The Prime Minister's Darling novel Chapter 822

Chapter 822: 381 Real Married Couple (Second Update)

Gu Jiao learned from Prince Ning that the top three experts in the underground martial arts arena were qualified to visit Yan Country to compete, and they could even take someone with them.

Gu Jiao knew the relationship between Zhan Country and Yan Country. Yan Country was a superior nation, and even the emperor of Zhan Country couldn’t visit freely without the consent of Yan Country. Yet, a mere underground martial arts arena had the qualification to send experts to Yan Country.

The name was for competition, but in reality, it was probably a chance to curry favor.

This kind of arena should be present in all six countries. Yan Country’s methods were too straightforward and brute.

Prince Ning said, "The first and second have not appeared for many years, and there’s no opportunity to challenge them. However, the third-ranked expert has only come to the arena in recent years."

It was quite clear what Prince Ning meant, Gu Jiao just needed to defeat the third-ranked expert.

"I believe in the strength of Young Hero Xiong."

Gu Jiao didn’t believe she was the only one he had said this to. He was probably casting a wide net and focusing on nurturing talents.

Besides, Gu Jiao also extracted another piece of information from their conversation–Prince Ning wanted to visit Yan Country.

"How does Young Hero Xiong feel about it?" Prince Ning asked.

Gu Jiao glanced at the incense on the desk, stood up with a swoosh, and signaled with her eyes—time was up.

The nearly choked Prince Ning: "...!!"

After Gu Jiao left, the Guard cautiously looked around the entrance and returned to Prince Ning’s side to report: "Your Highness, someone was watching us nearby just now."

"Have they left?" Prince Ning asked.

"They have," the Guard nodded.

Prince Ning’s gaze softened slightly: "Did you see who it was?"

The Guard shook his head: "I didn’t see his face clearly, but his figure seemed familiar, like someone from the Crown Prince’s entourage."

Prince Ning picked up his teacup: "So, the Crown Prince also came?"
