"Thank you! Thank you! "Thank you …"

Inside the wobbly carriage, Zhao Xiaoxue began to repeat the same words in a weak voice.

In the past, talking was very easy, but now, Zhao Xiaoxue felt that talking was even more tiring than taking out a scalpel.

Especially when she saw the large, pitch-black ground beans in the carriage, Zhao Xiaoxue felt as if the sky was going to fall and the earth would turn dark. If she could, she really wanted to slap her own mouth.

Everything was fine. Why would she say the latter part of the sentence? The ten 'thank you' could make her mouth go numb. What would be the result of twenty 'thank you'?

"..." "Thank you!"

It wasn't easy to complete twenty 'thanks'. Zhao Xiaoxue stretched out her finger and took out a bean from the tall hill and put it to the side. After completing this action, Zhao Xiaoxue once again helplessly said, "Thank you."

Since she couldn't continue like this, Zhao Xiaoxue decided to take an extreme method. She said 'thank you', but her eyes had already begun to sneak a peek at the man beside her. Just like before, the man began to close his eyes and rest.

"Cough, cough!"

The man didn't respond to Zhao Xiaoxue's probing cough. Seeing this, her courage increased. She carefully moved her ankles and then turned her body. It was for no other reason but to block the man's eyes and start her plan of relocation.

Success! Zhao Xiaoxue secretly smiled in her heart. She still said 'thank you' and then quietly extended her finger. This time, she didn't just take one bean.

He grabbed two of them with one hand and carefully threw them to the side.

When she looked back, there was no expression on his face. Hearing this conclusion, Zhao Xiaoxue became even bolder. As long as she could say 20 'thank you', she would grab a bunch of beans from the ground.

"Aren't you tired of holding three in one hand?"

"I'm not tired!"

Just as Zhao Xiaoxue answered, she froze on the spot. She turned her head and saw the man who had just been resting with his eyes closed looking at her with a smile. That smile looked very strange no matter how she looked at it.

Ah!" You... When did you get behind me?

"Not too long ago, you probably changed the ground beans from one to two, and then from two to three!"

Hearing the man's words, Zhao Xiaoxue realized that she was tricked by him again. He knew what she was planning from the start, but he didn't expose it. When she was about to finish moving the bunch of beans, he said, he really did it on purpose!

"What do you want?"

Zhao Xiaoxue was in the wrong and her voice was weak.

"This King sees that you like moving the three of them together, then why don't you move these ground beans three times!"

"What?" You... "You …"

Zhao Xiaoxue was too excited to speak.

"If you want to go back on your word, This King will not force you. It's just that I don't know who said they don't want to be tricked, nor do I know how it feels to be tricked. From the looks of it, those words are just words!" This King believes in others too easily. It's really... "

"Alright!" Alright, I'll repeat myself three times! "

Zhao Xiaoxue had lost to this man who was both stingy and crafty.

"Thank you! Thank you! "Thank you …"

The night was long, and one could only hear the sound of the wheels in the team before the sad voice of a woman appeared.

"Gather!" "Gather!"

At the yamen of Chu Country's west relay station, someone had been shouting loudly since early in the morning. However, it seemed that the sound wasn't loud enough, and the rest of the yamen people were still feeling dizzy. They didn't know what had happened.

The person became anxious and started beating the gongs and drums with one hand and the hammer with the other:

"Gather!" Gather! Your Highness the Southern King has arrived! "

"What?" You've come from the Southern King's Palace? "

In the middle of winter, he was only wearing his undergarments as he ran out. Although he was just an inconspicuous cooking official at the station's yamen, the person who came was the Southern King. How could he not be anxious?

However, if he was just a prince, Hei Zi would not be so afraid, because this sickly prince had the gold medal bestowed by the Emperor.

It would have been fine if he was just holding the gold medal, but this prince actually liked to punish people with the gold medal. After so many years, wherever his majesty the Southern King went, there were no prisoners because all of them had been beheaded.

So, in Blackie's eyes, how could this Prince Nan Wang not be a sick king? He was simply a living Yama King. When he heard that Yama King had arrived, how could he not be afraid?

When Hei Zi rushed to the yamen's small courtyard, he discovered that there were quite a few people who were like him. Each and every one of them wore thin clothes and stood in the morning breeze, even though they were shivering with cold, no one dared to complain.

"Why are you all dressed like this?"

When the horse chief saw that most of his men were wearing their undergarments, he was immediately shocked.

"Attendant Ma, didn't you just say that His Highness the Southern King has arrived? Since the Southern King had arrived, who would dare to be late? Isn't this killing me? "

"That's right!"

"That's right!"

"..."

The team echoed in agreement. Even Blackie, who was not a good soldier, could not help but nod at the back of the team.

"But if His Highness the Southern King sees that your clothes are in disarray, I wonder how he will punish you?"

As soon as Elder Ma finished speaking, the entire team started crying.

"Oh my god!" It's going to behead me no matter what! "

"..."

Seeing this bunch of useless subordinates, the Chief Knight was extremely worried. However, he still had something he needed to do. He shook his head as he continued to search the group.

"That... Where is Guan Xiaoru? "

Hearing the postmaster's words, the people standing in the front row were confused.

"Attendant, who is Guan Xiao Xun? A rookie? How come I've never heard of such a person? "

Hearing this question, the chief looked at the other party as if he was an idiot before he continued to search. Finally, he locked onto his target within the group and just like the rest who weren't dressed neatly, the man wiped away his tears.

"Guan Xiao Xun, so you are here, don't cry!"

The relay came to Blackie's side and patted his shoulder to comfort him.

"Master, who is Guan Xiaoru? Why does this name sound so familiar? "

It would have been fine if other people didn't know, but the person in front of him didn't know who Guan Xiao Xun was.

"You're asking me who Guan Xiao Xun is? Guan Xiao Xun is you! "Look at you, to think that you've even forgotten your own name. When the Southern King passes on his majesty's name to you later, don't you know who you are?"

Hearing the postmaster's words, Blackie was instantly stupefied. What? If His Highness the Southern King wanted to summon him, wouldn't that mean that he wouldn't be able to protect his head?

"My name isn't Guan Xiao Xun, Guan Xiao Xun was picked by my parents. I'm called Hei Zi now, Hei Zi doesn't want to die!" He didn't want to lose his head! "Wow, wow!"

Hearing Hei Zi's sorrowful cry, the other colleagues in the team all wiped away their tears of sympathy.
