"Everyone, watch out!"

Li Zhongtang took the hot water bottle handed by the servant, raised it above his head, and slowly poured it on the man in the cage. The man shook his body violently, stood up and began to dodge left and right, but no matter how he hid, he would

The scalding hot water could scald his naked body from the scattered iron rods, until finally, he could only helplessly hold on to the railing, trembling and letting out a long and shrill moan.

Someone in the crowd couldn't stand it anymore. He glanced at his face and couldn't bear to see it. A hand suddenly grabbed Chu Yu's forearm firmly. He turned his head and saw Jian Yao's face and couldn't help but feel his heart tremble. At this moment, she seemed to have come from hell.

The envoy, his whole body soaked in chills, his strange golden eyes glowing red, stared at Mr. Li who was laughing.

At this time, the body of the person in the cage also gradually changed, and the originally smooth skin was slowly covered with a layer of blue-black scales.

"Look!" Li Zhongtang shouted loudly, "There are rare birds and exotic animals everywhere in Western Ze, but have any of you seen this transforming humanoid monster?"

There was another commotion in the crowd. King Jing'an stroked his beard and smiled. He walked around the cage and asked slowly: "This thing is indeed rare, but I don't know what kind of monster it is?"

Li Zhongtang said proudly: "The prince is unaware of something, this is the Jiao man from Nanyang!"

As soon as he finished speaking, there was a burst of laughter in the garden, and someone laughed loudly:

"There is no need for Li Zhongtang to deceive us who are ignorant. Twenty years ago, the Jiao people fought with our Xize beast army and there were dead bodies everywhere. How could we not have seen the Jiao people? This Jiao man is covered in sharp thorns and has a ferocious face.

It can't transform. Although this monster has scales on its body, it is just like a human being. How can it be called a dragon?"

After hearing this, King Jing'an turned and looked at Li Zhongtang, as if waiting for his explanation. Li Zhongtang did not panic but said with a smile:

"Since I said it was a dragon, I naturally didn't dare to deceive the prince. This monster can be presented at the birthday banquet and it certainly has its own magic. Come on! Bring some sharp knives and guns!"

Chu Yu's arm was so painful from being held by Jian Yao. He had a vague feeling that maybe this monster had something to do with Jian Yao. He wanted to ask but felt it was inappropriate at this time. He turned around and saw that Jian Yao's expression had softened for some reason.

After coming down, he even became numb and indifferent. Seeing Chu Yu looking at him, he just said lightly: "I want that monster, no matter what, help me get it from King Jing'an!"

After a while, the servant brought a sharp spear. Li Zhongtang looked at the people around him and said, "You should watch carefully!"

After saying that, he stabbed the spear into the cage. The spear tip penetrated into the flesh of the monster's back, and blood oozed out. The monster inside groaned, and suddenly stood up to resist, and sharp thorns suddenly appeared on its body.

The black claws grabbed the spear on the back from behind and broke it with a "snap", and the whole person rushed towards Li Zhongtang outside the cage.

That Li Zhongtang quickly retreated, avoiding the sharp claws extending from the cage, and laughed: "Haha, look, is it a Jiao Man? Isn't it!"

There was a murmur below, and someone shouted:

"It's really a dragon! Kill it!"

"Yes, kill it, the soldiers who sacrificed their lives for Nishizawa!"

"Kill it!"

King Jing'an was unfazed, his eyes drifting in the direction of Jian Yao as if there was something in the corner of his eyes. Jian Yao, who was next to Chu Yu, surprisingly looked leisurely and contented, swinging the folding fan in his hand and playing with the fruits on the plate boredly.

"Chu Yu!"

Jian Yao's voice was not loud, but King Jing'an not far away could vaguely hear it. People in the garden started pointing around the cage, and some stood up and picked up spears and started teasing the monsters in the cage.

"What?" Chu Yu turned his head and looked at Jian Yao.

"Do you know about the battle between the Jiao people and the beast army twenty years ago?"

Chu Yu shook his head, "I had just been born at that time. How could I know clearly? I just knew that the war was not something that could be described as ordinary 'tragic'."

Jian Yao nodded, and Chu Yu couldn't help but asked in surprise when he saw how quickly she changed: "Don't you want to save that Jiao man?"

Jian Yao raised his eyebrows and sneered: "Jiao Ren? Is this wimp in the cage considered a Jiao Ren?"

"What? Isn't it?"

"If all the Jiao people in Nanyang are like this, how could Mo Qi be so powerful in the world back then? Don't be ridiculous!"

King Jing'an seemed to have heard their conversation. Looking over here, Jian Yao picked up the tea cup at hand, lowered his head and took a sip, glanced at King Jing'an from the corner of his eyes, and said again:

"There are all kinds of wonders in the world, and you, Xize, are so pampered. Did you know that someone has developed a strange potion that can drastically change a person's body shape?"

Chu Yu's eyes widened and he was dumbfounded, and some of the ministers around King Jing'an also began to whisper.

"You...you mean...this dragon man is fake?"

Chu Yu pointed at the monster in the cage that was dripping with blood at the moment. Jian Yao closed his folding fan and lowered his voice slightly and laughed: "Shh, don't say this nonsense. Since everyone says it is true, he is true!"

Before Chu Yu could recover, Jian Yao pulled his arm and stood up and said slightly loudly: "Master, this bloody drama is too boring. Let's go back to the palace as soon as possible!"

"Okay... okay..." Chu Yu was pulled by her to stand up and say goodbye to King Jing'an. Jian Yao left him and walked down. When he passed the cage, he looked down at the exhausted monster, snorted coldly, and muttered to himself.

Walked out of the garden.

Under the green tiles and vermilion eaves, with cigarette smoke lingering and sparkling lights, there is a graceful beauty lying down. Jian Yao puts one hand lightly on her beautiful face, slightly revealing her slender jade fingers, resting her elbow on the mandarin duck pillow; holding a Luo fan in one hand, gently holding it in front of her

Fu, who looked like a god of the underworld, was completely dazzled by her noble temperament when Chu Yu broke in and froze at the door.

"What's up?"

With his almond-shaped eyes slightly raised, Chu Yu suddenly remembered what he meant. He stepped forward and said slightly excitedly: "My uncle promoted Li Daoling's official position and assigned him to be the Sima of Incandescent City. But everyone in the court understood that this was an overt promotion and a covert demotion. Compared to him,

It turned out that he was an official

The subordinates only covered the sky with one hand, and Baichi, who had no power, really gave him a headache. In addition, Baichi also had Xue Kun, who was originally at odds with his uncle. How could he be willing to listen to Li Daoling's control when he had Baichi's military power?

!”

Chu Yu spoke too hastily, which inevitably made his mouth go dry. He sat down and took a sip of tea, then raised his head and carefully looked at Jian Yao's face.

Jian Yao knew in his heart that Li Daoling he was talking about was Li Zhongtang who presented the treasure at the birthday banquet two days ago. She deliberately provoked him that day and didn't expect King Jing'an to fall into the trap. After listening to what Chu Yu said today, it seems that what he said at that time also had some effect.

played a big role. Of course, she didn’t think that Jing’an

The king is so easy to deceive, maybe he transferred Li Daoling just because he was too arrogant, or to contain Xue Kun. In general, Jian Yao didn't believe that King Jing'an would fall into the trap so easily, or maybe he wanted to give himself
