Chapter 80: The Misogyny Photographer x The Stunningly Beautiful Female Killer 30

Cao Qing hurried all the way and finally entered Shangjing City. At this time, she was dirty and did not look like the daughter of a city governor at all.

Cao Qing walked aimlessly on the bustling street, her eyes filled with confusion. Cao Qing, who had never been out of Xuancheng, saw such a gorgeous street for the first time. The people in Shangjing City were also dressed much more luxuriously than those in Xuancheng.

Gradually, a moment of determination emerged in Cao Qing's eyes. Since the Regent Prince looked down on her, there must be many good men in the capital. She didn't believe that there was no one better than the Regent Prince.

Cao Qing went to a pawnshop to pawn her gold and silver jewelry, found an inn, and after getting herself ready, she began to think of a solution.

He put on the only new piece of clothing in his bag, walked to the lobby and sat down.

"Waiter"

A thin man in a blue cloth with a white scarf on his shoulders ran over and asked, "Sir, what do you need?"

Cao Qing put down a few coins and asked, "Waiter, please tell me about this trip to the capital."

The waiter curled his lips when he saw such a small amount of silver, but he still rolled his eyes and said, "The girl should have come to Beijing from somewhere else, right?"

"There are many things to do in the capital. What do you want to know?"

Cao Qing glanced at the waiter and said, "Let's talk about the story of the Regent and the princes."

The waiter's eyes deepened slightly, and he laughed, "This amount of silver is not enough. How can a royal affair cost so little silver?"

Cao Qing was suddenly embarrassed. The reward money she received in Xuancheng was already quite a lot, but she didn't expect that a waiter in Shangjing would have such a big appetite.

But then he thought, you can't catch a wolf without sacrificing a child, so he gritted his teeth and took out another silver ingot from his pocket.

The waiter was satisfied, picked up the silver, put it in his mouth and chewed it, saying, "Since the lady wants to know about the royal family, please move to the private room. It's not convenient to talk here."

The waiter first went to the counter and said a few words to the middle-aged man inside, and then took Cao Qing into a small room next door.

"Let's talk about the Regent King first. He was the Emperor for a few years before. However, because he had a hidden illness since childhood, he couldn't touch women. He also wanted to make sure that the throne would not be passed down to his successor, so he had to give up the throne to his younger brother."

When the waiter mentioned that the Regent could not touch women, Cao Qing felt excited. She seemed to know something extraordinary.

"The Emperor and the Regent are not from the same mother, so their relationship is not particularly good. Even Prince Kang is at odds with the Regent."

Cao Qing rolled her eyes and asked, "What about King Kang and King Chen?"

The waiter thought for a moment and said, "Prince Chen hasn't had any problems recently. It seems that few people mention him. I heard that the emperor has confined him to his home."

"As for Prince Kang, he has always been very high-profile, and his mother, Concubine Chen Shu, is the most favored concubine in the palace, so everyone says that Prince Kang will be the next emperor."

"I have almost finished what I have said. Is there anything else you would like to ask?"

Cao Qing narrowed her eyes and thought for a while before asking, "Does Prince Kang have a princess?"

After asking this question, Cao Qing asked again, "There is also the Regent King. Since he cannot touch women, why does he have a Regent King's Consort?"

The waiter looked at Cao Qing with disdain and said, "Sir, where are you from? You don't even know whether Prince Kang has a princess, but you know that the Regent Prince has a princess."

"Prince Kang did have a princess before, but when the princess gave birth, two people died. Now there are only two concubines in Prince Kang's palace."

After saying this, the waiter lowered his voice and said, "As for the Regent Princess, it was a marriage gift from the Emperor. I heard that she is pretty. I just wonder how the Regent Prince feels when he can only look at the beautiful Princess but not touch her every day."

Cao Qing was deeply shocked and murmured, "How is it possible? The Regent Princess is clearly pregnant."

"Sir, what did you say?" The waiter didn't hear clearly and frowned.

Cao Qing came back to her senses, smiled awkwardly and said, "Oh, nothing, thank you for telling me this, waiter."

The waiter snorted, thought for a moment and said, "There is one more piece of news, but I need to give you some money. Do you want to know, young lady?"

Cao Qing didn't have much silver left, but she was afraid of missing out on the most important news, so she reluctantly took out a few pieces of silver.

"Okay," the waiter straightened his back slightly and said, "You don't look like a wealthy person. Our restaurant is the property of His Royal Highness Prince Kang. If you stay here, you may be able to see Prince Kang."

Cao Qing's eyes lit up, and she immediately felt that the money was worth it. "Thank you for telling me, waiter."

The waiter curled his lips, he knew it would be like this, another woman who was greedy for fame and fortune. Touching the silver on her body, the waiter was happy again, he could go gamble again.

The waiter left the room, thinking back to what the woman had just muttered, frowned, thought for a moment, walked to the counter, knocked on the table and said, "Boss, there's something wrong with that woman just now."

The shopkeeper looked at the account book, and when he heard this, he looked up at the waiter and said, "What's the problem? You can tell from the looks of it that you're from a small town."

The waiter shook his head and said, "That's not it. She seemed very surprised when I told her that the Regent cannot touch women."

The shopkeeper glared at the waiter and said, "What's wrong with this? She didn't know about the trip to the capital. It's the first time she heard that the Regent Prince had a hidden illness. Isn't it normal for her to be shocked?"

"But," the waiter wanted to continue, but the shopkeeper waved his hand impatiently and said, "Okay, get back to work. If the master finds out that you've been slacking off, he'll give you a good beating."

The waiter sighed and shook his head.

Cao Qing doesn't have much money left, and she must think of a solution before the money is gone, otherwise she will really starve to death in this Shangjing City.

She returned to where she had been sitting before, and looked around. It seemed that she would have to wait and see here for the next few days.

The next day, after washing up, Cao Qing sat in the lobby, doing nothing but drinking a pot of hot tea.

The shopkeeper and the waiter shook their heads repeatedly. There were so many beauties in the capital city, and it was really presumptuous of them to think that this young girl with such beautiful looks would be favored by King Kang.

After noon, a luxurious carriage stopped at the door of the restaurant, and King Kang walked in wearing luxurious brocade clothes.

When Cao Qing saw the carriage, her eyes widened, especially the shopkeeper and the waiter standing straight. Cao Qing knew she had waited for the right thing.

She quickly tidied her hair and clothes, and deliberately bent her body when King Kang passed by her.

Prince Kang frowned, dodged to the side, and Cao Qing fell to the ground.

"Ouch." Cao Qing covered her arm which was hurt from the fall, feeling a little annoyed. How could King Kang be so boring?

The eunuch next to Prince Kang even kicked Cao Qing and screamed, "How dare you offend His Royal Highness Prince Kang? Do you know your crime?"

Cao Qing looked at King Kang pitifully and said, "I didn't mean it. Please forgive me, Your Highness."
