609 Want to snatch her away
Xiao Yuanshi put on an act.
He left the town with a face full of anger.
He also revealed a piece of news to the spies from the previous dynasty.
He suddenly found out that Ge Chunying had stolen the defensive deployment map.
Hence, he went back and made some arrangements.
The next morning, he led a group of people and quickly headed towards the border.
Those from the previous dynasty and Prince Jin’s people also found that Prince Yi was also with Xiao Yuanshi.
It meant that Xiao Yuanshi was really anxious and felt that the situation was serious.
He even told Prince Yi about it.
Even though they did not follow their original plan, Prince Jin’s people and those from the previous dynasty and the Ge Kingdom were quite satisfied.
The Ge Kingdom had also begun to arrange their troops, preparing for war.
They would tear open a hole at the border and invade.
Prince Jin and his people began to contact those from the previous dynasty more frequently.
Xiao Hanzheng, Shi Qingluo, and the others also noticed that there were many new faces in Northern City, and there were even a few caravans from the Ge Kingdom.
Another two days passed, and Shi Qingluo’s winery officially opened for business.
As soon as the shop was open, those in the queue would already bought all the wine that was to be sold today.
After the buffet that day, the good wine from Nanxi Winery had spread throughout Northern City.
Those who had already tasted it wanted to buy a few jars to drink, and those who had not tried it yet wanted to buy and try it.
Shi Qingluo had announced the opening time ahead of time, which was why there was already a long line of people when the shop opened.
At first, Shi Qingluo had planned to use hunger marketing because there was a limited supply of wine.
Only those who came early managed to buy the wine, and each person was limited to two jars.
Otherwise, the few people in front would have been able to buy it all.
At this time, there was an inn where a Ge Kingdom caravan was staying.
One of them was a middle-aged man with a big beard and a tall and sturdy body.
He was sitting and talking to a few other people.
It was obvious that he was the leader.
After a while, two men who were as tall as him walked in.
The two of them were each holding a jar of white wine and a jar of green bamboo leaves.
“Master, we’ve got the wine.”
“Let me try it,” the bearded man said with a smile.
He had previously heard that Shi Qingluo had brewed a type of white wine that was especially flavorful.
One of them handed over a jar of white wine. “Master, this is white wine.”
The bearded man opened the wine jar, raised it, and took a big gulp.
He felt a fire burning in his chest, and his whole body felt warm.
His deep eyes lit up. “Good wine!”
He took two more sips before putting it down and saying, “Give me the other jar.”
The man handed the green bamboo leaf to him. “Master, please!”
The bearded man took the wine and drank it directly from the wine jar.
“This is not bad, but I still like that white wine. It’s really strong.
“This is the best wine I’ve ever had. If I drink a few sips every day during the winter, I’ll feel warm.
“Shi Qingluo is truly amazing to be able to brew such a strong wine.”
He took a few more sips and said with a smile, “Just for the sake of the strong wine, I will get hold of her no matter what.”
“It is Shi Qingluo’s honor that our master wants to get hold of her.”
“I wish you success in advance, master.”
If he could get hold of Shi Qingluo, she could brew this wine for them.
They also hoped that their master would succeed.
The two of them were so excited that they didn’t notice that someone was following them into the inn and then sending the news back.
They also didn’t realize that the waiter had stopped at the door for a while, secretly listening to their conversation, and then left quietly.
An hour later, Xiao Hanzheng received the news.
He saw that the news said that the person wanted to snatch his little wife, and his expression turned cold.
He then looked at his wife, who was sitting not far away, and his eyes suddenly became warm.
“The North Prince of the Ge Kingdom likes the wine you brewed very much.
“He even bragged that he would take you away.”
Shi Qingluo had some understanding of the Ge Kingdom.
In addition to the royal family, the Ge Kingdom also had the North and South Prince.
The tribes of these two kings were very strong, and they formed a tripartite balance with the royal family.
The North Prince was stronger than the South Prince, and he was also the God of War for the Ge Kingdom.
Shi Qingluo was not surprised that the North Prince would like the wine she brewed.
The Ge Kingdom was a tribe from the grasslands, so it was normal for them to prefer strong alcohol.
However, Shi Qingluo was speechless at the thought of snatching her back. The Ge Kingdom is really too much. They like the wine I brew and want to grab hold of me. Why don’t they go to heaven? ”
“The North Prince is the most overbearing person in the Ge Kingdom,” Xiao Hanzheng sneered. “He’s even more arrogant.
“Whoever he likes, he always takes them by force. He even got hold of the concubines of the Ge Kingdom’s emperor.
“In the Ge Kingdom, it’s said that there’s nothing he can’t get, except for the throne.
“There are also people who say that he didn’t try to seize the throne not because he couldn’t, but because he didn’t like to manage a country. He preferred freedom.
“Although the imperial family is afraid of the North Prince, they still put him in important positions.”
He had fought with the North Prince in his previous life.
Therefore, he was able to recognize him the moment he entered the city, even though he had deliberately grown a big beard to hide his identity.
Shi Qingluo rolled his eyes and said, “Then I’ll let him fail here.”
It would not be that easy to catch her.
“Did the North Prince disguise himself as a merchant caravan and come to Northern City for the treasure?” she asked.
On the day Xiao Hanzheng’s scumbag father left Northern City, her young husband had sent spies to keep an eye on the city gates.
They would pay attention to any suspicious person who entered the city.
He suspected that there might be people from the Ge Kingdom coming for the treasure, and it seemed like he was right again.
Xiao Hanzheng nodded. “I’m sure they’re here for the treasure.”
I just didn’t expect the North Prince to come in person. He’s really bold.”
“Isn’t he afraid that Prince Jin will suddenly catch him?” Shi Qingluo asked with a smile.
Xiao Hanzheng sneered.
“He must have prepared a backup plan. He may look reckless and arrogant, but he’s good at scheming. He’s not the kind of brawny but simple-minded person.”
“That’s for sure,” Shi Qingluo said.
“If he had been only brawny and simple-minded, he wouldn’t have become the God of War in the Ge Kingdom.”
In a war, no matter how strong an individual’s martial strength was, he might not be able to win the war.
After all, many ants could kill an elephant.
Being a war god meant that he had a high chance of winning.
Other than being good at attacking, he was also smart and knew tactics.
“This time, you should work hard and keep him in Daliang.”
The Ge Kingdom had spent a lot of money in exchange for the young prince that her young husband and the others had captured.
Next time, they would let the Ge Kingdom exchange for their God of War, the North Prince.
“We’re thinking of the same thing again,” Xiao Hanzheng said with a chuckle.
“And also, Ge Chunying escaped from the town and the coachman had a sudden death.”
Shi Qingluo raised an eyebrow. “Did Ge Chunying do this?”
Xiao Hanzheng shook his head. “Not that. The second prince’s men had given the coachman a slow-acting poison. He died from the poison suddenly.”
Shi Qingluo nodded. “I see.”
She was saying that Ge Chunying’s hands had been crippled.
Now, she could only strenuously hold a spoon to eat.
She couldn’t even hold a pair of chopsticks.
She didn’t seem like she could deal with the coachman.
“She wouldn’t have gone to find Ge Chunru right?” she asked with a smile.
