal Highness the King of Chu, but people's eyes couldn't lie - whenever they mentioned His Royal Highness the King of Chu, their changeable eyes revealed not only ill intentions, but also deep fear.

"Your Highness, I understand..." Xu Jingzong now understood that his only way out in the future was to serve His Highness the King of Chu loyally in order to obtain his protection.

The prerequisite for him to be loyal was to go back and completely sever ties with the Five Surnames and Seven Families.

If he wasn't going to do it.

Then perhaps Xu Jingzong would have no "future".

-------------------------------------

After Xu Jingzong expressed his intention to leave, His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu exchanged a few polite words with Dai Zhou, and then, in the other's contemptuous gaze, he left in a swagger with his confidant Tao Daniu who suddenly showed up, as well as Yang Wanwan and her loyal servant Muas.

"Muasi, go over there and wait for me." After leaving the Dali Temple, Yang Wanwan suddenly said to Muasi who was following her, "I have something to talk to His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu in private."

"Yes," Mu Asi heard Yang Wanwan's words and immediately followed the local customs, bowed to Yang Wanwan, and then limped away.

"Daniu, you too, disperse!" When His Royal Highness the King of Chu saw Tao Daniu still standing beside him like a fool, he understood that Yuwen Qing was about to meet another self in the world.

"Marshal..." Tao Daniu wanted to remind the Marshal to be careful of "beautiful women are the root of trouble".

"The king's order is as heavy as a mountain." His Royal Highness the King of Chu raised his foot and gave Tao Daniu a kick: "If this happened in the army, you would have been beaten with a stick long ago!"

"Yes!" Tao Daniu didn't think he was wrong at first, but after he clearly felt the pain in his butt, he suddenly understood a truth: some words should not be said, so it's best not to even say them.

Otherwise you will only be asking for trouble.

“Your Highness, you should be more careful in dealing with Tao Daniu and Xu Jingzong.” After Yang Wanwan led Tao Daniu away, she suddenly said to His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu, who began to smile foolishly, “Except for you, Your Highness, everything else is strange…”

"Qiqiao? Ah... the Qiqiao Festival has already passed..." His Royal Highness the King of Chu's poor hearing has now become a family tradition: "Sister Wanwan, how about I accompany you on the Qiqiao Festival next year?"

"You bad guy... did you listen to what he said?!" Yang Wanwan heard His Royal Highness the King of Chu start to speak nonsense again, and couldn't help but said angrily: "As the saying goes, 'a traitor appears loyal'. You see Tao Daniu is very happy now, but what if he is cheating..."

“Oh my…” His Highness the Prince of Chu looked at Yang Wanwan, who was so angry that her ears were red. He suddenly understood why he liked her: “Don’t worry, Sister Wanwan. With Dou Shuer and Xuan Ce here, I never need to worry about these problems. They will help me deal with these things later.”

“Well… I was overthinking…” Yang Wanwan frowned upon hearing that, then raised her head and looked at Li Kuan: “You know… I used to… So I don’t want you to be betrayed by anyone in the future…”

"I understand." His Royal Highness Prince Chu laughed when he heard this: "Sister is worried about me."

"I just don't want to..." Yang Wanwan lowered her head slowly after hearing this: "Anyway, I don't want anything to happen to you."
