Chapter 391.4: Look For Jin Qinw.a.n.g For Help
“Young master, wait up.” The guards that followed along, one got left behind, while the others all chased after their young master.
Towards this development, that peddler was also endlessly shocked. This, this, this………..
The guard that got left behind was actually quite composed, “It’s fine, just continue selling your things. This matter, guaranteed to have nothing to do with you.”
“You, you all………..”
“Our young master is from General He’s Manor. The Northeastern Army, don’t know if you know or not………….”
“Of course I know.” The peddler hurriedly nodded his head, even carrying a bit of excitement. The Northeastern Army’s reputation although wasn’t especially resounding, but this peddler just happened to have a brother in the Northeastern Army. As such, towards the Northeastern Army, he knew a lot more about than ordinary people. As soon as he heard that was General He’s young master, his impression towards him instantly shot up.
The He family defended Qi Yuan’s northeast borders. This year, General He brought along his family members back to the capital, and when leaving, he just took one son with him. This, in the entire capital, can also be considered a big matter. The people that knew were even quite numerous.
That peddler stretched his neck to look at He s.h.i.+ Hai, but unfortunately, the other party had already disappeared without a trace.
Towards the peddler’s look of admiration, that guard tugged the corner of his mouth. If he were to know what kind of personality their young master had, then he probably won’t be like this. Even if not avoiding at every corner, he was still not much different from a plague demon.
“About that, young man, why don’t you also quickly follow after. From the looks of it, the other party doesn’t seem good to provoke. If by chance conflict were to occur, what to do if the young master suffers a loss?”
“It’s fine, young master won’t suffer a loss.” However, thinking it over, the other party’s bodyguards carried swords on them, and the sword’s model was even somewhat different from Qi Yuan’s. Young master didn’t pay attention to outside matters, just wanting look for people to fight, but they can’t not know, especially since from now on, the He family’s young and old perhaps will be residing in the capital. To want to gain a foothold, one naturally needed to be thoroughly knowledgable of the matters in the capital, else if by chance one were to stumble, one won’t even know which deity one ran into. As such, the old madam and madam both warned them repeatedly, the most recent matters, what one needs to pay attention to, one must pay close attention.
In Qi Yuan, to be able to see a bodyguard carrying a blade, that was certainly the kind belonging to the imperial clan, or someone with a very high status. Inside the imperial palace, it was only natural, but outside, that would certainly just be someone from a qinw.a.n.g or junw.a.n.g manor. However, for one that didn’t belong to Qi Yuan, yet also had similar privileges, this ident.i.ty was very easy to guess.
Truthfully speaking, for people like them, as former soldiers, towards their own country’s imperial clan, they naturally would harbor reverence, but towards other countries’, that was completely not the case. As long as you were the one to cause trouble first, then sorry, regardless if you’re an imperial prince or w.a.n.gye, they all dared to beat up first then talk. Former Wei further didn’t need to be mentioned. They were definitely Qi Yuan’s mortal enemy among mortal enemies. That’s why, even if knowing that his young master might start fighting the other party, he didn’t have any intention of stopping either.
He s.h.i.+ Hai was the tyrant of the northeast border town, but the target of his aggression was also carefully selected. Ordinary people, he won’t touch. According to his words, bullying those that were powerless to fight back was meaningless. Only when both sides were able to duke it out, would it be satisfying. That’s why, He s.h.i.+ Hai finding the people of Former Wei unpleasant was one thing, but mostly, it was still because his hands were itchy. And that person just now, in his eyes, perhaps was a pretty good opponent.
Speaking of which, He s.h.i.+ Hai had the opportunity to exchange moves with Li Hong Yuan, so shouldn’t be itching for a fight. Just, unfortunately, these last few days, Jin Qinw.a.n.g Manor’s gates were shut on him. During this period of time, Jin Qinw.a.n.g didn’t want to put up with him. He s.h.i.+ Hai even somewhat lost all interest in life.
His grandmother and mother had been repeatedly warning him, letting him not cause trouble, but heaven knows how bored he was strolling around outside. Finally having encountered something, even the kind where he completely had reason to look for the other party, how can he easily let it slip by?
The He family’s doctrine was to not cause trouble on one’s own. Their duty was protecting the home and defending the country. Bullying the weak, this kind of thing, they further can’t do. But, if someone were to bully them, the people of the He family definitely won’t cower either. And towards their enemies, they further needed to relentlessly hit back.
Towards the matter of Former Wei’s emissaries entering Qi Yuan, He s.h.i.+ Hai perhaps didn’t know, but he definitely had an understanding towards weapons. The rest, he perhaps wasn’t able to distinguish completely, but based on that blade, he just knew those people were from Former Wei. The peddler was the weak, their own people, getting bullied by someone from an enemy country, as a member of the He family, what else is there to say? Fight back! He s.h.i.+ Hai, whose hands were incredibly itchy, practically couldn’t be more bold and confident.
Even if the peddler had gone to exchange the money, that party of people still didn’t travel too far. He s.h.i.+ Hai randomly asked around and just very quickly caught up.
