Chapter 170 - 170 Besides, My Husband Is Boring
170 Besides, My Husband Is Boring
“Mr. Pei, even if you want to make up a story to make King Gu Han let you go, at least make up a convincing one!”
At this moment, Lin Suisui had already recovered from her initial shock. She reacted quickly and denied it to the end. “I’m the Crown Princess?! Ha, do you think King Gu Han is so easy to fool? The Crown Princess of the empire is a doctor in the refugee camp?!
Do you yourself even believe what you just said?!”
“That’s because the Crown Prince has been deposed now. In order to avoid being hunted down, you two had no choice but to hide in the refugee camp and survive! I was just being kind and covering up for you two. In the end, you two actually stabbed me in the back!”
Pei Qian retorted derisively!
“Shut up!”
King Gu Han felt that everything in front of him was baffling.
He had almost been led astray by the two people in front of him!
What was his purpose in bringing the troops over this time? It wasn’t for the sake of getting involved in this inexplicable emotional entanglement!
What did it have to do with him whether the woman opposite him was the crown princess or not? He only needed to obtain what he wanted and bring it back to the royal court to hand over to his father, so he could obtain his father’s reward. Why did he have to waste time here?!
“I have no interest in your feud, and I don’t want to know who you are. I just want to ask you one last time, where exactly is the thing I want?!”
“I just said that. Didn’t you hear me clearly?” Lin Suisui tilted her head with a puzzled expression. However, she quickly restrained the innocent look on her face and said with pity, “How pitiful! I didn’t expect you to lose your hearing at such a young age! How about this? On account of you generously giving me 50,000 taels of silver, I’ll say it again!
“My husband has what you want. There’s good news and bad news. Which one do you want to hear first?”
King Gu Han wanted to roll his eyes.
He didn’t want to hear any of it!
“Stop playing tricks on me! I’m telling you, you’d better behave yourself. Otherwise, don’t blame me for chopping off your head with this scimitar in my hand!”
In order to increase the intimidation of the threat, King Gu Han deliberately raised his hand and waved the machete that had been unsheathed.
At this moment, Lin Suisui seemed to be really frightened. She shrank back again and pulled Pei Qian to block in front of her. Then, she put on a pitiful look and complained to King Gu Han, “I’ll tell you everything I know. Even if it’s not for your sake, on account of the 50,000 banknotes, I won’t lie to you!
However, if you don’t want to believe it, don’t blame me!”
“Speak!” King Gu Han said through gritted teeth.
“The bad news is that the people and things you want are with my husband! My husband is about to fight to the death with Mr. Pei, so you definitely can’t use Mr. Pei’s life to threaten him into handing over the things to you!
The good news is that my husband and the others are not far from here. Perhaps they can see our every move very clearly now! Therefore, if you use me and Mr. Pei as bait now, you might really get what you want!”
Lin Suisui nodded and looked at King Gu Han with sincerity as she spoke.
“You’re spouting nonsense! What you said makes no sense!
“At first, you said that your husband and Mr. Pei are irreconcilable. In that case, he even wants you guys to die. How can he be willing to exchange what I want for your lives?!”
Not only didn’t Lin Suisui’s words gain King Gu Han’s trust, but she also received a sneer from him. “I can understand your desire to live!
You’re really smart. If you really want to live, you should treat others sincerely!
“Why should I believe you and give you a way out despite all your lies?!”
“You’re so fluent in the empire’s language. You must have studied the history and customs of our empire a lot, right? However, from the looks of it, you’ve probably only studied superficial things. If you return to Chanyu, you should quickly change teachers!”
Lin Suisui clicked her tongue and muttered in disdain. Seeing that King Gu Han was really enraged this time, she immediately changed her words and explained honestly, “It’s like this. He wants us to die, but he wants us to die by his own hands!”
“Isn’t that the same?!” King Gu Han was a little confused by Lin Suisui’s words, but for some reason, he felt that the woman’s words made sense.
“How can that be the same?!” Lin Suisui blinked and hesitated for a long time before saying, “For example, you probably have a wife!
Ahem, if not, your beloved concubine can be an example as well!
“You’ve been leading troops on the battlefield for months without returning to the palace. If your beloved concubine, your father’s most trusted guard, or an important minister confess their feelings to each other and spend the night watching the stars and the moon, do you think…”
“Shut up!” King Gu Han roared angrily before Lin Suisui could finish speaking. He regretted asking this woman to speak. He was so angry that he felt dizzy.
“Putting yourself in my shoes, can you understand how my husband feels now?!
My husband brought the thing you wanted to the capital to vent his anger! But if you can satisfy my husband’s wish now, why would he risk his life to enter the capital?!”
“That does sound reasonable. From your words, you seem to know your husband very well. In that case, why did you betray him and have an affair with Mr. Pei?!”
King Gu Han looked at the expressionless Pei Qian, who was leaning against the entrance of the temple. He hit the nail on the head at this moment!
King Gu Han thought that Lin Suisui would look a little guilty, but to his surprise, the woman in front of him was unfazed. She met his gaze calmly and smiled. “I know my husband, but my husband doesn’t know me well!
“Besides, my husband is dull and boring. How can he know how to make me happy?!”
