When his identity as a charlatan was exposed in Duke Dingguo's Mansion, Mei knew that he had made a mistake.
He couldn't understand why a princess like her could learn the mysterious techniques.
Although she was kidnapped and brought to the palace, before the night before, her mentality was still quite stable.
Neither he nor the little fox realized Qing Wu's true strength.
It's not that the 'enemy' is too strong, it's just that I am too weak. Who made him a useless man now, and the little fox is a useless fox.
It was not until she witnessed Qing Wu killing a ghost messenger as easily as slapping a fly that she spoke Qu Huang's name to his face.
Only then did Mei realize that she was not mistaken, but Chunchun was blind.
"I wonder who the princess's master is from, and how did she know Qu Huang's name?"
His expression was humble, and he looked like a wrinkled old man who was frightened.
"Old charlatan, are you challenging my patience?"
"No, no, no! I dare not, I just..." Mei Mei looked panicked, gritted her teeth, and seemed to have hardened her heart:
"I took on a business before, helping a family to search for souls in the underworld. I accidentally bumped into Qu Huang Zun Yu on the road to the underworld."
Reverend? Qing Wu's eyes flashed with sarcasm: "That's it?"
Mei Mei nodded pitifully, and did not forget to kick the little fox beside her.
The little fox said hurriedly: "Zundu, Zundu! What wrinkled said is true."
The judge's pen clicked its tongue, "These old men and foxes are really punishing for lying in front of you."
Qing Wu was in no hurry to expose these two guys. She looked superior and disdainful:
"That devil of a thing, Ye, broke into my house and caused a lot of trouble. If I had known that you two would cause me trouble, I should have killed you at the Duke Dingguo's Mansion."
"That Qu Huang is a vindictive man. If you don't give me a reason, I'd better kill you two as soon as possible to avoid bringing disaster upon myself."
"No!" the little fox screamed, tears streaming down his face, "Beautiful Princess, Sister Princess, Wrinkled Baba and I can't die. We have no parents above us and only children below us. How young are we!"
"If we die, the hungry babies at home will starve to death."
"Yes, yes, please have mercy on us, Princess, and let us go. After we leave, there will be no more trouble."
The old man and the fox were crying and wondering whether they should change their pitiful posture, when they heard the woman say:
"Okay, then you guys go."
“Wow… ah?”
Qing Wu met two pairs of confused eyes, raised her fingertips, and the red rope that bound them broke.
"What? You want me to see you off in person?"
"No, no, no! Let's go now!" Mei was startled, kicked the little fox into her arms, got up and bowed to Qing Wu, all kinds of words of thanks flowing out of her mouth.
After walking out of the woodshed, he paused, frowned, and said:
"My Lady Princess, well... there is no rice to cook at home, and more than a dozen mouths are crying for food. You are a kind-hearted person..." He rubbed his fingers.
Qing Wu smiled.
Judge's Pen: "This is a talented person."
Qing Wu casually threw a silver ingot over to him, and without waiting for him to bow, she said with an unpredictable smile: "I took the money, but you have to return it."
"Don't worry, Princess! I will work like a slave in my next life to repay you!"
The old charlatan said auspicious words while running as fast as he could, fearing that if he slowed down, Qing Wu would regret it and he would never be able to escape.
After leaving the palace, the old man and the fox ran at the speed of swift horses in the city of Kyoto.
"Wrinkled, is that vicious woman really going to let us go just like that?"
"I see she's taller than you were before you became disabled, and you dare to cheat her out of money. If she figures it out, she'll definitely kill us!"
Mei Mei ran with her teeth bared, panting hard: "You think she is your useless brain? Do you believe that she will find us no matter how far we run?"
"Then how dare you lie to her?" The little fox said anxiously: "She killed the ghost messenger sent by Qu Huang, maybe he is a human?"
"Tell her the truth, maybe she'll be willing to help..."
"You really are stupid." Mei Mei sneered, "This city of Kyoto is full of wicked people. Qu Huang is colluding with the people of Yangshi. Otherwise, how do you think those children died?"
"She is a princess, but she has such a strange and unpredictable power. Who knows if she is an enemy or a friend, loyal or treacherous?"
"What if she and Qu Huang are in cahoots and team up to trick us?"
The little fox was confused and said, "But you also said that we can't escape from her control."
Mei Mei threw the silver, and a hint of ruthlessness and coldness flashed in her eyes.
"Money talks. Just wait and see. Even though I am a useless old man, I will sacrifice my body to help you find a way out."
Inside the palace.
"Awu, why did you let him go?" Judge Pen was puzzled: "He and that little fox were hiding things, and they didn't tell the truth."
"It may not be untrue."
The judge's pen was puzzled.
Qing Wu smiled lazily: "Why rush? The Infant-Eating Mountain has become the Henglu Mountain, and I haven't seen any action from that Qu Huang. Instead, he sent the mandrill and the little ghost to hunt down this charlatan."
"This old charlatan must be holding something in his hand."
Judge Pen said with a click of the tongue: "Did you see the clues a long time ago? I was wondering why you brought this old man and the little fox here."
Qing Wu smiled without saying anything, and walked slowly towards the Iris Courtyard, but her smile was a little cold:
"Just wait and see. Anyway, this old man and this fox can't get away."
"But the guy who was traveling at night still hasn't been convinced. This makes the matter even more interesting."
Judge Pen's voice also became more serious:
"Yes, it's not easy for Yeyou to deal with Qu Huang. No matter how passive that guy is, this time the fire has burned his eyebrows, he can't give up again."
"Then there is only one answer."
Qing Wu sneered: "That rubbish capsized in the gutter."
By the time we arrived at Iris Court, the battle there had also ended.
Qing Wu pinched her nose and looked at the pile of dead mandrills in the yard with an unpleasant expression.
Xiao Chenyan saw her coming and was about to pass by when she came running out from a distance: "It stinks!"
The man's pajamas were stained with the mandrill's blood, and the smell of blood was indeed pungent.
Xiao Chenyan did not come forward: "Iris Courtyard cannot be lived in for the time being, please stay at my place at night."
Qing Wu snorted proudly, looked around, and saw that no one among the Black Armor Guards was injured, and they were all quite excited.
"Let me see Madam Mu first, you..." She waved her hand at Xiao Chenyan in disdain: "Hurry up and wash yourself clean. You are not allowed to get on my bed if you are not."
Everyone else around lowered their heads, not daring to look at their own prince's expression, and the corners of their mouths couldn't help but curl up.
Xiao Chenyan looked at her coldly. He looked well-dressed before, but did he sleep with her?
