Chapter 205 Wait for me
Fan Xian listened quietly without saying a word, and looked towards the door again.
After Chen Pingping glanced at everyone, he turned to look at the prince. After staring at him for a moment, his expression softened a little and he gave soft advice.
"Your Highness, please come back."
The prince paused for a long time, having already suppressed his fear. Upon hearing this, he immediately went down the stairs, forced his way through the black cavalry's blockade, rushed to Chen Pingping and shouted.
"Chen Pingping, you are so awesome!"
Chen Pingping waved his hand, signaling Yan Ruohai who wanted to push him away not to panic, and looked calmly at the prince in front of him.
The prince's roar continued.
"Some people say that you are second to none in Kyoto!"
After hearing this, Chen Pingping smiled and said softly.
"Your Highness heard it wrong."
A few words shattered the prince's hidden evil intentions, and the prince was speechless for a moment.
Seeing this, Yan Ruohai no longer hesitated and pushed Chen Pingping to the slide on one side and pushed him upwards.
The prince's eyes followed his figure and roared again.
"I heard that the Black Cavalry under your command is unrivaled in charging into battle and killing people like flies? Then do your Black Cavalry dare to kill the crown prince? Or do you want to do it yourself?"
Chen Pingping, who had already reached the top of the stairs, sat in a wheelchair and looked down at the prince, saying calmly.
"To attack the crown prince is not the way of a subject!"
The prince looked like a madman.
"Then you can't stop me!"
After shouting, the prince pulled out the knife from the black cavalryman's waist, held the hilt with both hands, and rushed forward while slashing wildly and shouting.
"Ah~ get out of the way! Ah~ get out of the way! Get out of the way!"
The black cavalrymen who were blocking his way, and the people from the Supervisory Office all moved away. The prince was crazy, and no one dared to mess with this bad luck without Chen Pingping's order.
Fan Xian in the distance widened his eyes.
"Damn, I guess even Chen Pingping can't be stopped."
Wang Qinian swung his arms wildly when he saw this. There was a dagger in his sleeve, but it was hidden quite deep.
Fan Xian noticed his movement and took a look, puzzled.
"What are you doing?"
Wang Qinian didn't reply, he was busy swinging the knife.
Mei Cheng'an shook his head speechlessly, turned his wrist, and a three-inch long silver needle appeared between his fingers. He threw it towards the door of the Supervisory Council.
Fan Xian was stunned.
"Shit! What are you doing? What did you throw out?"
Wang Qinian stopped shaking his hands upon hearing this. The handle of the knife just emerged from his sleeve and he raised his eyes to look at Mei Chengan.
Mei Cheng'an nodded his chin towards the entrance of the Supervisory Council.
"See for yourself."
The two of them immediately looked over there.
With an inaudible sound of breaking through the air, a silver needle passed between the prince and Chen Pingping, invisible to the naked eye, and suddenly pierced into the square pillar on the side of the door, making a crisp "dang" sound.
Because the silver needle was half an inch immersed in the square column, the tail needle was still shaking rapidly, so it continued to emit a buzzing sound.
The prince stopped what he was doing immediately, and stood there in horror, staring at the silver needle on the square pillar.
When everyone was surprised and uncertain, Chen Pingping spoke decisively.
"Protect the prince!"
It was easy with the order. Several black knights stepped forward immediately. One of them first took away the long sword from the prince's hand, and the remaining two held the prince's arms and dragged him away.
The prince finally came to his senses and roared unwillingly.
"Chen Pingping! Let me go! Chen Pingping, Chen Pingping, ah~ Chen Pingping!"
Chen Pingping watched the prince go away. Although the prince was most likely unable to hear, he still insisted on finishing his words, which was both a summary and an instruction.
"The assassin is trying to kill the prince, but protecting the prince is the way of a loyal subject!"
After saying that, Chen Pingping tilted his head, and Yan Ruohai immediately pushed him towards the Supervisory Office.
Zhuge stared solemnly at the silver needle that had stopped trembling, judged the direction from which the silver needle came, and glanced over there.
Naturally, he saw nothing. Zhuge thought about it and turned to walk towards the yard.
……
Behind the tower.
Fan Xian crossed his arms, stared with his eyes, and kept pointing his fingers at Mei Cheng'an. He opened and closed his mouth, and after holding it in for a long time until his face almost turned red, he finally managed to utter a word.
"grass!"
Wang Qinian was chuckling foolishly on the side.
Mei Cheng'an also crossed his arms, smiling and looking at Fan Xian in silence.
Fan Xian, who had finally recovered after a long while, asked him with a puzzled look on his face.
"So you know martial arts?"
Mei Chengan shrugged.
"I never said I couldn't."
Fan Xian's face darkened.
"How many grades?"
Without waiting for Mei Cheng'an to answer, Fan Xian no longer wanted to know.
"No, you better not tell me. How could he have kept it a secret from me for so long and made me not be able to tell at all? He must be taller than me, damn it!"
Mei Chengan clicked his tongue.
"Let me correct you. The word 'hide' is not used very accurately. Hide is a subjective intention. I didn't mean to hide it from you. It's just that you thought I wouldn't do it without even asking. That's why there is a misunderstanding today."
Fan Xian thought about it and it seemed to be true. He had indeed never asked. Thinking of this, Fan Xian became even more depressed.
After all this fuss, the problem lies with him. Who can he vent his anger on? He is really screwed!
As he was thinking about it, Fan Xian glanced at Wang Qinian, wondering if this guy was hiding something from him.
Although Wang Qinian didn't know what Fan Xian was thinking, he knew that his eyes seemed unfriendly. He immediately became alert, took a step back, and gestured with his hand.
