Zongwu: Eavesdropping on the inner voices, the female warriors have become strange

Mu Nianci: ...

Huang Rong:......

Chen Liu quickly vanished with a fleeting move of the Lingbo Weibu. Just as Mu Nianci was about to quietly follow him, a woman suddenly appeared in front of her. In the moonlight, Mu Nianci was shocked to find her incredibly beautiful. She was about to take a defensive stance when the woman whispered, "Shut up! You should be able to hear... what he's saying, right?"

Huang Rong heaved a sigh of relief when she discovered that she and Mu Nianci were also able to hear Chen Liu's inner thoughts. Mu Nianci had discovered that she couldn't tell anyone else about her ability to hear Chen Liu's inner thoughts, and Huang Rong had naturally discovered it too. She also discovered that it was okay to discuss this with those who could hear Chen Liu's inner thoughts.

"You..." Mu Nianci was even more shocked.

"Don't worry, I can hear you too. My name is Huang Rong," Huang Rong said.

"Are you Huang Rong?" Mu Nianci couldn't help but raise her voice twice.

"Keep your voice down." Huang Rong glanced around cautiously. Seeing nothing, she breathed a sigh of relief and asked, "Do you want others to know?"

"Did you hear that just now?" Mu Nianci lowered her voice.

"I heard." Huang Rong carefully examined Mu Nianci for a moment, especially her chest, pausing for more than two seconds. She couldn't help but feel a little jealous. Although Mu Nianci's face was a little dusty, she was still a first-class beauty. If she dressed up and took care of her skin, she would be only slightly inferior to her. But her breasts, hips, and slender waist were much better than hers. She was simply a model of a well-nourished woman with sufficient milk. No wonder Chen Liu couldn't stop thinking about her. "You are not Qin Nanqin, but Mu Nianci, right?"

"How do you know..." Mu Nianci blurted out, then quickly realized what was going on and felt a little embarrassed.

"Don't worry about how I know, I just know you're Mu Nianci." Huang Rong thought to herself: Do I have to tell you I'm lying to you? Who told you to be so stupid?

Huang Rong finally regained a sense of superiority in her heart.

"Well, I want to go to Prince Zhao's mansion to confirm whether my step-mother is still alive." Mu Nianci said in a low voice.

"I'm going with you. I'm worried about that guy," Huang Rong complained. "If he gets caught with Mei Ruohua, oh, Mei Chaofeng, I'll have to cover for him."

"Do you like him?" Mu Nianci asked in a low voice.

"No, I don't like him." Huang Rong's face suddenly became expressionless. "I hate him. That guy is always self-righteous, arrogant, conceited, bad-tempered, and has a weird temper. He likes to play tricks on people, is hypocritical, and is lustful!"

Huang Rong advised earnestly, "In short, he has many shortcomings. You'd better not like him, otherwise you will definitely not be able to stand him in the future."

Mu Nianci: ...

Is it because I've fallen for Chen Liu, but I'm deliberately saying such bad things about him to make her hate him? Don't think I haven't drunk anything before? Oh! By the way, don't think I'm stupid just because I haven't drunk honey water. This damn girl is very bad!

Although Qin Nanqin was very beautiful, which made Chen Liu feel stunned, Chen Liu did not care, so he left without hesitation. In the world of Zongwu, there are so many beautiful female heroes and witches. Isn’t Mu Nianci attractive? Isn’t Zhong Ling attractive? Isn’t Lin Shiyin attractive? Isn’t Xiao Zhao attractive? Isn’t Shuang’er attractive? Isn’t Wang Yuyan attractive again? As for Huang Rong, that smart girl, forget it. Chen Liu felt that he might not be able to beat her. There were also Yaoyue and Lianxing. Lianxing was okay, but Yaoyue’s possessiveness was too strong, even more cruel than Huang Rong. If she couldn’t get it, she would destroy it. She could only be admired from afar and not be played with.

He quietly came to Prince Zhao's mansion and observed carefully for more than a quarter of an hour. When a team of patrolling guards had just passed by, Chen Liu quietly climbed over the front door, crossed the Ruili Gate, and walked directly to the backyard of the mansion by walking on the wall and eaves.

