Martial Arts Crossover: Starting as a member of the Imperial Guard, all the ladies are demons

At this stage, Jiang Yuyan was still a fledgling and needed further training.

Xiao Jingyi wanted to train her to work for him.

Otherwise, he really wouldn't have brought a woman back to his residence so casually.

Of course, he wouldn't say these things casually.

"Ok?"

But he soon realized something was wrong, because only Dian Wei was with him. When he turned around, he saw Jiang Yuyan still standing there blankly.

He couldn't help but tease, "What, you regretted it after I agreed?"

"what!"

Upon hearing his words, Jiang Yuyan snapped out of her daze and followed him at a trot.

"My benefactor, Yu Yan was just too happy and lost her composure for a moment. Please forgive her."

"Follow closely."

Seeing her follow, Xiao Jingyi gave her a word of advice and then led Dian Wei and Jiang Yuyan toward the Prince's Mansion.

Jiang Yuyan, who was following behind him, was in a state of utter confusion.

Her mind was still replaying Xiao Jingyi's words. She wiped her forehead with her hand, on the spot where Xiao Jingyi had touched her earlier.

..

Meanwhile, those who had been lurking in the shadows saw Xiao Jingyi return home and quickly relayed the news back to him.

Yuwangfu.

"Oh? My eighth brother actually saved a peasant woman in the street today?"

"And you even brought her back to the manor?"

Xiao Jinghuan looked at the message in his hand, a strange smile on his face.

The guards also felt strange, but dared not ask.

Seeing that he had lost his composure, Xiao Jinghuan quickly dismissed him, saying, "You may leave now. I'd like to have some peace and quiet by myself."

"Yes."

The guards bowed and withdrew, leaving Xiao Jinghuan alone in the study.

He finally couldn't help but burst into laughter: "Hahaha, you've brought a peasant girl home, Eighth Brother, you really are indiscriminate when it comes to food."

"If you're short of women, I can send them to you. How could you choose such a despicable woman? I don't approve of your taste this time."

Xiao Jinghuan's face showed a mocking expression, and he also looked down on Xiao Jingyi.

He seemed to wonder if he was being too cautious.

Xiao Jingyi used to be exceptionally talented, but now he's ruined.

Not only him, but even the Crown Prince, Xiao Jingxuan, burst into laughter upon hearing the news.

They even went so far as to claim that Xiao Jingyi was useless and a womanizer.

I want all kinds of women.

At the same time, he had the same thought as Xiao Jinghuan: Xiao Jingyi no longer posed any threat.

The reason they are paying so much attention to today is because of the woman Xiao Jingyi brought back.

This was because every six months, Xiao Jingyi would bring a woman back to his residence without fail.

This has been the case every six months, rain or shine for years.

Today marks the six-month mark, and it is also the day Xiao Jingyi is to take a concubine.

You should know that they originally planned to send one of their own women in, to be placed next to Xiao Jingyi.

As a result, Xiao Jingyi's death turned out to be a huge joke.

And it wasn't just them; many people in the court who wanted to sell their daughters for personal gain also planned to offer them up today.

But Xiao Jingyi made his own choice.

For a time, many people lamented that Xiao Jingyi had poor taste, even in choosing women so hastily.

The Imperial Palace of the Great Liang Dynasty.

"Hmph! This Jing Yi, it's one thing for him to find women, but how could he bring such a woman back to the mansion today?"

"He is a prince, a prince! How can he lower himself like this?"

"What kind of behavior is this!"

Looking at the information about Xiao Jingyi, Emperor Liang felt it was utterly absurd, and his face turned extremely ugly.

Xiao Jingyi's actions not only tarnished his own reputation but also that of the royal family.

"No, when he comes to the palace next time, I must have a good talk with him. I can tolerate his liking for women, but he can't be so indiscriminate."

"Do you know what people say about him now? They say he's indiscriminate in his lust, a womanizer, and a philanderer!"

Seeing that Emperor Liang was getting angrier, Gao Zhan took the tea that the eunuch was holding and respectfully served it to him.

"Your Majesty, please calm down. Prince Yi has always been like this. Why should you get angry? It's not worth ruining your health."

"I... sigh!"

Emperor Liang wanted to say something more, but in the end he didn't say it. He simply picked up the teacup and drank it all in one gulp.

"I've been scolding him for so long, my mouth is dry."

"Gao Zhan, isn't it time for Princess Nihuang to hold her martial arts contest to choose a husband in a few days?"

As if he had thought of something, Emperor Liang asked with a stern face.

"Yes, Your Majesty, in three days."

"Then summon Jingyi to the palace as well. This time, no matter what, even if we have to tie him up, we have to bring him here. We really need to give him a good scolding!"

"Yes, Your Majesty."

022 The women of the Prince's Mansion have taken action! (Seeking flowers, ratings, and monthly tickets)

"Yes, the old slave knows."

Seeing that his emperor was determined to send Xiao Jingyi to the palace to be scolded, Gao Zhan said nothing more.

"Hmm, what are the various countries saying about Princess Nihuang's marriage proposal now?"

At this moment, Emperor Liang remembered the important matter at hand, suppressed his anger, and asked Gao Zhan a question.

