Chapter 2029 - 478: Ruyang King: Chen 94 Still Wants to Take My Daughter? No Way_4
Hmm?
Hearing these words, everyone was taken aback—Lord Wuxiang!
At this time, even Chen Jie was stunned, and he couldn’t help but laugh, "Lord Wuxiang, truly impressive, coming to aid Tuotuo at this moment."
As he spoke, Chen Jie couldn’t help but shake his head. How could he not understand Lord Wuxiang’s little schemes: coming to aid Tuotuo at this time, knowing that the execution of the Little Ming King was just yesterday.
Lord Wuxiang deliberately came to the Great Capital a day late, clearly not wanting to expend the living forces of the White Deer Army in this meaningless battle.
Understanding this, Chen Jie’s smile deepened. It really felt as if the abacus beads of Lord Wuxiang were about to bounce right onto his face at this Ten-mile Pavilion.
Thinking of this, Chen Jie looked at Zhao Ya, only to see Zhao Ya with a peculiar expression, for indeed, Lord Wuxiang was hard to evaluate.
After Sharlu seized power in Jiangnan, Lord Wuxiang was the first to surrender, and at that time, Sharlu immediately granted him absolute power, making him a trusted confidant, entrusting him with major responsibilities.
For instance, leading the White Deer Army north to aid Tuotuo was such a major affair entrusted to him.
From this perspective, Lord Wuxiang was practically a hardcore snitch, a presence that needed to be accounted for, but considering his aid to Tuotuo now, why did it seem like he was playing both sides?
At this moment, Chen Jie looked at Ah Da and said, "Did they discover you?"
Ah Da responded, "They did. I couldn’t hide it from my master."
Hearing this, Chen Jie looked at Ah Da, Ah Er, and Ah San, saying, "Hmm, since that’s the case, we won’t hide anymore. Listen to me, when they come after us, don’t mention the matters of the Capital, especially don’t mention that Lord Ruyang released this information."
"Huh, what do you mean?"
Hearing this, Ah Da looked at Chen Jie, and Ah Er and Ah San beside him also looked at Chen Jie in confusion. Chen Jie looked at the three and said, "Your master betrayed the Prince; logically, he’d be the first to face repercussions when we go back."
"Do you admit to this?"
Ah Da fell silent at these words, and then Ah San said, "My master must have his reasons, otherwise he wouldn’t betray the Prince."
Chen Jie looked at Ah San after hearing this and said, "You are right. Precisely because of this, we must give your master a chance. If he comes after us and doesn’t know the situation in the Great Capital, we can see his true intentions."
"If he has reasons, when the Prince arrives, we will plead with the Prince. If he truly betrayed the Prince, then we absolutely cannot indulge him!"
After hearing Chen Jie’s words, Ah Da, Ah Er, and Ah San all fell silent, looking at Chen Jie.
Chen Jie said, "So this time, what kind of person Lord Wuxiang turns out to be depends on his own choices."
At this moment, Chen Jie looked at Zhao Ya and said, "Yaya, I’ll hide for now. It’s hard for me to hear Lord Wuxiang’s true words here; you understand, right?"
Zhao Ya said, "I understand, you go ahead."
A master of the Melt God Realm like Chen Jie being here means that Lord Wuxiang definitely wouldn’t speak truthfully. Only if Chen Jie left would Lord Wuxiang speak honestly.
Thinking of this, Chen Jie silently and stealthily hid not far away, while Zhao Ya stayed there waiting.
After a long time, there came the rustling sounds from the forest, and soon after, someone walked out from the woods—it was Lord Wuxiang, and surprisingly, he came alone.
Seeing the Commandery Princess, he said, "Commandery Princess, why are you here!"
