The South City's richest Zhong family had doted on their beloved daughter for seventeen years, only to find they had doted on the wrong person!
Word had it that the true daughter, Kong Xi...
Chapter 247, Bishop Gwat
Gwart's smile was gentle and kind now. "Lady Saint, are you here to play Oliver Twist again?"
"You still have this hobby?" Kong Xiyan turned to look at Mo Ya and raised her eyebrows.
I was almost fooled by this unreliable girl again!
"What's with 'Oliver Twist'? This saint just wants to get something for nothing!" Mo Ya didn't seem embarrassed or awkward after being exposed. Instead, she had a carefree attitude as if nothing had happened.
You can tell at first glance that he is a habitual offender.
"My dear Prince Consort, Moya is making trouble, why are you joining her in making trouble?" Winnie walked towards Kong Xiyan, her words full of helplessness.
"What can I do? Mo Ya is the Saint Lady, of noble status." Kong Xiyan looked at Winnie and spread her hands pitifully: "If I leave Her Royal Highness the Princess in Xing Ertang, I will be nothing..."
"..." The corners of Winnie's mouth twitched. What tricks was Kong Xiyan going to play next?
Mo Ya also looked at Kong Xiyan with an expression as if she had seen a ghost. What is this devil trying to do?
"It seems that the prince consort has a very clear understanding of himself, which is very good." Bishop Gwat showed a benevolent smile on the side.
"I haven't asked for advice yet, this..." Kong Xiyan's gaze fell on Bishop Gewat's dangerous hairline: "This gentleman who looks very powerful is..."
"This is my sword master, the number one swordsman in Xing'ertang, and also the bishop of the Xing'ertang Church, Gwart." Winnie was even more confused about what Kong Xiyan was going to do.
Didn’t Kong Xiyan point at Bishop Gwat and ask her at the ball before?
"Oh! It turns out to be Bishop Gwat. I've heard from my cousin that Bishop Gwat is knowledgeable, wise, gentlemanly and polite." Kong Xiyan smiled and nodded.
"That cousin of the Prince Consort also left a good impression on me, but I haven't seen him much since then. He didn't come to the dance that day either. I wonder if something happened to him?"
"I'm telling you this in secret." Kong Xiyan looked around before lowering her voice, "My brother was assassinated before and almost died!"
"There's such a thing!" Winnie was stunned: "Is everything okay now?"
"He managed to survive, but his injuries haven't fully healed. If Xing Ertang's investment in China wasn't so important, he wouldn't have come this time."
Bishop Gwat's eyes sank slightly. He was still very confident in his skills. Being able to save Zhong Yongan's life from his hands was already Zhong Yongan's greatest limit.
"Two days ago, my eldest brother saw the person who hurt him in Xing'erqu. He fell ill as soon as he returned and has been unwilling to go out since then!" Kong Xiyan frowned: "If Xing'erqu had not been closed to external traffic during the Cultural Week, my brother would have run away long ago!"
Hearing Kong Xiyan's words, Bishop Gwat's heart sank, and murderous intent appeared in his eyes again. Under the wide cuffs of his robe, his hand wearing an emerald ring clenched into a fist.
If Zhong Yongan recognizes him, he can't stay!
"What? The person who assassinated your brother is also in Xing Ertang!" Mo Ya's eyes widened: "Who is it? Where is he? I'll take people to kill him right now!"
"Don't worry, I've already sent the person in." Kong Xiyan crossed her arms and said, "That person has a pair of fox eyes, so he's easy to recognize!
He is also a moron. He first went to assassinate my cousin.
Seeing that I became Xing Ertang's prince consort, he came to me and asked for cooperation?
Isn't this just seeking death?
I immediately contacted the guards and had him sent to prison. It would be terrible if such a dangerous person wandered around during Xing Er Tang Cultural Week and caused a disturbance!"
Hearing this, Bishop Gwat slowly stretched out his hand hidden under his robe.
He knew that the fox had come to Xingertang. It seemed that Zhong Yongan regarded the fox as the person who had assassinated him.
