Good! My stupid son finally rebelled!

"I……"

The man was frightened by Ling Tian's ferocious appearance. He looked at Ling Tian with fear in his eyes: "Your Highness, don't kill me."

"I said."

"I said."

"We are both apprentices of the Imperial Hospital. The Duke taught us all this before he left."

"Duke Xiao asked us two brothers to spread rumors along the way."

"They said that if we can ruin His Highness's reputation, we will be promised wealth and glory."

The man spilled the beans, speaking directly without hiding anything.

Xiao Yuanshan?

Ling Tian frowned: "I didn't expect that this old fox was also involved."

"Your Highness, I am just a nobody. I have told you everything I know. Please let me go." The man kowtowed and begged for mercy, just for a chance to survive.

"Ah."

Ling Tian saw this, but a chill surged in his heart; "Do you think I can still keep you?"

"This……"

The man was shocked: "Your Highness, I am Duke Xiao's man. If you attack me now, he will not let you go."

"ridiculous."

Ling Tian held his long sword horizontally against the man's neck: "Your Highness is the Sixth Prince of Daqian, of royal blood."

"Although Xiao Yuanshan is the Duke of Daqian."

"But he is a minister of the royal family after all. Do I need to ask for his permission to kill someone?"

"In your eyes, is there any royal dignity left?"

hiss!

The man shuddered when he heard that, and then he realized that he had hit a wall, or that Ling Tian would not even think about the benefits.

"Your Highness, spare your life."

The man kowtowed and said, "As long as Your Highness releases me, I will serve Your Highness from now on."

"Your Highness, please let me go."

"Let you go?"

Ling Tian said disdainfully: "It's a pity that someone like you is of no use to me at all."

"Why should I keep you?"

A question.

The murderous intent arose.

A fierce light flashed in Ling Tian's eyes. He exerted force suddenly and the long sword cut the man's neck in an instant, killing him instantly.

hiss.

Zhao Wu came from a military background, so he couldn't help but be frightened at this moment. Ling Tian's move just now was so decisive that it was jaw-dropping. How could such a genius be considered a waste?

Not to mention other things, just the courage to kill with one blow is something that few people present have.

Ling Tian!

Not bad.

Zhao Wu stepped forward and said, "Your Highness is wise."

“Heh.” Ling Tian chuckled and threw the long sword in his hand to the ground, his eyes flashing with frost: “Zhao Wu, you did a good job on this.”

"Your Highness."

Zhao Wu was nervous: "Today's incident was caused by Zhao Wu listening to slander. I hope Your Highness will punish me."

"All right."

Ling Tian waved his hand: "The most urgent task now is to find a way to stabilize the situation. Today, His Highness will not go anywhere. He will stay here with you to spend this most critical day."

"As long as the mortality rate decreases today."

“The situation is barely under control.”

"The deaths of these two people will not stop the rumors within the team. If you really want to atone for your sins, stabilize the situation in the next two days."

Pfft!

Zhao Wu knelt on one knee and said, "Don't worry, Your Highness. Zhao Wu will not let you down."

Ling Tian waved his hand and watched Zhao Wu leave. Chu Wan'er curled her lips and thought to herself, "This guy really has a way."

"Just a few words made Zhao Wu fall in love with him."

Zhao Wu has a strong personality. Once he makes up his mind about something, it is difficult for him to change it. In the future, Ling Tian may have a loyal pioneer by his side.

Li Huatuo came over upon hearing the news. Seeing the two people lying in a pool of blood, he couldn't help but shudder. Ling Tian raised his eyebrows: "Divine Doctor Li, do you also think that what I did was wrong?"

Gulu.

Li Huatuo was extremely nervous: "Your Highness, these guys deserve to die."

"They were infected with smallpox and didn't take their medicine properly, so they died of smallpox in the end."

Smart guy.

Ling Tian glanced at Li Huatuo and said, "We haven't sent any news to the capital for three days. Do you know how to send it today?"

Li Huatuo thought for a moment and said, "Your Highness, I will tell His Majesty that our team has been infected with smallpox and is now unable to move forward."

