I saw a middle-aged man in official uniform walking in. This man was an official of the imperial court, his name was Cheng Chao, and he was a fourth-rank official.
His status above the court is not low, and the camp this person belongs to is naturally the Second Prince's camp.
However, Xia Haoxuan is extremely familiar with this person.
Because when his martial arts was not abolished, this Cheng Chao was a complete flatterer, always following behind him.
Although my predecessor knew that Cheng Chao was a flatterer.
But the most important thing is Cheng Chao's loyalty, so he treats Cheng Chao well.
It was only when his martial arts was destroyed that he saw Cheng Chao's true face. He went to the second prince without saying a word.
He was kicked out of the palace because of Cheng Chao's "kind words"!
As for this guy, Xia Haoxuan was too lazy to take the initiative to find trouble for him.
But now Cheng Chao took the initiative to hit the muzzle of the gun, so he couldn't blame himself.
Cheng Chao walked into the tavern with a bulging belly at this moment.
Cheng Chao's face was filled with a smile at this moment.
Originally, the second prince sent him to curry favor with the third prince Han and build a relationship with him, but he was still suffering from not knowing how to curry favor with him.
But he suddenly received news that someone had offended the third prince Han in the tavern.
And I heard that the boy was still a commoner. In his opinion, this was definitely an opportunity given to him by God.
So he took his men and rushed over without stopping.
He believed that as long as he took action, helped the third prince Han, and taught the blind guy a lesson, the third prince Han would definitely become more favorable to him.
As long as he helps the second prince handle this matter, he will definitely receive a large reward when the time comes, and maybe even a mention of his own official position.
At this moment, Cheng Chao already admired his foresight too much. Fortunately, his martial arts lineage was destroyed in Xia Haoxuan, so he went directly to the second prince.
When he came into contact with the second prince, he found that the former Xia Haoxuan was too young compared to the second prince.
You will have a better future if you follow the second prince.
In his opinion, even if Xia Haoxuan returns to the palace now, he will definitely not be a match for the second prince.
And now, as long as he hugs the second prince's thigh tightly, and he will prosper in the future, it will definitely not be a problem.
As soon as Cheng Chao entered the tavern, the first thing he saw was the third prince of Han surrounded by the guards of the Kingdom of Korea.
After all, the clothes of the third prince Han are much more noble than ordinary people. Cheng Chao thinks that he still has good eyesight.
Since the first thing he saw was the Third Prince Han, he didn't look inside, and naturally he didn't see Xia Haoxuan who was blocked by everyone.
Cheng Chao looked at the Third Prince Han, and quickly saluted with a smile on his face: "His Royal Highness the Third Prince Han, Your Highness the Third Prince Han, you are shocked."
At this moment, everyone in the tavern looked at Cheng Chao's flattering look with strange expressions on their faces.
Even the third prince of Han looked at Cheng Chao with strange expressions.
"Whoever dares to provoke His Highness the Third Prince Han in the Imperial City, I will skin him today." Cheng Chao did not notice the strange expressions on the faces of the people around him, but continued to say angrily.
If he wanted to curry favor with the Third Prince Han, he would naturally have to do something.
So he naturally wanted to use the boy who provoked the third prince of Han to establish his power.
But a sound from below caused him to instantly fall into the ice cave.
"Your Highness, I would like to see how Master Cheng is going to peel off my skin." Xia Haoxuan looked at Cheng Chao with a cold face.
"Prince...Prince!" When Cheng Chao heard this voice, although he had not seen Xia Haoxuan yet, his heart suddenly condensed.
At this time, everyone was wise and cleared the road that Cheng Chao and Xia Haoxuan only saw.
The cold look on Xia Haoxuan's face was instantly noticed by Cheng Chao. Especially when Cheng Chao saw Xia Haoxuan's clothes, his heart suddenly skipped a beat.
"I won't be so unlucky." Cheng Chao suddenly thought of a terrible possibility.
That was Xia Haoxuan, the common man reported by his subordinates as a commoner who dared to provoke the Third Prince Han, regardless of life or death.
"As a citizen of the Great Xia Dynasty, you did not bow to His Highness when you saw him, but you bowed to the Prince of the Kingdom of Korea. Master Cheng did a good job!" Xia Haoxuan looked at Cheng Chao and said.
thump!
When Cheng Chao heard Xia Haoxuan's words, he was so frightened that he broke into a cold sweat and knelt on the ground!
Are you kidding me? If Xia Haoxuan is really what he said, what is the difference between him and betraying his country for glory?
That would be the capital crime of being beheaded as a punishment from all the people.
"This lord actually salutes the prince of the Kingdom of Korea first. Which country is he from?"
"This is too disrespectful to His Highness the Crown Prince."
"Hmph, a person like this deserves to be from my Daxia Dynasty!"
When the people around him saw what Cheng Chao did and heard Xia Haoxuan's words, they all immediately made dissatisfied sounds.
"Commander Shi, Your Highness, I see that Mr. Cheng is very suspected of treason, so we should arrest him and investigate him." Xia Haoxuan said directly.
"No, Your Highness, please spare your life!" Cheng Chao's heart suddenly trembled when he heard Xia Haoxuan's words.
If he is arrested, and Xia Haoxuan uses his methods, he will definitely be convicted of this crime.
Even if you don't die by then, you will still have to shed your skin!
Xia Haoxuan ignored Cheng Chao's plea for mercy. He would never show mercy to such a person who betrayed him.
"I obey the order, and I will personally review it!" Shi Linhua nodded solemnly when he heard Xia Haoxuan's words.
"Okay, Your Highness did a great job!"
"This kind of person should be arrested and investigated!"
The people around him couldn't help but burst out excited praises.
"Let's go!" The third prince Han didn't even look at Cheng Chao, and left angrily.
This time, when Ye Hao watched the third prince Han leave, he did not stop him.
"I'll leave this to you. Go to the Prince's Palace in the afternoon and wait for His Highness!" Xia Haoxuan said to Shi Linhua and left directly with Fang Zhiyan.
…
"I see you are very interested in this Shi Linhua?" After leaving the tavern, Fang Zhiyan looked at Xia Haoxuan curiously and asked.
"I heard that this Shi Linhua is upright and pretty good, so he can be conquered!" Xia Haoxuan replied truthfully.
You must know that Shi Linhua's previous identity was not just a small commander of the imperial city!
He is also a general who has commanded thousands of troops.
It was just because of an injury that his cultivation regressed and he stayed at the peak of the innate realm. He became a small commander of the imperial city guard and controlled hundreds of people.
The most important thing is that there seems to be some friction between Shi Linhua and the second prince's camp.
Otherwise, even if a general who kills enemies on the battlefield has regressed in cultivation, he will not be assigned to be an inconspicuous little guard commander, and the treatment will not be ordinary.
