Chapter 249: Just One Person Is Enough
A man in a black robe walked in, followed by Yunqi and other secret guards.
"Prince." The secret guards who were originally preparing to attack Shang Ruoyi shouted in surprise.
How could there be two princes?
Shang Ruoyi raised her pistol and looked at the man pretending to be He Jingheng with a cold look in her eyes: "Are you still pretending? Now that the real master is here, why don't you surrender?"
"Hahaha." He laughed and looked at He Jingheng: "I didn't expect you to come back today, what a coincidence!" A cold smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and there was no warmth in his eyes: "You are lucky today, but your good days are about to end." After he finished speaking, a few black beads appeared in his hand.
Throwing it hard on the ground, a flash of fire appeared and a lot of smoke came out.
"Fire mist bomb!" Shang Ruoyi's mind flashed, and a pair of goggles appeared on her eyes.
Everything in the smoke was in sight. The man in black was about to take advantage of the smoke to escape, Shang Ruoyi raised her pistol, pulled the trigger, and the bullet went straight into the man's arm.
"Hmm." A muffled groan reached Shang Ruoyi's ears, and the voice sounded somewhat familiar.
Shang Ruoyi's heart was slightly shaken. It was during this gap that the man used his lightness skills and took the opportunity to leave.
After putting away her goggles, He Jingheng happened to come to her side and asked nervously, "Are you injured?"
Shang Ruoyi shook her head: "No, what about you?"
"It's okay. This fire mist bomb just looks intimidating, but it actually has no killing power." He Jingheng looked her up and down, and only felt relieved after confirming that she was not injured.
"Your Highness, I was incompetent and let the thief escape." Yunqi knelt on one knee on the ground: "Please punish me, Your Highness."
"The monk can escape, but the temple cannot. What are you worried about?" He Jingheng snorted coldly: "Among these four countries, only one force uses this kind of fire mist bomb."
"You mean, Akabane Villa?"
Akabane Villa?
Shang Ruoyi frowned slightly.
It’s Akabane Villa again.
The woman who was dealt with earlier was from Akabane Villa.
"Do you have any grudge against Chiyu Villa?" Shang Ruoyi asked softly.
"You also know about Akabane Villa?"
Shang Ruoyi recounted what happened in the palace earlier. He Jingheng's expression was slightly cold: "That woman said that the Dingguo Palace wiped out their entire clan?"
Yunqi was a little confused. Everyone in Dingguo's palace, from the prince to the soldiers, only fought on the battlefield and never participated in destroying a family. The only ones who could do such a thing were the underworld forces or the royal family's minions. The emperor had a team that specialized in assassinations, called the Golden Feather Guards. Everyone in the team was a master and they only obeyed the emperor's orders. If the emperor said that a certain family was an eyesore, they would sneak in and execute the members of that family in secret.
Could it be them?
"Since these two people are from Chiyu Villa, I want to see how the Dingguo Palace offended them." He looked at Shang Ruoyi and smiled: "But the most important thing right now is another matter, where is my father?"
Shang Ruoyi was stunned. Just as she was thinking about what to say, she saw a secret guard running in: "My Lord, it's bad. The granary is on fire."
what?
He Jingheng didn't care about anything else and turned around and walked out.
Shang Ruoyi saw everyone leaving, and she waved her right hand gently, and He Yuwen's figure appeared on the bed.
She took out a silver needle and gently pricked his arm. The next moment, he slowly opened his eyes.
"Miracle doctor." He exhaled slowly and felt refreshed.
After staying in the space for a few hours, I breathed in the rich spiritual energy in the space, and naturally felt relaxed physically and mentally.
"Did the king fall asleep just now?"
Shang Ruoyi put away the silver needle and smiled: "The prince is sleeping very soundly."
"It seems that this king is really old. He can even fall asleep at a time like this." He smiled heartily: "The miracle doctor seems to be young. I didn't expect that his medical skills are so profound. He can even heal this kind of injury of the king."
"Master taught me well." Shang Ruoyi stood up and nodded slightly: "Your Highness, please have a good rest. You are in good health now. In a month or so, all the hidden injuries in your body will be healed."
"Thank you, doctor." He Yuwen looked at her with satisfaction and suddenly asked, "Is the girl married?"
Shang Ruoyi nodded: "The younger generation is already married."
He Yuwen sighed with some regret. When He Jingheng got married, he was far away in the borderland. Until now, he had never seen his daughter-in-law. He only knew that she was the illegitimate daughter of that old fox Shangnian.
Whenever he thought of this, he felt like there was something stuck in his throat. Not to mention a concubine's daughter, he didn't even look at Shangnian's legitimate daughter at all. The concubine's daughter was probably even more disgusting.
"Oh." He Yuwen sighed. A woman with such superb medical skills would definitely be a great help. How great would it be if she hadn't gotten married yet?
Although the Dingguo Palace no longer exists, its power is still second to none compared to other families. A woman will definitely not suffer if she marries into their Dingguo Palace.
But now that she was already betrothed, He Yuwen naturally would not have any other thoughts. After a while, he couldn't help but ask, "Miss, since you were invited by my unpromising son, how do you think my son compares to your husband?"
Shang Ruoyi couldn't help but wonder, is this the custom in Tianshun? Why are they so willing to be a matchmaker?
Just then, He Jingheng walked in and saw He Yuwen sitting on the bed. He raised his eyebrows slightly, but did not ask any more questions.
"Dad." He Jingheng stepped forward and asked, "How do you feel?"
"You little brat, you actually came to ask me a question." He Yuwen glared at him. The more he looked at his son, the angrier he got. "I'm still alive."
When Shang Ruoyi saw this scene, she found it very funny. She didn't expect that Prince Ding, who was known for his calmness and seriousness, would also have this side in front of his son.
"Sir, the prince is fine. He will be back to normal in less than a month, and his internal energy will be able to function smoothly." Shang Ruoyi picked up the medicine box and said softly, "I have something else to do. I'll leave first."
Looking at her fleeing back, his eyebrows slightly raised.
Before he could think more, a big hand patted him hard on the back.
This time when he went to the Western Regions, he was ambushed and had many wounds on his body. Thanks to her pills, otherwise he would not be able to get out of bed and walk now, let alone rush back at this time.
Now that his father had slapped him, the wound that had finally scabbed over was likely to open again.
"You stinky boy, you can't even handle a woman. You really bring shame to the Dingguo Palace and to your father."
He Jingheng sneered when he heard this: "My son only found out today that the reputation of the Dingguo Palace is maintained by this kind of thing." A sarcastic smile appeared at the corner of his lips: "In this regard, my son is naturally far from being comparable to my father."
"You!" He Yuwen swallowed the words that were on the tip of his tongue. According to the ancestral precepts of the Dingguo Palace, concubines were not allowed, but he not only took a concubine, but also had a son with her.
"My son, in this life, only needs to rely on one person."
