Chapter 103: Robbery
When the guards saw that the Second Prince's ear was bitten by Prince Jingnan, they were so scared that they surrounded him and tried to separate the two.
But King Jingnan is not someone to be trifled with. He climbed up from the lowest level of gangster to his current position. He is ruthless and these people are no match for him.
He was going to die anyway today, so he might as well avenge himself before he died.
Second Prince, you are the son who pays for your father’s debt, so prepare to die!
King Jingnan made up his mind and twisted his head hard, and one of his ears was torn off.
"Ah!" The second prince cried out in pain and fainted on the ground.
Seeing that the situation was not good, the guards carried the second prince and ran towards the Wude Hall of the imperial palace.
Emperor Liang had been keeping an eye on the situation in the prison. When he heard that the Second Prince had his ear bitten off by Prince Jingnan, he was so anxious that he could no longer sit still. He rushed to the Wude Hall in a hurry, "Quick! Summon the imperial physician to the Wude Hall!"
Inside the Wude Hall, the Second Prince was pale and had lost consciousness due to excessive bleeding. The bed and the floor were covered in blood, which was a shocking sight!
When Emperor Liang arrived, the imperial physician had just arrived.
The imperial physician was watching Emperor Liang's face turn pale, but he still steeled himself and stepped forward to salute, "Greetings, Your Majesty!"
Emperor Liang's face darkened as he scolded, "Why don't you hurry up and look at the Second Prince? What are you dawdling about here for?"
The imperial physician kept responding, "Yes, yes, yes!"
As he spoke, the imperial physician was carrying a medicine box to the Second Prince's bedside. He used his hand to feel the Second Prince's breath, took the Second Prince's hand to feel his pulse, and cursed in his heart that Prince Jingnan was so cruel. It would be useless even if the Second Prince's life was saved!
After all, the imperial physician had been working in the palace for many years. He knew very well that the person had to be saved no matter what, so he had to give it his all. If he told Emperor Liang right now that the second prince could not be saved, he would be the first to die!
He opened the medicine box, took out a life-saving pill and stuffed it into the Second Prince's mouth. He then used a silver needle to dissolve the pill in his body. Then he took out the gold wound medicine and gauze to bandage the Second Prince.
"Your Majesty, I will go and make the medicine now."
Emperor Liang looked at the Second Prince lying on the bed and asked with concern, "When will he wake up? Is his life in danger?"
The imperial physician's legs were shaking. If it weren't for his long robe, Emperor Liang would have noticed. "Your Majesty, the Second Prince's condition needs further observation. Although dangerous, he has the protection of the Emperor's dragon energy, so he will surely be able to turn danger into safety!"
Emperor Liang nodded and said to Xiao Dezi beside him, "Go and summon the Minister of Justice Zuo Cang to supervise the execution!"
Xiao Dezi responded, "I'll go right away!"
Outside the Imperial Clan House, Lin Xiaoyue sat in a carriage and saw someone being carried out. She found it very strange. Prince Jingnan hadn't been executed yet? It was unlikely that he was carried out. If he was rescued by Jianghu Order, it wouldn't be so smooth. Moreover, he was being carried away towards the palace!
She stretched her head back and said, "Brother Liang, I saw someone being carried into the palace. Who do you think it could be?"
Liang Jingyao thought for a moment and said, "I heard that the executioner today is the Second Prince. Could something have happened to the Second Prince? That shouldn't be the case, right? It's said that Prince Jingnan's hands and feet were broken. How could he have hurt the Second Prince? I'll send someone into the palace to find out the truth."
As he spoke, Liang Jingyao whistled and said to the outside: "Go check the situation in the palace!"
Lin Xiaoyue heard someone agree, and then the carriage moved.
"Brother Liang, did you let Zhan Hu go?"
Liang Jingyao nodded and said, "Yes. Zhan Hu is more agile and good at hiding. I feel more at ease if he goes to the palace."
Not long after, Zhan Hu appeared in the carriage. He half-crouched and said, "Master, Miss Lin, the man who was just carried into the palace was the Second Prince. His ear was bitten off by Prince Jingnan, and his life or death is now uncertain. The Emperor has sent the Minister of Justice, Zuo Cang, to preside over the execution."
Lin Xiaoyue was quite shocked when she heard this. A man with broken limbs could actually bite off a normal person's ear. How underestimated must the Second Prince be? How brainless was he?
"Zhan Hu, you go to the palace and wait until you hear whether the Second Prince is dead or alive, then come back. If the Second Prince dies, only the First Prince will be left. Maybe the Zhenguo family can revive again!"
Zhan Hu also realized the seriousness of the situation and nodded in response: "Okay, I'll go right away!"
Lin Xiaoyue looked at the calm clan residence outside, but her palms were clenched into fists. Will Jianghu Order be successful?
"Brother Liang, you have to send someone to keep an eye on the eldest prince, and the Duke of Zhenguo can't be left alone!"
Liang Jingyao nodded and said, "I know."
Suddenly, there were several figures acting stealthily outside the clan residence, which made Lin Xiaoyue's heart jump. She knew that it was Jianghu Ling who was taking action!
After a while, Zuo Cang, the Minister of Justice, escorted Prince Jingnan out of the prison. As the prison van passed through the streets, the people pointed at it and some even threw rotten vegetable leaves and rotten eggs at it. But from beginning to end, Prince Jingnan never raised his head, as if he was ready to die.
The Meridian Gate is located on the south side of the imperial palace. This gate is located in the center and faces the sun, and is located at the noon point, so it is called the Meridian Gate.
The prison cart stopped at the Meridian Gate and Prince Jingnan was pulled down. Just when everyone thought that Prince Jingnan would be dragged to the execution platform, a group of people came on horseback. The guards escorting the ball cart grabbed Prince Jingnan and threw him onto the horse's back, and then escorted the prisoner kidnappers away.
This completely dumbfounded everyone present, including the Minister of Justice Zuo Cang. How could a guard who eats royal food rob a prisoner?
Only Lin Xiaoyue and Liang Jingyao understood that these were people pretending to be Jianghu Ling!
"Let's go to Shilipo and wait for them!"
At Liang Jingyao's command, the carriage immediately turned around and headed out of the capital.
At the same time, Zuo Cang came to his senses. He shouted to capture the fugitive. The execution ground was in chaos. No one trusted each other among the guards, and capturing the fugitive was even more chaotic.
The people of Jianghu Ling quickly shook off the officers and soldiers who were chasing them. They ran all the way to Shilipo.
Zuo Cang knew that a disaster was about to happen, but he didn't care about anything else. He asked his confidant to deliver a letter home, and he went directly to the palace to apologize.
At Shilipu, Liang Jingyao's carriage was already waiting there. Lin Xiaoyue looked at the bleak scenery of autumn and winter, and felt a little sad in her heart. No matter how prosperous life is, in the end it will fall into the dust like fallen leaves swept by the autumn wind.
Hey! What are you thinking about?
Lin Xiaoyue shook her head in self-mockery and walked over to Liang Jingyao. "Brother Liang, we still have to take back the valley. Otherwise, where will your Cheetah Army be stationed?"
Liang Jingyao nodded and said, "Well, I have a plan. It's windy outside, go back to the carriage and sit down."
At this time, the sound of horse hooves came closer and closer, and finally stopped in front of Liang Jingyao. "We have brought the person you wanted, but where is our money?"
Liang Jingyao glanced at the horse's back and said cautiously, "I have to see if it's what I want!"
