Did the eldest daughter ascend the throne today?

Mr. Bai, the richest man in Jiangnan, is nearly fifty years old. He has a big belly, sparse hair, a ruddy face, and ten rings on his hands. He looks very wealthy.

At this moment, he stood in front of Ning Zhiwei with great respect and bowed deeply, "Meet the Princess of Jingning County, and wish you the best."

Ning Zhiwei waved her hand, "Get up."

Mr. Bai did not dare to look directly at her face, and looked down, "I have heard of the great name of Princess Jingning for a long time. Seeing her today, it is true that her reputation is well-deserved. I finally know what a daughter of a general is, what a daughter of heaven is, and what an imperial lady is. She is noble, dignified, and elegant..."

He said a lot of nice things and flattered Ning Zhiwei, which made Ning Zhiwei smile.

Lin Jingshu on the side became more and more angry as she watched, and interrupted impatiently, "Okay, stop talking about these useless things, and get down to business."

Interrupting someone when they are speaking is a very rude thing in itself, but she took the initiative.

Mr. Bai looked over and raised his eyebrows slightly, "What is this?"

He recognized Lin Jingshu at a glance. She was the most beautiful and talented woman in the world, and her previous marriage-seeking convention was known to the whole world.

In fact, he had met Lin Jingshu five years ago. At that time, she had not yet reached the age of marriage, but she had already grown into a graceful and elegant lady, like a peony bud about to bloom.

At that time, she was a noble lady from a distinguished family, high up in the sky, and he could only watch her from a distance.

It is beautiful, but it also has a kind of clear stupidity, and one thinks oneself to be extremely smart.

Ning Zhiwei pointed at Lin Jingshu and introduced her with a smile, "The Crown Prince's concubine, Lin Jingshu."

"So you are a distinguished guest." Although Mr. Bai said this, he bowed hastily without much respect.

Comparing the two, Lin Jingshu felt humiliated and glared angrily, "How dare you."

You have no name or status, and I only pay respect to you because you are the prince's man. What is there to find fault with?

Moreover, it was clear that Mr. Bai had taken sides.

Ning Zhiwei gave her a strange look, "Why are you so excited? I remember that Lin Taiyuan intended to give you to Master Bai, right?"

Yes, she was sent to someone else's house like a toy. Whether she was a concubine or a serving concubine depended entirely on the other person's mood.

Lin Jingshu was caught off guard by her dark history and became angry and said, "Shut up."

Ning Zhiwei liked to see her defenses broken, "Master Bai, don't be afraid, she is just a concubine and can't cause any trouble. I am here for you."

Mr. Bai smiled and bowed, "Thank you, Princess Jingning."

"I heard that your Phoenix Tower is for sale, so I asked for help from my connections and rushed over here. Please name a price, County Lady."

"Well..." Ning Zhiwei pondered for a moment.

Lin Jingshu became anxious when she heard this, and didn't care about being angry, "You are late, Phoenix Tower already belongs to our Prince's Mansion."

Mr. Bai ignored her and just looked at Ning Zhiwei. Ning Zhiwei tapped the table lightly, again and again, making Lin Jingshu panic. She always felt that things were out of control.

"Six hundred and sixty thousand." This is Ning Zhiwei's offer. Can you return it?

Mr. Bai hesitated for a moment, "This..."

"Anyone who dares to buy the Phoenix Tower is against our Prince's Mansion. Mr. Bai, you should consider the consequences of offending the Prince."

Ning Zhiwei was annoyed, "Are you trying to force a sale? Don't forget, this is my territory. Believe it or not, I will not let you walk out of this door."

The faces of the people in the Prince's Mansion changed. This guy could do anything.

Mr. Bai suddenly spoke up, "I'll make it an even number, 700,000."

Ning Zhiwei: ...I've never seen anyone talk business this way, "Are you sure?"

"Yes, absolutely."

Ning Zhiwei said happily, "Okay, I'll sell it to you. Come on, bring some paper and pen."

Lin Jingshu threatened coldly, "Mr. Bai, aren't you afraid of offending the prince?"

Mr. Bai shuddered and said, "I am afraid, but I am determined to get Phoenix Tower."

What kind of logic is this? Lin Jingshu’s CPU is almost burned out.

