654 Chapter 654: Blessing in Disguise!

Tang Li Xue hastily tried to reject Wang Tian's offer in a flustered manner: "No, I... That... Uhh... How could I dare to trouble Minister Wang Tian and his people to escort my parents here?"

Tang Li Xue immediately put on her pitiful-looking sad expression again and continued to say: "Besides that, I am afraid my dying parents cannot stand too much shake on the way here... What if my dying parents passed away before they could get here?"

Wang Shan nodded in agreement and replied with a gloomy expression: "You are right. Your parents should be too sickly and very weak right now. They surely could not withstand the shake on the way here."

"You do not need to worry about that. I will send one of our Wang Family's physicians to see your parents. Our Wang Family's physician will make sure the condition of your dying parents does not deteriorate on their way here." Wang Tian added one more help to Tang Li Xue.

"Old man~! It is really hard to believe that you are so kind this time~!"Wang Shan's gloomy expression became excited again after he heard wang Tian's words.

Wang Shan quickly explained to Tang Li Xue to reassure her: "Our Wang Family's physicians might not be as good as Imperial Alchemists, but they are not that much worse either than those Imperial Alchemists."

"Miss Tang, you do not need to worry about your parents' condition anymore. With our Wang Family's physician, your parents' sickness might even possibly be cured~!" Wang Shan tried to comfort Tang Li Xue.

While Wang Shan comforted her, Tang Li Xue's mind was thinking fast as she carefully paid attention to Wang Tian's every word to try to read what was he thinking right now.

'Did this sly old man already know my identity as a fox, and he was just playing with me right now? No, it should not be... If he had found out about that, he should have already made a move to suppress and catch me.' Tang Li Xue secretly deduced in her mind.

'All right, as long as he did not find out my identity as a fox, it means I should still have some chance. But still, this sly old man should already have some suspicion on me right now. Tsk, damn it~! What should I do right now?' Tang Li Xue anxiously thought.

To be honest, Tang Li Xue really wanted to just retreat away from here.

This Wang Tian was clearly a cunning old human with many decades of experience in the Imperial Court.

Just like a veteran actor sees an amateur actor's acting performance, Tang Li Xue's acting and pretense might seem ridiculous and full of flaws in front of this Wang Tian.

Tang Li Xue could faintly sense from Wang Tian's stare that he was looking at her as if he was looking at a clown performing on the stage.

Unfortunately, Tang Li Xue clearly could not just retreat away from this Wang Tian without showing any of her efforts since it would only make him more suspicious of her.

At that time, Wang Tian might even forcefully seize her to interrogate her true motive to approach his third son, Wang Shan.

Even though she was acting poorly and full of flaws in front of Wang Tian's eyes, she clearly must continue her acting until the end to not make Wang Tian's suspicion of her worsened.

Tang Li Xue secretly thanked Wang Shan for his playboy behavior.

Yes, if Wang Shan did not often bring many girls to ask for Wang Tian's help, Wang Tian's suspicion of Tang Li Xue might be a lot worse than now.

At least for now, Tang Li Xue guessed that Wang Tian might think she only covet Wang Shan's wealth and authority as his son.

Tang Li Xue immediately put on a glad expression and said: "Really? My... My parents' sickness can be cured by your family's physician? I... I am so glad~! I really do not know anymore how I could thank Brother Wang Shan and Minister Wang Tian~! Please accept my kowtow~!"

Tang Li Xue hastily kneeled in front of Wang Shan and Wang Tian, but before she could kowtow, Wang Tian quickly waved his hand to prevent her to do that.

Wang Tian's powerful spiritual Qi raised Tang Li Xue's body and forced her to stand up again.

"You do not need kowtow to me. Just tell me your parents' name and their location. I will send my people and my family's physician to escort them here today." Wang Tian said to Tang Li Xue.

"Thank you very much, Minister Wang Tian, for your generosity~! My father's name is Tang San, and my mother's name is Xiao Wu. They lived in a small town on the east of this Imperial City. My father is a blacksmith in that small town." Tang Li Xue delightfully told Wang Tian about her parents' information.

