The Princess Seeks Money: The Empress of the Unparalleled Kingdom

Chapter 178 Listening to the Story

In this kind of place, the ones who have disappeared are the ones who have a case. If they dare to make such a blatant disturbance, others must think that they are ordinary butchers, and they have nothing to fear, so they are so arrogant.

"Father, you old man knows how to joke. If I don't kill pigs, who will earn money for you to see a doctor tomorrow? How much money you have spent on this disease, but it won't get better. Thanks to my good pig killing skills, I have money to pay for it." You are seeing a doctor!" Jiang Duruo sat back on his seat again, poured a bowl of tea for the old man, and said, "Don't worry about it so much, old man, just stop seeing your illness and drink your tea!"

"Hey, good." Shang Huaisu replied in a sly voice. If she continued to make up Jiang Duruo's nonsense, she still didn't know what outrageous story she was going to make up. In order to prevent things from getting out of control, Shang Huaisu made a wise choice. Shut up.

Jiang Duruo was very satisfied with Shang Huaisu's reaction, raised his eyebrows triumphantly, poured a bowl of tea for Shang Huaisu diligently, and said with a smile: "Father, you are getting older, drink more water."

As soon as Jiang Duruo finished speaking, he heard the sound of a gong in the middle of the teahouse lobby, and then the old man who told the joke said with a smile: "People from the south, people from the north, those who walk the streets and alleys, those who are good at business, don't worry." It doesn't matter where you come from, where you are going, what you do, meeting is fate, and now we meet in this teahouse, old man, let me tell you the latest gossip, you are rich Hold a money game, hold a personal game if you don’t have money, and amuse everyone.”

"Papa..." Suddenly, there was a burst of warm applause.

Jiang Duruo and Shang Huaisu couldn't help but sit up straight, the purpose of their coming here was to inquire about news, and now that they came here in a serious manner, they naturally had to prick up their ears to listen.

"If you want to talk about this Yucheng, why is it named Yucheng, do you know?" The old man asked with a mysterious smile.

Everyone couldn't help shaking their heads, and some impatient guest officials couldn't help but say: "Old man, don't be fooled, tell the story quickly, you have done it well, and the uncle will reward you!"

When the old man heard it, he was overjoyed immediately, and hurriedly said: "Okay, the speech is not good, you take care of it!"

The old man said politely, and continued: "The reason why Yucheng is called Yucheng is because more than 100 years ago, Yucheng was a battleground for military strategists, and the people were struggling for years. A capable monarch established a firm foothold on the Qingyue Continent and allowed the Xi Kingdom to live a peaceful life. At that time, the ruler of the Xi Kingdom hoped that there would be no more wars here, so the city was named Yucheng, which means no danger. .”

"But now Yucheng is not peaceful." After the old man finished speaking, he paused again, picked up his tea bowl and took a sip of tea.

Seeing that the old man started to play tricks again, everyone couldn't help asking anxiously: "Why is it so unfair?"

Hearing someone asked why it was unfair, the old man was satisfied and continued: "If you want to talk about what is unfair, we have to start with the national teacher of Xi Kingdom."

The old man babbled on, from the origin of the name of Yucheng to the history of the success of the national teacher of the state of Xi. Vendors from other countries don't have the chance to hear such exciting stories on weekdays, so they can't get enough of each one.

But this made Jiang Duruo very anxious, there was not a piece of news she wanted to hear, if the old man's chattering trend continued, even when it was dark, he would not be able to get to the point!

Thinking of this, she turned her bright eyes, and said with an idea: "Old man, don't you have any new stories?"

The old man was in the midst of his story, and it was naturally unpleasant to be suddenly planned, especially when the person who interrupted him expressed doubts about his storytelling, which made him very unhappy.

The old man looked in the direction where Jiang Duruo's voice came from, and saw Jiang Duruo, who had a big shoulder and a round waist, and a face full of flesh. He swallowed in fright, and the unhappiness on his face disappeared instantly. He quickly put on a flattering smile, and said with a smile : "Guest officer, where are you talking? Who doesn't know that my old Zhaotou is in a radius of ten miles. He is a top-notch storyteller. He always tells the latest stories!"

Jiang Duruo stood up unhurriedly. Seeing that the customers around him were also attracted, he said slowly: "Old Zhao, don't fool me. I've come to accompany my father to see a doctor. I have been to Luocheng several times. Yes, I have also gone to our teahouse to listen to the story several times, and this is what you told last month!"

The audience listened, some frowned suspiciously, nodded in agreement, and some were curious and gossip, all looked at Old Zhao with puzzled faces, wanting to see how he would respond.

Old Zhaotou blushed and said with a smile: "Guest officer, if you say so, then you are my old Zhaotou's repeat customer, then you should know that my old Zhaotou always lays the groundwork first and then tells the story , the pavement is done, and the story is wonderful!"

When Jiang Duruo heard it, he smiled and said: "You are right, but you have been laying the groundwork for a long time, so you should have an orgasm, right? Customers here who are in a hurry to do business, how can they wait!"

"That's right, that's right, tell me quickly, I'm going to sell the goods!" Suddenly, several merchants booed.

Seeing that Jiang Duruo provoked the emotions of the audience, Old Zhao was afraid that there would be trouble after a long time, and then the boss of the teahouse would not allow him to tell stories here.

Thinking of this, he quickly apologized and said with a smile: "Okay, okay, in order to take care of the customers who are in a hurry to get the goods, I will quickly get to the point, okay?"

After Old Zhao finished speaking, he coughed, drank another bowl of tea, and then said mysteriously: "Everyone, why is this Yucheng not peaceful? It turns out that a big event happened half a month ago."

"All of you are doing business among different countries, and you should have heard of a recent major event, which is the marriage between Huaguo and Yuguo."

"But it's a coincidence that Princess Qi Ru, who was supposed to marry to Hua, was robbed halfway to Hua and disappeared."

"Everyone, do you know where did the princess of Yuguo go? Who was robbed?" The old man looked at the crowd mysteriously. National Teacher, Mu Yunxi!"

As soon as these words came out, there was an uproar immediately. Seeing that the effect had been achieved, the old man was very satisfied and stroked his beard happily.

Jiang Duruo couldn't help frowning, he was very surprised, he didn't expect that even the neighbors in the market already knew about it, so did the emperor also know about it?But if the emperor already knew, why didn't he send someone to look for her?
She glanced at Shang Huaisu suspiciously, but seeing Shang Huaisu's face was calm, she couldn't help asking in a low voice: "Are you not surprised at all?"
