Chapter 91: Qing'er's Family Affairs
readx;? After Ji Du returned to his palace, he stood in front of the mirror, looking at half of his face in the mirror, the anger in his heart exploded again, and he smashed himself in the mirror with one punch!
He had already seen the Holy Hand Physician in the Soul City before he saw his father, and the right eye of this face was completely blind, and the atrophy and withering of the face was caused by the loss of a lot of vitality. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 The soul physician can only heal and detoxify, and there is no good way to recover from the disfigurement and blindness of this condition. Even the Holy Hand Physician couldn't help it.
"Will my face scare Qing'er, will Qing'er hate me even more because of this?" Ji Du touched the right side of his face and muttered to himself in frustration. Then he suddenly roared with a hideous face: "If I don't break your body into ten thousand pieces, I will be thundered to the top!"
The attendant standing outside the door heard the movement inside and hurried in.
"Second prince, has something happened?"
Ji Du stared at his entourage fiercely, and viciously instructed him word by word: "You go and spread the news that I am going to marry Qing'er within a year! Spread it to any place in the Seven Great Empires! I don't believe that this Takiki can't come back! If he really hides like a turtle with a shrunken head and can't come out, then I will also let him feel the taste of losing his beloved woman!"
......
"Grandpa, have you rescued Jiang Li's brother?" Xia Qing'er saw Xia Jiang walk in, ran over and asked eagerly.
Xia Jiang touched Xia Qing'er's head with great affection, nodded to her and said, "My little Qing'er entrusted her grandfather with her business, how could her grandfather not finish it?"
Seeing Xia Qing'er's face full of joy, Xia Jiang remembered what had just happened in the imperial palace, and a trace of sadness appeared between his eyebrows.
"Grandpa is the best! Qing'er is going to leave the imperial capital tomorrow to find her brother, I'll accompany my grandfather tonight, okay?" Xia Qing'er took Xia Jiang's big hand and said coquettishly.
Xia Jiang was silent for a moment, and finally sighed heavily, telling Xia Qing'er about today's events, and at the same time telling the reason for his decision.
"Qing'er, grandpa is sorry for you...... But my grandfather is the protector of the Haote Empire, and he is the patron saint in the hearts of thousands of people, and my grandfather can't help but think about the people!"
Xia Qing'er was startled at first, but then she changed into an indifferent expression and said to Xia Jiang: "Grandpa, don't worry, Brother Jiang Li said that he would become the first person in this continent within three years! Isn't it still a year before my wedding, before this year, Brother Jiang Li will definitely come back to marry me and take me away!"
"You believe that kid like that?" Xia Jiang was also very surprised by Xia Qing'er's attitude, he originally thought that Xia Qing'er would make a lot of noise and seek death and life, but he didn't expect this to be the case.
"I believe it, because he is my brother Jiang Li!" Xia Qing'er's eyes were full of confidence and pride, as if the reward was the god in her heart.
Xia Jiang nodded with satisfaction and said with a smile: "My baby Qing'er has grown up! The young man who can make you change so much and trust you completely must be an extraordinary person! Grandpa also believes in him!"

Five days later, after waves of turnaround, Jiang Li and the Storm Bear Mercenary Group finally came to the Land of Thunder - the Rice Empire!
Originally, the distance between the Hot Empire and the Rice Empire would only take a day to reach through the teleportation arrays of the major cities, but the teleportation arrays could only accommodate a dozen or so people at a time, and there were hundreds of them, and it would take several times longer to teleport in batches.
In addition, there are constantly pursuers sent by the Hott Empire on the road and mercenary groups that have received bounty orders to intercept them when passing by other empires. Resolving these troubles along the way is not only costly, but also time-consuming. Therefore, arriving at the Rice Empire in five days is already economical and fast enough.
Because Jiang Li, Li Kui and several captains took about 20 people to go first, and ordered the people behind to gather in the imperial capital of the Rice Empire at the end. So they were much faster than the big forces behind.
