Chapter 137 When will the emperor give us an explanation and when will we release the princess?
Qi Zhongshu had never seen such a difficult disciple in his entire life.
Qi Zhongshu also has a temper.
He was angry. With his hands behind his back and a tense face, he said to Jiujiu: "Princess, you really don't want to be my last disciple? I..."
Jiujiu was very afraid that Qi Zhongshu would ask her stepfather to issue an order to force her to be his last disciple.
This Qi Zhongshu has not even accepted her as his last disciple, but he is so cruel. If he accepts her as his last disciple, won't she be killed?
Jiujiu knelt on the ground in a cowardly manner, interrupting Qi Zhongshu's words, and said self-deprecatingly: "Sir, I am stupid, dumb, dull, and foolish, a fool, and I am not worthy of being your closed disciple."
"No, you are very smart." Qi Zhongshu said seriously, "Otherwise, I wouldn't insist on accepting you as my last disciple."
"No, no, no, sir, you misunderstood. I can't even count how many buns there are in two baskets."
"I'm really stupid."
"The very stupid kind."
"Can you please be kind enough to accept someone else as your last disciple and let me go?"
Jiujiu kowtowed twice begging for mercy.
Qi Zhongshu sighed with a headache, closed his eyes and pondered what sin he had committed? He finally met a smart child who was pleasing to him and wanted to teach him to become a talent so that he could follow the immortal legacy, but this child tortured him like this.
She would rather humble herself than take him as her teacher.
She seemed to regard him as a monster.
Is he scary?
He doesn't think so!
While Qi Zhongshu was closing his eyes and thinking, Jiujiu used her hands and feet to crawl away, as fast as a monkey. She also deliberately dived into the bushes to avoid being discovered.
Half a while passed and Qi Zhongshu didn't hear Jiujiu's voice again. He opened his eyes in confusion and looked in front of him.
But where is the little guy in front of me?
Qi Zhongshu slapped his forehead in self-blame: "The little princess is just like a monkey, smart and agile. How could I close my eyes and meditate? Now, she ran away again."
"Little princess, wait for me."
Qi Zhongshu was unwilling to give in and went after Jiujiu again.
·
After Jiujiu slipped away, she prepared to leave the palace.
This time, she followed the prince out of the palace.
Since the prince and Yu Wanyin got married, they have rarely left the palace to carry out business. They are newlyweds and their life is very sweet.
This was the first time he went out of the palace on business.
What errand are you doing?
Looking for the second prince.
After the Second Prince was trapped in Qiaoshu County due to a snowstorm, Emperor Zhaoning deliberately did not send anyone to rescue him, wanting the Second Prince, the fake prince, to fend for himself. After the snowstorm was over, there was no news from the Second Prince, and there was no sign of the Second Prince in Qiaoshu County.
Everyone assumed that the second prince was dead.
Unexpectedly, there was news about the second prince recently.
The Crown Prince was ordered to investigate. Or, in other words, he was ordered to secretly deal with the Second Prince.
But the news about the Second Prince came suddenly, and his whereabouts were uncertain.
It’s not easy for the prince to investigate!
When the prince led Jiujiu out of the palace, he said tentatively: "The second prince is not dead. I go to look for him this time, but I don't know if I can find him in Qiaoshu County?"
The prince wanted to hear Jiujiu's thoughts and see if he could learn the whereabouts of the second prince from her.
In this way, he can find people with twice the result with half the effort.
[That fake prince! ]
[He is so lucky that he is still alive? ]
【There was no news from him for so long that everyone thought he was dead. 】
[If you want to look for him, you must go to the dense forest west of Qiaoshu County. The book says that there is a wooden house in that place, which belongs to the second prince. He often lives there. If he is not dead, he should be there.]
[How can Jiujiu tell the prince brother? ]
【Let Jiujiu think of a solution. 】
Jiujiu tilted his head and thought of a solution.
The prince smiled in surprise and prepared to take his men to the dense forest west of Qiaoshu County to capture the person.
What Jiujiu revealed in his heart was never wrong.
This time, he will definitely be able to deal with the second prince according to Jiujiu's wishes.
The Second Prince is a scourge that will only do harm and no good to keep around.
For the long term, this problem must be solved.
The prince and his men walked away in a hurry. After walking a few steps, he suddenly stopped, turned around, and sent a few reliable people to protect Jiujiu. He also instructed them that after Jiujiu finished her tour, they must send her back to the palace on time.
Jiujiu wanted to say something, but in the end it was too late.
Jiujiu stared blankly at the prince's departing figure, thinking: [Forget it, forget it, I can't tell you this time, I'll tell you next time I see you, brother prince! ]
[Anyway, the Crown Prince may not be able to find the Second Prince when he goes there.]
[That second prince is really good at hiding! ]
[Next time we meet, Jiujiu will directly tell Brother Crown Prince where the Second Prince is hiding.]
·
After leaving the palace, Jiujiu came to the home of Xu Ran, who had previously bullied her thirteenth brother.
After beating up Concubine Xiao, there’s still Xu Ran!
Don't miss any of them.
Xu Ran comes from a good family, he is the eldest son of the Duke of Anguo's Mansion. His grandfathers have made great contributions, but by Xu Ran's generation, everything is basically useless. Xu Ran is just a spoiled, uneducated second-generation rich kid.
After Jiujiu arrived at Xu’s house.
The entire Xu family was angry and resentful about Xu Ran being beaten and injured, without any reason.
"Princess Yongle is going too far. She relies on her status as a princess and the emperor's favor to bully the prince of the Duke of Anguo Mansion. She really doesn't take the Duke of Anguo Mansion seriously."
"That Qi Zhongshu is also helping Princess Yongle?"
"If he doesn't help Princess Yongle, no one else will dare to torture the prince easily, and Princess Yongle's orders will be useless."
"Isn't it? We must ask for an explanation, otherwise where will our Anguo Mansion's reputation be?"
Jiujiu came at this time. She brought her people and swaggered into the mansion, then went straight to the lobby.
"She actually dares to come?"
"Now that you're here, don't leave."
"It is better to detain her. When the emperor gives us an explanation, we will release her. We cannot suffer this loss in vain."
Xu Ran's mother, Liu, felt really sorry for her son and was angry that he had suffered such a serious injury and would not be able to go to the study room to study in the future, so she came up with a vicious idea.
She doesn't care what good things her son has done.
All she cared about was that her son was beaten and seriously injured, and she must have an explanation.
Duke Anguo Xu Yi did not deny it. As a father, he was also very angry about his son's injury and was unwilling to accept it. He wanted to retaliate with his own body.
But, he did have some concerns.
After all, the princess is a princess. She is on the royal jade disc and is very favored by the emperor. She cannot be arrested casually.
Liu saw Xu Yi's concerns and said, "Master, we cannot arrest the princess openly and put her under house arrest, but we can tell others that we are inviting the princess to our home as a guest."
"It looks like an invitation to your home, but in reality it's just house arrest, it's just a different name."
"It's hard to find fault with them. The key is to get the emperor to give an explanation. Why not do it?"
After listening to this, Xu Yi nodded in agreement, "Okay, capture the princess and lock her up. Tell everyone that the princess is a guest in our home."
"When the emperor gives us an explanation, we will release the princess."
