Chapter 537: Saving the Prince

When Ye Heng spoke, Lin Qingshuang had already set out to pick up the old owner of Zhou, and did not let him fall to the ground. The old owner has more than a dozen wounds on his body, and his ribs are also broken, if he continues to fight and does not treat it in time, even if the powerful vitality of the martial sect level is tenacious, I am afraid that his life will not be saved. Fortunately, now that there is a chance to breathe, the old owner took out the wound medicine as soon as possible, took it internally and externally, and treated it urgently.

"We have no intention of offending the Hero Martial Academy, hand over this person to us, and we still don't interfere with the river water, how about it?" said the leader of the nine people, pointing to Li He, who was hiding in the gate of the Hero Martial Academy.

Hearing this, the crown prince looked at Elder Wu in horror, he was really afraid that the Hero Martial Academy would not be willing to protect him, and if he was handed over, his life would definitely be over. At the thought that he would be killed, Li He's frightened legs trembled, and he couldn't stand steadily, and if he hadn't leaned against the wall, he would probably have collapsed on the ground.

"Who are you? How dare you openly intercept and kill the crown prince of the current dynasty, as a citizen of the empire, how can you let you come nonsense! In front of the gate of my Heroic Martial Academy, you are still a thief and do evil, don't you regard our Heroic Martial Academy as nothing? I advise you to retreat quickly, otherwise you will be killed!" Elder Wu said strongly.

"Looks like you're not going to give us this face?" asked the leader, confused by his eyes.

"What if I don't give you face? It's a big deal to fight again, who dares to fight with me?" Ye Heng took out the Blue Wolf Howling Moon Knife and walked towards the nine people as he spoke, and the nine people involuntarily took a step back.

What are you kidding? Don't look at this young man, who can compete with their Lord of Shadows, who has eaten the bear's heart and leopard gall and dares to fight him one-on-one?

Looking at Ye Heng's back, Zhou Sisi suddenly felt extremely relieved. Since she was intercepted, she has always been panicked in her heart, and the reason why she didn't show it was because she knew that if she wasn't strong, Li He wouldn't cover her up, and if she was cowardly, the enemy would be unscrupulous against her. The appearance of the old owner of Zhou made her feel the warmth of being guarded by her family, in order for her to survive, the old owner did not hesitate to fight to the death; Ye Heng met the nine masters who intercepted and killed them alone, which made her feel a sense of security standing behind a man again, but this feeling has left her for a long time, so long that she has become accustomed to fighting everything by herself, all the hardships, all the tiredness, are borne by herself.

"Boy, don't think that we are afraid of you, the nine of us will go together, you alone may not be our opponent! We only need Prince Li He, and he is not from your Hero Martial Academy, as long as we hand him over, we will leave immediately, otherwise, it will be a big deal to fight to the death!"

"He's not alone, you have the ability to come up, I'll see how the net is broken!" Lin Qingshuang came to Ye Heng's side and said coldly. It can be seen from the momentum emanating from her body that at this time, she is like a female beast protecting her calf, as long as someone dares to make a move on Ye Heng, she will fight with the other party!

If this was an ordinary female beast, it would be fine, but she was the eldest lady of the Lin family, an intermediate martial sect powerhouse who had the essence of the Lin family's swordsmanship, and with her strength, she could contain the leader of the nine. This pair of young men and women had enough strength to entangle the nine of them, and they would never be defeated until the rescue of the Hero Martial Academy arrived.

In order to complete the task and kill the crown prince Li He, they must fight; once the fight begins, if they cannot quickly take down the other party, the nine of them will fall into the siege of the masters of the Heroic Martial Academy, and it is very likely that someone will die here, for the sake of the safety of the nine people, it is better not to fight this battle. Even if they don't fight, there will still be more and more masters of the Hero Martial Arts Academy who come after hearing the news, and they may not be able to leave if they want to. Suddenly, the nine masters fell into an embarrassing dilemma.

Looking at a couple standing proudly, looking down on their opponents in a condescending posture, chivalrous and tender, but that's it! At this moment, how Zhou Sisi wished that the woman standing beside Ye Heng was himself. If he hadn't chosen to come to the imperial capital at the beginning, would it be himself who was with Ye Heng now? Zhou Sisi couldn't help but ask secretly in his heart. If she hadn't aroused her majestic ambition and stayed in the ranch to live a dull life, would she and Ye Heng have already entered the palace of marriage? With Ye Heng's character, he would never be as selfish as Li He, and he would definitely be a safe haven.

Zhou Sisi suddenly regretted it, and after experiencing the prosperity and warmth of the imperial capital, he realized that after washing away the lead, the tranquility and ordinariness in the pasture are the happiest life. But, she knew, she couldn't go back!

The nine masters were still hesitating, and Elder Wu took a few steps forward and said, "Since you don't want to leave, then the old man has no choice but to invite all the senior brothers to come out and be relaxed with everyone, what do you think?"

The nine people looked at each other, and finally their leader opened his mouth and said: "The green mountains do not change, the green water flows forever, the Hero Martial Academy, let's see!"

After saying that, the nine masters glared at Li He hatefully, and some people even made a gesture to wipe Li's neck, full of threats, and finally retreated together.

Ye Heng brought Old Master Zhou into the Martial Arts Academy to treat his injuries, and Li He and the others naturally had Elder Wu continue to entertain them.

"My grandfather was very badly injured, so I went to see him. Zhou Sisi said to Li He, his voice was still good, but it was less gentle than before.

Li He knew that what he did today made Zhou Sisi very dissatisfied, knowing that she was in a bad mood now, and he felt awkward to keep her by his side, so he promised: "You go, if you need any precious medicinal materials, even if you send someone to the house to get them, you must heal your grandfather." ”

"Thank you, Your Royal Highness the Prince!" Zhou Sisi thanked calmly, and then exited the room.

