Chapter 52 Begging
The exit of Xinghua Alley is Phoenix Avenue, and on the other side of the avenue is the majestic Baosheng Tower.
The triple eaves of Baosheng Tower are about ten feet high. The wine flag, which is taller than the restaurant, hangs high in the air and flutters in the wind.
On the third floor of Baosheng Building, the three women were leaning against the window. From a high position, they could see the scene in Xinghua Alley.
"Sure enough, someone is following you!" Wen Qianqian's beautiful round face was full of surprise: "Senior Sister, someone really dares to do harm to the Crown Prince?"
Xu Mengyu frowned slightly, with a solemn expression: "There are not many people who are so bold. There are not many people who dare to do this. Are they from some great evil sect?"
"Senior Sister Xu, which evil sect is it?" Wen Qianqian said: "Tell me which evil sect is so brave?"
"Those are the only ones I can think of," Xu Mengyu frowned and said, "Lingxu Sect, Secret Shadow Sect, Jade Cauldron Sect, Fearless Sect, etc. They also have great masters here, which is very troublesome."

"No matter how powerful they are, if they enter Yujing, they are seeking death!"
"But they are not afraid of death." Xu Mengyu shook his head: "Like the Wuwei Sect, death in battle is the glory and the fundamental way to the eternity of the soul."
Her beautiful face was covered with a layer of heaviness.
As soon as I heard about the Fearless Sect, I felt awe-inspiring in my heart.
Many masters of the Zhenwu Division fell into the hands of the Fearless Sect, and were dragged to death by the demons of the Fearless Sect.
The demons of the Wuwei Sect can immortalize their souls even if they die in battle, but the masters of Zhenwu Division cannot.
"Senior Sister Xu, have you ever seen the Demonic Demon from the Wuwei Sect?"
"...I met him once." Xu Mengyu's face was tense and gloomy.
The terrible memories of the past came back, causing her breathing to become rapid and her blood to boil. Her teeth bit into her red lips unconsciously, causing blood to ooze
"It's begun." Huang Shirong suddenly said.
The two women kept staring there, and couldn't help but perked up when they saw Chu Zhiyuan stop and let the master of Zhenwu Division jump up.
Behind Chu Zhiyuan are three masters: Feng Xixi, Zou Fang and Guo Chi.
Three grandmasters in front and two grandmasters in the back blocked the three dark-skinned middle-aged grandmasters who were following them in the center.
Chu Zhiyuan, surrounded by four palace guards, was already fifty meters away, looking this way at a corner in the alley.
The three swarthy middle-aged men looked at each other, looking past Feng Xiguo Chi and Zou Fang, towards Chu Zhiyuan.
Chu Zhiyuan said: "Who are the three of you?"
I still don't feel the strong murderous intention.
As masters, these three people could not conceal their murderous intentions from their super senses even if they tried their best.
They didn't originally want to kill him, but were they trying to catch him?
"How did the prince discover us?" a swarthy middle-aged man asked in a deep voice.
Chu Zhiyuan smiled: "Five against three, the three of them have no chance of winning, right?"
"They are no match for us." The swarthy middle-aged man said.
"The masters from the Zhenwu Division are on their way, and even the masters from the Grandmaster's Palace will come. If you leave now, there is still hope."
"Why do you need to bluff, Your Majesty? These are the only ones, right?" The dark-skinned middle-aged man said with a smile: "I originally wanted to see His Majesty's skills, but it's a pity, so I'll say goodbye."
They looked at each other, and their gray robes suddenly bulged, and then they turned over and jumped over the wall, flying towards the distance.
"Master?" Feng Xi looked at him.
Chu Zhiyuan nodded: "It's better to be careful. It doesn't matter if you lose it."
"Yes." Feng Xi responded.
His figure suddenly became blurry, as if he had dived into the water, and seemed to be real or illusory. He walked away along the alley, disappeared in the blink of an eye, and caught up with the three people in the distance.
"That's it?" Wen Qianqian turned to look at Huang Shirong and Xu Mengyu, and said dissatisfied: "It's an anticlimax, but there's no fight!"
She originally thought it would be a fierce battle, a battle of masters.
Then it will be quite exciting to see how Chu Zhiyuan protects himself from the siege of the Grand Master.
The result was not what he expected at all. He didn't even start a fight. He just said a few words of temptation and ended it hastily.
Now that the two sides are separated, there is absolutely no good show to watch.
This disappointed her greatly.
Xu Mengyu said: "The fourth prince acts very safely."
Wen Qianqian disagreed: "If you don't completely eliminate the danger, just give it a scare, is that safe?"
"If we really want to fight, who knows if it will affect him?" Xu Mengyu said: "What if these three people are from the Wuwei Sect? They will really drag the prince to die together."
Wen Qianqian opened her red lips and sighed unwillingly.
……
Chu Zhiyuan thanked the two masters of the Zhenwu Division with fists in his hands, then raised his head and glanced towards Baosheng Tower, smiling and hugging his fists.
His eyes seemed to travel a hundred meters, and he looked at Huang Shirong at the window.
