Chapter 367 You want his fingers?
Chu Jie was so angry that he was shaking all over, and at the same time he was very worried. He was not worried about his own safety, but he was really afraid that the emperor's uncle would be threatened because of him.
King Cheng's men brought him a chair, and King Cheng sat down leisurely. After so many years, he finally got back on his feet. Chu Chenfeng thought he relied on the 100,000-man army, but he didn't know that his goal this time was just to capture the little emperor alive.
People should not have weaknesses. Chu Chenfeng is omnipotent when he is out there, but he is so loyal to the former crown prince and even to the little emperor. Haha, it's ridiculous.
The Empress Dowager wanted to get up but couldn't for a while. Nanny Qian was so anxious that she was about to cry.
Seeing this, Chu Jie took out a porcelain bottle from his sleeve and handed it over.
"Madame Qian, feed it to grandma."
Nanny Qian took it and, without caring about anything else, fed a pill to the Empress Dowager.
King Cheng raised his eyebrows but did not stop her. "Sister-in-law, you'd better take care of yourself."
The Empress Dowager took the medicine and her chest felt much better. She stood up with the help of Madam Qian. She still stood firmly in front of Chu Jie and said, "What do you want to do? As long as you don't hurt him, I..."
King Cheng sneered, "Don't worry, sister-in-law. At least for now, I won't do anything to our emperor. But, I need something."
Although he didn't expect that the 100,000-strong army could counterbalance Chu Chenfeng, after all, it was built up with his own efforts and financial resources, so it would be good to have less losses.
As soon as he finished speaking, one of King Cheng's men drew his sword and walked towards Chu Jie.
The few secret guards under Chu Jie fought with King Cheng's men, but the difference in numbers was too great, and they were quickly defeated, with some dead and some injured. The leader of the secret guards was also slightly injured, but he managed to stand in front of them. He was kicked away by King Cheng's men, and the others immediately controlled him.
"Let's first send a great gift to our regent, which is... a finger of the little emperor."
The Empress Dowager lost her balance and almost fell. She grabbed Chu Jie's arm even harder, "You...don't even think about it, you are so presumptuous!"
King Cheng didn't even bother to look at him, as the man with the sword had already come up to him. The Empress Dowager's face turned pale as paper, "Take my finger over, that will work."
King Cheng chuckled again, "Sister-in-law, you think too highly of yourself. Do you think Chu Chenfeng will be threatened for you? Hehe, I guess that even if you die in front of him, he probably won't even blink an eye."
The Empress Dowager became even more anxious, but she didn't know what to do. Sweat was dripping down her forehead. She had never lost her composure like this before.
Chu Jie's face was tense, but he didn't show any fear. He took a step forward and said, "Don't embarrass my grandmother. It's just a finger. I'll give it to you."
The Empress Dowager showed a look of horror and shouted, "Your Majesty!"
He is the emperor, how can he be injured? How can he be the emperor without fingers?
The long sword under King Cheng stabbed towards Chu Jie. At this moment, a palm wind hit the man, who was hit without paying attention and flew out.
"Look at you, lazy people poop and pee a lot, but you have to squat in the toilet at the critical moment."
"Oh, how would I know? I don't know what I ate but my stomach hurts so much."
"You told me to eat less but you didn't listen. You deserve it."
"Well, it didn't delay the business."
"It almost got delayed. I must tell Junior Master Uncle when I get back."
"No, no, no, it's okay if I'm wrong."
"Humph."
Hearing the familiar voice, Chu Jie showed a look of joy, "Brother Yuanruo."
Huo Yuanruo dodged and appeared in front of Chu Jie, knocking down all the sword-wielding people around him with one fatal blow. From the other side, Li Xiaoqi directly cut the necks of several men around King Cheng.
Chu Jie suddenly threw himself into Huo Yuanruo's arms, his eyes red.
Huo Yuanruo rubbed his head and said, "You're scared, right? Fortunately, you arrived in time. Are you injured?"
Chu Jie shook his head and said in a muffled voice, "No, but...but Xiao Linzi is dead."
Although he betrayed him, no matter what the reason, he could not forgive him, but... he was raised by Xiao Linzi since he was a child, it would be a lie to say that he was not sad.
Huo Yuanruo glanced at Xiao Linzi's body and frowned, "Don't worry, I will avenge him later."
Li Xiaoqi grinned, "Hehehe, little emperor, I'm sorry, I ate too much at night and had a stomachache at a critical moment. Are you scared?"
Chu Jie wiped his face and said, "Thank you, Brother Xiaoqi. I'm fine."
The Empress Dowager only reacted at this time and pulled Chu Jie to her side, "Your Majesty, you can't be so reckless. You can't give me your finger."
When Huo Yuanruo heard this, his eyes flickered slightly, and he looked at King Cheng with dissatisfaction, "You, want his finger?"
King Cheng had a very gloomy expression on his face, which looked scary. His men surrounded the men in an instant.
He gnashed his teeth and said, "Except the emperor, everyone else will be killed by me!"
Huo Yuanruo sneered and looked at the leader of the secret guards. "Are you injured?"
The leader of the secret guards stood up with some difficulty, "Nothing."
Huo Yuanruo patted his shoulder and said, "Protect your master well, and leave the rest to us."
Huo Yuanruo came with his big sword and shouted, "Xiao Qi, let's compete."
"okay."
The way the two looked at King Cheng and his group changed, as if they were looking at prey.
The following scene frightened King Cheng himself. He had never known that these two young boys could be so lethal. There were such capable people around the emperor.
Seeing that the situation was not right, King Cheng prepared to flee. He still had people outside, so he went out first. He would wait until a few people escaped from the secret passage and then catch them all in one fell swoop.
Li Xiaoqi discovered his intention at the first moment, and appeared in front of King Cheng like a ghost. He swung his sword, and several guards fell down.
He kicked King Cheng out and he fell heavily at Chu Jie's feet. Li Xiaoqi put his sword against his neck and smiled roguely, "Come on, Prince, tell your men to stop."
King Cheng gritted his teeth and said, "Stop!"
Huo Yuanruo swung his sword, and four or five guards flew out. He looked at Li Xiaoqi with dissatisfaction, "Didn't we agree on a competition?"
Li Xiaoqi chuckled, "My stomach hurts a little, I don't want to fight anymore."
Huo Yuanruo was furious, his eyes widened, "You..." He helplessly stabbed the big knife into the ground, and the whole ground shook, "You failed at the critical moment. If I had known, I would have let the loach follow me."
Li Xiaoqi was unhappy. "Can a loach be as good as me? Can it be as compatible with you as I am?"
"Humph, at least Loach is not directionally challenged. He doesn't need me to accompany him to the toilet, otherwise he won't be able to find the way. Loach won't be like you, having a stomachache at a time like this? Who are you trying to make fun of?"
Huo Yuanruo was completely speechless at this moment. There were really all kinds of people.