Of course, all of that information was made up by her. It was all completely fake!

However, Tang Li Xue really did not have any other choice right now!

Since she was already lying, then she could only lie to the end!

At least Tang Li Xue must wait until Wang Tian let down his guard, and she had a chance to run away from here!

After that, Wang Tian took out a communication talisman from his spatial ring and contacted his people outside the Imperial City to go to find the military physician, then brought him to escort Tang Li Xue's parents together.

"All right... My people are already on their way there now. You only need to wait here patiently, and my people will bring your parents here today." Wang Tian said to Tang Li Xue.

With her [Extrasensory Perception], Tang Li Xue detected a faint mocking tone from Wang Tian's way of speaking.

Tang Li Xue felt even more suffocated after she heard Wang Tian's words, and she almost cough a mouthful of blood in aggravation.

This Wang Tian clearly did not plan to give Tang Li Xue any way out.

"Let's go, Miss Tang~! I will take you to see my mother too while we wait for your parents to come here." Wang Shan invited Tang Li Xue in a happy mood.

But Tang Li Xue did not have time to pay any attention to Wang Shan since Tang Li Xue's mind was too busy thinking about how to get out of here before Wang Tian verified her lies!

Just when Tang Li Xue felt extremely anxious and helpless...

Wang Tian suddenly received an urgent call from his communication talisman.

"What?! A group of intruders sneaked into Imperial Palace and planned to catch Your Majesty~?!" Wang Tian exclaimed as he stood up with a solemn expression filled with killing intent.

Both Tang Li Xue and Wang Shan felt suffocated by Wang Tian's thick killing intent.

Even Tang Li Xue felt extremely uncomfortable right now, so Wang Shan should feel a lot worse than her.

Fortunately, Wang Tian immediately restrained his thick killing intent before Wang Shan fainted.

"So, how about Your Majesty's condition right now? Did Your Majesty get hurt?" Wang Tian asked anxiously while he flashed, and he flew directly into Imperial Palace at his full speed.

Wang Shan was thrown off a few meters back because of the shockwave while Tang Li Xue only took a few steps back.

But in her heart, Tang Li Xue secretly sighed in relief: 'Sigh... That was a close one. I almost get caught by that sly old man. Fortunately, something suddenly happened in the Imperial Palace, so he no longer has time to pay any attention to me.'

After calming down, Tang Li Xue quickly realized in amazement: 'Wait a minute... A group of intruders sneaked into the Imperial Palace... and they planned to catch Your Majesty... Don't tell me those two foxes really did it?!'

Tang Li Xue put her slender finger on her smooth chin and frowned in worry while thinking deeply...

At this time, Wang Shan had already stood up and approached Tang Li Xue again. He was uninjured, but his appearance was quite messy right now.

"Miss Tang, are you all right?" Wang Shan asked Tang Li Xue with a worried tone.

Tang Li Xue smiled at Wang Shan. She shook her head and replied: "Brother Wang do not need to worry, I am all right. But according to Minister Wang Tian's urgent words, something should have happened in the Imperial Palace."

"I hope everything will be all right. If something happened to Your Majesty, our dynasty might face a crisis." Wang Shan worriedly said.

"I am also really worried about Your Majesty and Minister Wang Tian. How about we go to the Imperial Palace too to check what happened there?" Tang Li Xue tried to persuade Wang Shan to go together to the Imperial Palace.

She clearly would not be able to enter the Imperial Palace alone, but it would be a different story if she went there with Wang Shan!

"No, no, no... That is too dangerous~! Did you hear what my father said just now?! There is a group of intruders sneaking into the Imperial Palace~! If we accidentally meet them, we will be in great danger~!" Wang Shan hastily rejected Tang Li Xue's persuasion with an anxious tone.

This time, Tang Li Xue no longer hesitates as she used her [Mystic Whisper] on Wang Shan!

"Let's go~! Bring me to enter the Imperial Palace right now!" Tang Li Xue's words penetrated straight into Wang Shan's deepest consciousness, and he instantly fell into her control.
