Chapter 63: Behind the scenes
The shopkeeper took out a pile of silver from his arms, saw that the faces of the two people were not very good, and he didn't dare to stay longer, so he put them on the table directly, and then left quickly.
As soon as the door was closed, the whole room was like an ice cellar, and the center that released the cold air was sitting in the room without saying a word, and his face was full of unhappiness.
Nighthawk thought for a long time and didn't come up with a word to break the embarrassing atmosphere at the moment, and finally could only ask weakly: "Lord Wang?" Why don't we go back first. ”
"Not going back."
Mo Huaining sat up straight, and his words were said with an irrefutable tone.
"Lord Wang, it's useless for us to be here, the people are already gone."
Nighthawk patiently began to reason, "Why don't we go back and think about what to do about this matter, after all, it's Princess Qi, not an ordinary person, and you're sorry for the people first, so ~~"
"What did this king do?" Mo Huaining gave him a puzzled look, with obvious dissatisfaction, and his whole face was written "Don't put any messy things on this king's head."
Nighthawk choked, and suddenly remembered a serious problem, after the prince was drunk, it seemed that ~~ would indeed not remember some things.
So~~
"It's all gone, why is there such a disgusting smell in the air, Nighthawk, are you stealing wolf meat?"
“……”
"Miss, you go slowly, the slaves and maids can't keep up!" Qing Ying struggled to swing her two little short legs, but she could only barely keep up with the people in front. Seeing that the other party was walking faster and faster, and was about to leave the city gate, Qing Ying hurriedly spoke, "Miss, where do you want to go?" ”
"I want to roar and find me an open place."
Ding Weilan's movements did not stop, his speech speed was faster, and in the blink of an eye, his foreground changed, and he had come to a wilderness.
"Miss~~"
"Cover your ears!"
"O'O!"
Qing Ying nodded, hurriedly covered her ears, and the next moment she didn't know what the young lady did with her back to her, but a large group of mountain birds flew in the forest a few miles away, and there was a faint vibration under her feet, Qing Ying felt a little pain in her chest.
"Miss, are you alright?" Qing Ying covered her ears and asked loudly.
"Alright." Ding Weilan turned her head again, and she had regained her composure, but her face was still a little red.
"Let's go, let's go back."
"Miss, what did that guy just do? Are you so angry? ”
"No~~ It's nothing, it's just a drunkard who is crazy." Ding Weilan's footsteps paused, she didn't want to recall what happened just now, the drunkard got up and glanced at her, and didn't know why he suddenly walked over at her, walked over!
This is the most shameful thing in her life, and she never wants to mention it again, and what's even more embarrassing is that she can't seem to mess with this person, so she can only suffer this dumb loss? Ding Weilan felt angry when he thought about it, and his walking speed was even faster.
"Miss, slow down, little ~~ Miss! There seems to be someone over there~~"
Qing Ying pointed in one direction.
"Huh?"
Ding Weilan looked in the direction that Qing Ying was pointing, and saw several men in coarse cloth clothes slowly walking from the direction of the city gate, looking behind them as they walked, and laughing from time to time.
"Hurry up, why are you still afraid of people seeing?"
"After all, now I am also a person with status, and it is normal to look down on our brothers, hahaha!"
"If you can't look at it, as long as you have money to spend, who cares so much?"
"Alright, don't talk about it." A female voice with a little coldness came, and Ding Weilan was stunned.
Jiang Mengying?
Several people appeared in the field of vision one after another, Ding Weilan saw it clearly, the one who walked at the end was indeed Jiang Mengying, she came alone, and even Lianxiang didn't bring it with her, no, not necessarily without it.
"Qingying." Ding Weilan approached Qing Ying's ear and said a few words to her, Qing Ying nodded, carefully glanced at a few people over there, and saw that they didn't notice the two of them, so she carefully avoided the eyes of a few people, and slowly moved towards the direction of the city gate.
Ding Weilan stayed to continue observing, only to see Jiang Mengying look around, and then took out a few pieces of paper from his arms.
"Three hundred taels of pairs, this is a silver ticket, you take it and give it to the woman, and redeem the person."
A few people were not polite, and took the silver tickets and counted them.
"It's only three hundred taels? Not enough, right? ”
As soon as these words came out, the rest of the people also echoed them.
"That is, how can it be three hundred taels?"
"I thought that Princess Jiang was favored in the palace, and she must be generous, but I didn't expect to be so slammed."
"If this is the real princess, where can this be?"
"Enough!" Seeing that several people were becoming more and more sarcastic as they spoke, Jiang Mengying's face also turned cold, "I have also read the letter sent by that woman, and it is written in black and white that it is three hundred taels, do you think I am blind, or do you think I am illiterate?" ”
"It's true that the letter says three hundred taels, but do you think that our brother has suffered a crime in the palace in vain, and we can end up with you like this?"
"That's right, it's all what you told us at the beginning that you went to the palace to take advantage of, and what happened? Not to mention a brother who threw it in vain, we still had to bleed out three hundred taels of silver, and we didn't get anything in vain, this is not the character of our brothers. ”
"I thought it was." Jiang Mengying sneered and looked at everyone with some sarcasm, "Don't you just want to ask for more money, just say it." "It's disgusting to talk about what kind of brothers. Jiang Mengying was extremely disgusted in her heart.
"Tell me, how much do you want."