"We need to wait until the situation stabilizes before we can continue on our journey."

"Ah."

Ling Tian praised: "You are quite smart."

"But many times, being too clever can backfire."

hiss!

Li Huatuo was stunned for a moment: "Your Highness, then we..."

"All right."

Ling Tian was not polite: "No need to hide anything, just report the true situation here to the court."

"Especially the matter of these two guys alienating the relationship between my highness and the crown prince, we must make it clear."

To advance is to retreat!

Li Huatuo's eyes lit up. All the actions taken by Ling Tian were actually telling Emperor Wu that someone wanted to murder me, while also preserving his own retreat.

The word "estrangement" is used in a very spiritual way.

Li Huatuo bowed and said, "Your Highness, I will do it right away."

Insidious!

Chu Wan'er glanced at Ling Tian, ​​who shrugged: "Wife, why are you looking at me like that?"

"Is there something dirty on my face?"

"No." Chu Wan'er shook her head: "Why did I realize only now that you are the biggest dirtier thing? You just passed that news back to Kyoto. Concubine Xiao must be pissed to death by you."

"No matter if you didn't mean it or not, and no matter if what these people said is true or false."

"Your Majesty will ask about it, and then Concubine Xiao will be speechless."

"Why didn't I realize before that you were so mean?"

When Chu Wan'er pouted, a lively look emerged in her eyes, making her look particularly beautiful. Ling Tian smiled evilly: "Wife, are you praising me?"

"Humph."

Chu Wan'er turned around angrily: "I'm too lazy to care about you."

Ling Tian looked at Chu Wan'er's leaving back, a meaningful smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, but he said nothing more. He turned and walked outside the Cuizhu carriage.

Cui Luo saw Ling Tian and felt angry, but she couldn't vent her anger: "Your Highness."

"Are you blaming me?" Ling Tian said bluntly.

"Don't dare."

"Don't be so nervous, I still prefer the unruly you." Ling Tian pulled open the curtain of the carriage, but accidentally saw a glimpse of spring light.

Cuizhu was beaten with twenty boards and was applying medicine on her body. When she heard Lingtian's voice, she was about to get dressed and get out of the car, but who would have thought that Lingtian would pull open the curtain.

In a panic, Cuizhu could only pull up one side of her long skirt to cover it, her cheeks slightly red: "Your Highness... Your Highness."

"Not small."

Ling Tian glanced at Cuizhu. This girl usually wore tight clothes, which hid her slender figure. But now when he took a closer look, she was particularly plump.

Cuizhu's cheeks were flushed as if blood was about to drip out, and her eyes were so panicked that she didn't dare to look at Lingtian.

"Don't be so nervous." Ling Tian threw out a bottle of golden wound medicine: "This is the ointment that I made when I was free in Kyoto. Apply it on yourself."

"You can recover after a night's rest."

Cuizhu took the medicine bottle and was stunned for a moment: "Your Highness..."

"enough."

Ling Tian waved his hand and turned around: "Your Highness knows that you have resentment in your heart. After all, today's fault is not actually yours."

"But you have to understand one thing."

"No matter what happened between you sisters before, you are now my personal maids."

"The only way to establish my authority is to punish you."

"If you have any resentment in your heart, you can take Cuiluo and leave when your condition gets better."

"Find a good family and live your own life."

"The Imperial City is not a place for you to stay."

Cuizhu was shocked: "Your Highness, are you going to drive me away?"

"No." Ling Tian shook his head: "It's just to give you freedom."

"Do not."

Cuizhu quickly shook her head: "Your Highness, we sisters are already your maids, and we are willing to serve you forever."

"forget it."

Ling Tian did not force himself to turn around and leave. At the same time, in the Daqian Imperial City, Liu Jin was handing a secret letter to Emperor Wu: "Your Majesty, this is the news that Li Huatuo sent back urgently."

Sixth child?

Emperor Wu quickly opened the secret letter, and a dark cloud suddenly appeared on his face.

boom!

Emperor Wu slammed his hand on the table and said, "Liu Jin, tell Concubine Xiao to come over here right now."
