Chapter 195: Master Ye, a Delicate and Easily Pushed Away
Chu Li listened to the sound of tiles on the roof. Rong Xiong's men would not kill people openly, as that would only confirm Concubine Rong's guilt.
Hearing the footsteps getting closer, she quickly hid in the dark.
"Chu Li." Someone suddenly patted her shoulder gently from behind. Chu Li subconsciously turned around with the dagger in her hand. When she saw that it was Ye Hanting, she put away the dagger.
"Sir, this place is dangerous, please leave quickly."
Ye Hanting curled the corners of his lips. Has Chu Li learned to worry about his safety now?
He never expected that the next sentence Chu Li said would hit him right in the heart.
"Sir, you don't know martial arts. I won't be able to take care of you when the fight starts."
Ye Hanting looked speechlessly at Chi Yan who was laughing secretly at the side. He was being laughed at by Chu Li.
"Chiyan, protect your master."
Chu Li pushed Ye Hanting towards Chi Yan.
Ye Hanting's eyes were deep. Okay, he was just a "weak scholar", so Chu Li could think whatever she wanted.
Gradually, two men in black jumped down from the beams.
Then the prison door was opened and a group of men in black rushed in.
Chu Li watched them rush towards one of the cells, and she immediately stepped forward with a dagger to stop them.
Soon, they were fighting each other.
Ye Hanting's ten secret guards also joined the melee.
Ye Hanting looked at Chi Yan and said, "Go and help."
Chi Yan stood in front of Ye Hanting and said, "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince cares about the master and wants me to protect the master!"
Ye Hanting kicked Chi Yan out.
Chi Yan was forced to join in. As the fight went on, the man in black broke the moral code and used smoke to knock down the officer and Ye Hanting's secret guards.
Chu Li and Chi Yan reacted quickly and escaped from the smoke.
When the smoke cleared, another group of people arrived and helped the men in black evacuate.
After a while, the three of them left Jingzhao Prefecture and chased after the men in black.
Immediately afterwards, Chu Li saw a familiar face walking out of the darkness.
The man looked at Chu Li with an unrestrained smile, "Your Highness, it seems that you have messed up?"
"Master Ye is here too. It seems Master Ye's ability is just this level!"
"Pei Ye!" Chu Li shouted, "Do you know what you are doing?"
Pei Ye sneered, "Of course I know."
He stretched his muscles and bones gently. The wound was still painful. He took a breath and said teasingly, "Master Ye is so cruel that he actually complained to the emperor. Are you a child?"
Chu Li looked at the dark crowd behind him. There were dozens of men in black following him.
This prison break was probably planned by Pei Ye and Rong Xiong.
"Pei Ye, get out of the way! If you dare to stop me again, I will punish you tomorrow and make sure you are beaten until you can't even get up!"
Pei Ye smiled and moved closer to Chu Li step by step. Ye Hanting subconsciously stood in front of Chu Li, but was pulled back by Chu Li.
The corners of Chi Yan's lips twitched. His master was really weak and easy to be pushed down now. The play was becoming more and more real.
Pei Ye suddenly attacked Chu Li. During the fight, Pei Ye showed no mercy and attacked very hard.
His palm wind passed fiercely in front of Ye Hanting, and Ye Hanting stood in front of Chu Li. Pei Ye's palm was aimed at Ye Hanting's heart.
Chi Yan took a deep breath. The fact that his master knew martial arts was about to be exposed.
He was about to attack, but Ye Hanting found an angle and avoided being hit in the chest by Pei Ye.
"Sir!" Chu Li slapped Pei Ye angrily.
Ye Hanting wiped the blood from the corner of his lips and looked at Chu Li weakly, "It's okay."
Chi Yan simply couldn't bear to watch. His master's martial arts was not the best in the world, but he was definitely ranked in the top four. How could he be beaten by someone?
When did the master become as fragile as a delicate flower?
It was not until he saw the guilt and heartache in the prince's eyes that Chi Yan finally understood. Oh my god, it turned out to be a self-torture trick of his master!
The master actually used it so shamelessly!
Good, good, this is teachable.
Pei Ye wiped the blood from the corner of his lips. He looked at Chu Li supporting Ye Hanting with guilt in his eyes.
