Chapter 523: 261 Truth (Second Update)_4

“Miss, Miss!”

The candied-fruit hawker chased after her.

Gu Jiao turned around to look at him: “What’s the matter?”

“I overcharged you earlier, here!” The vendor awkwardly handed her five copper plates, “I sincerely apologize!”

“It’s fine.” Gu Jiao said.

During this brief distraction, the princess had disappeared.

Gu Jiao was gazing at the unending flow of people, narrowing her eyes as if she were deep in thought.

In a room of a teahouse, the princess saw Xuanping Marquis, dressed in a loose, dark purple robe.

Xuanping Marquis sat upright on an official’s chair, with Chang Jing, who held a treasure sword, standing beside him.

“You two wait outside.” The princess ordered the two court ladies who were with her.

The two complied and obediently waited outside the door.

The princess entered the room and greeted Marquis Xuanping with a junior’s respect: “Uncle.”

Marquis Xuanping responded: “Princess, you are too kind.”

The princess said: “Uncle, don’t be so formal. In this room, it’s not the princess who is present but Linlang. Linlang will always regard you as her senior, so it’s only proper for me to show respect.”

Marquis Xuanping took a deep breath: “You may sit.”

“Yes.” The princess sat down opposite Marquis Xuanping.

Chang Jing wasn’t there to pour tea, he was a killer, his hands were meant for killing and playing with a slingshot.

He stood there with great arrogance.

The princess’s eyelashes quivered slightly, reaching out to pick up the teapot. Before she could, Marquis Xuanping intervened and poured a cup of tea for her.

The princess acknowledged graciously: “Thank you, uncle.”

Marquis Xuanping put down the teapot: “Do you need anything today?”

The princess lowered her eyes and let out a bitter smile, then looked up at him: “Uncle, is he really not Ahen?”

Chang Jing walked in front of him, opening the door.

Just as he stepped over the threshold, the princess called out to him: “Ahen was afraid of cats, do you know that Uncle? If you want to know he is Ahen or not…”

Marquis Xuanping interrupted her: “Ahen is dead, there is no Ahen in this world.”

…

After Marquis Xuanping left, the princess stayed in the teahouse for half of the two hours before leaving.

Just after she left the room, the door of the adjacent room also opened.

Gu Jiao emerged from the room, her eyes dangerous. _{freewebnσvel.cøm}

The carriage was parked in the alley next to the tea house.

The princess was incognito, didn’t bring many guards, only a highly skilled royal guard as the coachman.

The carriage was just ahead.

She was about to step into the carriage when a small figure fell from the roof and landed behind her, throwing a sack over her head!
