Poisonous Goddess: I'm just lazing around in the mortal realm.

Haojing noticed that Thirteen's body stiffened slightly, and his distinctly rugged face was filled with obvious mockery as he spoke again.

"What? You know Mr. Thirteen?"

He had already heard Shen Mu talk about Yi Sisi's visit to Thirteen.

He never expected that Thirteen's small stature would actually win the favor of Miss Yi Sisi. You see, he once spent a fortune at Zuixianlou, but still couldn't see the face of the top courtesan, Yi Sisi.

This skinny boy actually managed to get Yi Sisi to come and see him!

Thirteen narrowed his eyes slightly, seemingly suppressing the surprise in them, and said softly.

I've heard of him, but I don't know him well or have ever met him.

She secretly wondered how many Xu officials there were in the Nanyang court? Could it be the one that Yi Sisi asked her for poison to kill?

Hao Jing seemed to be able to see through Thirteen. He walked up to Thirteen, bent down, and said...

"Judging from your reaction, sir, we should know each other. How about I take you for a stroll around the Imperial Guards?"

Although Hao Jing said this, he only dared to talk the talk, because if Shen Mu found out, he would personally lock Thirteen in the Jinyiwei dungeon.

I'm afraid he won't be able to bear seeing the moon tonight.

Thirteen looked up and met Haojing's gaze, then subconsciously pouted.

She certainly understood the principle that a wise man doesn't suffer a loss in front of him.

She then put on a rather pretty smile and said...

"I'll definitely accompany Lord Hao to see it next time I have the chance. But I'm not feeling well right now, so I'll have to go now."

After saying that, Thirteen tried to stand up shakily, but his legs were still too weak, and he fell directly towards Haojing.

"Be careful--"

Haojing instinctively dodged, causing Thirteen to slam heavily to the ground.

"You..." Thirteen felt a sharp pain in his chest; the bluestone slab was indeed incredibly hard.

She managed to sit up, supporting herself with her hands. The fall made her feel like her bones were about to break.

Haojing deliberately patted the barely visible dust off his clothes and glanced at Thirteen.

"What? Mr. Thirteen, you don't actually think I'm going to catch you, do you?"

He couldn't help but roll his eyes. He only liked women, not men. He might have been happy if Thirteen were a different gender, but she wasn't!

Thirteen rubbed his chest and glared at Haojing.

"You old man, you're so petty. Your heart is as small as a needle."

"I'm not your subordinate, why should I care about you?" Hao Jing said sarcastically, even kicking Thirteen with his leg.

"Get up quickly, or the emperor will regret it and not only lock you up again, but he'll also order you to be torn apart by five horses."

"I'm going to die, I'll haunt your dreams every night and scare you to death!" Thirteen was no less fierce than Haojing. As she tried to get up, she heard some noises outside the dungeon.

The two looked outside and saw a simply dressed maid pushing a wooden wheelchair in.

"You are..." Thirteen looked at the maid and realized he had never seen her before.

On the contrary, it was Haojing who recognized him.

"Is that Miss A-Meng, who's with the eldest daughter of the Pei family?" He smiled at A-Meng, his feigned confidence making Thirteen's lips twitch.

"It was our second young lady who sent me to deliver this wheelchair to you, sir." A-Meng pushed the wheelchair to the prison door and slowly bowed to the two men.

"Did Pei Sui Sui ask you to send this?" Thirteen asked in surprise, as she hadn't heard any news from the Pei family for the past ten days.

Since it was Pei Suisui who sent it, she must have already woken up.

A-Meng nodded. "Yes, the Second Miss woke up a long time ago, but the Eldest Miss instructed that the Second Miss not to go out. She even rarely gets out of bed."

The task of delivering the wheelchair was originally assigned to Aru, but seeing that Aru's injury had not fully healed, she personally made the trip for her.

She saw Thirteen sitting on the ground looking rather disheveled, and quickly went over to help her up. Hao Jing, on the other hand, stood there dumbfounded, watching as A Meng helped Thirteen into a wheelchair, without making any move.

With some difficulty, A-Meng quickly bowed and said

"Now that the goods have been delivered, I'll be leaving now." With that, she hurriedly departed.

Hao Jing frowned, his gaze fixed on Thirteen's wheelchair, and remained lost in thought for a long time.

"What? Thinking about some girl?" Thirteen couldn't help but interrupt Hao Jing's thoughts.

Hao Jing then came to his senses; he had a feeling that the wheelchair...

He must have seen him somewhere before.

"What I think is none of your business!" He increasingly felt that this Thirteen was a heartless and ungrateful person!

It's all my fault for being too naive.

When Duan Yuyan stormed into the Shen residence and caused trouble, Thirteen took the blame for Duan Yuyan's anger. He then thought more highly of Thirteen, believing that Thirteen was a very clever and resourceful person.

But after spending time together, he discovered...

I really misjudged him back then.

"I'm afraid you're thinking about the courtesan from Zuixianlou. I heard from Shen Mu that you've always liked Yi Sisi?"

Thirteen deliberately poked at his sore spot, and seeing Hao Jing's defeated expression, he guessed that Yi Sisi hadn't seen him.

"What does that have to do with you?" Hao Jing looked at the somewhat complicated environment of the Dali Temple dungeon and thought that he could only calm down and think things through after he got rid of this plague as soon as possible.

They reluctantly pushed Thirteen's wheelchair out.

"Of course it has something to do with me. You don't know, but Zhou Jinghuai invited me to Zuixianlou for drinks and entertainment, and that's when I met this girl, Yi Sisi."

Thirteen's deliberately vulgar behavior only made Haojing grit his teeth in hatred.

"Really? Then Mr. Thirteen, you've really had a hard time!"

"It's not hard work, it's not hard work. After all, the spring night is too short, right?" Thirteen turned around and deliberately winked at Haojing.

She probably enjoyed teasing this person named Haojing the most. In contrast, Xie Qiao, whom she met at Mingyue Palace, was like a cold, expressionless person, truly inheriting Shen Mu's temperament.

I really couldn't get along with her.

It's still more fun arguing and bickering with Haojing.

"you……"

Haojing was so angry that he wanted to let go and push Thirteen down the stairs, but he held back.

After all, Thirteen is being watched by Shen Mu's spies. If he acts on his own, Shen Mu will definitely punish him when he finds out.

Thinking of this, he pushed Thirteen away with all his might.

"However, I have something to ask you, Lord Hao."

"You never have anything good to say." Haojing couldn't help but roll his eyes.

"Oh dear, with our relationship, Lord Shen said that I can ask you for help if I need anything."

She wasn't lying to Haojing about this; it was Shen Mu who nodded in agreement, which is why she dared to order Haojing to do the work for her.

"Then please tell me, what do you want to ask me?" Hao Jing finally realized that Shen Mu had personally agreed to ask him to do this work.

But no one asked him, the person in question, whether he was willing to work for Thirteen White!

Thirteen straightened his expression, seemingly no longer displaying the frivolousness he had just displayed, and said...

"I heard from the jailer that Prime Minister Pei is going to retire and return to his hometown?"
