The princess only wants to get rich and support her family

It was as if a huge hole had been chiseled out in Hu Luanfei's heart by the Axe of Creation. Her blood was surging, and her whole body turned red in an instant.

But my mind suddenly went blank, and only those words kept echoing in my ears.

She opened her mouth, instinctively a little shy, "I want to know your way..."

Qi Siliao suddenly interrupted her for some reason, "There's no need to talk about this topic anymore."

The words were on the tip of her tongue, but were ruthlessly blocked by him. In her heart, the big hole that was opened by the Axe of Creation seemed to be stuffed with several carts of cotton, almost killing her.

She pursed her lips and began to think wildly.

Qi Siliao didn't understand women's hearts, and for no apparent reason he reached out and twisted her ear.

The burning pain immediately focused her thoughts and helped her regain her original temperament.

"You bastard, you are sick!" She slapped his arm reflexively and scolded him angrily, "Men are strong, twisting someone's ears hurts."

He glanced at her and gently stroked her twisted red little ear without saying a word.

"Fuck your hypocrisy!"

Qi Si Liao couldn't help but laugh, "You are still interesting this way."

"It's interesting. I paid for it with pain."

She glared at him angrily, her eyes bright even though they were so close to him.

Everything around them was so quiet that they could even hear each other's heartbeats clearly. He stood there in silence, with a slight pursed smile on his lips. His charming figure was perfect and made her heart beat continuously.

At this moment, Jiang Shi's voice came from outside, "Master, sister-in-law, the warehouse has been cleaned."

Qi Siliao took her hand and said, "Let's go to the warehouse."

"Why are you going to the warehouse for no reason?"

"Pick some gifts and bring them to the palace tomorrow."

Tsk, how could I forget about this.

Hu Luanfei was extremely resistant and refused to move no matter what.

Fortunately, Qi Siliao was very strong and he grabbed her hand and dragged her over.

Only after entering the warehouse did I realize how poor Prince Zhan's Mansion was. Not to mention comparing it with the emperor's warehouse, just taking the officials who were a few levels lower than him as an example, the treasures in the warehouse were probably much more than those in Prince Zhan's Mansion.

Hu Luanfei reluctantly hid aside, leaving the qualification of selection to him...

However, he couldn't pick out anything good. He touched his chin and frowned, looking around his own storehouse. He sighed and said, "Luan Fei, go to the antique shop and pick one."

"I reject!"

Qi Si Liao touched her head and said in a casual tone: "Don't make a fuss, that's a birthday gift for the emperor."

"Humph, he is the emperor, so he has nothing valuable. But our palace has nothing but poverty."

He asked teasingly, "Aren't you afraid that he will take this opportunity to catch me for this disrespect?"

Hu Luanfei remained silent and just stood there for a while before reluctantly going out under his scrutinizing gaze. However, he ran back in a short time and locked himself in the room.

Inside the palace, several people looked at each other in confusion, and then, they were suddenly shocked.

Hu Luanfei took out a big knife in the house, which was very familiar to everyone.

Before the late emperor passed away, in order to congratulate Qi Siliao on his coming of age, he gave him this broadsword and added a message: Seeing the sword is like seeing the person. Whoever gets this sword does not have to kneel before any king.

Qi Siliao was used to using the sword, so the broadsword was useless to him, so he put it in the house as a decoration. However, he never expected that Hu Luanfei would take it away today and rush out of the house in a hurry.

She held the knife in one hand and lifted her skirt with the other, took a deep breath, aimed at the direction of the nearby corner, and rushed towards there in two steps at a time.

The footsteps faded away until they could no longer be heard.

The faces of the few people in the mansion who had just reacted turned pale.

Jiang Shi was the first to shout, "Oh no, my lord, the princess is leaving with a knife."

"Go stop her!"

What happened to that damn girl?!

Qi Simiao was confused and followed a few people out of the palace. After walking a few steps, he saw a lot of people gathered around the antique shop on the corner.

"Old man, it's just a coral ornament, how dare you sell it for so much?"

The owner of the antique shop looked as pale as a bitter gourd, and begged, "Madam, this is a South China Sea coral, which only grows one inch in fifty years. It is precious and rare, and it is not a small price to charge."

The poor woman, totally ignoring the boss's fear, put the knife on his neck and threatened angrily: "If you give me any less, I will cut your neck with this big knife!"

"My queen, you can't force me to lower the price just because you are the princess. The transaction is a matter of mutual consent. If you think it is too expensive, you can look at other options..."

"This is what I want, if you surrender again!"

"Three hundred gold..."

The knife was closer to the flesh, Hu Luanfei narrowed his eyes slightly and continued to force, "Surrender again!"

"Two hundred and fifty..."

"You are just an idiot, your whole family is an idiot, lower your price!"

The boss was in tears and felt for the first time how difficult it was to be a human being.

Maybe the poor antique shop owner was lucky. Qi Si Liao finally walked into the shop like a god and snatched back the sword, and softly scolded him, "Nonsense!"

Hu Luanfei suddenly became bolder and snorted, "If my family wasn't so poor, do you think I would be willing to turn into a bandit and rob others?"

Who would believe this? I don’t know who has made a lot of money during this period.

But no one said anything, after all, no one wanted to cause trouble.

When the shopkeeper saw Qi Siliao coming, he wiped away his bitter tears and trembled as he was about to kneel down. "My Lord, I spent a lot of effort to preserve this coral. The price cannot be lowered any further. If you need a gift, you can choose something else. The price is negotiable."

Qi Siliao glanced at the coral and found that its quality was indeed high-quality. The asking price of three hundred gold was considered low. If it was any lower, it would really be worthless.

He helped the boss up, brushed off the dust on him, and asked, "Boss, can I buy this coral on credit?"

The shopkeeper paused, and suddenly felt embarrassed, "Your Majesty, we don't sell on credit for small businesses..."

For fear of being punished, his voice was as soft as a mosquito's buzz, but it was still heard by those close to him.

Everyone was whispering.

Some said: "Even if they are willing to give you credit, who would dare to go to the Zhan Palace to ask for the debt?"

"Of course not. If they turn hostile and charge me with disrespect, it would be fine if the shopkeeper loses money, but if he loses his life, it would be a huge loss."

"Who can I blame for this? It's fate. We are just ordinary people."

"I think it's the shopkeeper's fault for not checking the almanac when opening the shop, and for running into the War King and his wife who came to cause trouble."

Some even said that it was because the palace maids in front of the emperor were not good for their husbands, and whoever married them would suffer misfortune, which brought bad luck to Prince Zhan's palace.

After much talk, in the end the finger was pointed at her, as if she were an unforgivable villain, and everyone in Prince Zhan's mansion was criticized by everyone.

Finally, the shopkeeper came over and said, "Your Highness, Princess, let's get this out of the way. If today's rumors spread to the palace, your reputation will be ruined and the emperor will lose face. What will happen if he confiscates my house?"
