The last person Li Cheng wants to see now is King Zhao,
But he couldn't get people out.
So his mood became worse.
Anyway, they have already torn their faces, Li Cheng didn't bother to pretend anymore, and asked in a bad tone.
"What are you trying to get away from Gu?"
Li Ji smiled slightly, his eyes passed over the prince, and he looked at Lin Qingzhi who was kneeling beside him making tea quietly.
The prince followed his gaze and looked over, his face immediately sank.
At this moment, Lin Qingzhi raised her head, just in time to meet Shang Zhao Wang's long and narrow eyes that were as black as ink, her hands trembled in fright, and she almost spilled the tea.
She screamed in her heart that something was wrong, maybe King Zhao wanted to leave her
She hurriedly put down the teapot and looked at the prince anxiously, only to see that the prince's face was as dark as the bottom of a pot, it was extremely ugly.
Lin Qingzhi thought it over.
With the prince's heart, no matter what the final result is, the prince will doubt the relationship between her and King Zhao.
Otherwise, King Zhao let so many people refuse, why did he choose her
Li Cheng asked coldly.
"Could it be that King Zhao has a crush on the lonely Lin Liangyuan?"
Li Ji asked without answering, "What if I say yes?"
Li Cheng sneered, turned his head to look at Lin Qingzhi who was anxious, and asked in a strange way.
"It's your blessing that King Zhao has a crush on you. Are you willing to go with him?"
Lin Qingzhi shook her head quickly.
"I don't want to!
Since the concubine married His Highness the Crown Prince, she has been His Highness the Crown Prince's.
In this life, this concubine will never serve another man again! "
After she finished speaking, she made a big salute to King Zhao, and begged with a voice full of sorrow.
"My concubine implores His Royal Highness King Zhao to give you a high hand and let me go!"
Seeing this, Li Cheng's expression softened a little.
He looked at King Zhao again and sneered.
"Presumably King Zhao should have heard it very clearly, it's not that he doesn't want to be an adult, it's that Lin Liangyuan doesn't want to be with you.
As the saying goes, twisted melons are not sweet, so I ask King Zhao not to make things difficult for others. "
Li Ji turned the teacup in his hand and said leisurely.
"I don't care whether the twisted melon is sweet or not. I just like to twist the melon off. As long as I twist it off, I feel good."
Li Cheng: "..."
Lin Qingzhi: "..."
I don't know if it's her illusion, but she always felt that when King Zhao talked about twisting melons, his eyes stayed on her head for a moment.
She felt a chill in her back.
Is it melon that he wants to twist off? Or her head
Li Cheng asked sullenly.
"Does King Zhao really want to win people's love?"
Although Lin Qingzhi was just a small good girl, she was also his woman, so how could she be snatched away by others
If King Zhao really snatched Lin Liangyuan from him, where would he put his face
He would never allow such a thing that would damage the majesty of the prince to happen!
Li Cheng secretly made a decision in his heart.
If Lin Liangyuan is the king of Zhao, then he will use this as an excuse to lash out at King Zhao, and tell his father about it, so that he can know that King Zhao is a bastard that even the concubine Ji concubine dares to covet!
Li Ji smiled lightly at this moment, and put the teacup on the table casually.
"I just made a little joke with the prince, why should the prince be so serious?"
Li Cheng looked at him suspiciously, still doubting the truth of what he said.
Li Ji said leisurely.
"Actually, I just want to ask the prince for a servant to help with things.
Could you ask the prince to call out all the people around you so that I can screen them in person? "
Li Cheng couldn't believe it: "It's that simple?"
Li Ji asked back: "Otherwise? I said it before, I just want an insignificant little thing, and what I said is the truth."
Li Cheng felt that this matter was not as simple as what King Zhao said.
While secretly vigilant in his heart, he ordered someone to call all the servants around him.
Li Ji's memory is very good, even if he didn't pay special attention, he knew the number of people brought out by the prince this time.
He glanced over and said, "It seems that there are three missing, why? His Royal Highness is deliberately hiding people, and you are not willing to let me take them away?"
Li Cheng frowned, dissatisfied.
"Is there not enough people for you to choose?"
Li Ji looked at him with a half-smile.
"You can't say that.
Now that I have fulfilled the agreement with the prince, the prince should meet my request.
Could it be that His Majesty the Crown Prince can still speak for nothing? Aren't you afraid of people making jokes if you spread the word? "
Li Cheng knew that the other party was using aggressive tactics, but he couldn't refute it, so he could only obey King Zhao's wishes and ordered the last three servants to be called over.
A large group of people were kneeling in the courtyard, and Li Ji was standing on the steps, looking around at a mass of black heads.
Li Cheng stood beside him silently, staring at King Zhao all the time.
He wants to see what the hell King Zhao wants to do? !
Li Ji sat down on the steps casually, and said to the servants.
"My king is short of manpower, and I plan to choose one of you to take away, but this king knows nothing about you, so I hope you will introduce yourself one by one."
At this point, he pointed to the servant closest to him and said.
"Let's start with you."
The servant who was ordered was very nervous, but he didn't dare to waste time, so he spoke immediately.
"The servant's name is Liu Zhong..."
Li Ji interrupted him: "Come over, stand in front of me, look into my eyes and speak."
The servant named Liu Zhong had no choice but to stand up and stop two feet away from King Zhao.
He raised his head to meet King Zhao's penetrating black eyes, his heart became more and more nervous, and he stuttered even when he spoke.
Li Ji just looked at him calmly.
After he finished his introduction, Li Ji said that it was time for the next one.
So Liu Zhong withdrew, another servant stepped up and continued to introduce himself.
And so on and on.
Until a short servant stood in front of King Zhao.
He was so nervous that his legs were trembling, as if he was going to kneel down to King Zhao at any time, and his speech was a little confusing.
"Slave, slave girl is Sang Zhong, slave girl is thirty-one... no, thirty-two years old, slave girl usually does some rough work, slave girl is clumsy, very useless."
Li Ji heard the other party's heart clearly at this moment—
"King Zhao wouldn't know that I cut the rope back then, would he
No one noticed me at the time, King Zhao certainly wouldn't know.
I don't have to be afraid, I can't mess with myself.
Anyway, it's just a few casual introductions, as long as I get away with it.
For an ordinary person like me, King Zhao definitely doesn't like me, he won't choose me. "
Li Ji showed a satisfied smile.
"Your name is Sang Zhong? This king likes this name, it sounds very auspicious.
You go with me, you are my servant from today on. "
As soon as this remark came out, Sang Zhong was so frightened that his legs went limp, and he knelt down immediately.
