Cthulhu

Chapter 63

"My lord, there's a message from the palace. I heard that Pamir family patriarch Qili had an audience with the emperor. It's because of the fact that your lord brought back the students from Yuying Academy." An old man in official uniform saluted the eighth lord, and then put The news that was just handed back was reported.

"Patriarch Qili? What does it have to do with me arresting students from Yuying Academy?" The Eighth Prince was wearing a brocade forged robe and a beaded crown. He was about to put a tea bowl in his mouth, but he stopped when he heard the news. Put it back on the table and ask.

"This veteran is also confused, but Patriarch Qili is indeed in front of the emperor, asking the emperor to stop the prince, and it seems that he wants you to let go of that student." The old man shook his head, as if he was also puzzled.

"Hmph!" The Eighth Prince punched the table with a fist, a gloomy look flashed across his face, and he said coldly: "She chopped off my son's hand, can I let her leave like this?"

"Having said that, but the emperor and Patriarch Qili went together, the Eighth Prince might have to let go of that student." The old man looked at the Eighth Prince's expression and said in a low voice.

His son had just had his hand cut off, and his daughter was kidnapped by some enemy, the Eighth Prince was very troubled in his heart.Unexpectedly, Patriarch Qili and Brother Huang would be involved again, which made him furious, and his eyes were full of venomous light. : "Then, I have no choice but to release the person who cut off Keno's hand?"

"The old minister has a plan. It can make the prince take revenge without offending the emperor." The old man stroked his goatee and smiled, with a sinister taste.

"Let's talk about it." The Eighth Prince became interested and looked at the old man and asked.

"Isn't the emperor's imperial decree still in hand? If you avenge Prince Jino at this time, it will not be considered an offense to the holy face. At that time, the prince will only have to ask the emperor for guilt. Will the emperor really punish the prince for this matter? The old man encouraged with a sinister gleam in his eyes.

"However, I promised Envoy Chai Jimi in the City Lord's Mansion that she will be intact within two days." The Eighth Prince still had some scruples and said with a slight frown.

"If the prince wants to avenge his son, this is the only way he can do it. If the emperor and Patriarch Qili arrive, there will be no chance." The old man continued to incite.

After pondering for a moment, the Eighth Prince's face turned cold, and he shouted loudly towards the door: "Come here!"

"My lord, what are your orders?" Two guards with swords entered the room, knelt on the ground and asked.

"You two listen to my order, go and cut off the hand of the prisoner." After thinking about it, the Eighth Prince still didn't dare to kill Nangong Yuling, so he had to order someone to cut off her hand, which was regarded as revenge for his son.If he really kills him, things will continue to ossify, which is not conducive to his grand plan.

"My lord, my lord, it's not good." A guard stumbled into the house, out of breath, and knelt on one knee and said, "My lord, a man brought a goose back to the princess and killed him outside the mansion."

"What's going on?" The Eighth Prince took charge of the crime, hijacked his daughter, and even dared to go to the government to provoke him. He simply didn't take himself seriously.

"The man said that the prince should let go of the students of Yuying Academy immediately, otherwise it will be bad for the princess." He was a little out of breath at first, but he was frightened by the Eighth Prince, and the guards with swords also spoke fluently.

"Slow!" The Eighth Prince's expression changed immediately, and he hurriedly stopped the two sword-wielding guards who were going to attack Nangong Yuling. The person who hijacked Yanhui was actually because of the Yuying Academy student, so he didn't dare to act rashly. : "Go, go out and have a look!"

Riding on horseback, with a knife in one hand and a rein in the other hand pinching Yanhui's throat, Cheng Cheng looked at the guards around him holding halberds with disdainful eyes, and a sneer sneered at the corner of his mouth.

"If you don't want Princess Yanhui to make any mistakes, step back ten steps, or I won't dare to keep her safe." He tightened his hand on Yanhui's throat, and held her tightly in his arms. .

The guards naturally didn't dare to act rashly, you looked at me, I looked at you, and then retreated back with their halberds in hand.

"The strong man keeps people under his command. I ask myself that I haven't offended the strong man, so why did I attack my daughter?" The Eighth Prince was surrounded by a group of guards with swords. As soon as he walked out of the gate, he shouted to Cheng Cheng who was on the horse. His love for this precious daughter , surpassed his son Jinuo, because this daughter was able to please him since childhood, and she was also smart.Even the emperor conferred the title of Princess Leping on her, which shows how much he loves this niece.

"Stop talking nonsense, hand over Nangong Yuling, if she loses a hair, I can't guarantee whether she will do something destructive." I'm really afraid that the Eighth Prince will cut it off first, otherwise Cheng Cheng wouldn't rush It's really lucky that he came back in time, otherwise Nangong Yuling would be disabled like Jino.

