Princess Medical Doctor

Chapter 933: Take action, he needs a record

The Eldest Prince and the bandit leader put on a full show, testing both gold and people. It took a full two-quarters of an hour to satisfy both parties.

"These gold bricks are not bad. 200 taels, no less." The bandit leader didn't know that the gold bricks were fake, and the examiner didn't find anything unusual. He thought they were two hundred taels of gold.

"Now can you release my Third brother, Seventh brother, and Prince Xiao and Princess Xiao of the East?" Of course, the Eldest Prince would not forget his responsibilities.

He was here to save people this time, and the top priority was to save them.

"Of course we will, but not like this. What if you kill us after you get them into a safe place?" The bandit leader said slowly and politely, looking confident.

Hmm… After hearing this, the Third Prince kept struggling, as if he had something to say, but no one present paid attention to him.

The Seventh Prince has lost a lot of weight and cannot move even when he is simply tied up. His originally arrogant expression was now calm, and his clear eyes had become much darker.

Lin Chujiu couldn't help but shake her head when she saw the Seventh Prince like this.

The Seventh Prince who showed off his power in the Eastern Country has disappeared. She doesn't know if this is a good thing or a bad thing for the Seventh Prince.

"You want to go back to your words?" After hearing this, the Eldest Prince deliberately looked angry.

He was a military commander, so it was really easy for him to look fierce.

"No, no, no…how could we go back on our word? Although we are bandits, we are not thieves. We will let people go after we take the money. But for the sake of our safety, I have to keep a hostage on hand. When we are out of danger, we will release the people, and then you can go rescue them." The bandits then push Xiao Tianyao, Lin Chujiu, and the Third Prince forward, leaving the Seventh Prince in their hands.

“This little prince is young, so I’ll take him so that you won't attack us." The Third Prince was old, and he was afraid of him seeing clues. The Seventh Prince was the best candidate.

“What if you don’t let him go?” The Eldest Prince naturally will not agree.

“Your Highness, in this situation, you can only choose to believe us. You have no other choice.” The bandit leader said with a gangly look, leaving no room for discussion.

“The Eldest Prince, I will get someone to send a small boat. You better pick up these three people.” The bandit leader pointed at the Third Prince and the other two people as if he had the final say.

The Eldest Prince hesitated for a moment, nodded heavily, but then made a request: "Can I change the hostage? My seventh brother is too young and cannot withstand your threats again."

"Who should I replace? The third prince? It's okay, although it's a little troublesome, but I can knock people out." The bandit leader looked like he was easy to negotiate, but… …

The Third Prince disagreed. Although his mouth was stuffed with something, he still made sounds to express his dissatisfaction.

"What should we do? The third prince seems to disagree." The bandit leader laughed when he saw it, clearly looking down on the Third Prince.

They thought the Third Prince was smart, but now it seems he was really stupid.

Does the Third Prince think that the Eldest Prince was the only one here?

Does the Third Prince think that the Seventh Prince will not hate him if he pushes him out?

The Third Prince was unwilling and kept staring at the Eldest Prince with his eyes. The Eldest Prince looked worried, but he was secretly happy in his heart.

The Third Prince made a mistake, which was his opportunity to show off.

"My Third brother and Seventh brother are both frightened, so how about using me as a hostage? You can drag me or tie me up. I only have one request, and that is to let my Third brother, Seventh brother, Prince Xiao, and his wife leave safely." The Eldest Prince could already imagine how those people would praise him after he returned to the capital.

The Eldest Prince stepped forward and risked his life to save his younger brother!

With this reputation, even if his father dislikes him, he cannot ignore him.

“You?” The bandit leader looked at the Eldest Prince, obviously unwilling.

“I am the Eldest Prince of the Central Empire, and my status is enough that the soldiers of the empire dare not move.” The Eldest Prince looked fearlessly and looked at the bandits firmly.

When the Third prince saw this, he immediately calmed down and looked at the bandit leader expectantly, hoping that he would agree. At the same time, he secretly prayed that the Eldest Prince would die at the hands of the bandits so that even the Eldest Prince's great achievements would be useless.

When a person dies, there is nothing left. No matter how good others say he was, it was all in vain.

The Seventh Prince, whose eyes had been blank and wondering what he was thinking, moved his eyes when he heard the Eldest Prince's words as if he couldn't believe it and seemed puzzled. He looked at the Eldest Prince as if he were looking at a monster.

It has been almost a month since he was kidnapped by bandits. The Seventh Prince was no longer the naive and well-protected little prince he was before. His world was shattered in an instant, and he grew up in an instant.

In his opinion, it was normal for his imperial brothers to be selfish like the Third Prince, so it seems a bit stupid for the Eldest Prince to… rather risk his own life to save them.

But what should he do if he likes his eldest brother more?

The Seventh Prince's eyes were slightly red. He glanced at the Third Prince, who had been closer to him before, and silently lowered his head to hide the disappointment in his eyes.

“I’m in better health than my third and seventh brothers. Going to the sea with you won't cause any trouble. I don’t think you want a prince to die in your hands.”

“I have only stayed in military camps before, and have never been to the sea. I am not familiar with the sea routes at all, and it is impossible to write down the road you will take.”

"I……"

To convince the bandits, the Eldest Prince kept listing the reasons why he was more suitable to be a hostage, and with the Eldest Prince's strong promotion, the bandit leader finally agreed.

“Okay, come here in the boat, and we’ll let them go.” The bandit leader ordered people to put down the boat and then ordered them to take the Third prince, the Seventh prince, Xiao Tianyao, and Lin Chujiu with them.

Two small boats met in the middle of the sea. The Eldest Prince glanced at the Third Prince and the Seventh Prince, with worry on his face: "I hope you all leave well."

The Third Prince pursed his lips and said nothing. The Seventh Prince nodded slightly and whispered: "Thank you, brother."

Xiao Tianyao and Lin Chujiu didn't speak. They looked at each other with a deep meaning that only each other could understand.

After the two boats met in the middle of the sea, they separated again. When Xiao Tianyao and others' boat sailed next to the ship, the boat the eldest prince was riding also came to the bandit's boat.

“Go and get the gold, let’s go!” The bandits escorting Xiao Tianyao and others lightly jumped onto the ship filled with gold, threw an iron hook to the ship, and let the ship pull them away.

“The Eldest Prince, let’s get on the boat.” The bandit leader gave the Eldest Prince a lot of face and only asked people to surround him without harming him.

"I want to see them leave safely." The Eldest Prince did not move. He just looked at the boat of Xiao Tianyao and others. He waited until the boat they were on was out of sight, then he moved.

However, instead of getting on the boat, he jumped into the water and shouted: "Do it!"

Yes, do it!

He was the Eldest Prince of the Central Empire. He needs to show some blood and strength, and cannot just compromise with the bandits… …
