I married the crippled queen and became the most favored queen in the capital

three days later

Luo Nianxi just came back from Bao'an Hall. Leng Yiyan has recovered well and the anesthesia can be removed tomorrow and he can be admitted to the general ward.

Therefore, she must go out today. She must find out as soon as possible who the people hiding in Prince Yan's Mansion are working for.

She winked at Ling Xiao and Jiang Hai who were guarding the door, then called out loudly:

"Chun Tao, let's go to the street."

Chuntao responded from not far away.

"Yes, I will go and arrange the carriage."

"No, just walk. I'm sore from staying in the mansion these past few days. It's time to go out for a walk and buy some clothes for the prince."

"Yes."

Chuntao agreed and ran over quickly.

"Princess, please."

After Luo Nianxi winked at Ling Xiao again, she took Chuntao and walked out of the gate of Prince Yan's Mansion.

As soon as she left, she saw Butler Lu also leaving the house.

Su Yi, who was hiding in the dark, saw this and quickly followed...

I saw Butler Lu moving stealthily along the way, as if he was afraid that others would discover his whereabouts.

It was not until they arrived at the backyard of the Prince's Mansion and entered through the back door that Luo Nianxi and Chuntao appeared in front of Su Yi.

"It really is him..."

Su Yi folded her arms, frowned and asked:

"Could it be that the assassin was hired by the prince?"

"It's not certain yet, but there must be something wrong with this housekeeper Lu coming here."

"So what should we do? Should we catch him and question him on the spot?"

"No, it's too early to arrest him now. We just need to know who is not on our side and be more careful in the future."

"Yes, shall we go back?"

"No, let's go to the Human City. Last time I went out, I encountered an assassin, which put my plan on hold. This time I just happened to be out, so let's do this all at once!"

After they finished talking, they walked towards Renshi.

The human market and vegetable market in Chang'an City were adjacent to each other. They crossed the main street and were about to step into the human market when they heard a cry not far away.

Chuntao pointed to a place not far away.

"Princess, there are so many people there, shall we go take a look?"

Su Yi hurriedly reminded,

"Don't join in the fun, let's do our business!"

Luo Nianxi felt that what he said made sense. Just as she was about to leave, she heard someone in the crowd shouting:

"I'll give you two taels of silver. Bury your father, and then you can come with me."

"I won't go to that kind of place. I can be a maid or a laborer, but I can't go to a brothel."

"You silly girl, you sold yourself to bury your father, why are you still pretending to be noble? Look, you have been kneeling here for a whole morning, who is willing to pay to buy you? Besides, business in the human market is not good now, and the two taels of silver I give you is already a high price, are you going to leave or not?"

"I won't leave. I won't leave..."

"Someone, take this dead girl away and throw this dead person into the mass grave..."

"Don't touch my father, don't touch him, please, don't touch him..."

This unpleasant sound made Luo Nianxi feel angry. She turned around decisively, pushed through the crowd, and saw two men pulling a girl in tattered clothes, and two other men were preparing to lift a corpse on the ground.

The fat man in the lead was grinning and laughing triumphantly.

"stop!"

There was disgust in Luo Nianxi's voice.

The fat man glanced at Luo Nianxi and suddenly showed a lewd smile.

"Hey, where did this little beauty come from? She is so pretty. Do you want to go with me? I'll give you ten taels of silver."

Seeing this, Su Yi raised the long sword in her hand and pointed it at the fat man's throat, warning him fiercely.

"Shut your dirty mouth. The person in front of you is your aunt. If you dare to be frivolous with me, I will cut off your tongue."

As he spoke, he swung the sword in his hand with sharp eyes. The fat man was so scared that he immediately knelt on the ground. Seeing this, the other people also knelt down.

Luo Nianxi waved her hand, signaling him not to bother with these scumbags.

Su Yi kicked the fat man to the ground and then scolded him coldly:

"roll!"

The fat man then crawled to his feet from the ground and ran away with his men in panic.

Seeing this, the ragged woman ran to Luo Nianxi and knelt on the ground.

"Thank you for saving my life, girl..."

She looked at the dead man lying on the ground, turned back and said to Chuntao:

"Give her two taels of silver and let her bury the man!"

After saying this, she turned around and was about to leave, but the woman held her back again.

"Girl, I am here to sell myself to bury my father. Now if you give me money to bury my father, I will be yours. Please leave me your address and I will come back to find you. I will be your slave."

Luo Nianxi shook her head and chuckled.

"We will meet again if we are destined to. You should bury your father first!"

Leaving these words behind, she walked out of the crowd and headed straight for the human city.

Chun Tao asked in a puzzled voice,

"Princess, we are going to buy a maid anyway, why don't you tell her to go to Prince Yan's mansion?"

"He just lost his father, it's pitiful enough, how can we take advantage of him?"

Chuntao followed her, not quite understanding what was going on, until they came to a large cage and stopped.

She looked at the four people sitting in the cage and frowned.

These men look strong and healthy. It would be nice to buy them back and use them as guards.

She waved to Ren Yazi, who had a tuft of mustache and ran over with a nod.

"Girl, how many do you want to buy?"

She pointed at the men in the cage.

"What are their prices?"

"Girl, to be honest, these guys came from far away. They are tall, healthy, and hardworking, so their prices are naturally high. If you want to find an ordinary servant, you don't have to look for one like this. There are a few cheaper ones over there."

Luo Nianxi frowned in displeasure.

"I asked you what the price is for these people. What are you talking about?"

Seeing that someone wanted to buy them, the men all looked towards Luo Nianxi.

Ren Yazi hesitated for a moment, then rolled his shrewd eyes and stretched out five fingers.

"Five taels of silver?"

Ren Yazi shook his head.

"The people in this cage are each fifty taels, but they are all death indentures. You are a one-time investment with a lifetime return."

The slogan is quite loud, but the price is a bit high.

Seeing that she was hesitating, Ren Yazi pointed to the person in another cage and introduced him:

"Those few are cheap. You can take them away for only five taels of silver. They are also death indentures."

Luo Nianxi looked at him in surprise.

“They are the same people, why are the prices so different?”

Ren Yazi pinched his chin with one hand with a smug look on his face and said slowly:

"These guys came from southern Xinjiang. They know Kung Fu. Didn't you see their skeletons are bigger than the local ones? I paid a high price when I got in, so the selling price is also high."

Southern Xinjiang?

It’s far away from Chang’an City…

"Okay, I'll keep these four people. I need a few more girls. Do you have any suitable ones?"

"Girl, do you want expensive or cheap?"

"Where is the difference between noble and humble?"
