Chapter 398 Reasoning

Uncle Zhang stood beside him: "Your Highness, calm down. You are not well yet, so don't get angry."

Xiao Yanli took a deep breath: "In just five or six days, she took away nearly half of Zuiyuelong's women! What is she going to do? What does Banzhuang do? She was allowed to take people away so easily?!"

Uncle Zhang: "Your Highness, calm down, calm down. Banzhuang has no choice. Your identity cannot be exposed. With Jiang Zhiyu's background, who in the whole Shengjing dares to stop her?"

"Even if Banzhuang uses force, she is no match for Jiang Zhiyu."

Xiao Yanli was speechless.

"Is there no other way?" He pinched his brows: "Since she wants to bring people, let's find a way to let her bring a few of our people and find out what she wants to do!"

"No, Your Highness, Banzhuang has tried it," Uncle Zhang sighed: "Banzhuang always interspersed them and let them serve Jiang Zhiyu, but Jiang Zhiyu seemed to have known all the details of all the women, and every time she took away the women who were sold in accurately."

Xiao Yanli: "..."

"Forget it, those people are not of much use anyway, just find another one."

His eyes flashed: "With so many people, we can make a lot of money from her."

Thinking of Jiang Zhiyu's greed for money, Xiao Yanli's depressed heart was relieved a little.

Uncle Zhang wanted to say something but stopped.

Xiao Yanli didn't see his expression, and said briskly: "How much did she pay?"

Uncle Zhang: "...No, she didn't pay."

Xiao Yanli: "???!!!"

This was definitely the most round eyes Xiao Yanli had ever had in his life: "Didn't pay? How did she take the people away?!"

"...The bill was one hundred taels per person, thirty people, a total of three thousand taels, and she hasn't paid a cent so far."

Xiao Yanli: "!!!"

He raised his head suddenly, with a shocked expression: "Did she trick Banzhuang? How could she take thirty people away like this?!"

He was naturally aware of Banzhuang's ability, so he handed Zuiyue Long to her.

Apart from tricking her, Xiao Yanli couldn't find a second reason to explain this.

Uncle Zhang was actually confused. The information he knew was mixed from the letters sent by the spies and Banzhuang.

"Prepare the car, I want to go and see it myself."

...

In Zuiyuelong, Jiang Zhiyu was arguing with Banzhuang.

"It's really not going to work, Miss Jiang. You said how many people you have taken away, and you haven't even given me a penny so far! What do you say today? You can't take these two people away."

"If this goes on, will our Zuiyuelong business continue?"

Banzhuang held the indenture tightly, and stared at Jiang Zhiyu with a pair of phoenix eyes.

"Is it really not going to work? There is no room for negotiation?"

"It's not going to work. There is absolutely no room for negotiation!"

Banzhuang turned her face away.

Jiang Zhiyu sighed: "Okay, then I can only reason with you."

She rolled up her sleeves, Banzhuang looked at her nervously, and the guards beside her hurried to stand in front of Banzhuang.

"What do you want to do? Even if you are a general, you can't force others with force like this..."

"When did I force others with force?" Jiang Zhiyu looked at her: "I told you to reason with me, come closer."

Banzhuang: "..."

Banzhuang looked at her suspiciously.

Jiang Zhiyu waited patiently for her, and there were curious eyes all around. Jiang Zhiyu looked around carelessly and saw a familiar figure in the crowd.

Jiang Zhiyu's eyes showed some ill intentions.

Banzhuang seemed to have thought it through.

She pushed aside the guards and walked up to Jiang Zhiyu: "Go ahead." Her tone was cold and hard, but Jiang Zhiyu didn't care at all. She tiptoed to whisper in her ear: "The person behind Zuiyuelong is the Sixth Prince, right?"

A trace of surprise flashed across Banzhuang's eyes. Even though she concealed it very quickly, at such a close distance, Jiang Zhiyu naturally felt her body stiffen for a moment and her heavier breathing.

"You also know my identity, don't move..." Jiang Zhiyu stopped Banzhuang who wanted to retreat: "If I tell the emperor, you will really have no chance of opening this Zuiyue Long."

Let's not talk about whether the prince's opening a brothel is a joke or not. Given the emperor's suspicion, he will definitely associate it with many things. Wouldn't the master's actions be more restricted...

Thinking of this, Banzhuang swallowed nervously, but she still wanted to fight: "You have no evidence. Even if you tell it, the emperor will not believe you so much."

Due to her lack of confidence, her tone seemed a little empty.

Jiang Zhiyu chuckled: "Do you believe what you said? Do you want to bet? Does the emperor believe me or Xiao Yanli? How about the bet, it's this Drunken Moon Lantern?"

To trust an outsider or to trust one's own son, most people would agree, but in front of the royal family, it might be the exact opposite.

Banzhuang hesitated, her eyes changing unpredictably.

Jiang Zhiyu did not urge her, just glanced at the crowd vaguely again.

Uncle Zhang: "Your Highness... Young Master, has she discovered us?"

Xiao Yanli was also a little uncertain. He looked at her tentatively for a few times, and when he saw that Jiang Zhiyu's eyes were elsewhere, he breathed a sigh of relief.

[I can't even complain about this disguise. ]

[Do you think you're putting this aside for filming a TV series? If you put on a veil, the whole world won't recognize you? ]

[I can't look at you any more. If I look at you any more, I'm going to explode. 】

After a few breaths, Banzhuang also made up her mind. She took a step back and put the indenture neatly in Jiang Zhiyu's hand: "Miss Jiang, take care. Have you put today's amount in the account?"

Jiang Zhiyu raised her lips slightly: "Smart." She raised her voice: "I see that you are very compatible. Come to my house to talk about it another day." Banzhuang

thought she was squeezing herself and forced a smile: "I am very grateful to be able to catch Miss Jiang's eye. I will visit you another day."

The two of them went out of the door with hypocritical feelings, which made everyone stunned.

After leaving the door, Jiang Zhiyu lowered her head and smiled softly.

[The seeds of doubt have been planted, and we just have to wait for them to take root and sprout.]

[Water and loosen the soil from time to time.]

[The day of dog-eat-dog is not far away.]

Uncle Zhang stood beside Xiao Yanli, not daring to speak.

Xiao Yanli's face was gloomy. He had seen the scene just now, and naturally saw Banzhuang's sudden change of attitude.

After arriving at the mansion, she agreed. Could it be that Jiang Zhiyu wanted to win over Banzhuang, and Banzhuang agreed?

No, it was impossible. He had done Banzhuang a favor, and Banzhuang had been with him for so many years. It was absolutely impossible for her to betray him.

Although he thought so, his expression did not relax at all.

With the cover of the crowd, Xiao Yanli and Uncle Zhang went upstairs and entered an empty room.

Soon, Banzhuang also came in.

She half-knelt on the ground: "Master."

"Get up, I have read your letter."

Xiao Yanli's voice was flat.

"Then does the master have any solution?"
