Who put the yellow robe on me?
Chapter 243 Death-Free Gold Medal
His voice was loud and resonant, echoing in the dilapidated temple with unquestionable majesty.
Jiang Chen's heart was shocked and his brows furrowed slightly.
He took a step forward and said in a clear voice, "Guard Yin is so arrogant! You can't even see the people in this dilapidated temple, and you want to tie them up?"
Yin Yufeng turned his head and his eyes fell on Jiang Chen.
He looked at him carefully, a trace of contempt flashing in his eyes: "Hey, this guy looks unfamiliar, could he be the fake Sixteenth Prince? Come on, tie up this fake Sixteenth Prince as well!"
Jiang Chen's anger rose in his heart, but he remained calm on the surface.
He didn't expect Yin Yufeng to be so arrogant. Not only did he not greet him, but he also spoke wildly.
Seeing this, Dianzhang couldn't help but say, "Yin Yufeng, recognize it! This is none other than the Sixteenth Prince!"
Yin Yufeng sneered and squinted at Dianzhang: "Hmph, Dianzhang, you are just a small guard, what qualifications do you have to be so presumptuous in front of me?"
Deng Yunde couldn't help it anymore and stood up and said, "Guard Yin, please be respectful!"
Yin Yufeng snorted disdainfully, "Respect? What are you all doing here? Aren't you colluding with the rebels in the Western Regions and plotting rebellion?"
Jiang Sirou took a step forward, her eyes icy, "Yin Yufeng, you're so bold! Don't you even take this princess seriously?"
Yin Yufeng then noticed Jiang Sirou, his expression changed slightly, but he quickly regained his arrogant look: "The Thirteenth Princess?
Humph, why would Her Royal Highness be hanging out with these people? Could it be that she also has rebellious intentions?"
Jiang Sirou was so angry that her face turned pale and she pointed at Yin Yufeng: "You——"
Jiang Chen stretched out his hand to stop her and said softly, "Thirteenth sister, don't bother with him."
He turned around and looked directly at Yin Yufeng, a sharp glint in his eyes: "Guard Yin, I have returned to the capital from the Western Regions under the Emperor's order, yet you are making random accusations here? What's the reason?"
Yin Yufeng sneered, "Imperial order? What proof do you have? There's someone pretending to be the prince in the capital, causing chaos everywhere. I've been ordered to arrest him. If you're really the Sixteenth Prince, produce the evidence!"
Jiang Chen thought to himself that something was wrong. After returning from the Western Regions, he was very careful.
But this Yin Yufeng kept making random accusations and didn't take himself and Thirteenth Sister seriously at all. Moreover, it seemed that someone was deliberately making trouble behind the scenes and wanted to take the opportunity to get rid of him.
Seeing this, Dianzhang stepped forward and said, "Yin Yufeng, how dare you question His Highness's status! You are committing insubordination!"
Yin Yufeng waved his hand impatiently: "Stop talking nonsense! Come on, tie him up!"
The imperial guards obeyed the order and stepped forward, weapons in hand, approaching step by step.
The atmosphere in the temple suddenly became tense, and the air seemed to be filled with the smell of gunpowder.
Everyone stood back to back, looking warily at the surrounding imperial guards.
Xuanyuan Feiyan clenched the sword in her hand and whispered, "Your Highness, what should we do?"
Jiang Chen took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down. He knew that he had to stay calm at this moment, otherwise it would only make the situation worse.
Inside the dilapidated temple, the atmosphere was as tense as a taut string that could break at any time.
Jiang Chen stared coldly at Yin Yufeng, a flash of anger and contempt in his eyes. His voice was low and powerful, and it was particularly clear in the silent air: "Yin Yufeng, you have framed the prince. You are committing a capital crime."
Yin Yufeng was not moved at all. A sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth, and his eyes were full of disdain and provocation.
His hands tightly gripped the sword at his waist, his knuckles turning slightly white from the strain. He glanced around and said, "Death penalty? Haha, what a joke! You, a fake prince, dare to speak so brazenly in front of me?"
Jiang Chen's heart sank as he thought to himself, "It seems this person has been prepared for this. There must be someone behind this."
He tried to calm himself down, took a deep breath, and continued, "Yin Yufeng, how dare you be so arrogant? Aren't you afraid of the punishment of killing all your clans?"
Yin Yufeng raised his eyebrows and said casually, "Exterminate the entire clan? That depends on whether you have the ability to do so."
He turned around and shouted to the imperial guards behind him: "Brothers, go! Capture these impostors, don't leave any alive!"
Upon hearing the order, the imperial guards tightened their weapons and advanced towards Jiang Chen and the others. The air was filled with tension, and even breathing became heavy.
At this critical moment, Dianzhang stepped forward and shouted, "Brothers of the Imperial Guards, this is the Sixteenth Prince and Thirteenth Princess of the current dynasty. Are you planning a rebellion?"
His voice was resonant and carried an irresistible majesty. Some of the imperial guards recognized the rules, exchanged glances, and hesitated.
A young imperial guard whispered to his companion beside him, "He is Dianzhang, a former imperial guard. Could he really be the prince and princess?"
Another guard frowned and said hesitantly, "If this is true, we'll be in big trouble."
Seeing this, Yin Yufeng's face darkened and he shouted sternly, "Everyone, attack! These are all thieves from the Western Regions, pretending to be princes and princesses with evil intentions. Kill them all!"
The imperial guards wavered again, many of them trembling slightly as they gripped their weapons. They were soldiers, and they naturally understood the consequences of disobeying military orders, but at the same time, they were unwilling to bear the charge of plotting against the imperial family.
Jiang Chen looked at the situation in front of him, feeling anxious. He knew that he had to find a way to stabilize the situation.
He snorted coldly, staring at Yin Yufeng with a sharp gaze: "Yin Yufeng, you are so bold! Murdering the current prince and princess is a crime punishable by the death of nine generations of your clan. Are you sure that the people behind you can protect you?"
A barely perceptible panic flashed across Yin Yufeng's eyes, but he quickly concealed it.
He sneered, "Humph, this is my own business. How could it be your turn to point fingers at me, a fake?"
Seeing that he was still stubborn, Jiang Chen became more alert.
He turned to the imperial guards and said in a loud and firm voice, "Commendants, you are also the elite of the imperial court, and you have parents, wives, and children behind you. Do you really want to murder the prince and princess for the selfish interests of a few people, risking the execution of your entire clan?"
The Imperial Guards looked at each other, their hearts wavering. An elderly Imperial Guard captain stepped forward, clasped his fists, and said, "Sir, if you are truly the Sixteenth Prince, please produce your token to prove your innocence."
Jiang Chen frowned slightly. He was in a hurry on this trip and did not bring any royal token with him.
He was about to explain, but Yin Yufeng got there first and shouted, "Don't listen to his nonsense! If he were a real prince, how could he not have a token? He's all a liar!"
Just as everyone was hesitating, Yin Yufeng once again ordered the imperial guards: "Go! Kill them and achieve great merit!"
The guards raised their weapons once more, but their movements were noticeably slower. Clearly, doubts had begun to creep into their hearts.
Seeing this, Jiang Sirou pulled out a glittering golden medal of immunity from death from her bosom, raised it above her head, and said in a clear and powerful voice: "All soldiers, listen to my orders! Seeing the golden medal of immunity from death is like seeing His Majesty in person. Why don't you retreat immediately!"
