Chapter 498: I'll Show You the Body

hing, and lodging during this time, I would like to request that Your Highness allow the Liao Kingdom to send them. It wouldn't be much, just ten million taels of silver and ten thousand fine horses,...Chapter 498: I'll Take You to See the Body

As soon as these words were spoken, Li Yinhǔ's heart leaped into his throat.

At this moment, his first reaction was that the prisoners in the jail might have been replaced, and those he had rescued were all imposters!

This thought made Li Yinhu's limbs go numb, feeling a little at a loss.

"Why, King Zhao, what are you staring at"

Li Chen's voice rang out again, startling Li Yinhu awake. By the time Li Yinhu awoke, Li Chen was already standing before him.

Li Yinhu jolted awake, looking up at Li Chen who was right in front of him. Li Chen's expression was ambiguous, a mixture of a smile and a sneer. The bad premonition Li Yinhu had felt intensified into a palpable sense of crisis. Every pore on his body tightened with fear.

Fear, like a venomous snake, crawled up his legs and reached Li Yinhu's neck, sending shivers down his spine.

Even so, Li Yinhu still had to make a great effort to control his facial expressions so that there wasn't the slightest slip. He forced out an ugly smile and said with difficulty: "My younger brother, my younger brother was just curious about where Your Highness's words came from."

You'll find out soon enough.

Li Chen gave Li Yinhu a deep look, then walked past him with his hands behind his back.

Li Yinhu stood rooted to the spot, his body stiff. All he wanted now was to escape immediately, to get as far away from Li Chen as possible.

But at some point, a group of Dongchang Jinyiwei had stood outside the hall. Those Jinyiwei holding swords stared at him with grim expressions.

Obviously, if I didn't obediently follow Li Chen's orders, these Jinyiwei guards would definitely attack me immediately.

King Zhao, let's go.

I heard Zhou Ping'an's voice in my ear.

He chuckled softly, now there was no trace of the previous fear and unease.

That look was like looking at a rabbit that had fallen into a tiger's den, pitiful and tragic.

"What do you mean by looking at this King like that!"

Li Yinhu feared Li Chen, but he was not afraid of Zhou Ping'an. He growled colorfully and fiercely from within.

Zhou Ping'an smiled faintly and said, "If King Zhao dislikes my gaze, then don't look. However, for the good show later on, King Zhao had better watch carefully."

"Or else, it'll be a shame."

After Zhou Pingan finished his sentence, he left without looking back.

Li Yinhu clenched his fists, the hatred and fear in his heart boiling over to their peak.

But at this critical juncture, he dared not act, nor did he dare show the slightest abnormality.

He could only walk stiffly, under the scrutiny of a team of Jinyiwei guards, out of Xizheng Hall.

As soon as Li Yinhu left the Xizhi Hall, he was immediately put on a carriage and sent swiftly towards the Xicheng Gate.

Through the swaying curtains of the carriage, Li Yinhou's heart grew heavier and heavier.

The Department of Justice prison was in the northwest corner of the capital city, yet now they were heading straight west.

As Li Yinhu slowly approached the Ministry of Justice prison, he could clearly feel that the fire there had been brought under control. Everything seemed to be returning to its normal order.

He didn't know what Li Chen's purpose was in taking him west, but now the situation was completely out of his control. He could only passively allow himself to be led by Li Chen.

The carriage moved swiftly forward, but just as Li Yinhou's heart grew increasingly uneasy, it suddenly came to a halt.

Li Yinhu couldn't wait and immediately jumped out of the carriage.

He wanted to know what "good show" Li Chen had arranged for him.

As Li Yinhu stepped out of the carriage, he looked up to see dozens of corpses on the ground!

These corpses, all clad in tattered and blood-stained prison uniforms, lay scattered across the ground, their hair disheveled.saw Li Chen.Especially Fu Minqing and Zou Chenglong, caught off guard seeing Li Chen standing at a distance watching them, both froze.
