Adhere to the gentleman's principles

Chapter 13 It’s embarrassing

"Your Highness, the princess is back!" The attendant reported. Zhao Nian said, "Good to know!" Zhao Junning ran over and said, "My son greets his father!"

Zhao Junning bowed as usual, Zhao Nian nodded and said, "Okay!" But he didn't put down the memorial. Meng Xiangning came over with tea and said, "Ning'er is back!"

Zhao Junning smiled and said, "Yes, mother!" At this time, eunuch He Chengmeng came with the imperial edict: "The imperial edict has arrived!"

The three knelt down to listen to the decree: "The Emperor of Heaven and Order decrees that His Highness Prince of Nanyang, Zhao Junhao, is young and promising, and has made many military achievements, which is the honor of our Great Bian. The grandson of Prime Minister Wang Luozhong and the Prince of Nanyang are a match made in heaven, so I order Wang Luozhong's grandson Wang Xuan to marry His Highness Prince of Nanyang. From now on, the couple will live in harmony and help each other. They can get married on the auspicious fifteenth day of next month! This is the decree. Your Highness the Crown Prince, please accept the decree. His Highness Prince of Nanyang has already known the decree."

Zhao Junning was shocked as she watched Zhao Nian take the imperial edict and stood up to ask, "Who asked for this marriage decree, Eunuch He? Jun Hao and Wang Xuan are getting married? Doesn't the Emperor know that Jun Hao and Ye Shangshu's daughter Ye Jin'an like each other?"

Zhao Nian shouted, "Jun Ning!" He Chengmeng bowed his head and said, "This is the emperor's order and we are just delivering it. Since the emperor has received the order, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince needs to prepare for the wedding earlier. I will take my leave."

He Chengmeng turned around and ran away with his skirt in his hand, fearing that Zhao Junning would get angry and hit him. Zhao Junning asked in confusion: "Father, how could you agree? What is this Wang Xuan? Wang Luozhong clearly wants to extend his hand, father..."

Zhao Nian raised his hand and said, "What else can we do now that our father has issued an imperial decree? Do you think our father wants to agree to this marriage? The Wang family has military power now and our father has no choice but to do so!" After saying this, Zhao Nian took the imperial decree and shook his head as he walked into the house. Zhao Junning looked at Meng Xiangning, who comforted him, "This is the only way now!"

“Hahahahaha, now we have another way.” Wang Luozhong looked at the imperial edict and smiled. Wang Xuan also smiled and said, “Thank you, Grandfather.” Wang Luozhong said, “My dear granddaughter, assist your husband well in the future.”

In the Guangping Marquis's mansion, Li Ziyan was in his room. Mo Yu said, "General!" Li Ziyan asked, "What's wrong?" Mo Yu said, "An imperial decree came from the palace ordering Wang Xuan to marry His Royal Highness the Prince of Nanyang."

Li Ziyan sneered after hearing this: "Wang Luozhong has finally reached out to the Crown Prince's Mansion! What about the princess?" Mo Yu said: "Princess Feng Ling was furious. After hearing the imperial decree, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and the Crown Princess failed to stop it, and she has already gone to the palace to beg the emperor!"

Li Ziyan sighed deeply: "It is unintentional for her to go to the palace rashly like this. Wang Luozhong holds most of the power in the court now. She may not succeed even if she goes to the palace."

At 3 p.m., Zhao Junning was walking on the streets of the imperial city, pounding his head! Li Ziyan, who came to look for Zhao Junning, saw Zhao Junning, who looked listless, and asked, "Did His Majesty agree to your request?"

Zhao Junning looked up and shook her head. Li Ziyan followed behind Zhao Junning! As night fell, the two stood on a bridge for a long time. Zhao Junning turned and looked at Li Ziyan: "You have been with me for so long, don't worry, I am fine!"

Li Ziyan approached Zhao Junning and said cautiously: "Princess..." Zhao Junning hugged Li Ziyan and said: "Why is the world like this? I used to think that in the martial arts world, favors are favors and hatred is hatred! Now I understand that I can be free in the martial arts world, but this makes me feel uncomfortable. I can't do everything by myself and I have to think about the consequences of everything."