Gao Zhan chuckled and said, "Your Majesty, didn't you say before that, apart from Southern Chu, other countries and large territories have responded one after another?"

"Oh?"

Emperor Liang was taken aback: "Did I say that?"

Then, belatedly, he realized and said, "I did say that I've been driven crazy by that kid Jingyi."

He glanced at the memorials and official letters on the table, picked one up, and said, "Including the letter from the Northern Yan Kingdom that was delivered today, all the surrounding countries have expressed their intention to propose marriage to Princess Nihuang."

"hehe."

"I didn't expect that Southern Chu was so afraid of being beaten. Over the years, Princess Nihuang has been in charge of the 100,000 iron cavalry of the Yunwang Mansion, and has been a powerful force in Southern Chu for nearly 10 years. Even if they had a hundred times the courage, they wouldn't dare to come to the capital."

At this point, Emperor Liang couldn't help but laugh out loud, and Gao Zhan beside him echoed with a smile, "That's right, the princess is not only a first-rank military marquis personally conferred by Your Majesty."

"Her name is even on the Langya Masters List. With such character and integrity, who is worthy of her?"

"That means Your Majesty will need to take care of the princess."

Upon hearing these words, Emperor Liang's expression was inscrutable, and his eyes held a fascinating look.

With a soft hum, she said, "It's time to pay more attention. Over the years, she has been in charge of the Southern Territory and has a great reputation. The army is loyal to her. I'm afraid this will happen in the long run."

“These people probably only know King Mu, but not King Liang. Now that the border is peaceful and Mu Qing has come of age, it’s time for her to rest.”

Upon hearing this, Gao Zhan's expression remained unchanged, but his heart sank.

This is the second time Emperor Liang has said this.

This shows that he is already very wary of Nihuang. If he fails to achieve his goal this time, Nihuang will not be able to leave the capital.

Seeing this, Gao Zhan said nothing more and just stood quietly beside Emperor Liang, waiting for him to handle state affairs.

..

The next day.

The backyard of Prince Yi's residence.

At this moment, a group of stunningly beautiful women sat solemnly in their respective seats, with Yaoyue and Yanfei at the head of the group.

Normally, they would have been playing mahjong together by now.

But they had no interest at all today.

"Hmph! These people are really bold, daring to slander Xiao Lang like this, saying that he is indiscriminate in his hunger. I'll go and cut out their tongues right now."

"There are even people from the Ministry of Rites who want to impeach my husband!"

Yaoyue stood up angrily. She had only learned about what Xiao Jingyi had done yesterday this morning.

But she wasn't happy about it.

The ones who were unhappy were not Xiao Jingyi bringing women back; after all, it was a six-month period, and they understood.

Xiao Jingyi's displeasure stemmed from the fact that outsiders looked down on him, gossiped about him, and laughed at him.

“Sister Yue’er, you’ve been married to your husband for so long, how come you still haven’t changed your irritable temper?”

Hearing Yaoyue's words, Yanfei frowned slightly and said slowly, "I know you had some martial arts skills before you entered the manor, but now you are your husband's woman, so you should restrain your temper from the martial arts world."

"That's right, that's right. Sister Yue'er is so short-tempered. She cuts out people's tongues at the slightest disagreement. If word gets out, it won't be good."

On the other side, Wanwan nodded, but after noticing the look from Yaoyue, she immediately shut her mouth and obediently ate the snacks on the table.

Silently repeating in my heart, "You can't see me, you can't see me."

Sister Yue'er's eyes are even more terrifying than Master's.

Can't be bothered, can't be bothered.

Seeing that she was honest, Yaoyue then looked at Yanfei and said, "Sister Feiyan, I am not reconciled to the great humiliation my husband has suffered."

These people deserve to be punished!

Upon hearing this, Yanfei shook her head: "I know my sister's heart. My husband has been humiliated, and how could I not be angry? But how can you show up like this so openly? What about my husband?"

"Wouldn't that make people look down on our royal family even more?"

Hearing that it would affect Xiao Jingyi, Yaoyue forcibly suppressed her anger, sat back down, and looked at Yanfei: "Then, Sister Feiyan, what do you suggest we do?"

Seeing this, even Su Wanwan, Xu Weixiong who had been silent, and the beautiful woman in red sitting on a roof beam all turned their gazes toward Yan Fei.

“We can’t get involved in this ourselves, but we can hire someone to kill them. Here’s what we’ll do: I’ll offer a thousand taels of gold to find a powerful figure in the underworld to kill the entire families of those officials.”

???

!!!

Depend on!?

That's ruthless!

The women were all startled upon hearing this.

Yaoyue, who thought she was ruthless enough, discovered that Yanfei was an even more ruthless person.

They'll wipe out your whole family if you disagree with them!

Then, thinking about how she used to cut off her tongue at the slightest disagreement, she suddenly felt incredibly weak.

No, next time I'll definitely say something even harsher.

Having made up her mind, Yaoyue nodded and said, "Alright, I'll also offer a thousand taels of gold to kill the entire families of those who gossip the most."

"Hey, hey, hey, you guys are going a bit too far by killing the whole family right off the bat."
