Chapter 532 - 532 His son was really a fox, right?
532 His son was really a fox, right?
Very quickly, Shi Qingluo walked over with Xiao Hanzheng’s mother and the others.
Their family chatted and laughed as they entered the courtyard.
Xi Rong and Xi Rui followed them for dinner.
Even the third prince used the excuse that he had work to do here in order to stay for a free meal.
Xiao Yuanshi was the only one who was ignored.
He was extremely embarrassed.
Xiao Yuanshi stood at the door, looking at the disappearing figures of the group. In addition to being angry, he was more panicked and confused.
He had always thought that as long as he turned around, Kong Yuelan would happily reconcile with him.
Only now did he realize that he had been overthinking it.
Before this, he had also thought that Prince Yi wanted to marry Kong Yuelan as his princess consort because of Xiao Hanzheng and Shi Qingluo.
But now he was not sure.
Which prince would go to help a woman in the kitchen?
Even he, who had once been a farmer’s son, could not have done such a thing.
Even if Prince Yi wanted to win over Xiao Hanzheng and his wife, he didn’t have to lower his status to this extent.
Then, he felt pain on his face, and he was furious.
Xiao Hanzheng was an unfilial son.
He had deliberately helped Prince Yi deal with his father.
He didn’t follow them shamelessly, but returned to the inn as he swung his sleeves to express his anger.
When he saw his own appearance in the mirror, Xiao Yuanshi suddenly felt like he was about to collapse.
No wonder Mdm Kong had despised him so much before.
He could not even see his original handsome appearance now.
Prince Yi, that bastard, was really bad!
In the next two days, Xiao Yuanshi didn’t appear in front of Kong Yuelan. He stayed in the inn to speed up his recovery.
The town doctor’s medical skills were limited.
He had applied the medicine for two days, but it had only subsided a little. He really didn’t want to go out and meet others.
Prince Yi secretly left the small town and secretly escorted Yelu Deguang, the little prince of Ge Kingdom, into the capital.
Xiao Hanzheng suggested that it would be better to send Yelu Deguang to the capital as a hostage.
Although Yelu Deguang seemed to have yet to established his existence in the Ge Kingdom in the past, he was actually the favorite son of the Ge Emperor.
He was also a battle general who was born with great strength, courage, and cruelty.
It would be a disaster for the people of Daliang at the border if Yelu Deguang were to escape back to the Ge Kingdom by accident.
Liang Yulin had only heard this from Xiao Hanzheng, but he trusted him unconditionally.
Of course, if he didn’t believe his eldest son, who else would he believe?
And because he was worried about others escorting Yelu Deguang to the capital, Liang Yulin could only do it himself, temporarily leaving the matters of the canned food workshop at the border to Shi Qingluo.
In this regard, Xiao Yuanshi couldn’t do it even if he didn’t break off his relationship with them.
Three days later, Xiao Yuanshi’s face was no longer swollen, and he appeared in Kong Yuelan’s courtyard again.
Mother Xiao and Xiao Baili followed Shi Qingluo to the can workshop to help out.
They were good at cooking, so they taught the workers how to cook all kinds of canned meat.
Xiao Yuanshi didn’t see anyone in the small courtyard, so he went to the canned food workshop.
However, he was stopped at the door.
He could only let someone go in and report, but Mother Xiao and Shi Qingluo were too lazy to bother with him and did not meet up with him.
Xiao Yuanshi was so angry that he could only go to Xiao Hanzheng.
He met the third prince in the office, but found that Prince Yi was gone.
After he went in and sat down, he asked Xiao Hanzheng, “Where’s Prince Yi?”
Xiao Hanzheng looked down at his work. “He went out to collect mutton.”
This was the excuse they used to cover Prince Yi’s escape.
Xiao Yuanshi was also paying attention to the news outside.
He had heard that Prince Yi had brought people to collect meat.
But wasn’t it taking too long?
With Prince Yi’s interest to be close to Kong Yuelan, he should have returned by now.
“When are you going back to Heyang County? ” he asked.
Xiao Hanzheng continued to write with his head down. “It’ll take some time.
“If you want to go to Heyang County for an examination, then go by yourself.”
