Chapter 66 The Charlatan National Preceptor Was Captured by the Dark-Faced Tyrant 24
"What's up?"
Upon hearing Xie Hanzhou speak, Wen Xi, who was outside the window, quickly jumped into the carriage, propped her chin on her hand, and stared intently at Xie Hanzhou and Yu Sheng.
"Who let you in?"
Wenxi chuckled, "Of course it's Your Majesty~ I even knocked on the window before coming in this time."
After saying that, he turned to greet Yu Sheng, "Hello, Grand Preceptor!"
"Let me introduce myself first. I am Wen Xi, the deputy head of the Assassin's Pavilion, and also the youngest son of General Wen Zi." Wen Xi scratched his head. "However, I grew up in my maternal grandparents' house, and the Imperial Preceptor should only have heard of my elder brother's name."
Yu Sheng was confused by his father's name.
Who has this kind name?
"Excuse me for asking, but who is your brother...?"
"My brother is Major General Wen Xiang."
Ah... one is Wen Zi and the other is Wen Xiang, so why are you called Wen Xi?
Seeing the two chatting happily, Xie Hanzhou was filled with jealousy. He grabbed Yu Sheng's waist and impatiently told Wen Xi, "Go find your Xie Tingsheng!"
"Oh, okay... wait a minute, Your Majesty, please explain clearly, what do you mean by 'my Xie Tingsheng'?"
When did Xie Tingsheng become his?
Don't think that just because you're His Majesty you can spread rumors at will.
Yu Sheng, however, became interested and gestured for Xie Hanzhou to continue, her face full of gossip.
Helpless, Xie Hanzhou had no choice but to satisfy his desire for gossip.
"Don't play dumb. Do you think I don't know about what's going on between you and Tingsheng? You're always flirting and teasing each other. I'm not blind."
Wen Xi's eyes widened. "Don't talk nonsense! How could I possibly have that kind of relationship with Xie Tingsheng?!"
"Oh, so Tingsheng likes you, and you haven't realized your own feelings for him!"
Xie Hanzhou instantly transformed into a relationship guru, worrying about his cousin's marriage.
"Don't doubt it, he just likes you. I've been there, I have experience."
"If he didn't like you, he would never have indulged you like that. He probably would have thrown you out the moment you wiped your snot and tears on his clothes."
"I am experienced; if you wish..."
Wen Xi forced a smile and interrupted him, "I don't want to!"
His mind was in a mess. Xie Hanzhou's words kept echoing in his ears. He couldn't care about anything else and practically fled in panic.
"Hmm? Experienced? How come I didn't know Your Majesty was so experienced that you could teach others such things?"
Xie Hanzhou felt a little guilty.
Actually, he himself didn't have much experience, otherwise he wouldn't have been clinging to Yu Sheng and kissing her, only to be rejected by her.
However, Xie Tingsheng's feelings for Wenxi are genuine.
Xie Tingsheng had once told him this, but Xie Hanzhou at the time couldn't understand why his cousin would fall in love with a man.
Now he understands.
Liking someone has nothing to do with gender; it's just a fleeting feeling of attraction.
"Sheng Sheng, please stop teasing me. I was only thinking about Ting Sheng's marriage."
"Ha, instead of worrying about others, you should worry about yourself! You're always acting like that dog, all you do is cling to me and gnaw on me!"
888 chimed in, "Exactly! Xie Hanzhou, how can you be so spineless? Go for it!"
Yu Sheng: "888, you want to go to the dark room again, don't you?"
888 shrugged. "Whatever, I'll come out eventually. You can't just leave the small world now, can you?"
Yu Sheng: "..."
Your words are really crude, and you're getting more and more insane.
Xie Hanzhou felt he had many strengths, especially his ability to listen to advice. So, when Yu Sheng wasn't paying attention, he secretly lifted the curtain and gave some instructions to Steward An.
Upon hearing this, Steward An's face instantly turned bright red.
He whispered, "Your Majesty, it would be best to prepare what you require when we return to the capital, where the variety is the most complete."
Xie Hanzhou nodded reservedly.
"Xie Hanzhou, what are you whispering about with Steward An over there?"
"Nothing, just asking where we are."
Yu Sheng had no suspicions and never doubted anything.
888, who was eavesdropping on the conversation, let out a villainous laugh: Hehehe... Yu Sheng, you're finished!
Let's see if you still dare to complain that someone is like a dog after you get back, hehe.jpg
After leaving Xie Hanzhou's carriage, Wenxi instructed someone to send a message to Prince Ning via carrier pigeon.
When Xie Weiyan received the letter, she felt as if her world had collapsed.
What does "never fought" mean?
He stared at the three words in the letter for a long time, even thinking that the paper had been specially treated to prevent others from peeping at it, before the butler finally spoke:
"Your Highness, could we... have been deceived?"
"Impossible! That's the Assassin's Guild! How could the Assassin's Guild lie?! Do they no longer want to stay in Li Kingdom?"
Although he said things like "it's impossible" and "I don't believe it," his clenched fists betrayed his true thoughts.
He had thought about it, but he didn't dare to.
I'm afraid it's all true.
He spared no expense to successfully kill Xie Hanzhou and Yu Sheng, spending tens of thousands of taels of gold, which almost emptied his entire Ningwang Mansion's fortune.
Not to mention the agreement he signed with the deputy leader of the Assassin's Guild.
If the Assassin's Guild wants to get rid of him, he has no choice but to accept his fate, since he personally signed, stamped, and even used his personal seal on it.
No one would believe that he did not have treasonous intentions.
So even if he was really scammed, he could only swallow his anger and suffer in silence.
But I'm not willing to accept it!
He was just one step away from reaching that position, how could he be content with that!
"But Your Highness, why don't we ask Ning Er and the others?"
Xie Weiyan felt a surge of anger whenever Ning Er was mentioned.
"Useless! A bunch of useless trash! Didn't I send them to follow the Assassin's Guild? They haven't even sent a single message! A bunch of useless trash, what use are they to me?!"
Xie Weiyan was furious.
If he knew that Ning Er and his four brothers had all "betrayed" him, wouldn't he be so angry that he would spit out a mouthful of blood?
The butler remained silent.
At times like this, it's best not to disturb His Highness. Let him calm down on his own; perhaps he'll calm down on his own after a while.
His Highness is still too young.
I don't know whether helping His Highness is right or wrong...
"Your Highness, then this old servant will take his leave."
Unfortunately, some people didn't want Xie Weiyan to have an easy time.
Just as the steward was about to leave, the gatekeeper announced, "Your Highness, a guest has arrived."
"I won't see you! Can't you see I'm annoyed?!"
The gatekeeper looked at him hesitantly, and even though Xie Weiyan was angry, he also sensed that something was wrong.
Who is coming?
After the question was asked, a cheerful male voice came from outside the door. Xie Tingsheng, fanning himself, said with a smile, "It seems His Highness Prince Ning isn't very welcoming of me~"
Xie Tingsheng looked at him with a smile, but the smile didn't reach his eyes.
