Su Xiaoyong got up in embarrassment. He never expected to encounter such a shady bathhouse, which made him penniless again.
If I had known this earlier, I wouldn’t have washed it.
It's too late to regret now.
Su Xiaoyong limped away. The shop owners nearby were no longer surprised by this scene. Anyone who had lived here for a long time knew the character of this bathhouse.
"Tsk tsk, another outsider who got cheated."
"Now the city is sealed off and he has no money. How can he survive? Wang Laobach is really a wicked man." A woman felt very sympathetic about Su Xiaoyong's situation, but sympathy was sympathy and no one reached out to help.
I can't afford to help these days. If I get blamed, it would be terrible.
Su Xiaoyong was walking on the street in his undershirt, and immediately attracted countless prying and scrutinizing eyes. Everyone looked at him with curiosity and contempt.
As a scholar, walking on the street in underwear is absolutely disrespectful.
Su Xiaoyong covered his face and left quickly, heading towards the north of the city where the powerful and wealthy gathered. After arriving in the north of the city, he asked many people along the way and finally found the Prince of Wu's Palace.
As long as he surrenders to the King of Wu, he will surely be rich and prosperous in the future.
The reason is simple, because in the previous life, among the adult princes including King Qin, King Jing, King Yun, King Wu and so on, only King Wu became the final winner and sat on the throne.
Even though the first three were very powerful, the person who made the most jokes in the end was the King of Wu, whom no one had expected.
In everyone's eyes, King Wu is a free-spirited prince who likes to tend to the fields, grow vegetables, raise chickens and ducks, and farm, etc.
But he sat on the throne. As for how he sat on the throne, Su Xiaoyong was not very clear, because at that time, their family was separated by the insidious bitch Su Yin, and he was thrown into prison and would be executed the following year.
Now all he has to do is cling to the King of Wu's leg and get on his boat, and his meteoric rise to prominence is just around the corner.
Su Xiaoyong straightened his clothes, but no matter how he straightened, he could not change the embarrassment of wearing his underwear.
He cursed the owner of the bathhouse a thousand times in his heart, and mustered up his courage to walk towards Prince Wu's palace.
As soon as they approached Prince Wu's palace, the guards guarding the gate shouted.
"stop."
“Stand back.”
Su Xiaoyong ignored him and continued walking forward, going straight up the steps of the palace. He had a flattering smile on his face and was about to open his mouth when a cold knife was pointed at him. He was so scared that he swallowed his words and immediately retracted his steps.
"My two guard brothers, I have come to seek refuge with the prince. I am good at fortune-telling and I can help the prince ascend the throne."
The two guards' faces changed at the same time. One of them had a cold look in his eyes. He walked up to Su Xiaoyong, grabbed his collar, and threw him away fiercely, sternly warning him, "Don't talk nonsense in front of the palace. My prince wants to be free. If you dare to talk nonsense again, I will kill you."
Su Xiaoyong was frightened by the other party's intimidation and dared not to do anything else. He got up from the ground in embarrassment and did not dare to move forward again.
Because he was afraid of being killed by the guards.
He limped to the side and squatted in a corner. From this position he could see the gate of the Prince of Wu's Palace and the people coming in and out.
His only hope now is to board the King of Wu's ship, hoping to rise to prominence with his help. Naturally, he cannot just give up like that.
Su Xiaoyong was ready to sit back and wait for the prince to come out.
The prince is the true dragon emperor, he must have a keen eye and will definitely be able to discover his own uniqueness.
Su Xiaoyong comforted himself in this way.
He just squatted in the corner.
The two guards outside the Prince Wu's Mansion noticed that Su Xiaoyong had been staying there and refused to leave, so one of them came over.
Su Xiaoyong was very nervous when he saw the man coming over. "What do you want to do?"
"Hurry and go."
"This is not the palace. I will stay wherever I want." Su Xiaoyong said the tough words in a timid tone.
The guard was so angry that he laughed, "Okay, just stay here. Don't let me see you approaching the palace, or you will be in trouble."
Su Xiaoyong lowered his head timidly.
After giving the warning, Su Xiaoyong raised his eyes and looked at the two guards, remembering them firmly in his mind.
Once the King of Wu uses him, he will definitely teach these two guys a lesson.
Su Xiaoyong held a grudge against the two of them, but he didn't dare show it on his face.
He waited and waited at the gate of the palace, from day till night, but did not see the prince. Fortunately, he had eaten well during the day, so he was not hungry.
The next day, I was so thirsty that I asked someone for a glass of water, and then continued to squat in the corner waiting.
The food I ate yesterday has been digested and my stomach is already rumbling with hunger.
That day they waited from day till night, but the King of Wu did not show up.
Just keep waiting...
It was not until the fourth day, when he was about to give up, that he finally saw the King of Wu's sedan chair and saw the King of Wu walking out of the sedan chair.
In an instant, all the strength in Su Xiaoyong's body burst out and he rushed towards King Wu like mad.
The guards guarding King Wu suddenly saw someone rushing towards the prince and reacted quickly to control the person.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, I am Su Xiaoyong, and I have come to seek refuge with you."
Su Xiaoyong was pinned to the ground by the guards, but his eyes were fixed on Prince Wu who was walking into the palace, and he kept shouting.
The King of Wu never even looked at him from beginning to end. Countless people came to him for help every day, but only a few could be accepted by him.
The palace is not a place for collecting rags and scraps. Not even a cat or a dog can enter.
Su Xiaoyong saw that King Wu was about to leave him, and he was afraid that it would be difficult to find another opportunity.
He thought of a clever idea and shouted to the tall figure: "Your Majesty, I can tell fortunes, I can see into the secrets of heaven, and I can make your dreams come true."
The King of Wu, who had been walking forward, suddenly stopped, and the servants following him understood what he meant.
He walked out of the mansion, approached Su Xiaoyong, waved at the guards, and the guards immediately let go of their hands, and Su Xiaoyong was finally free.
"Come in."
Su Xiaoyong was overjoyed, knowing that he had made the right bet.
He couldn't hide the joy on his face.
When the servant saw his look, he sneered in his heart, thinking that it was too early for this guy to be happy.
Whether he can stay or not depends on his ability.
If he doesn't have the ability, this person can only come in vertically and go out horizontally.
Su Xiaoyong followed the servant boy all the way into the depths of the mansion. He glanced at the scenery inside the palace and couldn't help but marvel at its luxury.
The two of them walked into a small hall. The servant asked Su Xiaoyong to wait outside while he went in to report.
After a while, the servant came out and said, "Follow me."
Su Xiaoyong nodded timidly and followed him into the small hall.
