In Dazhou, I was overheard by the Empress

Ye Chen thought about it, and felt that it seemed inappropriate to go with any prince.

No matter who you follow, you are bound to offend the other.

He didn't want to get involved in the royal family's infighting, so why did he stand aside?
Anyway, my Ye Mansion is also in the capital, so it's not like I don't have a place to live.

"I appreciate the kindness of the two princes, but the two of you are too worried about today's matter."

"In any case, what happened tonight is really wrong. Since those who neglected their duties have already been punished, there is no need to say anything about compensation."

"Now that I have been away from home for a long time, I already miss my old mother very much. I will go back to accompany my parents tonight and not disturb the two princes."

Ye Chen stood between the two princes, not helping each other.

After hearing Ye Chen's words, the two princes thought about it.

They wondered, wouldn't it only take a few days for Ye Chen to go to the Confucius Temple?

Although things have happened one after another in the past few days, it is not necessary to behave like a wanderer who has been away from home for many years, right?
This is obviously an excuse, and it is an attitude that he does not want to stand in line!

But that's fine, after all, the Holy Son means a lot to them.

Since the Holy Son is not helping each other now, he can go back and make a long-term plan.

"Haha, this prince is being hasty, that holy son, I must find an opportunity to get together in the future."

"This prince has admired your talent for a long time."

Ji Xin let out a haha ​​and walked away.

"Since that's the case, the prince will not bother the Son anymore, but I believe we will meet again soon."

After Ji Xi took a deep look at Ye Chen, he also left with a group of subordinates.

"Second Highness, are we leaving just like that?"

"Haven't we said nothing to the Son?"

After walking far away, Ji Xi's subordinates began to ask in a low voice.

"Don't worry, it seems that you have gained nothing tonight, but in fact, you have gained a lot."

Ji Xi smiled deeply.

"First of all, we met the Holy Son in advance without going to the Confucius Temple. In this case, he was defenseless."

"In other words, what we see is the real Son!"

The subordinates nodded upon hearing the words.

If he goes to visit, the Holy Son may know in advance, thus disguising his image.

But tonight it happened suddenly, no one could have expected it.

"Under such circumstances, this prince found that his strength really matches the legend! He is even stronger than this prince imagined!"

There was a hint of excitement in Ji Xi's eyes.

"Huh? Why is that?"

The servants were puzzled.

Didn't the Holy Son not make a move at all tonight?How did Second Highness see it?

"Have you noticed the tower-like man behind him?"

"That person is Candle Dragon."

As soon as this remark came out, the servants were not surprised.

After all, they already knew about it from Ye Chen's few words.

But it's a pity that Candle Dragon's body was not seen.

"Second Highness, this only shows that the strength of the Holy Son is the same as in the legend? Why do you say that he is stronger than you imagined?"

The servants were puzzled.

"Because the candle dragon is in human form!"

"Ok?"

"Monsters at the level of martial saints go up, have you ever seen a human form?"

"This...have you never seen this before?"

The servants pondered for a long time, but they couldn't seem to find a single case that met the conditions.

"It's right if you haven't seen it before. The monsters think that their own body is the most noble and powerful. In fact, the body is indeed their strongest posture."

"In their view, the body of the human race is very weak, so monsters with a little strength don't bother to take human form."

Ji Xi said lightly.

He said it was indeed reasonable, after all, like a little fox who has no cultivation base now, but is unwilling to transform into a human form.

"Think about it differently, are you willing to transform into a bug on the side of the road?"

After hearing this, all the subordinates reacted one after another.

"That Candle Dragon is the ancient overlord, why is he willing to take human form?!"

The subordinates immediately reacted and said in shock.

"This is what the prince wants to say!"

There was a light in Ji Xi's eyes.

"This prince originally thought that the Holy Son was just forcibly restraining Zhulong. In this case, even if the Holy Son is powerful, if Zhulong is unwilling, he will not forcibly transform into a human form."

"But Candle Dragon has just changed!"

"This means that the Holy Son may have subdued his consciousness together! Candle Dragon has really become the Holy Son's loyal pet!"

"It's easy to kill but hard to kill."

"Listen to the name the Holy Son gave him, Black Emperor... that's the big black dog in "Shading the Sky"!"

"Do you dare to call Zhulong a big black dog?"

Speaking of this, all the subordinates suddenly realized it!
As expected of his Second Highness, he was able to unearth so much useful information from such a few clues!

"As for the other point, the prince was very surprised."

"My prince asked the third prince to come tonight. The first point is naturally to suppress his power."

"The second point is to test the Son's attitude!"

"This prince thought that he would lean towards the third prince... I didn't expect that he would not help each other?!"

"In this way, as long as the Holy Son doesn't get involved, then our chances of winning are [-]%!"

"If the Holy Son helps us, then the odds are [-]%!"

"But no matter what, you can't let the Holy Son go to the other side. After seeing you tonight, this prince was too optimistic before he found out."

"If the Holy Son is on the opposite side, the odds of winning are almost zero!"

Hearing these words, the servants also nodded, expressing that they had already remembered it in their hearts.

Ye Chen and the others had naturally entered the city gate at this time.

"Xiao Hong, why don't you live in Ye Mansion?"

Ye Chen said with concern.

He remembered that the reason why Hong Li came to Confucius Holy Academy was because he was kicked out by his family.

Hong Li should be homeless now.

"It's so late, the disciple won't bother the master, just..."

"Where are there so many worries? Didn't you all sleep in the same room before?"

Ye Chen waved his hand.

Naturally, Hong Li didn't insist, so he followed Ye Chen back to Ye Mansion.

There are also two night watchmen at the door of Ye Mansion in the middle of the night.

But they are not like the group of drunkards at the city wall, they are much more conscientious.

As soon as they felt footsteps coming towards them from a distance, the two immediately became alert.

I unconsciously clenched the weapon in my hand!

As the footsteps got closer, the two became more and more nervous.

"who is it?!"

As soon as the footsteps stopped, the two shouted loudly!
"Why are you yelling so loudly? What if you wake up your parents?"

"Ah? Master?!"

The two breathed a sigh of relief after seeing the figure in the dark clearly.

"Master, why are you back?"

"We didn't know it was you who came back. We thought it was a thief."

The two smiled awkwardly.

However, Ye Chen just experienced the baptism of the group of guards on the city wall, and now he feels that his guards are simply too conscientious.

Naturally, he didn't say anything, and even praised a few words.

"Well, you did a good job."
