My Lord, the princess doesn't want you anymore.

Chapter 96 The Princess Can’t Afford to Eat

Back at the Happy Casino, Mei Xueer lay over the table writing prescriptions for Shi Laosan's wife and children.

Do a rough calculation after finishing writing.

Oh my god, it will cost a lot of money.

I was so busy pretending to be a good person that I forgot that I am now a pauper.

"A——" she called out.

Wen Jia jumped in happily.

Mei Xueer: "I just suddenly remembered something. Didn't I ask you to go to the Dog King to collect the money for the medicine last time? It seems that there is no follow-up..."

Wen Jia's body froze as he was jumping around. "Um, Princess..."

He was still thinking about asking the princess for monthly allowance. He knew that the princess was also poor, but the five brothers were really broke and had even used up their savings in recent days.

Little did he know that before he opened his mouth, the princess started talking about the difficult matter of medicine money from last time.

"Princess, I was actually thinking about..." Wen Jia gritted his teeth and prepared to speak. Even if he could just give a few copper coins first as a last resort, it would be acceptable.

But before he could get to the point, Mei Xueer interrupted him, "Jia, you see, my expenses are quite high all day long, and I have to support you guys, so I'm really short of money. How about you lend me some money first, for emergency?"

Wen Jia: "...Ah, Princess, I didn't..."

"If you are in trouble, don't we still have a few brothers? Otherwise, you can ask them for me and see if they can each contribute a little. After all, we can't go hungry, right? This is called working together to overcome difficulties!"

Wen Jia: ...Ah, goose, goose...I shouldn’t be here, I should be outside!

Nan Xing, who was standing by, couldn't bear to watch it any longer and said weakly, "Miss, how about we go back to the Xiangfu and live off our parents?"

Mei Xueer's mouth twitched. Humph, even if I have to go back, I can't go back in such a miserable state! In my Mei Xueer's dictionary, there is no such word as "living off parents".

Her hopeful eyes fell on Wen Jia again: "Is what I just said okay?"

Wen Jia said hurriedly: "Princess, I actually have a better idea. Didn't we send Zhu'er, who was beside the dog prince, to the prince today? That Zhu'er knows a lot about the deposed prince, and the prince will definitely be able to find out something. Shouldn't he give us some reward?"

Mei Xueer's eyes lit up: "Jia, you are so smart. Okay, then you'll take the trouble to make the trip? By the way, bring back my dowry for me... Oh, remember to bring back the bed as well. I like that bed very much, it's very comfortable to sleep on... Also, bring back all the treasures on the bed... And..."

"Princess, I, I am a secret guard." Wen Jia didn't want to talk about the money at all, the psychological shadow was too great. Not to mention that he had to do such a shameful thing as moving the bed.

"Secret guard?" Mei Xueer sneered, "I don't think your secret guard is very useful. You are not as fast as Nanxing throwing pig intestines, and you are not as fast as that Mr. Li."

Wen Jia wanted to say something, but Mei Xueer raised her hand to stop him and continued, "Well, regardless of Mr. Li or Mr. Wang, I think it's not appropriate for you to be a secret guard... Be good and go to the palace. If you don't go, we'll all starve to death."

Hearing this, Wen Bing, who was hiding outside the door and eavesdropping, smiled like a flower.

Looks like he deserves a beating.

So, when Wen Jia came out, he punched him.

"It was the princess who said that you were not suitable to be a secret guard, not me." Wen Bing covered his face, feeling very aggrieved, "The princess didn't say that I was not suitable, you are not as good as me...ah...it comes again, it hurts..."

"Move all the things to the Prime Minister's Mansion... Don't forget the bed and those treasures..." Mei Xueer's repeated instructions came from behind.

Prince Jing's Mansion.

Zhuang Xiang looked at Wen Jia as if he were an idiot, "Dowry?"

Wen Jia was extremely ashamed and nodded heavily. Then, he dared not look up again.

"Do you need more money?" Zhuang Xiang asked again.

Wen Jia nodded again in shame.

I can't afford to lose this person.

God knows how much courage he mustered to speak to Zhuang Xiang about this difficult matter about money.

"Bed?" Zhuang Xiang asked three questions in a row.

Wen Jia turned around and wanted to leave. This mission could not be completed.

What kind of life is this following Princess Jing? !

I don’t think about it anymore, I just cry when I think about it too much.

However, the secret guard's duty is to obey. Even if it is embarrassing, he still has to take some money back for emergency.

"Everything in Qingfengyuan?" Zhuang Xiang asked again in disbelief.

Wen Jia's head dropped further, until it rested against his chest. He nodded again and added, "We can barely afford to eat."

