ATSWM Chapter 21.2

Chapter 21.2 Only Say Three Words

    On the top of the wall, that little girl who looked exactly like his daughter, is waving her arms, bawling and shouting. 

   She is not. 

   King Sang’s eyes darkened. 

   Their family’s Little Mulberry would never make this kind of ugly appearance. 

   This woman, is that Meng Wuyou. 

   He slightly narrowed his ferocious tiger eyes, and his gaze fell on the jade token in his hands. The jade token flashed, a clear and calm voice floated out—— 

   “Let her jump.” 

   King Sang stroked that huge beard of his and roared with laughter. 

   “Withdraw the troops!” 

   The archers neatly put their weapons back to their backs. 

   The Sang state’s army paid no more attention to Han Shaoling, who still stayed on the wall. They set out their marching formation neatly and retreated to the inner Great Wall like a tide. 

   Han Shaoling: “……” 

   What a good ‘lifting stone to only end up with hitting one’s own foot’! 

   Fortunately, at this moment, the underworld demons had almost all retreated. Under the protection of his own personal guards, he grabbed the ignorant Meng Wuyou. After leaving countless dead bodies behind, they finally withdrew to the inner Great Wall in a mess.

   In about half a shichen’s time, nearly one third of the personal guards were lost. 

   Even Han Shaoling’s eyes had become green. 

   After getting back to the inner Great Wall with great difficulties, only to see King Sang who looks like a fierce and angry giant with both arms crossed in front of his body, sitting on a large black wooden chair in the middle of the gate, blocking the way. 

   Behind him, the archers line up with their bowstring pulled to the fullest, emitting a sparkling elemental spirits’ light. 

   “You are so great. Han Shaoling, you are so great.” A mouth with a fake smile appeared amidst the thick beard. “Using such a counterfeit, to replace my baby daughter. Young people really have great ideas. ” 

   Han Shaoling’s scalp becomes numb. 

   “King Sang,” he took a deep breath and said, “This matter concerns the reputation of Madam. Some words, we’d better talk about it in private.” 

   King Sang was shaking with laughter. His whole body’s armor was clanking and he said, “Bah! The daughter of King Sang, I, am a very upright and righteous lady! But you, Han Shaoling, sheltering a Three Evils and have a vicious mind. Today, you still want to instigate this King to start a fight against a friendly You state. What makes you so capable of doing that?” 

   Han Shaoling suddenly lowered his head and said, “Since King Sang knows that this woman is from Three Evils, then should also know my helplessness and predicament.” 

   At this moment, he can only give the weak impression. 

   “On the big wedding day, my wife was met with mishap. My heart was torn with grief, and drowned my sorrows in wine every day.” Han Shaoling’s voice floated out low. 

   As soon as he said this, Sang Chengyin immediately felt the same. He was fixedly staring at Han Shaoling, but the man hung his head, his expression could not be seen. 

   “Father-in-law has seen it too. This woman closely resembles my wife. This son-in-law was momentarily confused and infatuated, and made a big mistake. It’s even useless to regret it now and can only do my utmost to make up for it.” 

   Sang Chengyin stroked his beard and laughed. Looked around to the left and right, he said, “Take a look, King Han has also become a coward. Even has started to play the family card[1]?” 

   Han Shaoling suddenly raised his head, and his eyes shot two biting cold lights: “However, my wife did not listen to my explanation, disregard my difficulties, and left the Capital of Han without permission. Before that, she even caused a rumor with You Wuming and made me lose face! This matter, is it not the fault of Father-in-law’s poor teaching towards his daughter?! “
