Quick Wear: The system kidnapped a host through a supermarket
Chapter 77 Asking for Assassination
Liu Jiaojiao didn't care about carrying her own bag. Everyone accompanying the eldest prince felt that Liu Jiaojiao was a little pitiful, but they didn't show it.
The carriage quickly entered the imperial city. Soldiers were guarding both sides of the road and ordinary people gathered on the streets.
Liu Jiaojiao had no intention of lifting the curtain. Even though the eldest prince sent his men to talk to Liu Jiaojiao about all sorts of things several times, Liu Jiaojiao ignored him and just said "yes" or "no" all the way to the gate of the palace.
Liu Jiaojiao knew that the eldest prince wanted to let the people know that Liu Jiaojiao had come and what Liu Jiaojiao looked like, but Liu Jiaojiao did not want to create trouble. If it was the imperial teacher who came, they would definitely not dare to let their subordinates come over to chat.
Liu Jiaojiao got off the carriage with a sullen face.
The eldest prince: "Princess Yongkang, this is my father."
Liu Jiaojiao nodded slightly and said, "The Emperor of Xia is safe."
Emperor Xia: "Princess Yongkang has come from afar and must be exhausted. Please go to the palace and rest first. I have prepared a palace banquet to welcome you."
Liu Jiaojiao: "Okay."
A eunuch led Liu Jiaojiao into the sedan chair, and everyone entered the palace.
As soon as Liu Jiaojiao got into the sedan chair, she opened the small map and quietly memorized the route and the approximate number of people around.
Soon, the sedan chair stopped, and the palace maid asked Liu Jiaojiao to get off the sedan chair and helped her into the palace.
Liu Jiaojiao observed the environment and went into the house.
Palace maid: "Princess Yongkang, the eldest prince will arrive later, please rest first."
Liu Jiaojiao hummed and sat on a chair beside her.
Soon, the eldest prince arrived.
The eldest prince: "Princess Yongkang."
Liu Jiaojiao raised her eyes to glance at the eldest prince, hummed, and said nothing.
The eldest prince said: "Princess Yongkang, please forgive me for what I did to you just now."
Liu Jiaojiao: "I can't forgive you."
The eldest prince: "This..."
The eldest prince didn't know how to continue, and Liu Jiaojiao didn't give him any face at all.
The eldest prince smiled and sat aside.
The eldest prince said: "I am also thinking about the princess. After all, the princess did not bring any ceremonial guards. If the common people offend the princess, it would be better to know her true appearance."
Liu Jiaojiao: "That's also bullying your Great Xia royal family. The sign you gave me belongs to your Great Xia. If you show the sign and still want to die, then that's not my business."
The eldest prince was speechless for a moment and had no way to refute.
Liu Jiaojiao: "It's okay, go back and rest."
The eldest prince took out a stack of banknotes from his arms and said, "This is what my father asked me to pass on to the princess."
Liu Jiaojiao took the banknote and took a look at it. It was worth one hundred gold each, a total of one thousand gold.
Liu Jiaojiao: "What money?"
The eldest prince: "Your reward."
Liu Jiaojiao put the money on the table again and said, "It's not this price. Didn't your father say whether it's a temporary solution or a permanent solution?"
The eldest prince: "This... How do you say it's a temporary solution? How do you say it's a permanent solution?"
Liu Jiaojiao: "Is it okay for me to talk to you?"
The eldest prince: "Is there any secret that I cannot hear?"
Liu Jiaojiao: "It's up to you. This matter is very complicated. If you want to treat the symptoms, I will perform a sacrifice for you. It will rain, but it will only rain for a while. If you want it to rain for a few days, just prepare a few hundred gold. If you want to treat the root cause, I have to look at Feng Shui. Is there any secret in Feng Shui? What do you think?"
The eldest prince: "Princess, allow me to report."
Liu Jiaojiao: "Go ahead. I don't want to keep passing messages. Either you can make the decision directly, or let someone who can make the decision come. I don't have much patience."
The eldest prince bowed and left.
The palace maid quickly brought tea and snacks, and Liu Jiaojiao ate them slowly and leisurely.
