Half of Prince Zhi’s side courtyard had been sed up by the fla at Xie Laifu as if he was a dead man Xie Laifu koed for his life as he spoke of how His Majesty had captured hiain, the imperial clansmen were startled by his words His Majesty came personally to set the fires and kill us?
”Heh,” Xie Laifu’s words halted at Lou Zigui’s cold laugh, and he saw Lou Zigui looking at him While Prince Zhi looked like he wanted to kill the steward and feed hiaze ”Do you really need to drag His Majesty into everything?” he asked
Supreh to leave a profoundHis Majesty into everything? Clearly, Lou Zigui was telling the that His Majesty did was according to the Grand Preceptor’s instructions Xie Laifu wished he could cut his own head off this instant to show that his words were the truth!
”Tell ui asked, ”Why did His Majesty want to knock over the courtyard wall?”
”……” said the imperial clansmen to murder us
Second Steward Xie wanted to tell the truth, but his words stopped at the tip of his tongue His Majesty had co–no, a wolf That as too fat, so it’d gotten stuck in a hole at the bottom of the wall ht as he looked at the princes standing around him Will anyone believe me?
”Take action when the other party doesn’t expect it,” Lou Zigui turned towards Prince Zhi, whose face looked even more swollen than before If it ice as swollen in the start, noas double that size Anyone who saw him would have to stop and stare
Prince Zhi opened his aze on Xie Laifu turned even roup had just reached the base of the hen it toppled inwards What did thatwatch on them! All of the clansood brains of their own What Prince Zhi realized, they realized as well Grand Preceptor Xie not only wanted Prince Zhi’s life, but all of theirs as well!
Lou Zigui said, ”This one has reminded Prince Zhi in the past to be careful”
Prince Zhi stared at Supreme Commander Lou
”This one urges prince to release this servant It’ll be all for the better,” Lou Zigui recommended
Prince Zhi’s swollen face twisted into an ugly expression as he growled, ”You think this prince is afraid of that Xie Wenyuan?”
Lou Zigui laughed ”That wasn’t what I meant It’s just that prince has no uards”
Now the i as well A powerful dragon couldn’t crush a snake in its own haunts If they wanted to fight Xie Wenyuan in the capital city, there was no way that they’d win
”Before beating a dog, you have to look at its owner,” Supres to the Grand Preceptor Even if prince tore his corpse into 10,000 pieces, what of it?” The i was that there was no point for Prince Zhi to take out his temper on a servant when he couldn’t even presume to touch the Grand Preceptor If news of that spread, wouldn’t he sistock?
Prince Zhi’s s raised by that Xie Wenyuan, wouldn’t I be even stock?”
Lou Zigui readily accepted the advice as he adhtly It was this one rong”
”Take him out to be beaten,” Prince Zhi ordered as he pointed as Xie Laifu ”Leave him alive, then toss him back to the Grand Preceptor’s estate!”
After Prince Zhi’s guards accepted the order, they hesitated They were already standing in the streets, so where else could they drag thisXie Laifu to the street entrance As usual, there weren’t many people there besides a troop of soldiers under the Nine Gate Infantry Commander’s and a bunch of commoners who kept their distance and spoke in hushed tones
”Beat hiuards said as his uards hly beat him up Like this, Second Steward Xie Laifu joined Head Steward Xie Laibao to be confined in bed with heavy injuries (o(╯□╰)o)
”Since prince is safe and sound,” Lou Zigui said as he took his leave in the street, ”Then this one will now depart”
”Supreme Commander, don’t be so hasty to leave,” Prince Zhi said ”Let’s find a place to talk”
On one side, the imperial clansmen all stared at Prince Zhi’s swollen face, which had distorted his features beyond recognition, and privately thought it’d be better for him to find medical help first
Lou Zigui thought so as well ”Shouldn’t prince find a doctor first?”
”No need,” Prince Zhi said as he spat another bloody u But Prince Zhi believed he could hold on because he’d once fought on the battlefields as well!
Lou Zigui gave him a bow ”Then this one will accept deferentially instead of declining courteously”
Prince Zhi was different from Prince Fu, who had enjoyed comfort and wealth as a nobleman all his life While Prince Fu only bothered with his lands, he’d never take action beyondhis mouth when someone bullied him Prince Zhi was ht vengeance just for an angry look directed his way As Lou Zigui saw it, he was the one most likely to cause Grand Preceptor Xie headaches

The Dragon Guard who’d left Lady Xiang’s estate to search for Lou Zigui first saw Xie Laifu getting beaten up at the entrance to the street, then Suprest ten or so i towards the west end of the lane The Dragon Guard wanted to chase after Supreuards when they turned their arrows on hion Guardhiuards and looked back up again, Lou Zigui had already disappeared The Dragon Guard had no choice but to return and report to Ning Xiaoyao
