Chapter 101 The Man Behind the Scenes

Outside the wall.

Amber and Hongye were waiting there anxiously. When they saw her come out safely, Amber's tears rolled out like beans.

"Miss."

Amber was really scared.

In a scene like that, with so many people wanting to kill the young lady, even if she was extremely strong, it would be difficult for her to defeat thousands of people.

Chu Jiuning held her hand tightly, choking a little.

"Thank you very much."

How could the Buddha move?

It was the amber that penetrated into the Buddha's body, activated the mechanism, and controlled his actions.

When the golden statue was being built.

The master they invited was able to make mechanisms. Chu Jiuning tried to ask him if he could make a moving Buddha. The master became interested at once, so he spent a month drawing the blueprints and making samples, and then spent another three months to create the Buddha's mechanical golden body.

After it was created, the master became worried again. If the person’s strength was too small, he might not be able to control it. Fortunately, amber was there, so it drilled into the Buddha’s stomach.

The master was stunned, then extremely delighted, and taught all the mechanisms to Amber. Because it would take half a year to decorate the Buddha's body with gold powder, Amber would go in and activate the mechanism whenever he had nothing to do during that time.

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince had previously summoned Amber and asked her in detail about the matter of sculpting the golden statue, and then made arrangements.

Only with the prince protecting her from behind could she sneak into the inner hall successfully.

Your Highness is truly kind.

Arrange everything quietly behind the scenes.

Amber wiped her tears and shook her head. As long as the young lady was there, everything would be fine, even if it cost her life.

"Miss, if the sun comes out early tomorrow morning, it will be a great bargain for these people."

"The sun won't shine tomorrow."

Chu Jiuning said in a cold voice that even if there was sunshine tomorrow, she would cover the main hall with black cloth so that no sunlight could be seen inside.

These people.

If you don’t kneel until your legs break, you won’t remember anything.

Amber's eyes rolled, and she immediately became happy again and nodded.

"Miss, let's go down the mountain. I want to go back."

"Okay, let's go back."

Chu Jiuning handed an offering fruit to Amber, and the group turned around to leave.

There were heavy footsteps behind me.

Chu Jiuning turned around and saw that it was Prince An, and hurriedly stepped forward to salute.

"Thank you, Prince."

Prince An's eyes were smiling, bright and full of evil. He walked in front of Chu Jiuning, looked at her deeply, and did not hide the admiration in his eyes at all.

Just now.

The moment he saw her standing in the palm of Buddha's hand like a demon, Prince An was once again certain that he had fallen in love with Chu Jiuning.

"Chu Jiuning."

Prince An leaned closer to her, facing her. Seeing that Chu Jiuning did not avoid him and her bright eyes met his, the smile on his face was dazzling and charming, and he reached out and patted her head.

"Don't shoulder danger alone in the future. Women, make good use of men."

Chu Jiuning looked at Prince An, blinked her long eyelashes and asked him.

"I don't want to make good use of just one man, I want to make good use of many men, Prince An, do you mind?"

What?

The smile on Prince An's handsome face suddenly froze.

He thought of many possibilities.

I thought that Chu Jiuning didn’t like me, didn’t love me, and didn’t accept me.

But.

He never thought it would be like this.

This won't work.

No matter how much you use him, you can only use him. No one else can do that.

Seeing his handsome face gradually become sinister, Chu Jiuning saluted as anger surged up.

"If the prince needs any help in the capital, tell me and I will help you."

"I want a house."

Prince An gritted his teeth, and Chu Jiuning nodded.

"good."

"Something closer to the Chu Mansion."

"good."

After agreeing, Chu Jiuning left under Prince An's angry gaze. On the way, Chu Jiuning said to Amber.

"Just give him the set next to Eunuch Chen, and let Eunuch Chen keep an eye on him."

"good."

Amber nodded, thinking it was a good idea.

After returning to the Chang Mansion, everyone washed up and had a midnight snack. When they snuggled into the soft couch, they felt like they were alive again.

Nanny Hong lit the lamp and sat beside Chu Jiuning, staring at her carefully, her eyes red and her heart full of fear. Chu Jiuning drank some water and snuggled into her arms.

"Don't worry, I'll be fine."

Nanny Hong quickly wiped her tears and hugged her.

"In this life, young lady, you must live a long life. Master Kujue's Buddhist beads are a rare treasure. There is only one in this world. They will definitely bless you."

"kindness."

Chu Jiuning wrapped it around her wrist, and Nanny Hong said again.

