There were always people passing through the four main gates of Jing City. The city of Jing’s prosperity caused many to come to Jing to make a living. There even were many foreigners that set down roots in Jing City to live. But at this time at the north gate, not many people were passing through, only some of the public watching from far away.
“Count of Bei Lu is leaving so soon? Why don’t you stay a few more days, ben wang and brothers hadn’t even properly received you, you’re in such a rush.” He Qi looked at the Count of Bei Lu that knelt in front of him. He gave a hearty laugh and reached out to heavily pat on the Count of Bei Lu’s shoulder. He watched as the Count of Bei Lu’s originally pale face become even uglier.
“ “Look at the count’s white face. No wonder he could seduce those unclean and unknown women outside,” He Yuan sat on a tall white horse, staring from half-lidded eyes down at the Count of Bei Lu, “Now you can go far away with that woman freely. Such a cause for celebration. Ben wang will give his congratulations here. Come, present the gift that ben wang has prepared for the Count of Bei Lu’s beloved.”
The Count of Bei Lu had been sentenced to a beating, and shivered as he knelt. When Rui Wang’s gift was presented, his expression changed out of fright. He had seen such a medicine bottle before. Inside was a medicine called “Linked in Countless Ways”. After the person swallowed the medicine, his stomach and intestines would hurt in countless ways. The medicine would sap all energy from the body to the point that suicide wasn’t possible. They had to suffer in pain for an entire day before death.
“A beauty is only fit to use a medicine with a beautiful name, what does the Count of Bei Lu think of ben wang’s gift?” He Yuan jumped off the horse, walking in front of the Count of Bei Lu. He used the tip of his foot to raise the chin, looking at the other’s sweaty state, he revealed a few fractions of mirth, “If you don’t like it, ben wang can give you another gift?”
Hearing Rui Wang put emphasis on the word you, the Count of Bei Lu kowtowed and said: “Thanks to Your Highness Rui Wang for your gift.”
Seeing his state, He Yuan took his foot away in disgust. The little taijian that followed behind him hurriedly knelt on the ground and took out a handkerchief to carefully wipe the tip of his shoe, the disdain clearly displayed.
