As soon as she opened her eyes, she was forcibly carried back to the East Palace by the paranoid pri

He Yue felt it was very mysterious. The aesthetic phantom had a real foothold. Every move of the man in front of her made He Yue feel pleasing to the eye.

She despised herself in her heart, He Yue, He Yue, when it comes to a matter of money, you dare to have a crooked mind and think of nonsense. You are still unfaithful to the God of Wealth!

She opened the handkerchief and carefully placed it on the four-immortal table near them. She folded her hands on her knees and raised her head timidly, "Mr. He, do you think this glass bracelet suits your taste?"

"This is what my mother left me before she died. It has been passed down in my family. If I hadn't been left with no way out, I would have sold it." He Yue sighed again, her eyes almost misty. She tilted her head and raised her hand to press lightly on her chest. Her profile seemed to be shrouded in sorrow, and her long eyelashes trembled. "It's also because I'm useless and don't have a way to make a living for the time being."

If you spend half a day in any pawnshop, you will hear similar sentences at least three times. He Yue only has the advantage of good looks to make people feel pity for her.

But Ning Rushong in front of her couldn't help but feel pity for her even though he knew she was lying. If he wasn't afraid of counterproductive effects, he would have kept He Yue by his side long ago so that she wouldn't have to suffer any hardship.

Ning Rushong stretched out his hand and took the glass bracelet in his hand. His cold white and slender fingers contrasted with the blue glass beads, and he twisted it around.

Colored glass has always been a rare item among the people, not to mention that this glass bracelet is of superior quality and appearance. Rich and respectable people are willing to pay more than a thousand taels to buy it.

There was a dark color in his lowered eyes. Even so, if he went to the pawnshop in the county, there was no telling how many layers of deception the money would be subjected to.

In order to buy low and sell high in order to lower the price, Ma Da Niang used her favor to bribe the local little devils in order to have a legitimate household registration document. First, the village headman, then the clerk in the government office, all of them needed money to bribe them.

So in her previous life, Yueyue really only had a small country house with a shop in the front and people living in the backyard. Only by becoming more aggressive could she live a more comfortable life.

"Don't worry, Miss He. It suits my taste very well." Ning Rusong raised his eyes and looked at her. His eyes were like the Milky Way under the moon, rippling with tenderness. "I am willing to pay five thousand taels. I wonder if Miss He is willing to give it up?"

He Yue's acting skills were not as superb as when she met Ning Rushong in her previous life. She was startled for a moment, and the disappointment on her face disappeared in an instant. She looked at him straight, her willow-leaf eyes round and full of joy.

She pursed her lips, almost hallucinating the touching sound of gold ingots falling into her purse. If it was true, her second half of life would be settled!

What do you mean by giving it up? It's obvious that the treasure has a spirit and it will choose its owner!

"I am willing, I am willing." He Yue didn't dare to pretend to be reluctant anymore, for fear that the five thousand taels that were about to be in her hands would fly away. "You can tell at first glance that you have a connection with it. I wonder if it is real silver or banknotes?"

Cash or card?

Ning Rusong twirled the beads between his fingers and looked at her with a smile. His heart was warmed. It had been a long time since he saw Yueyue so lively. "Give Miss He the banknote. It's easy to carry with you."

"Guard Zhang, give Miss He five thousand taels of silver." He stopped what he was doing and put the bracelet on his wrist. The glass beads and the incense ash beads collided, making a crisp sound, which attracted He Yue's gaze. It should have looked complicated, but when it fell on his wrist, it only had an air of nobility.

He Yue asked herself, is this still her bracelet that cost 9.9 yuan with free shipping? No, it is worth 5,000 taels now, so it is reasonable to transform it into something more noble.

Guard Zhang walked into the room, knelt down to pay his respects, then stood up and presented five silver notes with a face value of one thousand taels to He Yue. At this moment, Guard Zhang missed Xiao Guanzi and his apprentice Xiao Ye very much, as this was their job!

He Yue took the banknote, her heart beating wildly. She looked at it again and again, then carefully put it into her sleeves, with one thousand taels in her left hand and four thousand taels in her right hand.

Ning Rusong spoke at the right time, "I have also heard a little bit about it. It is not easy for Miss He to live alone in Lijia Village."

"The women in the village are very gossipy, especially Madam Ma who came with you. I'm sure everyone knows why you came to the He Mansion. If others ask, you can lower the amount of money. One thousand taels is fine, or five hundred taels is fine. My servants are very tight-lipped and won't say anything."

He Yue stood up gratefully and bowed to Ning Rushong. Although the gesture was a little awkward, it didn't seem awkward. "Mr. He is really the best and kindest person I have met recently!"

His words were sincere and without any falsehood, and her liking for Ning Rushong suddenly increased.

Guard Zhang, who was standing at one side of the room, was stunned, and felt sad that one day the word "good man" could be used to describe His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.

Miss He! The prince is not obsessed with his opponent, but with you. He is like a madman, making all kinds of plans to get from Yuncheng to this remote village in Min County.

The deal was done, so He Yue naturally had no reason to stay and was led out by the maid in front.

Ning Rushong stood in front of the door, his figure stern, looking in the direction where He Yue left. If He Yue was still there, she would probably immediately retract her initial thoughts about him. Without the warmth in front of her, his silent look had an air of majesty that silenced people.

The prince had very little affection, and he presented it all to He Yue.

Guard Zhang leaned forward and asked him respectfully, "Your Highness, why don't you make yourself clear and keep Miss He here?"

Why go through so many twists and turns? Why let her go after just one meeting? Why discard so many rules? Guard Zhang was extremely puzzled. This was totally unlike the Crown Prince's methods.

The prince did not look back at him, his voice was very light, "A good start is better than any amount of making up later. If there is hatred first, love will rot at the root and will not bear fruit. You can only deceive yourself and get by without any hesitation."

Guard Zhang lowered his head and said nothing more. He had a feeling that the Crown Prince was not speaking to him and he had no right to reply. Since when did the Crown Prince start to care about love?

A secret guard appeared silently in the room and knelt behind the prince. "Your Highness, the funeral of the head of the Duan family has ended. The last letter he left behind has been handed to Your Majesty by the Duan family. I didn't intercept it. Please punish me, Your Highness!"

The prince was not surprised. This was because three years later, the head of the Duan family had just passed away, and the power he held had not yet begun to dissipate.

The previous painting and letter were obtained because the head of the Duan family passed away suddenly, causing chaos in the Duan family, and the secret guards took the opportunity to replace them with blank ones.

He turned around and walked past the secret guards, his voice nonchalant, "Nothing, find an opportunity to exchange the painting and letter back to the Duan family, and also take back the people planted in the Duan family."

Ning Rushong's days of panic disappeared in an instant when he saw He Yue clearly. He no longer needed to look for other people's thoughts to confirm her existence, nor did he want to sow irreversible disaster between him and He Yue.

Ning Rushong thought, if God favors the head of the Duan family, He Yue would know his infatuation and sorrow, but his luck is really bad, could it be that the world can only accommodate one outsider?
