Chapter 202 Little Stone the Royal Guard

However, no matter how fast he moved, he couldn't outpace Shadow One's reaction.

As if he had eyes in the back of his head, Yingyi turned around like lightning the instant the soldier made his move and grabbed the soldier's wrist.

With a slight exertion, two crisp "crack" sounds were heard, and the soldier's arms went limp, the dagger clattering to the ground.

"Ah...ah..."

He screamed in agony and rolled on the ground.

Gu Junze slowly turned around and looked at Lieutenant General Li: "Lieutenant General Li, you really don't learn your lesson."

Lieutenant Li felt a chill run down his spine under that gaze, but he still refused to back down: "Gu Junze, don't go too far. This is a military camp, not a place where you can run wild!"

Gu Junze sneered: "I'm going too far? Lieutenant General Li, you've provoked me time and time again, and even secretly instructed your men to launch a sneak attack. What does that count for?"

As he spoke, he looked at the soldiers of the Eastern Camp.

“You are all fine men of the army. I'm sure you've all seen through this farce today. Lieutenant General Li usually acts arrogantly and domineeringly in the army because of his connections. How can such a person lead you to defend your country?”

The soldiers looked at each other, but none of them dared to utter a sound.

What are you all doing gathered here?

A rough voice suddenly came from behind the crowd.

Hearing the sound, everyone turned to look and saw a burly man with a full beard striding towards them.

But when the man saw Ying Yi behind Gu Junze, he suddenly stopped in his tracks, his lips trembling slightly, and murmured, "Lord Ying Yi?"

Although the voice was soft, Gu Junze heard it clearly.

He couldn't help but frown slightly. Did this person know Yingyi?

When Lieutenant General Li saw Lieutenant General Shi appear, he was as if he had seen a savior and ran forward to greet him.

As he ran, he shouted, "Deputy General Shi, you're finally back! You must stand up for me! Look at the injuries on my face, they beat me up like this. You have to avenge me!"

As she spoke, she glared fiercely at Gu Junze, her eyes filled with such resentment that she seemed ready to bite him.

Gu Junze cupped his hands in greeting and said, "I am Gu Junze, and I greet Vice General Shi."

Deputy General Shi sized up Gu Junze. "The heir of the Marquis of Anyang's mansion? Your first report has already caused such a huge mess?"

Gu Junze said, "It is Vice General Li who wants to test my skills."

"Then what about the injury on his face?" Deputy General Shi asked sharply.

Gu Junze remained unfazed. "I won by a narrow margin. Vice General Li has taken a fancy to sparring with his soldiers as well..."

Shi Yan knew perfectly well what was going on. With Lieutenant General Li's mediocre skills, how could he not understand them?

He usually relied on his relationship with General Feng to act arrogantly and domineeringly in the military camp, just waiting to die.

In terms of real skill, they are far from being good enough.

Seeing that he had found a powerful backer, Lieutenant Li became arrogant again and cursed, "Bullshit!"

Shi Yan frowned slightly upon seeing Ying Yi, coughed lightly, and suddenly raised his voice, "Shut up!"

Who is his mother?

How could such a despicable person as Princess Anyang be able to slander and insult her?

Without the eldest princess, the Great Jin Dynasty would have perished long ago...

If this gets into the ears of the royal family, even General Feng might not be able to protect him.

"Now that the competition is over, everyone can disperse!"

Shi Yan didn't want to escalate the situation further and just wanted to quell the storm as quickly as possible, so he waved his hand, signaling everyone to disperse.

Lieutenant Li, however, persisted, jumping up and down and shouting, "Shi Yan, what do you mean? I've been beaten up like this..."

"Believe it or not, I'll get my brother-in-law to fire you."

"Fine!" Shi Yan's face instantly turned cold as he glared fiercely at Li Fujun. "Then wait until the general returns, and you can go and complain."

The chill in Shi Yan's eyes sent a shiver down Li's spine. He realized that Shi Yan was truly angry this time.

"you……"

Lieutenant General Li wanted to say something more, but was interrupted by Shi Yan.

"Men, take Gu Junze to his tent," Shi Yan ordered his men.

"Yes."

Shi Yan's subordinate immediately responded, then respectfully said to Gu Junze, "Centurion, please..."

Gu Junze bowed and took his leave, following the soldiers away. He already had a plan in mind; it seemed the Eastern Camp wasn't truly united…

Once inside the tent, Shi Yan's men bowed respectfully before turning to leave, casually lowering the tent flap to shut out the outside noise.

Gu Junze looked at Yingyi and asked, "Yingyi, do you know that Deputy General Shi?"

Ying Yi nodded slightly. Although the deputy general in front of him was very different from the naive young man in his memory, he still recognized him at a glance.

He spoke slowly in a low voice, "He was also a member of the guards. Back then, he was young, and everyone called him Little Stone."

“I once taught him a few moves. I never expected that after so many years, he would become the deputy general of this Eastern Camp.”

Gu Junze nodded slightly, "Yes, find an opportunity to try to get in touch with him."

A ruthless glint flashed in Ying's eyes. If Little Stone was really related to the death of the Princess, he would definitely kill him with his own hands.

"Yes. I will definitely find a suitable opportunity to sound him out and also see what his current stance is."

Gu Junze knew that the Shadow Guard and his mother were not only master and servant, but also shared a bond forged in the crucible of life and death on the battlefield.

He also understood Yingyi's obsession; wasn't he the same?

"Be careful in everything you do, and don't alert the enemy..."

On the other hand, Chu Ruohan did not take the person directly back to the Marquis's residence, but instead took them to the Chu family for accommodation.

Zhi Qiu is already in such a terrible state, we must protect her. If we leave her under the nose of Marquis Anyang, he will inevitably find an opportunity to make a move.

"Yingqing, go and bring Doctor Qian here."

"Yes."

Chu Ruohan then ordered someone to quickly boil water, preparing to give Zhi Qiu a proper bath.

Fortunately, although Zhi Qiu was insane, she was very quiet, didn't make a fuss, and obediently let the maid do as she pleased.

As the clothes were removed from Zhi Qiu's body piece by piece, Chu Ruohan couldn't help but gasp.

The numerous, densely packed wounds were a shocking sight...

After washing it three times, the dirt on Zhi Qiu's body was finally completely cleaned.

As soon as they finished their work, Yingqing led Doctor Qian and jumped off the roof.

As soon as Dr. Qian landed, he leaned against a pillar and began vomiting violently, his face as pale as paper.

"You... ugh... you could at least prepare a horse for me in the future, ugh..."

Hearing the commotion, Chu Ruohan came out. "What's wrong, Dr. Qian?"

Ying Qing explained helplessly, "It's acrophobia. I used my light-footed skills to bring Doctor Qian here in time, but I didn't expect..."

Chu Ruohan quickly had someone bring her a cup of hot tea, and then Doctor Qian drank a few sips.

After he came to his senses, he said, "Dr. Qian, the reason I called you here in such a hurry is that I wanted you to take a look at someone."
