Chapter 132 Let him speak, and I will judge
When facing a strong enemy, Jin An is accustomed to using random words to disrupt the attack before taking action.
"Brother, are you from Beishuo?" Glancing at Lou Yi's ear hole, Jin An said "Oh" and sighed, "Tsk tsk, you are still a wealthy family!"
While feeling the atmosphere of Jin'an, Lou Yi pursed his lips and had a cold expression.
Knowing that Jin'an was disturbing his thoughts and not wanting to be led into trouble by Jin'an, he simply kept silent.
"Strong limbs, and a pretty face," Jin An muttered as he looked at his appearance. Suddenly, a guess popped up in his mind, "Hey, could it be that you are Beishuo..."
Before the "prince" behind him could say anything, Lou Yi's pupils constricted and he threw a punch regardless.
With his life at stake, Jin An had no time to waste words. He could only turn thousands of words into one sentence: "Hey, you!"
Lou Yi's punch was so fast and powerful that it lifted up Jin An's hair.
Feeling that he couldn't take the punch head-on, Jin An quickly dodged to the side.
After dodging the punch and keeping some distance from Lou Yi, he finally had time to finish what he had just said: "How can you attack someone just because you don't agree with me?"
Inexplicably worried that Jin'an would say something unfavorable to him, Lou Yi did not stop, but drew the sword at his waist and chopped at Jin'an without stopping.
Jin An dodged Lou Yi's punch just now and narrowly avoided it. Seeing Lou Yi drawing his sword, Jin An did not dare to underestimate the enemy and quickly replaced the dagger in his hand with a long sword.
The audience below the stage became excited again when they realized that Lou Yi, who came on stage, was as powerful as Jin An, who was better than Dugu Yue.
Today the princess is looking for a husband, and apart from those like Yang Ling who are trying to take advantage of the situation, there is actually a handsome martial arts master who comes on stage!
Many men who had unmarried daughters cast their wolf-like eyes at the two people on the stage, as well as Dugu Yue who was watching with great interest below.
No matter how capable the princess is, she can only have one prince consort. So wouldn't the remaining two be too easy for them?
Seeing so many people coming towards her, she couldn't even watch quietly. Dugu Yue bowed and politely declined their kindness.
"I am still wandering around the world and have no intention of getting married. I don't want to delay you ladies, so please go back."
It was discovered that Dugu Yue was unmoved by any kind of persuasion. The people surrounding her felt frustrated and had no choice but to disperse.
In the stands, Yun Yan's eyes followed Lou Yi's figure.
Although she didn't know why Lou Yi came at this moment, as soon as she saw his delicate face, Yun Yan's anger disappeared for the most part.
Putting down the teacup in her hand, she stared at Lou Yi with shining eyes, as if she wanted to take in every bit of his agile posture.
Since he was only interested in Nan Yingzhi, Yun Ji was too lazy to watch the fight between Jin An and Lou Yi on the ring.
Glancing at the empty seat opposite Nan Yingzhi, he felt extremely bored and started thinking about how to convince Jin An.
Intimidation, using this beautiful girl's body to coerce Jin An, whose fighting power is far superior to his, is obviously not very effective.
Bribery, it seems that there is nothing about him that Jinan wants... right?
Thinking about the strange agreement between Jin An and him, Yun Ji slowly raised his eyebrows as if he had discovered something interesting.
Although he tries his best to play the role of a gentle woman, Jin An herself is unruly and seems to be practicing the opposite of "obedience".
Could it be that what Jin An wanted was for Yun Ting to make a choice between the two of them?
Thinking about Yun Ting's temper, which was exactly the same as his own, and that he would only respond to soft words and not to tough ones, Yun Ji lowered his raised brows.
How could it be easy to win the favor of Yun Ting, who has so many people standing on his heart like petals and three thousand beauties in his harem?
After all, as a member of the empress dowager's maternal family and holding great power, it is really humble for Jin'an to harbor such unspeakable feelings.
Thinking of Jin'an's relationship with the Queen Mother, Yun Ji's eyes became deep.
Previously, Xiao Zhizi said that she was ambushed by people sent by the Queen Mother. As a relative by marriage, did Jin An know about this?
Feeling that lobbying Jin'an involved a wide range of issues, Yun Ji couldn't help but agree with Nan Yingzhi's words.
Treason, indeed, requires long-term planning.
Jin An fought back against Lou Yi but was unable to win. The passion he had just felt for the duel with Dugu Yue slowly cooled.
