Chapter 164 How much private property did this guy hide secretly?
Shu Mingyuan escorted the people towards the county government office. The county government office in this town was also where they would spend the night when escorting exiled prisoners. They were familiar with the local officials of the county government office. When the prisoners were escorted to the county government office, they did not need to pay a visit to the county government official. The head jailer would come directly to lead them to the dungeon.
The head jailer looked at Shu Mingyuan and the others in such a mess and said with a smile, "Brother Mingyuan, didn't you find a place to hide from the rain earlier? Look at your wet clothes. You should find a place to take a bath later."
Shu Mingyuan smiled helplessly, "Alas, there's nothing I can do. I was unlucky enough to encounter a dam collapse when I came here. No matter how heavy the rain was, I didn't dare to hide from it!"
"Oh! What a coincidence? In recent months, there have been frequent natural disasters and man-made disasters in several towns around us. There are too many refugees on the road to drive them away. Have you encountered any refugees? Those refugees are so cruel. When they are very hungry, they are not afraid of the officials at all and will just rob you." The head jailer was a talkative person and talked a lot to Shu Mingyuan along the way.
Shu Mingyuan was embarrassed to say it out loud. They had also encountered them on the road and did not dare to encounter them. They were also robbed. It was because of the robbery by refugees that they were almost drowned.
Both the Shen and Liu families were taken to the dungeon. After counting the number of people, Shu Mingyuan left with his men.
As for the people from Prince Xiao's Mansion who had been following them, why didn't they follow them into the dungeon?
Not only did Guang Mingyuan and the others not mention it, but even the Shen and Liu families pretended not to notice and quietly found a place to sit down. They had been wet in the rain and hurried on the way, and were almost drowned in the river. They felt that they had survived the disaster, so who would dare to cause trouble for the Xiao Palace?
Besides, where did the people from Prince Xiao’s Mansion go who suddenly disappeared?
At this moment, the group from Prince Xiao's Mansion had already arrived at the largest restaurant in town - Mingyue Restaurant. The shopkeeper and the waiters all stood respectfully at the door of the restaurant to welcome Prince Xiao and Princess Xiao.
The guards stood in two rows at the entrance of the restaurant. How could that scene look like that of a demoted and exiled prince?
After welcoming the guests in, the shopkeepers told Prince Xiao to go to the Tianzihao upstairs. After Ji Xiaohan led the little princess into the room, the shopkeeper led several waiters to kneel down and saluted loudly, "The servants respectfully welcome the master. You and the princess have worked hard on the journey."
Su Wanyan widened her eyes in shock, looked at the people kneeling and kowtowing, then looked at Ji Xiaohan, and was extremely surprised.
So, this Mingyue Restaurant is also... Ji Xiaohan's private property?
How much private property has this guy secretly hidden?
If she remembered correctly, this Mingyue Restaurant seemed to have many branches across the country, right?
Ji Xiaohan received the surprised look from the little princess and simply pinched her fingers without explaining. He then looked at the shopkeeper with an indifferent expression. He always seemed very serious in front of his subordinates. "Get up, have you completed the task that I sent someone to instruct you to do?"
The shopkeeper first thanked him, then stood there with a bow and replied, "My Lord, we have prepared everything according to your request. We guarantee that you and the princess will be extremely comfortable when you ride."
After thinking for a moment, the shopkeeper said, "Master, may I ask if our Mingyue Restaurant will cooperate with the Meng family of Jinzhou?"
