The fool has become a spirit, and she can speak

More late at night.

The room was extremely quiet, even outside was silent. Cheng Feng, whose heart had sunk to the bottom, wore a straw hat and held his forehead with one hand. He didn't know where the little fire in his heart had burned to.

About half a cup of tea later, footsteps were heard outside. There seemed to be about seven or eight people. Because they were too familiar with the place, the two people in the room could still recognize Cheng Youning's imperceptible footsteps among the crowd.

Wan Lianxing sighed deeply when he heard this. It was time to teach him a lesson.

Crunch!

The door was pushed open gently from the outside.

The person who came was Cheng Youning. Only Qiao Rong entered the room with him. The others stayed outside and waited.

Cheng Youning glanced at the two people who were sitting there in disguise and did not see where they came from. He just heard Datian say that two people who were neither businessmen nor officials had come, and judging by their clothes, they should be gangsters.

However, Cheng Youning did not see any trace of chivalrous men in them. He had seen a lot of people at night for many days in a row, and he could divide people into different classes at a glance. People who did not show their true faces were probably not upright people. They might have committed some serious crime and came to him to seek help to avoid disaster.

Cheng Youning lifted up his skirt and sat on the chair with a cold expression. Soon someone came in and brought him tea.

What a big airs! Cheng Feng was itching to bite them at this moment. These were the suckers who came to his door and spent real money, so why did this kid still have a cold face? When Cheng Youning was selling groceries on the street in the past, he knew how to greet people with a smile, but now he is acting like a prince. Knowing that he has a noble status, why is he secretly making money?

Cheng Feng cursed in his heart over and over again: This child is useless, he is not even suitable for doing business, and he is even less likely to be a prince.

Cheng Youning picked up the teacup and took a sip after a long while. He slowly put the teacup down and said in a cold voice, "Wang Er, right? I heard that you wanted to see this prince."

Wan Lianxing was furious. This kid was good at nothing but putting on airs. "Yes, I am Wang Er. We spent 20,000 taels of silver to see the prince. Prince, you sold this kite for a sky-high price."

"Business is all about mutual consent. If you don't want to spend money, you can go around it! There is no forced buying or selling here."

"I wouldn't have come today if I hadn't spared the money. The cheapest kite here costs one thousand taels, and the most expensive ones cost over ten thousand taels. You are disrupting the market."

"Wang Er, you probably haven't asked around in the market, right? Ever since I started selling kites, kites have been selling like hot cakes in the entire Fengying City. I wonder how much those kite vendors are thanking me."

"You are selling kites under the banner of the royal family. Don't you think it is an insult to the royal family?"

Cheng Youning asked back, "Are you prejudiced against merchants? Are goods exchange, buying and selling, and these things shameful? We in Fengqi encourage the people to cultivate wasteland and farm, and we also encourage the people to trade and do business. Do you know which part of the tax we in Fengqi is the heaviest? It's the business tax. Why do you, Wang Er, look down on merchants so much? Don't forget, our Wan family has been doing business for generations, even the emperor has been learning the way of business since he was a child. This prince sells a few kites just to pass on the business way of my Wan family. What's wrong with that? It's not shameful at all."

"How ridiculous! You're actually using the Emperor and the Wan family as an excuse!"

"I can do whatever I want to anyone, but you two, anyone who comes to my mansion must show your true face. You two are hiding behind your hats. Are you ashamed to be seen?"

"If you want to see my true face, it depends on whether you have the courage!"

"Oh! You are so arrogant. You dare to bluff in front of this prince. I think you are tired of living!" Cheng Youning shouted to the people outside the door: "Close the door and beat the dog!"

When Cheng Youning entered the room, he felt that the two men in front of him were out of place at first glance. Each of them covered his face with a straw hat. This was just as Datian said, they were neither businessmen nor officials, and they were not like the underworld. It was obvious at first glance that they were not good people.

As soon as Cheng Youning finished speaking, the door of the house was locked from the outside.

The teacup next to Cheng Youning seemed to have eyes and flew towards Wan Lianxing, cursing: "You bastard, you dare to come to this prince's house to cause trouble. You two are lucky today. This prince has decided to personally send you two off."

"You little bastard, how dare you disobey your superiors..." Before Cheng Feng could even finish his curse, Cheng Youning had already swung his sword at Wan Lianxing. The room was not big, and two against two was no way to break through. Besides, no one could beat Cheng Youning faster. Wan Lianxing felt a gust of wind coming towards him, and relying on his intuition, Wan Lianxing dodged Cheng Youning's sword.

"Hahahaha, you're not bad at all. You were able to dodge this prince's sword."

"Cheng Youning, put down your sword quickly." Cheng Feng was really afraid that Cheng Youning would stab Wan Lianxing with his sword, which would lead to a big mistake.

Cheng Youning was circling around Wan Lianxing, not realizing that the man being beaten by Qiao Rong was his father. Cheng Youning's weird laughter echoed throughout the room, but he did hear something wrong in Cheng Feng's words, "You dare to call me the prince's name, Qiao Rong, beat him to death!"

Wan Lianxing was so angry that he held his forehead with his hand, "How dare you kill someone at such a young age?"

"This prince dares to kill a chicken, but this is the first time I have killed a person. However, I can use you as a training ground. Who asked you to die? However, if you kneel down and beg me, I can consider sparing your lives."

Wan Lianxing said sternly: "Kneel down!"

"If you don't accept my toast, you will be punished. How dare you make this prince kneel down?" Cheng Youning also got angry.

Wan Lianxing felt a sword stabbing towards him, but he didn't even blink because his personal guard was nearby.

At this moment, a strong wind broke through the door and Cheng Youning shouted, "Who?"

With great speed, Cheng Youning turned around and started fighting with the man. The room was too small, not enough for two masters to fight, so in just a short moment, the room was quiet. Cheng Feng released Qiao Rong, who was shackled by him, took off the straw hat on his head and threw it on the ground, "Uncle, are you okay?"

Wan Lianxing sat down on the chair with a sullen face, "This rebellious son is lawless and now dares to kill people."

Only then did Qiao Rong know who the two people in disguise were, "... Your Majesty... Your Highness..."

In an instant, Qiao Rong's eyes were filled with tears. This time he was doomed.

Wan Lianxing took off his hat and placed it on the table, "Qiao Rong, come here!"

Qiao Rong rolled over and knelt in front of Wan Lianxing, "Your Majesty, I know I was wrong. The prince and I didn't know you were coming. I deserve to die..." Qiao Rong said as he kowtowed to Wan Lianxing and begged for forgiveness.
