The Princess Chooses Her Husband

Chapter 8

"What's wrong?" Chu Shaoyun asked.

"Say, why did you suddenly want to gamble with me when I bet on my daughter? Why didn't I see you crawl out to bet with me when I bet so many taels of silver?" His Majesty tried to sit up straight, making himself look more imposing.

"Hehe," Chu Shaoyun laughed. He thought to himself, "Nonsense! If you hadn't pushed my savior up, why would I need to come out and bet with you? You've lost to those people anyway. I'll humiliate the Great Princess if I expose her, won't I? She'll be fine then, but her reputation will be ruined."

"Do I look like a money-starved person?" Chu Shaoyun raised his eyebrows and said in a rather dissatisfied tone.

"Well, not exactly!" His Majesty touched his nose. "So what do you want to do? Anyway, I will never go home now, and I just came out! How about I give you an address so that you can find it yourself!" He just hurried to hide away and waited until his boss' anger had almost dissipated on him.

Chu Shaoyun shook his head and said, "That can't be done! What if I go there? It won't be your home! Or what if your family doesn't admit it? I think it's better to follow you and wait to collect the money!"

"But I have to go home for a long time!"

"How long?" Chu Shaoyun raised his eyebrows.

"Haha..." His Majesty thought with a smile, "These guards must have sent a message to the palace these days. My eldest brother must be like a gunpowder barrel these days, so he won't send himself to be blown up! Of course, the longer he waits, the better it gets! I'm afraid that this time he will have to stay outside for more years. Alas, I can't see the scholars next year, and I don't know if my eldest brother will arrange a blind date... I don't think so! Boohoo... I'm sorry for you, my daughter!"

"Probably more than a year!" His Majesty rubbed his nose. Now he knew that it was not easy for my daughter to marry him.

"It doesn't matter. I have plenty of time anyway!" Chu Shaoyun folded his fan and said, "I can't wait any longer. I will leave myself. Anyway, I am now your debt holder. I have to follow you to ask for my debt, lest you run away!"

"You... you can just take the money and leave!" The Emperor was furious. He really did not recognize good people and wanted to drag others into this!

"No!" Chu Shaoyun turned his head haughtily and said to his servant, "Go and move my luggage to this inn. It's just a game wherever you go. I'll follow him!"

"Yes, Young Master!" The servant next to him received the order and left.

"You! Did I agree?" The Emperor was furious.

"What right do you have to disagree?" Chu Shaoyun smiled.

"Er..." The Emperor was speechless.

"Alliance chief!" A man in green whispered on the bed, Chu Shaoyun was leisurely enjoying himself.

"Didn't I tell you? I am now a rich young master in Zhejiang!" Chu Shaoyun said without opening his eyes.

"Yes, Childe. But Childe, why do we have to go with them? We are going to the south of the mountain to participate in the demon-taming assembly! Why did we change the way halfway? And they even followed rich man Zhao. You are an important person in the meeting. We have to go!" The young male servant frowned and reminded him.

"I know, and I believe that even if I don't go, they can also hold a meeting. However, Bai Lin! Do you know what is the most abundant thing in the world?" Chu Shaoyun patted the folding fan in his hand and said leisurely.

"I don't know if there's anything lacking. All I know is that our Martial Union Master didn't attend the Martial Arts Conference and went here to mess around!" Bai Lin helplessly said with a frown.

"Don't say that! I'm under a lot of pressure!" Chu Shaoyun waved his hand and laughed, "Ai! You're still too young. Do you really think that I, the Martial Union Master, can actually command the Martial World? Let me tell you, Bai Lin, my Alliance Master has basically no meaning other than the first up of the group stand and the last up of the carriage rack."

"Alliance chief!" Bai Lin curled her lips. "Then the alliance chief who doesn't even participate in the Martial Arts Conference will not be willing to submit."

"You don't understand!" Chu Shaoyun said with a deep look.

"I don't understand, alliance head, no! Young Master didn't tell me, how could I understand!" Bai Lin curled her lip, "Anyway, you must go to the Kung Fu Championship, and all the predecessors are waiting for you."

"Trust me, Bai Lin, they don't care whether I go or not now. They only care whether I go or not when I fight." Chu Shaoyun was determined and said after thinking for a while, "If I really can't save my face, I'll just take that moneybag Zhao away and go there by the way!"

"Young master!"

"Well, that's a pleasant decision."

Nangong Ruo sat on the dragon seat in his luxurious men's clothes.

"Princess, I've found it!" A man in black quietly knelt at the desk.

"Where did you come from?" Nangong Ruo said without looking up as usual.

