Xiahou Chongyuan was quite helpless, but he didn't have time to explain to her now.
I went up the stairs to the third floor and saw the legendary Mr. Chen.
Song Qingxue followed behind Xiahou Chongyuan and had only one feeling - the Regent's movements of walking up to look for people were really skillful.
Xiahou Chongyuan couldn't help but pause, turned around to look at her, but turned back without saying anything.
Song Qingxue looked puzzled, "What are you doing?"
Xiahou Chongyuan said: "I was afraid you would get lost, so I turned around to see if you were still there."
Song Qingxue rolled her eyes at his back, feeling very angry.
She is not mentally retarded!
There must be something wrong with Xiahou Chongyuan!
Song Qingxue was lost in thought when Xiahou Chongyuan, who was walking in front of her, suddenly stopped.
She bumped into the other person's back without any suspense.
"hiss……"
"What are you doing again?"
Xiahou Chongyuan tilted his head to look at her, "Pay attention when walking."
“……”Well, blame her again.
However, this time it seems to be her problem.
Looking at the person standing in front of the window with his hands behind his back, she fell silent for a moment, but her eyes never left that person.
How to say it, she had never seen such a young charlatan.
I thought it was an old man half buried in the ground.
She couldn't help but wonder, how could this young man gain so much trust from the people in the surrounding area?
She had a lot of thoughts in her mind, but Mr. Chen didn't give her any more, but looked directly at Xiahou Chongyuan.
"My dear gentleman, what brings you here today?" Mr. Chen spoke in an unexpectedly low voice, which was in stark contrast to his rather elegant appearance.
Xiahou Chongyuan said: "Calculate my luck, calculate my destiny, calculate whether I can ascend to the supreme throne and become the true dragon emperor."
After these words were spoken, the other two people in the room were stunned.
"Your Excellency is really good at joking." Mr. Chen walked to the table, raised his hand and pointed to the chairs on the side, saying, "Please take a seat, both of you."
After he said that, he sat down in front of the desk.
After Xiahou Chongyuan and the other man walked to the chair and sat down, he spoke again: "Excuse me, sir, are you really here to have your fortune told?"
"nature."
"Then please take it seriously and don't embarrass me by saying those unrealistic things."
Xiahou Chongyuan said without changing his expression: "Do I look not serious?"
Mr. Chen opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but he immediately continued, "I heard that you can tell the fate of dragons and phoenixes, so I came all the way here. How can you say that this is unrealistic?"
Upon hearing this, Mr. Chen's expression instantly became solemn.
"Who are you?" he asked.
Xiahou Chongyuan narrowed his eyes and stared at him, "Sir, you can calculate, so you should be able to figure out who I am."
Song Qingxue shouted quietly at the side, thinking in her heart: Wonderful!
He is indeed a scheming regent and a master of bombing!
When Xiahou Chongyuan heard this, it almost broke his defense.
Sometimes he really couldn't tell whether Song Qingxue was praising him or scolding him.
What is called scheming? This is clearly called the competent one gets the upper hand!
Although Xiahou Chongyuan had some objections in his heart, on the surface he stared at Mr. Chen with a cold face.
"My dear gentleman, if you really want to get some information from me, it is better not to play dumb with me."
"Are you threatening me?" Xiahou Chongyuan's tone suddenly turned cold.
Mr. Chen didn't know who he was, so he made some guesses in his mind and was naturally panicked.
However, his years of professional training made him very good at managing his facial expressions. Even though Xiahou Chongyuan's face looked frighteningly cold, he just said indifferently, "I dare not."
"In that case, please tell me your fortune, sir!"
Mr. Chen looked embarrassed, "Sir, I really can't tell your fortune."
Xiahou Chongyuan continued to insist, "Oh? You can divine the phoenix girl, but you can't divine the real dragon. How can this be justified?"
"well--"
Mr. Chen sighed heavily, but he was determined to say, "Sir, I do this just to make a living, why are you so aggressive!"
Hearing this, Xiahou Chongyuan said, "Are you saying that all you have done over the years is a lie?"
Mr. Chen opened his mouth to refute, but when the words came to his lips, he just sighed and swallowed all the words back into his stomach.
After a moment of silence, Mr. Chen spoke up, "Your Excellency has mentioned the True Dragon and Phoenix Girl many times. I guess you want to come to me to learn about divination, right?"
Xiahou Chongyuan did not hide the purpose of his visit and said, "Indeed, I hope you can tell me the truth."
Although his words did not sound threatening, his attitude from the moment he entered the door showed that if he did not tell the truth, he would be in trouble.
After so many roundabout ways, Mr. Chen was able to guess his identity.
He did not point it out, but said sincerely: "The news about Phoenix Girl was released by a nobleman at a high price. Apart from that, I know nothing."
"What does that noble person look like?" Xiahou Chongyuan did not ask him who that noble person was. This Chen was just a charlatan who was good at pretending to be a master. It was presumed that he was just someone randomly found by the person behind the scenes. Naturally, it was impossible for him to know the person who asked him to do something.
When he asked, Mr. Chen recalled carefully, and then said: "It was a woman, but she was wearing Mu Li. I couldn't see what she looked like. I only remember that her voice was clear and sweet, which made people remember it as soon as they heard it."
When it comes to clear and sweet voices, the first person Song Qingxue thinks of is Zhao Wanqiu.
And the masterminds behind this incident are most likely Xiahou Chun and Zhao Wanqiu.
Thinking of this, she suddenly asked, "Can you remember it after just one listen? If I ask you to listen to it again, can you hear it?"
"Yes." Mr. Chen replied confidently.
Song Qingxue couldn't help but look at Xiahou Chongyuan, "What do you think of this idea?"
Song Qingxue didn't say it explicitly, but he could understand what she meant.
After all, he could always hear her inner voice, and at this moment, Xiahou Chongyuan could even be said to understand her thoughts better than the worms in her stomach.
So Xiahou Chong nodded and said, "It's feasible."
After that, he turned to Mr. Chen and said, "I just wonder if you are willing to go with us to the capital."
His tone was calm, but his eyes were so sharp that people dared not look directly at him.
Mr. Chen naturally understood the threat in his eyes, and no matter how reluctant he was, he had no choice but to agree.
He understood that there were only two roads before him at this moment, one leading to Shangjing City and the other leading to the underworld.
The work of persuading the witnesses went exceptionally smoothly.
It was not until Mr. Chen got on the carriage that Song Qingxue suddenly understood the significance of Xiahou Chongyuan giving the young man the ten taels of silver.
Her vision is indeed too small.
Ten taels of silver to buy a piece of strong evidence is a sure win deal!
Xiahou Chongyuan couldn't help but feel proud when he heard what she was saying.
"Do you still think I'm a fool now?" He whispered in Song Qingxue's ear with a smile on his lips.
When Song Qingxue heard this, she suddenly got goose bumps all over her body.
What the hell!
She remembered that she just complained in her heart!
How come Xiahou Chongyuan seemed to be able to hear her inner thoughts? What kind of supernatural event was this?
Although she thought so in her heart, she said with a fake smile: "What are you talking about! When did I ever say you look like a fool!"
She didn't believe that there was such a thing as mind-reading in this world. She must have failed to control her expression.
At a time like this, just deny it even if you are beaten to death!
