Chapter 8, Being Recruited as a Laborer
Bow in apology
The Supreme Scripture of the Heavenly Sound Gate, the Heavenly Sound Enchantment Technique?" the Crown Prince inquired
Refill the Crown Prince's cup again
Arrived at the backyard
Standing at the door
Hmm
Cousin, wait for me!
Isn't this the Crown Prince brother who has come? If it were someone else, I would find it exhausting to even glance at him
I, I ... ...
Gazing at the azure light barrier enveloping the room, even if he called out to someone, those outside would not be able to hear, as they were all blocked by the barrier
After taking just two steps, he stopped again
Not bad
Your Highness has a keen eye, recognizing it at a glance
Qing'er was also not concerned, or rather, her vigilance was not high, after all, their relationship was evident.
At this moment, the Tenth Prince received the news and ran out from inside. Before he even arrived, his voice had already reached: "Elder Brother Crown Prince!"
Zhang Ronghua greeted with a smile, while Ma Ping'an quietly pointed at the carriage, casting an envious glance.
Seeing him chase after, Zhang Ronghua stopped: "Why have you come?"
Zhang Ronghua should not think about it; the Tenth Prince is not a fool. It is not beneficial for him to act against the Crown Prince. If the matter comes to light, his mother, sister, and the entire family of his maternal grandfather will also suffer, leading to a very tragic outcome
lobby
Why? the Crown Prince asked with a cold expression
"At your age, you still haven't settled down properly." The Crown Prince reprimanded with a stern face
You are the Holy Maiden of the Heavenly Sound of this generation
My lord, His Highness requests your presence
Zhang Ronghua had a bad premonition in his heart; it seemed that this meal would not be able to take place.
Looking at the three-story tall restaurant, which occupies a vast area, four guards stand at the entrance to prevent any troublemakers. The people coming in and out are dressed elegantly and possess a refined demeanor, either officials or wealthy individuals
The maid withdrew and returned shortly after, holding a jug of wine, which she placed in front of the Tenth Prince, standing behind him.
Find a quiet single room by the window
"It is not like before; it is now very difficult to see you even once. It is rare for you to come here today, so let us have a good chat." The Tenth Prince was very enthusiastic
Ma Ping'an saw him coming, accompanied by another person, and inquired with his eyes. Zhang Ronghua lowered his voice to explain briefly, and the latter did not ask further.
"Please go in!" Zhang Ronghua said
Arrived beside her
The mother of the Tenth Prince was born into a prestigious family, was beautiful in appearance, and her family held little power, resulting in her low presence in the palace
On the main road, a battalion of the Dragon Guards was escorting the prince's carriage as it approached. The leader was Ma Ping'an. Both sides had already seen each other, and it would be impolite not to nod and greet one another
Tianxiang Tower is one of the best restaurants in the capital, with a high standard, a prominent reputation, and delicious dishes, making it a source of pride for everyone to dine here
Their relationship is very good
I am sorry! The Tenth Prince's face showed a look of compassion
The prince, accompanied by Qing'er, descended from the carriage
Although one cannot utilize their cultivation, they can still speak
With this Dragon Guardian, we chased after the outside.
Catch up with the main force
The pink light flickered, and the maid dispelled her disguise, revealing her true form
It should be here, right? Zheng Fugui was also uncertain
How many guests are there?
The young woman in palace attire, enchanting and alluring, captivates the heart and soul like a seductive fox.
Two cups were poured, and one cup was placed in front of the Crown Prince
This is something I obtained with great difficulty, not inferior to the heavenly wine brewed in the palace. Brother Crown Prince, please give it a try!
Remove your dirty hands
Seeing him stammer for a long time without uttering a word, Zhang Ronghua shook his head and thought, let him follow along then. Given this situation, the Crown Prince is not entering the palace; he can wait outside for a while.
"Speak inside," said the Crown Prince
Just us
The leader of the imperial guards hurriedly sent someone to deliver a message to the Tenth Prince, and they clasped their fists in salute.
The maid made a gesture of invitation
I will go over first and come back to eat in the evening said Zhang Ronghua
What about me
Wait for them to pass
Having played together since childhood without any interests involved
In addition to the three of them, there are also four imperial guards at the gate of the courtyard
You go back and eat fish
Am I being overly suspicious
shake one's head
On the table is a lavish feast, rich in color, aroma, and flavor, which makes one salivate just by looking at its presentation
Now
Zhang Ronghua entered the restaurant with his cousin, and the hall was filled with people. A sweet-looking waitress approached them with a beaming smile and stopped in front of him
Do you want to have a single room upstairs or dine in the hall
Wait until they are closer
Drink the wine in the cup in one gulp
Just as they were about to set off, a member of the Jiaolong Guard rushed in from outside and stopped in front of them
Although his family is wealthy, the money is with his father, and this is his first time here
Go
However, they were fortunate enough to give birth to a pair of twins, a boy and a girl
Her other hand was not idle either; when she acted against Qing'er, she pressed the sealing talisman. As long as one has not broken through to the Celestial Realm, even a Grand Master at the tenth level cannot break free. Their entire cultivation is sealed until the power within the talisman is exhausted
At the entrance stood some imperial guards, whose equipment and individual strength were significantly inferior compared to the Dragon Guards
"Bring me that pot of unique heavenly intoxication belonging to this prince," commanded the Tenth Prince
"I do not intend to harm you; I merely wish to bask in the dragon's aura that you possess," said the Holy Maiden of Tianyin, laughing like silver bells as she reached out her delicate hand towards his face
I am still quite at ease with him, only bringing along Zhang Ronghua and a few others, while the Jiaolong Guards remained outside and did not enter the Wangfu
Back then, you offended a powerful figure from the True Dragon Hall and nearly faced complete annihilation. Only a few worthless individuals managed to escape. If you do not find a place to hide and still dare to emerge and cause chaos, are you not afraid of losing the last remnants of your legacy?
The carriage stopped outside a grand mansion, with a plaque that read "Prince Ten's Residence"
in a moment
The maid struck with lightning speed, delivering a palm strike that knocked Qing'er unconscious
The Crown Prince entered the hall accompanied only by Qing'er and the Tenth Prince
At this moment, the maid standing behind him subtly moved closer to Qing'er
Cousin! Zheng Fugui grimaced, and even licked his tongue.
As for Zheng Fugui, he looked around to the left and to the right, appearing as if he had never seen the world before, clearly not resembling a host.
Glancing at them, they were at the tenth level of the innate realm, yet there was no military aura of soldiers about them. Although they were making great efforts to suppress it, some sinister energy still emanated from them. The four of them were alike, as if they had cultivated the same technique, which led to this situation.
Yesterday, the Tenth Prince invited him to the royal residence as a guest, and after a brief consideration, the Crown Prince agreed.
The prince held up his wine cup, inhaling the rich aroma of the wine. He swirled it slightly and took a sip, finding it strong yet smooth, with a lingering fragrance on his palate. He smiled and said, "Not bad"
I am also being forced into this. If I do not act this way, I will face disgrace and be imprisoned in the House of Lords. Once confined there, my life will be ruined! I do not wish to live that way, so I can only proceed as I have. Please do not blame me.
The jade-like hand touched the prince's face, feeling the softness between the palms, as smooth as water, and exclaimed: "Your Highness, your skin is even more delicate than that of this servant."