"Chu Shaoyun, the new president of the martial arts association caused by the Kung Fu contest two years ago. His foundation is not stable, and many sects are not very convinced of him. On the surface, he acts in a formal manner, but he acts steadily and does everything for his own reason. He came from an official's family in the south of Zhe Dynasty. He was framed by a corrupt official and his whole family was executed, leaving only him alive. Later, he was escorted by his loyal father's Jianghu friends and worshipped by them. He was calm and cruel when he was young. It is said that he was determined to take revenge! After he finished learning, he went down the mountain and found that he had taken revenge. Therefore, he devoted himself into the martial arts world and became the leader."

"Revenge?" Nangong Ruo paused.

"Yes! Four years ago, the princess had ordered an entire country to investigate the old case. However, some ministers found that there were many suspicious points in the case. They had returned to review but were beaten back. The princess was wise. When she browsed through the court, she found that the case was still suspicious. Then she saw that both cases had been investigated back. She had also heard the truth after that. The princess also specially conferred the title of Loyal Duke on her father. Back then, the princess had worked hard day and night to investigate the case countless times. She had also conferred the title of heroes. So it was reasonable that she didn't remember!" The man in black said.

"Wei Jie."

"Your subordinate is here!" The black clothed man suddenly lowered his head.

"Your ability to handle affairs is as good as your ability to flatter people, but I only care about your ability!" Nangong Ruo said coldly.

"This subordinate deserves to die!"

"I don't mean to blame you!" Nangong Ruo didn't look up and continued, "You are responsible for investigating his news, so you naturally know more clearly. Do you think this person is an enemy or a friend to us?"

"Friend! This person looks sloppy, but he is steady inside and is very smart. He has always taken revenge, but his nature is not bad. If he is a friend, he will go all out. If he is an enemy, he will make people feel uneasy to eat and sleep."

"Oh! Then tell me, why did he come to you at this time after being the chief of the union for so long? Did not Cai'er report that the south of Ling'an is going to hold a Kung Fu Championship? My father's position should not be the place he should pass by now!"

"This... could it be a matter concerning Haolan Kingdom?"

###Chapter12,Protecting the Emperor and Queen

"Wei Jie, now is a sensitive period. All abnormal and normal things should be paid attention to. You are my right and left hands, so you should help me. Understand?"

"Got it! Please tell us what to do next!" Wei Jie saluted with cupped fists.

"This person is really a very clever person. I'm afraid that he also knows that Haolan Country is now very close to us, and my father and mother are my weak points, so they are close to them to protect them.

"What's more, he claims that he doesn't know martial arts and is a playboy. On the one hand, he can lower his enemy's vigilance. On the other hand, he can take advantage of the fact that he follows father and mother all day long and plays with them. On the other hand, since he shows his real name, he wants to express his kindness to me so that I won't doubt him. If he doesn't even go to the Kung Fu Championship to protect my parents, he must repay me." Nangong Ruo said lightly.

"Did you send the master who protected father and mother in secret to leave?"

"No, I'm waiting for the princess' instructions."

"I want them to set off immediately. Remember to meet Chu Shaoyun when you get there, in case of injury. Secondly, tell him that I know about him. Ask him to behave himself and don't do anything bad to me. It's necessary to teach him a lesson secretly. Be careful not to get into a civil war. Just make a name for yourself. Most importantly, don't be silly and let the others be exposed to his eyes. Don't be afraid that they may get in touch with him, especially the third group of masters. They can assure me that even my father and mother can't know about their existence, no matter what. Do you understand?"

"Got it!" Wei Jie held back his laughter and said seriously. "I'm going to give you a lesson! How dare you to marry my master as my concubine? You must be kicked in the head by a donkey!"

"What's your ultimate goal?" Nangong Ruo asked, looking at Wei Jie.

"I swear to protect the Emperor and the Empress. Everything else doesn't matter!" Wei Jie said seriously what his master meant and felt that it was a little too much. "The Emperor? The Empress? Hehe... I haven't said it for a long time. I almost spit it out. It's a bit strange for me to say it out loud."

"Yes, this is the only purpose of these people. If anything happens to father and mother, they don't have to come back!"

"This subordinate understands!" Wei Jie's body suddenly stopped. This was a death order.

"How's everything going with Lord Wang?" After asking about the things here, she still had to ask about the national affairs.

"Lord Wang's matters have been basically completed. As soon as the battle begins, Xiwan will go missing!" Wei Jie said with a smile. Sure enough, it was the most interesting to do things with the Princess! He really wanted to see Mo Long know that his mother had been caught. What should he do?

"Well, also be careful not to expose the spies around the Emperor Haolan Kingdom! And some people need to clean up the place. Sometimes, cleaning is the best way to get close to the secret and conduct a justified search!"

"Yes, sir. I'll go and remind Master Wang immediately!"

"Well, that... Wei Jie!"

"Yes, I am!"

"I... Do I look scary?" Nangong Ruo stared at him and asked.

"Why did the Princess say that? She is the most leader I've ever seen. I'm willing to follow the Princess all my life, and I'll never refuse!" Wei Jie expressed his loyalty at once.
