The number one rebel of the Great Wu

"You audacious lackey, who gave you permission to speak?"

Seeing that someone still dared to stir up trouble under these circumstances, Crown Prince Xiao Lie was furious.

To his surprise, when he turned around, he saw Chen Changgeng standing behind him with a look of utter astonishment.

"Little Gengzi, when did you arrive?"

Chen Changgeng did not answer, but only smiled mysteriously.

"Your Highness, if you trust me..."

"I have a way to ensure you leave the palace safely, severely punish the envoys, and avoid being punished by the Emperor!"

Xiao Lie was overjoyed.

Is that really true?

"More real than pearls!"

"When do we set off?!"

"Ah... Tomorrow, we'll go to the inn first thing tomorrow morning!"

Chen Changgeng looked up at the sky; it was already close to evening.

Think about it, since they were both Di people and Japanese delegations, they must have some martial arts skills.

It would be safer to learn from Azi how to use internal energy tonight and set off tomorrow.

"Excellent! Little Gengzi, you are truly my savior!"

"If you can accomplish this, I, the Crown Prince, will reward you handsomely!"

"My beloved consort, did you hear that? Tomorrow, I, the Crown Prince, will go and rescue Narcissus, and avenge you and Narcissus!"

……

After dinner, Chen Changgeng returned to his residence looking exhausted.

Just then, Xiang'er led A-Yuan back.

At this moment, A-Yuan had changed into a brand new palace dress. Xiang'er not only arranged for her to have a legitimate identity within the palace, but also thoughtfully arranged for her to do laundry.

Seeing that it was getting dark, Chen Changgeng didn't bother to talk to Xiang'er anymore. He first used a thick hemp rope to tie A Yuan to a wooden pillar inside the house.

After repeatedly checking and confirming that he couldn't break free, he finally went outside.

"Xiang'er, what's the result of the investigation I asked you to conduct?"

"You mean Consort Ling?"

Chen Changgeng nodded solemnly.

When Chen Changgeng went to see the Crown Prince earlier, Consort Ling's words were so suggestive that they immediately set off alarm bells in his mind.

He always felt that Consort Ling was not simple!

"I asked around and found out that before the Crown Prince brought Consort Ling into the mansion, she had only been at the Red Jade Courtyard for three to five days."

"I think this is quite a coincidence, so I wanted to find out more about her background and hometown, but I don't have any clues yet."

"What a coincidence!"

"How often did our Crown Prince visit the Red Jade Courtyard?"

"Quite a lot..."

Xiang'er gave an awkward smile, then suddenly grabbed Chen Changgeng's wrist, her tone immediately becoming serious.

"You're not allowed to go to places like that! Now you have the Shion sisters and me!"

"If you dare to go to those kinds of places and flirt again, I'll make you pay!"

Chen Changgeng deliberately feigned reluctance.

"If the Crown Prince is going, will he take me with him?"

Xiang'er was stunned for a moment, then gritted her teeth in resentment.

"Then you're not allowed to misbehave when you go!"

"Okay, okay!"

Chen Changgeng chuckled and waved for Xiang'er to leave.

Pushing open the door and returning inside, I was about to ask A-Yuan how she was when I saw Zi-Yuan suddenly look up.

Her eyes, which were originally gentle and pitiful, instantly turned murderous!

Even her soft words turned icy cold instantly.

"You villain, let me go right now!"

"Otherwise, once I break free, I'll tear you to pieces!"

"Azi?"

Seeing the raging fire in those beautiful eyes, Chen Changgeng already knew what was going on.

He immediately crossed his arms and sat down on the edge of the bed, even crossing his legs.

"Now, you have transferred eighty percent of your power to me."

Even if you loosen the restraints, you're still no match for me.

"How about this, let's have an open and honest talk."

"Pooh!"

"You villain, I have nothing to say to you. You only want to take my power, and I will never let you succeed!"

Azi said angrily.

Chen Changgeng nodded with considerable appreciation.

"Not bad, quite a fiery temper."

"But I'm not gagging you now. If you're really that stubborn, why don't you just bite your tongue and kill yourself!"

"Otherwise, I'll strip you naked and grope you all over."

"I'll humiliate you a few more times until you can't take it anymore and pass out!"

"You, you!"

Ah Zi's face instantly turned bright red, and she gritted her teeth so hard they made a grinding sound!

"I know you wouldn't dare. If you die, your sister A-Yuan will die too."

"You can't bear to part with it, can you?"

"To be honest, A-Yuan has fallen for me. We were hugging and kissing during the day."

Chen Changgeng pretended to savor the moment.

"You! You scoundrel, how dare you deceive my innocent sister!"

