Chapter 39 The battle was over before it even began.

A little before.

In a private room on the second floor.

Guo Baokun was holding a white paper fan and drinking and chatting with some friends.

These friends were no ordinary people. Each of them was highly skilled in martial arts and was a fifth-rank master. He had specially found them and would recommend them to the prince in the future.

Guo Baokun was originally a disciple of the prince and they often hung out together. Knowing that the prince was short of talented people recently, he spared no expense to find one from elsewhere.

"Come on, everyone, have a drink!"

"As long as you work hard in the future, you will have money, status, and women!"

Guo Baokun raised his wine glass and spoke to everyone.

The others at the table also raised their glasses and said in unison: "We will go through fire and water for Master Guo, and we will do anything for him!"

Guo Baokun nodded and said, "Okay, let's drink."

Just when the few of them were drinking happily, Guo Baokun accidentally saw Li Chengze's figure from outside the window.

Guo Baokun thought he had seen it wrong, but after rubbing his eyes, he realized it was really him.

When Guo Baokun saw Li Chengze, he immediately had an idea in his mind.

He put down the wine glass in his hand, looked at the people in front of the table, and said seriously: "Since everyone chooses to follow me, I will no longer hide it."

"In fact, I am a disciple of the Crown Prince. Everything I do is related to the Crown Prince. From now on, as long as you work hard, you will be rich and powerful."

"You also know that the Crown Prince will be His Majesty in the future. If we follow him now, he will certainly not treat us unfairly after he ascends the throne."

The few people who were originally drinking showed excitement on their faces after hearing Guo Baokun's words.

Nowadays, being able to work with the prince is something many people dream of.

After all, without strength and connections, even if you have the intention, you won’t have the means to do it.

Especially, as Guo Baokun said just now, if he follows the prince now, wealth and glory in the future will be within his reach!

"Mr. Guo, don't worry. From now on, I will never frown, no matter how hard I try."

"Yes, just tell me if you have anything to say."

"Through fire and water, no matter what!"

……

Seeing the indignant looks on their faces, Guo Baokun nodded, immediately took out a stack of silver bills from his sleeve and threw them casually on the table.

"Here are ten thousand taels of silver. You can spend them as you wish."

"But, you need to do something for me later."

Someone immediately said, "Mr. Guo, if you have anything to say, just tell me."

The others also nodded, but no one reached out to take the banknotes.

Guo Baokun nodded with satisfaction, stood up, walked to the window, and pointed towards the hall not far away.

"Did you see that handsome man?"

"He is the Second Prince Li Chengze, and he is also the enemy of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

"So, I want you to go over and teach him a lesson, but don't be too harsh, just make him embarrassed."

"Anyway, if you fight in the street, you will be in jail for a few days at most, and you will be out soon."

"If His Royal Highness knew that you were imprisoned because of his affairs, he would have a different impression of you."

They looked at each other and felt that what Guo Baokun said did make some sense.

It is a rare opportunity to do things for others. Now that there is a ready-made opportunity in front of us, we certainly cannot miss it.

"Okay, I'll go now."

"I'll go too. It's just a few days in jail. It's no big deal."

"That's right, Mr. Guo, just watch."

After they finished talking, they immediately turned around and left the room, walking into the hall. Guo Baokun opened the white paper fan, leaned against the window, and looked at Li Chengze not far away.

Guo Baokun now works as an editor in the palace and is also a disciple of the Crown Prince. His father is the Minister of Rites, so he has developed an arrogant and contemptuous character.

Even the prince is not worth mentioning in his eyes.

If he waited for these people to beat Li Chengze up, he would then tell the prince about it.

The prince will certainly be very happy.

Thinking of this, Guo Baokun stared at the scene not far away as if he was watching a show.

at the same time.

Li Chengze was sitting at the table, talking with Xiang Yu.

He had just seen Xiang Yu perform some pretty good moves in a fight, so he wanted to learn more about it.

At this moment, a middle-aged man with a beard walked up to Li Chengze, slapped his hand on the table, and snorted:

"Who told you to sit at this table?"

Li Chengze, who was originally speaking, looked up at the bearded man and asked, "What's wrong? Is there a problem?"

The bearded man had a gloomy face and shouted, "Of course there is a problem. We reserved this table, and you dare to sit here."

"Get out of here now, or I'll make you pay for it!"

When Xiang Yu heard the bearded man say this, he stood up and clenched his fists as if he was about to take action.

After seeing this, Li Chengze waved his hand to let Xiang Yu leave, and raised his head to look behind the bearded man:

"Huh? Why is there a topless girl eating here?"

After hearing this, the bearded man immediately turned around and looked.

As a result, as soon as he turned around, he secretly thought something was wrong.

Oops!

be cheated.

After the bearded man reacted, he turned around quickly.

At this time, Li Chengze had already stood up from the stool and swung his left fist straight at the bearded man's lower abdomen.

Upon seeing this, the bearded man hurriedly put his hands under his body, ready to block the oncoming fist.

As a result, Li Chengze's left fist was just an illusory move, and the real attack was made by his right hand.

Moreover, Li Chengze's punch was extremely fast.

By the time the bearded man raised his head, the fist had already hit his chin.

"Crack!"

With a sound, the bearded man's jaw was broken and his body fell to the side.

After Li Chengze finished throwing his punch, he did not stop immediately, but rushed towards the other people.

Since they are all together, it is natural that they should benefit equally.

However, the few people who had followed him just now reacted immediately after seeing the bearded man fall down, and they all assumed fighting postures, trying to block Li Chengze's attack.

As a result, just as they made their moves, they saw hand shadows flashing before their eyes, and they were hit by several palms and punches, and all fell to the ground.

Although Li Chengze's current martial arts level is also at the fifth level, he has achieved some success in the "Nine Yang Magic Art", and with the help of his unique skill "Heavenly Mountains Plum Blossom Hand", he is comparable to an ordinary seventh-level master.

Especially when he attacked, he was fast, accurate and ruthless. The battle was over before others could react.

“Ouch… Ouch…”

The few people who came with the bearded man just now were all lying on the ground, wailing.

Li Chengze clapped his hands, looked at the people lying on the ground, and said with a smile: "You dare to cause trouble for me?"

"Tell me, who sent you here?"
