Shen Ningning knew that the people sent by Chang Liu Kingdom would not be honest and wait for her to find the so-called ten princesses.

No, after only half a month passed, Xiumu couldn't bear it anymore.

He took it upon himself to come up with a way: any girl who pricked her finger and left a drop of blood would get one tael of silver, and she had to be seventeen or eighteen years old.

By the time Shen Ningning found out, Xiumu had already booked an inn in the capital and started to act secretly.

On this day, Xiumu sent someone to invite Shen Ningning to the inn.

Most of the private rooms on the second floor were occupied by him.

"Your Highness, Princess, our stunt has started. There has always been a long queue of people outside the inn recently. You can take out the jade ring."

Shen Ningning somewhat disagreed with their approach.

However, because of the artificial profit, many people only have a few pieces of silver in their eyes. They feel that they can exchange money with just a drop of blood, and it is too late to be happy.

Shen Ningning didn't stop him and handed the jade ring out, while she sat beside it and watched leisurely.

In the huge private room, the girl's figure was hidden behind the screen, leaning on the soft couch, eating the fresh fruit prepared by Xiumu for her.

The girl took two bites and tasted it.

She looked at Takuno who looked like a guard but was actually staring at her.

"Did you buy these fruits on the street?"

"Yes, what's wrong?" Tuoye frowned, what trick does this princess want to play?

"Is the shop called Langtun Tianshui?"

"Yes." Tuo Ye just found her annoying. Why did she always ask such meaningless questions?

Suddenly, he realized that in Cangyun Kingdom, the Chinese character "wolf" means "wolf"!

So that’s Princess Funing’s shop?

As expected, Shen Ningning smiled sweetly: "Thank you for the hospitality. Next time I go, buy me some bayberries. You have to go in the morning, otherwise it will be wilted in the afternoon."

Tuoye felt depressed for a while!

She was really proud of herself.

These fresh fruits are very expensive. After buying so many, I spent almost eighty taels.

Tuoye stared at her with cold eyes, "Eat, no one can eat more than you."

At this moment, Shen Ningning saw him looking at her: "You want to eat too? Come and reward you."

She grabbed two bayberries with her jade fingers and handed them over.

Tuoye refused coldly: "I won't accept my humble position."

"Eat it, you usually follow Xiumu, have you ever eaten such good food?"

Hearing this, Tuoye became even more angry.

Really underestimate him.

In the past, he was in the Changliu Kingdom and had a distinguished status, although he had never eaten fresh fruits.

But that's because Changliu is not rich in these things.

If there was something good, didn't his father give it to him right away?

When Shen Ningning saw that he was silent, she pretended not to notice that he didn't want to pay attention to her.

"Forget it if you don't want to eat it. People who have never eaten bayberry before don't understand how good it is."

One sentence stimulated Takuno's aggressive nature.

He took the bayberry, ate it into his mouth, and chewed it angrily, as if to vent his anger.

Shen Ningning shook her fan and smiled, her beautiful face filled with the innocence of a girl.

Tuoye read a bit of sarcasm from her smile.

He was about to say something to her so that she wouldn't go too far.

However, when he opened his mouth, the two bayberry cores were stuck in his throat.

The feeling of a foreign body was too strong. He covered his neck, his eyes changed, he grabbed the teapot and poured it into his mouth.

Shen Ningning was startled and said hurriedly: "It's boiling water."

"Ah——" Tuoye screamed in agony as he was burned, and his voice roared: "Why didn't you tell me earlier?"

Shen Ningning was innocent: "You didn't ask, you just picked it up and drank it. How can there be such a tough person? How come you got choked?"

Tuoye already felt a little difficult to breathe. It was really uncomfortable.

He was circling back and forth, and Shen Ningning handed over a red fruit: "Eat it and see if you can suppress the core."

Tuoye believed it to be true, took it, chewed it, and then swallowed it hard.

However……

He choked harder.

Shen Ningning covered her lips with a fan: "Ah! You rolled your eyes."

Tuoye felt extremely uncomfortable, and his mind was still wandering, thinking that this Princess Funing was really trying to trick him!

