Chapter Ninety-Four: The Prince
Chu Xiaoxiang asked for a plate of melon seeds, and sighed while knocking, the conditions here are relatively too relaxed for women, and they are tightly bound for men, but it is really interesting to say, this storyteller is obviously helping the prince, and every word is saying good things about the prince.
Ye Yuntian didn't know when he had come over, and he happened to be sitting next to him, if it was Mu Xun who was the busiest now, he would be busy with the handover of the two countries all day long, as well as the official transactions between the two countries, so he was dealing with those officials all day long, Ye Yuntian himself was a person in the rivers and lakes, so he was not bound by these things.
"You're in the mood, since it's so easy to find such a place, and no one told me when you two came out."
Chu Xiaoxiang threw the eaten peanut shells into his bowl, deliberately not wanting him to drink water.
"I'm the master of Tianji Pavilion, and I also spent money to buy this tea, you don't want to drink it for nothing without spending a penny, isn't it a bit too much?"
"Bringing you so much important news, not only do you not appreciate me, but you are here to talk to me about money, if you really want to talk about it, I'm afraid you will have to look for me!"
Hearing this, Chu Xiaoxiang didn't say anything more, but talked about the prince, and now he is more and more curious about this prince.
"This prince seems to be very loved by the people, what did he do? Why is everyone so good to him, and those people in the White Sect, I think it seems to have something to do with this prince? ”
"Don't you know? The prince didn't know who he had listened to, but he actually said that men and women were equal! It's a big taboo here, and of course the Empress won't allow him to come out! ”
Chu Xiaoxiang's eyes widened involuntarily after hearing this, with a hint of surprise on her face, she didn't seem to expect this to be the case, she had thought about it a lot, but she probably didn't expect this to be the case, but when she thought of this, he couldn't help frowning, she was now basically sure that there was really a traverser on this road, because she had heard a lot of news during this time, but everyone said that these buildings in Yue Guo were learned from Ji Guo.
Could it be that this crown prince is a traverser, otherwise how could he suddenly propose equality between men and women, but thinking about it, I feel that something is wrong, he is the prince of a country, if it is really a traverser, then the country of Yue has already become strong, and it will definitely not be like now, he can only seek refuge in other countries, and he has never caused trouble.
"In this way, this prince is still a relatively interesting person, but I don't know when I will have the opportunity to meet him, but I still want to get to know him."
"I estimate that you will have a chance soon, as far as I know, new evidence has been found in the matter of the prince's rebellion, and it is currently under investigation, it is not clear whether the matter is true or false, but it seems that someone should be behind it to help the crown prince prove his innocence."
Chu Xiaoxiang's first thought was Feng Yiyang, because Feng Yiyang seemed to care about the crown prince very much, and the relationship between the two was quite good.
A person in the teahouse listened to the storyteller say these words, and after listening to it for a while, he felt bored, so he simply went out, Ye Yuntian suddenly came to Chu Xiaoxiang, and there was a hint of ridicule in his tone.
"For the sake of cooperation between the two countries, you can temporarily reach a contractual relationship with Feng Yiyang, why didn't you think about cooperating with me, obviously you can get more benefits by cooperating with me."
"That's different, Feng Yiyang doesn't have any thoughts about me, unlike you who don't have the right mind."
After Chu Xiaoxiang finished speaking, he didn't say anything more, Feng Yiyang shook his head helplessly, watching Helian Chen take Chu Xiaoxiang into his arms, his eyes flickered slightly, and he seemed to be a little unwilling, if he had met Chu Xiaoxiang earlier, he would definitely be standing next to Chu Xiaoxiang now, not another man.
"You'd better be calm in the near future, as far as I know, a lot of people have come here, all of them are lurking in the capital of the Yue Kingdom, and I heard that many people are still from the rivers and lakes."
"Even if those people from the rivers and lakes come, it has nothing to do with me, including the matter of the prince's rehabilitation, I heard that it is getting worse and worse in the court now."
Chu Xiaoxiang bought some food from the stall next to him, these things are not common in the palace, although they are not exquisite, but they have a unique flavor, and the food of this Yue country is a little different from their country, so Chu Xiaoxiang is very interested.
"It's delicious, and it tastes good."
Helian Chen nodded and tasted it, a smile appeared on his face, and after they took a few steps forward, they saw a person rushing out in a panic, with a frightened expression on his face, and then quickly rushed to Helian Chen's face.
"Help me!"
