    Chapter Index

    The prince led a group of chamberlain teenagers, galloped to the west of the city shallow grass slope, across the stream, distantly saw the Lingguang Temple on the steps of the mountain gate, the crowd of two cranes stand out in the crowd of familiar backs, although they are dressed in civilian clothes trolling, but still recognized at a glance is Su Yan and Yu Wang.

    The Fourth Prince’s Uncle? What are he and Su Yan doing here …… trekking? Sightseeing? Or are they burning incense and praying to the Buddha for marriage? The crown prince thought, “Bah! Two big men, what kind of marriage is it? It must be the Fourth Prince’s uncle’s bad intention again, forcing Su Yan to accompany him. I must stop them and ask them what’s going on.

    He whipped his horse, crossed the stream to the foot of the mountain, jumped, and hurriedly stepped up the steps. The chamberlains couldn’t catch up and called out from behind, “Young master, slow down! Be careful!”

    Zhu Hailin stomped to the main gate of Ling Guang Temple in one breath, gasping for breath and looking left and right, losing sight of the two men, he raised his steps towards the Heavenly King’s Hall directly in front of him.

    Su Yan and King Yu, one after the other, stepped into Ling Guang Temple.

    Their trip is to examine the temple’s footprint square and maintain the situation, not to burn incense to worship Buddha, so did not stay in the halls, into the first hall of the heavenly kings hall to take a look, out of the left and right bell tower, drum tower, and towards the second hall of the Maharajah’s treasure hall.

    Intent on easing the atmosphere, King Yu walked over to Su Yan and took the initiative to say, “Have you seen what the Buddha statue enshrined in the hall looks like?”

    He spoke in such a good voice, Su Yan is not so blatant to throw his face, just the tone is still a little cold: “A golden one, what’s wrong.”

    “I heard rumors that the Lingguang Temple has a living Buddha, extremely spiritual, believers only need to Buddha’s face and body smeared with gold, will be able to wish for success. Therefore, the people of the capital, there are a lot of selling fine, empty savings, buy yellow financial for gold foil, to paste the Buddha statue gold body.”

    Su Yan’s previous life as a knowledgeable netizen, immediately sniffed out the flavor of enrichment and fraud under the guise of religion, and couldn’t help but spit out, “What living Buddha, take the gold before you’re willing to show your spirit, that’s sniffing, right?”

    “Sniff?”

    “Uh, looks like a mole, black hair and flat mouth, specializes in stealing gold and silver treasures, also known as gold-loving rats.” Su Yan half-true half-false bullshit.

    King Yu believed it and laughed, “A strange beast that is not even recorded in the Classic of Mountains and Seas, you even know about it, worthy of being the seventh in the Second Armor.”

    “I read a lot of miscellaneous books.”

    Two people have a chat without a chat a few words, towards the great male treasure hall, but see around the incense suddenly less many. Hall outside the porch stood seven or eight monks, every incense to enter the hall, will advise a “treasure hall is under repair, inconvenient to open, please move,” if the incense said to go to paste the gold body, paste on the way out, the monk is not forced to stop, directly let people in.

    King Yu pulled out a piece of gold leaf from his sleeve and shoved it towards the merit box, and stepped into the hall door with Su Yan unhindered.

    Su Yan raised his head and was almost blinded by the golden Buddha, he was busy averting his eyes and looked around to see a richly dressed old man in front of the Buddha niche in the hall who was offering incense. He fixed his eyes and unexpectedly whispered, “Isn’t that Marquis Feng An?”

    King Yu glanced at him and replied, “It’s him. Don’t want to accidentally bump into this old bastard, don’t bother.”

    Su Yan saw that he did not give face to the state relative and lost his smile, “Marquis Feng An is your aunt and uncle’s brother, in terms of seniority, you have to call your cousin uncle.”

    King Yu snorted disdainfully, “He can afford it too? What the hell.”

    “How, you are not a lineage, all are greedy flower good color master?” Su Yan was molested because of just now, stocking revenge, “today coincidentally, why don’t you two get together as a pile of exchanges to exchange flower picking tips, I go to the inspection, not in the way.”

    King Yu sank his face and looked straight at him, his eyes actually had some humiliating implications, gritting his teeth, “Do you really look at me like that?”

    Su Yan heart did not Yu Wang and Wei Jun together. After all, one is a playboy who loves to flirt with Liang, and the other is an old animal who rapes, kidnaps, and imprisons all kinds of animals, there is a world of difference. But because he was still angry, he didn’t answer and slanted a glance at King Yu, skimming his mouth in a petulant manner.

    King Yu wanted to strangle him at this moment, and wanted to just cao him until he passed out.

