Your Majesty, the princess is fleeing famine with her child!

Chapter 369 Give you a gift

Because of the arrival of Xiao Jingyi and Yun Fuling, the chaotic Shuozhou City began to move towards a stable trend.

At this time, the capital city, which was thousands of miles away from Shuozhou, still seemed to be prosperous with singing and dancing.

Although the smallpox in Shuozhou caused a brief period of unrest and panic among the people.

However, Jishidiang stepped in to stabilize the price of medicine in the capital, and with the addition of some pills for selling to prevent epidemics, it did not cause much impact.

Mingyue Tower is a famous brothel in the capital, and is also the most popular den of illicit sex among the children of the powerful and wealthy.

At night, the Mingyue Tower was brightly lit, with the sound of stringed instruments and laughter ringing in the ears.

At this time, the third prince, with most of his face covered by the hood of his cloak, stepped into a private room in Mingyue Tower.

In the private room, a tall figure stood by the window with his back to the Third Prince.

The Third Prince frowned as he looked at the figure and asked, "Did Your Excellency invite me to come here?"

After the third prince returned home today, he received a letter.

The letter told him to meet at Mingyue Tower at 10 p.m. tonight, as he had something important to tell him.

Although the third prince was suspicious, he thought about it and decided to make the trip.

Seeing that there was indeed someone in the room where the meeting was agreed upon in the letter, the Third Prince became more suspicious and curious.

"Who are you, sir? What is the purpose of inviting me here?"

As the Third Prince asked, the figure who had his back to the Third Prince slowly turned around.

After seeing the man's face clearly, the Third Prince's eyes widened in surprise and he was speechless for a moment.

"Mr. Wen...Mr. Wen!"

The Third Prince had made an appointment to come, and the person waiting in the private room was none other than Mr. Wen, the national teacher of the Moon Clan.

The surprise on the third prince's face quickly disappeared, replaced by suspicion and anger.

He drew the sword from the guard next to him, pointed it at Mr. Wen, and asked, "Who are you? What is your purpose in asking me to come here?"

Faced with the Third Prince drawing his sword, Mr. Wen showed no panic at all. Instead, he smiled calmly.

"Your Highness, the Third Prince, no matter who I am, I have absolutely no ill will towards you."

"Otherwise, I would have had plenty of opportunities to attack you, Your Highness, when we were in the palace."

A hint of hesitation flashed across the third prince's face.

He thought about it and found that what Mr. Wen said made sense.

Moreover, since Mr. Wen joined his team, he has not done anything to hurt him or damage his interests.

Instead, he gave him advice and strategies, which helped him win several rounds in the fights with the eldest prince and others.

The third prince thought for a moment, and saw that Mr. Wen came alone and there were no other companions in the room.

And judging from Mr. Wen's appearance, he really had no ill will towards him, so the Third Prince put away his sword.

"Sir, you said in your letter that you had something important to tell me. What is it?"

Mr. Wen looked at the guards behind the Third Prince and said nothing.

The third prince immediately waved his hand, and all the guards retreated to guard outside the door, leaving only one person standing behind the third prince, not leaving his side.

Mr. Wen knew that the guard who stayed behind was the best martial artist around the Third Prince.

He is almost inseparable from the Third Prince, always guarding his safety.

The Third Prince also trusted this guard very much and did not shy away from him on many things.

The Third Prince dismissed the other guards at this time, leaving only this one person to guard him. This showed that he was on guard and put his own safety first. It also meant that he didn't mind letting this guard know about his conversation with Mr. Wen.

Mr. Wen saw that the Third Prince was wary of him and did not completely trust him.

But he didn't care.

If at this point the Third Prince still trusts him as much as before, without any grudge in his heart, it only means that this man is extremely stupid.

Mr. Wen pointed to a chair nearby and said, "Your Highness, please take a seat."

The third prince walked over and sat down.

Mr. Wen also sat down opposite him.

The third prince frowned almost imperceptibly.

Mr. Wen's attitude in front of him today was not as respectful and humble as in the past. Instead, he seemed to be on an equal footing with him and could have a conversation with him on an equal footing.

Before the Third Prince had time to think about it, he heard Mr. Wen say, "I asked Your Highness to come here today because I have a gift for Your Highness."

"This item can help Your Highness achieve his long-cherished wish and ascend to the world!"

The Third Prince's breath tightened when he heard this: "Are you telling the truth?"

Then he calmed down again, thinking to himself, what could be so powerful that it could help him become the master of the world?

Then he thought, if there really was such a powerful thing, why would Mr. Wen give it to him?

Thinking about how this person suddenly appeared and became his aide, every step seemed to have a purpose.

Who exactly is this Mr. Wen?

What is his purpose in helping me all the time?

And what about today's meeting? What exactly does he want to do?

The Third Prince's eyes fell on Mr. Wen and he looked him up and down.

Mr. Wen seemed to see the doubts in the third prince's heart.

He faced the Third Prince's distrustful gaze, looked him straight in the face and said, "Every word I say comes from my heart, and there is absolutely no falsehood."

"But this gift is not given for free. I want to make a deal with Your Highness."

Upon hearing this, the Third Prince thought to himself that there is indeed no free lunch in the world.

"What kind of deal do you want to make with me?"

Mr. Wen slowly said, "I think Your Highness already knows that I am a member of the Moon Clan."

The Third Prince jumped up from his chair and asked, "You are actually a remnant of the Moon Clan?"

Although the Third Prince had doubts in his heart, he never fully believed it.

He was more inclined to believe that this was a slanderous statement deliberately fabricated by Xiao Jingyi in order to defeat him.

In addition, Mr. Wen had disappeared without a trace, and the Third Prince could not find any evidence to confirm it.

But the Third Prince could never have imagined that Mr. Wen, the real person today, would actually speak out and blow himself up.

After a brief shock, the Third Prince's emotions were replaced by confusion and bewilderment.

He looked at Mr. Wen, "Father has ordered a search for the Moon Clan members."

"You have revealed your identity in front of me today. Aren't you afraid that I will order people to arrest you so that I can take credit for you in front of my father?"

Mr. Wen smiled, met the Third Prince's gaze, and said firmly, "Your Highness, you will not do this."

The Third Prince raised his eyebrows, "How do you know that I won't do that?"

Mr. Wen said calmly, "Your Highness, if you capture me, even if you send me to your father, what benefit will Your Highness get?"

"At most, your father would give you a few words of praise, and at most, some gold and silver or something like that."

"How can these be of any benefit to your cause, Your Highness?"

Having said this, Mr. Wen paused, took a sip of tea calmly, and then continued:

"I heard that there was an outbreak of smallpox in Shuozhou. Prince Yi and Princess Yi have already led people to Shuozhou to treat the epidemic."