"I will never let you get away with this!"

Seeing this, Azi could no longer bear it, and with a roar, she struggled desperately!

The force was so great that the pillar creaked and groaned!

Chen Changgeng chuckled and waved.

"Alright, alright, calm down. I was just teasing you. Ah Yuan wants it, and I haven't given it to her yet!"

"Take a good look at yourself. What are you wearing? And what am I wearing?"

"I have already arranged for your livelihood."

Upon hearing this, Azi lowered her head and was taken aback to see herself dressed as a palace maid.

Then he looked up abruptly and was stunned to see Chen Changgeng dressed as a eunuch.

"You're a eunuch? No, if you were a eunuch, how could you... you're fake!"

Azi's pupils gradually dilated, her expression blank; she was clearly still in shock and had not yet reacted.

"I guess you don't know, but this is the Crown Prince's residence."

"It was pitch black last night, so I don't blame you for not seeing me clearly when you came to assassinate me."

"But I remember you saying something when you came in: 'That corrupt official!' Am I right?"

Azi raised her head slightly, looked around the room, and then looked at Chen Changgeng again, momentarily falling into self-doubt.

"You mean, I killed the wrong person?"

Chen Changgeng shook his head.

"You didn't kill the wrong person; you were tricked."

"If I'm not mistaken, it was the Third Prince Xiao Ce who sent you, wasn't it?"

"Third Prince? What Third Prince? I don't know him!"

"All I know is that my master is Master Huang..."

At this point, Azi suddenly realized, "Huang, isn't that the same as Huang?"

In an instant, the light in Azi's eyes vanished, and she fell into even greater self-doubt!

During the day, Chen Changgeng also asked A-Yuan about the sisters' background.

A-Yuan's memory is incomplete; she only says that the two sisters were the daughters of a wealthy family in a certain place, and that their family was destroyed and their lives ruined by corrupt officials.

After escaping the massacre of their entire family, the sisters became beggars and wandered from place to place. One day, they were taken in by a mysterious person and were secretly trained to become assassins.

From then on, the two men aimed to kill all the corrupt officials in the world, and had been used by the Third Prince for several years.

This means that the two sisters were deceived by the Third Prince, who used them to eliminate dissidents and has killed countless innocent people!

"No, no, Third Master wouldn't lie to me."

"Third Master raised my sister and me, and his kindness to us is immeasurable..."

Azi shook her head in disbelief, then suddenly looked up.

"You corrupt official, you must have been spreading lies and deceiving my sister, and you still weren't satisfied, you wanted to deceive me too!"

"Don't even think about it! I won't fall for your tricks!"

Chen Changgeng smiled slightly, then suddenly stood up and took out the dagger that Azi had used to stab him earlier.

With a ripping sound, he cut the rope and released Azi. Then he handed the dagger to Azi and walked to the door.

"If you don't believe me, come with me for a walk. Let's see what's going on in this mansion."

"If you still think I'm lying to you during this time, the dagger is in your hand."

"You can kill me and then just leave."

"However, don't forget, if you really kill me, A-Yuan will be heartbroken. Even if you leave, she will still come back to this place."

Chen Changgeng raised his hand, took out a piece of paper from his sleeve, and handed it to Azi.

"Your sister wrote this for you, take a look."

"Come find me when you're done reading."

After Chen Changgeng finished speaking, he pushed open the door and walked out, leaving Azi alone in the room.

Azi clenched her fist, unfolded the letter, and her beautiful eyes trembled slightly.

The two sisters share one body and have a habit of exchanging letters. The letters contain their own unique codes, which cannot be faked.

As for the content of the letter, it was just Ah Yuan recounting what she saw and heard in the Crown Prince's residence that day, her joy and happiness practically overflowing from the paper.

A-Yuan never mentioned how she wanted her sister A-Zi to make a choice, only leaving a final sentence.

"Sister, it's been so long since I've stood so comfortably in the sun. If you agree, I'd like to live the life of an ordinary person."

thump!

Azi's mental defenses collapsed instantly. She thought about how the two sisters had been spending day and night in the underground palace because they wanted to practice martial arts to avenge their family.

Not only do they never see the light of day, but they also have no contact with any normal people!

His heart was filled with blood debt, and his eyes were set on revenge!

Ah Zi might be able to live like a walking corpse for the rest of her life, but she knew that her younger sister Ah Yuan couldn't!

"Squeak."

After a while, the door was gently opened.

Azi's eyes were slightly red as she stood next to Chen Changgeng.

"Let's go, I want to see what kind of place this is."

Chen Changgeng smiled gently.

"Hmm, you should take a look, since you still need to do the laundry later!"
