Chapter 125 Let you take a good look at your ugly face!
"What do you mean, Princess? Don't you want to compete anymore?"
Seeing that Zhuang Shihan was reluctant to turn around and neither agreed nor refused, those who had originally stood firmly on her side couldn't help but have some thoughts in their minds.
Someone suddenly shouted, and the soldiers became excited instantly.
Some people scolded this person for talking nonsense, but more voices were shouting at Zhuang Shihan to not hide her abilities and just show her strength.
So that those who question her will shut up!
The person who was shouting the loudest said this while glaring at Song Yanxi fiercely. When he turned around and looked at Zhuang Shihan again, the love in his eyes could not be hidden.
He loves Zhuang Shihan, which is his own business. Song Yanxi has no right to interfere and even wants to praise him for his courage.
But he was praising her and criticizing her so loudly, as if he was afraid that she couldn't hear him?
I just don't know if the person he loves will appreciate his hard work.
Hearing the shouts behind her, which became louder and louder, Zhuang Shihan felt like her head was exploding.
The praises that made her happy in the past now seemed like death warrants, making her upset and even want to kill someone.
Zhuang Shihan took a deep breath, forced a smile, turned around, swallowed the words "shut up" that were on the tip of her tongue, and raised her hands slightly. "I understand your feelings, brothers, but curing Chang Jiu is no small matter."
As she spoke, she looked at Song Yanxi and said with some embarrassment, "I have been practicing medicine for many years, and even learned from a master... a master from a famous family, while Princess Yong'an is self-taught. There is a huge gap between our strengths, so even if I win, it would be an unfair victory."
Song Yanxi raised her eyebrows slightly, "So, Princess Shihan has admitted defeat?"
Before Zhuang Shihan could say anything, the soldiers who supported her became unhappy.
"The princess didn't compete with you because she was afraid that you would lose so badly that you wouldn't be able to continue in the army. Don't be ungrateful!"
"That's right. My brother's hand was rotten at the time. If Princess Shihan hadn't chopped off his arm, my brother would have died long ago."
"My life was saved by Princess Shihan. Anyone who messes with the princess is messing with me, Old Sun!"
A few people were talking and trying hard to squeeze towards Song Yanxi, clearly wanting to take advantage of the chaos to teach her a lesson.
An Yi held his sword horizontally and said coldly, "Anyone who dares to move forward will die."
"You are so arrogant!" Lieutenant Jiang pushed everyone aside and strode towards them with a gloomy face.
The people closest to the front were his confidants. When they saw him coming, they were so excited that they almost cried.
Lieutenant Jiang kicked the leader and cursed, "Who do you think you are? How dare you act so presumptuously in front of an honored person? Be careful or I'll chop off your head and use it as a chamber pot!"
The man who was kicked rolled his eyes and immediately rolled on the ground twice, begging for mercy: "Deputy Captain, spare my life. I am a dog that is too bold and has no eyes..."
"Shut up!" After hearing what he wanted to hear, Deputy Captain Jiang shouted.
He looked at An Yi, who had a cold face, and said with a fake smile: "Commander An, His Majesty only gave you the empty title of commander, and did not grant you the power of life and death.
Even if His Royal Highness Prince Jin were here today, he would never call for the killing of innocent soldiers."
At the end of his words, Lieutenant Jiang almost gritted his teeth and said, "The Da'an Army has its own iron laws. It is definitely not a one-man show!"
His words successfully ignited the fire that was pent up in the hearts of the soldiers.
Everyone shouted: "Well said, Lieutenant!"
Seeing that the situation was getting out of control, An Yi protected Song Yanxi and took a half step back, lowering his voice and saying, "If a fight breaks out later, just run east. The prince and General Cheng Duan are not far away."
People who practice martial arts usually have good hearing, not to mention that the two people were not far away, there was no reason why they could not hear such a loud noise.
Unless... they don't want to care.
