Chapter 622: The Empress Arrives(1/2)
For a moment, everyone was stunned, including Kim Ki-soo.
The eyes were all concentrated on the high-spirited Dongfang Xiuzhe. There were so many people gathered in the whole room, and no one dared to breathe.
“Woooooo~”
“Woooooo~”
In the end, it was the prince's struggle, which woke the shocked guards and reminded them of their duties.
"Clang!"
The weapons were unsheathed, and the guards held weapons in their hands and instantly surrounded the ruthless young man in front of them.
"Let the prince go!"
“Surrender quickly!”
“…”
The guards shouted in fear, "They were really scared. Sure enough, the prince was hurt in front of them, so they would all suffer."
Dongfang Xiuzhe ignored these guards at all. In his eyes, everyone in the room was similar to weak ants, and no one could threaten him!
If he wanted to, he could completely solve everyone cleanly between breathing.
"Do you know you're scared now?"
Looking at the prince in his hand showing a frightened expression, Dongfang Xiuzhe smiled coldly.
"That..." Kim Ki-soo wanted to plead, but he didn't know what to say.
In fact, deep down, he still hoped that Dongfang Xiuzhe would erase these emperor brothers who often bully him, but he didn't dare to admit this idea.
"The queen is here!"
Just as the atmosphere was so tense that it was about to break out, such a sound came from outside.
When he heard the queen, all the guards in the room changed their expressions, and finally they all cheered up and surrounded Dongfang Xiuzhe.
"Oh, the queen?"
Dongfang Xiuzhe's heart moved, and he didn't expect that the queen who was the mother of the world would appear by himself, leaving him with a lot of trouble.
With his eyes rolling, Dongfang Xiuzhe suddenly let go of the three princes who provoked him, and said, "For the sake of the queen, I will let you go for the time being. If you don't repent, don't blame me for being rude to you."
After pausing, he added: "Others care about your identity, but I don't care!"
The three princes were like frightened birds. They hid behind the guards in panic, looking distracted.
"What happened? Why are you all gathered here?"
At this moment, the queen, accompanied by all the nanny and palace maids, walked in from outside. When she saw the situation in the room, she frowned obviously.
The reason why she was able to appear here in time was not because she heard someone holding the prince hostage, but because she came specifically for Kim Ki-soo.
"Report to the Queen..."
An escort was about to report the situation here, but unexpectedly he was interrupted as soon as he spoke.
"My mother, you have to make the decision for your son!" A prince shouted and ran to the queen, pretending to be pitiful. He pointed at Dongfang Xiuzhe and said angrily, "My mother, this ruthless guy actually took his son's son hostage. He also threatened to kill his son's son."
"Yes, Mother, fortunately you showed up in time. If it were a little later, you wouldn't be able to see us!"
"My mother, everything we say is true. Look at the face of the son minister, he just stepped on his feet..."
The three princes rushed to complain, completely forgot that they had just come out of the tiger's mouth.
"Qi Xiu, are you okay?" The queen looked at Kim Ki Xiu next to her.
She came here because she was afraid that Kim Ki-soo would be bullied again. This child was too proud of his face. He just needed to inform her that she could come forward to stop him.
"My mother, I'm fine." Jin Qixiu came to his senses at this moment. In order to avoid the queen's misunderstanding, he hurriedly defended Dongfang Xiuzhe, "My mother, the fact is not what the emperor brothers said. This is the life-savior I told you at the beginning. If it weren't for the emperor brothers' rude provocation, it wouldn't have been like this..."
"This is the 'savior' you mentioned?" The queen was stunned, and then looked at the young man in front of her who was surrounded by the guards again.
"Yes, the Queen of Mother, it's him. If he hadn't appeared in time, I might have never seen Queen of Mother again." Kim Ki-soo hurriedly introduced when he saw that Queen of Mother had no intention of getting angry.
"My mother, you have to make the decision for us. We are beaten up, but the dignity of the royal family cannot be trampled on!"
"Yes, mother, if such a rampant guy is not punished, it will inevitably increase the arrogance of the following people..."
