Knife Game

The next morning, Sheng Li and Ying Lili got ready, wearing the clothes of the commoners. Sheng Li had put on a fake mustache and beard so that none could recognize him. On top of that, he had worn a conical hat. General Wang and General Xiao also had changed their looks.

"Crown Princess, I also want to go with you," Hu Jingguo told Ying Lili who looked at Sheng Li.

"You are not coming with us," Sheng Li sternly said.

"Your highness, why are you angry at me? I brought your favorite fruits to your room yet you are getting angry with me. This is not good," Hu Jingguo asserted, and then looked at Ying Lili.

"Let him come. What will he do here all alone? It isn't like you are going to carry him on your back," Ying Lili pronounced.

"We are not going outside to play a children's game. Don't ruin my mood in the morning," Sheng Li remarked and looked at Wang Hao who handed him a dagger. Sheng Li hid the dagger inside the sash that he had worn on the waist.
