Chapter 354 Shameless
Xiao Tu couldn't sit still when she heard this. How could she be absent from such a lively atmosphere? She jumped out of bed and ran outside.
Seeing this, Li Mingshan hurriedly shouted, "Where are you going? Haven't you eaten yet?"
Xiao Tu's stomach growled in response. She raised her hand to rub it, then said with a smile, "Pack it up for me. I'm in a hurry to see a good show."
As he spoke, he tried to run away again. Li Mingshan was speechless when he saw this and said, "Even if the food can be packed, you can't run away like this, right?"
Xiao Tu finally realized that her hair was disheveled and she was still wearing pajamas. She immediately scratched her head and said, "Xiao Ming, I need your help. Otherwise, if I go there too late, I won't be able to see Ning Cuo beat up Old Man Yu."
Li Mingshan looked at her helplessly, and then asked someone to carry the imperial carriage over. He could do everything inside, such as dressing, changing clothes and eating, so that he wouldn't delay his journey!
When Xiao Tu saw this, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he smiled and gave Li Mingshan a thumbs up!
Unfortunately, she rushed to the competition venue in the imperial carriage, but the excitement she wanted to see had not even started yet, and Ning Cuo and the old Jade King were not there either.
Ning Liuyun, however, saw her coming and immediately came over, fanning himself with a flirtatious air. Seeing Xiao Tu holding her chopsticks, he smiled and teased, "Why are you still eating?"
Xiao Tu glanced around curiously before looking back at him. "I'm in a hurry, aren't I? Ning Cuo and Old Yu Wang are planning a duel, aren't they?"
Ning Liuyun raised the corner of his mouth with a hint of a smile when he heard this, "Guess?"
Xiao Tu glanced at him, then raised an eyebrow, "Is the old Jade King causing trouble again?"
Ning Liuyun smiled and waved his hands, saying, "Madam Xiao, you are really smart. Yes, that old man, even when he was about to die, still wanted to make a final struggle."
Xiao Tu was not surprised by this. After all, she had experienced how shameless the Old Jade King was. She was just wondering how a fish that had been thrown on the chopping board could still jump up. Besides, Ning Cuo would never let the other party jump again.
Seeing her confusion, Ning Liuyun winked at her and said, "Come to think of it, this is all thanks to you~"
Xiao Tu's beautiful eyes moved, "Does it have anything to do with me?"
Ning Liuyun also nodded in amusement, "Yeah, otherwise, how could an old fellow who was imprisoned in death row and heavily guarded have the ability to cause trouble?
"He's relying on your power, using chicken feathers as a token of authority, and claiming that you've made a gentleman's agreement with him to fight a fair and impartial battle to the death with Governor Ning. So, while you and Ning Cuo haven't shown up for the past three days, he's invited all the civil and military officials to watch the battle in your name."
Xiao Tu sneered when he heard this, "What a shameless old thing!"
Ning Liuyun agreed, "That's right. This old man is always afraid that you will break your promise and assassinate him. Or maybe he still wants to kill the great Governor Ning, but he's afraid that he won't be able to leave the Governor's Mansion. That's why he went to great lengths to invite these important officials of the court to be witnesses."
Xiao Tu laughed after hearing this, but her smile was filled with contempt and ridicule. She put down her chopsticks and said, "I'm afraid it's more than that. He's invited all the officials to come as witnesses. He might even be dreaming of killing Ning Cuo and then claiming he's the last of the royal bloodline, so he can command the officials present and ascend the throne smoothly!"
She really hated this old Jade King to the extreme!
How can I put it, four words, it makes me feel sick!
