Yan Chaoyang did not reply, as if he could not hear him. He felt bored and did not understand why there were so many idiots in this world.
"What a pity," he sighed, "such a powerful force, but this prince does not use it."
On the way back, he heard from Xue Kuang and Tian Can that they managed to capture Yan Zhaoyang alive despite being surrounded by so many experts and having lost quite a number of their best fighters. It was obvious how strong Yan Zhaoyang was.
At this time, the prison door opened silently. Several ghost-like figures entered in a line and knelt on one knee around Ji Wuyu. They lowered their heads and cupped their fists, "The rescue was late, Your Highness, please forgive us!"
"No, you came at the right time." Ji Wuyu stood up.
One of the kneeling figures immediately stood up and helped him remove the shackles, saying, "This subordinate received the news a few days ago and quickly rushed over. I did not dare to delay and used some time to figure out the route here. To let Your Highness suffer here, this subordinate deserves to die ten thousand times! "
"At first, it was very bitter, like hell on earth," Ji Wuyu calmly tidied up his appearance, "Then Ji Wuji came, and it suddenly stopped."
"Why is that?" That person asked.
"Because he and I no longer have brotherly feelings. I can finally cut off my soft-heartedness and do what I want to do." Ji Wuyu's face showed hatred as he said this, "In the past, no matter what, I still saw him as big brother. He should not, should not have humiliated and ridiculed me in front of Jiu Mei!"
His expression changed again, revealing a strange gentleness, "Jiu Mei still does not understand now, but she will understand in the future. In this world, the one who loves her the most is definitely this second brother of mine."
"Let's go." He looked at the still indifferent Yan Chaoyang one last time and turned to walk out of the dungeon.
When he came outside, he found that the guards of the dungeon were all lying in disorder, all corpses.
"Even when killing, you should look good." He said with some dissatisfaction, "You Hidden Mountain Five Swords are not particular about this point."
"Your Highness is right." The five of them said in unison. Their voices were very gentle, as if they were looking at their own children.
As they moved forward quickly, the faint light from time to time reflected the five of them. They were clearly old men, but their eyes were bright and their steps were light and fast. The five of them were all retainers of Ji Wuyu's birth mother, who was the current Imperial Consort Zhi. Before Imperial Consort Zhi married into the palace, she was the Sect Master of the Hidden Mountains Sect.
"Come, tell me what happened during this period of time," Ji Wuyu said.
One said, "When we arrived, Li Ku was fighting a decisive battle against His Majesty, only knowing that the Hidden Meaning was sealed by Ban Zhao. As for what happened afterwards, because we were searching this prison, we didn't pay much attention to it. I heard that he died, but I also heard that he didn't."
"Oh?" Ji Wuyu stared blankly for a moment, and then he sneered, "In order to seal this Li Ku, Ban Zhao might have to pay with his life. Didn't he favor Ji Wuji the most? Now that he is dead, let's see who will remember his contributions. What else? "
"Yan Shiyi has issued a challenge to Ji Wuji in advance, it will be at midnight tonight."
"Tonight?" Ji Wuyu suddenly stopped and looked out through the gap. He could only vaguely see the moonlight, "The Golden Autumn Festival! How did it happen in advance? "
"No one knows. Even many demons here have gone to see it. It's very deserted, and it's easy to come in."
Coming out from the forcefully created secret passage, there was a quiet river. The front yard was the gate of the Celestial World, and one could hear the bustling sounds coming from it.
"Moulin Rouge!" Ji Wuyu gritted his teeth. He hated Xue Kuang, Tiancan, and even the Blood-clothed Tower, "Damn it, who do you think I, Ji Wuyu, am? How dare you offend me! When I come to power, I will make this Moulin Rouge disappear from the Celestial Capital! "
"Where were we just now?" He walked along the river, in the direction of his Prince's Mansion.
"Duel."
"Yes, duel!" The night wind blew, it was a bit cold, and Ji Wuyu shuddered, "Everything was fine, why is it brought forward? In my opinion, it's very clear! "
"Your Highness, please advise."
"It's Yan Li, Yan Li is coming to save people." Ji Wuyu sighed slightly, "I didn't expect that my judgment was wrong. He is actually willing to risk his life for a subordinate, no wonder the big guy is so loyal to him."
"Who is Yan Li?"
"Yan Li," Ji Wuyu squinted his eyes, "This year's Soaring Dragon Tanhua, is now a disciple of Cangjian Peak, it is said that he has broken through the Four Realms, and is very popular in the Court Of Sword. His shrewdness and schemes are no less than mine, he is a very difficult guy to deal with. "
"Do you want us to go and kill him?"
"Yes." Ji Wuyu said.
"Yes."
"Wait." Ji Wuyu stopped them, and his expression slowly eased, "Five uncles have watched me grow up, nothing must happen to me, don't be stingy with the Deity Vanquishing Sword."
The five old men felt warm, looked at each other, and saluted together, "Your Highness, rest assured, we old men will take care of ourselves, at least to see the day you ascend the throne with our own eyes. However, is it necessary to use the Deity Vanquishing Sword to deal with a junior? "
"I am referring to Ji Wuji." Ji Wuyu's voice seemed to freeze the river water, so quiet that it refused to flow.
"Yes," the five old men replied as usual. It was as if they would do it without hesitation if he asked them to commit suicide.
Ji Wuyu continued walking, saying, "I originally wanted to keep Ji Wuji for a while longer, but I didn't expect the heavens to kill him so early. After Ji Wuji is dead, continue to complete the tasks that were originally given to you, leave no one on the list. Then, inform Imperial Mother that the matter of Crown Prince Yi can begin. "
"Yes."
