Chapter 259 Jealous Again
Such a huge number sounded light and airy when it came out of Shen Wan's mouth.
It was as if what she was talking about was not gold, but just broken stones on the roadside.
Seven or eight guards, and Chen Yan who fell on the carriage, plus the 100,000 taels owed previously, this would be nearly 160,000 taels, and it was all gold!
In recent years, foreign countries have been harassing the border for a long time, and coupled with successive natural disasters, the people of Wei have long been living in dire straits.
One hundred and sixty thousand taels of gold is almost enough for the annual fiscal revenue of the Wei Dynasty!
The third prince did some calculations and felt that he was so poor that he didn't even have any underwear left.
Even if no one touched the coal mine again, he would have to sell it to pay off his debts.
The problem is that even if we sell the coal mine, it is still far from enough to get 160,000 taels of gold!
The guards died, so did they. He had plenty of men under his command anyway. At worst, he could just pick a few more from the army.
But if a commander goes to Miaojiang alone and is seen by others, it will seem bad for his image.
Anyway, it was less than 10,000 taels of gold, so I just gritted my teeth and paid it. As for Chen Yan...
Thinking of this, the Third Prince raised his eyes and looked at Shen Wan: "Miss Shen has been bitten to death by a poisonous snake, and there is no need to save her. Just save these guards."
Shen Wan was not surprised by this.
In the eyes of the Third Prince, Chen Yan is no more important than gold.
If she died, he could still put the blame on Miao Jiang.
When the time comes, he can mediate and maybe even reap the benefits.
Shen Yan had just woken up and heard this as the first sentence. She was so angry that her lungs almost exploded.
For him, she left the capital and traveled thousands of miles to hunt down Xie Mubai!
But what did we get in the end?
First he used himself as a shield, and now he is unwilling to pay even the mere 50,000 taels of gold!
Shen Wan was standing right across from Little Green Tea and noticed she was awake the first time.
"Even if she dies, you have to collect her body." She rolled her eyes and said deliberately, "After all, you two are in love with each other, you can't even not take care of her funeral, right?"
"Who said that she and I are in love?" The Third Prince immediately distanced himself from the matter and said, "I only take care of her for your father's sake."
"In my heart, she is not as important as you!"
"I swear, I have never forgotten your kindness in saving my life!"
Upon hearing this, Shen Yan's face turned pale with anger.
"Xiao, you're so cruel!" She gritted her teeth, struggled to get up from the carriage, pointed at the Third Prince's nose and cursed, "Do you think you can do whatever you want just because you're a prince?"
"Bah!"
Before she finished speaking, she looked at Shen Wan and said, “Let me tell you the truth. It was Concubine Yu who asked me to kill Xie Mubai.”
"She promised that as soon as Xie Mubai died, she would immediately ask the Emperor to grant me and the Third Prince a marriage!"
Haha, doesn’t someone want to hook up with that little bitch?
She wanted to see if he could still hook up with Shen Wan after exposing his past!
Even if Little Green Tea didn't say it, Shen Wan knew this.
Although the villain has lost his power, his spies are still there.
The seemingly non-competitive Concubine Yu is actually more ambitious than anyone else.
"You're talking nonsense!" The Third Prince's face suddenly changed when he heard this. "Mother has always been indifferent to fame and fortune and has never cared about worldly affairs. How could she possibly do such a thing?"
"Why not?" Chen Yan stiffened her neck and sneered with contempt, "Didn't you also forge a letter to slander the Duke of Zhenguo?"
Upon hearing this, Xie Mubai, who was hiding in the bushes, suddenly narrowed his eyes.
Clearly, this little green tea knows something.
Without even thinking, he immediately walked out of the bushes.
Seeing the big villain suddenly come out, the third prince's face changed.
"One hundred thousand taels of gold, and I will save you." Xie Mubai looked at Chen Yan coldly with a gloomy face.
Shen Yan looked surprised: "Didn't you say 50,000?"
"The price has gone up now." Xie Mubai said impatiently.
Looking at Xie Mubai and then at Shen Wan, Shen Yan finally made a decision.
She immediately tore off a piece of her sleeve and began to write an IOU: "Okay, one hundred thousand is one hundred thousand!"
"As soon as I leave here, I'll tell my dad to send the money!"
Ever since being robbed by Chen Wan, the Xiangyang Marquis Mansion is now so poor that it is almost begging for food.
But as long as she can survive, she doesn't mind any amount of money.
Xie Mubai didn't say anything.
He took the long whip from Shen Wan's hand, exerted a little force, and the long rope flew straight towards Shen Yan like a spirit snake.
The third prince looked at it and his eyes moved slightly.
Sure enough, he is quite skilled.
As soon as Shen Yan's feet touched the ground, her legs went limp with fright and she fell forward.
Black Hawk stood behind the villain, while Ran Qiu and Ling Xiaoxiao stood on both sides.
Xie Mubai had no time to dodge, and Chen Yan's soft body fell directly into his arms.
When he saw the little green tea in his arms, he was startled and pushed her away.
Shen Wan was caught off guard and fell headfirst into the air.
"I...I bumped into her accidentally." Xie Mubai didn't even look at her and hurriedly explained to Shen Wan.
Although this little woman rarely gets jealous recently, Shen Yan is different.
Chen Yan was a thorn in the heart of this little woman. After all, they had been engaged and almost got married.
Shen Wan stared at him coldly, then turned and left.
"Miss Shen, we are still here!" The other guards were frightened and shouted.
Although Xie Mubai was there, he was too good at raising the price, and they didn't think the third prince would be so generous.
"Let your master save you. I'm not going to do this business anymore!" Shen Wan said unhappily.
The third prince wants to save him.
The problem was that the rope was in Xie Mubai's hand, and he didn't dare to snatch it.
He hesitated for a moment, then hurried after Shen Wan.
Of course he would chase her.
This little woman must have some treasure on her to be able to walk here safely.
As long as he followed her, he would be safe.
Seeing that their master had abandoned them, the guards were shocked and angry.
They risked their lives for him, but now they were in danger, how could he just ignore them?
The Third Prince doesn't care about them, and Xie Mubai is even less likely to care.
Shen Wan, the money-grubber, might still make a move for some gold, but he wouldn't.
Seeing Shen Wan leave, he followed her.
"Take me with you!" Shen Yan's face turned pale with fright and she screamed in horror.
The little bit of strength she had had was already used up when she scolded the Third Prince. Now her legs were weak and she couldn't even take one more step.
Ling Xiaoxiao would never carry her on her back, and Ran Qiu would certainly not do that.
Shen Yan is Shen Wan’s enemy, so she naturally won’t support her master’s enemy.
At this time, this unfortunate job can only fall on Black Hawk.
There's no way, the person was saved by the young master.
Seeing Black Hawk carrying Shen Yan on his back, Ling Xiaoxiao's face turned a little ugly.
Along the way, she was full of sarcasm.
Despite the scolding, with her leading the way, the group quickly walked out of the forest.
As soon as they walked out of the forest, Black Hawk threw Chen Yan on the gravel ground in annoyance and walked forward with the carriage.
Now that he had entered the Miao village, he was not afraid that she would escape.
The terrain here is steep and you may be bitten by poisonous insects if you are not careful.
Chen Yan doesn't know martial arts, let alone medical skills, so no matter how stupid she is, she would never dare to run away.
Shen Wan walked in front with a sullen face.
Seeing that she was unhappy, Xie Mubai deliberately pointed to a place not far away and said with a smile: "Wan'er, look, there are rabbits over there."
"Don't you like rabbit meat? I'll go get some for you."
