Chapter 1446: Stay for Tea
She knew that this must be Lin Yuelan"s way of humiliating her. She wanted to take revenge for s.n.a.t.c.hing her husband!
How despicable!
Lin Yuelan smiled and said," Haha, how could that be? Didn"t you hear it clearly just now? This princess and you are old friends after all. Even if you broke this princess" bowl and chopsticks, I still want to invite you to stay for some tea. You must know that the tea in this inn is not ordinary!"
Then, her eyes turned sharp, and she said to Cui Zhi," Why aren"t you going back to get the money?!"
Cuizhi was anxious and angry, but she was mostly helpless.
Of the two guards who had been sent to protect the princess, one had already been ordered by the princess to do something else, while the other was beaten up in this inn without any strength to fight back.
And this despicable princess of the Guguo actually wanted the princess to stay as a hostage!
How could she do that?
Therefore, she had to go back and report to the Second Prince.
When Xiao Jingyu heard the words "old friend", her pupils constricted again.
That was because she felt that Lin Yuelan was referring to her as an old friend. Once again, she suspected that Lin Yuelan had seen through her ident.i.ty.
But now, she was not so foolish as to ask Lin Yuelan for confirmation!
Just as Cui Zhi was about to leave, a cold voice came from the stairs on the second floor." There"s no need. I have already brought the money!"
Everyone looked over in unison. A young, cold, and handsome man walked over under the protection of his subordinates. Behind him were a few people carrying boxes.
Ha, isn"t this the Second Prince of the Black Clouds Kingdom?
When Xiao Jingyu heard Xiao Jingrui"s voice, she was shocked. Under the veil, her face was faintly pale, and her whole body was trembling. It was obvious that she was afraid.
She carefully looked up at Xiao Jingrui, but then she met his cold and ruthless eyes. She quickly lowered her head and clenched her fists, her palms full of cold sweat.
After she adjusted all her emotions, she respectfully called out to Xiao Jingrui," Second Brother!"
Xiao Jingrui didn"t pay attention to her. He just stared at Lin Yuelan and then clapped his hands.
Then, everyone saw the boxes on the ground open and emit a dazzling silver light. It was simply dazzling.
Hehe, everyone present was either rich or n.o.ble. To these people, this money was just a little money, so it was not worth being surprised at all.
Xiao Jingrui looked at Lin Yuelan and asked with a smile," Princess, there are 50,000 taels of silver here. As compensation, I"ll give you all of it. You can count it. How about that?"
Lin Yuelan immediately beckoned the innkeeper and ordered sternly, "Shopkeeper Zhang, bring some people to check. Remember, we only want 38888 taels. We are not greedy people. We will only take what is ours. No more, no less!"
Shopkeeper Zhang quickly replied," Yes, Boss!"
Soon, Shopkeeper Zhang led two subordinates to count the silver in the five chests.
His actions were swift and agile!
A moment later, Shopkeeper Zhang came over to report," Boss, the money has been counted!"
Lin Yuelan nodded and said," Mm, then get someone to carry the silver that has been counted to the inventory!"
"Yes, Miss!" Shopkeeper Zhang replied.
Then, he arranged for people to carry the four chests of silver to the inventory!
This made the mouths of everyone present twitch again!
How much did she love money?
