Chapter 243: Calming Down
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Loya had already prepared a poisonous needle in her hand. It wouldn’t kill anyone from the height of the second floor, but the poisonous needle in her hand could kill the guard.
After that person fell to the ground, he struggled a few times but could not get up. In the end, he stopped breathing.
At this moment, all the mermaids retreated and looked at the guards on the ground coldly.
Only then did Loya stand up and elegantly dust off her skirt. She looked up at everyone. “The empire will never allow any traitors to appear. This is what happens to people who want to harm the citizens of the empire.”
Her words were powerful, but she did not receive everyone’s approval. The mermaids still remembered how this princess treated the little mermaid.
Seeing that no one was supporting her, Loya took the fish soup from Liao Ning’s hand and drank it in one gulp.
“The empire invited Miss Liao to help its people escape the mental breakdown. I’m willing to believe that there’s definitely nothing wrong with her ancient delicacies. I’m willing to use myself as an experiment for everyone.” No one expected the princess to do this. Many merfolk and commoners were moved-
“Who else is willing to give it a try? I dare to guarantee in the name of my princess that I can definitely help everyone recover.”
Upon hearing Loya’s words, the mermaid silently raised her hand. This time, Loya didn’t tamper with it and got the guards to distribute fish soup to the mermaids.
As Liao Ning had personally chosen the ingredients this time, and she had increased the concentration appropriately, the antidote effect was better. As expected, many people who drank the fish soup immediately saw the effect, and their expressions changed. “Darling, you can laugh. You can laugh!”
“I can feel happiness. I have feelings now! ”
“I really got rid of the loyalty potion. It’s unbelievable!”
Cheers came from the mermaids from time to time, and the mermaids stopped resisting. The pressure outside the castle finally dissipated.
The little mermaid who had spoken just now shouted at Liao Ning, “Liao Ning, can I get a bowl for Uncle? He can’t come over, so I want to bring a bowl back for him. ”
Hearing her words, many merfolk also made a request.
“The golden clams cost 10,000 star coins per catty now. We really can’t afford it. Can I bring some back too?”
“That’s right. In the past, it only cost a few star coins. Now, you can’t buy it even if you want to.”
“Even if he bought it, I wonder if there’s something else mixed in. He’s really afraid of being poisoned!”
Seeing that the matter had calmed down, the king appeared in front of everyone. He waved at everyone, indicating for them to calm down.
“There must be someone behind this incident. The royal family will provide everyone with golden clams for free. Miss Liao’s formula has already been made public. Everyone can go back and make the antidote yourselves!”
The king looked at Liao Ning again and said with a smile, “Miss Liao is an ancient food researcher. The ancient delicacies she researches can help everyone treat mental breakdowns. In the future, Miss Liao will be a loyal friend of the empire and will live-stream every other day. I swear in the name of the king that the price of all ingredients will not increase. Every citizen of the empire can afford ancient delicacies!”
As soon as the king finished speaking, guards carried a few boxes of golden clams and began to distribute them to the merfolk. Many commoners also received the golden clams.
“Long live the Empire! Long live His Majesty the King!”
“Long live the Empire!”
The people who received the ingredients began to cheer, while the king watched all of this with a smile. Finally, he brought everyone back to the castle.
The king said approvingly, “Miss Liao, Olift, you did well.”
“I said that there’s no problem with my formula.” Liao Ning nodded slightly and said, “I’ve already proven my loyalty. Then can you let my nephew go and let him be with me? My request isn’t too much, right?”
“Of course.” The king was clearly in a good mood. “I like this little fellow very much. I didn’t imprison him. I only let him attend classes with the children of the nobles. I’ll get someone to bring him here later.”
“Father!” Loya wanted to stop him. She knew that Liao Nai was Liao Ning’s only weakness now, but she saw the king’s threatening gaze.
“Miss Liao has already proven her loyalty to the empire. We have to give Miss Liao and the merfolk an explanation this time.”
The king said to Zhou Ling, “I’ll appoint you as a lieutenant colonel now. Lead a team to Earl Sam’s house to investigate this matter. You must give the citizens of the Empire a satisfactory answer, understand?”
Zhou Ling nodded and left. Liao Ning was also brought to meet Liao Nai.
At this moment, Loya really panicked. “Father, Ke Lang works with the royal family.. You can’t…”
