"Stop!" Ji Xingzhi rushed over in two or three steps, picked up the long whip and called out to the servants. Although Ji Xingzhi's martial arts skills were not strong, he had been trained by the National Security Bureau after all, so dealing with a few servants was no problem at all.
The servants were beaten by Ji Xingzhi and fled in all directions, cursing: "Where did this lunatic come from? How dare you come to the Li family and act so presumptuously?"
Seeing Yang Qiu and Li Ping arriving late, Ji Xingzhi dropped the whip in his hand, walked up to Hua Yihen, untied the rope for him, and said with a cold face: "Why don't you fight back?"
Hua Yihen glanced at Yang Qiu and the others, and said expressionlessly, "It was just a beating."
What? It's just a whipping... that's all? She was furious, but no one cared.
Okay, she's meddling in other people's business.
Seeing Yang Qiu and the others approaching, Ji Xingzhi glared at Hua Yihen angrily, handed over the badge and said, "Xue Zhao is late, please forgive me, Your Highness."
As soon as the words fell, everyone was shocked
Although Ji Xingzhi did not say it, everyone knew it clearly. Huazhou Kingdom had only one prince, and that was Huazhou War God Hua Yihen.
Yang Qiu and the others' faces changed drastically, and they knelt down tremblingly and said, "Greetings, Your Majesty!"
Hua Yihen did not exempt everyone from the gift. He took the badge from Ji Xingzhi's hand, his eyes deep, and no one knew what he was thinking.
Ji Xingzhi ordered someone to untie Li Mao's family. As soon as they were free, they knelt in front of Hua Yihen and kowtowed: "I don't know the identities of the prince and the lady. If I have offended you, please forgive me."
Ji Xingzhi ignored Hua Yihen and helped Li Mao, Liu, and Li Shi up one by one: "Ignorance is not a crime."
"So you really went to ask for help," Li Shi suddenly said.
Liu quickly covered Li Shi's mouth. He was of extraordinary status now, so they couldn't talk to him casually.
After hearing what Li Shi said, Ji Xingzhi's eyes turned cold: "Call for help?"
Liu didn't let Li Shi say any more. Ji Xingzhi narrowed her eyes slightly, turned her gaze to Hua Yihen, and said coldly, "Did you guess I would come back?" After a pause, Ji Xingzhi continued, "You knew I had the badge, so you told Uncle Li I was going to get help?"
Ji Xingzhi didn't blame Hua Yihen at all for knowing that she had a badge on her. After all, he could even take away the silver needles she gave him quietly.
Hua Yihen played with the badge in his hand and said, "I'm not sure."
From the moment Ji Xingzhi rode the horse, Hua Yihen knew that Ji Xingzhi wanted to escape. Now with such a good opportunity to escape, Hua Yihen was not sure whether Ji Xingzhi would give it up.
Hua Yihen's eyes flickered slightly: "I just want to know, me and freedom... which one is more important to you."
Ji Xingzhi was stunned when she heard this, and then looked at Hua Yihen with amusement: "If I don't come back, wouldn't you have received this beating in vain?"
Hua Yihen's face was still pale and indifferent: "It won't be in vain."
Hua Yihen is a well-known vindictive person, so how could he allow someone to beat him up for nothing?
The conversation between Ji Xingzhi and Hua Yihen was heard clearly by Li Mao's family, Yang Qiu, Li Ping and others who were nearby, but they were also confused.
But after a while, Hua Yihen's subordinate Xu Chang came with a group of royal guards. Li Ping paid for the girl's life for murder and gave some subsidies to the girl's family.
Yang Qiu was dismissed from his post and convicted for corruption, sheltering and condoning Li Ping, and his house was raided.