She thought she was a time traveler and looked down on these backward ancient people, always holding a condescending and arrogant attitude.

The crystallization of thousands of years of wisdom is enough to defeat these ancients.

But after being beaten by Ning Zhiwei and falling into the dust, she discovered that the ancients also had their own wisdom, and these carefully trained children of noble families were really not stupid.

Why does she, a modern college student with mediocre grades, think she can beat these people?

She looked behind her at an extremely well-maintained old lady and silently asked for help.

"Princess Jingning, I am Nanny Deng from the Prince's Mansion. I want to advise you, Princess Jingning, to leave a way out for everything so that we can meet again in the future."

She was the prince's wet nurse and was deeply trusted by the prince.

"I don't want to see him at all." How could Ning Zhiwei be afraid of a prince who died early? She waved her hand and said, "It's okay, you can go now. Don't interfere with my business."

Madam Deng couldn't help but ask, "Master Bai, why do you insist on buying Phoenix Tower?"

Mr. Bai looked conflicted, not wanting to answer, but because of the power of the Crown Prince's Mansion, he had to say, "The Feng Shui of Phoenix Tower is excellent, it can store wind, gather energy and bring in wealth, and a very noble person can be born in the family."

No one expected that this was the reason why he was willing to offend the Prince's Mansion in order to buy the Phoenix Tower.

Ning Zhi smiled and said, "That's wrong. I don't see Lin Jingshu becoming a noble person."

Mr. Bai said without hesitation, "That's because she has a bad fate."

As soon as I finished speaking, I regretted it, "That's not what I meant, I meant..."

"Puchi." Ning Zhi burst out with a smile.

Lin Jingshu's face turned dark and she was shaking with anger. Even a businessman dared to pull her down and not take her seriously.

She wanted to tear Mr. Bai to pieces, "Aren't you afraid that you may live to buy it, but not to enjoy it?"

"Don't be afraid." Mr. Bai's eyes swept towards the door, where there were two Jinyiwei.

Everyone followed his gaze and looked over. Nanny Deng was shocked. Is this Xie Tongcheng? Who doesn't know that he is the confidant of Xiao Linfeng, the commander of the Jinyiwei?

He appeared here, could it be that the person behind Mr. Bai was Lord Xiao? This was tricky, he couldn't afford to offend that person, even the prince had to politely call him Lord Xiao when he saw him.

Lin Jingshu also understood this, and a chill rose on her back, "Madame Deng, how do you think we should deal with this?"

Madam Deng thought about it and decided to go back and ask for instructions. "Princess Jingning, please give us an hour, just for the sake of the royal family."

"Okay, just one hour."

Xie Tongcheng, who was standing at the door, looked at Princess Jingning who was drinking tea calmly. He had to admit that she had calculated everything and everyone was fooled by her, including the prince.

An hour later, Nanny Deng came back, followed by a group of people carrying heavy loads.

"Jingning County Lady, here are 100,000 taels of silver notes, 100,000 taels of silver, 20,000 taels of gold, a hot spring villa, and 100,000 acres of fine farmland in the south of the Yangtze River. I want to exchange them all for the Phoenix Tower. What do you think?"

Ning Zhiwei calculated, "This is only about 500,000 yuan."

Lin Jingshu couldn't help it, "This is the price you quoted before."

"It's different now. The highest bidder wins." Ning Zhiwei rolled her eyes, "But if the prince agrees to my two conditions, I will sell it to him."

Aunt Deng didn't dare to look down on her. "You say."

Ning Zhiwei hesitated for a moment, "First, he promised that he would never harm the Ning family."

Everyone in the Prince's Mansion was smiling happily, but Ning Zhiwei was tough on the outside, perhaps fearing the reckoning in the future.

Nanny Deng thought of the prince's order to take over the Phoenix Tower at all costs. Although she didn't know why the prince insisted on doing so, in her opinion, the Phoenix Tower was not worth the price.

"I agree on behalf of the prince."

"It has to be written down and stamped with his personal seal."

"Row."

Ning Zhiwei raised a strange arc at the corner of her mouth, "Second, I want the prince to marry Lin Jingshu."

Everyone was shocked. What? Did you hear that right?

Lin Jingshu was even more shocked and suspected that there was something wrong with her ears.
