A Hexagram determines the monarchs mind - Chapter23

The moment Xu Ting fell down, several people in the room felt that they had regained their ability to move.

"Tie him up!" Chen Jue reacted very quickly, turning his head and shouting at Wang Hua.

Wang Hua immediately rushed forward, but there was no rope around him to tie him up. The moment Wang Hua rushed over, he had already pulled out a long sword from his waist.

He was very simple and rough. He stabbed down with his huge sword and actually pierced Prince Six's thigh. The sword directly nailed Prince Six to the floor, and the sword sank more than nine inches into Prince Six's thigh.

"Ah —" Prince Six had never suffered such physical pain for many years. He let out a low cry, raised his head with bloodshot eyes, and then turned around to shrink into the shadow.

"Be careful, he's going to run away!"

Jue Chen ignored the pain in his arm and jumped up almost beyond his body's limit. He grabbed the oil lamp and pushed it toward the Sixth Prince without caring that it was burning his hand.

The light of the oil lamp illuminated Prince Six, and also isolated him from the shadows of the other furniture around him, so that Prince Six could no longer blend into the shadows to escape.

Wang Hua immediately pulled his belt, loosened his outer shirt, and bent over to tie Prince Six.

Wang Yi passed through the courtyard of the House of Chen, and when he was led to the door of the study by Xiao Tong, he saw this scene.

"Ah!" He let out a low growl, ignored everything, and ran directly toward Xu Ting.

Wang Yi half-knelt in front of Xu Ting, and helped Xu Ting up. He saw Xu Ting's pale face, bleeding from his lips, and the front of his clothes were splashed with blood when he spat out blood just now. He looked dispirited and weak …

He said nervously, "Xu Ting, how are you?

Are you okay?

Xu Ting? "

Xu Ting, "I'm … fine."

"You're coughing up blood … Where are you hurt?"

Wang Yi hurriedly groped up and down, looking for a wound. He was so anxious that he panicked, afraid that he would touch a bloody hole.

"I'm fine."

Xu Ting forcefully swallowed the blood that was about to surge up into his stomach. He wanted to say something but couldn't, so he reached out and pointed in the direction of Chen Jue and Wang Hua, wanting Wang Yi to hurry and help.

"Let me help you up. Do you have the strength?" Wang Yi raised his eyebrows and lowered his eyes, looking sad and worried.

Xu Ting's brows furrowed even tighter. He forcefully slapped away Wang Yi's hand and said, "Go — —"

Before Xu Ting could finish his words, Chen Jue had already shouted angrily, "Wang Yi!"

Wang Yi was shocked by the shout. He turned his head and saw Lord Chen. Only then did he realize where he was. He turned his face and looked at Xu Ting with a troubled expression.

"Go quickly!" Xu Ting was so angry that he was trembling.

Only then did Wang Yi gently let go of Xu Ting. He suddenly jumped and rushed to Wang Hua's side — —

Prince Six knew that once he was caught, he would have no chance.

He endured the pain and waved his arm. The dagger cut off Wang Hua's belt.

Wang Hua was forced to dodge the dagger — —

"Ah — —" Prince Six endured the pain and pulled out the long sword that Wang Hua nailed to his leg. He gritted his teeth, trembled with cold sweat, and stabbed the long sword at Wang Hua.

When Wang Hua dodged again, Prince Six suddenly jumped toward the shadow behind the screen in the study — —

"Your Highness, please wait!"

At this moment, Wang Yi rushed in front of Prince Six. He shook his body vigilantly and moved to Prince Six's side — — He made sure that his shadow was not connected to Prince Six's shadow. This was to prevent Prince Six from escaping into their connected shadows.

No one saw Wang Yi's movement when he pulled out the sword. After a shadow, Wang Yi's long sword had already pierced Prince Six's chest.

Prince Six growled in horror and had no choice but to step back.

Wang Yi's speed was faster than his. When he stepped back, Wang Yi had changed the direction of his sword again. The tip of the sword trembled slightly. After a flash of sword light, Prince Six's right hand was bleeding and the dagger in his hand fell to the ground.

When Prince Six felt the pain in his right hand, Wang Yi's sword had changed direction again and went straight to his left hand — —

Several sword shadows and several streams of blood splashed. When Wang Yi's sword stopped, Prince Six had already fallen to the ground. His hands, feet, chest, and shoulders were covered with blood — —

He fell to the ground, his blood flowing out faster than he had expected. His lips quickly turned pale, and his face lost all color.

