Chapter 308
I Transmigrated As A Prison Guard And Suppressed The Princess
While they were talking, they had already stopped in front of a large courtyard.
He took out the key and opened the courtyard door, and the group entered the courtyard.
The boss introduced again,âLord Xiao, this courtyard has six entrances and six exits, and it occupies a large area. Thereâs a back garden, an artificial lake, a forest path, and so on. Look at the scenery here, itâs really beautiful.â Itâs only a river away from your house in Jingwen Lane. If you buy this place and spend a little money, you can build a wooden path on the river to connect the two houses. â
Xiao ran was moved by this suggestion, but he did not agree immediately. He looked around the courtyard from inside to outside.
It was well taken care of, and the furniture inside was all precious.
He looked at the owner of the shop.âWhy does the owner want to sell it?â
âIâve been promoted. His Majesty has rewarded me with a house at the Azure Dragon square, so he wants to sell the house here,â
âHow much is it?â Xiao ran asked.
âEight million taels.â
Hiss!
Xiao Zhou gasped and looked at him in shock.âYou didnât say an extra zero, did you?â
The boss smiled bitterly.âLord Zhou, please donât make fun of me. If I dare to say anything wrong, Iâm afraid that Iâll be pressed to the ground and beaten by Lord Xiao. Of the many squares in the capital, these five were the most expensive. The people who lived here were all in the top circle and didnât lack money. Believe it or not, if there werenât any restrictions, all the houses here would have been sold out. â
âBut you canât just give a fixed price!â Little Zhou was unconvinced.
Looking at Xiao ranâs teasing eyes, the boss knew that he had to bleed.
âThe price of eight million taels of silver canât be any less. Iâm only earning some hard-earned money, but I can pay to pave the wooden bridge and the small path. I guarantee that youâll be satisfied.â
At the end of his sentence, his gaze fell on Xiao ran.
âAlright!â Xiao ran agreed.
âWhat about the other set?â Shen Yiming asked.
âWhat a coincidence, itâs less than two hundred steps away.â The boss said with a smile.
âIt seems like weâre going to be neighbors for sure,â Shen Yiming joked.
Xiao ran smiled and said nothing.
He took a look at the other house as well. It was not as big as his house, with three entries and three exits. The environment was not as good as his house, but the price was not cheap either. It cost 4.5 million taels.
After a long discussion, the price was still the same.
The boss agreed to renovate the man-made lake in the yard.
Back at the Xinyi ivory shop.
Xiao ran and Shen Yiming handed him the right to buy the house and paid him. Shen Yiming borrowed 1.5 million taels from him. After waiting for about an hour, the owner handed them the house deed and everything else.
At this point.
These two houses would be theirs.
After leaving Xinyi teeth, Xiao Zhou was jealous.âI have to work hard to earn money and strive to be your neighbor.â
âThen youâll have to work hard.â Xiao ran teased.
âTonight at chunfang court, you must treat us.â
âAlright,â he said. Xiao ran and Shen Yiming had no objections.
They looked at each other and laughed with evil intentions.
After they separated.
Xiao ran walked towards the Imperial prison.
Imperial Clan Court.
Eunuch Zhu appeared outside Princess Weiweiâs Palace, followed by a group of people.
Looking at the tightly shut Palace, eunuch Zhu said,ââIs this the place?â
âYes.â The commander nodded heavily.
âOpen the door.â
With a wave of his hand, the commander hurriedly ordered his men to open the palace door.
âYou guys wait here.â Eunuch Zhu ordered.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
He stepped into the palace.
The hall was cold and deathly silent. There was no sign of life at all. The deeper they went, the colder it became.
They arrived at the bedroom.
A figure was sitting by the window in a daze, looking at the sky outside. He was holding a wooden comb in his hand.
âAI!â Eunuch Zhu sighed in his heart.
Itâs fine if you court death yourself, but youâve also implicated them.
He deliberately increased his pace and made a loud noise. Even so, Princess Weiwei still didnât hear him. Her eyes were empty, like a walking corpse, sitting there in a daze.
âYour Highness,â eunuch Zhu said when she arrived.
The voice was very soft, but it contained a kind of magic that brought Princess Weiwei out of her âdead silenceâ state.
He raised his head.
Princess Wei Weiâs expression did not change at all when she saw eunuch Zhu. She retracted her gaze and continued to look outside.
âHis Majesty has sent this old servant to bring you back.â Eunuch Zhu said.
Princess Vivian did not seem to hear him.
Eunuch Zhu shook his head.âIâm sorry!â
With a flick of his finger, he knocked her out.
âGuards,â he ordered outside.
Two Palace maids quickly walked in. Eunuch Zhu ordered,âhelp His Highness leave this place.â
The two Palace maids hurriedly came forward and carefully helped her up from the chair, afraid of hurting her.
The group left the Imperial Clan Court.
The carriage was waiting outside, and she was helped into it. Eunuch Zhu also sat in the carriage, and the convoy moved forward towards the palace.
It wasnât far from here.
In a restaurant, on the second floor near the window.
The two of them saw everything that was happening.
One of them said,âPrincess Wei Wei has been taken away by that old dog Zhu. What should we do now?â
The other person also knew the seriousness of the matter. Old dog Zhu was very strong and could protect Emperor Sheng Wen at close proximity. His strength was naturally unspeakable.
Even if they had more people, it wouldnât be enough.
Moreover ...
The Imperial Clan Court was right next to them. If the experts inside rushed over again, it wouldnât be enough even if they died ten times.
âWe owe the 18th Prince a debt of gratitude. No matter what price we have to pay, we have to save Princess Weiwei and get her out of the capital,â he said.
He paused for a moment.
