Joy of Life: I am a Han Dynasty succubus, and I rebel from the beginning

Chapter 89: You are not Haitang Duoduo, why do you keep following me?

Liu Hong ate the sumptuous feast on the table slowly and leisurely, ignoring Shen Zhong's words.

Shen Zhong wanted to kill Sean, but Liu Hong didn't want to...

After eating and drinking, Liu Hong and his personal guards experienced the customs and culture of the capital.

For a long time, Liu Hong thought that the magicians in Joy of Life did not exist in this world at all.

I didn't expect that on the streets of Shangjing, almost all the artists who appeared in public were mages, but seeing the disdainful looks from the warriors around them.

In their eyes, these mages should be considered as inferior.

"Donor, you are polite!"

The Taoist priest with a shaved head and wearing running clothes, smiled and held out a bowl to Liu Hong.

Yang Du, who was just about to draw his sword, was a little confused for a moment.

Is this a beggar? But how can a beggar be so confident in begging for food? And shouldn’t he pretend to be disabled and act pitiful?

Liu Hong stared at the Taoist for a long time.

Generally speaking, without ninth-grade skills, it is impossible to sneak past the guards and get close to you silently.

However, judging from the Taoist's slightly calmed aura, he might not even be at the eighth level.

Is this magic? Warriors and mages are compatible, plus they have hands and feet, so they are not considered production.

There was only one believer in the Tianyi Sect in Northern Qi.

Liu Hong threw a few pieces of silver as a relief to the Taoist.

Unexpectedly, the Taoist only picked up a piece of silver and returned the rest intact.

"Thank you for your kindness, my meal money for a week will be paid for immediately. I wish Grand Master Kuhe would take good care of you."

The Taoist bowed his head and then walked barefoot on the streets of Shangjing.

"Sir... we failed to provide adequate protection. Please punish us, sir."

Yang Du was filled with shame and apologized to Liu Hong.

Liu Hong laughed instead.

"What crime have you committed? If this is the only crime you can take, then Her Highness the Saint has been with us all the way, and you haven't noticed yet. Isn't that a capital crime?"

Yang Du and others were horrified and looked around vigilantly.

But after looking for a long time, there was no trace of the Saint Begonia Duoduo.

"Don't look any more, that's the village girl eating noodles at the noodle stall."

Liu Hong shook his head and pointed at the Begonia Duoduo who was wolfing down the food not far from him.

The Taoist priest just now gave Haitang Duoduo a Kuaiji gesture and also sat down at the noodle stall.

"I'm sorry, I've been following you guys for too long. You guys are full and satisfied, but I haven't eaten yet!"

Haitang Duoduo's dress and tone are completely different from the aloof saint of Northern Qi.

Frank and natural, yet with the rusticity of a country girl.

"The Saint is busy with all sorts of things, why are you staring at me for no reason?"

"I can't help it! Since Sean is still alive, I don't even dare to go back to my master. If Sean doesn't die, I'm afraid that I, the last disciple, will never be able to close the door again."

Haitang Duoduo sighed, her face full of sadness.

Liu Hong knocked on the table.

"What does that have to do with following me!"

Haitang Duoduo's face suddenly turned red with embarrassment, and she seemed to be unable to speak.

"Excuse me, I intercepted a letter and it seems like you and Sean have some connection, so I followed you to look for an opportunity."

A saint lady of Northern Qi acting in such an awkward manner would make people laugh if others knew about it.

Does Haitang Duoduo need to make such a gesture? Absolutely not.

More importantly, she forgot to bring money.

Liu Hong looked at Haitang Duoduo, who had turned out all her pockets and was penniless. His eyelids twitched.

Ku He and his disciples are really out of touch with this world!

Liu Hong paid the money for the noodles to the store owner. "It's useless for you to follow me. Xiao En is at least a ninth-grade martial artist. As time goes by, he eats and drinks well, and the poison in his body is forced out. You may not be able to kill him."

