Prince Qianshui stood on the top of Feitian Pavilion, staring at Huang Yanchen who was standing next to Zhang Ruochen below, with a subtle change in his eyes.
A strange thought also appeared in his mind. Could it be that Yan Chen also fell in love with Zhang Ruochen?
Prince Qianshui simply didn't believe that Prince Huo Xing was really killed by Huang Yanchen. He only thought that Huang Yanchen was deliberately helping Zhang Ruochen out of the siege.
Although Prince Qianshui loves Huang Yanchen very much, he will not allow her to act recklessly. After all, Zhang Ruochen is the number one in the sword competition, so he must be the consort of the Thirteenth Princess.
My sister snatches my sister's consort, what's going on?
Prince Qianshui's face became solemn, a faint golden light appeared on his body, and his pupils seemed to turn into two red-gold fireballs. He said in a cold voice: "Yanchen, Prince Huo Xing's death has nothing to do with you. You'd better not get involved."
Go in."
Huang Yanchen was very stubborn, standing upright like a graceful lotus, and said without fear: "People are killed by me, why can't I care? At that time, Junior Brother Zhang and I were practicing together, and Prince Huo Xing
Lead the army to kill us. I killed Prince Huo Xing. The Sifang County Prince did not dare to seek revenge from me, so he put all the responsibility on Zhang Ruochen. Many people have seen this with their own eyes. As long as they go to investigate, it will be solved soon.
The results can be found.”
Prince Qianshui frowned slightly and said: "Huo Ming, Zhang Ruochen, Princess Yanchen, I allow you to enter Feitian Pavilion and explain this matter clearly."
Below, Zhang Ruochen glanced at Huang Yanchen, showed a grateful look, and said, "Thank you, Senior Sister Huang, for helping me out."
Huang Yanchen still looked as cold as ice, staring at Zhang Ruochen with a pair of bright beautiful eyes, and said: "Do you think the matter is over like this? If you win the first place in the sword competition, you must marry the princess of the Thirteenth Princess.
Otherwise, my father will never let you go. Unless..."
Zhang Ruochen said: "Unless what?"
Huang Yanchen said in a low voice: "Unless you tell my father, the purpose of your coming to Qianshui County Prince is actually to propose marriage to him and ask him to marry me to you."
Zhang Ruochen took a step back slightly, stared at Huang Yanchen warily, and said, "Senior sister, is there any difference between marrying you and marrying the Thirteenth Princess? If these are the only two choices, I would rather..."
Looking at Huang Yanchen's cold eyes, Zhang Ruochen didn't say the rest of the sentence, so as not to lose her face. After all, she did help him out just now.
Huang Yanchen said solemnly: "I am saving you, don't know what is good from what is good. Haven't you seen what the father means? He wants to drag you into the royal family of Qianshui County. If you dare to refuse him
, he will definitely kill you in the cradle. Besides, do you think this princess really wants to marry you? This princess just decided to help you once because she still has some friendship with you."
Zhang Ruochen also thought about it and felt that Huang Yanchen's words made sense.
"Senior Sister Huang is so cold and arrogant, and she hates me to the core. She definitely doesn't really want to marry me. Could it be that she really just wants to help me get out of this predicament?"
Zhang Ruochen really couldn't imagine what other purpose Huang Yanchen had. At least judging from the current situation, even if Huang Yanchen wanted to kill him, it would be an easy task.
I am still too weak. If I can become an inner disciple of Wu City Academy, even if Prince Qianshui wants to kill me, he must think twice before doing so.
Zhang Ruochen desperately hopes that his martial arts cultivation can become stronger and he can become an inner disciple of Wushi Academy as soon as possible.
Now that he had made a decision in his heart, Zhang Ruochen no longer hesitated, stared at Huang Yanchen and said: "From now on, I will definitely return the favor to my senior sister!"
A strange light flashed in Huang Yanchen's pupils, and he raised his eyes and said proudly: "It's just a trivial matter. I killed Prince Huo Xing and indeed caused great trouble to Yunwu County. That is mine.
Responsibility. Sifang County dares to go against you, junior brother. How much territory they have taken away from Yunwu County, I will make them return ten times as much. Let’s go! Let’s go to Feitian Pavilion and pay homage to the king.”
In the distance, Xun Guihai looked at Huang Yanchen and Zhang Ruochen who were whispering, and felt a sense of caution in his heart.
He did not believe that the cold and beautiful Princess Yanchen would fall in love with a new student from Wu City Academy. No matter how talented Zhang Ruochen was, he was only at the top of the Xuanji Realm, and he was still a prince from a lower-level county.
How could he be worthy of the aloof Princess Yanchen?
In Xun Guihai's eyes, Zhang Ruochen is still as weak as an ant and not worth mentioning at all.
However, Xun Guihai had to be on guard. If Zhang Ruochen was allowed to pursue Princess Yanchen first, he would have no choice but to regret it.
"Zhang Ruochen, if you dare to compete with me for the title of Princess Yanchen, I will never spare you!" A cold light flashed in Xun Guihai's eyes. He looked at Zhang Ruochen and Huang Yanchen walking toward Feitian Pavilion. Xun Guihai also stood up from his seat.
Get up and follow him.
He decided to propose marriage to Prince Qianshui now and ask Prince Qianshui to marry Princess Yanchen to him.
Feitian Pavilion has fallen back to the ground and turned into a purple gold palace, twelve feet high. Purple pillars stand on the periphery of the purple gold palace, and flashing inscriptions flow on the walls.
As soon as Zhang Ruochen stepped into Feitian Pavilion, he felt an invisible pressure acting on him.
