"Your Highness's life is indeed worth twenty thousand taels of gold... No, I'm saying that Your Highness's life is worth more than twenty thousand taels of gold... No..."
The more Zhu Wuyou said, the more mistakes he made, and cold sweat rolled down Cen Cen's cheeks.
Raising his hand to wipe the sweat off his face, Zhu Wuyou felt a little relieved. He then said, "If the prince really gives it to me, what should I do next?"
It was impossible for him to really take Li Junyan's life.
Even if he wanted to, he didn't have the ability!
How could he possibly do something that even the prince couldn't do?
"I only want the gold, and naturally I won't do anything else."
Zhu Wuyou suddenly became anxious, "Then the prince will definitely not let me go!"
"Isn't that just right?" Li Junyan asked with a smile, "This way you'll have one less master, and you'll be able to relax a lot."
Zhu Wuyou stared at Li Junyan in a daze. At this time, he finally understood what Li Junyan meant.
It is true that Prince Chen wanted to ask the Crown Prince for gold, but it is also true that he wanted to test his loyalty.
It's even more true that he wants him to never be able to return to the prince's side!
After figuring it all out, Zhu Wuyou had a wry smile on his face.
Even if he figured this out, what would be the use?
Is it possible that he could not listen to Prince Chen?
If he didn't obey, he even doubted whether he could survive today.
If the Prince of Chen really killed him and then told the Emperor that he committed suicide out of fear of punishment after being discovered for corruption, even if the Emperor did not believe it, he would not stand up for him.
It was even more impossible for the prince to travel thousands of miles from Chang'an to avenge him.
The more he thought about it, the sadder the expression on Zhu Wuyou's face became.
It seemed like he had no choice but to obey.
Even though he knew it was not easy to live, Zhu Wuyou still wanted to live, and he wanted to live one more day.
After making up his mind, Zhu Wuyou gritted his teeth and said, "Okay! I will listen to you, Your Majesty."
Li Junyan pointed to the pen, ink, paper and inkstone on the table and said, "Now that we have decided, let's start writing!
When you finish writing, I will send it to Chang'an as fast as I can."
Zhu Wuyou's face turned pale again when he heard this, but he finally stood up, walked to the desk, picked up the brush, and began to write the letter under Li Junyan's gaze.
The letter was very short and was written exactly according to what Li Junyan had just said.
After reading it, Li Junyan handed the letter directly to Xu San and said, "Hurry and deliver it to the Crown Prince."
"yes."
Xu San took the letter and went out, leaving only Li Junyan and Zhu Wuyou in the study.
Before writing the letter, Zhu Wuyou looked uneasy and had all kinds of worries in his heart.
But now, the letter has been written and will be sent out soon.
Now that things have become a foregone conclusion, I suddenly feel less worried and scared.
Zhu Wuyou smiled widely and looked at Li Junyan eagerly, "Your Highness, I will go and take inventory of the things in the mansion, and then have them taken to other prefectures to sell them and bring them back for silver or food, shall I?"
Li Junyan looked at Zhu Wuyou indifferently, "No need."
Zhu Wuyou's smile froze, "Your Highness, do you not trust me?"
"Why should I trust you?"
Li Junyan said, and shouted, "Lin Qi."
A moment later, Lin Qi appeared in the study.
"Lin Qi, go move everything that can be moved from this house to the study."
When Lin Qi heard this, his eyes lit up instantly.
He is familiar with this job!
This is the goddess taking action!
Lin Qi took the order and left, but Zhu Wuyou's face was full of suspicion.
Although his study is quite large, with only a few rooms, how can it possibly hold all the things in the mansion?
What does Prince Chen want to do?
Although Zhu Wuyou didn't say anything, his eyes were full of doubts.
Li Junyan saw Zhu Wuyou's expression, but pretended not to see it.
"Let's take the things out of this study first!"
Sang Jueqian, who had been staring at him, knew that these words were directed at him when he heard them.
Rubbing his hands excitedly, Sang Jueqian slowly inserted his right hand.
The first thing my fingers touched was a large bookcase against the wall.
Sang Jueqian thought about it, and the large bookcase disappeared in the study, and appeared in the space the next moment.
Looking at the extra things in the space, Sang Jueqian smiled with relief.
This is so convenient!
Li Junyan looked at this scene and started laughing too.
I originally had to find a way to transport these things to Xizhou, but now it’s much easier!
Qianqian is still awesome!
Zhu Wuyou, who also saw this scene, was stunned.
"This, this, this....Wang, Wang, Wang...Your Majesty!
This hand...what's going on?"
Sang Jueqian's hand changed direction and went straight to Zhu Wuyou. He lifted Zhu Wuyou up with two fingers and shook him up and down and left and right.
After he became dizzy, Sang Jueqian let go and threw him to the ground.
Zhu Wuyou was thrown all over the place and his whole body was sore, but he didn't care at all. He still stared at the huge hand in front of him with wide eyes in disbelief.
"Is this... a deity?"
If not a god, how could a normal person have such big hands?
Wherever the finger touched, everything in the study began to disappear out of thin air.
After a while, the entire study was empty except for the chair Li Junyan was sitting on.
Zhu Wuyou got up from the ground, knelt down, and kowtowed to Sang Jueqian's hand repeatedly.
"God! God! I've seen a god!"
Sang Jueqian flicked Zhu Wuyou to the ground with one finger.
She wouldn't let someone like that worship her!
Li Junyan looked at Zhu Wuyou with cold eyes, "You are not worthy of worshipping her."
Zhu Wuyou looked ashamed, but his tone was full of agreement, "Yes! Your Highness is right, this humble official is indeed unworthy! This humble official has done too many evil things before!
Rest assured, Your Majesty, for the rest of my life, I will only do good deeds, only do kind things, atone for my sins, and strive to wash away my sins as soon as possible so that I can worship the gods with a clean heart."
When saying this, Zhu Wuyou's eyes were extremely pious, without any sign of lying.
Sang Jueqian had heard before that the more evil a person does, the more he believes in gods and Buddhas, but he had never seen it with his own eyes. Now he has seen it for himself.
Looking at Zhu Wuyou's extremely pious expression, Sang Jueqian snorted coldly, deliberately lowered his voice, and said in a deep voice, "Zhu Wuyou, I will watch you. I will see everything you do."
Zhu Wuyou quickly knelt down again and kowtowed heavily, "Don't worry, Immortal, I will never dare to do the bad things I did before again. From now on, I will definitely obey the prince in everything, provide relief to the victims, help the people, reclaim wasteland for farming, dig wells and open canals!"
As the governor of a provincial capital, Zhu Wuyou was very clear about his responsibilities.
But the more pious and serious he spoke, the angrier Sang Jueqian became.
Those who are ignorant are not at fault; those who knowingly commit a crime shall die!