Finally, he reacted and shook his head quickly: "No, it's not like that, it's a transaction, exchanging the pearl for silver. The princess said that she definitely didn't ask the prince for silver. This is a transaction."

Zhuang Xiang's mouth twitched, "Ah, how could this happen? I'll go find the prince right now, you wait."

Then, Cui Hongjing looked at Zhuang Xiang as if he were an idiot. "How could the princess have no money? Why didn't you remind me when you gave her the divorce letter? You actually made it so that my princess couldn't even afford to eat outside?"

After Zhuang Xiang was kicked by his own prince, he reminded him again, "Prince, she is no longer the Princess of Jing. You have already divorced."

Cui Hongjing took a breath and lowered his voice, "You, don't tell me that you don't know what the divorce letter is about?"

"Of course I know that the prince is thinking about the princess." Zhuang Xiang slapped his mouth, "It's all my fault for being so mean."

"What are you still standing here for? Go get the banknotes for the princess!"

"Take, how much?"

Cui Hongjing kicked him and said, "Are you still asking me how much I should take? The princess can barely afford to eat, how much do you think I should take?"

"I understand." Zhuang Xiang turned around and ran, fearing that he would be kicked in the butt again.

"return!"

Zhuang Xiang quickly turned around.

Cui Hongjing looked a little unnatural. "Last time, didn't you bring back a few boxes of jewelry from Guose Tianxiang? Later, the princess left in anger, and I didn't have a chance to give it to her. I'll send them all over this time."

"I thought the prince had forgotten about those boxes." Zhuang Xiang said as he slipped away, afraid of hurting his butt.

So, after Wen Jia risked his reputation to go to Prince Jing's Mansion, Mei Xueer became a nouveau riche.

Except for the 100,000 taels of silver, Wen Jia moved the rest back to her residence, including the big bed.

Mei Xueer didn't feel ashamed at all.

Although the Dog Prince is a dog, his money is very cute.

Besides, this was the debt owed by the Dog Prince.

Her eyes sparkled as she fumbled with the banknotes until the writing on them was almost blurred. Then she said, "Jia, you've made it! I don't think you can be a secret guard, but you're good at this kind of thing. I'll look for you next time!"

Wen Jia: Ahhh, goose, goose, goose…

Seeing the young lady's eyes shining, Nan Xing asked tentatively, "Miss, we now have a full 100,000 taels of silver, and there are many good things in the prime minister's mansion, so should we still do business with that shopkeeper Gu?"

"Why not?" Mei Xueer rolled her eyes at her. "The focus of the business is not money, but to let the people of Dazhen understand what it means to be a clean stream in the literary and artistic world - of course, making money is also important. Do you understand?"

Nanxing didn't understand what her young lady was saying, but she still nodded blindly and firmly, "Miss, I'm not stupid. I understand!"

"Nanxing, pack up. I will discuss this business with Manager Gu tonight. We will return to the Prime Minister's Mansion tomorrow. Since we have already divorced, I will no longer worry about bringing any trouble to the Prime Minister's Mansion."

Nanxing smiled happily all of a sudden. Anyway, the lady had divorced now, so it was not a good idea for him to keep living in the casino. It would not look good if it got out.

That night, after seeing Gu Jia off, Mei Xueer rested her head on the one hundred thousand taels of silver note, feeling so happy!

The medicines used for Lord Dog are worth no more than two hundred taels of silver. Apart from the things that originally belonged to her, could it be that the other ninety-nine thousand eight hundred taels and the boxes mentioned by Wen Jia were all because of that pearl? Haha, I didn't realize that this pearl is quite valuable. Next time, no matter what cats and dogs you catch, send them to Lord Dog. If you send more times, I will be rich.

Hahahaha...this dog prince is really a rich but stupid person!

Wen Jia had sent a message earlier, saying that Wen Yi and Wen Wu had found Wen Ding and that he was still alive. Tomorrow, the three of them would be able to return to Beijing.

It's a wonderful day when people feel happy.

At this moment, she couldn't help but happily open the tablet in front of her to check her savings.

[Current accumulated points are 258 points.]

After several months of hard work, I unlocked Baidu and Space, and purchased a month's internet package, and I actually still had a surplus.

If you earn a little more, you can unlock the next circle. If the next circle is really from Taobao, that would be great!

Mei Xueer, you have to work hard - struggle -

She lay on the bed and checked the names of everyone around her one by one, but found no new information.

But I found that Baidu was also updating it at any time. For example, in the encyclopedia of the deposed prince, it was written that he was "on the run" and there was a wanted order attached.

She felt sick when she saw the online fugitive, so she quickly logged out and opened the webpage again, ready to play some online Candy Crush Saga.

But as soon as I opened the page, the screen went black.

The system is out of power!

After cursing for a while, she fell asleep holding the banknotes.
