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

Zhao Facai originally thought he would be held under house arrest until death, or that Basha Li would secretly execute him once the domestic situation improved slightly, but his death soldier beside him informed him that the King’s best brother, Mr. Fang from the East, had arrived.

Then came the banquet where Fang Guozhen got into a fight with the State Preceptor of Siam, resulting in chaos across the Imperial Palace. During this time, Zhao Facai’s death soldier used the opportunity to rescue him, and he escaped from Siam.

The reason Fang Susu saw so many people capturing pirates was actually an excuse. The main reason was that Basha Li, who had seized power, feared Zhao Facai, the heir to the throne, might escape, thus deploying a large army everywhere to capture them.

After hearing Fang Susu’s words, everyone present had a grave expression. Fang Guozhen being trapped overseas was not a good thing.

Fang Susu came here to seek help.

Chen Jie, after listening to Fang Susu, said, ”Hmm, don’t rush. By the way, did you bring the Siamese Prince you mentioned?”

Upon hearing this, Fang Susu replied, ”Yes, he was here earlier, but he was probably too hungry and was called to have a meal.”

Chen Jie said, ”Alright, don’t rush. Call him out, and let’s ask about the details before proceeding.”

Upon hearing this, Fang Susu immediately agreed, and Chen Jie had someone call the Siamese Prince over.

In the side hall of the City Lord Mansion’s backyard, a figure wearing a silk robe paired with loose trousers, with a turban on his head, slightly dark-skinned and looking somewhat like a woman, was awkwardly using chopsticks to eat the food in front of him.

Meanwhile, two darker-skinned strongmen beside him were standing and grabbing the food handed to them with their hands.

Seeing this scene, Ruirui, who was peeking, said in shock, ”They are eating braised fish with their hands, oh dear...”

As someone who loves food, Su Yunrui disliked these barbaric eaters, but found the one who looked like a lady interesting, despite not being adept with chopsticks, at least using them instead of hands.

Seeing Ruirui peeking, Chen Jie’s adoptive son, Wang Yong, said, ”Ruirui, let’s go quickly. It seems like it’s Father’s guest, and it’s too rude to keep watching like this.”

Su Yunrui responded, ”Lower your voice. Did you hear what they were saying, all babbling? What are they talking about?”

Wang Yong said, ”I don’t know.”

”Do you know where they are from?”

Wang Yong said, ”It seems like they said they are Siamese.”

”Siam? Where is Siam?”

Ruirui asked, and Wang Yong said, ”According to the geography teacher, it’s to the south from here. If you pass Baiyue Country, you can reach Siam.”

”Doesn’t sound too far, does it?”

Su Yunrui said, and Wan Tong said, ”Sounds close, but it’s actually thousands of miles away. If you go by land, you need to traverse the poison-filled Baiyue region and the southern Ten Thousand Mountains, which is impossible without time.”

”But by sea, it’s faster.”

Su Yunrui said, ”Indeed very far.”

Su Yunrui thought and said, ”Are you sure they are Siamese?”

Wang Yong said, ”They said so, but I’m not sure. Hey, Ruirui, what are you doing?”

”Hey!”

Su Yunrui rushed out and shouted at the Siamese person using chopsticks eating the diced meat on the plate.

This immediately alerted the Siamese Prince’s two guards, who placed their hands on their sword handles.

However, the accompanying Divine Dragon Cult members said, ”Don’t, don’t act rashly. She is the local Lord City Lord’s sister. Don’t act rashly, don’t act rashly.”

”Hei Ligu, Gema Tai!”

At this moment, the Siamese Prince also spoke, looking at Su Yunrui, ”Were you talking to me?”

”Oh, you speak our Han language?”

The Siamese Prince said, ”Of course, we have always had commercial exchanges with the Han people, and Han language is a language required in our court.”

Su Yunrui said, ”Haha, that’s great. No need to hear your chattering language. By the way, they say you’re Siamese, is that true?”

”That’s right, I’m the Crown Prince of Siam, named Zhao Facai, and you?”

”Zhao Facai? Hahaha, what an interesting name. I’m Su Yunrui, the sister-in-law.”

”Brother-in-law?”

Zhao Facai frowned slightly, while Wang Yong came over saying, ”Ruirui, why are you telling him these things?”

Su Yunrui replied, ”I found him interesting, just said a couple of words.”

”We should go back and study.”

Ruirui said, ”Studying all day is incredibly boring. I want to chat with this Zhao Facai!”

Wang Yong said, ”He doesn’t seem like a good person. Who names a good person Zhao Facai anyway?”

Ruirui said, ”Why are you like this? Naming in Siam is like that.”

At this point, Ruirui walked a few steps beside Zhao Facai and said, ”Zhao Facai, why did you come to our Huangzhou Prefecture?”

Zhao Facai answered, ”My country was usurped by my uncle, and I hope someone can help me.”

”So you came to my brother-in-law, huh? Smart choice. There’s nothing unsolvable for my brother-in-law.”

Listening to Ruirui, Zhao Facai said, ”Yes, I also heard from the Divine Dragon Sect people that City Lord Chen is a powerful and capable person.”

Ruirui said, ”Yeah, that’s right, my brother-in-law is indeed amazing. By the way, is your country like ours?”

Zhao Facai shook his head, ”We don’t have such prosperity and merchants like here, and our houses are much shorter.”

”Commerce isn’t as developed as it is here, but your ships are small, and we have large sea ships which are very tall. Standing beneath them feels like looking at the roof of your buildings here.”
