Race to the
Throne
Chapter 21: Heart Beat
Duan Yi became all happy after knowing that her life is saved and the person who saved her is her sister
"Where were you this whole time sister?" Duan Yi asked Han Yachun
"After being kidnapped I was sold to some rich noble. I spent a few years there and when they got bored of me, they sold me to a brothel
The rest of my life was in a brothel until I met Lord Hao Jiazhi. And here I am" Han Yachun told Duan Yin her life journey in a short term
"It will hurt a little but stay strong okay?" Xiao Cai asked as he grabs the arrow that has pierced Duan Yi's leg
He pulled the arrow at a high speed so she won't feel any pain but still she screamed in pain
"Let me help you stand" Xiao Cai said as he throws the arrow away and helps Duan Yi stand up
They were about to leave when suddenly something came from behind them
It was an arrow that came straight towards Han Yachun
"get a side" Hao Jiazhi said calmly as he moves in front of Han Yachun's back and pushed her away
*splash*
The arrow pierced the shoulder of Hao Jiazhi but he didn't even scream as to him, it was a very warm nostalgic feeling
After all, it has been a long time since he felt pain since he came into this world. Pain that made him remember his good old days back on earth
"ahhh…" Still, Hao Jiazhi screamed a little
"WHO ARE YOU?" Wang Liang asked as he looked at the direction from where the arrow came from
But to their surprise, it was Big Brother Hao Ming (Biggest brother)
Still, this doesn't mean that they can be overlooked for their actions.
"1st prince, do you know what your action meant?" Wang Liang asked
Hao Ming smiled and with his 4 or 5 men came near Hao Jiazhi's group and said "I was aiming for my target, but it's you master/lord who came in between"
At this Hao Jiazhi said "Aiming at target? Are you talking about my attendant?"
Hao Jiazhi gives a serious glare to Hao Ming while he takes out the arrow from his shoulder
The moment the arrow came out, blood started spreading from the wound where the arrow was
"Actually, I thought it was her (Duan Yi). So it was my mistake, sorry" Hao Ming said with a smile
Clearly, he was not sorry
Hao Jiazhi's group was really angry at this scene but what can they say here as the attack was not lethal, so they have to shut up
But Xiao Cai, Wang Liang, and Han Yachun knows this thing correctly that Hao Jiazhi won't leave Hao Ming all normal
He is the type of guy who loves to torture people
Thus they were somewhat happy also as they were being looked down on by Hao Mings guards and servants
Hao Jiazhi gave a wide smile and said "It's ok big brother… Its hunting game… So someone will get hurt… It's ok…
Also, as compensation, I will be taking this girl (Duan Yi) with me… Hope that big brother won't have any problem"
Hao Ming didn't care much about Hao Jaizhi's request but still, he has to save his face so he lets him take her
And so, both of them parted their ways
After that, Hao Jiazhi stayed inside the forest till the end of the game and then came back home (his mother's house)
But, he is not alone
He is with 30 men and women, who are they? You will know it soon
Nighttime-
Sing Xia came back from her business meeting and became all sad when she comes to know that her son got hurt and also that he didn't win the festival
At first, he thought that her son still needs time to grow, but soon this was discarded when she heard the full details of what happened
For the first time ever, Hao Ming had lost this hunting festival, and the one who won it was 3rd prince
How?
Flashback-
After that small incident, Hao Jiazhi didn't take any medical leave or tried to heal his wound
He straight went behind Hao Ming and told his men to get all the captives as he will buy them all for one million ban liang for each person
His servants did what he was told and Hao Jiazhi did what he wanted
Destroy Hao Ming, not physically but mentally
Every time Hao Ming tried to shoot an arrow to kill an animal or captives, Hao Jiazhi also shoots his arrow same time against Hao Mings arrow
Making sure that Hao Ming gets no-kill
But he wasn't just satisfied with making him unable to get any kill but rather Hao Jiazhi wanted to just mess him up
Hao Jiazhi always aimed near the head of Hao Ming, no matter how guarded he was by his servants, and made sure that it passed through him and not hurt him
And it kept on going
In the end, Hao Jiazhi took all the captives with him so that Hao Ming just won't get anything in the end (he also took the cure of poison)
Present time-
"hahahahaaaaa….. He is still a kid" Song Xia laughed to her heart's content as she heard about her son's deed
She wasn't worried about the money her son used on her behalf, she is a millionaire or maybe billionaire, rather she is happy as her son seems to have more skills than she had thought
Aiming at the head of Hao Ming and make sure that it only passed by without hurting him and that too with all the guards around…
Not something that can be pulled by anyone or someone with just experience or skills.
