To be honest, if he didn't know the princess's identity, he would really mistake her for a Taoist priest, or rather, an elderly man.

Xiao Tang's voice is so convincing.

The door was opened.

The servant who opened the door gave the Taoist priest outside the door a strange look.

The old Taoist priest with the long beard behind him looked quite convincing, but this one in front of me...?

He looks like a con artist.

Xiao Tang's Taoist robe was a rather bright color, a golden hue that was particularly dazzling in the sunlight.

Her long hair was held up with a simple hairpin, and her face was fair and clean...

He didn't look like a Taoist priest; he looked more like a pale-faced male prostitute who had escaped from a brothel.

Xiao Tang's face was also chosen at the last minute.

She had previously exchanged quite a few disguise masks with this damn system.

Because she was in a hurry to go in, she didn't choose anything.

Now, being stared at so brazenly by this servant, she thickened her skin and said, "Hurry up and let me into the mansion, otherwise, if things go wrong, can you take responsibility?"

Hearing Xiao Tang's rebuke, the servant was stunned and immediately turned around and ran into the palace.

"Your Highness, two swindlers have come outside, saying that our manor is in danger of bloodshed."

The servant shouted as he ran.

He was afraid Xiao Tang wouldn't hear him.

Xiao Tang: ?

[Get lost! How do I look like a conman? Have you ever seen a 'conman' as upright and serious as me? You have no discernment; no wonder the servant has squinty eyes.]

Yan Shi was speechless.

He rubbed his forehead.

Embarrassing.

As he stayed by the princess's side, he seemed to gradually come to realize some things...

There will definitely be more embarrassing things like this while following the princess, and there will be no shortage of them!

You'll get used to it; take it easy.

Soon, the King of Yue appeared.

Although he was three years younger than the late emperor, he was still quite healthy and strode over with a stern face.

"Where did this scammer come from?"

Although he claimed to be a fraudster, he actually still wanted to come and meet him.

Try anything, even if it seems hopeless.

Perhaps there is a way.

These days, his household is in turmoil, making it difficult for him to eat or sleep.

If things continue like this, he will also follow his brother to the afterlife.

When he saw Xiao Tang and Yan Shi with a stern face, he frowned and immediately wanted to scold them away.

[Hey, hey, hey, the King of Yue and the late emperor don't look alike at all!]

The late emperor possessed none of the refined air that the Prince of Yue had.

Xiao Tang smiled politely: "Your Highness, I foresaw that your palace would suffer a bloody disaster, so I came here to help you out of your predicament. Why are you still so rude to me?"

"Where did this swindler come from?" King Yue didn't believe it.

Just as he was about to scold the servant and send the person away...

"Wait." Just then, a low, cold male voice slowly rang out.

Xiao Tang and Yan Shi were very familiar with this magnetic subwoofer!

Ah~~ He's here, he's here! He's coming with his deep bass!

Xiao Tang's eyes lit up when she heard the man's voice. She looked at the man with a hint of joy.

fine.

We found him!

[Oh, you big villain! I've finally found you! You've really broken my heart, sob sob sob. You left without saying goodbye, completely disregarding my hopes of having a relationship with you.]

The man, tall and elegant, stood beside the King of Yue, his black robes fluttering gently.

His long, silver hair fell down, and he seemed to glance at Xiao Tang casually, a half-smile flashing in his eyes.

"Brother, do you recognize this person?" the King of Yue asked, puzzled.

After all, how could the Regent possibly recognize this charlatan?

Although he didn't see Xiao Tang use his true skills, he was convinced that Xiao Tang was a fraud.

Di Jingling gave a deep "hmm": "That's right, I recognize this Master Tang."

After speaking, he turned to look at Xiao Tang: "Master Tang, you have come all this way, may I ask what brings you here?"

Good heavens...

I suspect you're acting against my will?

Is this how I usually act?

Xiao Tang could only awkwardly smile and explain, "Yes, yes, I've had nothing to do lately, and I just happened to foresee the bloodshed at the Yue Prince's Mansion, so I thought... saving a life is better than building a seven-story pagoda."

[I didn't really want to pull this stunt, but since the main villain said so, I had no choice but to go along with it!]

Di Jingling raised an eyebrow and glanced at Yan Shi without making a sound.

certainly……

My gaze fell on the feather duster in his hand.

Yan Shi hugged the feather duster, wanting to cry.

At this moment, he really wanted to dig a hole and crawl into it.

Xiao Tang then said, "Your Highnesses, I am here to do good deeds and I do not accept any money. Why don't you let me give it a try? What do you think?"

She gave a strange smile.

His unfathomable appearance made him seem like a Taoist priest with real skills.

The King of Yue kept observing Di Jingling's expression, and he seemed to have noticed that Di Jingling and this Master Tang seemed to be quite familiar with each other.

Since that's the case...

Should he take it for now?

“Brother, since this is a master you know, please invite him into the mansion for a seat. Tonight’s headless monster depends on you, Master.”

Xiao Tang, maintaining her air of a master, slowly nodded.

It seems there really is a headless monster?

...

They were arranged to rest in a separate courtyard.

Yan Shicai said, "Your Highness, this headless monster is said to really eat people."

"Um……"

"They specifically target fair-skinned, clean-cut young girls."

Xiao Tang rested her chin on one hand and said, "Tell me, since it's headless, how does it eat people? Is its head and tail reversed compared to a normal person?"
