Chapter 93 Princess Xiao's words, no horse dares to chase
Liu watched Su Wanyan's movements with a dazed look in her eyes. What did she see? Princess Xiao openly instigated a guilty minister's wife to take bribes?
Regardless of whether Liu understood or not, Su Wanyan continued, "Didn't you say it just now? As long as you can save Shen Xinhou, you are willing to go bankrupt?"
Liu's words were not just a casual remark. It was obvious that the Shen family's assets had not been completely confiscated. They must still have a lot of money hidden in their hands. As long as Shen Xinhou was not dead, the money promised to them by the prince and the queen would be possible to be redeemed.
It was with this in mind that Liu tried to find a way to keep Shen Xinhou.
But no matter how well her plans went, it still depended on whether those people were willing to let them live in peace.
Instead of leaving the money in the hands of these dying people, it would be better to use it to do good deeds or keep it somewhere else, such as her space which is quite spacious.
Liu didn't expect that Su Wanyan was thinking about their Shen family's money, and was stumped for a moment. They had the money, but if they took it all out to exchange for Shen Xinhou's life, they were afraid that they would end up losing both their money and their lives!
"How about it? Is this a reasonable deal? Money makes the world go round. As long as you show enough sincerity, I will ensure that you can reach Quanzhou safely." Su Wanyan continued to persuade with the tone of a weird uncle tricking a child into eating a lollipop.
Liu's heart was moved. "Princess, are you telling the truth?"
Their plan had been discovered by the people in Prince Xiao's mansion, and they were likely to face difficulties along the way. However, if they could truly have this promise from Princess Xiao, they would be able to reach Quanzhou safely...
"No horse dares to chase after Princess Xiao's words. Don't worry, I always keep my word."
Of course it counts. After all, you get what you pay for. She only said that she would ensure their safety on the way to Quanzhou, but she didn't say anything about their life or death after entering Quanzhou. When the time comes, everyone will go their separate ways. Who will care about who's life or death?
Liu considered it for a long time, and finally nodded through gritted teeth, "Okay, I believe the princess, I agree."
Su Wanyan stretched out her hand, "Then give it to me. One hand gives me the money, the other hand gives me the person."
Shen Xinhou still trusted Liu, and all the Shen family's property and belongings were handed over to Liu.
At this moment, no matter how painful it was for Liu, for the future of the Shen family and to save Shen Xinhou's life, she tremblingly tore off a pocket sewn into the lining of her clothes, which contained all the real estate deeds and gold and silver notes of the Shen family.
"Princess, this is all the property of our Shen family. I will give you all the gold and silver notes. What do you think?" Liu took it and felt reluctant to part with it.
Su Wanyan was not in a hurry. She turned around and instructed Xiao Wu beside her, "Xiao Wu, go and remove the two of Shen Xinhou's legs, and break one of his legs. We will give you as much money as you take."
Xiao Wu obeyed the order and turned to leave. He looked like he was going to remove someone's arm. He looked like he was going to kill someone. This frightened Liu Shi no longer dared to bargain. She stuffed everything in her hand into Xiao Wu's hand and said, "No, no, no, I'll give it to you. I'll give it all to you. I won't leave any."
Xiao Wu stopped and stood there with the money in his hand, pleading for mercy. "Princess, I think Liu Shi has had a hard time too. How about you show some mercy and not bother with her?"
