Volume 2 The Tiger Returns to the Deep Mountains Chapter 299 The Bitter Mandarin Duck
Li Tian sat on the chair tremblingly, it was impossible for anyone to see this scene in front of him and say that he was not afraid! Li Tian was the same, he was not a saint, nor was he a dead man, it was impossible to ignore death!
If Nanmen Xiang Rong continues like this, he will definitely bleed to death, although Li Tiantian wants to save him, where does he dare to move at this time? If Zhong Zhixing also breaks his neck with a casual shake just now, how can he be worthy of Yu Linglong?
Looking at Li Tiantian's trembling appearance, Zhong Zhixing smiled and said: "Li Tiantian, you are a smart person, I want to make a bet with you! I remember just now you asked me why I suddenly returned to Tianluo City from the border, so let's let you guess, if you can guess the reason correctly, I will spare you alone! If you guess wrong, all of you will not be able to get out of this room today! How about it, dare to bet?"
Li Tiantian gritted his teeth and said fiercely: "Do I have a choice!"
Zhong Zhixing just smiled at Li Tiantian's words, but did not answer, because this was a question that was not a problem.
Li Tiantian turned his head and glanced at Yu Linglong affectionately, Li Tiantian is not a gambler, what he hates most in his life is gambling! But at this moment, he has no choice! Even if it is for Yu Linglong's only glimmer of life, he has to gamble! If gambling at least has a glimmer of life, although it is small, it is better than nothing! But if they don't gamble, then they will definitely die today, and none of them can survive from Zhong Zhixing's hands!
Li Tiantian exhaled a few deep breaths, he was forcing himself to calm down, if he didn't calm down, he wouldn't be able to concentrate his wisdom to think!
Li Tiantian slowly closed his eyes, Zhong Zhixing was not in a hurry, looking at Li Tiantian with a cat-and-mouse mentality, he also picked up the wine and meat on the table from time to time to eat and drink a few sips, not caring at all about the blood of Nanmen Xiangrong on it.
After a long time, Li Tiantian opened his eyes and said to Zhong Zhixing: "General Zhong is a pillar of the country, so naturally he only listens to His Majesty's holy decree! At this time, although there are constant wars on the northern border, most of them are only small collisions, and they will not cause large-scale wars! Therefore, even if General Zhong leaves the border for a short time, it will not cause much impact! And from the border to Tianluo City, it will take at least a month, and it will be another month for His Majesty's holy decree to be transmitted to the border, and this will be more than two months! Two months ago, when His Majesty was seriously ill, His Majesty General Zhaozhong must have returned to Tianluo City because he was afraid that those rebels would rebel!"
After hearing Li Tiantian's words, Zhong Zhixing's chopsticks that were about to pick up vegetables suddenly stopped in the air, he slowly put down his chopsticks and clapped his hands with a smile, "Li talent, Li talent, you have contributed to the power of the Fourth Highness today! You are really smart, you can even figure out the holy will so clearly, I really underestimated you before!"
"I am willing to lose the bet! General Zhong will not be untrustworthy!" Li Tiantian ignored Zhong Zhixing's praise and said in a deep voice.
Zhong Zhixing nodded, and said with a smile in his eyes: "My words naturally count, but I can only live one person, as for who to live, I will give you time to consider!"
"Don't think about it, please let my wife go. Li Tiantian said lightly.
"No! talent, you and I are already husband and wife, if you want to die, I will die with you! You let me leave now, do you think my Yu Linglong will be the kind of person who is greedy for life and afraid of death! Even if I live today, I will die for you tomorrow!" Yu Linglong said heavily.
Listening to Yu Linglong's irrefutable tone, Li Tiantian smiled bitterly, he knew that Yu Linglong was definitely not joking with him!
"Alas, okay, in that case, then the two of us will go to Huangquan together, and I will marry you in the next life!" Li Tiantian held Yu Linglong's hand tightly.
Yu Linglong's eyes were full of crystals, and she nodded with a smile, "Okay! In the next life, Linglong will marry you, and you and I will go through the rivers and lakes together!"
"Tut-tut, it's really a hard-working mandarin duck, it's a pity that who made you do something you shouldn't do! If you do something wrong, you should die!" Zhong Zhixing's eyes grew cold.
"Hehe, what General Zhong said should be about His Royal Highness!" Li Tiantian swept away the fear in his heart at this time, and he asked with a smile.
"What? You finally admit it?"
Li Tiantian smiled slightly, "I have never denied it, but I am curious who told General Zhong." ”
"Do you think there is anyone in the huge Tongtian Empire other than Your Majesty who can let me Zhong Zhixing do things for him? Your Majesty knows that this matter was done by the Fourth Highness, but the idea must be you! Tiger poison does not eat children, Your Majesty will naturally not kill the Fourth Highness, but since the idea was made by you, and since the matter was done by Yu Linglong, then the two of you should apologize with death!" Zhong Zhixing said sharply.
Li Tiantian exhaled, he didn't expect that although the emperor was terminally ill and had been lying in the palace all day, he knew everything about the wind and grass in Tianluo City!
Although Li Tian regretted it, it didn't help.
He is unwilling to die, unwilling to die!
It's just one step away!
That's just the last step!
Li Tianli and Yu Linglong sat side by side on the ground, and Yu Linglong's head rested on Li Tian's shoulder. Li Tian said guiltily: "Linglong, I'm sorry, it's my fault!"
Yu Linglong shook her head and said softly: "It's okay, I can marry you before I die, it's worth it!"
"Okay, I hope you two will be husband and wife again in the next life!
"Ahem, ahem, this wine is really strong enough, old man, I can't pour a thousand glasses, why am I almost drunk! Hehe, but this wine is really pure! It's been a long time since I've drunk such a delicious wine!"
An abrupt voice sounded, startling everyone present, including Zhong Zhixing!
"What person, come out for me!" Zhong Zhixing shouted angrily.
I saw an old beggar dressed in tatters and sloppy clothes crawling out from under the table, holding a golden chicken leg in his left hand, a jar of wine bottoming out in his right hand, and a flush on his face, which was extremely funny!
"Why are you still here?, weren't you blasted out?" asked Li Tiantian, puzzled.
The old beggar took a break from the wine, "Old man, I haven't drunk the wine yet, how can I just say that I can leave? Isn't this a loss? So I just took advantage of the chaos to get under the table, and then before I knew it, I got drunk, and your wine is really strong enough!"
After listening to the old beggar's words, Li Tiantian was speechless for a while! If you don't drink the happy wine, you will lose money? You are now earning the happy wine, but you have to pay for your life here! Is life more important or wine more important!
"What kind of person are you!" Zhong Zhixing's face showed a seriousness that had never been revealed!