That's fine.
"Fortunately, he was caught." Winnie breathed a sigh of relief when she heard that. It would be terrible if such a dangerous person was left outside and hurt the innocent people in Xing'erqu.
"Anyway, we are safe for now. It's just that my cousin was frightened and his old injury has not healed yet. I guess he will have to rest for a longer time." Kong Xiyan crossed her arms and sighed.
"My dear son-in-law, if you need anything, please tell me at any time. I will send the best medical team to cooperate with your cousin's treatment." Winnie spoke to Kong Xiyan in a serious tone.
Bishop Gwat glanced at Winnie and could tell from her expression how much she valued Kong Xiyan.
"Thank you for your kindness, Princess. However, this heart disease still needs to be treated with heart medicine. As long as that fox-eyed guy stays in jail obediently, my cousin should be fine." Kong Xiyan smiled.
"Can we talk about these things later? I'm hungry and I want to eat!" Mo Ya puffed up her cheeks.
"It just so happens that I have someone prepare food to entertain Princess Winnie. Since the saint is hungry, let's have a meal together." Bishop Gwat then spoke with a smile again.
Soon, the four of them sat down together.
The ingredients of the dishes are not luxurious, but the combination of meat and vegetables is reasonable and the variety is complete, which looks very beneficial to physical and mental health.
Mo Ya was already hungry, so she started eating as soon as she sat down.
Seeing Moya like this, Winnie just smiled dotingly.
Instead, Bishop Gewart took the initiative to ask Kong Xiyan a few questions, most of which were about family members, personality and hobbies. It seemed that he was very curious about Kong Xiyan, and it seemed that he was helping his apprentice to screen the person for his future partner.
After Kong Xiyan answered, she suddenly reached out and held Winnie's hand.
Winnie was startled by Kong Xiyan's sudden action.
No, sister, how can you act big or small everywhere?
What the hell is going on? !
"Bishop Gwat, there is something I want to ask you." Kong Xiyan held Winnie's hand and looked at her lovingly, then looked at Bishop Gwat: "After we get engaged, I want to take Winnie back to my country to visit my family and see the hometown where I grew up.
I heard that Xing Erxuan's eldest princess means a lot to Xing Erxuan and is the incarnation of the Star God. I don't know if taking her away like this will have any negative impact on her."
Mo Ya, who was eating happily, looked up when she heard the sound. Her round cheeks rose and fell as she chewed slowly, and her big round eyes were full of curiosity.
She said why Kong Xiyan was so weird, it turned out that she had this idea!
Looking across the entire Xing'ertang, I'm afraid no one knows the Star God better than this bishop of the Holy See!
Instead of flipping through a pile of books, it’s better to ask Gwatt directly!
As expected, Bishop Gewat did not disappoint Kong Xiyan. He thought for a moment and said, "There is no negative influence. Although the princesses of previous generations did not marry outside the family, they did go abroad to study.
According to records, there was also a Princess Xing Ertang who traveled to the seven continents under the guidance of the star god and brought back a star map she drew herself.
But... the Princess has a special status after all, so it's better for her not to leave Xing Er Tang. This way it will be safer."
"I'm relieved to hear the bishop say that." Kong Xiyan pondered for a moment and asked, "I wonder which book records the story of the eldest princess traveling to the seven continents and drawing astrological maps?
Would it be convenient for me to borrow it?"
"Of course you can..." Bishop Gewat looked at Kong Xiyan with a puzzled look in his eyes: "Is it just that the prince consort is very curious about this matter?"
"Of course, that's why I want to know everything about the princess." Kong Xiyan put Winnie's hand on the side of her face: "Her Royal Highness the Princess is my biggest supporter now!"
It seemed that this was the first time that Bishop Gwat had heard such a bold declaration of being a gigolo.
I can't fix it all at once.
Mo Ya also rolled her eyes secretly.
Only Winnie looked at Kong Xiyan's profile, her eyes moving slightly.
Prince Consort, it seems like you are hiding something from her.
