"What about the wounded? Let them come out. Yang Yan said lightly, he wanted to know how heavy his good imperial brother could be.

"This ......" Qinghe said with some embarrassment, "Back to Your Highness, the people of the five princes are very heavy, and they can barely get out of bed today, and their faces are not very good-looking, I am afraid that they will surprise Your Highness, so they did not greet Your Highness with the slave maid and others just now." ”

"It doesn't matter. Yang Yan waved his hand, Qinghe didn't want to say anything more, and ordered a few maids beside him to call.

Yang Yan walked into the outer hall of the main hall under the respect of all the maids, and sat in the position he had not seen for a long time, with a familiar and unfamiliar feeling.

The main hall of the Taihe Hall is divided into the outer hall and the inner hall, and there is an inner courtyard in the inner hall, and the inner hall is the place where Yang Yan lives and cultivates, only the maids who are specifically responsible for his daily life are eligible to enter, and the outer hall is for reception, and there are no too strict rules for the maids to enter and exit.

And only this outer hall is much more spacious and solemn than the Taihua Hall of Taihua Sect, more*, facing the door of the hall is a pair of chairs with a table in the middle, which is sat by Yang Yan and distinguished guests, and there are two rows of chairs on both sides of the lower head, which are the seats of the second-class guests.

After the maids entered the hall, they stood on both sides, Yang Yan sat on the chair on the left, and Bing Ruoyan naturally sat on the chair on the other side, so that the maids looked at her with amazement, especially when they noticed that Yang Yan only glanced at her lightly, but was not dissatisfied, she secretly guessed the relationship between her and Yang Yan in her heart.

In fact, it was not the first time they had noticed the existence of Bing Ruoyan, such a beautiful woman, even if they were fellow women, it was difficult to ignore her, and in front of her, it made them feel ashamed of themselves.

However, they also knew Yang Yan's character, and they wouldn't shake their principles at all just because the other party was a beautiful woman, otherwise he wouldn't have killed the maid just because his cultivation was disturbed, and he wouldn't have injured Qinghe just now.

Yang Yan was able to allow Bing Ruoyan to be on an equal footing with him, in their opinion, the relationship between the two was not ordinary, at least His Highness thought that this masked woman had the qualifications to be on an equal footing with him, which was a rare thing in itself.

At this moment, two more maids came out of the inner hall, each carrying a wooden barrel, still steaming, and saw Yang Yan sitting on the chair, and hurriedly saluted: "See Your Highness, the slave maid has not been far away, and I hope Your Highness will forgive your sins." ”

"Let's go down. Yang Yan glanced at the barrels in their hands and knew what they had done before, so naturally he wouldn't blame them.

"Your Highness, the inside is ready, please move to the inner hall, bathe and change clothes, and wash away the turbid dust. The two maids didn't know what had just happened, and said.

Yang Yan raised his eyebrows, and just when they thought he was talkative, he nodded and said, "It's okay." ”

As he spoke, he got up and walked into the inner hall, and walked into the bathroom, and sure enough, everything was ready, the hot water for bathing was poured into the bathtub, and the spiritual flowers for washing and purifying the body were sprinkled, and the prince's clothes were neatly folded on the side.

Stripped of his clothes, Yang Yan lay down in the bathtub, the bath water immersed his whole body, and the pores of his body stretched out, which was extremely comfortable, but a sharp cold light flashed in his eyes, and then he closed his eyes, enjoying the feeling of comfort that he had not seen for a long time.

After lying down for about half an hour, Yang Yan got up, and the water droplets slid directly along the curve of his body, without touching his body, which shows the perfection of his body now, eliminating the step of wiping his body, and wearing a neat and tidy dress again, he looks more energetic and has an extraordinary temperament.

Yang Yan walked back to the outer hall, at this time the two maids had already put down the barrel in their hands, standing among the maids, at first saw a trace of blood hanging on the corner of Qinghe's mouth and felt puzzled, after the maid next to him explained, it seemed that His Royal Highness already knew, no wonder the expression just now was a little cold.

The wounded maids and guards he had called had already arrived, but they were on their knees, their heads bowed, but if they looked closely, they could still see a little purple and blue.

"Look up. Yang Yan sat back on the chair and looked at a group of people with their heads down, their faces were flat, but their hearts were indifferent, five maids, eight guards, that is to say, there were only three maids who betrayed him, but there were twelve guards, accounting for more than half, the hand of the five princes is really ruthless enough, even if he is still alive, he will lose face, unless he can get this scene back.

"Your Highness, my subordinates are too ugly to look up now. The guards listened to Yang Yan's flat voice, but they were a little worried in their hearts, they were beaten so badly by the guards of other princes, they lost not only their own faces, but also His Highness's face, they were not sure what kind of anger was contained under His Highness's plain face.

"Why, being visited by the five princes, the words of this prince are not good?" Yang Yan's voice was still tepid, however, the people below shivered, and hurriedly raised their heads and said, "My subordinates don't dare!"

