Seeing the Prince Qin get angry, Yunniang was not in a hurry. "My lord, did you say that he couldn't participate in the martial arts competition? Su Wenzhou has Princess Chang Le by his side. Who in the capital doesn't know Princess Chang Le's medical skills? With her around, it won't be difficult for Su Wenzhou to be able to move for an hour or two temporarily."
As far as I know, Su Wenzhou's leg injury worsened after the martial arts competition. Now, let alone three months, it might take four or five months before he can stand up again.
"Sir, our Dark Alliance received the money and did what we promised you, so it doesn't constitute a breach of contract."
A sinister glint flashed in Qin Wang's eyes. "Does the Dark Alliance really think my money is so easy to swindle?"
Yunniang's smile widened. "Lord Qin, in our Dark Alliance business, we do things on a cash-on-delivery basis. You wanted Su Wenzhou to be injured in the leg, and we did. You wanted him to be unable to walk for three months, and he still can't walk for now. We haven't broken any agreements, so what's the problem? If you didn't want him to participate in the martial arts competition, why didn't you make that agreement in the first place?"
This is in the Great Chu, not in the Northern Li. In the Great Chu, no one has yet been born who would try to renege on our secret alliance's debts. If the King doesn't believe me, he's welcome to try.
Upon hearing Yunniang instantly change her address to "Qinwang," Qinwang was not surprised. If they couldn't even find out his identity, then they weren't part of the Dark Alliance.
However, when Yunniang called him that, Qinwang understood that she was telling him that the Dark Alliance already knew his identity. If it got out that he had used his identity to assassinate the Great Chu general, he would not fare well in the Great Chu.
The Prince remained silent, staring at Yunniang without flinching. Yunniang, however, showed no fear of his gaze and remained calm and composed.
Suddenly, Qin Wang burst into laughter, "Good, good, good, as expected of the Dark Alliance."
In fact, Qin Wang understood that the Dark Alliance had indeed taken action; otherwise, he couldn't imagine who else in the capital of Great Chu could have injured Su Wenzhou so quickly.
His ability to participate in the martial arts competition is probably due to Su Ruojin using some special methods or drugs to temporarily unleash Su Wenzhou's potential. Once the effects of the drugs wear off, Su Wenzhou will be more seriously injured.
Qin Wang had heard of similar incidents before, and strictly speaking, such an accident could not be blamed on the Dark Alliance.
"Thank you for your praise, Your Highness. Please rest assured, Your Highness, we will forget everything once our Dark Alliance business is over."
Yunniang's words were also telling Qin Wang that as long as he didn't renege on his debts, the Dark Alliance would definitely keep it a secret for him.
"Since I dare to ask the Dark Alliance to do something, I naturally trust them. However, I have a request now, and I don't know if the Dark Alliance has the ability to take it on."
Yunniang raised an eyebrow. "Tell me about your story, Prince Qin."
"I want Xiao Yanchu's head, and 100,000 taels of gold." The Prince Qin stared intently at Yunniang, trying to glean something from her expression.
Yunniang's expression didn't change much, only her smile faded a bit. "Your Majesty, with the death of the Regent of Great Chu, you probably know better than I do what will happen to Great Chu. With Xiao Yanchu's martial arts skills, let alone assassination, it would be difficult for ordinary people to even get close to him."
"What, the Dark Alliance is afraid to accept? I've heard that as long as the price is right, the Dark Alliance will accept any mission. If you think the price isn't enough, we can discuss it." The Prince of Qin wasn't surprised by Yun Niang's hesitation.
"This is no small matter, and I cannot answer you right now. Prince Qin, please wait a few days, and someone from us will contact you then."
"Alright! I await your good news."
After leaving the brothel, Qin Wang said, "Keep a close eye on him. I want to see who this leader of the Dark Alliance really is."
"yes!"
Qin Wang did not expect the Dark Alliance to actually kill Xiao Yanchu; he merely wanted to know who the leader of the Dark Alliance was. If this person could be used by him, he would surely help him achieve great things.

General's Mansion.
Su Wenzhou anxiously asked Su Ruojin, "Xiaojin, what exactly happened?"
Faced with Su Wenzhou's questioning, Su Ruojin knew that it would be unreasonable not to give her third brother an explanation for this matter.
She whispered, "Third Brother, you know about the Dark Alliance, right?"
Su Wenzhou nodded. "I know."
In the Great Chu, who doesn't know about the Dark Alliance?
Su Ruojin became a little embarrassed. "Well, I have a pretty good relationship with the leader of the Dark Alliance. She told me that the Prince of Qin offered five thousand taels of gold to buy you so that you couldn't walk for three months. I thought, why not make some money? So I just did a little trick. Here, the leader of the Dark Alliance gave me two thousand five hundred taels of gold, and I'll give you half of that."
After saying that, Su Ruojin took out a stack of silver notes from her bosom, counted out half of them, and handed them to Su Wenzhou.
