Daily Intelligence System: Don't Kill Me, Honey!

Chapter 1500: Chapter 341: Wang Baobao: Chen 94, Where Are You Taking My Sister?

Ah Da frowned and said, ”Master He, your foresight is truly remarkable.”

He Yishou replied, ”The Commandery Princess acts impulsively. We must advise her to be cautious and prudent!”

Upon hearing this, Ah Da nodded gently, ”Yes, what Elder He says is very true. However, Elder, it seems that someone has discovered the Commandery Princess’s whereabouts. What should we do now?”

Elder He paused in silence and said, ”We have done all we can. The rest is up to fate.”

Elder Turtle said, ”Yes, leave it to fate.”

...

Swish,

Bam!

Fireworks burst in the sky. Meanwhile, inside the Magistrate’s government office, Magistrate Feng Bisheng was toasting Tuomu, expressing his admiration with genuine respect and flattery, clearly eager to latch onto Tuomu as a powerful ally.

Tuomu was also courteously chatting with Feng Bisheng.

They talked about officialdom, about the Prime Minister, Lord Tuotuo, exchanging drinks in a harmonious atmosphere.

Just then, Feng Bisheng, slightly tipsy, swayed over to Tuomu with a wine cup in hand, raising it, ”Mr. Wu, I toast to you. With your talent, you ought to be a pillar of the nation; being merely one of the Qincha Eight Guards is a waste!”

Hearing this, Tuomu waved his hand repeatedly, ”Oh no, you’re exaggerating, you’re exaggerating.”

”No, no, my lord, not an exaggeration in the least. What I say comes from the heart.”

”Once this event concludes, I will surely send a memorial to Your Majesty, to let His Majesty make use of your abilities in the imperial court.”

Feng Bisheng, inebriated, looked at Tuomu, and Tuomu, hearing Feng Bisheng’s flattery, was also visibly pleased. Yet, just as Feng Bisheng was about to utter more sycophantic words, suddenly a firework shot up and exploded outside.

Feng Bisheng frowned, ”Who’s so bold in the city, not knowing I’m drinking with Mr. Wu? It’s spoiling the fun, spoiling the fun...”

”Mr. Wu...”

”Get away!”

Feng Bisheng still tried to persuade Tuomu to drink, but who would have thought that Tuomu’s eyes suddenly widened in alarm as he shoved Feng Bisheng aside.

”Ouch!”

Feng Bisheng landed on the ground with a thud, spilling wine all over himself, bewildered, ”Mr. Wu, have I offended you somehow?”

But there was no response from Tuomu, as Tuomu had already rushed out, standing at the doorway, shouting, ”From which direction did the fireworks come?”

Upon hearing this, a guard at the door pointed in the direction of Cheng Garden, ”Cheng Garden!”

With those words, Tuomu’s scalp tingled with dread; the Commandery Princess was in trouble, a matter of life and death!

Just saying this, Mr. Wu prepared to leave, but Feng Bisheng, still reeking of alcohol, climbed to his feet and called after him, ”Mr. Wu, hic~ where are you going? Let’s continue drinking.”

Hearing this, Tuomu whipped around, looking at Feng Bisheng, a thousand fires of rage burning within him. If it hadn’t been for this fool detaining me with drink, I’d have been in Cheng Garden and the Commandery Princess wouldn’t have fled.

At this thought, Tuomu was furious, roaring, ”Drink, drink, and you’ll lose your head!”

”Scoundrel!”

Tuomu said this as he headed straight for the door.

Feng Bisheng shivered at Tuomu’s shout, as if suddenly realizing something, he looked back towards where the fireworks had been set off.

Cheng Garden?

The Commandery Princess!

Feng Bisheng’s eyes widened with shock and fear; could it be that the Commandery Princess is in trouble?

Thinking thus, Feng Bisheng immediately shouted, ”Garrison Commander, Garrison Commander, quickly send people to reinforce the city gates, let no one escape! If something happens to the Commandery Princess, not only will Feng’s hat be at risk, but you all will lose your heads!”

Hearing this, a man burst through the crowd, clasped his fist at Feng Bisheng, and said, ”Yes, I will attend to it immediately!”

With that, he rushed off hurriedly.

A group of people then headed straight for the city gate.

At this time at the city gate, a group of soldiers was dozing off against the gate, when suddenly they heard a swish and a bam as a firework exploded.

The Centurion in charge frowned, ”Who on earth is setting off fireworks at this hour?”

A soldier replied, ”Seems to be from the direction of Cheng Garden.”

Hearing this, the Centurion said, ”Oh, it’s probably the Commandery Princess who got playful and is setting off fireworks at this late hour. Truly, the fates of people are different; the nobles play with fireworks at night while we toil here at the gate.”

Hearing this, a soldier approached and said, ”Sir, I heard the young girls at Changchun Courtyard have completed their training. Why don’t you go and break them in? After all, you are the one who sent them in.”

”Nonsense, what do you mean I sent them in? I pitied them for not having enough to eat and acted out of great kindness to let them into Changchun Courtyard for a good meal. They should be grateful.”

”Yes, yes.”

The soldier laughed compliantly, thinking that if it weren’t for the Centurion partnering with the local guild to lend money at high interest, driving people to ruin, and finally catching them to repay the debt by selling their daughters off to the brothel, this wouldn’t happen.

If we talk about heartlessness, no one surpasses you.

Thinking thus, the Centurion said, ”But what you say isn’t bad—those girls are ready, it’s time for this lord to break them in. You come along, and I’ll let you enjoy after I’m done.”

”Thank you, Sir, thank you, Sir.”

The lackey soldier grinned brightly.

This means he’d get to enjoy for free, and those girls in the courtyard were fresh and young!

His paltry pay, docked so often, was never enough to indulge there.

Step, step, step...

While they conversed, in another building, Xiao Hu from Huangzhou Prefecture was using a telescope to survey the street toward Cheng Garden, when suddenly through his lens, he saw three galloping horses approaching swiftly.
