Chapter 1196 The Descent of the Gods: Seeing the Light of Day Again
Crown Prince Xiao Jingye turned his head and glanced at Feng Jiu, who was already trembling uncontrollably!
Two footsteps came from behind...
Crown Prince Xiao Jingye turned his head and exchanged a smile with Leng Rongyue and Xiao Jingyu.
At this moment, Feng Jiu could no longer stand and knelt down on the ground with a thud.
"Your Highness, please forgive me!"
The villain is guilty!
It was a petty person who mistook these three beasts for one of their own!
It was the villain who was wrong!
"Please forgive this lowly person, Your Highness!"
Crown Prince Xiao Jingye glanced down at Feng Jiu, who was kneeling on the ground trembling, and said, "Whether you are wrong or guilty... will be determined later!"
But right now…
Xiao Jingye suddenly turned his head, pointed towards the road they had come from, and said with a slight smile, "My men have arrived!"
This prince!
This prince!
Everyone present was momentarily confused. Just a moment ago, he was referring to himself as "this king," but suddenly he turned into "this crown prince"!
Feng Jiu felt as if a muffled thunderclap had suddenly exploded above his head, leaving him completely disoriented and utterly dazed!
Feng Jiu subconsciously followed the others present and looked in the direction Xiao Jingye pointed...
Then, more than twenty figures dressed in light blue outfits appeared at the foot of the watchtower in the distance.
These people used their lightness skills, and their speed was so fast that they arrived in front of Xiao Jingye and his group in just a few leaps!
"Your Highness, we pay our respects!"
Greetings, Your Highness Prince Yu!
"Greetings, Princess Chengxian!"
The fact that these twenty-odd people knelt down to pay their respects, along with the titles they used, completely stunned everyone present!
"Get up!"
Crown Prince Xiao Jingye slightly raised his hand.
"Yes!
Your Highness, we thank you!
The twenty-odd people stood up nimbly, stood on the left and right, and awaited the orders of Crown Prince Xiao Jingye.
Crown Prince Xiao Jingye then removed his silver mask, turned to look at Xun Zheng and the others who were standing there dumbfounded, and turned the dragon-patterned jade pendant at his waist over so that Xun Zheng and the others could see it clearly.
Xun Zheng and the others had not yet fully recovered from their shock.
Since they were forced to come to this place, which is supposedly a gold mine but is actually a den of demons, every day has been filled with darkness and torment.
Day after day, they almost gave up any hope of ever seeing the light of day again!
Unexpectedly, His Highness the Crown Prince, His Highness Prince Yu, and Princess Chengxian descended like gods today, pulling them out of the abyss and rescuing them from the sea of suffering!
They simply couldn't believe it!
They were afraid... afraid that all of this was just a beautiful dream!
At this moment, they were even afraid that if they breathed too heavily or made a sound unintentionally, the dream in front of them would disappear!
Finally, Xun Zheng and the others were the first to come to their senses.
Xun Zheng and the others knelt down before Crown Prince Xiao Jingye, Prince Yu Xiao Jingyu, and Princess Chengxian Leng Rongyue...
We, your humble servants, pay our respects to Your Highness the Crown Prince!
Greetings, Your Highness Prince Yu!
Greetings to Princess Chengxian!
The soldiers and laborers standing opposite were also stunned by the scene before them...
At this moment, seeing Xun Zheng and the others kneel down, they seemed to suddenly wake up from a dream and hurriedly knelt down in a rush, following Xun Zheng and the others.
"We, your humble servants, pay our respects to Your Highness the Crown Prince!"
Greetings, Your Highness Prince Yu!
Greetings to Princess Chengxian!
The shouts of the group almost exhausted all their remaining strength!
The calls echoed through the valley for a long time!
"You have all suffered!"
We're too late!
I'm so sorry everyone!
Crown Prince Xiao Jingye stopped referring to himself as "this Crown Prince" and instead sincerely bowed to the crowd in apology.
No! That's not it!
"We, your humble servants, are deeply grateful to His Highness the Crown Prince, His Highness Prince Yu, and Princess Chengxian for saving our lives!"
Expressing gratitude echoed throughout the room.
Crown Prince Xiao Jingye first helped Xun Zheng and the others up, then walked to the crowd below and helped up the few laborers kneeling at the front.
"Everyone, please get up!"
Xiao Jingyu said gently.
"This humble subject thanks Your Highness!"
Everyone was so excited that their bodies were trembling. They kowtowed several times before helping each other to their feet!
Crown Prince Xiao Jingye turned around and looked at Xun Zheng, "Commander Xun, I admire your uprightness and incorruptibility!"
Furthermore, the imperial court has never dismissed you from your post. You should still refer to yourself as "your subject" in front of me, the Crown Prince!
It's time to set things right!
You, Xun Zheng, are still the military commander of Dongchang Prefecture.
"I now need you to assist me in my duties as the Commander of the Imperial Guards. Are you willing?"
Upon hearing this, Xun Zheng stepped forward, knelt on one knee, and clasped his hands in a fist salute. "Your subject, Xun Zheng, is willing to dedicate himself to Jingyue with all his heart and soul!"
Xun Zheng…I am at Your Highness’s beck and call!
Crown Prince Xiao Jingye helped Xun Zheng up.
"it is good!
Next, we need to make sure the people here who have suffered enough have a full meal so that they have the strength to go home and reunite with their families!
Commander Xun, please arrange for reliable people to cook several pots of rice porridge. Also, please remind the long-suffering people not to eat too much or too quickly at once.
Eating too much too quickly after being hungry for too long can be fatal!
"Yes, Your Majesty, I obey!"
