The Princess Seeks Money: The Empress of the Unparalleled Kingdom

Chapter 179 A Competent Subordinate

Shang Huaisu smiled lightly and said: "There is no impenetrable wall in the world. Sooner or later, especially when Mu Yunxi is going to fight for you again, it is normal for news to leak out."

Although Shang Huaisu said that the matter had nothing to do with him, Jiang Duruo still understood that if Shang Huaisu hadn't secretly let people release the news, this kind of secret matter involving the general situation of the country would definitely be hidden, so now Everyone knew about this incident, and Shang Huaisu's hands and feet must have been indispensable.

"What do you want to do?" Jiang Duruo couldn't help but asked in a deep voice, "Are you afraid that the general situation in this world is not chaotic enough?"

Shang Huaisu suddenly fell silent, and after a while he slowly raised his head, met Jiang Duruo's gaze, and said word by word: "I just want to find my wife back and let Mu Yunxi know that if he insists on going his own way, That is to be the enemy of this world!"

Jiang Duruo was shocked, and suddenly felt short of breath. Just now, when she learned that Shang Huaisu had participated in the spread of the news, her first reaction was that this was a game between Shang Huaisu and Mu Yunxi. All to win the world.

But Shang Huaisu's words just now made Jiang Duruo suddenly understand that she underestimated Shang Huaisu, and also ignored his full of worries and determination to take her back.

Jiang Duruo was a little embarrassed, she subconsciously picked up the tea bowl in front of her and took a sip of tea, complaining in her heart: "Damn old Mr. Zhao, why haven't you got to the point! What the hell is he talking about!"

Seeing that Jiang Duruo lowered his head to avoid his gaze again, Shang Huaisu couldn't help sighing softly. It's like this every time. When it comes to the relationship between them, Jiang Duruo's first reaction will always be escape!

The atmosphere was a little awkward for a while.

Fortunately, the old Zhaotou, the storyteller, relieved the stagnation of confusion between them in time.

"You guys don't know, do you?" The old man stroked his beard triumphantly, and said with a smile, "I heard that His Royal Highness, the third prince of the Hua Kingdom, has come to the territory of our Xi Kingdom in order to get back Princess Qiru, but he disguised himself , and people from Xi Kingdom don’t recognize him, so no one knows about it, but you’re also surprised, maybe he’s sitting among us right now, listening to the story!”

Old Zhao's first words made all the guests burst into laughter.

Shang Huaisu rubbed his nose amusedly, he really didn't know whether to call this old Zhao head a clever plan, or a golden eloquence.

Jiang Duruo couldn't help but curled his lips into a smile, and said in a low voice, "Don't be guilty!"

Shang Huaisu said disapprovingly: "Ruo'er, you should know who is the thief."

Jiang Duruo choked on his words and couldn't continue, Shang Huaisu's mouth was really sharp, his seemingly random sentence was actually a pun.

One is to scold Mu Yunxi for being a thief who stole his wife, and the other is to imply that Jiang Duruo has stolen his heart.

Jiang Duruo didn't know how to respond, so he had to turn his face away and continue to listen to the old Zhao's story.

After Lao Zhao made a stunt, he saw that the crowd gradually quieted down, and continued: "Everyone, do you know why there are so many officers and soldiers in the city recently?"

"Could it be to catch the third prince of Huaguo?" Someone speculated.

Old Zhao shook his head and said with a smile, "No, but to find His Highness Hua and Princess Qiru."

"Princess Qi Ru? Didn't you just say that Princess Qi Ru was robbed by our national teacher? Why did you find Princess Qi Ru?" Someone asked in confusion.

Old Zhao raised his long gray eyebrows triumphantly, and said with a smile, "That's another thing I'm going to talk about next."

"The so-called beauties in the world are loved by heroes. Our national teacher Xi and the third prince of the Hua country are both dragons and phoenixes, talented people, so they naturally love beauties, and they both like the same beauty." , that is this Princess Qiru from Yu Country who is famous in Qingyue Continent."

"The national teacher robbed the princess, but because of Shang Huaisu's obstruction on the way, although the national teacher severely injured Shang Huaisu and killed almost all the people who brought him, the princess disappeared together with Shang Huaisu. That's why the National Teacher sent officers and soldiers to post notices to arrest Shang Huaisu and Princess Qi Ru."

Everyone in the lobby was dumbfounded. They didn't expect to hear such an exciting story in a small county town.

And Shang Huaisu and Jiang Duruo were also shocked. They didn't expect that in a small county town, someone could inquire about the news in such detail. After adding their own speculation, it was almost the same as the truth. Shock.

When Shang Huaisu and Jiang Duruo were still immersed in the shock of the old Zhaotou's story that was almost the same as the truth, the old Zhaotou continued: "And there is an even more shocking news. I heard that Princess Qiru is not She is a simple character, but she has countless talented people under her command, and the forces she cultivated secretly are also intricate."

"If you say that there is an extremely capable person under the princess, almost no one knows his true identity, and he is almost in charge of all the forces under the princess, but just a few days ago, the princess under the A capable subordinate was suddenly arrested by our national teacher."

Jiang Duruo's expression was shocked when he heard it. The capable subordinate Zhao said was clearly Mo Xi. The purpose of her coming here today was to inquire about Mo Xi's whereabouts. Xi was arrested, and immediately straightened her body, waiting for the next sentence.

Seeing everyone's ears pricked up to listen, the old man was all smiles, and said triumphantly, "Hey, how capable is this capable subordinate..."

Before Old Zhao Tou finished speaking, someone asked: "Old Zhao Tou, since this subordinate is so capable, how could he be arrested by the National Teacher?"

Old Zhao couldn't help but stop what he said just now, and said with a smile: "If a man makes a mistake, a horse will make a mistake. No matter how capable this person is, he must make a mistake sometimes! What's more, his master's whereabouts are unknown to the state teacher. Of course he was anxious, wouldn't something happen if he was anxious!"

"Old Zhao, continue!" Apparently, Jiang Duruo was not the only one who was anxious to listen to the following.

The old Zhao head continued: "However, this capable person naturally has his own strengths. Even if he was arrested by our national teacher, he didn't get much benefit. This person is sure that the national teacher wanted to catch Shang Huaisu and Princess Qi Ru, I can't kill him, so I made trouble for the national teacher when I got the chance, and in just a few days, the prison in Yucheng was turned upside down."

"First, all the death row prisoners ran away overnight, and then various crimes of robbery and murder occurred in Yucheng, so that the national teacher had to send people to find the whereabouts of Shang Huaisu and Jiang Duruo, but on the other hand, they only You can focus on stabilizing the security of Yucheng."