Jin An dodged the sharp sword that Lou Yi was stabbing at his heart again, and he broke out in a cold sweat, his back instantly soaked.
Different from the beautiful man in green, who regarded the marriage proposal as a competition and would stop when the time was right, the man in black in front of him was aiming for his life with every move.
Those who are barefoot are not afraid of those who wear shoes, but those who value their lives are afraid of those who do not care about their lives.
Not wanting to die for Yun Yan at all, Jin An talked a lot, trying to distract Lou Yi's attention again.
"Brothers from Beishuo, let me tell you, the princess may be beautiful, and the competition may be cruel, but do we really need to risk our lives?"
Finally, he felt that Jin'an's martial arts skills were not inferior to his own, and that he was also a chatterbox, as difficult to deal with as a dog-skin plaster. Lou Yi's face turned cold and he took out a box of matches from his arms.
Not understanding the meaning of his action, Jin An took the opportunity to step forward and tried to put the knife to his neck.
While taking action, he did not forget to interfere with words.
"What are you doing with the matchstick? Are you going to burn me?"
When Jin An saw clearly what Lou Yi took out from the arm restraints, his pupils widened instantly.
He was furious: "Who are you to carry explosives with you?"
Not wanting to risk his life with Lou Yi, Jin Anru, like the slippery fish that had just been pulled ashore, did a backflip and jumped to the stage.
The winner and loser are already known.
Looking from a distance, Yun Ting couldn't see clearly what was in Lou Yi's hand, so he just thought that Jin An had won and was escaping from the battlefield.
Yun Ting felt that Jin An was increasingly out of his control, and was even asking for things from him that were beyond their control. Yun Ting's eyes were dark.
Just at this moment, Nan Yingzhi rubbed his temple and returned to his seat.
"Royal brother," Yun Ting didn't dare to ask about Nan Yingzhi's schedule, nor did he have the courage to get angry with her. He suppressed the resentment in his eyes and said dryly, "You're back."
"Well, I was delayed by something just now, sorry." Nan Yingzhi smiled apologetically at him and Yun Yan, pretending to be unaware of what was going on on the stage, and asked them, "How is the competition going on this stage?"
Before they could reply, she glanced at the hourglass that was almost empty beside the ring, and Lou Yi who stood like a mountain on the stage, and she exclaimed, "Ah!"
"It seems to be coming to an end. The person standing on the stage should be the winner, right? He looks unfamiliar. I wonder which family he is from?"
Yun Ting had never met Lou Yi, and was worried that Jin An had brought shame on him. He shook his head and said, "I don't know."
"Your Majesty," Yun Yan stood up, her fair face flushed, "He is Mr. Lou who rescued Yan'er last time when she was kidnapped."
"Huh? You were kidnapped? When did it happen?" The news was delayed, or maybe Yun Ting didn't care much about Yun Yan, so he had no recollection of the incident. He frowned, "Are you injured anywhere?"
Unexpectedly, Yun Ting didn't even know he was tied up. Yun Yan lowered her head to hide the embarrassment on her face: "Yan'er is fine. It's all thanks to Mr. Lou that Yan'er is unharmed."
After getting off the stage, Jin An ignored Yun Ting's previous order to "pretend that he doesn't know I'm here" and came straight to Yun Ting like a gust of wind.
Walking up to Yun Ting, he lifted his robe and knelt in front of everyone: "I am guilty of failing to complete your majesty's request."
Not wanting to expose his handiwork in Jin An’s rise to power, Yun Ting caught a glimpse of Nan Yingzhi’s probing eyes and barely suppressed his anger: “Let’s talk about it when we get back.”
"I am guilty," Jin An said, as if to say, "If you insist on not punishing me in public, I will keep kneeling." Jin An knelt neatly, unmoved, "Your Majesty, please punish me."
Yun Ting's face turned red and white, feeling that Jin An was deliberately apologizing in front of everyone to embarrass him.
At this moment, the only way to ease the stalemate is to give Jin An a lenient sentence, or even let bygones be bygones, instead.
But Jin'an disobeyed orders, how could he just let it go?
Seeing the tense atmosphere between the two of them, Nan Yingzhi felt that Yun Ji's words about "their relationship breaking down, we can take advantage of the situation" had become a reality.
She was not afraid of making trouble, so she said at the right time: "Your Majesty, I don't know what mistake Lord Jin made. Why don't you let him speak out and I will judge for you?"