These two people are so annoying to him!
He is still here, and they are in love. Is this so disrespectful to the opponent?
Pei Ye said, "My mission has been completed. Go and chase him. It's your ability if you can catch up with him."
Dozens of men in black made way for Chu Li and Ye Hanting.
Chu Li helped Ye Hanting walk over. After they left the sight of the man in black, Ye Hanting coughed and said, "Chu Li, I'm fine. Believe me, even a witness won't die."
Chu Li nodded, "I believe you, sir. I always have."
A warm feeling welled up in Ye Hanting's heart. It seemed that Chu Li knew how to care about him and trust him.
And because Pei Ye was injured, Chu Li immediately took action to injure Pei Ye.
For him, this time he used a self-torture tactic to win over Chu Li's childhood sweetheart.
As for the matter of witnesses, he was not worried at all.
After all, he was prepared.
......
Rong Xiong's men took the witness and wanted to kill him to silence him.
Suddenly, Pei Ye caught up with them and blocked their way.
The leader looked at Pei Ye, "What do you mean, Commander Pei?"
Pei Ye sneered, "Tell your Lord, so many imperial guards saw the Lord's men come to rob the prison in person. Who are you robbing the prison for? Come before the Emperor and explain clearly!"
The leader panicked, "You actually betrayed the Marquis!"
Pei Ye rubbed his brows and said, "Speak nicely. When did I ever agree to cooperate with your Lord? It's obviously his one-sided wish, and I'm just putting myself in the game!"
"Our Lord has no grudge against you, why do you want to harm him?"
Pei Ye's eyes darkened instantly. "That baby was killed by Concubine Rong. Shouldn't she have died?"
He was cruel and ruthless, but he never hurt the elderly, the young, women or children in his life.
He deliberately pretended to let Rong Xiong's men escape, just because he didn't want Chu Li and Ye Hanting to take the credit.
Because he wanted to personally deal with that vicious woman, Concubine Rong.
"Aren't you afraid of offending the Marquis?" the leader shouted.
Pei Ye sneered, "There is no one in the world that I, Pei Ye, dare not offend."
When Rong Xiong's men saw Pei Ye being so arrogant, they gritted their teeth and looked at their accomplices who had joined them in the prison breakout, "Quick, kill them!"
Pei Ye signaled to his subordinates behind him, and the imperial guards quickly surrounded Rong Xiong's secret guards.
Soon, the fight was over and Pei Ye walked towards several witnesses.
His subordinates pulled aside the messy hair of the witnesses. After Pei Ye picked up the torch and approached, his eyes suddenly changed.
"How can it be!"
"Chu Li! Ye Hanting! You are kidding me!"
......
Chu Li and Ye Hanting returned to Jingzhao Prefecture, and soon Lan Yi arrived.
When Ye Hanting saw him, he knew that the witnesses were safe and sound.
Unexpectedly, Lan Yi said, "Master, Pei Ye intervened and captured Rong Xiong's men, but he left in a rage because those witnesses were fake police officers."
After listening to this, Ye Hanting noticed that Chu Li beside him had a smile on his face.
This girl is very shrewd. She must have told Zhang Zhilong to replace the witness and the policeman long ago.
Chu Li drank a cup of tea calmly. When she saw that Lan Yi was not there, she knew that Ye Hanting must have sent Lan Yi to intercept Rong Xiong's men.
However, she also had a backup plan, and the performance just now was performed for Pei Ye to see.
She put down the cup and asked, "Sir, why aren't you surprised at all and don't you praise me?"
Ye Hanting gently tapped her brow with his finger, "Pei Ye intercepted the man, and seeing you so calm, I know you must have an idea in your little head."
Chi Yan grinned at his master and complained in his heart: Master, look at the way you dote on me, I'm almost jealous.
Chu Li smiled slyly, and then said seriously: "Sir, I think the emperor still needs Rong Xiong's power to deal with the Murong tribe. If I come forward and announce the crimes of Concubine Rong to the world, Rong Xiong will definitely not concentrate on fighting, and the emperor will definitely not punish Concubine Rong according to the law. What do you think is the best way?"
Ye Hanting agreed, "You are right, we need to think of a solution."