Prince Yi had secretly escorted Yelu Deguangh back to the capital, so he could only help to guard this place for the time being.
Since Yelu Deguang had been captured here, the Ge Kingdom would definitely try to rescue him.
If he were to leave, this place would be in trouble.
Fortunately, Heyang County was on the right track and Fei Yuzhe could handle many things.
If they couldn’t handle it, they would get someone to come over to handle it as fast as possible.
If it was urgent, he would use a carrier pigeon, so he did his work here.
Hearing his words, Xiao Yuanshi became even more wary.
“What about Yelu Deguang?” he suddenly asked.
“Where’s that Yelu Deguang you guys captured alive? ”
Xiao Hanzheng, who had been working with his head down, raised his head and looked at his scumbag father. “Are you very concerned about that little prince from the Ge Kingdom? ”
Xiao Yuanshi’s eyes flickered. “I’m just asking out of curiosity.”
Xiao Hanzheng sneered. “I advise you not to ask.
“If you’re asking for information for someone else, then you shouldn’t.”
He guessed Xiao Yuanshi’s thoughts.
He smiled embarrassedly. “Alright, I won’t ask anymore.”
He had indeed met Prince Jin’s men this morning, who wanted him to inquire about Yelu Deguang’s whereabouts.
Who knew that Xiao Hanzheng was so sensitive that he actually found out.
However, he was sure of one thing.
Prince Yi had gone to collect meat for a few days and hadn’t come back. There must be something wrong.
Yelu Deguang shouldn’t be here either.
Xiao Hanzheng looked at his scumbag father’s face and knew that he had suspected something.
But it didn’t matter.
Prince Yi should have safely left Prince Jin’s surveillance radius, and those from the previous dynasty and the Ge Kingdom.
“Your relationship with Prince Jin is getting better and better.” Xiao Hanzheng said meaningfully.
He had always been monitoring his scumbag father.
Xiao Yuanshi also knew that Xiao Hanzheng knew that he had met Prince Jin’s men in the morning.
His son’s methods were getting more and more powerful, and the fear in his heart was getting deeper.
He put on a helpless expression and sighed. “One who is unwilling to take risks will not achieve great things. I’m also here for the treasure map, so I can only pretend to be supporting Prince Jin.”
Xiao Hanzheng looked at him with a half-smile and said, “I’m afraid it’s not just the treasure map, there’s also the fifty thousand taels.”
He thought Xiao Hanzheng didn’t know that Ge Chunru had received 50,000 taels from Prince Jin.
He would use this to threaten and take advantage of his scumbag father.
Xiao Yuanshi was speechless.
His son was really a fox, right?
His son’s straightforward approach was becoming more and more like his bad daughter-in-law. It was too annoying.
He smiled awkwardly. “I’m just taking the opportunity to break into the enemy’s territory.”
At the mention of it, he also wanted to strangle Ge Chunru.
That woman was really a jinx.
He had destroyed his plans and deployment in the northern border time and time again.
She received 50,000 taels of silver and gave it to Ge Chunyi.
He was forced by Prince Jin’s men to help him with some matters in private.
Now that Xiao Hanzheng had pointed it out, he was actually quite embarrassed and could only find an excuse to brush it off.
Xiao Hanzheng just warned his scumbag father not to interfere in things that he shouldn’t. “If you say so, then it’s considered to be.”
Xiao Yuanshi was speechless. What did he mean by “considered”?
However, it wasn’t good to inquire about Prince Yi and Yelu Deguang’s news, as his son was too sharp and difficult to deal with.
Sigh, he must have been out of his mind to break off his relationship with such a powerful son for Ge Chunru, that jinx.
Otherwise, if he and his son worked together, would they still have to worry about not being able gain some glory at the northern border?
Just then, Xiao Hanzheng’s man came in, handed him a letter, and then left quickly.
Xiao Hanzheng opened the letter and found that it was from Zhuojun.
The higher-ups were clearly inquiring about Yelu Deguang’s news, meaning that the people of the previous dynasty had asked her to.
These people were very concerned about Yelu Deguang’s matters.
Xiao Hanzheng’s lips curved into a playful smile. He suddenly looked at Xiao Yuanshi and said, “If you’re free, can you help me investigate something?”
