The Return of the Demon

Chapter 424: Each with Their Own Agenda

Ning Chen pinched Princess Ninth's little face and said, "Thank you Princess for the reward!"

Princess Ninth lowered her head shyly.

The fifth prince looked at the two intimate people with a flash of deep jealousy in his eyes.

He stuffed the last piece of pastry into his mouth, then stood up and walked over, holding the ninth princess's hand and saying coquettishly, "Huai'an, we've finished the pastry!"

Ning Chen's face suddenly darkened.

Even if they are biological siblings, this action is too intimate.

Heirs of the royal family should pay more attention to etiquette.

Ning Chen couldn't help but think that the fifth prince would often switch to a new group of young women, and then just silence them when they got tired of playing with them.

It shows that this guy is extremely lustful.

Would he treat his biological sister... Ning Chen was shocked by his thoughts and was also disgusted.

Ning Chen reached out and grabbed the fifth prince's wrist, exerting force with his five fingers.

"The fifth prince should eat less snacks. It's not good for your health and can easily cause tooth decay."

The fifth prince was in pain and was forced to let go of his hand. His mouth slumped, his eyes turned red, and he cried, "You, did you pinch me?"

Ning Chen squeezed it hard and then let go, pretending to be embarrassed, "Fifth Prince Haihan, I am thinking about your health."

The fifth prince's face was full of pain, and Ning Chen almost broke his wrist with this move.

He looked aggrieved, tears welling up in his eyes.

The fifth prince pointed at Ning Chen and complained to Huai'an, "Huai'an, he is a bad person. My wrist hurts."

Ning Chen narrowed his eyes slightly, this acting was really disgusting.

He was about to explain to Ninth Princess when he heard Ninth Princess say: "Fifth brother, you are a man, don't be so squeamish... Also, Ning Chen is a good person. What he said is right. Eating too many sweets is bad for your teeth." !”

The fifth prince lowered his head, a sharp light flashed in his eyes, and then he let out a dull sigh.

Ning Chen smiled and said: "Fifth prince, do you want to leave the palace together?"

The fifth prince raised his head, his eyes were pure and his face was honest, "No, I want to play with Huai'an."

Playing with your sister? Ning Chen complained in his heart.

"Fifth Prince, I found a delicious snack shop... I will take you to buy snacks."

The fifth prince said naively: "You just said that you wouldn't let me eat too many sweets because it would be bad for my teeth."

"There are snacks that are not sweet." Ning Chen picked up the box of gold and said with a smile, "Let's go!"

The Ninth Princess smiled and said: "Fifth brother, you and Ning Chen can go play... I have to visit my father in a while and I don't have time to accompany you!"

The fifth prince said gloomily!

The two left Luohuang Palace.

Ning Chen walked in front with the box in his arms, and the fifth prince followed behind.

He narrowed his eyes and stared at Ning Chen, his eyes flickering.

Ning Chen suddenly turned around, a flash of panic flashed on the fifth prince's face, and he hurriedly lowered his head.

"Fifth Prince, watch your feet, don't go the wrong way!"

The fifth prince said with a naive smile on his face, "No, if you go ahead, I will keep an eye on you."

Ning Chen narrowed his eyes, smiled, turned around and continued walking forward.

I was thinking in my mind, should I alert the enemy? Let the fifth prince know that he has seen through his trick of pretending to be stupid?

The fifth prince was also guessing, had Ning Chen discovered something? Do you want to test it out?

Both of them have their own hidden agendas.

When they arrived at the palace gate, the fifth prince couldn't hold himself back and wanted to test Ning Chen. Did he find something?

But before he could say anything, he saw a fast horse galloping towards him.

It's Geng Jing!

Ning Chen's eyes flashed and he immediately had an idea in his mind.

He stepped forward quickly, "Master Geng, are you here to see me?"

Geng Jing reined in his horse and was about to say no... but found Ning Chen winking at him.

He didn't understand what Ning Chen meant, but he chose to shut up, got off his horse, came to Ning Chen's side, and lowered his voice, "What's wrong?"