Li Ziyan also embraced Zhao Junning, and when he heard Zhao Junning's voice choking with sobs, he said, "Cry, cry it out!" Zhao Junning continued, "Do you know what my royal grandfather told me? He said that I am a princess and a member of the royal family, and we should be the first to get married! And today I met Wang Luozhong and he told me that you are a princess and this is your fate."

When Li Ziyan was about to comfort her, Zhao Junning stood up, wiped her tears and said, "But why should I care about what Wang Luozhong said? I don't believe in fate!" After that, she took Li Ziyan to the street market. When Li Ziyan stopped, he asked, "What happened to the princess who was crying just now?"

Zhao Junning smiled and said, "Just now was just now. This princess can cry and take it back." Then she said, "Will you accompany me for a drink?" Li Ziyan nodded.

Before they knew it, it was already midnight, and Zhao Junning was drunk and unconscious! She looked at Li Ziyan for a long time and said, "You are so beautiful..."

She fell asleep before she could finish her words. Li Ziyan shook his head and sighed, saying, "Your alcohol tolerance is so poor. If you tell others who don't know you, no one will know that you are the Qingshuang female hero in the martial arts world."

After saying that, he stood up and walked towards Zhao Junning, gently put his arm around her waist and carried her away from the restaurant. This light-hearted girl was sleeping soundly on his back. Mo Yu, who came to look for Li Ziyan, saw Li Ziyan sending the drunk Zhao Junning home again, and asked, "Sir, is the princess drunk again?"

Then he said, "This princess really has such a low alcohol tolerance that I don't believe she is the Qingshuang female hero in the martial arts world!" Li Ziyan glanced at Mo Yu and said, "It's nothing for a woman to have a low alcohol tolerance!"

When they arrived at the Prince's Mansion, Fuling, who was waiting at the door, saw that it was Zhao Junning on Li Ziyan's back, and ran forward to ask: "General Li, what happened to my princess?" Li Ziyan said in a gentle tone: "Nothing, she is just drunk. Since you are there, I..." Fuling said quickly: "Hey, General Li, my princess is drunk, I can't do it alone! You should take her in yourself!"

Meng Xiangning and Zhao Nian happened to see this scene. Meng Xiangning showed an expression of seeing gossip again. She patted Zhao Nian beside her and said, "I think our Ning'er and Li Ziyan are a good match, right?" Zhao Nian snorted coldly, "How can my daughter be..." Meng Xiangning interrupted, "How can he, the son of a marquis, be a good match? You are so silly, I think Li Ziyan is quite good!"

The next day, Zhao Junning woke up, opened her eyes, rubbed her head to relax, and suddenly sat up. Fuling saw that Zhao Junning had woken up and asked: "Princess, are you awake? Does your head still hurt?"

Zhao Junning sighed, "I was drunk again last night. Li Ziyan carried me back home?" Fuling nodded, and Zhao Junning said, "I didn't do anything out of the ordinary last night, did I?" Zhao Junning thought about it carefully, "I don't think so! I just praised him for his good looks and then fell asleep! Fuling, I didn't say anything weird, did I?"

Fuling asked cautiously: "Princess, do you still remember what happened last night?" Zhao Junning sighed: "I'm just drunk, not brain damaged! It seems that I didn't do anything strange last night." Fuling thought for a long time: "Actually, although Princess, you didn't do anything strange last night, but..."

Zhao Junning covered her mouth and stared: "I won't kiss him, will I?" Fuling nodded obediently. Zhao Junning asked again: "Is there anything else?" Fuling thought for a while and said: "Except for a kiss, that's all!"

Zhao Junning covered her face and said, "It's so embarrassing. I got drunk twice in front of Li Ziyan. He will spread the news that I can't drink much, and then I will have a weakness in the world!" Fuling took a deep breath: "Princess..." Zhao Junning sat up: "Forget it, I'm hungry. I'm afraid my father and mother are waiting for me to have dinner." She changed her clothes.

At noon, Zhao Junning came to Baicao Medical Clinic. Uncle Chen greeted Zhao Junning and said, "My princess, you are here!" Zhao Junning supported Uncle Chen and said, "Uncle Chen, I told you that I don't need these empty formalities."