Several people looked at each other when they heard this, and they all laughed, and one of them stretched out two fingers at Jiang Mengying, "At least this number." ”
"Two hundred taels?" Jiang Mengying glanced at the fingers in the air coldly, and really dared to say that the ransom was only three hundred taels.
"Two thousand taels!"
Another person next to him suddenly spoke, looking at Jiang Mengying dissatisfied, "I said, Princess Jiang, you don't really think that our brothers are so easy to deal with, right?" ”
"That is, there are so many of us, two hundred taels is not enough to stuff our teeth, at least two thousand taels."
"Zhao Dakuan's injuries in the palace are not light, I have asked someone to inquire, I have been in a coma for several days, and I can't make up for it when I come out? We let him go, and he was hurt, and we don't mean it? ”
"You guys, you have a point."
Jiang Mengying smiled.
"But~~" She turned her words around, looked at a few people, and finally fixed on the leader in front. "Do you really think that Zhao Dakuan entered the palace and didn't accomplish anything?"
"What~~What do you mean" Everyone present was stunned.
Jiang Mengying laughed twice and said, "Princess Qi is a big lady who doesn't go out of the door, even if she marries into the palace, she has never changed, she has always lived in a simple house, and does not argue with others, but now when she encounters this incident, she is abnormal, she is seriously injured by herself, and she beat people half to death, so that the whole palace knows, don't you think it's strange?" ”
"So, isn't it a dog jumping off the wall in a hurry?"
"The dog jumped over the wall in a hurry to see how the dog was, Ding Weilan did this kind of thing, it is definitely not normal."
"How is it not normal? Could it be ~~"
"She's trying to hide the fact that she's been tarnished." Jiang Mengying directly threw out a sentence, and the crowd exploded immediately.
"Really? So Zhao Dakuan's kid succeeded? ”
"Damn, I knew that I would go by myself, I heard that the King of Qi has never touched Princess Qi, and Princess Qi is still a big girl with yellow flowers."
"I still want to go."
"What a loss."
"What can you do if you are beaten like that, and you hug a beauty? It's better to look for it in the building. ”
"Can that be the same? This is Miss Daughter, can you sleep in the building? ”
"It's too, it's also ~~"
Everyone was talking about it, Jiang Mengying saw this scene, and scolded a fool in her heart, but she still had a smile on her face.
"It's not impossible for you to sleep now."
"What?"
One sentence diverted the attention of a group of people, and suddenly several pairs of eyes emitted a hungry wolf-like light, staring directly at Jiang Mengying.
"Do you have a way?"
"Of course there is a way, but ~~ Do you want two thousand taels of silver, or a beauty, think about it yourself."
"Can't you do it all?"
One asked.
Jiang Mengying laughed sarcastically twice, without concealing it at all.
"How can there be such a good thing in the world? I came up with an idea for you, you do it, if one day it is exposed, and then confess me, I don't lose more than I lose, I also take the risk, find some fun for your brothers, and you still let me lose money, do you really bear it? ”
Jiang Mengying said, winking at everyone.
"This~~ Of course I can't bear it!" A group of people suddenly burst into laughter, and one of them stepped forward directly and put his hand on Jiang Mengying's shoulder, "We are also old acquaintances, and my brothers can't bear to let you break the bank, but this transaction is really a loss, and my brothers can't swallow this breath." ”
Jiang Mengying held back the nausea in her heart and sighed, "Why shouldn't I?" ”
"A good person was beaten to the point that Ding Weilan was completely skinned, and I fell asleep for several days, and I was too~~" Jiang Mengying covered her chest, looking heartbroken, "Originally, I was at odds with her, but now she actually hurt my person, I can't just forget it." ”
"And what are you going to do?"
The person next to him had obviously been attracted to attention, but he didn't mention the matter of two thousand taels of silver.
"I think since you're all brothers, what's the good thing you can't have alone, right? Silver too, this beauty ~~naturally ~~"
"What should we do?"
As soon as these words came out, the rest of the people were also attracted, although they will definitely be able to find a beauty with silver, but things are scarce and expensive, even if they spend more money, they may not be able to find a young lady, this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, who will miss it. So a group of people came to Jiang Mengying one after another, and one by two they pricked up their ears, and it seemed that Jiang Mengying was already the leader.
Also pricking up his ears is Ding Weilan, who is not far away and hid himself by taking advantage of the terrain and weeds.
"I remember, the letter said that I want you to send the money to the palace, but how will I give people to you?"
"This, of course, was sent out directly."
"That's it, there are many people in the palace, and Ding Weilan is protected by the guards in the palace, who is strong and who is weak, it is obviously easy to see, you guarantee that you can bring people back?"
"Can she lie to us?"
"Don't forget, who beat Zhao Dakuan unconscious, there are at least twenty guards around her, and if you hit one, you will beat the second."
"Damn, could it be that we were fooled?"
Someone spat on the ground as if they had suddenly reacted.
"Dream Shadow, you say, we listen to you."
"That's it, listen to you."
"I can't spare that little girl."
"Then~~" Jiang Mengying approached the group of people and whispered something, the distance was too far Ding Weilan couldn't hear it clearly, but she guessed that this group of people couldn't come up with any good ideas, and after a while, the atmosphere that was a little tense just now dissipated suddenly, and a group of people all smiled at Jiang Mengying.
"Or you have a way."