    Wei Jun’s fingers were lightly trembling as he honored the incense, stealing glances to the back of the curtain, and mentally couldn’t help but complain about Master Jiyao, who had come up with this bad idea.

    -Said something about not entering the tiger’s lair to catch the tiger’s son, told him to bury the dragnet on the one hand, and on the other hand to use his body as a bait to induce the assassins to come to attack, so as to cut off the roots and eliminate the future problems forever.

    He is also being as if he is hanging over his head at all times, and let’s see if she spares you!”

    He purposely took Su Yan’s hand in front of Wei Joon, and raised his hand to go away.

    Su Yan subconsciously wanted to break free, and King Yu said in his ear, “Wei Jun is domineering and narrow-minded. Because of today’s incident, he won’t be able to avoid receiving a heavy punishment and will harbor a grudge. He can’t do anything about me, but he can find trouble with you, unless he thinks that you and I have a very shallow relationship, then he will have some scruples and won’t dare to do anything rash.” Su Yan hesitated for a moment at his words, gave up struggling, and followed him out of the hall.

    King Yu pulled him along, walked to a guest room next to the Lenten Hall, sat down to catch his breath, and said, “Get me a glass of water.”

    Su Yan poured him a cup of tea and said in a low voice, “Thanks to Your Highness for protecting me, otherwise that arrow, I would never have been able to avoid it.”

    King Yu finished drinking the water and smiled, “Consider it an atonement for offending you before.”

    Su Yan thinks that if he can be as informed and reasonable as he is right now, the two of them would not be at war with each other, but unfortunately, this prodigal prince is not easy to change his nature in the lower three things, always intermittent madness, and I don’t know when the next time he will be guilty of it again.

    It’s better to continue to stay away from it.

    So Su Yan said nonchalantly, “Your Highness should return to your residence, and find a doctor to treat your injuries first.”

    King Yu’s face turned cold with his attitude, and a bit of sharpness came out of his smile, “If the one who was injured was the royal brother, I’m sure you wouldn’t have this attitude.”

    Su Yan was stunned: what did he do to bring up the emperor again? Today this is the second time. It’s weird and wonderful.

    Seeing that he was silent, King Yu continued to sneer, “After all, you monarchs and ministers are harmoniously happy, one is like a fish in water, and the other is an old tree in spring.”

    The more Su Yan listened to the more wrong taste, frowned and said: “The king in the end want to say what, can not painfully say clearly? This is so insinuating, is it interesting?”

    King Yu rose violently. Su Yan was startled, followed by him grabbing the lapel of his coat with one hand, his upper body leaning back and pressing against the desktop. King Yu leaned down, and the shadow pressed down like a city-destroying black cloud, covering Su Yan’s face.

    “You and–“

    He had just spat out two words when he heard a terrifying scream ringing out from outside, howling like an animal in a mournful manner.

    Both of them were stunned. Su Yan’s back waist was painfully pushed against the hard table edge, patting Yu Wang’s arm that was pressed against his chest, saying, “It looks like something happened outside. You let go first, have something to say when you have time.”

    King Yu stared at his near face, his face was cloudy and uncertain, as if he was plotting something extremely important, his gaze was a bit fierce and hesitant, and finally like solid ice sinking into the bottom of the water, the surface of the water was calm and cold.

    In this position, he slowly pulled Su Yan’s upper body up, meticulously smoothing the folds on the lapel, the corner of his mouth hung up a languid smile: “Qinghe is right, a man should act painfully, what is the point of scratching the itch. Well, we have time to say, first go out to see what’s going on.”

    Su Yan breathed a sigh of relief, straightened his lapel and walked out of the guest room.

    Wei Jun wanted to lay a net to catch people, not wanting to futile not to mention, but also the King of Yu was severely offended. He hired a group of good men sprayed a dog’s blood, Jin Buqian eyes fierce light, only in the other side of the power and generous commission, forced to endure.

    After spreading the fire, Wei Joon decided to return home and not to do anything stupid like drawing snakes out of their holes in the future, it’s better to keep the soldiers at bay and cover up the earth with water.

    He went out of the Maharajah’s Treasure Hall under the arch of the crowd, and didn’t go far before he saw a tall back, wearing a peach and willow dress, passing by out of the corner of his eye.

    –Beauty! Wei Joon made a jolt, his spirit suddenly shook up. This dress, this waist, this gait, just a back shadow alone could make him certain that the other party was not only beautiful, but also flirtatious.

    Just as his fire went down, another fire raged and burned, his soul fluttering after that enchanting back.

    A group of guards followed closely behind him, calling out in confusion, “Marquis? Marquis?”

    Wei Jun walked briskly while greeting the servants, “That woman in the pink dress ahead, see her? Quickly, stop her! Marquis, I’m going to be the groom again tonight!”

