Rumor Has It That I’m Pregnant with His Highness’ Child: Chapter 355 token

   Chapter 355 Tokens

   After leaving the palace, the mission of Chen Kingdom took a carriage back to the guest house specially arranged for them by Honglu Temple.

  Han Chengxi sat down at the table and took out a small note from his sleeve.

   During the day, the second prince and the sixth prince were ordered to go out of the city to welcome the Chen Kingdom mission, but when the sixth prince Shen Rui was unprepared, he slipped a note into Han Chengxi's hand.

   There are only five words on the note——

  See you tonight tonight.

   It was almost time for him, Han Chengxi put the note above the candle and let the flame devour the note.

   Soon the note turned into a pile of ashes.

   There was a knock on the door, and the voice of the entourage broke in through the door.

   "Your Highness Ninth, there is a visitor."

  Han Chengxi thought it was quite on time.

He stood up, straightened his clothes, walked out of the bedroom, and saw two people standing outside, one of whom was his entourage, the other was wearing a black cloak, and most of his face was hidden under the wide hood, so he couldn't see clearly. appearance.

   But judging from his height, he should be an adult man.

  Han Chengxi called out tentatively, "Sixth Prince?"

   The man raised his head slightly, dropped his hood, and his face was completely exposed.

   It is the sixth prince Shen Rui,

   He smiled at Han Chengxi: "The ninth prince has good eyesight."

  Han Chengxi glanced at the entourage beside him.

   The entourage understands and retreats wisely.

  Han Chengxi and Shen Rui entered the room.

   The two sat down at the table, Shen Rui glanced at a small pile of ashes on the ground beside the table, and asked with a smile.

   "The Ninth Prince was burning something just now?"

  Han Chengxi picked up the teapot and replied while pouring tea, "Well, I just burned the note you gave me."

  Shen Rui understood: "It really should be burned. It's not good for people to see that thing."

  Han Chengxi handed over the teacup and asked straight to the point.

   "The sixth prince came late at night, is there something important?"

   Shen Rui took the teacup, but didn't drink it.

   His fingertips gently rubbed the wall of the cup and said slowly.

   "Nine princes rarely come to Yujing. Would you like to spend more time in Yujing? I can accompany you around Yujing City and show you the scenery of our wild geese."

  Han Chengxi said politely: "Thank you for the kindness of the sixth prince. I also really want to stay here for a long time, but my father is still waiting for me to return to my life. I can't let my father wait for a long time. I have to leave for Chen Kingdom in a few days."

  Shen Rui looked for several more reasons, but he couldn't get Han Chengxi to agree to stay longer. Han Chengxi looked careless, but in fact he was thick and thin, very slippery.

  There is no way, Shen Rui can only tell the real purpose.

   "To tell you the truth, I actually have a business that I want to cooperate with you."

  Han Chengxi saw that the other party was finally willing to get to the point, so he didn't go around in circles with the other party, and asked directly.

"what business?"

  Shen Rui approached him, lowered his voice and said something like this, and finally said.

   "I know that the ninth prince, who is both civil and military, is a strong contender for the throne of the Chen Kingdom. As long as you help me do this, I can help you when you compete for the throne in the future."

  Han Chengxi narrowed his eyes slightly.

   At this time, he has completely lost the roughness that he usually showed, and his whole person has become shrewd.

   "King Lang is not so easy to deal with."

  Shen Rui: "It's because it's hard to deal with him that I came to you, and only you have the ability to deal with him."

   He saw Han Chengxi's look of hesitation, and he continued to persuade him.

   "Don't forget that Du Tao was arrested because Prince Lang stepped in, and your Chen Kingdom's deployment in Liaodong County also fell short. Don't you want to take revenge?"

  Han Chengxi naturally wanted revenge.

   But he was not stupid, he knew that Shen Rui wanted to kill with a knife.

  Han Chengxi pondered for a moment and said.

   "You said that you could help me fight for the throne in the future. These are all fictions. I want something more real."

   Hearing what he said, Shen Rui knew that the other party was intending to cooperate more with him, so he hurriedly said, "What do you want? As long as I can get it, I will definitely get it for you."

  Han Chengxi: "What I want is very simple, that is Tang Guixi's life."

   Shen Rui was stunned.

   Of course he knew who Tang Guixi was, but he just didn't expect the other party to make such a request.

  Han Chengxi: "You want Prince Lang's life, I want Tang Guixi's life, one life for another, very fair."

   Shen Rui said hesitantly: "But Tang Guixi is far away in Liaodong County, so it's not convenient for me to attack her."

  Han Chengxi leaned back: "I don't care about that. Anyway, my request is to let Tang Guixi die. As long as you can do it, I will help you deal with Prince Lang."

  Shen Rui thought about what his mother-in-law told him, gritted his teeth and nodded his head.

   "Okay, I promise you!"

  Han Chengxi hooked his lips and smiled: "Happy cooperation."

  Shen Rui: "Tang Guixi is too far away, I can't kill her in a short time."

  Han Chengxi obviously thought of this for a long time, he said slowly.

   "It's okay, we can exchange tokens to represent our commitment to each other.

   After I have helped you to solve King Lang, you must return the token to me.

   The same is true for you, how? "

   Shen Rui hesitated.

   Once the two exchange tokens, it is equivalent to handing over the handle to each other.

   In case the token is exposed in the future, the cooperative relationship between them will also be known to outsiders.

   This is a big crime of collaborating with the enemy, even if Shen Rui is the prince, he can't bear it.

  Han Chengxi said when he saw that he was silent.

   "It doesn't matter if you don't want to, I'll treat you as if you haven't been here tonight."

   After speaking, Han Chengxi was ready to see off the guests.

  Shen Rui remembered what his mother-in-law had said to him. If Prince Lang finds out the truth of Concubine Yue's murder, his mother-in-law will surely die, and he won't be able to survive.

   Instead of sitting still, it’s better to take a gamble!

   Shen Rui took off the jade pendant hanging around his neck and put it on the table.

   "This is the peace pendant given to me by the Queen Mother when I was born.

   has my birthday engraved on it, and there is only one piece of the whole geese.

   I've had it with me all these years.

  Can it be used as my token? "

  Han Chengxi picked up the jade pendant and looked at it, with a smile on his face: "Of course you can."

   Then he took out a small and delicate metal token from his sleeve and placed it in front of Han Chengxi.

   "This is a token that represents my identity. It has my name engraved on it. As long as you take it out, you will be able to travel unimpeded in Chen Kingdom."

  Shen Rui took the token and looked at it carefully, but he saw that all the characters on it were written in Chenguo characters, and he didn't know it at all.

   He couldn't verify the authenticity of the token, and when he was hesitating, he heard Han Chengxi say.

   "If you think the token is unreliable, I can write a letter of commitment to you on the spot, in your geese's words."

  Shen Rui accepted the proposal.

  Han Chengxi immediately picked up a pen and wrote a letter of commitment.

   His geese characters are not very beautiful, but they are very neat, and at first glance they are the result of years of practice.

   In the end, he did not forget to stamp his own private seal on the letter of commitment.
