Laughing, the host always wants to escape

Chapter 113 The Regent Has a Beautiful Girl in His Golden House (20)

On the other side, Rongcuo walked out slowly from behind the tree next to him until the figures of several people completely disappeared.

"Your Majesty, do you want me to send someone to chase after them?" Rong Cuo looked at Mu Hanqing's frown and asked.

"Whose people are they?" His tone became a little colder.

"I have checked and it is the left prime minister's men."

"Xiao Chengyu? He is really awesome. I didn't touch him, but he took the initiative to provoke me." Mu Hanqing said in a cold tone.

"Then do you need a subordinate..."

"Don't move yet... We are not suitable to confront him head-on at the moment. As for Tang Cuo, he is just a plaything and is not enough to ruin my plan." Mu Hanqing waved his hand and said calmly, "Go back home first."

"Yes, Your Highness." Rong Cuo followed behind Yu Muhanqing and could clearly feel the chill emanating from him.

At the same time, when Tangcuo opened his eyes again, he was shocked to find that his hands and feet were tightly chained, and he seemed to be in a dark hut.

He looked up at the unfamiliar surroundings and couldn't help but feel scared. "Xiao Ye, where is this?"

[The system is checking the environment for you. This is the residence of Xiao Chengyu, the left prime minister of the Rong Dynasty.]

"Xiao Chengyu? Who is that?"

[The most outstanding civil official of the Rong Dynasty, young but extremely talented, and both he and Mu Hanqing are deeply loved by the people of the Rong Dynasty. However, he and Mu Hanqing have always been at odds, and he is extremely paranoid and crazy by nature, and is not someone that is easy to deal with, so it is not recommended that the host easily provoke him.]

"Oh my god, why didn't you tell me earlier? Now you've exposed the madman's nest. Then this assassination was probably arranged by him, too?"

[That’s right, as the saying goes, there can’t be two tigers in one mountain. The two of them have been fighting for a long time, but they just haven’t fought each other openly yet.]

"Mu Hanqing has made quite a few enemies. In front of him is the Prince of Jing, and in the back is the Prime Minister..." Tang Cuo sighed silently, "What do you think? How do you think the Prime Minister will treat me?"

[According to the plots of other planes of teleportation, the host is usually beaten to death, or crippled, and then sent to King Rong'an to provoke...]

"It's useless. There's really no fun now." Just as Tang Cuo was feeling melancholy, a sound of footsteps slowly approached.

After a moment, the prison door opened and a man walked in. He was dressed in a white shirt, with a cold face and a handsome figure.

His slightly pale face had a soft glow, and he looked like an elegant gentleman. He was indeed worthy of being the first civil official in the Rong Dynasty.

Tang Cuo looked up and stared at the people behind him. They were the ones who chased Mu Hanqing last night. He couldn't help feeling a little uneasy.

"Prime Minister Zuo, this is the person we brought back last night." The man looked at his face carefully, and his fingers hanging by his side kept trembling.

"Ling Jie, I remember the mission I asked you to do was to kill Mu Hanqing, what did you bring back for me?" Xiao Chengyu had a scholarly air, but the words he spoke were extremely oppressive.

Hey, who are you calling a thing?

Tang Cuo narrowed his eyes in dissatisfaction.

Hearing his words, Ling Jie immediately knelt on the ground and prostrated himself in front of him. "Minister Zuo, calm down. We could have killed Mu Hanqing yesterday, but who knew this man would suddenly appear, wearing Mu Hanqing's fur robe and running towards the forest. That's why we recognized the wrong person..."

"Oh?" Hearing his words, Xiao Chengyu shifted his gaze to Tang Cuo's face, took a few steps forward, and said in a gentle tone, "I know you."

Know me?

"You are the prostitute that Mu Hanqing brought back from Yanyu Pavilion. I think your name is... Tangcuo?"

I go, I know all this...

"Left Prime Minister."

"It seems that you also know my identity?" Xiao Chengyu smiled, "As expected, you are the one chosen by Mu Hanqing. You are indeed beautiful and proud."

I don’t want to know either. The key point is that the person just shouted it out.

"You are too kind, Zuo Xiang. I wonder why Zuo Xiang tied me back here..."

"As for me, I originally wanted to let them kill Mu Hanqing, but who knew that you would come out halfway and ruin my plan. Tell me, what should we do?" As he said that, Xiao Chengyu raised his hand and pinched his jaw with some force.

It’s over. He doesn’t even shy away from people now. It seems like he is going to decide my fate.

"Zuo Xiang, I actually didn't hear anything just now..."

"Didn't you hear me?" Xiao Chengyu chuckled, then whispered in his ear, "I said I was going to kill Mu Hanqing. Did you hear me clearly this time?"

I rely on!

Are you still playing like this?

"You have such a pretty face. It's a pity to kill you like this..." Xiao Chengyu let go of his hand, and the guard behind him immediately handed him a handkerchief to wipe his hands.

"Left Prime Minister, the prince will come looking for me. If you kill me, you will most likely be exposed." Tang Cuo pursed his lips.

"Exposed? Looking for you? Are you counting on him to save you? He won't come." Xiao Chengyu's face turned colder as he spoke. "People like him only care about themselves. How could he disrupt his plans for an insignificant person?"

Hearing his words, Tang Cuo's heart couldn't help but tense up: He was right, Mu Hanqing would not openly break up with him because of him now. After all, he was not that important to him.

Seeing that he didn't say anything, Xiao Chengyu smiled slightly, "What a pity, such a pretty little girl, if I were Mu Hanqing, I might fight for her."

"Left Prime Minister, then he..."

"Throw him into the thatched cottage in Yinshan. You guys take care of the rest, but don't kill him all at once. See if I can pry what I want out of his mouth. Also, find someone to spread the news and inform Mu Hanqing." After saying that, Xiao Chengyu left the dark room without staying for long.

The people around him watched him go, then turned to face Tang Cuo. Ling Jie stepped forward, pinched his chin, and flashed a dangerous look in his eyes, "If it weren't for you, we wouldn't have failed.

We will not lose a brother. You must pay for his lost life. We will definitely not let you go."

"Ah? I remember I didn't do anything to them..." Tang Cuo didn't quite understand what he said.

"You did not do it, it was Prime Minister Zuo who did it, but the reason was because of you. If it weren't for you, we would have been able to kill Mu Hanqing today and take the money and leave, instead of having to save his life because of failing to complete the mission."

No, brother, since he was the one who killed the person, you should go find him, why are you putting it on me?

And they're trying to pry information out of me, and I don't know anything yet.

"Boss, why waste so much time talking to him? Just take him away and don't waste any more time." As he said that, the younger brother took out a dagger from his waist and slapped Tang Cuo's face with the blade.

Hearing his words, Ling Jie waved at a few people.

Everyone stepped forward, untied Tangcuo from the wooden stake, then pulled the rope on his wrist and walked towards the carriage at the door.

"Ling Si, go to the Rong'an Palace to spread the news. After you succeed, we will meet at the thatched cottage in the mountains." After he finished speaking, the carriage began to move shakily.

"Okay, boss."