Wang Hua raised his hand and caught the belt that Chen Jue threw to him. He rushed forward and tied Prince Six firmly. Then, he quickly placed four oil lamps in the four directions of Prince Six — — as if he was setting up some kind of magic array.

The light from all directions diluted Prince Six's shadow.

Prince Six lost a lot of his strength due to the blood loss from his wound.

He finally smiled bitterly and knew that he had lost his advantage.

"Wang — —" Chen Jue was about to order Wang Yi when he saw that Prince Six was captured. Wang Yi had already put away his sword and immediately ran to help Xu Ting …

Chen Jue gritted his teeth and said, "Wang … Hua, go and call the butler. Ask him to call the doctor to treat Prince Six's injury."

"Yes, sir!"

After Wang Hua responded, he grabbed his outer shirt and ran out. His belt was cut off by Prince Six, so he had to grab his clothes with his hands to prevent himself from being indecent.

"Wait." Chen Jue called Wang Hua again, "Also, prepare the knockout drug …"

"… Yes!" Wang Hua was stunned for a moment. Then, he responded and immediately disappeared outside the door.

Prince Six had a supernatural ability. If his injury was healed and he had strength again, it would be impossible to guard against him. He could just find a shadow and slip away … If he was released into the sea, how could they catch him in the future?

Prince Six heard Chen Jue's words and sneered. His face was bleak.

The wound on Chen Jue's arm was not small. He lost a lot of blood and began to feel dizzy. He supported himself on the table and sat on the chair shakily. Even though he had already rolled a few times on the ground and was covered in dust, he still tried to straighten his back and not lose his arrogance.

Everything happened too fast. Li Xiao only reacted now. She turned her face and saw Chen Jue shaking. She quickly stood up and endured the pain on her back and butt when she fell on the ground. She reached out a pair of dirty little hands and held Lord Chen's arm to help him sit down slowly.

Jue Chen sat down with a straight face. He endured the pain that made his veins pop out. He turned his head and saw Li Xiao's dirty hands. He said unhappily, "Look at how dirty your hands are. My clothes …"

Then he saw that his robe was covered in dirt and blood. He really didn't care about Li Xiao's dirty handprints. He pursed his lips and swallowed the rest of his words.

Li Xiao saw that Chen Jue's wound was still bleeding. She was so anxious that her forehead was sweating. She turned her face and saw Wang Hua's broken belt on the ground. She quickly picked it up and tied it to Chen Jue's upper arm to stop the bleeding.

The room was in a mess. Tables, chairs, brushes, ink, and books were scattered all over the floor. Blood was everywhere. All the oil lamps were placed around the Sixth King, and the table next to him was mottled with dark shadows and stains.

Chen Jue looked around his study and frowned.

He sat by the desk with his back against the light. One of his elbows was on the table, and the other arm was injured and hanging by his side.

Because the belt was tied to Prince Six by Wang Hua, his dark blue robe could only be loosely opened at this moment, revealing the white inner robe that was stained with dust and blood …

This kind of Master Chen exuded a sense of laziness and desolation, making people's gazes involuntarily follow the white underwear up his body …

His two collarbones supported the lapel. Half of them were outside the collar, and the other half were inside the collar.

The rise and fall of the collarbones made the fabric of the collar unable to stick to the skin. Therefore, there was a distinction between light and dark.

The shadow between the hollow of the collarbones and the collar extended into the collar. The mystery and concealment were even more seductive.

His slender and good-looking neck and the Adam's apple that symbolized masculinity were particularly clear. Coupled with his face that was more three-dimensional and good-looking in the light and shadow, he was like a dark black and white sculpture. He was so beautiful that it was a little breathtaking.

In particular, his eye sockets were slightly sunken, and his eyelashes were long and thick. His upper and lower eyelashes were sandwiched, causing his long eyes to be completely hidden in the shadow of his eyelashes. Only when he turned his head slightly, the light would occasionally shine on his pupils. There would be a little bit of light in the shadow, attracting people's attention.

Li Xiao stood by the table. She was originally in a 'battlefield' and had just experienced a life and death situation. She was nervous and at a loss. However, when she suddenly took a step back and looked at Lord Chen again, she was a little distracted and almost forgot where she was …
