Chapter 273: War King

Chapter 273 The War King will return to Beijing soon

Di Ran glanced at the two of them with his cold eyes, and said slowly: "Go back to Tianji Pavilion and receive 100 whips each, and then go to Purgatory Valley to be retrained."

Eleven and Twelve, who thought they were dead, looked up in surprise: Master, are you... not going to kill them?

After all, isn't the master always strict and likes to do things by the rules?

If this mistake had been made in the past, he would have been either killed or crippled after being whipped hundreds of times.

Now the master shows leniency and only punishes him with a hundred lashes?

This...the sun rises from the west today?

Seeing that the two were silent, Di Ran frowned slightly: "What? Is the punishment too severe?"

"My subordinates dare not!"

Eleven and Twelve quickly lowered their heads and rejected it.

It is a great kindness that the master has shown mercy and spared their lives. How dare they make any further demands?

Eleven and Twelve were excited, and they bowed in gratitude and said, "Thank you, Master, for not killing me!"

Di Ran nodded slightly: "Get up."

"Yes!"

"Yes!"

Eleven and Twelve stood up and stepped aside.

Di Ran spoke lazily: "I heard that King Zhan will be returning to the palace soon?"

Logically speaking, Ji Yunhuan has only been demoted to Nanping County not long ago, right?

How can I return to the palace?

When Di Ran thought that the person was Axie's mother, and a mother who was so cruel to Axie, he felt very unhappy.

Hearing his master's question, Bai Qi responded respectfully: "Yes, the secret agents in the palace sent news that the prince of Zhan had made great contributions in suppressing bandits in Nanping and solved several unsolved cases. With the approval of His Majesty, he was pardoned and returned to Beijing."

Mo Yan, who was standing at the side, frowned slightly after hearing this: "War King is a playboy and incompetent. Can she solve the case and eliminate the bandits? In such a short time?"

Mo Yan expressed doubts about this.

Di Ran's eyes were deep: "This matter is indeed strange."

The slender jade-like hand stroked the black jade ring on the thumb, with a complicated expression, as if thinking about something. After a moment, the red lips opened slightly: "Bai Qi~"

Bai Qi: "I'm here!"

Di Ran narrowed his dark eyes slightly: "Go to Nanping and make sure to investigate this matter thoroughly."

Although it is unclear how the King of War did it, but because she is Axie's mother and she bullied Axie, she doesn't want her to have an easy life.

Also, because of the strange feeling he had when he saw her again, she felt suspicious and had to pay no attention to it.

Although Bai Qi didn't understand why his master attached so much importance to the matter of the War King, he couldn't figure it out. He just thought that his master did it for Young Master Yun Xie and didn't like those who bullied Young Master Yun Xie to have a good time.

Therefore, she naturally obeyed her master's orders. She had long disliked the old man, King Zhan.

"Master, rest assured, I will investigate this matter thoroughly."

Di Ran said "hmm" lightly, his eyes flickered slightly, and asked another question.

"How is the investigation of the Fourth Princess going?"

Bai Qi looked at Mo Yan beside her. Mo Yan glanced at her and stood up.

"My Lord, it is not difficult to find out about the Fourth Princess. She is the fourth daughter of His Majesty. She has been extremely intelligent since she was young and was raised by the late Servant Qin."

"The Fourth Princess is lively and active by nature. She doesn't like being restrained and often goes out to play. As she grows up, she dislikes the constraints of the palace even more. She goes out to travel around the world and rarely returns to the palace. It has been three years since she left the capital."

Upon hearing this, Di Ran raised the corners of his lips and said, "He is a playful little fellow."

If Ji Rujin was here, she would definitely not be able to help but complain: What a little girl, she is not much older than me, right?

Although Di Ran is only three years older than Ji Rujin, he is much older than her in generation, so it is not an exaggeration to call him a junior.

"Master, I have ordered people to investigate and learned that the Fourth Princess is currently in Yunzhou. Do you want to continue following her?"

Di Ran narrowed his eyes slightly and said coldly: "Don't reveal your whereabouts for the time being, and order someone to protect her in secret."

Mo Yan: "Yes!"