This look up is to make the "scenery" on their faces no longer hide the slightest bit, exposed in front of everyone, purple and blue, even dark color, the whole face is swollen more than once, especially the two eye sockets seem to have been hammered by heavy fists, more panda eyes than panda eyes, the eyes are difficult to open, can only barely squeeze out a slit.

Even Qinghe and the others, who had already seen the worse at that time, felt shocked, and their hearts were sour, especially Yu Yao and other maids, who had the appearance of sinking fish and geese, but now they were not much better than those guards, Yu Yao's face was almost impossible to see the original appearance, even if the injury was healed, I am afraid it would be difficult to recover the original appearance, which is extremely cruel for a flower girl.

Thinking of this, they were extremely resentful of the five princes, and they were still human beings who were so heavy on a weak woman?

In contrast, although Yang Yan didn't pity the jade much, he wouldn't be so cruel, much better than the fifth prince.

This is also one of the reasons why they insisted on staying in the Taihe Hall and did not betray.

Seeing the appearance of Yu Yao and the others, even Bing Ruoyan, who had always been indifferent to foreign affairs, frowned slightly, but still didn't say anything.

Yang Yan is face is even colder, the five princes are completely running to disfigure their appearance, so even if he comes back, with a group of disfigured subordinates, his face will plummet, and if he abandons them, I am afraid that few people will be willing to serve him sincerely in the future, after all, they have been tortured so badly and still did not choose to betray, and their loyalty to him is in the eyes of many people.

"Look at your own appearance, really give this prince a long face, I'm afraid the news that this prince has raised a bunch of waste has already reached the ears of many people. There was no sympathy in Yang Yan's eyes, let alone pity, only indifference.

"It's the incompetence of his subordinates, please punish His Highness!" the guards bowed their heads and said ashamedly.

"Incompetent? The fifth prince is the prince of the dynasty, and this prince is the same, the same is the prince's guard, my imperial brother's guard is so powerful, so that you have no power to resist?" Yang Yan said coldly, with a rare hint of mockery in his tone.

The guards were speechless, they didn't have the power to resist, but they didn't dare to resist, because the other party was the prince.

"This prince asks again, who are you?" Yang Yan asked.

The guards were stunned for a moment, not understanding what Yang Yan meant by asking, but they still said: "Back to Your Highness, we are Your Highness's guards." ”

"Then tell this prince what the duties of the guards are. Yang Yan said again.

"Protect the safety of Your Highness!" the guards said without hesitation on this question, but as soon as they finished speaking, they were suddenly stunned, as if they had thought of something, and they were immediately ashamed.

They only know that it is a big crime to do it to the prince, but they seem to have forgotten what their identity is and what their duties are.

Sure enough, I only heard Yang Yan say indifferently: "It seems that you still know who you are, you don't need this prince to remind you, you are the prince's guard, you are working for this prince, everything you do must be based on this prince, as for what the opponent is, what do you have to do with it?"

"You just need to know, whoever wants to be unfavorable to this prince is the object of your actions, if you don't even understand such a simple truth, and you still want this prince to teach, then this prince tells you that you are not worthy of being a guard at all, and this prince does not need such waste. ”

Yang Yan's words were very cold, but they were like a slap in the face, which made the guards look shocked, yes, who is the opponent, is it because the other party is the prince, can they ignore the face of His Highness? What if the other party's purpose is His Highness's life? Do they also want to be silent and let others slaughter?

In that case, what kind of guards are they?

Thinking about it, they turned their heads to look at the faces beside them that were originally full of flowers and moons, but now they were as red and swollen as them, and their hearts swelled with guilt, it was because of their inaction that these maids were so insulted and made His Highness's face look bad.

Thinking about the shadow that they still dared to muster up the courage to block the way of the five princes when they fell, and dared to refuse his unreasonable request, they just felt ashamed, could it be that they were not as dignified as a seven-foot man, and they were not as good as a weak maid?

They suddenly raised their heads, looked at Yang Yan on the chair, their expressions became extremely firm, and said: "It is a dereliction of duty by subordinates, I am willing to be punished by His Highness, I will wait for death without complaint, but if His Highness leaves me to wait for my life, I will swear to serve His Highness from now on, no matter how powerful the enemy is, no matter how noble the identity is, we will also take the lead, there is no other word, if I violate this oath, I can't wait for a good death!"

After speaking, all the guards knocked their heads on the ground together, and there was a "dong dong" sound, and even Yu Yao and other maids also kowtowed to the ground.

After kowtowing, they neither raised their heads nor said anything, quietly waiting for Yang Yan's final fall.

"It's easy to want to die. After a long time, Yang Yan said lightly: "If this prince wants to kill you and others, why do you need to talk so nonsense? This prince only asks for one point, absolutely protects all the interests of this prince, this is your last chance, if you commit it again, you will not be forgiven!"