Song Xia, in her happy tone, told her attendant to pay 30 million for the purchase her son made and also give him the finest medical ointment they have
The attendant did what she told
Nigh time-
Hao Jiazhi took his cloth off (shirt) and sat on his bed as Han Yachun came with the medical herbs (liquid form)
It wasn't her first time to see Hao Jiazhi naked as she lives in the same room as Hao Jiazhi but
It is her first time to see him get hurt and also the first time that someone tried to save her by putting themself on the line
Hao Jiazhi don't need a reason to do something, he saved her because she is her loyal subject and she has shown her loyalty various time
And also, because he had invested his own time in training her, he doesn't want her to die till he doesn't find any substitute
Han Yachun came near Hao Jiazhi with ointment and slowly-slowly spread it on the wound
Her face is all red right now as her heartbeat goes faster and faster

Race to the
Throne
Chapter 22: Start the game
The only reason why Hao Jiazhi saved these 30 captives is that he wanted to irritate Hao Ming and make sure he doesn't win no matter how hard he tried
Present story-
3 months passed by since New Year came and finally, Hao Jiazhi's new house had been fully built
Before going back home, Hao Jiazhi clearly stated that Duan Yin will be the taking the head maid or head servants position, who will take care of everything that goes inside the house
And Hao Jiazhi will stay as his attendant who will represent him and she will be the one governing everything related to him which includes his own safety
Hao Jiazhi's guards and bodyguards didn't like this as this gave a female, its old-time so for sure there is some discrimination, much higher position than a male
Something they all hated but didn't do much after the one shout of Hoa Jiazhi, they all agreed as a loyal dog
At Hao Jiazhi's newly built mansion-
Hao Jiazhi bought the land/property around his house and made his personal space much bigger than before
His mansion now has a tall boundary wall and also space above those walls for guards to look around and keep an eye outside
Inside-
The moment they all entered this new place, the first thing the saw was a big courtyard on the left side and at the right side was a small garden which had various flowers and cherry trees
At the end of the courtyard was a small water stream that separates the courtyard and the main house
The first building that can be seen the moment you enter, is the entrance hall or place where all the guests will be called and all the meetings will be done their
And then at its side are more rooms, the right side has a small open shed which is created to look at the garden and the left side is an alleyway type hall that leads to the main rooms
Keep going left and you will see one more time a garden-like open area or the backyard
And there is the main stuff
Kitchen is at the right side with guest rooms and at the left side is Hao Jiazhi's main master bedroom with attached study room and bathroom also
At the corner of the property is the storage room where all staff will be kept
But things haven't ended yet as the left side property is interconnected with this property, as that is the place for maids and servants and also the place which will have stable for Hao Jiazhi's horse and chariots
"It's worth it" Hao Jiazhi said as he looks at his 50miilion Ban Liang house, it is not 50 million ban liang just to build this stuff and buying new lands
But because there are some hidden underground rooms also, a place where Hao Jiazhi will hide his black money
Actually, it will be wrong to call this house a mansion, but rather it should be called a fortress as this place will be his ultimate base from where he will operate everything
And now that he has a number of servants, it's time to train them all so they could be a good meat shield in the time of needs
Also, his master bedroom also has a small attached room with a bed. This is where Han Yachun will live
"Starting from tomorrow, you all will receive training. All of you can leave" Hao Jiazhi said to his servants
All those servants that came with him, captives, became joyous after knowing that they will have their life saved and now have job
All of them explored the new mansion and know what is where
"Come with me" Hao Jiazhi told Han Yachun
She followed him
Following him, she reached Hao Jiazhi's room and then she came near a large Wardrobe where various types of clothes were put
She looked at Hao Jiazhi and Hao Jiazhi pointed at the wardrobe
With confusion she nodded and looked at the wardrobe, then she said "Nice clothes"
"Pull out the last shelf from the corner area" Hao Jiazhi told her in an angry tone
It seems like she didn't get what he wanted to say
She nodded in embarrassment and then pulled out the corner shelf; it was a normal shelf and nothing else
Hao Jiazhi then puts his hand inside the empty place where the shelf was, and there he grabs something and pulled it out
Han Yachun don't know what he is pulling but soon she realizes that one of the 5 wardrobes is starting to move and soon the whole wardrobe that was held by Hao Jiazhi moved towards the front
"Go in" Hao Jiazhi told her
Han Yachun knew that this is the hidden base Hao Jiazhi was talking about and went inside with her face in front
The space to enter the hidden base is not big, you have to jump in
Inside, it was a small tunnel-like space where you have to crawl as the light (fire sticks or light sticks are around) leads you somewhere else
Hao Jiazhi, before entering the tunnel came up and pulled a metal chain that pulled back the whole wardrobe and also the shelf back to its place
To move out, there is a leaver inside the tunnel that will push the whole wardrobe
Crossing the tunnel, they finally came into a big hall like space through a wall
And there she saw various rooms and empty boxes around the hall
"This is my operation base, from where I will operate and hide all my money. The reason why I am showing you all this is because I believe that you won't betray me… still if you betray me then… You know what will happen" Hao Jiazhi said to her
Han Yachun smiled and said "Don't worry; I won't betray you as you have given me a reason to live. Today people bow their heads to me because they know that I am your servant. I am really happy for what you have done for me so far"
Hao Jiazhi nodded and then looked at the empty boxes
With a smile, he said "I guess it's time to start the game"
