The Princess Seeks Money: The Empress of the Unparalleled Kingdom

Chapter 14

In the middle of the night, when the night was as cold as water, Jiang Duruo suddenly opened her eyes, her usually lazy eyes were shining brightly, she turned her head to look at Li Meihua who was sleeping soundly on the bed, narrowed her eyes, and stood up from the table Get up, quietly and quickly disappear in the inn.

The south city gate is not far from the inn where Jiang Duruo stayed, and she was able to catch the moonlight and see the lanterns hanging above the city gate without even burning a stick of incense.

It's just that Jiang Duruo had an extra heart, she didn't rush over rashly, but secretly watched the movement near the south gate under the eaves not far from the south gate.

At this time, the night was already dark, and the entire Qingyu City was quiet, without the hustle and bustle of the day, and even the slight sound of footsteps on the street at this time seemed particularly abrupt.

Jiang Duruo stretched his neck, and found that on the tower of the South City Gate not far away, there was no one else except a night watchman.

She couldn't help feeling suspicious, could something be wrong?The letter clearly stated that we met at the bottom of this city gate at midnight, but now why is there no one?
She hesitated and became suspicious, and suddenly saw a tall and tall figure appearing under the city gate at some point.

Jiang Duruo rubbed her eyes in surprise, as if she couldn't believe it. She had been staring at the city gate and didn't see anyone coming, so who was the figure that suddenly appeared under the city gate?Is it the person she is waiting for?
But she is still some distance away from the city gate, she can only vaguely discern that the figure is a man's figure, and if she wants to see other things clearly, she can't.

Although I know that things are a bit weird, but if Jiang Duruo gives up at this time, it is absolutely impossible.

Thinking of this, Jiang Duruo's eyes were fixed, and she approached the gate tower lightly. Soon, she was less than a few feet away from the gate tower, and the figure under the gate became clearer and clearer.

It seems familiar, where have you seen it?
Suddenly, the people under the city gate seemed to see her, and suddenly stood still, looking up at her, under the moonlight, the man was tall and tall, with black hair like a waterfall, and the outline of his face gradually became clear.

Jiang Duruo gave a sudden pause and recognized the person coming.

Shang Huaisu—His Royal Highness Hua Guo!

How is he?

Jiang Duruo was startled and suspicious, but her instinctive reaction was to run away, because her intuition told her that nothing good would happen if she met a man like Shang Huaisu!

Seeing that Jiang Duruo had recognized him, Shang Huaisu suddenly smiled slightly, and waved his hands proudly at Jiang Duruo, as if to say—we meet again!
Jiang Duruo turned around and was about to leave, but suddenly heard the sound of chaotic footsteps behind her, she subconsciously looked back, it was Yuguo's city guard, and by clothes, it was still the second elder brother Zhonglisang's man.

She yelled "Oops" in her heart, and immediately understood that she had fallen into Shang Huaisu's trap. She couldn't help but glared fiercely at Shang Huaisu who was under the city gate, but found that there was still Shang Huaisu's figure, and he had already fled away missing.

The anger in Jiang Duruo's heart, I never thought that my aunt, who was smart all her life, would be fooled for a while, and would encounter schemes from a villain like Shang Huaisu.

But right now, she can't care about settling accounts with Shang Huaisu, and besides, she can't find Shang Huaisu, the most important thing right now is to escape quickly, otherwise she will be caught by the second brother, and she can't let her marry her again. up!

Thinking of this, Jiang Duruo was about to run away, but suddenly heard a low voice from behind: "Fifth sister!"

Jiang Duruo's body froze, his heart became cold instantly, and the last little flame of hope was also extinguished.

She should have thought a long time ago that Shang Huaisu is so insidious and cunning, how could she not be fully prepared, if only the city guards were dispatched, she might still have a chance to escape, but if the second elder brother came out in person, then she would definitely not be able to escape Lost.

Jiang Duruo couldn't help but clenched his fists under his clothes, cursing in his heart: Shameless bitch!

"Fifth Sister!" Zhong Lisang called again in a deep voice.

Jiang Duruo had no reason to answer, so she had to stiffen her neck and turn her head around, smiled embarrassingly, and laughed, "Haha, so it's the second brother, what's the matter? Are you coming out to watch the moon in the middle of the night?"

Zhong Lisang's face darkened, he didn't mean to be joking at all, he stepped forward slowly, walked in front of Jiang Duruo, seeing Jiang Duruo's haggard face, he couldn't bear it.

During these days in exile, Zong'er must have suffered a lot!
Zhonglisang couldn't help but sigh: "Fifth sister, come back with me!"

Jiang Duruo couldn't help sighing: "Second brother, are you really going to use me as a pawn in marriage and send me into the vortex of national warfare?"

There was a bit of pain in Zhongli Sang's eyes, but he was more helpless, "Fifth sister, you should have understood a long time ago that as a child of the royal family, since you are born to enjoy more than others, you should naturally bear greater responsibilities. We never had the freedom to choose."

Sure enough, Jiang Duruo was extremely disappointed. How could a prince who had been taught to contribute to the country and endure humiliation since childhood, let her go because of sympathy and affection!

"But I don't want to, I don't want to be a pawn, I don't have freedom, I don't have the right to choose, I'd rather not be this princess!" Jiang Duruo couldn't help but hate.

"But who can decide one's parentage?" Zhong Lisang's tone was full of helplessness.

Jiang Duruo looked up at Zhong Lisang, then at the solemn city guard behind him, behind him was the closed tall city gate, she had no chance of escaping, so she could only lose her momentum and said, "Okay, since I can't escape , this is my life, I will go back with you!"

Zhong Lisang stroked Jiang Duruo's hair distressedly, and comforted him: "Fifth sister, don't be too sad, I have met the third prince of the Hua Kingdom today, he is a good-looking talent, and he is not a treasure at first sight , maybe it's your lover, and I don't know!"

"Hmph!" Jiang Duruo snorted, my dear?Don't be kidding, he is her nemesis at all.

Jiang Duruo had no choice but to follow Zhong Lisang to the Bieyuan in Qingyu City, and wait for the next morning, then return to Shangyang City with the team that greeted the mission.

Early the next morning, Jiang Duruo woke up, finished grooming, and planned to take a breath of fresh air outside, but just as he walked out of the house, he ran into an acquaintance.

"Five princesses, good morning!" The visitor suddenly rang in Jiang Duruo's ear with a bit of joking and complacent laughter.

Jiang Duruo subconsciously jumped back, and when he looked up, his face became more than half dark.

snort!The enemy's road is narrow!Self-inflicted crime, can't live, sister, I'm going to settle accounts with you!
Almost without any hesitation, Jiang Duruo pulled out the dagger from his waist, and stabbed it fiercely at Shang Huaisu's heart. The force was so great that he clearly wanted to kill Shang Huaisu immediately with all his strength. At the same time, he said He roared angrily: "You shameless sissy! You came here early in the morning to find your aunt's bad luck, and take your life!"
