Chapter 43 Nioh’s statement
Since Li Sheng said those words yesterday, Niwang hasn’t shown up much, including during breakfast, Zou Heng has not seen Niwang.
Obviously, the princess was worried about King Niu’s situation at this time, but Zou Heng didn’t worry too much about it, because he knew that King Niu would show up soon, and he would never be hit.
Being able to deal with in a foreign country for so long, finally returning to his own country and having the opportunity to dominate his own destiny, there is little chance that Nioh is willing to give up, not to mention that he has no choice in himself. As the son of the country’s lord, he is also specialized Those who were picked up from Qi, can only move forward, and there is no possibility of retreating.
“The princess is worried about His Royal Highness, King Ren, in fact, it is not necessary. His Royal Highness has been able to live in Qi country for so long without any problems, and now it will be no problem to return to Yu Kingdom!” Zou Heng said softly.
“However, on this road, General Li will go to His Highness every day, but from yesterday to today, General Li has not looked for His Highness. I am worried…!” Upon hearing the words, the worried expression on the face did not disappear, the princess was still one. The worried color of his face.
When Zou Heng heard the words, he smiled and said: “General Li is reminding His Royal Highness. In fact, he has no malice at all, but there are some things that need to be cleared in advance. Will be forced into a rush.”
Having said this, Zou Heng glanced at the little majesty behind the princess, then turned his gaze to King Ren’s room, and continued to speak.
“He is the benevolent king of Yu, but he has been in Qi for too long. He has to put away all his edges and corners. He pretends to be cowardly, so that he can protect himself. But people, if he pretends for too long, Maybe even he will forget his original appearance. To recover, he must first be aware of the problem!”
After saying this, Zou Heng turned around and walked towards his room.
After he was gone, the princess looked at his leaving back, thinking of what he had just said, and reached out to touch the head of the little majesty behind him. She was silent for a while. After a long time, she sighed softly. In a sigh of relief.
Zou Heng, who returned to his room, began to practice every day. He had a better fundamental method, but to improve his strength, he needed to work hard every day.
He actually lacks time now. If he has enough time, there is actually a lot of content he wants to practice, especially in the area of spells, so he can’t relax.
When Zou Heng came back to practice from outside, it was still morning, but when he finished his practice and walked out of the room, it was already afternoon.
Zou Heng felt that he had made a lot of progress during this most of the day of cultivation, and his injuries that had been restored to him had recovered a little.
At the dinner table during dinner, Zou Heng finally saw the figure of Nioh. Compared with yesterday, today’s Nioh has a slightly different feeling. Although there is no obvious change on the whole, it can be seen from the smile. , I still feel a little bit different.
Although Nioh had a very kind temperament before, he obviously used his way of speaking and dealing with people around him to cater to and please people around him. Now Nioh’s smile feels less habitual, and the smile that he deliberately makes has a touch of truth.
After dinner, King Ren took the initiative to invite Li Sheng and Zou Heng to his room, then closed the door and bowed to Li Sheng.
“The general’s words yesterday, a word that awakened the person in his dream. This king has been in the country for too long. He has always been conscientious and cautious, but he is a little accustomed to it. He has forgotten that he has now returned to the country of Yu, and he has not really faced it up. My current situation!”
“Last night, this king thought about it all night, this king finally figured it out. I don’t have to be cautious and not dare to do anything out of the ordinary like I was in Qi country. I returned to Yu country, so I should be my identity. I’m sorry for what I did, otherwise, I’m sorry for the hard work of the general and the soldiers, and I’m sorry for the soldiers who died for me!”
“After returning to the royal capital, this king knows what he should do, but this king is weak. Please help the army at that time. This king will definitely not let the general down!”
Nioh said a lot of words in one breath, and his tone of address was no longer the same as the previous few days, but directly changed to “my king”.
Li Sheng didn’t speak immediately after hearing King Niu’s words. His gaze focused on King Niu for a moment. After seeing that the other party did not hide from him, he slowly stood up and saluted King Niu.
“The Majesty said yesterday that he did not have any malice or dissatisfaction with His Highness. However, the words of His Highness today will make the Ma very pleased. If the Lord of the Kingdom hears His Highness’s words, I believe he will be very pleased. .”
“Next, the general and all the soldiers under his command will surely **** His Royal Highness back to the capital in a safe way. I only hope that His Royal Highness will remember the sacrifices of those soldiers and will help the people of our Kingdom of Yu in the future. More powerful!”