"What about the demons who imprisoned Your Highness?"
Ji Wuyu said, "Now is not the time, Imperial Father has made up his mind to befriend the demons, if I obstruct him, it may bring changes to the matter of Crown Prince Yi. Don't be anxious, one day, I will slowly deal with them, and none of them will escape! "
"Then we will go."
…
Recently, the Office of the Chamberlain of Dependencies was not quiet, because a person had moved in, a woman.
Not only the merchants, the rich young masters of famous families, and the sons of high officials, even the Fourth Prince Ji Wuyong, the Fifteenth Prince Ji Zhongwen, and the Seventeenth Prince Ji Zhongxing had become frequent visitors of the Office of the Chamberlain of Dependencies.
On the day of the Golden Autumn Festival, every household was decorated with lanterns and streamers, and it was very lively. All these people gathered at the Office of the Chamberlain of Dependencies, all wanting to invite a woman to be their companion.
The woman was naturally Ji Zhiyuan. Her arrival caused a stir in Tianjing, for no other reason than the fact that beauties were fashionable in Tianjing, and the more beautiful they were, the more famous they were. Was the top of the Beauties List beautiful enough? One could judge with their own eyes.
The Office of the Chamberlain of Dependencies, which had always been cold and quiet, suddenly became lively.
But Wei Ran was very dissatisfied, and after a few days, he was still muttering, "They actually let the lord stay at the Office of the Chamberlain of Dependencies, and treat the lord as a foreign barbarian? The Giant Deer Territory is still the territory of the holy dynasty, how absurd! And after so many days, they still didn't summon her, it can be seen that they are looking down on her … "
Ji Zhiyuan didn't care at all. She now knew that the various departments of the Dragon Emperor Dynasty weren't as complicated as Great Xia's. For example, the Dragon Emperor's Mansion had the functions of arresting, murdering, interrogating, executing, and so on. Although there were as many branches under the Divine Arrester, there would definitely be chaos if the central authority did not have extraordinary control over the various functions.
When she went outside, there were many people shouting, "Miss Zhiyuan, please accompany me tonight, I know a good place, it's very quiet …"
And so on and so forth, and so on and so forth.
At this time, the identity of the three princes didn't matter. Among them, the youngest was only 16 years old, and that was the seventeenth prince, Ji Zhongxing. As he was the son of a talented person, his name wasn't in the "Wu" generation.
But his voice was the loudest, and he was the fiercest. There was no reason, it was because he had an elder sister who loved him dearly.
"Miss Zhiyuan, Seventeen has a secret to tell you. Come to my residence, there's a viewing platform where you can watch the duel between the Crown Prince and Yan Shiyi. Come, I'll take you there. Don't believe others, they all want to trick you into bed! "
Just as he was shouting, his ear was suddenly pulled up, and he cried out in pain. He turned his head to see who was so audacious, but when he saw a beautiful and familiar face, his voice became softer, and he weakly called out, "Ninth Imperial Sister."
"You're so young, but you don't learn good things, learning from others to trick women?"
Ji Wuyi's expression was very ugly. Ever since Ji Zhiyuan came to the capital, he completely stole her limelight. Princess Duanyang used to be the most beautiful in the capital, but now she was ranked second. In Wei Ran's words, it was simply ridiculous.
She vented her anger on the seventeenth brother, who she usually doted on. She pinched his ear and said fiercely, "What did Father teach you? He said that you should read more, that there will be beauties in the books, and that you should know how to be humble and thrifty. How can a true gentleman beg so lowly?"
Ji Zhongxing hurriedly begged for mercy. But her words were not only for Ji Zhongxing, but also for the people next to him to hear.
"Ah, Princess Duanyang is here!" Everyone hurriedly saluted.
Some young masters heard it and sneered in their hearts. "Who asked you, Ji Wuyi, to be so arrogant and never look at us? Now that we look at someone else, you're not happy?"
The fourth prince, Ji Wuyong, was a fat man with a broad body. He held a folding fan to be elegant. He cleared his throat and was about to speak to show his authority as the eldest brother, but he was choked back by Ji Wuyi's cold gaze. He didn't dare to speak at all.
What made Ji Wuyi even angrier was that tonight was the day of Ji Wuji's duel, but these people actually didn't care at all. "Go back immediately. If you dare to stay for even a moment, I'll ask Father to sentence you to stay here for the rest of your lives!"
As soon as these words came out, everyone fled in panic.
"Thank you for helping me out," Ji Zhiyuan said as he walked down the stairs. Wei Ran followed behind him.
"I'm not here to help you out!" Ji Wuyi turned around with a cold face, but when she saw Wei Ran, her eyes changed slightly and became a little strange. "You, you're Lord Wei Ran …"
"Princess still remembers this one." Wei Ran said in a lukewarm tone.
"You kicked my horse to death. How can I not remember you?" Ji Wuyi said a little fiercely.
Wei Ran still said calmly, "Princess, you galloped your horse in the middle of the street, and it was very easy to hurt people. Wei Ran had no choice."
"You!" Ji Wuyi pouted. She wanted to say, "So what if I galloped my horse?" But when the words came to her mouth, they became, "How are you doing in Giant Deer Territory?"
Her expression also became a little bashful.
Ji Zhiyuan smiled slightly and said, "You two can catch up. I'm going to relax."
"Wait!" Ji Wuyi stopped him and said, "Ji Zhiyuan, Father wants to see you."