Ah Shuo also came over: "Senior sister, you are here!" Zhao Junning touched Ah Shuo's head and said: "Yes! Have you made any progress in studying medicine with Uncle Chen recently?" Ah Shuo nodded and said: "Of course!"

At this time Yuan Xinghui ran over breathlessly and said, "Uncle Chen, Uncle Chen...Jun Ning! It's great that you are here! Hurry...hurry, Lu Ming is injured." Zhao Jun Ning frowned after hearing this, "What happened?" Just then, the servant carried Lu Ming into the clinic. Zhao Jun Ning saw that Jiang Lu Ming's arms and legs were covered in blood, his face was pale, and there were bloodstains on his shoulders and mouth.

Zhao Junning said, "Hurry up and put him on the bed in the back room!" After putting him down, Zhao Junning asked Uncle Chen to give him acupuncture, but it seemed to be ineffective. Zhao Junning stepped forward and said, "I'll do it. Lu Ming is probably injured. Shuo'er, Uncle Chen, go get the golden wound medicine to apply on Lu Ming. Fuling, bring water and towels to wipe the blood off first." In the trauma treatment room, Zhao Junning asked Yuan Xinghui, "Xinghui, how did Lu Ming get injured? Where did you meet him?"

Yuan Xinghui said, "Zhuoyuan and I heard that you were back and wanted to go to the Prince's Mansion to look for you. On the way there, we found that there was a lot of noise in the street market, so we went to check it out. We found Luming lying at the gate of the imperial city, and there were a few people not far away looking at us. We thought it must be the murderer who hurt Luming, so we wanted to chase him together, but Zhuoyuan said that Luming was seriously injured and asked me to take him to treat him while he went to chase him."

Zhao Junning was furious after hearing this: "What? Lu Ming's kung fu is better than Brother Zhuo Yuan's. Even Lu Ming is no match for him. How can Brother Zhuo Yuan deal with him? It's simply reckless. Let me treat Lu Ming first and then go find Brother Zhuo Yuan." Yuan Xinghui said: "Don't worry, I asked Zhuo Yuan to leave a mark." Zhao Junning nodded: "Yes."

After the external injuries were treated, Zhao Junning stepped forward to give him acupuncture. After inserting the silver needle into Jiang Luming's Baihui and other important acupoints, he just touched the abdomen: "One of the ribs is broken! And he's poisoned!"

What kind of palm power could break Lu Ming's ribs but make them look as if they were not broken? Yuan Xinghui heard that his ribs were broken and said, "What? Broken ribs? How come he is also poisoned?"

Zhao Junning said, "Okay, don't worry. I've already given you the acupuncture. Now I'll inject my inner strength into Luming to force out the poison." After that, the others helped Jiang Luming up. Zhao Junning injected his inner strength into him and he spat out a mouthful of black blood. He withdrew his hand and said, "Okay, the poison has been forced out. Uncle Chen will remove the silver needle in a quarter of an hour and give Luming some water. I'm going to find Brother Zhuo Yuan."

After saying this, Zhao Junning walked out of the clinic and hurried out of the city. Li Ziyan, who saw Zhao Junning not far away, followed him and followed the mark all the way to the forest. Zhao Junning said, "Come out, lead me here."

Before Zhao Junning showed up, the silver needle flew to the left and a person fell down. At this time, someone attacked from behind and was killed by Li Ziyan with a palm. Zhao Junning looked at Li Ziyan: "Why are you here? Are you following me again?"

Then he walked forward and said, "Do you want to come out by yourself or do you want me to drag you out?" No one answered, so Zhao Junning jumped up and pulled down the person on top of him with a white silk, and then used his palm power to knock down the people on both sides. The rest of the people were also forced out. Zhao Junning looked at them and asked, "Where is Qin Zhuoyuan?"

The leader said disdainfully, "Killed him. He didn't know what was good for him and chased after us, so we killed him. We chopped up his body and threw it away." Zhao Junning clenched his fists and said, "Where is the person?" Li Ziyan stepped forward and said, "You'd better tell me quickly. If this woman gets angry, you won't survive."
