Chapter 81 Life is like a play, it all depends on acting!
"Ahem, cough, cough~ Don't worry, Lord City Lord, I'll ask you something."
Ximen Hao patted Hu Yanzhuo's arm, and then shouted outside:
"Old ghost, has the message been sent out?"
The old ghost outside the door was stunned for a moment, then reacted and said quickly:
"Back to Your Highness, just as I was about to send the message, the Lord of the City arrived. I will go to Ling Ge to deliver the message."
"No! Not yet... cough cough cough!"
"puff!"
Ximen Hao sprayed another mouthful of blood directly on Hu Yanzhuo's body.
"Oops! Someone come quickly! His Highness is vomiting blood again! Bilian! Where is Bilian!"
Ji Wubing also entered the role and helped Ximen Hao sit back.
Hu Yanzhuo, on the other hand, looked at the blood stains on his official uniform and the thick smell of blood on the tip of his nose, and his face instantly turned paler.
"Cough cough cough~ It's okay~ I'm just here to recuperate. Ever since I woke up, I haven't been feeling well. Yesterday, I was surrounded by ten assassins on the street and suffered internal injuries. Fortunately, I had guards like Yunlong, so I wasn't attacked.
The assassin succeeded."
Ximen Hao looked pitiful, especially since he more than doubled the number of assassins, which almost made Ji Wubing and Liu Sheng laugh.
The old ghost and Zhao Yunlong outside the door looked at each other and finally understood that the eldest prince was acting!
Involuntarily, the two of them fell in admiration.
"Ten?"
Hu Yanzhuo frowned and looked at Hu Yanda who was kneeling on the ground:
"Dar, didn't you say there seemed to be three or four? How could there be ten? How do you manage the security in the south of the city?"
"Uncle! My nephew asked about it and it is indeed..."
"Ahem! Lord City Lord, now is not the time to discuss the number of assassins. You see that my Highness is injured, right?"
Ji Wubing knew that the play was almost done, and if he continued, he might be noticed.
Hu Yanzhuo was startled, and quickly took out a white jade bottle, put his hands on the table, and saluted:
"Your Highness, this is a fourth-grade healing pill. It is my apology for my lax management. Your Highness, don't worry. I will definitely catch those assassins with my own hands and bring them to you! It's just for you to see?"
As he said that, he looked at his nephew.
If this matter is really brought to the fore, my official position is small, and I am afraid that Huyanda’s life will be in danger!
"Cough cough cough~ City Lord~ Forget it~ Uncle Huyan, you blocked a sword for my father back then, and you also blocked a sword for me, Daqing. Today I call you 'Uncle', this is a tribute to you for blocking my father's sword back then.
Respect for the sword. As for your nephew... Alas! To be honest, I don’t blame you, I just blame many people who want me dead. I just didn’t expect that my younger brother chased me all the way, and when I got here...
Alas! It’s a pity that I’ve caused trouble for you.”
What a Ximen Hao! What a Ximen Dalang! What a shameless eldest prince!
An uncle sighed. Not only did he give Hu Yanzhuo a huge favor, but he also did a favor to Ximen Guang.
Sure enough, Hu Yanzhuo was flattered. The prince called him uncle? This was really flattering.
But then his face became a little ugly. Indeed, if something happened to the eldest prince, the Huyan family would be completely doomed.
He is not on the prince's side, but on the emperor's side. But now, he has a good impression of the eldest prince.
"Your Highness is so reasonable and reasonable, I am very scared. Your Highness, don't worry, I will select a hundred defenders to protect His Highness' comfort!"
Only then did Hu Yanzhuo realize that he had been careless. He was not too concerned about this prince at first. Who knew that assassins had been attracted as soon as he arrived in Donglin City, which forced him to pay more attention to him.
"Ahem, cough, cough~ Uncle Huyan is here to help. I also went back to heal my wounds. The assassin's blow almost killed me!"
Ximen Hao stood up slowly, then touched his palm and collected the fourth-grade healing pill.
"Then I also resigned."
Hu Yanzhuo finally breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Ximen Hao had collected the elixir.
He kicked Huyanda up from the ground and pulled him back hastily. He had to quickly arrange for some confidants to come over and protect him.
Ximen Hao looked at the backs of his uncle and nephew leaving and suddenly smiled:
"Liu Sheng, close the door. Yunlong, guard outside, especially the maids and servants. They are not allowed to come near."
He did not forget that those people were Hu Yanzhuo's people.
"Yes! Your Highness!"
Zhao Yunlong accepted the order, but was still disappointed.
Because he could see that the eldest prince seemed to be very disappointed with him and had already shut him out.
"Bang!"
As the door closed, Ximen Hao instantly became energetic.
Vomited a mouthful of bloody spit:
"Hey! Made! With Master Hao's acting skills, you can even win the Best Actor Award!"
"Stay alive? What the hell?" Ji Wubing blinked.
"Sick ghost!"
Ximen Hao rolled his eyes at the other party, then sat on the chair, holding the elixir containing the small jade bottle:
"Sick ghost, do you think a fourth-grade elixir can win people's hearts?"
"Oh? Your Highness, you mean the female assassin?"
Ji Wubing's exquisite heart is simply a monster! No matter what Ximen Hao is thinking, he seems to be able to guess it.
Ximen Hao suddenly looked at Ji Wubing, his face expressionless:
"If you were not mine, you would already be a corpse."
After saying that, he stood up and walked around from behind to see how the female assassin was doing.
Ji Wubing suddenly shuddered. He seemed to have seen a wolf just now, a wolf more terrifying than the wind wolf!
"Made! Sure enough, being with a king is like being with a tiger! No wonder Tianji Sect never has trouble with the court."
Secretly wiping away the cold sweat, he then led the big dog and followed him.
Liu Sheng, on the other hand, froze on the spot, looking at the empty living room.
In the end, he also followed out. He is now a royal guard, and he must be responsible for the safety of the eldest prince anywhere at any time!
…
"Bilian, have you ever woken up?"
Ximen Hao looked at the pale female assassin and found that her aura was getting weaker and weaker. He had already fed her a third-grade healing pill. It seemed that she was too seriously injured.
"Back to Your Highness, no."
"Let me see."
As Ji Wubing spoke, he sat on the edge of the bed and put his right hand on the female assassin's wrist.
"Hey! I didn't expect you to still see a doctor? Why didn't you take good care of yourself?" Ximen Hao joked.
Ji Wubing rolled his eyes and coughed twice:
"Ahem, cough, cough! A long-term illness leads to a cure. You don't understand such a simple truth?"
After saying that, he closed his eyes slightly and began to diagnose.
After a moment, he shook his head.
"The injury is too serious, and you are so violent in taking bullets for the other party, I'm afraid your life will not be saved. Unless..."
"Take it, I want it alive."
Ximen Hao directly threw the fourth-grade healing pill that was not yet warm to Ji Wubing. Now he was thirsty for talents, and for the sake of his future power, he would give up any pill.
Ji Wubing glanced at Ximen Hao strangely, then opened the bottle and took out a pale golden elixir, which also exuded a delicate fragrance.
While feeding him, he said:
"You are willing to give up, and you will get something if you give up. Your Highness, I really admire you."
Ximen Hao's eyelids twitched, he grabbed the elixir, pulled Ji Wubing aside, and said angrily:
"What a waste."
With that said, he pinched the female assassin's cheeks and stuffed the elixir directly into her mouth.
But shamelessly, they had a mouth-to-mouth conversation.
"call!"
Blow the elixir into the other person's throat in one breath.