"Strong man, what is there to say, please don't hurt my daughter." The Eighth Prince's face was like a pig's liver, ugly, turned around and kicked the guard behind him and shouted: "Go and bring the man out, go!"

Not long after, Nangong Yuling was carried out of the courtyard door by two people, and came into Cheng Cheng's sight. Seeing that she was intact, she let out a long breath.Now Cheng Cheng became a little worried again, if the hostages were exchanged, he and Nangong Yuling would be surrounded by layers of guards after the exchange, and there would be only dead bodies.

"Strong man, the man has already been brought out, can you let my daughter go?" The Eighth Prince said in a kind voice as much as possible, but he couldn't hide the venomous light in his eyes.

Leaving aside the hundreds of halberd-wielding guards around, I don't know how many masters are hiding among them. If you throw out the life-saving talisman in your hand, the next moment, those who are waiting for Chengcheng will perish.He's not that stupid, now he just needs to stall for time until Patriarch Qili comes to rescue him.

"I will definitely let her go, but you have to let her go first." Pointing to Nangong Yuling, Cheng Sheng said fearlessly.

"No, if I let her go, what will you do if you don't let my daughter go?" The Eighth Prince refused straight away.

"As long as you let her go, I will never hurt your daughter. What good does it do me?" In order to delay time, Cheng Sheng had to continue bargaining with the Eighth Prince.

More than 500 guards with halberds or knives surrounded Cheng Cheng. What kind of scene is this?Coupled with the countless masters hiding around and watching, he had to hold on to the straw, pointing at the approaching people with the snow sword from time to time, making everyone back away.

After negotiating for a while, the Eighth Prince seemed to understand that the other party was stalling for time, and he was secretly worried that if the emperor came, he would not even think about avenging him again.When Cheng Cheng asked her to let Nangong Yuling go first, the Eighth Prince agreed heartily: "Okay, I'll let her go now, but you have to make sure you don't hurt my daughter, or I'll go bankrupt and kill you."

I didn't expect the Eighth Prince to agree to the unequal treaty so quickly, which surprised Cheng Cheng, but the plan always couldn't keep up with the changes, so he could only take one step at a time.

"Let her go." The Eighth Prince ordered to the two guards supporting Nangong Yuling.

The two guards let her go without hesitation. The relieved Nangong Yuling looked at Cheng Cheng who was immediately calm, wondering why he was willing to save her?He rubbed his wrist that had been imprinted by the iron chain twice, and was pointed at by countless halberd heads, and walked towards Cheng Cheng.

"Get on the horse." Cheng Cheng shouted to the slow-moving Nangong Yuling.

After a moment of hesitation, Nangong Yuling turned over and sat behind Cheng Cheng. Due to the limited length of the saddle, she had to stick tightly to Cheng Cheng's back.Whispered in his ear: "I won't thank you."

"You don't need to be grateful, because I'm not for you." The original intention of saving Nangong Yuling, Cheng Cheng was afraid that he wouldn't be able to explain to Liu Sishi, otherwise he wouldn't be bothered to get involved in the muddy water.

"Strong man, I let her go, should you let my daughter go?" The Eighth Prince narrowed his eyes and said.

"I want to let her go, but I don't dare. With so many of you around, will you give me a way out if you let her go?" Anyway, she was rescued, so Cheng Cheng had no choice but to act foolishly. He couldn't let Yanhui go anyway. Go, otherwise I don't know how I died.

"Despicable!" Yan Hui spoke, thinking that he could escape from the clutches of the devil, but the other party did not believe him.

"I'm despicable, but if I let you go, it will be replaced by your father being despicable." After coldly hitting Yan back, Cheng Cheng felt as if he was about to be suffocated to death, and there was a top-notch beauty clinging to his front and back, He could clearly feel the softness of his body, and he really wanted to linger on this kind of happiness for a while longer.

The Eighth Prince's face could be twisted with water, but he didn't expect a kid to do it, and there was nothing he could do.He waved to all the guards around the field: "Everyone get out of the way, don't approach without my order."

When all the guards retreated dozens of meters away and left a path for Cheng Cheng, the Eighth Prince said coldly again: "Now, should you let my daughter go?"

"Hey, it's hard for me to make a choice too? Otherwise, the prince will make a contract not to retaliate against us, and I will immediately release your daughter. There is no other way. Otherwise, my heart will always feel empty and unreliable." Cheng Cheng Naturally, he knew that there were many masters ambushing around, even if he escaped from the siege and let go of Yan Hui, he would still be dead, so he made a fact that the prince absolutely cannot accept.