The Zhao Palace was so vast that even those who had lived there year-round might not know the way around. They needed to find someone familiar to ask. But who did Chen Liu know in the Zhao Palace? So he thought of Bao Xiruo. He could reveal information about Yang Tiexin, and Bao Xiruo would surely be willing to tell him the layout of the Zhao Palace. He could then find Mei Chaofeng and obtain the precious snake. As for Bao Xiruo, he would let her find a way out on her own, and then take her to find Yang Tiexin. Then she would be reunited with her best friend, and he could take Miss Nianci away with him. Wouldn't that be wonderful?

"But Bao Xiruo doesn't necessarily know where Mei Chaofeng is. Only Yang Kang knows that." Chen Liu thought to himself, "It seems Mei Chaofeng is hiding under a dry well. That's right, let's look for a dry well. Although there are many wells in the Zhao Palace, there probably won't be many wells, and even fewer dry wells. Maybe Bao Xiruo knows where there is a dry well. Even if she doesn't know, we can still ask!"

Chen Liu quietly entered the palace's backyard, but it was so vast that he had to search stealthily while constantly dodging patrolling guards. After searching for over half an hour, he finally found three small, black-tiled, white-walled houses surrounded by a bamboo fence. These were ordinary homes from the southern countryside, and they didn't fit in with the overall style of the Zhao Palace.

Seeing the three small, black-tiled houses, Chen Liu knew he had found his place. There was a light inside, so Chen Liu quietly walked to a window and peeked in. He saw that the items inside were tattered and the house looked a bit old. A middle-aged woman sat at a table, carefully wiping an iron spear with a cloth. The woman was less than forty years old, with a beautiful appearance. She wore no makeup and only coarse cloth. Although the woman was poorly dressed, it was still difficult to hide her beauty. The melancholy look on her face added a touch of melancholy beauty to her, making her look even more pitiful.

When Chen Liu saw the beautiful woman, he knew that this person must be Bao Xiruo, and thought to himself: No wonder Wanyan Honglie wanted to kill Yang Tiexin and Guo Xiaotian for her. Tsk tsk, if it weren’t for... cough cough, I don’t love Cao Ze!

Chapter 80 Bao Xiruo (Part )

Bao Xiruo wiped the iron spear carefully. Although there was no dust on the iron spear, she still wiped it very carefully. After wiping it two or three times, she put the iron spear back to its original position and sighed softly.

"No matter how clean you wipe the iron spear, you can't wipe away the dust in your heart, right?" After carefully checking the area and finding that there was no one nearby, Chen Liu returned to the hut and said leisurely to Bao Xiruo.

"Who?" Bao Xiruo was shocked.

"Don't shout, I mean no harm." Chen Liu slowly walked into the cabin from the main entrance.

"Who are you? No matter who you are, you'd better leave quickly. If you are discovered by the people in the palace, you will be dead." Bao Xiruo said.

"Me!" Chen Liu looked at the furnishings in the house, and couldn't help but feel a little emotional in his heart that Bao Xiruo really loved Yang Tiexin. All the furnishings in this house were brought back by her from Niujiazhuang in Lin'an, and although she was already a princess, she still lived in these three small houses to reminisce about the past. Personality determines destiny. Bao Xiruo was born with a beautiful face and a kind heart. She was reluctant to kill the chickens and ducks raised in her family, so that they all lived to a ripe old age. This sentence also pointed out the characteristics of Bao Xiruo's character. Even if it was Chen Liu who suddenly appeared, and she didn't know whether he had malicious intentions or not, she couldn't bear to hurt him.

"My name is Saito Asuka, ah, Tianshan Asuka!"

Bao Xiruo: ...

You can tell it's fake the moment you hear the name.

"By the way, I also know Li Ping and Guo Jing."

"You..." Bao Xiruo stared at Chen Liu for a long moment, her lips trembling a few times. She asked in a trembling voice, "You, you know Sister Ping, and her son Guo Jing? Is it a son?"

"I know him!" Chen Liu nodded.

"They, they..." Bao Xiruo was very excited. She took a deep breath and wanted to ask something but didn't know where to start.

"Are they okay?"