He fell to the ground, rolled back and forth, and knocked the screen down.

Scared, a bunch of girls outside who came to "donate blood and receive money" screamed in unison.

Xiumu's expression changed, and he stepped forward nervously to help the third prince up.

Shen Ningning covered her mouth and nose with a fan, while her black eyes kept watching Xiumu's movements.

He's just a bodyguard, but a veteran like Hideki is so nervous and concerned?

Tuoye lay on the ground panting heavily and kept muttering: "It's going down, it's going down..."

Unexpectedly, I actually swallowed the two kernels in my throat with such a fall.

He was sweating profusely, and Hideki also breathed a sigh of relief.

"What happened?" Hideki asked hurriedly.

Tuoye spent the rest of his life with no time to answer, let alone being stuck by the core, which was really embarrassing.

Shen Ningning said calmly: "I thought he was pitiful, so I handed him two bayberries. Who would have known that you, a guard, look so tall and strong, with a throat as thin as a needle, and two kernels of the fruit almost hit him?" His soul is stuck."

The girls present made sighing sounds.

Whispering to each other——

"With such a strong body and such a thin throat, doesn't it mean that you talk like a sissy?"

"It's far worse than my husband. When my husband opens his mouth, he sounds like a yak."

Everyone laughed.

Tuoye felt his face was dull and was helped by Hideki to stand up.

His cold, vengeful eyes swept across Shen Ningning's face.

She actually embarrassed him like this, wait and see, he won't make it easy for her.

The screen was held up by Hideki's attendants, and the long line of people "donating blood" outside never stopped.

Shen Ningning leaned against the window sill in boredom.

Tuoye seemed to be afraid of her. Even if he was guarding her and couldn't leave, he would definitely stand far away.

Shen Ningning snorted with her red lips: "You need to be afraid of being a thief with a guilty conscience."

Her voice was too soft, Tuoye didn't hear her, but he felt that what just happened was too weird.

He had just cursed Funing in his mind and thought of eating her to death.

Unexpectedly, the next second, he would be stuck?

Could it be that God really loves this girl so much that he can't even say a bad word about her in his heart?

At this moment, Xiumu's doubtful voice came from outside the screen: "Madam, this is the fourth girl you have brought. Do you have so many daughters?"

"Yes, yes," the woman said in a local accent, "There isn't much else at home, but there are many children. What's wrong, can't you get money?"

Xiumu frowned: "But your four daughters are all the same age and look different. It's unlikely. They are not your children."

The woman became aggressive, put her hands on her hips, pointed at Xiumu's head and scolded him.

"You old man, why are you in so much trouble? You don't care if they are my daughters. You want blood and I want silver. If you give them, it's over."

Xiumu stopped the guards around him from trying to capture the woman.

He still maintained a smiling expression: "But if you don't tell the truth, how do we know if they are really eighteen or nineteen years old, or are you bringing someone here to make up the numbers?"

The woman seemed to have been told that she had a guilty conscience, her domineering expression suddenly disappeared, and her eyes began to dodge.

Xiumu smiled sinisterly: "If you lied, you have to pay back the money."

"I'll give you back, why don't I take it away? Daughter, let's go." She dragged her so-called daughter and turned around and ran away as if she was dejected.

Xiumu looked at the people still in line and said loudly: "If anyone is in the same situation as her, there is no need to come forward. Otherwise, even if we take the money, we will find a way to recover it. We all live our lives accordingly. People, it would be bad if my guards did not know the importance of their actions."

As expected, he frightened away some guilty scammers.

Behind the screen, Shen Ningning waved her fan gently, and she looked at Tuo Ye aside.

Sure enough, I saw him frowning, listening intently to the news outside.

Shen Ningning rolled her dark eyes.

She said in a clear voice: "I thought Mr. Hideki was just showing off when he said he was looking for the tenth princess. I didn't expect that he was so serious about looking for the tenth princess, which is admirable."

Tuo Ye's doubts were completely ignited by her words.

Xiumu told him that the jade ring was fake, how could he find his sister?

If it's fake, why is Hideki so serious?

Something's wrong. Could it be that Hideki was lying to him?