Soon, Emperor Xia arrived.
"Your Majesty has arrived."
Liu Jiaojiao heard the eunuch's voice outside the door, dusted off the snack crumbs on her hands and wiped them. When Emperor Xia entered the room, Liu Jiaojiao drank a sip of tea before standing up.
Emperor Xia waved his hand, and the eunuch accompanying him turned around and left, closing the door behind him.
When Liu Jiaojiao saw that the door was closed, she sat down again.
Emperor Xia was stunned for a moment, then smiled and sat aside.
Emperor Xia: "Princess Yongkang must have traveled a long way. I am sorry to bother you."
Liu Jiaojiao: "Your son has said it all, right? If you are anxious, then talk about it. Which one do you choose?"
Emperor Xia: "I think we should treat the root cause. What do you think of Feng Shui, Princess Yongkang?"
Liu Jiaojiao: "Let me use the palace gates and walls. Can you send a few guards to follow me? Has the prince married and left the palace?"
Emperor Xia: "Princess Yongkang is going to enter the palace?"
Liu Jiaojiao: "Well, although it may be more clear to go to your Golden Palace, you may be taboo, so just go to the palace gate and palace wall."
Emperor Xia: "Okay, the princes are only the Sixth Prince, the Third Princess, and the Fourth Princess, who have not yet left the palace to build a mansion."
Liu Jiaojiao: "Then add the doors and walls of the five princes' palaces and the two princesses' palaces. I'll tell you if other people are involved."
Emperor Xia: "Okay, reward?"
Liu Jiaojiao: "It depends on the situation. I don't know how big a trap you are setting. If the trap is too big, I will quit. I can't bear the consequences."
Emperor Xia: "What do you mean?"
Liu Jiaojiao: "I've seen it all along the way, I'm not sure, but I feel like the pit is pretty big."
Emperor Xia frowned and said, "Explain in detail?"
Liu Jiaojiao: "I'm not sure about the details, but do you think there would be a drought for several months for no reason? There must be something wrong. I don't want to know what it is. I just want to find the source of the cause and effect and solve it. Of course, if it's too serious, I won't take action. After all, I have to protect myself first."
Emperor Xia: "Do you think this is a punishment from heaven or someone did it on purpose?"
Liu Jiaojiao: "I don't know. I haven't started investigating yet."
Emperor Xia: "Okay, in that case, then let's do as Princess Yongkang said. The one thousand gold my son gave me will be used for investigation first. Later, my son will give you a token. You can dine at any restaurant in the imperial city and show the token."
Liu Jiaojiao: "Don't do that. If you don't send someone to settle the bill, people will scold me, the Princess of Great Liu, for not being able to afford a meal. Either I pay with the 1,000 gold, or you pay alone."
Emperor Xia: "Okay, as the princess said, use the thousand gold to pay the bill."
Liu Jiaojiao: "Do you have a female official or something? Give me one."
Emperor Xia: "What?"
Liu Jiaojiao: "One is to monitor me for you, and the other is to pass on a message for me."
Emperor Xia: "Okay."
Liu Jiaojiao: "You'd better give a warning to those who have evil intentions. I won't tolerate anyone. If you dare to attack me, be prepared to be exposed in the wilderness."
Emperor Xia: "What do you mean?"
Liu Jiaojiao: "I am solving the problem for you. Do you think the troublemaker will just sit there and watch me solve the problem? What do you think the troublemaker and those with bad intentions will do? They will definitely muddy the waters and fish in troubled waters to achieve their goals. No matter what their goals are, you must promise not to drag me down. I am not interested in your grudges and hatreds."
Emperor Xia: "Okay, what do you think?"
Liu Jiaojiao: "So, you should have some unforgivable death row prisoners here, right?"
Emperor Xia nodded slightly.
Liu Jiaojiao: "During the palace banquet, you release the condemned prisoner and tell him that as long as he can kill me, he can live. If the condemned prisoner attacks me, I will definitely not wait to die. After I kill the condemned prisoner, I will quarrel with you again. I will take this opportunity to warn the evil-minded person. It can also be considered as repairing the plank road. You find a female official who is unfamiliar, wears the clothes of our Great Liu Kingdom, and it will be more convenient for me to follow her. Say she is my maid Liuxing."