"I'm feeling fine. I feel healthy and everything I eat tastes delicious."

Bao Xiruo was originally very excited, but was suddenly speechless after hearing Chen Liu's teasing.

"And your husband Yang Tiexin is not dead? Over the years, he has been wandering around the martial arts world, looking for you everywhere. Are you surprised? Are you surprised?" Chen Liu said with a malicious smile.

Bao Xiruo sank down on the chair, even more excited than before. Tears kept streaming down her face as she murmured, "Brother Tie! Brother Tie!"

After a while, Bao Xiruo looked up at Chen Liu with tears in her eyes and asked excitedly, "Brother Tie, how is he?"

"Now, he has become an old man with gray hair and a weathered face." Chen Liu thought for a while and said.

"Brother Tie, Brother Tie!"

"Don't cry out loud! Do you want to attract people?"

Bao Xiruo quickly covered her mouth, suppressed her voice, and cried heart-wrenchingly. It was only because she covered her mouth that she cried in a sobbing voice.

"Take me away, take me to find Tie Ge, I'll promise you anything!"

Chen Liu looked at Bao Xiruo's tearful face and couldn't help but sigh inwardly, saying, "That's not the right thing to say. It's like the Japanese saying, 'Madam, you don't want your husband to know, do you?' It's the easiest to cause misunderstanding."

Bao Xiruo: ...

"It's not impossible for me to take you to find your husband," Chen Liu said. "I can even tell you who harmed your family and the Guo family back then. However, I came to Prince Zhao's mansion for another matter. I need to finish my business before I can take you to find your husband. Oh, by the way, congratulations, you have a daughter."

Bao Xiruo: ...

"Brother Tie, Brother Tie, has he remarried?"

"Oh, sorry, it's my adopted daughter."

Bao Xiruo: ...

Why does this guy have such a bad character? He looks very good, but he has a mouth that makes Bao Xiruo, who is weak and kind, want to tear his mouth apart.

"Have you calmed down from your excitement?"

"You..." Bao Xiruo looked up at Chen Liu, surprised, and said, "Are you talking like this on purpose to distract me?"

"What else can I do? With your personality, you cry at the slightest provocation. I'm worried that your crying will attract the attention of the servants in Prince Zhao's mansion! I can't beat them now."

All right! Bao Xiruo was speechless. Although this person's words were a bit off-key, his method seemed good.

"Um, can you tell me about Brother Tie and Sister Ping?"

"Your best friend should have arrived in Jin Dadu by now, or almost there, right? As for Li Ping, I met her and her son in Yuan territory. She's doing well now, and her son, Guo Jing, is the consort of the Yuan Khan. By the way, do you have any dry wells in your Zhao Palace?"

Bao Xiruo: ...

Bao Xiruo felt a little tired talking to Chen Liu, as she could hardly keep up with his pace.

"There's one by the wall on the other side of the rockery."

"Very good. By the way, do you know where the guest official who recently took refuge at Prince Zhao's palace is staying?"

"I'm not sure, but I heard from my son that he seems to live in Tianxiangyuan."

"Where is Tianxiang Garden?"

"Go east from here, then south at the second fork in the road. Go east again at three forks, then north at another fork, and then go up four forks..."

Bao Xiruo kept talking in a rambling way, which made Chen Liu's head a little confused. He quickly stopped her and said, "Do you have paper and pen here? Can you draw it?"

"Yes, yes, yes!" Bao Xiruo nodded quickly. Unlike Li Ping, who was born into a peasant family and was not beautiful, Bao Xiruo belonged to the intellectual class. She was the daughter of a failed scholar and a teacher. Not only was she beautiful, she had also learned calligraphy from her father since childhood. She had paper and pen, so she quickly took out paper and pen and drew a rough map of Tianxiang Garden for Chen Liu. She even included the dry well and the general layout of the Prince of Zhao's palace that she knew.

Chen Liu took the sketch and looked at it carefully. With this sketch, he knew where to find Mei Chaofeng and Liang Ziweng. Chen Liu actually had a very good memory. He memorized the layout on the sketch in just a few glances. Moreover, he had Qinggong skills and could fly high and low, so he didn't need to go around in circles like Bao Xiruo said to reach Tianxiang Garden.

