On the wedding night, the substitute princess cured the war king's poison

Xiao Liu and several guards met Xiao Ding head-on, and they instinctively wanted to kneel down.

Xiao Ding raised his hand and said: "Without courtesy, don't let outsiders know our identities for the time being."

"Yes."

They hurried downstairs, some went to order the cook to cook, while others went to inform shopkeeper Qi.

"Shopkeeper, the two distinguished guests upstairs want us to ask the gentleman from the teahouse to give us a book."

Qi Hu glanced at the heavily surrounded officers and soldiers outside, who was having a headache, and wondered: "It's already this time, are they still in the mood to listen to books and show off?"

"Hey, I didn't expect you, the shopkeeper, to recognize their identities." Xiao Liu said mysteriously.

"What are their identities?"

Xiao Liu lowered his voice and leaned into his ear: "The distinguished guest upstairs is our master. She asked us to keep quiet. They are here for a private visit incognito."

"Ah, damn it, I didn't recognize it." Qi Hu felt excited.

Thinking that I had accidentally defended my master just now, I felt a little lucky. Fortunately, I didn't embarrass my master.

"You immediately arrange the best meals for the master, and I'll go ask the storyteller."

Xiaoliu said: "It has been arranged, and there are people waiting for them upstairs."

"Okay, treat them carefully and don't let anyone disturb their enjoyment."

After Qi Hu finished speaking, he quickly left the store.

Guo Jia saw him coming out and stepped forward to block the way: "Wait a minute, shopkeeper Qi, hand over those two prisoners quickly, otherwise don't blame me for being rude."

"Master Guo, don't interfere with my important business, otherwise... you can do it yourself." Qi Hu drew his sword and threatened: "Don't open your mouth and slander others as important criminals of the imperial court. You may die one day without knowing how, and I'm afraid you will have to It affects all nine clans.”

Hearing this, Guo Jia was a little shocked: "You... you are a servant of the prince's palace, you have such a strong tone."

"I'm giving you a chance to withdraw your troops quickly, otherwise you will be killed if you leave the defense without permission."

After Qi Hu finished speaking, he went straight to the teahouse opposite.

Seeing his calm and confident look, Guo Jia scolded him: "What a coward as a princess, you dare to put on airs in front of this commander. When you were an official, you didn't even know where to farm."

The deputy commander advised: "Mr. Guo, we might as well withdraw our troops and return to our posts. If today's incident is reported to the Prime Minister, it may be detrimental to us."

"What are you afraid of? The regent didn't even attend the royal funeral. He doesn't know when he will come back. Prime Minister Cao will not care about such a trivial matter like ours for my father's sake."

"However, the matter of catching criminals is indeed not the responsibility of our city defense department. Why not leave it to Mr. Fu Yin?"

"No, Mr. Liu is greedy for life and afraid of death. I'm afraid he doesn't dare to come to Zuixian Pavilion to arrest people."

But when Guo Jia finished speaking, he saw Liu Qian coming with a group of government officials.

Guo Jia hurried up to greet you and greeted with a smile: "Master Liu, you are finally here. Our Dongcheng soldiers and horses are ready to cooperate with you to capture the key criminals."

Unexpectedly, Liu Qian's intentions were different from his.

"I heard that the prisoner entered Zuixian Pavilion. Mr. Guo, I advise you to withdraw your troops as soon as possible. This expensive land is the property of the regent and princess, and you can't afford to offend it."

"However, the prisoner beat my brother Guo Rui to half a disability. He is so vicious and evil, how can you let them go so easily." Guo Jia gritted his teeth: "I must personally execute him."

Liu Qian asked cautiously: "Master Guo, can you investigate the origins of those two people?"

"I don't know yet, but he seems to be a merchant."

"Master Guo, if they are merchants, why don't they bring any attendants? How can they beat more than a dozen people with one hand?"

"Master Liu, what do you mean?"

Liu Qian stroked his beard and said, "Master Guo, the criminal you are talking about probably has a lot of background. You should take care of yourself."