Elder Wu watched Zhou Sisi leave, sighed, and said to Li He: "Your Highness, it seems that it has become difficult for you to return to the Prince's Mansion safely, and if you still want to inherit the throne, I am afraid it will be even more difficult!" Okay

"Elder Wu, as long as the Hero Martial Academy supports me, I will definitely be able to fight back and complete the great reversal! I am the crown prince, and if I want to ascend the throne, please agree!" Li He said urgently.

Elder Wu shook his head again and again, and said, "His Royal Highness the Prince, whether you can become the king of a country or not depends on your own efforts. The Heroic Martial Academy is a place to cultivate talents for the whole continent, and now that you can get the support of the graduates of the Martial Academy, I naturally have no objection, but if you want to let these students who are still studying in the Martial Academy participate in the struggle for power, the old man will never agree!" Elder Wu said firmly.

"However, the God of War Regiment has fought in the south and northwest, and has obviously participated in several battles recently, why can't they contribute when they come to me?" Li He asked with some dissatisfaction.

After hearing this, Elder Wu shook his head again and again, and said unhappily: "Prince, if you really don't understand the difference here, then please take care of yourself!"

"What can be the difference?" asked Li He puzzled.

"Whether the God of War Regiment is fighting against the northern nomads or going south to fight against the Yingtian Empire, there is only one starting point, that is, to guard our Shuntian Empire, and the war in the imperial capital is a struggle for the throne between the princes, in the final analysis, it is your royal private matter, who has the ability to go up, who can govern the country well. To put it mildly, we don't care whether the crown prince is on the throne or which prince is on the throne, what the people want is long-term peace and stability, not war. At this time, if our Hero Martial Academy participates in it, it is equivalent to adding fuel to the fire. Externally, we can fight bloodily, and internally, no matter who we fight with, we will kill our own compatriots, Prince, do you understand?" Elder Wu asked rhetorically.

With such a simple truth, how could Li He not understand, he was just unwilling, unwilling to lose his chance to seize the throne.

"If you are the emperor and other princes are in trouble, our Hero Martial Academy will naturally take action, because it is to maintain the stability of the country, but now, our joining will only make the imperial capital more chaotic, so, Your Royal Highness the Prince, our Hero Martial Academy is not not not helping you, but we can't help you!" Elder Wu said bluntly.

Speaking of which, Li He couldn't continue to pretend to be stupid, he could only retreat and beg Elder Wu: "Elder Wu, there are only three of my guards left, and you can also see that only a few of them can't send me back to the Prince's Mansion safely, this king asks Elder Wu to send a group of masters to send me back to the Prince's Mansion, and this king will be grateful at that time, this request is not too much, right?"

Elder Wu didn't answer immediately, and pondered for a long time.

"Elder Wu, as long as you can send me back, you can mention any conditions as you like, as long as I can do it, I will definitely meet all of them!" Li He was in a hurry, and immediately lowered his posture, and even changed his address to Elder Wu.

Elder Wu shook his head and laughed, and said, "Your Royal Highness the Prince, do you think I'm ripping off the bamboo? I didn't agree to you immediately, I was thinking about who would escort you. Well, your guards are all injured anyway, let them rest and heal their injuries first, and I will consult with the other elders. ”

Hearing this, Li He's heart finally put in his stomach, and he hurriedly said: "That's really troublesome for you, please take it, we are waiting for your news here." ”

After Elder Wu said goodbye to the crown prince, he immediately summoned a meeting of the high-level officials of the martial arts academy to discuss the matter of escorting the prince back to the palace.

Ye Heng sent the old owner of Zhou to the fifth elder Miao Zeyuan for treatment, because most of the old owner suffered external injuries, the injuries looked terrifying, but in fact, they did not hurt the foundation. Due to the timely appearance of Ye Heng and the others, preventing the other party from continuing to make a dead hand, the old owner of Zhou applied medicine to stop the bleeding for himself as soon as possible, plus the treatment of the poison doctor, the old owner of Zhou was not in a big problem, but the broken ribs recovered more slowly, after all, the injured muscles and bones were injured for a hundred days, and they must be carefully maintained, and they were not in a hurry.

After dealing with the injuries of the old owner of Zhou, Miao Zeyuan went out to dispense medicine for him. Although the old owner was injured, he was in a good mood, and after seeing Ye Heng again, he was very interested and pulled him to chat.

"Ye Heng, the girl who appeared with you is your friend, okay? Your kid's vision is good, that girl is a lady from a famous family at first glance, she is smart and calm, and her cultivation is extremely high, and she is also sincere to you, you can't let others down!" The old owner of Zhou saw Lin Qingshuang for the first time, and he had a very good impression of her, and he was full of praise for her in front of Ye Heng.

Ye Heng didn't feel that such praise was excessive, and ridiculed: "Her name is Lin Qingshuang, she is the eldest lady of the Lin family in Jiangnan, and she is beautiful, but I think she can't afford to be a four-character comment in Xiuwai Huizhong, if she is really so smart, how can she fall in love with me, a stupid boy." ”

"Get out of the way, get cheap and sell well!" Zhou Lao Zhuang scolded with a smile, "You are my grandson-in-law, it's a pity, you have nothing to do with Sisi! I have not encountered many regrets in my life, you and Sisi have not come together, this is a piece!"

"Old owner, I'm sorry, it's me who can't catch Sisi's heart. Ye Heng smiled bitterly.

"The fault is not you, the fault is that Sisi forgot his original intention and did not stick to his original intention. I grew up watching both of you, and I know exactly what your temperament is. I know that Sisi will understand a lot of truth after experiencing some things, but there is a price to pay for growth, and sometimes, the price can be very heavy. Elder Zhou said with emotion.