"Your Highness the Crown Prince and Prince An have both helped Miss, so please remember to express your gratitude."

"I know, everything will be arranged. Let's go to bed quickly, otherwise it will be dawn soon and everyone will sleep in tomorrow and won't have to get up so early."

Chu Jiuning gave the order with a smile, and Nanny Hong nodded in agreement.

The lights were turned off one by one, and the mansion became quiet in an instant.

Outside the house.

Prince An's carriage was parked there quietly. He was sitting on the roof of the carriage, holding a long sword in his hand.

"Keep a close eye on them all. If they're men, kill them if they come in."

"yes."

Hearing his subordinates' response, Prince An got into the carriage, closed his eyes and fell asleep.

Until noon.

The Chang Mansion was just becoming lively. Mingtang went to the kitchen to get breakfast and came back with an invitation in his hand.

"Miss, Princess Yun's invitation has arrived. She said there will be a flower viewing party the day after tomorrow."

Chu Jiuning remembered this.

Take the post.

Open.

A golden leaf fell out from it.

Her image is carved on the leaves, lifelike.

“It’s a really nice carving.”

Chu Jiu frowned and smiled. He had heard that Princess Yun was good at carving on leaves, but he didn't expect her craftsmanship to be so good.

"Put it in a nice box."

After handing the gold leaf to Mingtang, Mingtang hurriedly turned around to rummage through the box.

Chu Jiuning leaned on the cushion.

"Princess Yun was the first to offer incense, and she is at the height of her fame. Her mother wants to use her to find a suitable daughter-in-law for her son."

Princess Yun had mentioned before that the Marquis's wife wanted to find a daughter-in-law for her son Yun Zhaoming, and the person she had her eyes on was none other than her good sister Qi Zhiyu.

"First, I'll make an appointment with Your Highness to meet at Guixian Tower, and then I'll go to the Qi Mansion."

Just saying.

Hongye came in.

She said that His Highness asked her to meet him at Guixian Tower. Amber and the others listened and chuckled. Hongye turned to look at Amber, and Amber told her that the young lady had asked His Highness to meet her just now. Hongye also laughed and said to her.

"His Highness asked me to stay and teach you how to use hidden weapons and archery."

"ah."

Amber became happy after hearing this, so she pulled Hongye to the yard to prepare. The faster she learned, the better, as she had to master various skills as soon as possible.

Dress up.

Parading all the way through the city.

When everyone saw Chu Jiuning's carriage, they were filled with awe, and some even knelt down to worship.

At this moment.

The three words "Chu Jiuning" left a real mark in the hearts of people all over the world.

She is no longer a small merchant.

But.

A goddess with the same status as gods and Buddhas.

In the private room on the third floor of Guixian Tower, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince stood on the terrace, watching Chu Jiuning's carriage come in, watching her get off the carriage, and hearing her go upstairs.

The door was pushed open.

A light and elegant fragrance filled the air, and Chu Jiuning appeared with a bright and beautiful appearance.

The prince turned and looked at her.

It was a very strange feeling, as if I was looking forward to her coming and wanted to pull her in.

"Greetings, Your Highness."

Chu Jiuning stepped forward and saluted, presenting him with a newly made jade ring.

"I asked the master below to make this. I have a Diamond Sutra carved into it and gave it to Your Highness."

The prince's eyes were gentle. He took it and took a closer look. Sure enough, the inside of the jade ring was engraved with densely packed words. This really required skill.

Then.

He handed the jade ring to Chu Jiuning. Chu Jiuning frowned. Doesn’t Your Highness like it?

"Please help me put it on."

Chu Jiuning pursed her lips slightly, took the ring and put it on His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, then nodded.

"It fits perfectly and looks great."

The two of them then turned and entered the private room, nestling into the wide chairs. Chu Jiuning pursed her lips slightly as she listened to the lively sounds outside the window.

"Your Highness, thank you very much for burning the incense. Otherwise, I really don't know how this would end."

If His Highness had not sent additional imperial guards and kept an eye on the hall in advance, it would not have been easy for Amber to go in and activate the Buddha statue.

"The statue was moved to another hall and replaced with an identical one in its original location."

Even if someone were to investigate, they wouldn't be able to find out anything.

The prince's eyes were cold.

"The person behind this is Duke Song."

Chu Jiuning blinked, and the image of the young man next to Duke Song appeared in her mind. Who was that? Her intuition told her that the young man was related to Duke Song.

His face darkened.

"It seems that the problem in the Song Mansion is so serious that they can no longer contain themselves."
