Chapter 400 Sacrifice
"Yuwen Changyi is too cunning to gain his trust. So, I lurked in the county guard's mansion to see if I could get any news from this thief."

If you can't get close to Yuwen Changyi, you can only take the next best thing and lurk beside the county guard.

The news that Jing Wang and his wife entered the mansion was hardly known, and this time the county guard was extremely cautious.

It wasn't until the family dinner last night that she was able to see the two of them.

Just when she was trying to find out the true identities of the two, Wang Yuetong took the initiative to find her, which was unexpected to her.

"What disease did the Lord suffer from? Is it related to Yuwen Changyi?"

Wang Yuetong walked to the table, glanced at the figure of the maid outside the door, and deliberately lowered her voice.

Qing Wu frowned, as if she was very worried about the state lord's situation.

"This illness is very strange. Whether it has anything to do with Yuwen Changyi is just a guess. The current situation of the king is getting worse."

"Now they are all lurking around and staring at each other, just waiting for the moment when the lord of the country falls, and eat up all the power in his hands!"

The lord of the country is kind to her, even if it is all she has, she must keep the lord safe and sound.

"Qingwu, the lord and I are going to visit Yuwen Changyi tomorrow. I am worried that Yuwen Changyi's eyes are too poisonous, and it is not easy to see his identity. So..."

"I understand what the princess means. In fact, we can avoid Yuwen Changyi and enter the palace directly."

Qing Wu thought for a while, as if she had made up her mind, she said slowly.

"Let's leave this matter to Qing Wu. Since Wang Hao is the one who can treat the disease for the ruler of the country, she shouldn't be bothered by this matter."

Qing Wu's temperament is very straightforward, and she immediately took over all dangerous actions.

"You don't mean to tell the Lord about this, do you?"

As long as you use your brain a little, you can know what she thinks.

"The princess just needs to wait for the king's summons in peace."

After finishing speaking, Qing Wu said no more, turned around and wanted to go out.

At this time, Wang Yuetong grabbed her tightly.

He gave her a warning look, and then looked at the maid posted outside the door.

Qing Wu nodded and stopped.

Wang Yuetong pushed the door open suddenly and came out, so frightened that the maid outside jumped aside, pretending to be nonchalant.

"Today I really wronged Qing Wu, you must make this matter clear to Lord Sheriff, don't let him blame Qing Wu again!"

"What the lady said is true, I must tell the truth and listen to the master."

The maid hurriedly responded.

"Since this matter is a misunderstanding, the lady doesn't have to take it to heart. In this way, Qing Wu went back."

"Send Qingwu for me."

Wang Yuetong also pretended that nothing happened, and called the servant girl to send Qing Wu there.

After the two left, King Jing came back from the front hall.

Wordlessly, he tied the sachet for her and walked into the door.

Wang Yuetong looked around, and quietly closed the door.

"The situation is as you expected. Qing Wu is someone sent by the king. She said that she has a way for us to avoid the meeting with Yuwen Changyi and go directly to the palace to meet the king."

Wang Yuetong's tone was brisk, and he explained the result of the two people's discussion in one sentence.

"Her method is to take the risk to report the news."

King Jing frowned slightly, he had the same thoughts as Wang Yuetong.

"Qing Wu is very stubborn, she cannot be dissuaded from her decision."

This point, when Wang Yuetong was in Zizhu Forest last night, he had already experienced it.

However, it is undeniable that this is indeed the safest and most appropriate method at present.

Sacrifice Qing Wu's safety in exchange for their chance to enter the palace, and heal the Lord as soon as possible.

Apparently, King Jing also weighed the pros and cons in his mind, so he didn't raise any objections, and only gave a few instructions.

"After the matter is done, don't ask her to go back to the Sheriff's Mansion."

"I've already warned her."

In this way, King Jing felt relieved. In this battlefield without gunpowder, he did not want to sacrifice one more innocent person.

What's more, there are people beside her who care about her.

Because of Qing Wu's report of danger, in the early morning of the second day, the lord of the country had already issued an order to the sheriff's mansion, ordering the sheriff's mansion to quickly send the person into the palace, and heal the lord immediately.

After the county sheriff heard this, he was both angry and puzzled.

What makes him angry is that yesterday he had already gotten angry with Da Sima, and today he was going to send someone over there for him to have a look at, but today he was set up by someone, and for no reason he wanted to send him directly to the palace up.

And what is puzzling is who actually tipped off the country lord to allow a seriously ill person to break through his layers of blockades and learn about these two people.

But no matter how reluctant he is, the sheriff will immediately send him to the palace.

At this urgent time, Yuwen Changyi also sent a letter, saying that he was going to meet the two of them soon.

The sheriff is like an ant on a hot pot, running around in a hurry.

At this moment, his doorman came up with a bad idea for him.

First find two people pretending to be the people the king is looking for, and send them to the palace.Then arrange for the two of them to go to Da Sima's mansion as soon as possible.

Once Da Sima nodded, he immediately arranged for these two people to enter the palace, and then said that those two people were fake, and if they were hacked, there would be no proof.

Although this method is not foolproof, the sheriff who has lost his mind can only make up his mind as soon as possible and use this method.

On the other side, after Qing Wu learned the news, she tried to tell Wang Yuetong about it, and told her to delay it, and then she would convey the matter to the king.

As a result, when the two impostors walked to the gate of the palace, they were ordered to be beheaded by the lord, bluntly saying that the two were impostors.

But the governor of the county had ghosts in his heart, so he didn't dare to say anything, he could only grit his teeth, gave a lot of instructions to the two of them, and sent him directly to the palace.

After making such a big circle, King Jing and his wife were finally able to enter the palace smoothly.

It's just Qing Wu, but she was trapped in the mansion because of this, and she could only wait until the suspicion was resolved before finding a way to escape.

After going through many palaces, I finally saw someone in the king's bedroom.

When he heard that he was going to meet the king in the bedroom, Wang Yuetong knew that his condition was already very serious.

Along the way, King Jing's expression became more and more solemn.

Wang Yuetong saw it, but didn't ask any questions, just patted the back of his hand silently.

When he saw the king, King Jing had a complicated expression on his face, and he gave a big gift to the king who was lying on the sickbed.

Wang Yuetong also followed him and knelt down.

"Ming'er, do you have to be so polite in front of uncle?"

The king's complexion was blue and yellow, but contrary to it, his lips were extremely ruddy.

That clear-cut face was already emaciated beyond recognition.
