The Ultimate Prodigal Son - Chapter 36

[Chapter 36 King Jing Invites]

It must be that this guy Lin Tian took the opportunity to set a trap for him, which made him say so many treasonous words!

Just when Ma Zhuowen said this, the faces of the people around him suddenly changed. Is

he saying that King Jing colluded with others to frame him?

Not to mention that Lin Tian and King Jing have no relationship at all, he is just the son of a governor, why does King Jing have to mobilize troops?

“What you said is ridiculous, did I force you to say these?”

“Liangzhou City is under the control of your family, did you say this?”

“Liangzhou City is under the control of your Ma family, everything in the city is yours, but you said this yourself?”

Lin Tian asked again and again, step by step.

Faced with Lin Tian’s fierce questioning, Ma Zhuowen couldn’t help but take two steps back, with cold sweat dripping on his face.

He had known that King Jing suddenly appeared in Liangzhou, and something big must be happening, and he was thinking about trying to please him.

But now it seems a little difficult!

“You…you framed me!” Ma Zhuowen’s throat was hoarse.

He couldn’t say anything to defend himself now, and could only point at Lin Tian palely and weakly.

It must be that Lin Tian and King Jing teamed up to frame him!

Otherwise, how could Lin Tian suddenly say so many righteous words!

According to his character as a prodigal son, this is absolutely impossible.

But now he dared not say it out loud, and the words he blurted out impulsively just now have made him regret it very much.

“Your Highness King Jing, please believe me, this is just my momentary impulse! I know I was wrong, please forgive me, King Jing!”

Ma Zhuowen pounced at King Jing’s feet and hugged his calf tightly.

He is extremely scared now!

This is His Highness King Jing, the biological son of the current emperor!

Although he already has a fiefdom, it is not guaranteed that he will be able to sit on the throne in the future battle for the throne!

Even if he does not sit on the throne, he will be the biological brother of the next monarch!

In any case, offending His Highness King Jing is equivalent to offending his own life.

“I didn’t know that a small governor had such great power. I will investigate this matter thoroughly!” King Jing said, not paying any attention to Ma Zhuowen who was wailing at his feet.

“Whether it was an impulse or a deliberate decision, you have already said it, and there is no reason to take it back!” Lin Tian spoke first.

This righteous look made the little prince Su Rui very satisfied, and he kept nodding his head in a mature manner.

Lin Tian thought it was a little cute, and couldn’t help but smile.

“That’s right! Regardless of these, you robbed women in the street, oppressed the people, and gathered people to fight! All these things are not something a son of a governor can do!”

As soon as Lin Tian finished speaking, Su Rui continued.

What he read in the sage books every day can finally be used, which made him a little excited.

The hands behind him were already tightly clenched. Seeing this, King Jing silently put his hand on his shoulder to show his support.

After receiving the support of his brother, Su Rui turned to look at Lin Tian, who gave him a supportive look.

For some reason, after receiving the support of his brother and Lin Tian, Su Rui felt full of strength and spoke in a louder voice.

“What’s more, you have no respect for the law and despise the law. You can be sent to the government!” Su Rui said, and the expression on his face became even more angry.

Seeing that it was almost done, King Jing patted his shoulder calmly.

Su Rui still felt a little unsatisfied, but he also listened to his brother’s words very much. He pursed his lips and stopped talking.

“Your Highness King Jing… Young Master…” Ma Zhuowen spoke tremblingly.

He was extremely scared now. He couldn’t imagine how his father would deal with him if he knew what was happening now.

This is King Jing!

“You take care of yourself.” King Jing said expressionlessly.

It was not appropriate for him to make a big move today, so he didn’t plan to deal with Ma Zhuowen in the street.

After all, the court was in need of people now, and Ma was the most important official in Liangzhou.

If his son is dealt with rashly, those people in the capital may not be able to sit still.

King Jing pondered, took Su Rui’s hand, and signaled Lin Tian with his eyes to come out together.

“You go and settle the bill first, and take Xiao Li and the others back later. I have something to do and I won’t go with you.” Lin Tian lowered his head and said to Tang Chuchu.

Then Lin Tian took out a silver note of five hundred taels from his arms and stuffed it into Tang Chuchu without saying anything.

These are his men, and it is naturally not their money to come out.

Tang Chuchu subconsciously wanted to refuse, but seeing Lin Tian’s firm eyes and hesitating for a while, she accepted it.

She suddenly felt that she had followed the right master.

Lin Tian was just a prodigal son, how could he suddenly get in touch with King Jing overnight, and it seemed that they had a good relationship.

In addition, the abilities that Lin Tian inadvertently revealed made Tang Chuchu feel that this small Liangzhou City could never hold Lin Tian!

Tang Chuchu’s eyes were complicated. After going to the counter with the waiter beside her to pay the bill, she followed Xiao Li and others outside the door back to the gentle land.

On the other side, Lin Tian had already come out with King Jing and others.

“Thank you, Mr. Lin, for protecting me today. I feel very lucky. Please come to the teahouse in front to talk with me.” King Jing said.

His attitude can be said to be very humble. Compared with the majesty at the banquet that day, he seemed more approachable today.

“This is just a small matter. Thank you, His Royal Highness, King Jing, for inviting me, but I have urgent matters and I am afraid I can’t accept the invitation. Why don’t we meet again tomorrow.” Lin Tian smiled and waved his hand, and declined calmly.

Even if he refused, he left room for another meeting next time. A gleam of light flashed in Lin Tian’s eyes.

He admired the style of King Jing very much. I am afraid that even if King Jing could not ascend to that position, he would achieve great success in the future.

“Since you have something to do, let’s do it next time!” Su Rui said.

Lin Tian used his eyes to inquire about King Jing, and when he saw him nod with a smile, he said goodbye.

He didn’t mean to be reluctant, but he went to Yipinjiufang for a meal today, and then he was poisoned, and then he ran to Pinxiangzhai to eat some cakes.

After such a meal, he was a little sick of it, and he was too lazy to wrong his stomach again.

“My brother, what do you think of this Mr. Lin?” Seeing Lin Tian’s back leaving in a chic manner, Su Rui raised his head and asked King Jing.

King Jing stared at the direction where Lin Tian disappeared with a far-reaching look, recalling the information he had collected and the few confrontations with Lin Tian.

“He is a man with hidden edge, wise but foolish.” King Jing commented like this, which was already a very high evaluation for him.