"It has nothing to do with me. Sir, please don't look at me and don't hurt innocent people."
"..."
Fan Xian: "..."
Mei Cheng'an looked at the two of them with a smile, then suddenly looked at Fan Xian and stretched out his hand to greet him.
"Hello, long time no see."
Fan Xian was stunned when he heard this.
"What the hell, it's been a while..."
Before he finished speaking, he saw Wang Qinian also bowing to him.
"Lord Shadow." Even though Fan Xian was slow to react, he knew that the two men were not coming for him, so he quickly turned around and looked back.
He saw a man covered in a black robe and a black bird-beak mask standing behind him. He raised his hand halfway, perhaps wanting to pat him on the shoulder.
Fan Xian looked at him strangely, with confusion in his eyes. He had never heard of the name Shadow.
Shadow rolled his eyes at Mei Cheng'an, who was a little embarrassed at the sudden greeting, and lowered his hands stiffly, looking at Fan Xian.
"The dean wants to see you!"
Fan Xian was stunned for a moment.
"To see me? How did he know I was here?"
As he spoke, Fan Xian looked at Mei Cheng'an.
Mei Cheng'an spread his hands, indicating that it had nothing to do with him, and glanced at Wang Qinian.
Fan Xian instantly looked at Wang Qinian.
Wang Qinian had a wry smile on his face at this time.
Great, I finally got the upper hand. Fan Xian stretched out his finger and kept poking Wang Qinian, his fingertips almost poking Wang Qinian's face.
"You are so good, Wang Qinian!"
Wang Qinian shrank his neck, pursed his lips, and leaned back with a wry smile.
Shadow now turned his gaze to Mei Chengan.
"Don't be happy, and you too!"
Mei Chengan's smile disappeared.
This old guy met Ye Qingmei's son for the first time. He asked me to join him and had some fun. After watching the fun, he was in a hurry to eat.
……
Inside the Supervisory Yuan.
The dean’s private courtyard.
Mei Cheng'an squatted on the ground, waved to someone, took the food bowl handed to him, grabbed a piece of dog food from it, and threw it at the huge Tibetan Mastiff in front of him.
Don't get me wrong, this dog food is not that kind of dog food. It is a dog food similar to mud balls specially developed for the dog by the person in charge of raising dogs in the orphanage.
A lot of bone-strengthening powder and some nutritional products are added to it, which has a good effect on filling the stomach.
As for the taste, judging by the big Tibetan Mastiff’s willingness to accept anything, it must be good.
The dog food was dry and had no odor, so Mei Chengan had no psychological burden when holding it.
Mei Chengan threw two more pieces and watched the Tibetan Mastiff in front of him eat with relish.
Chen Pingping sat behind him, watching with a smile, without saying a word, while Fan Xian and Wang Qinian stood behind him.
Fan Xian also wanted to feed the dog. This ferocious Tibetan mastiff would confuse anyone who saw it.
But he was not familiar with Chen Pingping yet, and for the time being he could not be as relaxed and casual as his fellow villager.
Mei Chengan threw another piece of dog food, stood up, and turned to look at Chen Pingping.
"What do you want to talk to me about? Tell me."
Chen Pingping looked at him and smiled without saying anything. Instead, he pointed at the food bowl in his hand and made a pinky promise.
Mei Cheng'an was speechless and handed the basin over.
Chen Pingping didn't take it either. She just reached out and took a piece of dog food from it, then waved her hand to signal him to get out of the way.
"..."
Mei Chengan's mouth twitched and he stepped aside.
After Chen Pingping threw the dog food to the Tibetan Mastiff, he looked at it for a while before speaking.
"Nothing much, I just haven't seen you for a long time, I wanted to see you and say hello, nothing else."
Mei Cheng'an was stunned for a moment.
"That's it?"
Chen Pingping leaned back, shook his sleeves, placed his arms on the armrests of the wheelchair, and smiled.
"That's it!"
"..."
"alright."
Mei Cheng'an nodded and held out the food bowl to the man. The man came over, took the food bowl and stepped aside.
Look at Chen Pingping again.
"Do you need me to give you two injections? After two injections, your cold will be cured immediately."
Chen Pingping was somewhat excited when he heard this. He had long known that Mei Chengan had learned medical skills from the imperial physician of the Imperial Hospital.
"need!"
Mei Cheng'an didn't waste any time and stepped forward immediately. When he raised his hand, several silver needles appeared in his hand.
He grabbed Chen Pingping's left hand, and first pricked the Hegu point on the back of Chen Pingping's hand with a silver needle. The needle went in and out, twisted it for a while, and then pulled it out.
Then he signaled Wang Qinian to help roll up Chen Pingping's sleeves and pricked the Lieque point on the radial side of his forearm, one and a half inches above the transverse wrist crease.
Finally, I pricked his Fengchi acupoint and called it a day.
"It's said to be two injections, this last one is a gift for you."
Chen Pingping said with a smile.
"Thank you very much."
Mei Cheng'an flipped his wrist and the silver needle disappeared. Hearing this, he waved his hand.
"What are you thanking me for? It's good to practice with you. If you have nothing else, I'll leave first. I haven't eaten yet and I'm hungry."
Chen Pingping nodded and turned his head to talk to Wang Qinian.
"You can go too, just let Fan Xian push me."
"Yes!"
Wang Qinian let go of the handle and made way for Fan Xian.
"Wait a moment, both of you."
After saying this, Fan Xian looked at Chen Pingping and asked.
"Does it take you long to finish what you're talking about to me?"
Chen Pingping tilted his head towards him and spoke softly.
"not long."
Hearing this, Fan Xian nodded and looked at the two of them.
"Then you wait outside for a while and we'll eat together later."
