章節 561: Impressions

"I liked that hero because he was brave," Ying Lili replied. "To protect his wife from the King of the Ten States, he fought with the Ten Great Generals of those Ten States. He was the hero of my dreams because to save his love, he brought the King on his knees," Ying Lili pronounced.

"Did he save her?" Sheng Li asked.

"Yes," Ying Lili smiled.

Sheng Li got curious to know about the folktale. "Will you tell me about this folktale?"

Ying Lili nodded her head.

"He saved his wife from the bloody tyrant. Teng Ru was an ironsmith. In the Legend it was depicted how beautiful his wife was! The King of the Ten States, Wu Xinyang once happened to see Teng Ru's wife in the market of the capital. The King fell for her at the very instant. Xinyang wanted to bring her to the Palace and marry her. He sent his right-hand man to find out about the woman, who used to live far from the capital, in a village of ironsmiths and other worker classes.