He s.h.i.+ Hai directly went up to block the path, having an incredibly arrogant look, “Say, brother, merely a fruit, can’t cost that much money. You all may think you have a lot of money, but we, Qi Yuan, further emphasize on however much there is, however much it is. That’s why, this young master just went through the trouble to have the money delivered back to you.”
That Former Wei prince’s bodyguards saw that the situation was amiss, immediately just half drawing the blade at their waist.
However, He s.h.i.+ Hai was unconcerned, even carrying a bit of excitement as he smiled.
Seeing this expression on He s.h.i.+ Hai, that prince just knew, this person wasn’t ordinary. Afraid, this person’s status wasn’t simple either. As such, he extended his hand to stop his own guards, “This bit of money, this prince indeed doesn’t take seriously. That peddler doesn’t have it easy selling that bit of fruit, so just rewarded him.”
“This won’t do. The people of Qi Yuan may be poor, but do not lack ambition, so returning this to you.” He s.h.i.+ Hai lifted his hand and just had the bundle thrown over.
The bundle although was wrapped tightly, the strings tying together the copper coins had already gotten severed by He s.h.i.+ Hai. With this toss, in addition to the other party subconsciously blocking, nearly two thousand copper coins just rained down on the ground. Although it wouldn’t go as far as to injure someone, but that scene was also entertaining enough.
He s.h.i.+ Hai frowned, “Even if you’re a prince, no matter how rich you are, still can’t be wasteful like this. Could it be that your old man never taught you before? As someone from the imperial clan, you should further be hardworking and frugal, setting an example for the people of the world. You doing this, not only damages your own moral conduct, it’ll even damage your own country’s.” As he said this, he even shook his head and sighed.
The Former Wei prince laughed in anger. In Former Wei, he was also arrogant and domineering, commanding the wind and rain, an exceptionally favored prince, the kind that retorted the heavens, retorted the earth, and retorted his brothers. Of course, compared to Li Hong Yuan, he was still far too inferior. At least, he didn’t dare to retort his own old man. He’d never encountered this kind of situation like today’s before. “This is deliberately picking a fight”
“I’m just doing what I think should be done. Having insulted my Qi Yuan’s citizen, honor does not allow me to turn my back. If you think this is picking a fight, then so be it.”
Little tyrant He was actually able to say such high-sounding words? Was this a talent he originally just possessed, but in the past, never had the need to use, or the result of Jin Qinw.a.n.g’s training? Still pending further discussion.
Since that’s the case, what else was there to say? Just directly start fighting! In any case, both were the type to resolve matters using their fists.
In that moment, it was just like lightning striking the landmines, instantly exploding.
Since the masters already started fighting, what more is there to say about the people below? Naturally it was also just directly exchanging blows. However, it was four against three, the blade against bare fists. But, because He s.h.i.+ Hai’s guards were all soldiers, having seen blood before, having gotten tainted with human life, when fighting, they naturally were formidable. Even if lacking weapons, for the time being, they still won’t be at a disadvantage. However, they were only the He family’s bodyguard because their body had suffered damage, thus staying behind, so as time dragged on, they certainly won’t be able to hold up. But, this while, they simply won’t care about this.
The Former Wei prince, fighting in his own territory, has never lost before, of course, not excluding the fact that others didn’t dare to fight him for real. However, one still had to admit, he really was very strong. Unfortunately, He s.h.i.+ Hai was even stronger than him. Moreover, even when facing Qi Yuan’s qinw.a.n.g, his own old man and brothers, he all won’t show mercy, so this while, he further didn’t hold back in the slightest.
Furthermore, don’t know if it’s because lately, he’d been continuously beaten up by Jin Qinw.a.n.g, the He s.h.i.+ Hai who normally wasn’t that interested in one-sidedly beating someone, at this time, was instead very excited. Turns out, bullying someone was also very satisfying. Thus, he just became increasingly ruthless.
This situation, the Former Wei prince probably never expected. Even if he was lacking in strength, the other party should still hold back. He’d just entered Qi Yuan’s capital for the first time, yet the other party already dared to beat him to death, was he not afraid of causing conflict between the two countries?
That’s why, can only say, he was unlucky, encountering He s.h.i.+ Hai, this ‘lunatic’.
He s.h.i.+ Hai’s fourth bodyguard slowly arrived late, seeing the heated scene. Speaking of which, he was a very rational person. Having such a young master like He s.h.i.+ Hai, if there isn’t a rational person to control the situation, don’t know what it will turn into. If this continues, perhaps it wouldn’t go as far as to result in someone’s death, but the other party still held an esteemed status after all, and their family’s young master, although was the son of a general, inherently he was still just a commoner. Having such a wide gap in status, regardless of who was right or wrong, in the end, their family’s young master will surely suffer. That’s why, they needed to have someone subdue the situation on their side and protect young master.
Jin Qinw.a.n.g was the best candidate, no further thoughts needed. That’s why, ignoring the situation here, he just immediately took off, off to look for Jin Qinw.a.n.g for help!
