Just when Wu Anyi was about to speak, Hu Tianhua suddenly said: "Sun Shaoxia, it is a great honor to be able to work for the king. Many people are trying to get it. Furthermore, as long as you can agree to this, you and Princess Yan'er will Things will be settled.”
Wu Anyi didn't have a good impression of the old eunuch and seemed a little angry at his interruption. The former glared at the old eunuch and scolded softly:
"Eunuch Hu, you talk a little too much."
It was obvious that Wu Youding arranged for Hu Tianhua to appear here. He knew that his son was a good friend of this boy named Sun Wuming and was a little worried, so he sent the old eunuch to supervise him.
Hu Tianhua immediately shut his mouth and returned to his respectful look. Although he was showing off his power in front of all the officials, he did not dare to make a mistake in front of these princes and grandsons, because he knew in his heart that no matter how arrogant he was, he was just Chu. If the king's dog is disobedient, he can kill it at any time and replace it with another dog. This is the sad thing about eunuchs.
Wang Qizhi heard what the old eunuch or the King of Chu meant, and it was clear that he was threatening him with the incident between him and Yan'er, but Wang Qizhi was used to being free, and he didn't want to get involved in the royal family's affairs, nor did he want to be under the control of others. , so he naturally couldn't agree to this, but for the sake of himself and Yan'er, he couldn't make King Chu angry, otherwise there would be no hope for them.
After much hesitation, Wang Qizhi used the "drag trick" and said: "To be honest, I am just a small role in the next emperor. I have no confidence in the facts you said, so it is better not to agree first, just in case. I have failed the King of Chu's love, and I really deserve to die."
However, the King of Chu was not that easy to fool. He had already expected that this boy would say this, so he had already taught his son the words, so Wu Anyi conveyed his father's wishes.
"My father said that as long as you agree, he will not care about the outcome no matter what."
Wang Qizhi is not a three-year-old child. Naturally, he does not want to believe this. Since ancient times, these people who have stood at the top can do anything for power, let alone a remnant of the previous dynasty like himself. However, the matter has come to this, Wang Qizhi There was no other way. If he was the only one, it would be okay, but at worst he could escape, but if Yan'er was involved, it would be hard to fool him.
Having said that, these royal family members really have no bottom line when doing things. In order to achieve their goals, they even use their own daughters as sacrificial bargaining chips. No wonder Wu Anyi wants to send Yan'er away. If she hears it, I don't know what will happen. sad.
Regarding this matter, Wu Anyi also persuaded his father, hoping that he would not treat Yan'er like this and let her make the decision on her own affairs. But in exchange, Wu Youding scolded her, saying what Wu Anyi knew. All this was not for his own good. Waiting for such words, Wu Anyi had no choice but to lower his head and admit his mistake.
Wang Qizhi sighed helplessly. No matter how he escaped, he still couldn't escape the fate of being used as a pawn, but he didn't want to admit defeat yet and wanted to compete with these high-ranking people.
"So there's no need to discuss it?"
Wu Anyi didn't want to see this situation, so how would he face Wang Qizhi in the future.
After much hesitation, Wu Anyi nodded.
Seeing this situation, Wang Qizhi had no choice but to agree first, but he would definitely not give in so easily, nor would he be treated as a chess piece played at will.
Seeing Wang Qizhi agreeing, Wu Anyi finally breathed a sigh of relief. He turned to Hu Tianhua who was standing aside and said, "Since Wuming has agreed, can you leave? I still have something to talk to him about."
Hu Tianhua bowed to the two of them and said, "I will go back and report to the king right now."
After the old eunuch left, the two started chatting. Yan'er also rushed over from nearby and sat next to Wang Qizhi.
Wu Anyi smiled and said, "How about it? I didn't scare you, did I?"
Wang Qizhi smiled slightly and said, "It's nothing, it's just that I don't know something, and I want you to explain it to me."
Yan'er smiled and said, "There are no outsiders here, so just feel free to ask."
Wang Qizhi said: "I still don't understand why people with prominent status like you wander around the rivers and lakes? Why did Yan'er appear in the cave that time?"
Hearing this, Wu Anyi asked curiously: "Cave, what kind of cave?"
Before Yan'er could speak, Wang Qizhi was afraid that this guy would follow the clues and ask questions and find out his life experience, so he had to explain in person: "When Burial Sword Mountain was destroyed, I was chased by those Jianghu people, so I fled to a cave in Weidi. , it happened that Yan'er was also being hunted, so she also escaped there, and we met like this. Yan'er was seriously injured at that time, so I rescued her."
As soon as this matter was mentioned, Yan'er's pretty face turned red. Seeing her sister's appearance, Wu Anyi quickly asked, "You didn't do anything to Yan'er, did you?"
Wang Qizhi blurted out without even thinking: "How dare I."
Yan'er glared at this guy and then said: "The reason why I appeared there at that time was because my master arranged a task for me and wanted me to go to the Wei area to practice. Unexpectedly, I met a man of black gold on the way. , my identity was exposed, they were outnumbered, so naturally I couldn’t defeat them, so I was injured and later fled to the cave.”
Wu Anyi said: "Actually, we have long been tired of life in the palace. We have nothing to do all day long except intrigues, so we chose to enter the Jianghu to experience. Our father is very supportive of this, because only those who have experienced life and death , will you truly grow up.”
Wang Qizhi asked puzzledly: "Isn't King Chu worried about your safety? What if you die outside?"
Wu Anyi smiled bitterly and said: "You still don't understand our father. He thinks that we can't even save our lives in the world, and we won't have any big future. And how can I take over the throne in his hands, so he still thinks I’m really not too worried.”
Wang Qizhi let out a long sigh. As the saying goes, every family has scriptures that are difficult to recite, even princes and nobles.
Wu Anyi continued: "To be honest, I'm really afraid that you will stay away from us because of your identity. Yan'er didn't get much sleep all night because of this."
Wang Qizhi gently grabbed Yan'er's hand and said, "Don't worry, if I really leave you because of this matter, it means that my friend is too bad and not worth your attention."
Yan'er's eyes turned red again. Wang Qizhi looked at her tenderly and said softly: "It's okay, I won't leave you."
Yan'er nodded vigorously, and her tears turned into laughter in an instant.
