My father, on horseback, is the empire's dragon commander; off horseback, he is the current prime minister. People call me the Young Prime Minister.
My father and I both feared being slau...
Zhao Cheng stood up and said, "Come in, what is it? Speak quickly!"
When Fu's mother saw Zhao Cheng's face and saw that his abdomen was completely flat, she realized that she had indeed misunderstood and quickly closed the door.
"Young Prime Minister, things are getting out of hand downstairs! Lord Du says you're not following the rules and insists you take Lanlan down with you!"
"I can go down, but I want to take Lanlan back."
"Huh?" Madam Fu realized what was happening and asked in confusion, "You want to redeem Lanlan from her servitude?"
"Um."
"this……"
"What's wrong? Don't say you can't." Zhao Cheng said with a stern face, "You've seen my style. I don't even give face to the Marquis. I insist on taking someone with me. Do you think you can stop me?"
"No, no!" Madam Fu, being a pragmatic person, said, "It's just that I bought Lanlan at a high price and have carefully nurtured her for a long time, so regarding the money..."
"Ten thousand taels."
Madam Fu's eyes widened in surprise, never expecting that Zhao Cheng's offer would be much higher than she had anticipated!
Yan Lan was also stunned, never expecting that she was worth so much.
She knew the price her brother charged for selling himself.
It's only thirty taels...
Yan Lan instinctively grabbed Zhao Cheng's arm, suddenly feeling that Zhao Cheng was the safest person in the world.
"I know this price is much higher than you think, so don't bother thinking about it anymore. I don't have that much patience."
"This price isn't for you; Lanlan is worth it."
Upon hearing this, Mama Fu dared not say anything more, only marveling that Zhao Cheng was truly her lucky charm, with surprises coming one after another tonight!
"Alright! Young Prime Minister, you can take Lanlan away tonight. I'll go get her indenture right now!"
As she spoke, Mama Fu immediately turned around.
But she didn't move forward any further, as if she had frozen in place.
Just as Zhao Cheng was about to call her, he saw her suddenly fall backward to the ground.
A black nail was stuck in his neck.
"Ah!" Yan Lan was so frightened that she quickly threw herself into Zhao Cheng's arms.
