Looking for another good match, Hou Menjiaojiao turns around and marries a villain

This trip to Qinggu was the first time Xie Chunchao and her women's army performed a mission in full view of the public. Fortunately, they completed it well.

The emperor was overjoyed and not only rewarded Xie Chunchao with many rare things, but also rewarded the officers and soldiers of the Detachment of Women.

Xie Chunchao stayed in the palace for three or two days, and then left the palace and returned to his princess mansion.

During this period, General Pei came as promised to teach her how to use the horizontal sword. General Pei was indeed the person Xie Ningyu praised. With the help of General Pei, her sword skills improved by leaps and bounds. Although she still had the flaw of insufficient internal strength, she was undoubtedly better than before. Made a qualitative progress.

The weather was getting hotter and hotter, and Xie Chunchao would sweat profusely every time he finished practicing Heng Dao in the martial arts training ground.

Under the cold light, she finished practicing the last set of moves and put the horizontal sword into its sheath. Upon seeing this, Yu Ning, who had been standing by, quickly stepped forward and wiped the sweat from Xie Chunchao's forehead with the soft silk handkerchief in her hand.

"Your Highness the Princess." The white-faced and beardless eunuch stepped forward quickly and said, "Your Highness the Crown Prince invites you."

"Okay, I'll come right away."

Xie Chunchao put on clean and fresh clothes and headed to the courtyard where his brother lived.

That's right, her brother still hasn't returned to his East Palace. He lives here every day, causing her princess mansion to be almost destroyed by those old ministers.

For some reason, my brother has not decided on a candidate for marriage.

"Brother." Xie Chunchao pushed the door open and asked, "Why did you call me here today?"

Xie Ningyu said, "The case of Bai Zhi has been found out."

Xie Chunchao pinched his fingertips and asked, "Which country is she sent from?"

Could it be Xia Guo?

Then... did Lin Jingrong know her before?

"It's Shengguo."

"Shengguo?" Xie Chunchao was shocked, "How could it be Shengguo?"

Xie Ningyu was a little surprised by Xie Chunchao's reaction, but she didn't ask her. She just said, "According to reliable information, Bai Zhi and Prime Minister Sheng Guo are inseparable."

"She is most likely an outstanding talent trained by Prime Minister Sheng Guo."

Prime Minister Sheng Guo is a young genius with a far-reaching reputation. When he was fourteen years old, he made great contributions to Sheng Guo and firmly held the position of Prime Minister.

He and Ning Heng of Chu State are known as the two outstanding men of the world. Both of them are young men who have been outstanding since childhood.

Even Xie Chunchao had heard rumors about this prime minister of the Sheng Kingdom. He heard that he was handsome, extremely smart, and could play the piano well...

He is the most famous handsome man in Sheng Kingdom.

Xie Chunchao tapped the table and said in a deep voice, "Brother, both Xia and Sheng have sent people deep into our country, but we know too little about them."

"What do you mean, sister?"

Xie Chunchao: "As the saying goes, if you know the enemy and know the enemy, you will be victorious in every battle. I want to cultivate a group of high-level craftsmen to get into the other two countries to inform us."

Xie Ningyu nodded in support of Xie Chunchao's idea almost without thinking, "What do you need me to do for you?"

Xie Chunchao was not polite to Xie Ningyu and said bluntly, "I need my brother to help me find a group of reliable people who are proficient in the customs of the other two countries."

She is short of people, but not money.

Xie Ningyu used to be stationed at the border and knew many businessmen traveling from various countries. If these people could develop, they would be the best spies. However, it is not easy for businessmen to make huge profits since ancient times.

"Okay, I'll try my best to help you find it."

Once Xie Chunchao decides to do something, he will get into it wholeheartedly, from selecting people to training and investing funds.

Xie Chunchao's small treasury is becoming less and less visible to the naked eye, and Xie Chunchao, who used to be very luxurious, has become frugal.

But this couldn't be done overnight. She had been busy for more than half a month, and she had just selected the candidates.

"Have you heard? Xia Guoli is the crown prince."

Xie Chunchao was reading messages from various places in the house that day. Chu State had also trained spies before, but due to the change of throne, this line was broken again.

While Xie Chunchao was busy with this matter during this period, he found this almost forgotten thread again.

After she simply sorted it out and released the funds, they had already set up shop in the two countries in midsummer.

There are teahouses and brothels and red houses among them. They are all places where people are mixed, and it is also convenient for them to find useful information.

"Who is he appointed? Is it the second prince born to the queen or the fourth prince born to the noble concubine?"

"I heard that these two princes are very good."

"No, it's the fifth prince."

"Fifth Prince? Why have I never heard of him before?"

"I heard that he had been ill before, and he and his mother had been recuperating in a Buddhist temple. Now that he is in good health, he was recalled."

"Why would you make a prince who lives in a Buddhist temple the crown prince?"

"I heard that the second prince and the fourth prince were dead and disabled, and he was the only one left, so I made him the prince."

"The old emperor of the Xia Kingdom is also on his deathbed. It is estimated that the newly minted prince will be the lord of the Xia Kingdom soon."

The battle for the throne of the Xia Kingdom has been in full swing for several years. The two princes were coming and going, and the swords were flashing. No one expected that the final throne would fall into the hands of an unknown prince.

It's really unbelievable.

Everyone is also full of curiosity about this mysterious fifth prince and wants to know what method he used to obtain the position of prince.

Some people said that the death and disability of the other two princes had something to do with him. Some people said that the fifth prince was the emperor's favorite son, and the previous two princes were nothing more than shields for the fifth prince.

For a time, there were many opinions, but no one had a definite result.

The newly appointed Crown Prince is quite low-key, and the only rumors among the people are that he is as good-looking as an immortal in heaven.

Xie Chunchao unknowingly lost his mind while listening to the chatter of the little girls outside the corridor. The fifth prince...

For some reason, she always felt that she should know this fifth prince.

She then shook her head again, wondering what nonsense she was thinking about.

However, the newly appointed Crown Prince of Xia Kingdom really needs to pay more attention to him. After all, if nothing unexpected happens, he will be their strong enemy in the future.

Thinking of this, Xie Chunchao wrote in a letter sent to the Xia Kingdom, [Collecting information about the Xia Crown Prince and sending it. ]

Thousands of miles away in the Kingdom of Xia, on the jade steps, the palace lanterns flickered and cigarette smoke swirled. A jade-faced man with a fairy-like face sat in front of the desk with his head propped up on one hand, a waterfall of black silk flowing down his lips. Without blinking, a pair of slender peach blossom eyes looked at the memorial on the table with neither joy nor sorrow.

Suddenly a man in black appeared in front of the palace and said in a deep voice, "Your Highness, several unusual shops have been discovered in the city, and they are suspected to be spies from other countries."

"Which country are you from?" The man's voice was as cold as jade, cold to the bone.

"Chu State."

The man suddenly raised his head and asked, "Chu State? What news are they interested in recently?"

The man in black said, "They are currently searching for information about you, His Royal Highness."

The man's eyes flickered and he said for a long time, "I deliberately spread some bad news to them."

The man in black was puzzled but obedient, "Yes."

"Wait a minute," the man said, "I want something good."
