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

“It really is, even more real than pearls!” Xu Weixiong assured him repeatedly.

"Cough cough, you should have said so earlier."

Seeing this, Yan Lingji's smile grew even brighter: "But you said it yourself, sister."

“I said it.” Xu Weixiong nodded immediately.

At this critical moment, with all the sisters present, if she were to be reported, her fate would be dire. Therefore, the only option is to silence Yan Lingji for now and confess later.

What the two women didn't know was that their secret conversation had been overheard by everyone.

Everyone here is quite capable; they all have a good ear.

Aside from Jiang Yuyan, who had no martial arts skills, everyone else's faces darkened.

Well, the deal is being made right in front of me?

Don't you know where I used to hang out?

Yan Fei sighed, rubbing her forehead, "These two idiots, don't they know how to talk about this outside?"

At this moment, the two had reached an agreement and looked at their sisters with smiles on their faces. Yan Lingji even said with a smile, "No...it's nothing, I was just joking."

"Please don't mind, ladies."

"Clang!" "Bang!" "Whoosh!"

But as soon as she finished speaking, she saw that Lian Ni Chang and the others had already stood up. Some people smashed their zithers on the ground, some pulled out long swords from somewhere, and some were playing with a small knife in their hands.

Yanran gave off an attitude that said, "If you don't confess, don't blame me for being impolite."

"Sisters... what are you doing? We agreed not to use knives or guns..."

Seeing this, Yan Lingji felt a chill run down her spine, and her smile became somewhat forced.

Xu Weixiong sensed something was wrong. His eyes darted around, and he quietly retreated, praying he hadn't been discovered.

But things didn't go as planned. Huang Xuemei immediately stopped her: "Little Xiong, don't rush off. Tell your older sister what happened."

Xu Weixiong immediately felt several eyes on her, and she broke out in a cold sweat, her face turning extremely unnatural.

Oh no, oh no, I'm doomed.

No, I can't bear their energy all by myself.

Oh right, right, Sister Feiyan, don't blame me.

Then, pointing to Yan Fei, he said, "Sister Fei Yan knows!"

???

When Yan Fei saw that Xu Weixiong had betrayed her, and seeing the gazes of everyone around her, she had no choice but to step forward, even if it was against her will.

"My dear sisters, here's what happened..."

.....

On that day, the backyard of the Prince's Mansion was extremely quiet, and not even a single servant was allowed to enter.

All that is known is that Xu Weixiong and Yan Fei signed many unfair agreements afterward, and only then did the harem regain its popularity.

Meanwhile, at a recruitment ground outside the city.

Gao Shun looked at the message sent by Xiao Jingyi's men, glanced around, then crushed the note and threw it into the brazier not far away.

Then he went to the recruitment area and saw people registering, so he immediately stopped them.

"Wait, let me take a look."

As he spoke, Gao Shun picked up the man's file, glanced at it, and immediately shook his head: "I'm sorry, your conditions do not meet the requirements for the time being. Please leave."

"what?"

Upon hearing this, the person who had signed up was overjoyed just a moment ago, after all, joining the army was a secure job, but now he was being dismissed.

He stood there dumbfounded, unable to come to his senses for a long time.

"General, we are doing everything according to your instructions..."

At this moment, the soldier at the recruitment office wanted to argue, but after noticing Gao Shun's gaze, he immediately lowered his head and said no more.

"Let's go back."

"But General... General, I clearly..."

"Drag him away, this person's physical condition is not up to standard."

Gao Shun gave him no chance to explain and had him driven away.

At the same time, he also ordered all other recruitment efforts to be suspended.

until....

A group of more than a dozen people arrived at the recruitment site. The soldiers were about to refuse, but Gao Shun said, "Recruit them."

The soldiers standing nearby were puzzled, but because it was Gao Shun's order, they dared not disobey and obediently registered these people.

These recruits were undoubtedly all soldiers exchanged by Xiao Jingyi.

They came to Gao Shun to report, either in groups of three or five or alone.

Although Gao Shun didn't know them, he could tell from their cultivation levels whether they were people sent by Xiao Jingyi.

Furthermore, they all bore the marks of agents from Prince Yi's mansion, which was Gao Shun's true method of identifying them.

For three consecutive days, 2000 people reported on the event.

Seeing them standing neatly in the military camp, Gao Shun couldn't help but exclaim excitedly, "When did our lord train so many elite soldiers!"

"They are all at the sixth rank of cultivation, and there are more than thirty at the first rank of cultivation."

"If we add another three thousand..."

Just thinking about it filled Gao Shun with anticipation.

He then secretly informed Xiao Jingyan of this, who was also surprised, but more excited.

With such a strong army at their disposal, they have absolutely no worries.

Xie Mansion.

Mei Changsu was also extremely surprised after listening to Li Gang's report.

"Li Gang, is everything you're saying true?"

"Reporting to the sect master, everything I have said is true."

Li Gang said respectfully.

Upon receiving his reply, Mei Changsu was stunned for a while before he came to his senses and exclaimed in amazement, "Jingyi said before that he would take care of the issue of manpower."