Cheng Duan was from the Cheng family of the southwest. Although he was a side branch, he could be considered the nephew of the imperial concubine. Since he entered the court as an official, he was tacitly regarded as a member of the Ning Wang faction.
It is understandable that he is unwilling to see his competitor, Prince Jin, regain military power for the sake of the people he is loyal to.
But what about Mo Jinchuan himself?
This deputy captain Jiang clearly had a prejudice against An Yi. If the two of them really started fighting, he would definitely kill him.
Song Yanxi was not worried that An Yi would lose. With his skills, he could easily defeat not only one but even ten people.
What she feared was that swords and knives had no eyes.
There are too many eyes staring at Mo Jinchuan in the capital, and no one knows how many people are hoping day and night that he will die on the battlefield.
If Emperor Xuande had not acted forcefully and caught all the officials by surprise, it would have been difficult to decide whether he would lead the army to war.
Because those people knew very well that with Mo Jinchuan's strength, even if he was sitting in a wheelchair watching the sand table and making commands, he could still defeat the enemy troops on the border and win military merits.
Emperor Xuande always loved him and rewarded him generously for his merits, never caring whether it was in accordance with the rules or not.
But he has already been sealed beyond measure.
So even though Mo Jinchuan is now disabled in both legs and should have no chance of becoming emperor, they dare not gamble on the one in ten thousand probability.
Since we can't stop him, force him to make a mistake!
Song Yanxi's expression suddenly changed, and she lowered her voice and said, "An Yi, don't fight with them."
Otherwise, you will be really fooled.
Although he held a nominal position in the army, he was able to appear in the open and take care of and protect Mo Jinchuan openly.
If anything happened to him, it would undoubtedly be like cutting off Mo Jinchuan's arm.
This deputy lieutenant surnamed Jiang looked as if he was afraid that things wouldn't get out of hand. It was definitely not just to stand up for Zhuang Shihan.
An Yi's face was stern, "Miss, it's too late."
As soon as he finished speaking, he heard Deputy Captain Jiang order: "Brothers, tie up this thief who is using the name of His Royal Highness Prince Jin to disrupt the morale of the army, and bring him before the prince for his decision.
If anyone resists, they will be killed on the spot!"
"Kill?" The soldiers who were eager to try suddenly stopped.
Someone whispered, "Deputy Captain, this person is someone close to His Royal Highness Prince Jin."
Lieutenant Jiang narrowed his eyes, "So what? His Majesty once said that the emperor is guilty of the same crime as the common people. His Royal Highness Prince Jin is even more strict in military discipline. Even if he knew about it, he would deal with it impartially and would not show any leniency."
"What a great show of no tolerance!" Song Yanxi stood out from behind An Yi, looking at the man in front of her whose expression was a little ferocious because of his strong murderous intent, she felt disgusted.
She asked in a cold voice: "Do you have a bronze mirror?
If you don’t have any, you can just get a basin of water.”
Deputy Captain Jiang couldn't wait to fight An Yi, and the muscles at the corners of his mouth twitched slightly, "What do you mean, Princess?"
Song Yanxi's face was stern. "I'll lend it to the deputy captain, so that you can see your ugly face clearly!"
Everyone looked at Lieutenant Jiang, and was shocked by the ferocious expression on his face, which he couldn't retract in time, and they didn't miss the murderous intent in his eyes.
The eerie atmosphere was broken by a burst of laughter.
Chang Jiu muttered softly, "Princess Yong'an speaks so sweetly. She should just pee and let the deputy captain take care of it..."
The people around him were about to cry, covering his mouth with their hands and laughing dryly: "Children's words are innocent, children's words are innocent!"
Deputy Captain Jiang spat and cursed, "You little bastard, I'll send you to see your grandfather right now!"
"You dare!" Song Yanxi took a few quick steps and stood in front of the two of them, her cold little face full of anger.
She coldly questioned, "Just now, didn't this lieutenant keep saying that the army doesn't have one person's final say? How come when it comes to him, he can just fight and kill as he pleases?"
