Chapter 340

340 What a Mess

BaiYing glanced at ShinYa.

“Master Shin please help”

ShinYa nodded, lowered his head before advancing towards the edge of the stands, within a few sentences the young shaman had already cast his protective spell, holding the stands of the stands from collapsing before the young officials stepped down from their place.

But the situation wasn’t so favourable for SuLang who was still trying to stand up to dodge, the very large log that supported the stands suddenly fell when ShinYa’s protective energy lifted the seat, and SuLang’s position was right under the big log.

“No Young Master!” cried the Su family servant who stood up from his seat in another arena of the stands. ShinYa was overwhelmed, the size of the stands that accommodated tens of people must have consumed his energy, how could he cast a second spell to protect the youth? The only way he had to run away from there before all collapsed.

ChenMing who was standing very quietly in his place just crossed his arms as if he didn’t want to know, he patted his forehead.

“Heh grandma will definitely be angry with this”

SuLang resigned when the big wooden peg fell on him, he could die silly there, this is because of his bad nature that underestimates others.

“Oh no” the young man closed his eyes as the big peg fell towards him, but, for a while, he didn’t feel any impact, even the sound of the falling stopped, slowly, the young man opened his eyes, peeked a little at whether he was dead so he didn’t feel any pain, however, his eyes then went wide, bright yellow energy surrounded his body, the huge wooden stake crashed into the energy circle and slowly slid down to the ground, right beside him.

.....

SuLang’s eyes widened, seeing where the energy came from, while another energy was still supporting the stands until everyone managed to get down, the young man immediately pulled his body back away, as well as the surrounding energy moved with him. He turned to ChenMing who was still standing where he was before, then to the King’s stand, where the Viceroy was standing looking at him, his pair of eyes clearly staring at him, and that energy, coming from his hands?

“Look what he has done, because Big Brother is being so good at it, see what happens” BaiYing grumbled, as soon as the situation was safe and the young ministerial candidate had moved away from the stands, he withdrew his energy, sitting back down in his place.

“Heh Master Shin, let’s continue the next pickle, the sky is getting dark now.”

ShinYa who was standing back beside BaiYing nodded his head.

“Yes, Your Majesty”

The young shaman gave a signal to old Pai who was in the stands opposite to continue the next event.

While MeMa’s men helped SuLang away from the field, the young master’s servant approached him quickly.

“Oh Young Master, are you okay, ouch, look at your body, this wound, ouch our little Young Master,” said the maid anxiously helping the young master sit back in his place. SuLang’s pair of eyes were still looking at the King’s Stand, the energy earlier not only saved him from being hit but also healed his wound, he didn’t even feel the pressure in his chest anymore like what he felt when Prince Chen’s attack hit him, even the tear on his cheek had healed, what happened? He thought he couldn’t believe what had happened to him.

ChenMing had already returned to his seat beside BaiYing, which was naturally greeted by the young man’s intense gaze.

“Brother, why you’ve been so reckless and destroyed everything? What if there are casualties, Brother? And why did you attack him? Didn’t you say it be just a test? If grandma finds out, big brother will definitely be punished severely.”

BaiYing was so annoyed that he still had time to hit ChenMing’s hand who was about to lift his teacup. ChenMing looked back at BaiYing who was looking at him intently.

“This kid, who told that young man to be so arrogant, how could he want to challenge the King, who does he think he is? We don’t need a Minister like that, look for another one.”

“How can we find another one, Brother? It will take some more time to test new people, after all, such a great person to be wasted, what a shame.” BaiYing puffed up his mouth, he crossed his arms in front of his chest annoyed, not wanting to see ChenMing’s face.

“This country has a lot of great people, we don’t need arrogant people like that, what will happen later when he becomes the Defense Minister, big problems can occur, anyway big brother doesn’t like him, we will find someone new, Master Shin, ask old Pai to help testing new people erm, what about the other two candidates, do they really not know martial arts at all? At least it can be trained, the Defense Minister doesn’t really need to know how to fight right?” he asked ShinYa who was standing beside him.

ShinYa nodded.

???????????????? ???????????????????????????? ???????????????????????? ???????????????????? ???????? ????????????????????-????????????.????????????

“That’s true Your Majesty, but according to the regulations, at least the Minister of Defense should be able to defend himself in case of chaos, so, that is one of the main criteria as well.”

ChenMing rounded his mouth as he nodded.

“Yeah right, He has to be able to protect himself at least, the other two candidates are quite capable of fighting, just not that great and they are still young, they can still be trained to be great right?” ChenMing said looking at BaiYing who seemed angry and didn’t want to look at him.

“Brother”

“Don’t talk to me, if there isn’t a Minister of Defense, let my brother take his place, my brother is really great,” BaiYing said as if mocking his brother.

ChenMing widen his eyes, if he didn’t remember they were trying to maintain their prestige he would have pinched BaiYing’s cheeks in annoyance.

“This kid, just say you want to finish quickly so you can go back to SanPo right?”

Bai Ying nodded.

“Yeah of course, why did Ying stay here for so long? If things can be done quickly, it’s better.”

“Rotten child, this is your house, why are you rushing to leave, how if big brother says you can’t go back to SanPo? What can you do about that?” Hearing ChenMing’s words, BaiYing looked at him sharply.

“Older brother! You can’t do that”

“Of course, I can, Ying is my little brother, as Big Brother I have the right to take care of you right?”

“But big brother couldn’t prevent Ying’er from going right? Brother has promised that when things are done Ying can return to YueYang” BaiYing shouted.

ChenMing calmly lifted his teacup, sipping it slowly while BaiYing was already on fire with irritation.

“Of course, Big Brother has the right to prevent you, after all this little brother belongs to WahYe, if Grandma doesn’t allow you, you can’t go back to SanPo”

“Brother”

Elder Yi finally stopped the two when they could not stop.

“Ahem, Prince Chen, is it appropriate to discuss this matter here? Everyone will listen to you.”

ChenMing looked around, apart from the close servants and personal guards, no one would hear them as they were quite far from the others, but indeed this wasn’t a good place to talk about BaiYIng’s personal matters that irritated him.

BaiYing was getting angrier, white flames could emerge from his body if he didn’t try to restrain himself, ChenMing calmly enjoyed his tea again, he thought he had gone too far to make his brother’s face red, holding back emotions, he so furious. One of the maids seemed to be handing BaiYing tea to calm him down.

“Your Highness, let’s drink the tea first.”

Indeed this time Prince ChenMing was a little too much.

But he’s also right, thought ShinYa, what Minister doesn’t respect his superiors, let alone to be arrogant and want to challenge his King, it’s more like a rebel, it’s still good that the young man didn’t die silly in MeMa’s punishment, as the leader of elite Troops, that young girl can mobilize her men to punish anyone who insulted the royal family, let alone insulted the King.

And, SuLang who was sitting in his chair with several other prospective officials looked regretful for his actions, the eyes of the officials around him looked at him intently as if they were also punishing him, his abilities were still far from what he thought, turn out his big reputation as a martial arts champion in SuChou was nothing here, and with this, he might as well lose his chance to become a Minister.

“Heh shit” he cursed while hitting himself on the head.

...

Nguuunggg!!

The sound of the big trumpet reverberate around the field, all officials who run from the collapsed stand take their position near the fields, and some new young official whos none other than the Candidate for Foreign affairs Minister already line up neatly, one of them, of course, FengHan, the young man with a bright and wide smile on his very confident face.

“The next test shall begin!” shout Old Man Pai from his seat.