    He walked in a hurry and cut himself off with a teenager who brushed past him, and since he couldn’t care about cursing because of his lust at the moment, he easily let the other party go and continued to chase after the beauty.

    Zhu Hailin is looking around looking for someone, shoulder suddenly hit, and see the other side regardless, long gone, suddenly annoyed, staring at the back of that person, the more you look at it, the more you think it looks like Feng’an Marquis.

    Wei Jun, this old thing, what are you doing with the fire! Could it be that he saw Su Yan and wanted to trouble him again with his old grudge? Thinking about this, Zhu Helin immediately turned around and chased after him.

    Wei Joon a lustful desire to support the old life, panting and chasing to the front of the guest room next to the fasting hall, finally saw the figure of the woman in the pink dress again, overjoyed, instructed the attendants to go around to the front to block the way she went, itself rushed up, wanting to stop from the back to embrace.

    Jin Buqian saw the pink-skirted woman’s heavily made-up, false, picturesque face, and was distracted by the biting, cold light that shot out from her eyes, slowing down a step before calling out, “Be careful–“

    At the same time, he exerted ten percent of his strength and violently threw the arm crossbow case made of iron sandalwood, knocking the shocking thunder and streaming electricity-like sword blade off course by a few points.

    The light of the sword was picked upward from Wei Jun’s ribs, raising a mist of blood in the sky. Wei Jun’s severed right arm flew up, and the scarlet splatter was swept by the wind, showering the Prince who was catching up with him all over his head and face.

    “Ah ah ah ah ah–” Wei Joon covered his blood waterfall-like wound and let out a miserable scream like an animal howl.

    Zhu Hailin reached up and wiped his face, staggering upright at the pungent odor of blood.

    Fu Bao caught up from the rear, fell to the ground in shock, and then screamed in a shrill voice: “The young master has been assassinated – come on people, quickly escort the driver! Protect him–“

    The door to the guest room opened, and King Yu saw at first glance the sword light like electricity and the sly and subtle swordplay, his heart was in awe, and he droned in a deep voice, “He Lin come here!”

    The crown prince, as if waking up from a dream, ran to King Yu’s side, and saw Su Yan walk out from the room door, his mind was blank for a moment, only instinctively reaching out to stop him from going out.

    Seeing that the first sword only cut off Wei Joon’s right arm, the pink-skirted woman stabbed out with the second sword. The guards around Wei Joon surrounded, desperately sticking to the assassin’s attack during the exchange of blows, and a few Houfu stewards rushed up, carrying the miserable Wei Joon towards the guest room, pleading, “Please help the king and take down the assassin.”

    Yu Wang was not willing to meddle, but the crown prince was on the spot, and showered a head of blood, such as if no matter, the emperor pursued a bad explanation.

    Zhu Hailin came back to his senses at this moment and excitedly encouraged him, ”Fourth King’s Uncle, go on, go on! Take her! This is the first time I’ve seen an assassin, take her and see what kind of character she is!”

    King Yu glanced at him with a complicated expression, clenched his fist and grabbed his body, but when his body was about to move, he was tugged by Su Yan’s arm.

    Su Yan tugged on King Yu’s arm with one hand and grabbed the Crown Prince’s belt with the other, staring expressionlessly at the “female” assassin in the middle of the field, suspecting that he was going to have a heart attack in the next second.

    King Yu looked at him in surprise, “What?”

    Su Yan was breathless and said, “Don’t mind him, let him go.”

    The Prince was a bit disgruntled, “That was an assassin! Live! Little master, I’m going to arrest her and torture her. Qinghe, don’t be soft-hearted. What if she injures me with her sword just now? Don’t you feel sorry for me?”

    “The heart …… hurts.” Su Yan gritted his teeth, “The one he wants to deal with is Wei Jun, involving you is just an accident, let him go.”

    “I’m not letting go!” The Crown Prince glared at him, “Unless you give me a reason. You’re so protective of this female assassin, what, seeing color?”

    King Yu said good-naturedly, “The lone king also wants to know the reason.”

    Su Yan’s chest was so stuffy that he could barely breathe, and he groaned and said in a faint voice, “He is my family’s concubine …….”

    The Prince was dumbfounded.

    King Yu’s kind smile froze at the corner of his mouth.

    The “female” assassin slipped and almost hit Jin Buqian’s flying dagger. He swung his sword to create a circle of air waves, and took the opportunity to rise up, the tip of his foot in the eaves and walls of a few light points, like an extremely fierce and flexible bird of prey, swept away.

    Wei Jun’s wound was pressed by seven hands and eight feet to stop the bleeding, the pain went into his bones, he wailed and wailed, and his mind gradually blurred. The moment before he lost consciousness, he thought viciously: Su Yan, you’re dead!