After entering the border of the Rice Empire, several people went through several twists and turns along the way, and after a tiring journey, they first found a tavern located nearby. More than two dozen people poured into the tavern, sat down at a few tables, ordered some fresh food, wine and meat, and began to eat freely.
"Finally arrived at the Rice Empire, there should be no pursuers from the Hott Empire. Hu Sandao, who was sitting opposite Li Kui, grabbed a whole roast chicken in his hand, and said to everyone with a greasy mouth while tearing the meat.
Li Kui put his index finger to his lips and made a small gesture, he looked around casually, feeling that no one was paying attention to his side, and reprimanded Hu Sandao: "Third brother! Don't talk nonsense like a torn cotton trouser waistband with your mouth open! Although the pursuers are gone, these seven empires are full of bounty orders, in case you say that your mouth is overheard, it will be troublesome again!"
Hu Sandao smiled hesitantly, scratched his head with his big grease-stained hands, stopped talking, and only cared about eating chicken and drinking.
Running through the encirclement and fighting along the way, Li Kui didn't have a chance to say a few words to Jiang Li seriously, he saw that it was the right time, so he picked up the wine bowl and took it to Jiang Li, who was sitting next to him and drinking silently.
Jiang Li picked up his wine bowl and touched the wall of the bowl with him, and the two of them dried the spirits in the bowl together. The taste of this Rice Empire's wine is quite different from that of the Hott Empire, and when you drink it, it is not so spicy, but has a faint sourness, which is very unique.
But Jiang Li was thinking about Xia Qing'er in his heart at the moment, he didn't just have to say goodbye to Qing'er until he could see Qing'er again, although Qing'er said that he wanted to look for him, but this world is so big, and where can it be found so easily in the vast sea of people.
"Brother Jiang Li, people can't live in the past, they have to look forward! Especially a heroic young man like you, you will definitely make great achievements in the future!" Li Kui whispered in Jiang Li's ear to comfort Jiang Lidao.
Jiang Li pursed his lips and nodded with a light smile, looked at Li Kui and said, "Since we have arrived in the Rice Empire, what are Brother Li's plans next?"
"Next, after the brothers in the back have gathered, I will go to the Rice Empire to lead the general. Li Kui patted Jiang Li, and said with a smile: "I don't think you have any plans, brother, and I also appreciate your talent very much, why don't you join my Violent Bear Mercenary Group as a captain?"
Although the conversation between Li Kui and Jiang Li was not loud, several captains at the table heard it, and they all echoed it and smiled: "That's right! That's right! Come to our Violent Bear Mercenary Group, you are our old nine!"
"Our boss's kindness to his brother is not bragged, he will live well in the future, and he will never forget us!"
"Brother Jiang Li, you can join us!"
Jiang Li looked up at everyone and smiled apologetically, and said, "Everyone has seen the previous separation, and they must also know that I still have a Soul Nine mercenary team! I'm afraid that I can't accept everyone's kindness, so I can only understand it." ”
Several people tried to persuade Jiang Li again and again, but they couldn't persuade Jiang Li, and they all felt very sorry, but they could only give up.
Jiang Li stood up and toasted them one by one to apologize, and said, "After tonight, let's say goodbye, I will inquire about Brother Li Kui's General's Mansion in the future and come to visit Brother Li Kui in person!"
Just as everyone was greeting, someone at the adjacent table suddenly shouted, attracting the attention of Jiang Li and the others.
"Really!?, the granddaughter of Saint Xia Jiang?" the man asked, looking at the person across from him with a look of surprise.
"What are you doing so excited! The second prince of Haote is going to marry the granddaughter of the Saint Xia Jiang a year later, I just heard what others said!"
"I don't think this is a fake! If the relationship between the imperial prince and the saintly granddaughter is not true, who would dare to spread it indiscriminately?"