"I don't care whether he is killed or not. My senior brother Lang Tao has already come to the capital."

Haitang Duoduo looked indifferent, but she still followed Liu Hong closely.

For a moment, the guards didn't know whether they should take action against Haitang Duoduo.

Make a move! If they don't use the poison crossbow in their hands, they may not be able to force Haitang Duoduo back. If they don't make a move, then what are these personal guards for?
Liu Hong didn't say anything, but just walked quietly on the street, and Haitang Duoduo followed slowly behind him.

Outside the Shangjing Imperial Palace, there is a deep bamboo forest.

Outside the Shangjing Imperial Palace, every inch of land is valuable. Without royal permission, it is basically a dream to build a bamboo forest here.

"Your bamboo forest?"

Liu Hong turned around and unexpectedly found himself walking into Haitang Duoduo's residence.

The bamboo forest is filled with a refreshing fragrance, with a somewhat light atmosphere, but as you get closer to the palace, everything seems blurry.

"Yes, because I don't like living in the palace, so the royal family granted permission and all officials built this bamboo forest retreat for me."

Haitang Duoduo spoke calmly. In this bamboo forest, she really had the noble temperament of a saint.

"That's great. It must have cost a lot!"

Liu Hong sighed, the price of hiding from the world in the bustling city was probably a bit high.

Begonia Duoduo is very free and easy.

"I just want to stay here. As for how much money the people have spent, I don't know. But I have a clear conscience."

"Be particular!"

Liu Hong gave a thumbs up.

No wonder Emperor Qing looked down upon Ku He's Tianyi Dao the most. It really felt like she was pretending to be a whore while also being a saint.

Haitang Duoduo ignored him, wandered around the bamboo forest and cabin, and lay comfortably on the bed for a while.

Liu Hong raised his foot and prepared to go to the wooden house, and his personal guards were ready to follow him closely.

Haitang Duoduo immediately became dissatisfied.

"Hey, hey, hey, how many people do you think my little cabin can accommodate?"

Yang Du was a smart guy. He winked at Liu Hong for a while, then led his personal guards to seal off the wooden house.

"Your Highness, can you please tell me your real purpose now? It feels a little strange to follow me just to kill Sean."

"Alas! I don't want to either. Actually, the emperor just wants to know how long it will take for you to send Si Lili back. The emperor misses Si Lili very much."

Haitang Duoduo sighed.

He pulled out a document, which was from a close confidant of the young Northern Qi emperor.

As long as Liu Hong is willing to release Si Lili, the little emperor can take a step back and release all the Nanqing spies captured this time.

Just by reading the letters, people who don’t know him would really think that the emperor was a lovesick man.

"Si Lili will be back in the palace in a few days, but I think it's better for her to stay with me. After all, the Queen Mother doesn't want Si Lili to marry into the royal family, right?"

Liu Hong pondered for a while, but still chose not to accept the little emperor's advice.

Perhaps he also had true feelings for Si Lili and was unwilling to trade her.

Haitang Duoduo showed a hint of surprise on her face.

"I didn't expect that you, a foreign minister from Southern Qing, would understand our state affairs so thoroughly. It seems that Northern Qi is really rotten to the core."

These were clearly words of deep sorrow, yet Haitang Duoduo said them so naturally.

I really doubt whether this guy is the Holy Maiden of Northern Qi.

"Since you know, you are not worried at all. Is it because of the great master Ku He in Northern Qi?"

Haitang Duoduo nodded as a matter of course.

The Grand Master may not be able to stop thousands of troops, but he can make the entire Qing Kingdom unstable.

Even Emperor Qing couldn't handle it. The Grand Master was so ruthless in his assassination that he didn't personally lead his troops to the Northern Expedition for so many years.
"In that case, I should meet Master Ku He."

Liu Hong's eyes suddenly flashed with a gleam of light.