The further you walk towards the Feitian Pavilion, the stronger the pressure becomes. If you were an ordinary person who has never practiced Qi, he might have just stepped into the Feitian Pavilion and you would be crushed by that pressure.
Get down.
In the Feitian Pavilion, Prince Qianshui sits at the top, wearing a crown and a golden robe, giving people a majestic and sacred feeling.
Ordinary warriors, if they saw King Qianshui, would definitely think that there was a God Emperor sitting on him, and would be suppressed by the invisible power of King Qianshui and kneel on the ground.
In addition to Prince Qianshui, the ten most powerful ministers were also in Feitian Pavilion, sitting on the left and right.
The first ones on the left and right are the left prime minister and the right prime minister respectively, representing the two most powerful figures under the throne of Qianshui County.
Ning Shangshu sits in the third position on the right.
Any of the eleven people in Feitian Pavilion can make Qianshui County tremble with just a stamp of their feet, and can destroy an inferior county with just a word.
Although Huo Ming was also a Xuanbang warrior with strong cultivation, after entering Feitian Pavilion, his legs were trembling and he did not dare to look up at Prince Qianshui who was sitting above him.
"Bye...bye, Lord Qianshui!" Huo Ming walked to the center of the hall. He could no longer bear the strong pressure. His legs softened, and he knelt on the ground and bowed to Lord Qianshui.
.
Both Zhang Ruochen and Huang Yanchen seemed very calm, walking side by side, walking past Huo Ming, and stopped only nine feet away from Prince Qianshui.
"Greetings to Prince Qianshui!" Zhang Ruochen did not kneel down, but just bowed his hands.
"Greetings to my father." Huang Yanchen just stood there casually without bowing.
Seeing the performance of the three young geniuses in the hall, the ten powerful officials nodded gently.
Huang Yanchen was the most beloved daughter of Prince Qianshui, and she was born to a queen. She had been loved by thousands of people since she was a child, so she naturally had no fear when meeting Prince Qianshui.
Even the top ten powerful officials would give Huang Yanchen a thumbs up when they saw her.
Zhang Ruochen is only a high-ranking warrior in the Xuanji Realm, but he can behave calmly and calmly in front of Qianshui County King, which is really rare among young people. He bowed his hands to Qianshui County King and saluted, in fact, he expressed his respect for Qianshui County.
The respect of the prince.
On the other hand, Huo Ming, whose cultivation has reached the Great Perfection of the Xuanji Realm, although his martial arts cultivation is higher than Zhang Ruochen's, his performance is too poor.
Prince Qianshui's face was serious and he said: "Exactly who killed Prince Huo Xing, tell me clearly. Huo Ming, since Prince Huo Xing is your brother, you should know best who killed him."
,Right?"
Prince Qianshui's voice was like thunder, exploding in Huo Ming's ears.
Huo Ming was covered in cold sweat. He didn't dare to lie in front of the Qianshui County Prince. He said in a trembling voice: "Report... back to the County Prince, I... I heard my father mentioned that Huo Xing did die in Yanchen County.
In the hands of the Lord...but...but, we have absolutely no complaints. It was all Huo Xing's fault. He did not know good and evil. Princess Yanchen killed him, and she was doing justice to heaven."
Prince Qianshui smiled slightly and said, "In that case, why did Prince Sifang attack Yunwu Commandery under the pretext of avenging Prince Huo Xing?"
"This this……"
Under the strong pressure of Prince Qianshui, Huo Ming fainted, closed his eyes, and fell in the center of the hall.
Prince Qianshui shook his head in disappointment, and stared at Zhang Ruochen again, saying: "Since Prince Huo Xing was killed by Princess Yanchen, then the trouble was caused by her, and I will definitely give an explanation to Yunwu Commandery.
However, today is the Sword Discussion Competition. If you win the first place in the Sword Discussion Competition, you must marry Princess Thirteen. There is no excuse. Do you understand?"
Huang Yanchen coughed dryly and signaled to Zhang Ruochen with his eyes.
Zhang Ruochen stared at the Prince Qianshui sitting above him, looking upright, and said calmly: "Report to the Prince..."
At this moment, Princess Thirteen quickly walked in from the outside, knelt in front of Prince Qianshui, and said while crying: "Father, my daughter does not want to marry Zhang Ruochen. I beg you to take back your life. My daughter can be married."
If you were given a dog, you would never marry him."
Hearing the words of Princess Thirteen, Zhang Ruochen breathed a long sigh of relief.
Of course, Zhang Ruochen suddenly realized something was wrong. What does it mean to marry a dog and not marry him?
When Prince Qianshui heard the words of Princess Thirteen, his face turned livid and said: "This matter is not up to you! Before the sword discussion conference, I have given you the privilege to screen it first. Zhang Ruochen can
It is also your wish to participate in the Sword Discussion Conference. Now that Zhang Ruochen has won the first place in the Sword Discussion Conference, you will naturally marry him unconditionally without any excuse. Do you understand what I mean?"
It was the first time that Princess Thirteen saw Prince Qianshui being so stern, and she felt a little afraid in her heart. She immediately closed her mouth and did not dare to say anything more.
If she really angers Prince Qianshui, even if she is the princess, she will definitely be severely punished.
In this case, we can only accept our fate.
"Prince Qianshui is too strong!" Zhang Ruochen looked at the thirteen princesses kneeling on the ground and thought to himself: "If I reject him, I will definitely not be able to leave Feitian Pavilion today. Do we really want to use Senior Sister Huang's method?"
Prince Qianshui was in a very bad mood, without a trace of smile on his face, and said in a deep voice: "Zhang Ruochen, how are you thinking about it?"