Emperor Xia: "Well, has my son seen your maid?"
Liu Jiaojiao: "No, the ones who came out with me were Liuyun and Zhaoxia, and Liuxing is in Daliu Country."
Emperor Xia: "Okay, as you say."
Liu Jiaojiao: "Well, that's it. I'm going to take a break."
Liu Jiaojiao stood up and walked to the soft couch beside her, and Emperor Xia left the room.
Liu Jiaojiao lay on the couch and dozed off for a while until the palace maid informed her that it was time to get dressed.
Liu Jiaojiao got up and washed her face, letting the palace maid play with her hair and change her clothes. Then a strange woman came over.
Woman: "Princess, Liuxing will accompany you to the palace banquet."
Liu Jiaojiao knew that this was the female official that Emperor Xia was looking for.
Liu Jiaojiao hummed, and the fake meteor stood aside.
In fact, it cannot be said to be a fake meteor. The preset information did not say whether Liu Jiaojiao had other maids in the Great Liu Kingdom, or what their names were. They were just random names made up by Liu Jiaojiao.
Soon, the palace banquet began, and Liu Xing followed Liu Jiaojiao to the table.
The Emperor of Xia first said a bunch of polite words, and then introduced the princes and princesses to Liu Jiaojiao one by one, followed by the civil and military officials and their families.
Emperor Xia actually mentioned Liu Jiaojiao's marriage in public, but Liu Jiaojiao directly refused.
Emperor Xia started the banquet with a little embarrassment. Singers and dancers from the dance and music troupe sang and danced, and everyone toasted each other.
Liu Jiaojiao discovered an interesting scene. The third prince's wife looked at the second prince with a somewhat vague look.
Liu Jiaojiao didn't say anything. Emperor Xia glanced at Liu Xing, and Liu Jiaojiao asked Liu Xing to accompany her to the toilet.
Liu Jiaojiao took advantage of the fact that no one was around and asked Liu Xing, "Whose daughter is the Third Prince's Consort?"
Meteor: "Minister of Rites."
Liu Jiaojiao said "oh" meaningfully.
Liu Jiaojiao had just come out of the toilet when she saw a person hiding behind a circular arch not far away.
Liu Jiaojiao snorted softly and whispered, "It came quickly."
Before Liu Xing could react to what Liu Jiaojiao meant, he saw Liu Jiaojiao walking towards the circular arch.
When Liu Jiaojiao was three steps away from the circular arch, a man dressed in eunuch's clothes but with obvious stubble rushed out.
Liu Xing immediately stood in front of Liu Jiaojiao, defensively, and said, "Who is it?"
Liu Jiaojiao pushed away Liu Xing and said, "Do you know who I am? Do you dare to touch Princess Yongkang of the Great Liu Kingdom?"
The man ignored Liu Jiaojiao, took out a dagger from behind and stabbed at her.
Liu Jiaojiao dodged the attack and kicked the man on the back.
Meteor yelled, "There's an assassin! Princess Yongkang was attacked!"
Seeing that the situation was not good, the man stood up and attacked Liu Jiaojiao again.
Liu Jiaojiao grabbed Meteor's belt and, with some force, threw Meteor onto the circular arch.
Liu Jiaojiao: "Don't come down."
The man attacked Liu Jiaojiao, but Liu Jiaojiao was not only able to dodge, but also able to loosen up the man's muscles. With just two moves, the man's left arm and jaw were dislocated.
A group of guards swarmed over. The man saw that the situation was not good and looked at Liu Jiaojiao angrily. Then he clenched the dagger with his right arm and slit his own throat.
Meteors also came down from the arch.
Meteor: "Princess."
Liu Jiaojiao waved her hand and saw Emperor Xia coming over.
Liu Jiaojiao: "Emperor Xia, your family also brought assassins to the welcoming banquet? I see."