"Are there any famous temples outside Jin Dadu?" Chen Liu lit the sketch on the candle on the table and threw it into the plate for burning paper money under the altar used to worship ancestors.

"Lingguang Temple." Bao Xiruo was stunned for a moment and said quickly.

"Have you been there?" Chen Liu asked, clapping his hands lightly.

"I've been there a few times." Bao Xiruo said.

"Okay, then, let's do these two days, three days! After three days, find an excuse to go to Lingguang Temple to fulfill your vow. I'll then try to find Yang Tiexin and bring him to you. If I haven't found Yang Tiexin yet, I'll tell you."

"I understand." Bao Xiruo was so excited that she nodded repeatedly.

Chapter 81 Bao Xiruo (Part )

Mu Nianci, who was hiding outside and eavesdropping on Chen Liu's conversation with Bao Xiruo and their inner thoughts, originally wanted to secretly take Bao Xiruo away. However, when she heard Chen Liu asking Bao Xiruo to go to Lingguang Temple to burn incense in three days, she felt that this decision was better.

Even if she takes Bao Xiruo away now, she can't leave Jin Dadu. The city gates are closed at night. When the Zhao Palace finds out Bao Xiruo is missing tomorrow morning, there will be chaos. They will send people to guard the city gates and send soldiers to search everywhere. It will be difficult for them to escape from Jin Dadu then. It doesn't even need to wait until tomorrow morning. It is very likely that the Zhao Palace will find out that the princess is missing tonight, and then they will be even more unable to escape. But let Bao Xiruo go to Lingguang Temple to burn incense by herself. Lingguang Temple is outside the city of Dadu, and there are still three days to prepare. As long as they pick up Bao Xiruo and run back to the Song Dynasty, what can Wanyan Honglie do to them? As for her adopted brother Yang Kang, according to Chenliu, he is reluctant to give up his wealth and glory. He will definitely not go with them and may even betray them. It is better not to tell him for the time being.

Mu Nianci unconsciously felt convinced by Chen Liu, so she did not oppose Chen Liu's decision.

Huang Rong also admired Chen Liu very much. Letting Bao Xiruo walk out of Dadu by herself would be much easier than for them to rescue her. Even if Bao Xiruo would inevitably bring Jin soldiers with her, dealing with those Jin soldiers would be better than dealing with Wanyan Honglie's pursuit.

"You absolutely cannot tell your son about this, understand?" Chen Liu thought to himself, "With Qin Nanqin's strength, she shouldn't be able to kill Yang Kang. If she does, forget it. But if she doesn't, I can't tell him for the time being. I'm afraid Yang Kang will do something bad."

Listening to Chen Liu's inner voice, Mu Nianci felt a little annoyed. Knowing that she couldn't kill Yang Kang, he still asked her to kill him? Isn't this harming her? Well, Chen Liu really thought that she was Qin Nanqin who was raped by Yang Kang.

"Why?" Bao Xiruo asked.

"You haven't told your son his last name is Yang yet, right?" Chen Liu saw that Bao Xiruo had been gone for so long and hadn't even given him a glass of water, so he could only go to the table and get an upside-down teacup, turn it over, and pick up the teapot on the table to pour tea.

"I'll do it, I'll do it." Seeing this, Bao Xiruo hurried to pour tea for Chen Liu. She was so excited when she heard that her husband Yang Tiexin and Pingjie Guo Jing were both alive that she forgot to pour tea for Chen Liu.

"I've already poured it."

Bao Xiruo: ...

After a long pause, Bao Xiruo said, "Not yet. I want to wait until Kang'er comes of age before telling him."

"You're so educated!" Chen Liu sipped his tea and couldn't help but grumble, "Haven't you heard it's easy to go from frugality to extravagance, but hard to go from extravagance to frugality? He's been the Crown Prince of Zhao for so many years, and now you suddenly tell him he's just a farmer's son. How can he accept it? On one side is wealth and splendor, surrounded by beautiful maids, surrounded by people and flattered by everyone. On the other side is working in the fields, bent over, and a copper coin is split in two. What do you think he will choose?"