Zou Heng watched the two men’s movements from the side, knowing what happened just yesterday, even if it is over now, Nioh’s changes are not obvious for a while, but the changes in his body should become more and more. Obviously, in the end, whether King Niu can gain a foothold in the royal capital and inherit the position of the head of the country will not be known until later.
However, through yesterday’s events and the scene before him, Zou Heng basically understood that Li Sheng should be the head of the Yu Kingdom, and he arranged for the man who had just returned to the country to assist him.
The matter between the two of them was opened, and then the story was turned over. The three of them sat down again and began to talk about the road.
“A total of 45 soldiers were injured, and 12 of them were slightly injured. Today, they have almost recovered. There are 16 with more severe injuries. It is expected that within three days, even if they cannot fully recover, they will basically It will not affect their continued on the road, but for the remaining soldiers, if their injuries recover, it will take a longer time.”
“His Royal Highness now knows who might be disadvantaged to you in Yu Kingdom, so we must not stay too long in Fengyang City.”
“That’s what I think at the end. We will continue on the road for up to three days. At that time, the soldiers who can go with us will continue to follow us to the capital. If the injury has not recovered, let them stay in Fengyang City for the time being, please. The officials on the side will take care of them and let them return to the royal capital by themselves after they are well.”
Speaking of the next question on the road, Li Sheng immediately explained his opinion.
Hearing this, Zou Heng nodded slightly. What Li Sheng said now was his opinion from yesterday, but he was delayed a bit yesterday and didn’t explain this.
King Ni nodded at this time, “What the general said, this king also agrees. These injured soldiers, let them stay here for the time being. This is very safe for them. They will not return to the capital after they are well injured. Someone will be against them.”
“However, if this is the case, I suggest that we can leave sooner, and keep those soldiers with less injuries. They can take care of the soldiers with more injuries, and we can start faster.”
“His Royal Highness means, let’s set off tomorrow?” Li Sheng heard the words and asked King Ren again.
Nioh nodded and replied: “Yes, if you leave early, you will encounter fewer things on the road. When we get closer to the capital, those who want to kill me will dare not do anything. If you are lucky, , On the side of the royal capital, maybe some people can be sent to pick up the king!”
Hearing Nioh’s words, Li Sheng hesitated a little, then nodded.
“Then, according to His Highness, we will set off tomorrow morning, but we have to work hard for the mage. The injuries on our body are not completely healed, but we have to rush on the road!”
After Li Sheng finished speaking, he turned his gaze to Zou Heng, and the second half of the sentence was completely addressed to Zou Heng.
Nioh’s gaze also forgot Zou Heng, and he also showed some apologies.
Zou Heng looked at the two of them looking at him, smiled slightly, and then said: “Although my injuries are not completely healed, there is actually not much of a serious problem. If you continue on the road, it doesn’t matter, Your Highness. The proposal to leave tomorrow is indeed safer, and I agree with His Highness’s opinion.”
“Mage is righteous, after you arrive in the capital, if the king is in a good situation, you must ask the mage to drink at that time, and apologize for the injury to the mage. At this time, you can only replace the wine with tea. Please bear with me!” Hearing Zou Heng’s words, he picked up the teacup on the table and gave Zou Heng a smile, with a slightly joking tone in his tone.
Zou Heng very cooperatively picked up the teacup and took a sip of the tea inside. He was really thirsty shortly after eating dinner.
“In that case, I will arrange it now!” Li Sheng stood up, ready to make arrangements first.
Since he is leaving early tomorrow morning, he must now prepare the dry food for the next trip, and then decide who will stay and who will continue on the road with them. These are all arrangements he has to make in the evening.
Zou Heng also stood up at this time and went out with Li Sheng. After he walked out of the door, Zou Heng kept his feet and looked back at the room behind him, then stepped again and returned to his room. Inside.
Just like his previous impression of Nioh, this man does have his own thoughts, and indeed because he has been pretending for a long time, he is a little bit into the scene.
And tonight’s performance of Nioh also has some acting elements in it. A person cannot change so quickly. The reason why Nioh can change so quickly is because he knows that Li Sheng needs him to perform. With such a gesture, he now needs to rely on Li Sheng, so he must be like this.
Zou Heng understood this, but whether Li Sheng also understood it, which is a bit hard to say.