Huang Shirong pursed her lips and smiled, clasping her fists and nodding.
Chu Zhiyuan smiled, turned and left.
"Did he see us?" Wen Qianqian said in surprise: "How keen."
"This fourth prince is indeed very powerful." Xu Mengyu said softly.
Huang Shirong smiled.
Is this considered sharp?
If they knew how sharp his perception was, they would understand what true sensitivity was.
She gestured at the window.
The two Zhenwu Division tracking masters hiding in the bustling crowd fisted together and disappeared into the crowd.
She cast her gaze into the distance, and the three swarthy middle-aged masters had disappeared.
Her bright eyes flickered, looking farther away. I believe they can't escape the tracking experts within the company.
But who is it? If it is the Jade Cauldron Sect, that would be troublesome, but it doesn't look like it, and the eyes are not so cold and forbidding.
What an eventful time!
……
Chu Zhiyuan was also curious about this question.
Who are these three guys?
As he walked back, he thought about this problem.
Originally, he wanted to go to the house next to Houtu Hall to practice, but after this incident, he felt unsafe. The practice in the new house was indeed not as good as the palace.
The final decision was to go back to the palace and wait until the assassin was dealt with.
Not long after he returned to the palace, Feng Xi came back.
——
In the study, Chu Zhiyuan was sitting behind the desk. He was originally leaning on the back of the chair. Now he leaned forward, stared at Feng Xi and asked, "Really?"
Feng Xi nodded solemnly.
"Interesting..." Chu Zhiyuan touched the thin beard stubble on his chin and smiled: "It's so interesting!"
He looked up at Feng Xi: "Manager Feng, what do you think is going on?"
Feng Xi hesitated.
"But it doesn't matter."
"...Then the slave will tell you."
"Just say it."
"They should be the guards of the forbidden palace."
"Nonsense, even if you are not a palace guard, you can't enter the palace!" Chu Zhiyuan said angrily: "Let's get straight to the point!"
"Yes!" Feng Xi gritted his teeth: "It should be sent by the emperor!"
Chu Zhiyuan smiled and said: "Grandpa Huang..."
He also thought of this answer.
It's not that the heroes think alike, but that there are no other answers.
The guards of the Forbidden Palace are only loyal to the emperor. It is impossible for others to command the guards of the Forbidden Palace, so they must be acting on the orders of the emperor.
"So..." Chu Zhiyuan said with a smile: "This is the test given by the emperor's grandfather..."
"Exactly." Feng Xi said.
Chu Zhiyuan stood up and walked around with his hands behind his back, thinking about the emperor's intentions.
There is no need to explore the depth of his cultivation. Since Chu Qingfeng knows it, and the emperor naturally knows it, then why does he send the Forbidden Palace guards to follow him?
Is it to train Zou Fang, Guo Chi and the others to protect their abilities?
Or is it to provide yourself with practical experience?
He then waved his hand: "Forget it, the imperial grandfather has his own intentions, just pretend not to know."
"Yes, Your Majesty, that slave will leave."
"Thank you for your hard work."
"I dare not."
As Feng Xi withdrew, Chu Zhiyuan and Zou Fang were the only ones in the study.
Zou Fang stood in the shadows holding a white jade whisk.
Chu Zhiyuan was pacing with his hands behind his back, his handsome face under the light looking solemn.
Two Grandmasters are not enough!
If there are four grandmaster guards on the side, no matter how many assassins are there, it will be enough to deal with it.
Four grandmasters can form a formation, and compared to two grandmasters, the defense power is not only doubled, but several times greater.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, can you ask the emperor for two more grandmaster guards?
Thinking of this, he went to the back garden, arrived at the waterside pavilion on the lake, and made this request to Bai Ningshuang, who was playing the piano.
Bai Ningshuang looked at him in shock.
The lights inside the water pavilion are bright yet soft.
The illumination made Chu Zhiyuan's eyes shine like cold stars, extremely bright: "Mom, you might as well mention it to grandma, and we won't talk about it until you agree or not."
"Yuan'er, you..." Bai Ningshuang said with a smile: "You are really capable of whimsical thoughts, what wonderful dreams can you have!"
She was originally extremely smart, but now she has finally figured it out.
Asking Concubine Rou to be a master is too bizarre.
Chu Zhiyuan would not do such an outrageous thing, so why did he mention it to Concubine Rou? Who has the power to bestow the royal master with masters?
The answer is ready to come out.
When she thought of this, her bright eyes burned, and she said excitedly: "It's so hard for you to hide it from your mother!"
Chu Zhiyuan smiled and said: "Mom, just pretend that you don't know."
"...Okay, I'll just pretend to be confused and mention it to the empress."
If the emperor really agrees to give the palace two grandmasters to protect him, it will be a great joy. It will not only increase the power of the palace, but also enhance the status of the palace.
The emperor has personally given two palace guards, which is a great honor.
By then, everyone knew that Prince Qing's Mansion was no longer abandoned by the emperor, but had regained the favor of the Holy Family.