"I originally thought he would have 5000 men at most, but I didn't expect him to have such an elite army, all of them are sixth-rank soldiers."

"Even the Crimson Flame Army back then would have a hard time gathering them all."

"He's truly a man who, when he speaks, is astounding."

Mei Changsu originally thought that he had prepared for so many years and had enough trump cards, but when faced with what Xiao Jingyi brought out, he was clearly a step behind.

No, you're making me look silly.

An elite and powerful army is not something that any martial arts force can compare to, not even the Jiangzuo Alliance, the number one gang in the world.

For the first time, Mei Changsu sensed Xiao Jingyi's power.

If such a person were to become an enemy, the consequences would be unimaginable.

"But this is good too. With Jing Yi having such methods, our actions will be much easier later on."

Mei Changsu then looked at Li Gang: "I remember Prince Yu said he would give me a few houses, right? Let's go take a look tomorrow and give him some advice."

"It's time to get an answer to the case of the Duke of Qing."

P.S.: Hello, dear readers, I'm begging for data, flowers, review votes, and monthly tickets. I'm practically kneeling before you.

036 Next target: Xie Yu (Seeking flowers, ratings, and monthly tickets)

The following day, Mei Changsu went out of the mansion to look at the house.

When Prince Yu learned that Mei Changsu was going to visit the house he had chosen, he was overjoyed and immediately offered to accompany him.

The two talked about something during that time.

All that is known is that after Prince Yu left, he had a bright smile on his face.

The next day, Prince Yu, who had been arguing for the Duke of Qing in court, completely abandoned the Duke of Qing as a pawn and said that he should be severely punished.

This also shattered the last hope of the Duke of Qing, forcing him to face trial.

On the same day, Xiao Jingyi claimed to be ill, so Emperor Liang had no choice but to summon Xiao Jingyan to the palace and appoint him as the presiding judge of the case concerning the encroachment of the Duke of Qing on his territory.

Seven days later, the case of the Duke of Qing was finally settled.

The Eastern Palace.

Upon hearing this news, Crown Prince Xiao Jingxuan couldn't help but burst into laughter: "Hahaha, with the case of the Duke of Qing settled, Prince Yu has essentially had an arm cut off!"

"Without the support of the army, he will be completely at a disadvantage when he competes with me in the court."

"Not bad, not bad."

As he spoke, Xiao Jingxuan looked regretful: "It's a pity that I originally wanted our people to be the presiding judge, but Father Emperor sent Jingyan instead."

Xiao Jingxuan had previously planned to take this opportunity to suppress Prince Yu's faction, but Emperor Liang did not give him a chance to make a move.

It's a pity that the opportunity to expand the victory is gone.

"Your Highness, His Majesty's actions also have their own deeper meaning."

"After all, if you were to get involved, you would definitely carry out a large-scale purge of Prince Yu's faction, while if Prince Yu were to take action, he might protect the Duke of Qing."

At this moment, Xie Yu, who was waiting nearby, immediately stepped forward to explain.

"So His Majesty asked Prince Jing to preside over the trial. Although it did not help us expand the war, it was a real blow to Prince Yu."

"This also avoids disrupting the current stability and polarization of the court."

"Ah."

Xiao Jingxuan was now in high spirits, and then turned to Xie Yu: "Lord Xie, do you think I should thank Prince Jing?"

"Or perhaps we could try to win him over? After all, although my younger brother's status is not high, he is capable of leading troops into battle. He will be of great use when I ascend the throne."

Upon hearing this, Xie Yu was taken aback, and then he thought about his own status.

As the only person on the Crown Prince's side who held military power and possessed the ability to lead troops, he enjoyed immense prestige and was highly valued.

If we can win over Prince Jing...

The key point is that the two of them are brothers, so they're definitely much more useful than me.

Goodness, there's no room for me!

Xie Yu was naturally unwilling, but he did not show it immediately. Instead, he offered a reason: "Your Highness, I suggest that it is not advisable to win over Prince Jing at this time."

"Why? Tell me." The Crown Prince looked at Xie Yu with surprise.

Wait for me to finish writing this.

Xie Yu immediately found an excuse and said to him, "Your Highness, since Prince Yu has not yet been eliminated, if you go and win over Prince Jing, Prince Jing's status will rise along with you after Prince Yu is eliminated."

"That might give rise to bad thoughts, that's one reason."

"Secondly, Prince Jing has always stayed away from the court and is not involved in politics. He has considerable authority in the army. If you win him over, His Majesty will definitely become suspicious of you."

"After all these years, the princes under His Majesty have either been involved in politics but not in military affairs, or in military affairs but not in politics."

To dissuade the crown prince from his idea, Xie Yu even brought up Emperor Liang.

However, it must be said that his words were very useful, and Xiao Jingxuan nodded repeatedly after hearing them.

"Now that you mention it, it makes sense. In that case, it's best not to provoke him."

"The Crown Prince is wise."

Seeing this, Xie Yu breathed a sigh of relief, finally dispelling the Crown Prince's idea; otherwise, he really wouldn't know what to do in the future.

Then the Crown Prince asked, "By the way, how is Mei Changsu doing lately?"
