Chapter 224 Is it interesting to catch me?

 Therefore, the people in the Forbidden Army and the patrol camp all laughed when they heard that Gu Xi was Mr. Wutong.

"Haha, this person who hates the head of Fu'an County actually claims that she is Mr. Wutong, it's too outrageous!"

"Yes, yes, this is the funniest rumor I have ever heard in my whole life."

"I guess the people who spread the rumors didn't expect that so many Mr. Wutong would suddenly appear."

"I just arrested three more, and they were so furious that they almost started fighting in order to prove that they were the real Mr. Wutong."

"Oh, this is the same situation here! These people really want their reputations rather than their lives!"

"So, are you still arresting the Lord of Fu'an County..." someone asked weakly.

"Catch me! No! There are so many Mr. Wutongs, but we still need the head of Fu'an County."

…………

When Qi Yue heard the situation reported by his subordinates, he could no longer maintain his grace, and his face was distorted with anger!

How could this Gu Xi be so lucky!

Every time, he can turn danger into good fortune, and he can always resolve the crisis in a way that he could not imagine, which is efficient and slaps him in the face.

"Master, Mr. Wutong's reputation is too high now. There are too many people vying to be Mr. Wutong. Even if Gu Xi is real, and even if she admits it, not many people will believe it."

Qi Yue's men also asked speechlessly,

"Master, what should we do now?"

Qi Yue pursed his lips, and finally waved his hands reluctantly, "Forget it, let's ignore her for now. The first priority is to contact Beiyan and inform them that Prince Ning may rebel.

If King Ning takes the throne, he will definitely work hard to govern. If he is given a few more years to recuperate, we, Beiyan, will be the ones who perish by then!

Preventing King Ning from proclaiming himself emperor is a matter of life and death. If Beiyan starts a war immediately, King Ning must be forced to return to the border and cannot be allowed to stay in the capital."

"Yes." The subordinates took the order and immediately went out to deliver the news.

When Gu Xi learned that her identity was leaked, she was eating potato chips and reading a storybook leisurely.

She was too busy some time ago, but now she finally has some free time, and she can enjoy her salty life again.

"Oh, miss, now it has been spread outside that you are Mr. Wutong!" Qiuzhi ran in from the outside in a panic.

"Oh?" Gu Xi raised his eyebrows and asked lazily, "When did this happen? Why hasn't anyone come to arrest me yet?"

Qiuzhi's panicked expression froze slightly, and when he calmed down, he was also puzzled.

"Huh? That's right. It sounds like everyone wants to know what's being said outside. Why is no one arresting the young lady?"

"Go and inquire about the situation." Gu Xi said calmly and continued to eat potato chips.

Qiuzhi,......

The young lady’s heart is not ordinary.

-

Half an hour later, Qiuzhi ran back again, and said to Gu Xi, somewhat dumbfounded,

"Miss, there are people pretending to be Mr. Wutong everywhere outside. The officers and soldiers have arrested many of them. They don't believe you are the real one at all, so no one comes to arrest you."

Gu Xi was surprised when he heard this, and then smiled, "This trick is quite effective."

She guessed that this was a method used by Prince Ning to protect her.

By creating countless fake ones to cover up her real one.

However, if the emperor goes out of his way and orders the killing of Mr. Wutong’s nine clans, most people who are interested in fame and fortune will probably back down.

And if the emperor recognized that it was her and Gu Xi narrowed her eyes slightly, she would not be afraid.

She has the confidence to make the emperor dare not kill her.

Therefore, Gu Xi thought about it for a moment, then put the matter aside and concentrated on eating potato chips and reading the storybook.

People like the Sixth Prince and Gu Weisong who knew the truth were worried to death.

They ran over to take a look, and when they saw Gu Xi's leisurely and contented look, they breathed a sigh of relief. At the same time, they felt that they could not bear their anger.

Gu Weisong said that the eldest sister is still courageous, and her appearance remains unchanged despite the collapse of Mount Tai, which is worth learning from.

The sixth prince didn't have the brains to think so much. He took the potato chips from Gu Xi's hand and tasted them, and his eyes suddenly lit up.

Click, click, click.

The sixth prince ate several slices in a row, and when he saw Gu Xi's accusing eyes, he felt aggrieved first.

"Good sister, you are hiding here to eat such delicious food, and you don't even want to give me any!

I have worked very hard these past two days, leading people to throw away rotten leaves and rotten eggs. From morning to night, I have the smell of a wet market all over my body."

"This is made of potatoes. I gave it to you before." Gu Xi defended herself first, and then listened to his complaint and stopped arguing with him.

"Tomorrow you won't have to take people to throw them away, and this matter will be over."

"Then what do you say about the fact that you are Mr. Wutong?" the sixth prince asked again.

Gu Weisong also looked at Gu Xi, his eyes showing worry.

"Let's see what the emperor thinks." Gu Xi covered his face with his notebook, squinted his eyes and said lazily,

"If he believes that I am and wants to arrest me, just stay out and don't let me be arrested. It's such a simple thing."

The Sixth Prince and Gu Weisong,...

It does not sound like a difficult task.

It's just... but the emperor sent hundreds of forbidden troops to arrest people, and they really couldn't stop them.

"Prince Ning can be rehabilitated, but it's unreasonable that the emperor won't let me be a writer."

Gu Xi continued to speak slowly,

Besides, I'm too sick to get out of bed, what's the point of arresting me?

Moreover, am I not quite famous now and am called Mr. Number One? Why don’t any common people or students come outside my house to shout for me and protect me from being arrested and interrogated?”

You are already the number one gentleman. If you don’t get this kind of treatment, then your reputation is too great.

When Gu Weisong and the Sixth Prince heard this, their eyes suddenly lit up.

"That's right, that's right. When the time comes that the Emperor really comes to arrest someone, then I will call on the students and the people to stay out and see if they still arrest him."

Gu Weisong pumped his fist excitedly and wanted to get ready immediately.

"Good sister, don't worry, I will definitely stand at the front and no one will come into the house to catch you. You can just lie down and pretend to be sick."

The sixth prince slapped his chest against the ground, straightened his waist, and looked confident that everything would be left to him.

Gu Xi smiled lazily, "Thank you."

It’s good to have a few more good brothers, so I’ll put them to good use.

Zhongyihou Mansion.

After Zhongyi Hou heard the news that Gu Xi was Mr. Wutong, he ran to Gu Rong's yard angrily and asked her if it was spread secretly.

"Of course it's not me!" Gu Rong was also very angry after being wronged. "I'm not that stupid. Prince Ning is at the height of his power, so I went to provoke Gu Xi, and I got all messed up for nothing."

"That's not you, who could it be?" Hou Zhongyi was also puzzled.

"Maybe it's someone else. If you don't want others to know, you have to do it yourself." Gu Rong gloated and immediately asked,
