168 That’s Another Price!
Therefore, if he had encountered King Gu Han in the northern barbarian territory, the first thought that ca to his mind would definitely be to silence him and destroy his corpse!
“The reason I’m standing here today is that your border guards allowed it!
When I passed the border, I didn’t lose a single soldier. Even if the emperor of the empire wants to bla , the first to be decapitated should be you good-for-nothings!”
“Good-for-nothings?!
“When you entered the border, there were thousands of people! Just a re refugee camp has reduced you guys to less than a hundred people. In that case, who’s the useless one?!”
Although Pei Qian was at a disadvantage now, he was still sharp-tongued.
He sized up King Gu Han with a faint smile. Unfortunately, it was too dark and the other party’s beard was too thick, so he couldn’t see his expression.
However, Pei Qian didn’t care about this. He stared at King Gu Han for a while longer before saying, “I know that you’re not soone who would disregard the consequences for short-term gain!
Since you took such a huge risk, it ans that the person you’re looking for must be very important to you!
What do you want to do?!”
There were so things that were useless to hide at this point. It was better to expose everything so that King Gu Han would have so fear.
“I’m looking for soone!”
King Gu Han seed to be a little surprised by Pei Qian’s actions. He froze for a long ti before coming back to his senses. Then, he looked at Pei Qian as he replied, “Soone infiltrated my father’s tent and stole his favorite secret treasure. Now that he has infiltrated your territory, I naturally have to find him at all costs!”
“Then why do you have your sights set on our refugee camp?!”
Lin Suisui carefully looked up from behind Pei Qian. Her coquettish voice made Pei Qian shiver in discomfort. However, he still endured it and didn’t reveal anything. He was just waiting to see what Lin Suisui was up to.
“This is?” King Gu Han glanced at Lin Suisui and raised his eyebrows in surprise. There was contempt and disdain in his eyes.
“I didn’t expect you to have a beautiful woman in your company even when you’re on official business!”
“King Gu Han, are you blind?! No matter what, I wouldn’t bring such a person… with !” Pei Qian turned around and followed King Gu Han’s gaze to glance at Lin Suisui. There was a clear warning in his eyes—Think of a way to escape later!
“How can you do this?!” For so reason, Lin Suisui raised her hand and punched Pei Qian. “I abandoned my husband for you. He was so angry that he wanted to kill !
You said that you would bring back to the capital and promised wealth and glory. Were you lying to ?!”
“Stop!”
Pei Qian’s forehead throbbed. He reached out to stop Lin Suisui, but King Gu Han, who was watching from the side, seed to have thought of sothing and suddenly threw his head back and laughed. “Haha, I didn’t expect you to have such a strange fetish. You’ve really impressed !”
“Mr. Pei, on the account that we know each other, if you can hand over the thief you hid in the refugee camp, I swear that I won’t make things difficult for you. I’ll even provide you with a fast horse so that you can bring this young lady back to the capital to enjoy wealth. How about that?!”
Looking at the young man and woman fighting in front of him, who were not giving in to each other, King Guhan simply told Pei Qian, “Mr. Pei, there’s no grudge between us. There’s no need for to harm you. How about that?!”
“I really don’t have the thief you’re talking about!”
Pei Qian pressed down on Lin Suisui’s hands that were about to scratch his face and turned to look at King Gu Han. He sneered in response. However, Lin Suisui, who was in Pei Qian’s arms, spoke at almost the sa ti as Pei Qian and looked at the Khan expectantly. “Is what you said true?!”
“Shut up!”
Pei Qian was about to reach out to cover Lin Suisui’s mouth, but in the next mont, she broke free and moved to the side. The little girl tidied her ssy clothes and looked up at Pei Qian with a smug expression. Then, she turned to look at King Gu Han and said, “I know. He really saved soone!
He was a soldier who was covered in blood and fell on a riverbank outside the camp. He was brought back by Qian He!”
“How do you know so much?!” King Gu Han stared at Lin Suisui with obvious suspicion.
From this woman’s attire and the argunt between Pei Qian and her just now, it wasn’t difficult for King Gu Han to guess Lin Suisui’s background. In his opinion, she was a refugee camp woman who wanted to climb up the social ladder.
In that case, how did she know so much?!
“Because I treated that person’s injuries!” Lin Suisui raised her head smugly and slowly took two steps in King Gu Han’s direction before continuing, “I treated his injuries and took care of him for a few more days, but after he recovered, he disappeared!
I wondered about that person’s whereabouts, but Mr. Pei refused to tell ! Later on, he said that his injuries had worsened and he was dead!
At that ti, I felt that sothing was fishy.
After all, as a doctor, I’ve treated people’s injuries hundreds or thousands of tis over the years!
I’m always certain about whether the injuries on that person’s body are fatal or not! So why did that person, who had been recuperating for seven to eight days, suddenly die?!
It was only yesterday that I realized where that thief had gone!
King Gu Han, guess where that thief is now?!”
At this point, Lin Suisui was actually still keeping them in suspense.
When King Gu Han heard that she was keeping them in suspense, his expression imdiately turned ugly. He stared at Lin Suisui and threatened, “Where is it? Tell quickly!”
“If you want to know, there’s a different price!” Lin Suisui raised her hand and tidied her hair as she glanced at King Gu Han coquettishly. “As you saw just now, Mr. Pei promised to give wealth and glory, but now that a crisis is imminent, he wants to abandon !
I finally realized that n are unreliable! Therefore, money is better. It’s much more reliable than n’s sweet nothings!”
