The Prime Minister's Darling novel Chapter 1498

Chapter 1498: 730 Group Pet (First Update)_3

Wang Xu turned his face and rebuked sharply, "Nonsense! How could I possibly assassinate Your Highness Changsun!"

Gu Jiao uttered an "oh" nonchalantly and asked, "Then what are you here for?"

Wang Xu glanced at the scallion noodles in her bowl, swallowed his saliva, and said, "I... I got word that someone was impersonating Your Highness Changsun, so I came to verify the truth."

Gu Jiao asked, "So, did you figure it out?"

Wang Xu awkwardly replied, "No, I hadn’t finished matching the secret code before I was knocked out by your people."

Gu Jiao asked curiously, "What secret code? Let’s hear it?"

The three big men in the room all turned to look at Wang Xu in unison, including the composed Xiao Hen.

Wang Xu had been stationed at the Imperial Mausoleum since Shangguan Qing turned thirteen; for the first half of the year, he had no contact with Shangguan Qing. It was a coincidence one time when he was injured and returned to camp, encountering Shangguan Qing on the way, and Shangguan Qing had someone send a bottle of medicinal ointment at night.

He had thought well of the boy then, wanting to teach him martial arts.

But the boy just wouldn’t study properly and often led him astray instead.

For example, after two years, he hadn’t managed to teach Shangguan Qing a single move or stance, yet Shangguan Qing had managed to teach him quite a few odd secret codes.

Wang Xu looked intently at Xiao Hen and declared earnestly, "Heaven King covers Earth Tiger!"

Gu Jiao replied without hesitation, "You’re an idiot."

Wang Xu was astonished, staring at Gu Jiao in disbelief.

Gu Jiao slurped a mouthful of noodles and finished them with a huff, then asked, "Did I get it right?"

Wang Xu was taken aback, "You..."

This couldn’t be possible; it was clearly a secret code only he and the Imperial Changsun understood!

Gu Jiao bet a pack of spicy strips, "The National Master knows them all."

Gu Jiao pointed at Xiao Hen, "He taught me. Once the secret code is matched, he’s the Imperial Changsun."

Wang Xu frowned deeply, wondering why he felt so reluctant to believe it. You all look more suspicious than the next!