Helian Chen took precautions for the first time, and subconsciously protected Chu Xiaoxiang behind him, the expression on his face was a little ugly, I don't know why this person suddenly rushed out, and thought he was an assassin, but after a while, he found that he didn't do too much, so he was slightly relieved.
"Who are you? Why is it here all of a sudden? ”
"I met someone who was chasing me, please help me!"
Helian Chen raised his head and saw a few black-clothed people in the alley not far away, seemingly preparing to come, but seeing that there were so many people here, he immediately retreated two steps.
Helian Chen's frowns, subconsciously conspired about this matter, and always felt that it was not very simple, why did this person suddenly rush out to stop them, so many people on the street did not ask for help from others, but asked them for help, and what is the identity of these people in black.
Chu Xiaoxiang didn't move for a while, just glanced at it curiously, and then asked in a low voice.
"You said they were chasing you, why should they be chasing you?"
The people around him had already begun to retreat, afraid of being implicated and getting into trouble, when they heard these words at this time, they looked curiously, Chu Xiaoxiang didn't say anything, just looked at the man in front of him.
"Because I have the prince in my hand, and there is no evidence of rebellion, the prince was framed, so someone wants to kill me after knowing about it, and now the evidence is ......"
Chu Xiaoxiang's eyes widened in surprise, and before he could finish speaking, he saw a sharp sword suddenly fly over and plunge directly into his chest, causing him to spit out a mouthful of blood, and then his pupils dilated, and the whole person fell to the ground silently.
All this happened too fast, and when Helian Chen came to his senses, on the roof in the distance, a black figure ran away quickly, Ye Yuntian hurriedly chased after him, after all, he had to catch someone, otherwise this matter would easily affect them, although the other party did not finish speaking, but what should have been said has basically been said, the prince's rebellion was framed by others, this person did not ask others for help but came to them, and now they have been involved, if they can't solve it well.
Maybe even they will be suspicious, Helian Chen frowned slightly, he knew that he should have killed all this person directly just now, and there would not be so much trouble, Chu Xiaoxiang frowned slightly, and there was a little doubt in his heart, no matter how you look at this matter, it is not a coincidence, but it seems to be instructed by others, otherwise why would this person ask them for help.
Ye Yuntian came back after a while, obviously the other party was very good, and he was very familiar with the terrain of the surrounding place, so he disappeared after a while.
"I don't know where people go, obviously he is very familiar with this part of Kyoto, otherwise he wouldn't be able to run so fast under my nose, I can be sure that he should be from the capital."
Chu Xiaoxiang stretched out his hand and rubbed his head, the people around him had long been afraid of retreating, and after finding out that the person was dead, they all gathered around and pointed at the people on the ground, what this person said just now, all the people around him heard it.
"I have a bad premonition, I always feel that someone seems to want to drag us into the water, and now even if we want to ignore this matter, it is not easy to guess it, and the main thing now is how to get rid of this trouble."
As he was talking, several patrolling people happened to have patrolled here, and after discovering the situation, they hurriedly surrounded him.
"Hurry up and inform your lordship that someone here has been assassinated."
Soon a woman general walked over, she was in charge of supervising the patrol, and she was relatively safe in the capital, but she didn't expect someone to be shot and killed on the street.
This is something that happened within her jurisdiction, so if a generation of empresses investigate, even she will not escape the questioning, thinking of this, a frown flashed in her eyes.
"What are you still doing in a daze, hurry up and introduce me to this matter, what is going on, why can you still encounter such a situation when you are patrolling the streets, and no one has heard a movement before?"
The people around him all lowered their heads, didn't say a word, and let him lose his temper, and after he finished speaking, the other party raised his head and saw Chu Xiaoxiang, and after recognizing Chu Xiaoxiang's identity, he immediately said with some respect.
"I didn't expect Princess Chu to be here, I don't know what happened just now, please let Her Royal Highness the princess know, and I can also investigate this matter carefully."
Chu Xiaoxiang I heard him say this, so I had to roughly explain the cause and effect of the matter, and said that he was just coming to walk around the street, but he didn't expect to encounter such a situation, reaching out and touching his chest, making a frightened appearance.
"I originally thought it would be relatively safe in the capital, but I didn't expect such a thing to happen in the capital, it's so scary that I shot him in the street."
After hearing this, the other party looked a little embarrassed, after all, Chu Xiaoxiang is from another country, this can be regarded as a scandal for them to cross the country, and it can be regarded as a situation caused by lax management.