The eldest prince hurried over and asked, "Is the princess alright?"
Liu Jiaojiao: "What? You won't pursue the matter if nothing happens, right?"
The eldest prince said: "No, Princess, please calm down first. I will investigate thoroughly to find out which palace this eunuch is from."
Liu Jiaojiao said to a guard, "Let me use your sword."
Before the guard agreed, Liu Jiaojiao snatched the sword from his waist.
Liu Jiaojiao walked towards the corpse. Everyone seemed very scared and kept pulling Emperor Xia back. The guards surrounded them.
Liu Jiaojiao took two steps towards the corpse and cut open the corpse's pants with one sword.
Liu Jiaojiao threw the sword on the ground and said, "It's obvious that he is not a eunuch. Emperor Xia, is your crown prince blind? Or is he just trying to get away with it?"
When everyone saw Liu Jiaojiao throw away the sword, they relaxed their guard again.
Emperor Xia pushed through the crowd and walked over.
Emperor Xia took a look at the corpse and said, "It is indeed not a eunuch. I will give the princess an explanation on this matter."
Liu Jiaojiao: "I'll give you one hour, Meteor, let's go."
Liu Jiaojiao used her Qinggong skills to climb up the courtyard wall.
The eldest prince: "Princess Yongkang, what is this doing?"
Liu Jiaojiao: "Take the things and leave the palace. I dare not eat this welcoming banquet. As soon as I started eating, an assassin came to me. I introduced myself as soon as we met, but he still attacked me. It seems that someone doesn't want me to get involved in this mess. So I might as well take advantage of the situation and go back to the Great Liu Kingdom."
The eldest prince said: "Princess, you can't let us believe that this is directed at you based on your one-sided statement? Besides, people are dead."
Liu Jiaojiao: "I didn't intend to kill him. Look for yourself. He fought me three times in total. I kicked him in the back and broke his arm and jaw. If you think it's necessary for me to direct and act this out myself, I have nothing to say."
Liu Jiaojiao glanced at Liu Xing, then went to the palace where she had rested before.
Liuxing bowed to everyone and then chased after Liu Jiaojiao.
Liu Jiaojiao took her bag and threw it directly into the storage ring. Then she used her lightness skills to walk out of the palace directly from above the palace gate.
The guard wanted to stop her, but was glared back by Liu Jiaojiao.
Meteor: "Princess, where are we going?"
Liu Jiaojiao: "Let's find an inn to change clothes and then find a place to eat. Which restaurant do you think is delicious?"
Meteor: "If you want to eat Xiaguo specialties, you can go to Yipinlou."
Liu Jiaojiao: "Have you eaten it?"
Meteor: “No.”
Liu Jiaojiao: "Then how do you know it tastes good?"
Meteor: "Yipinlou is famous and is one of the best restaurants in the imperial city."
Liu Jiaojiao: "Come on, I'll take you to eat something delicious."
Liu Jiaojiao took Liuxing's arm and walked forward.
Meteor: "Princess, Yipinlou is over there."
Liu Jiaojiao took Liuxing's arm and went in the direction Liuxing said.
Liu Jiaojiao: "Where is the best inn to stay?"
Meteor: "Hongyun Tower, it's close to the palace."
Liu Jiaojiao: "Okay, do you have any clothes? Or should we find a ready-made clothing store?"
Meteor: "In the palace, I didn't have time to get it."
Liu Jiaojiao: "Then buy one first and change it later."
Liu Jiaojiao saw a clothing store and walked in with Liuxing.
Liu Jiaojiao bought a set of clothes for Liuxing, and the two went to the inn again.
They changed their clothes and went to eat.
Liu Jiaojiao: "Where did you work before?"
Meteor: "Women's hospital."
Liu Jiaojiao: "Female doctor or female imperial physician?"
Meteor: "Neither, just a maid cleaning the room."
Liu Jiaojiao: "You are not telling the truth. With your skills, why are you sweeping the palace maids? You are almost at the Jindan stage."
Liu Xing's expression changed. She didn't expect that Liu Jiaojiao could see through her realm. She thought she had not been exposed.
