Although Du Baili's words sounded selfish, it had to be said that he was really thinking about Liu Shengsheng.
It's just that this kind of thing has become a choice.
If you choose Liu Shengsheng, you will definitely betray those innocent people.
But if they are asked to choose some ordinary people who have nothing to do with them, and then give up their relatives, they really can't do it.
So be selfish. Du Baili no longer cares about what others think of him.
Seeing that Liu Shengsheng did not respond to him, he couldn't help but ask, "Shengsheng, did you hear what I said?"
"I must have heard you with such a loud voice, but now is not the time to talk about this, right?"
Yichen followed behind and said something lightly.
Du Baili said solemnly: "If we don't say it now, when can we wait? I feel that the other party is unkind, and I'm afraid..."
"Second brother, I heard it."
Liu Shengsheng finally spoke and said calmly: "I will put my own safety first."
After receiving Liu Shengsheng's assurance, Du Baili shut his mouth.
Not long after, they left the palace.
She originally thought that after leaving the palace, Liu Shengsheng would act alone, but she never thought that Du Baili and others would always be by her side.
Only then did Nan Muze explain, "I'm just letting you enter the teahouse alone, and all of us will stay outside the teahouse."
Liu Shengsheng nodded meaningfully, "The other party is quite scheming."
"Indeed."
On the surface, everyone can gather outside the teahouse and wait for Liu Shengsheng to come out, and if there is any movement, they can immediately rush in to save people, as if the situation is very favorable to Liu Shengsheng.
But in fact, with this arrangement, the other party could better observe them outside the teahouse.
If Nan Muze and others were not outside, it was obvious that they were inside, then the people inside would definitely be very wary.
Naturally, Nan Muze also understood this. After pondering for a moment, he said, "How about you get off the carriage later?"
Liu Shengsheng shook her head, "No, the other party is very scheming. There is not much difference between you staying on the carriage and following me secretly."
Nan Muze frowned.
That's indeed what happened.
As long as he didn't appear in the crowd, the kidnappers would have guessed that he was following Liu Shengsheng.
But so what?
He couldn't let Liu Shengsheng take risks alone.
He originally agreed to let her come out because he wanted to protect her secretly. If he couldn't protect her, then he would never allow Liu Shengsheng to act alone.
Perhaps seeing his worry, Liu Shengsheng smiled at him and said, "You are the same outside the door, so I will go in and take a look. If anything happens, I will call you."
Nan Muze frowned and did not speak for a long time.
Soon they came to the street and saw the teahouse they talked about.
Because they showed up with their true identities, they also brought a large group of soldiers with them this time.
As the carriage stopped outside the teahouse, the nearby streets soon became much quieter. .net
The people who were still gathered around were quickly dispersed to both sides of the road by the soldiers. At this moment, the people in the whole street were staring at the two carriages in front of them.
"No way? Your Highness the Princess really came out?"
"There are so many innocent children, all of them are very pitiful, and they are making such a big fuss, even a princess can't just sit back and watch..."
"That is to say, I heard that every family whose child was kidnapped received a letter, and the letter clearly stated that the person they wanted was Her Royal Highness, but they just couldn't deal with the princess, so they attacked ordinary people. "
"My dear princess, how can you be threatened by some common people? I think the kidnapper is out of his mind and wants to lure the princess out of the palace just by kidnapping anyone."
"Don't mention it yet, Her Highness the Princess really came out.
. "
"..."
Seeing Liu Shengsheng getting off the carriage in front, the people on the street were talking a lot.
"It seems that Her Highness the Princess is quite kind. With such a noble status, she is actually willing to risk her own life for the sake of ordinary people's children."
"You can pull her down. She is being forced into helplessness. If she doesn't come out, she will be despised by thousands of people in the future!"
"That is, if it weren't for her, those children wouldn't have been kidnapped. After all, the kidnappers only want to deal with the princess. Otherwise, why would they let her enter the teahouse alone with such a big fanfare?"
"The matter is so big. A poor child died not long ago. What if she doesn't come out and the other kidnapped children are also killed?"
"So, she came out because she had no choice! She will probably rush in with someone else later..."
"The kidnappers said that the princess must go in alone before releasing the children. It would be better for them to lead the people in just to stimulate the kidnappers to kill them all?"
"In the final analysis, I still don't care about ordinary people's children..."
"But she is a princess, why would she trade her own life for the lives of those children?"
"That's what I say, but as a princess, shouldn't you serve the country and the people? We are all citizens of Li Kingdom. As a princess, even if the kidnappers are not targeting her, she should do something for the people, right? "
"..."
All kinds of discussions resounded through the streets, and people gathered in twos and threes, whispering to each other without any scruples.
Obviously, everyone understands the current situation.
The kidnapping incident has already made those big shots anxious, so how can they control what ordinary people say?
So the common people were not afraid at all, and some even talked very loudly.
But the voice of an aunt was obviously louder.
"It's good that she is a princess, but how have she ever enjoyed the treatment of a princess? If she is willing to save people, it is a matter of love, but if she is not willing to save people, it is a duty. She doesn't owe anyone, so why should she care about this mess?"
I saw the lady with her hands on her hips and her voice loud and clear.
"In my opinion, Her Royal Highness the Princess should not care about such things! As a princess, she should be the center of attention and be loved by all, but who doesn't know that Her Highness the Princess only returned home this year? Although she is a princess, she can In fact, she doesn’t enjoy much of the treatment she should enjoy! If that’s the case, why should she bear what she shouldn’t?”
The aunt's voice quickly attracted the attention of many people, but she was not afraid at all and said loudly:
"The premise of paying for the common people is that we common people have to pay something for Her Royal Highness the Princess, but have we paid anything? The princess does not owe us anything! It is also said that Princess Li Guo must be responsible for the common people of Li Guo. I have to enjoy the noble treatment of being a princess from the country first!"
"You guys are so courageous. Aren't you just relying on the kindness of the princess to not argue with you? You all don't show any conscience. It's a shame that you can still be here to watch the fun!"