"The people from the Seventh Office haven't moved, right?"

Geng Jing shook his head, "It's very involved. We are secretly collecting evidence and haven't done anything yet."

Ning Chen smiled and said, "That's good...we'll deal with them together this time."

Geng Jing's face was full of doubts.

Ning Chen didn't look back, and he knew the fifth prince was coming when he heard the footsteps.

He deliberately said loudly: "Great! Then hurry up and enter the palace to face the saint. I will go back and prepare first."

Geng Jing had a question mark on his forehead, he didn't understand what Ning Chen meant at all... He originally wanted to enter the palace to face the saint.

Ning Chen urged: "Master Geng, time is tight and the task is heavy. You should go and report to His Majesty... I will wait for you at the Supervision Department."

Geng Jing was wondering, what kind of monster is Ning Chen doing?

But he knew that there must be a reason for Ning Chen's strange behavior, so he nodded and said: "Okay! I will go to the palace to meet the saint first, and you will wait for me in the Supervision Department."

Ning Chen nodded, "Go quickly!"

Geng Jing entered the palace in confusion.

Ning Chen turned around, looked at the fifth prince, leaned over and said: "Fifth prince, I'm sorry! I can't take you to buy snacks today... I will buy them and deliver them to your house another day."

The fifth prince looked disappointed, "But I want to eat snacks."

"I can't do it today. I have something urgent. Let's wait for another day!"

The fifth prince became angry and pouted, "I want to have some snacks. If you don't take me there, I will follow you... take me to buy them when you are done."

Ning Chen smiled bitterly, "Fifth Prince, please forgive me, but you will be in danger if you follow me."

"I'm not afraid!"

"You're not afraid of me. If something happens to you, how can I explain to His Majesty? To tell you the truth, two of my colleagues are missing. It's hard to find them now. I have to rescue them... Human lives are at stake. Five Prince, forgive me!”

After Ning Chen finished speaking, he ran over and untied the horse, got on the horse, and rode away.

The fifth prince narrowed his eyes, staring at Ning Chen's back, his eyes flickering, and whispered: "Impossible, you can't find their hiding place."

But when he saw Geng Jing's horse, his brows frowned again.

He knew the ability of the Supervisory Department.

Did the Supervisory Department really find out where the two people were hiding?

The fifth prince felt more and more guilty, and walked quickly to his carriage.

Ning Chen rode to the first place of the Supervisory Department.

"Old Gao, gather everyone, there is a mission!"

Gao Ziping did it immediately.

"Chen Chong, you go to the other places and ask them to transfer a few silver clothes to help."

Chen Chong nodded, "Okay, I'll go now!"

Ning Chen said: "Let's act separately, I'll go to the sixth and seventh places, and you go to the other places."

"Okay!"

Ning Chen came to the sixth place.

When Meng Jianbai heard that Ning Chen needed people, he sent a few silver clothes to Ning Chen without hesitation.

Ning Chen took them to the seventh place.

The gold clothes in the seventh place were called Han Ji.

A tall, thin, middle-aged man with triangular eyes and a thin face, who looked like a monkey.

Ning Chen had met him several times before, but they were not familiar with each other and had not interacted much.

"Greetings, Lord Marquis!"

Han Ji smiled flatteringly and bowed.

Ning Chen waved his hand and said, "No need to be polite!"

"Lord Marquis, you have come to my Seventh Office. Do you have any instructions?"

Ning Chen said in a deep voice, "There is a big operation in the evening. There are not enough people in the First Office. Geng Ziyi agreed to transfer people from other offices."

"Han Jinyi, send me at least five silver-clad people."

Han Ji asked curiously, "What operation?"

Ning Chen's face sank, "Don't ask if you shouldn't ask."

Han Ji smiled flatteringly and said, "I am too nosy. Lord Marquis, please forgive me. I will transfer people to you right away."

Then, Han Ji pointed out five silver-clad people to Ning Chen.

Ning Chen didn't say anything nonsense and turned around and left with them.

Han Ji stared at Ning Chen's back with flickering eyes, then turned around, walked quickly into the room and closed the door.
