Chapter 1810: Chapter 1748: Bluffing Their Way Through
Wufu quickly retreated from the Bamboo Garden, she was fast, but those behind weren’t slow either, closely following.
"Wufu."
Ah Jiu found her and was startled upon seeing her.
"Quick, withdraw."
Ah Jiu had noticed the pursuing soldiers behind and said, "Head towards the banquet, I’ll divert them." With that, she moved loudly towards the Northwest.
Wufu didn’t dwell on the details; Ah Jiu had Qinggong and martial arts skills, escaping shouldn’t be difficult. At present, she lightened her movements and quickly retraced her steps.
And sure enough, the troops behind went towards the direction of the loud commotion.
Wufu quickly returned to the cleansing room, then from there back to the banquet, grabbed a wine pot and chugged down half a bottle, splashed some wine on herself, secretly exerted her energy to make her cheeks flush red, then with the wine pot in hand, headed towards Crown Prince Li.
As soon as she reached Crown Prince Li’s side, Song Cheng appeared in view, heading towards her.
"Brother Li, today has been truly enjoyable, come, little brother offers a toast, wishing you a golden spear that never falls, daily joy akin to a deity." Wufu chuckled and directly offered the wine pot to Crown Prince Li.
"Haha, good, thank you for the blessing." Crown Prince Li was already somewhat drunk, and hearing this made him very happy.
Wufu’s wrist was grabbed, she turned her head, face flushed, her eyes dazed and misty, looking at the person coming, and let out a sound: "Big Brother Qu, where did you go? Not drinking with us! Hic."
She hiccuped, and the strong smell of alcohol made Song Cheng frown directly, evidently this guy had drunk too much, could he have been mistaken?
But he clearly saw in the Bamboo Garden a corner of clothing that seemed green, yet Wufu looked like she had drunk too much, could she appear in that place?
"Brother Li, you should punish him, just the two of us drinking, yet he slipped away!" Wufu said again to Crown Prince Li.
"Yes, yes, he should be punished."
Song Cheng said, "You’ve been drinking here all along? How much have you drunk?"
Wufu chuckled foolishly, hiccuped again, and said, "Not much, not much, keep going." As soon as she finished speaking, she suddenly vomited, spraying directly onto Song Cheng’s shoes.
Song Cheng looked at the filth on his shoes with a dark face, his body stiff.
Crown Prince Li laughed heartily, pointing at Wufu and saying, "That’s terrible."
"My lord." Ah Jiu arrived just in time, supporting Wufu’s tottering body, her brows furrowed: "You’ve had too much to drink!"
Wufu leaned against his chest, insisting she wasn’t drunk.
Ah Jiu saw Song Cheng’s darkened face and his shoes, feeling inwardly satisfied, said expressionlessly, "Sorry," then carried Wufu on his back, saying to Crown Prince Li, "I must first take my master back, please have Crown Prince Li assign someone to lead the way."
Crown Prince Li casually pointed to a servant.
Song Cheng looked at the pair, a mix of expressions on his face, watched them leave, then glanced down at his foot. The pungent sour smell made him feel like throwing up too.
"My lord, you should go change your clothes first."
Song Cheng flicked his sleeve and went to the cleansing room.
Ah Jiu carried the ’drunk’ Wufu and followed the servant away. At the front gate, there were guards checking people coming in and out, seeing them approach, stepping forward to inquire.
Evidently, that commotion had aroused Marquis Xuanwu, and he wanted someone found.
Fortunately, with the servant leading the way, they explained, and the guard stepped forward for a look, saw Wufu slumped on Ah Jiu with no sense, and a bit of a sour smell on her, then disdainfully pinched his nose, waved them away.
Ah Jiu carried Wufu out of Marquis Xuanwu’s Mansion, Chi Wu drove the carriage up, they boarded and quickly departed.
This hurdle was considered temporarily deceived and overcome.
