Chapter 1388: Words or Swords?

ying that, Li Yinhu took out a silver note and said, "Take this to buy tea for the brothers."The captain hastily refused, saying, "No, no, how dare I It's an honor to serve the prince...""Here you go....Chapter 1388: Wen or Wu

Li Chen's words left the steward, writhing in pain, unable to answer yes or no.

Li Chen didn't expect him to say anything good at all. He didn't even glance at him and walked straight away.

A group of people walked past the steward, and at the end, Xiao Chuanzi smiled sinisterly at him. He stepped on the steward's finger with his foot, and in the latter's shrill scream, Xiao Chuanzi said softly: "Your Highness not killing you is already showing mercy. Be good to yourself. As a servant, following the right master is the most important thing."

After he finished speaking, Xiaogzi also left.

The steward, enduring the pain, struggled to his feet with the help of others and then went to report the whole incident to King Ning.

Facing the pitiful steward and his tearful report, King Ning merely said in a flat tone, "I see."

He seemed to have no expectation that the butler could stop Li Chen at all.

"To be so resolute about leaving, could it be that Zhou Changshou and the others have gotten in touch with the Crown Prince"

Ning Wang muttered to himself, then immediately said, "Come here."

Someone approached the king of Ning, and the king ordered: "Keep a close eye on the crown prince. Watch where he goes, who he sees, what he does, and what he says. Big or small, I want to know everything clearly. Once you find Zhou Changshou and them..."

Speaking of which, King Ning furrowed his brows and paused.

The trusted aide waited for a while, but there was still no follow-up. He took the initiative to ask: "If discovered, what should I do"

A flash of murderous intent crossed Ning Wang's eyes as he said, "Send a team of elite warriors, dressed in ordinary people's clothes, to strike directly and kill them. After the killing is done, leave immediately without leaving any trace."

His confidant's heart skipped a beat, and he asked again, "But what if the Crown Prince objects"

"Also kill!"

King Ning said fiercely, "In this city of gold, as long as I am here, heaven will not fall!"

"At your command."

The confidant received the order and quietly withdrew.

After everyone left, King Ning's gaze and expression were uncertain.

Looking out the window, he pondered for a moment, then turned abruptly to his desk, picked up a pen and began writing an order. He then tapped the table with his hand.

Another person appeared before the King of Ning.

“Go with my decree and order the Yan Yun Sixteen Cavalry to be on full alert, ready to surround Jincheng at any time. Make sure not even a fly can get out. Also, prepare for war. If things become impossible, immediately deploy troops to defend Gansu and Shaanxi. Be prepared at all costs where the territories of Central Plains and Jincheng border each other.”

After everyone left with their summons, the King of Ning looked out the window and said in a low voice, "Prince, I hope you don't force me to that point."

While King Ning made numerous arrangements and preparations, Li Chen had already arrived with his people at Jin City's largest... brothel.

The brothel, also known as a Qinglou.

Those in the know understand what "qinglou" is for.

"Hey, grandpa, come play!"

No matter what dynasty or time period, the service in entertainment venues is always the most enthusiastic and thoughtful. Especially for a young master like Li Chen, who has a handsome face, wears fine clothes, and obviously has money, he will definitely receive the highest level of service when he comes to such a place.

So when Li Chen appeared, women immediately surrounded him. The air was filled with fragrance, and the sound of their sweet voices made it impossible to think of anything else but pleasure.

Li Chen, with a playful smile, lightly touched the woman's palm and said suggestively: "This young master came to Jin City with my family to attend to some business, and as an outsider, I haven't had the pleasure of experiencing the delights of Jin City's brothels. Tell me, what kind are they Literary or martial"'s face, turning his once well-maintained face into a bloody mess.The grinding of the soles and the uppers caused Wang Teng to let out a cry of pain. His face flushed red, whether from shame or anger...