"Please ask my mother to issue an order to take him down and hand him over to the Discipline Inspection Department for handling!"
Several princes who had just been punished, saw that the queen seemed not to pursue the young man, so they hurriedly continued to persuade him.
The queen withdrew her gaze from the boy opposite, turned her head to look at the three princes who were not liked by her, and said softly: "You go down and ask the imperial doctor to take a look first, I will deal with the matter here!"
When the princes heard this, they immediately realized that their mother planned to turn things into small things.
"But……"
"Okay, don't say much, go ahead!"
The queen did not allow these princes to continue talking, so she ordered people to take them down.
"You all disperse, there is nothing to do with you here!" the queen said to the guards again.
"Queen, then this person..." A guard had a little more mouthful and wanted to ask the boy what to do with it.
The queen looked stern and said coldly: "Can't I say clearly?"
The guards did not dare to stay here anymore and retreated in shame.
Dongfang Xiuzhe has always paid attention to this noble woman. She is indeed the mother of a country, and her words and deeds are beyond the reach of ordinary people.
The reason why this queen was so at ease with Dongfang Xiuzhe was not because Dongfang Xiuzhe’s appearance was popular, nor because he was Jin Qixiu’s life-saving benefactor, but because His Majesty the Emperor had told her about this person.
......
The last ray of sunshine in the sky finally sank.
Dongfang Xiuzhe has successfully discovered the whereabouts of the third key, and now he is walking towards the burial place of the key.
If it weren't for the ability of "soul searching", it would have been absolutely impossible for the queen to hide the "Dragon's Hole Key" there.
"I can finally get all three keys together now, I'm really looking forward to it!"
At this moment, since the sky had not completely darkened, Dongfang Xiuzhe was not in a hurry. He walked slowly on the cleaned stone bricks, looking at the building where countless lanterns were hanging high on both sides.
"But even if you have collected all the keys and know the location, you have to wait a little while to open the dragon's cave!"
Dongfang Xiuzhe suddenly thought of something that made his originally anticipated mood a little calmer.
He thought of going to attend the "Eight-World Talks" and as an alternate guardian.
This matter was agreed with the "Eight Steps of Blood" and you can't miss it just because you entered the dragon's den!
Besides, he would like to see the "Eight-Step King of Hell" again, and then take over the two powerful forces under the "Eight-Step King of Hell". This is the most important thing!
Anyway, the "Dragon's Hole" can be opened at any time, so it doesn't matter if it delays backward for a few days.
Thinking of this in my mind, my pace became even slower.
Just as he was walking like a wandering in the garden, there were two unfriendly eyes flashing behind him. After observing him for a while, he quickly left.
"Your Highness, as you expected, the queen did not make things difficult for the young man. I just saw that young man walking towards the 'Jingtian Temple'."
A subordinate sent out to inquire about the news came back and told the three princes in front of him what he heard and saw.
These three princes were the three who were almost destroyed by Dongfang Xiuzhe!
"Hmph, I knew it would be like this!"
"What should we do now? You can't just forget about this."
"Since my mother refuses to uphold justice, then we can only do it ourselves!"
"The boy is now alone, and the direction he is heading is a better place to start. In my opinion, we are worse than..." A prince said and gestured.
"That guy is very powerful. We must send all our best subordinates to ensure that everything is foolproof!"
"What if my mother finds out about this?"
"Don't worry. So what can I do if I know? Will I punish us for an outsider?"
“…”
After some conspiracy, several princes finally formulated a retaliation plan.
The night began to get deeper and deeper.
Dongfang Xiuzhe finally arrived in front of the "Jingtian Temple", but before he could walk in, he was surrounded by dozens of masters who suddenly surged out.
With his eyes swept over the people surrounding him, Dongfang Xiuzhe saw a vicious smile on their faces.
"Unpardon, this time it depends on how you escape!"
"Why are you doing so much nonsense with him? Come on, don't beat him to death first, leave me a breath, I will punish him personally!"
"Unpards, that's the price of your disrespect for us!"
The three princes walked out of the darkness one after another. In their opinion, the boy could not escape even if he had wings.
"I seem to have warned you three, right?"
