Chapter 347
"You!" Yuan Xiang was furious. She helped him, and he yelled at her? Her temper was so strong that she almost lost it right there and then.
"Hmm, loud, huh?"
"You want to be a hero and save the damsel, right?"
"You little brat, I'm telling you, you're done!" Master Lu shouted angrily and arrogantly, "Knock him down!"
"Let him never stand up again!"
"Yes!"
The thugs who were beaten black and blue by Guan Ning were eager for revenge. A vicious look flashed in their eyes and they rushed forward and attacked together.
Dozens of knife blades came crashing down with such force and power that although it wouldn't kill him, breaking his legs was inevitable.
"Do not!!"
Tang Xiang'er and Sheng Qi who rushed out shouted.
"If they dare to fight back, they will die!" Master Lu shouted.
Guan Ning was forced to loosen his clenched fists, and was caught in a dilemma.
At this critical moment, there was a sudden sound of horse hooves in the back mountain, and the ground shook.
"Let's see who dares to move!!"
A majestic roar echoed through the forest, startling all the birds.
Many people looked back, bewildered.
Master Lu seemed to have noticed something, and his expression changed: "Quick, do it, take him down!!"
call out……
An arrow came from a hundred paces away and hit Master Lu's arm.
boom!
Master Lu fell to the ground, clutching his shoulder and screaming, "Ah!!"
"Master!" The miners exclaimed in shock. Who was it?
Bows and arrows are not something that ordinary people can have. Ordinary people can have swords, but once they have bows and arrows and armor, it is a serious crime that can lead to the execution of nine generations of their clan.
Guan Ning, who had escaped the disaster, breathed a sigh of relief and looked behind him. He saw more than a hundred soldiers riding horses and charging towards him. They were very powerful and were far superior to this group of thugs.
The middle-aged man in the lead was riding a flaming horse, wearing a purple python robe, and flowing cloud boots. His facial features were strong, and he embodied nobility to the extreme.
The sudden appearance of a third-party force led to a standoff at the scene.
"Shut up!"
The middle-aged man held the reins, holding a bow and arrow in his hand, and said in a very arrogant tone: "Humph, you dog slave!"
"You dare not listen to my words? Are you disrespecting the royal family?"
A big hat knocked down, and all the miners' dogs changed color.
"King Ping!"
"It's King Ping!"
"We pay our respects to King Ping!" Everyone was forced to salute. This was hierarchical suppression, the regular army encountering the unconventional ones.
Master Lu's face was pale. He was being held by someone. He was so arrogant before, but now he dared not say a word. His face was grim and he said, "Greetings, Your Majesty."
"I didn't know it was you who came."
"You don't know, you don't know what you are doing in my Lingzhou territory?" King Ping snorted coldly, not giving any face at all, as if the two sides had a grudge against each other.
Hearing this, Master Lu's face turned even uglier. This is Lingzhou?
"Your Highness!" He gritted his teeth and said aggrievedly, "This fellow killed my son-in-law from the Zheng family of Xingyang. He is the mortal enemy of our Zheng family. We must capture him."
"If I have offended you in any way, I will definitely report this to the head of the family and apologize in person."
He emphasized that he was an enemy of the Zheng family.
Prince Ping glanced at Guan Ning, then at the masked Yuan Xiang, and raised the corner of his mouth: "Sorry, you can't take the person away!"
"get out."
"Go back and tell that old fellow Zheng Yuan that if he dares to cross the border again, I will report him to my brother!"
The strong tone left no room for negotiation, and he didn't even look at the person he was speaking to, which perfectly interpreted the four words "royal relatives and nobles".
"you!"
"Huh?!" King Ping glared, looking intimidating without even getting angry.
Miso miso miso!
King Ping's personal guards drew their swords one after another, ready to kill if there was any disagreement.
Master Lu's face turned as ugly as pig liver: "Your Highness Prince Ping... He is an enemy of the Zheng family of Xingyang!"
"What's wrong with the Zheng family in Xingyang? Do you mean that I must do things according to your wishes?" King Ping's words were sharp.
Master Lu's face turned ashen and he was extremely angry, but he didn't dare to break up with the king, because after all, he was not even a member of the Zheng family, so how could he stop the king from asking for people?
In the end, he could only bring up his family and said, "Your Highness Prince Ping, if you insist on protecting this person, I will also report it to the family, and then the head of the family..."
Hearing this naked threat, King Ping became angry.
"Are you going to leave or not?" He said coldly, as if issuing a final notice!
In an instant, the scene became tense and suffocating.
Master Lu shuddered, as if he had fallen into an icy cave. He glanced at Guan Ning with resentment and anger, then said, "Let's go!"
After saying that, he ran away with his men in shame without even looking back.
The scene was quiet. Tang Xianger rushed to Guan Ning and asked, "Brother Guan, how are you?"
"It's okay, how about you?" Guan Ning asked.
Tang Xiang'er also shook her head, and then the two of them came to Shengqi together.
At this time, King Ping spoke politely: "He looks seriously injured. Come with me."
Guan Ning bowed, but did not insist: "Thank you, Your Highness Prince Ping."
"No need to thank me, I'm just doing a favor." King Ping said calmly.
"Entrusted by someone?" Guan Ning looked up and immediately guessed who it was.
Prince Ping looked at Yuan Xiang, who was covering her face and trying to slip away. "Niece, how am I going to explain this to your father if I let you go?"
Yuan Xiang's movements froze, and he said in frustration, "Eighth Prince, how did you know it was me?"
"Nonsense, you grew up under my watch, how could I not know?"
"Don't say anything, let's go back to Lingzhou first." King Ping waved his hand, appearing very decisive.
Suddenly, many people surrounded Yuan Xiang to prevent her from escaping.
Yuan Xiang bit her lip and stomped her feet, angry, but there was nothing she could do.
With the help of King Ping's men, Shengqi was quickly lifted onto the horse and began his return journey.
With King Ping as our banner, we were very safe along the way.
Yuan Xiang looked at Guan Ning coldly and muttered, "You son of a bitch, if it weren't for helping you, I wouldn't have been discovered by the Eighth Prince. And you dared to yell at me just now, I'm not done with you!"
Guan Ning was speechless: "I am trying to stop you from revealing your father's name. Once it is revealed, your father might get into trouble."
"What trouble?"
"If I had known, I would have shouted it out just now." Yuan Xiang said rebelliously.
Guan Ning was ashamed.
Then he thanked her earnestly, "Anyway, thank you very much for what you did just now. I'll remember this favor."
"Then help me escape!" Yuan Xiang knew that he would be taken away soon after he went to Prince Ping's Mansion.
Guan Ning wiped his sweat fiercely and said, "Change your request."
"Will you help me or not?" Yuan Xiang was anxious.
"Cough, cough, cough!"
At this moment, a cough interrupted the two people's whispering.
"Niece, are you treating me as if I don't exist?" King Ping looked at her unhappily, but without any ill intention, as if she were an invaluable elder.
Yuan Xiang curled her lips: "I won't go back anyway, even if I die!"
Prince Ping seemed to vaguely know that the father and daughter of the Yuan family were not getting along. He sighed slightly, not knowing what to say, and just looked at Guan Ning again.
"Brother Yuan informed me that something might happen at the mine and asked me to help you if necessary."
"But how did you get together?"
