People in Jianghu have extraordinary physical strength, and their abilities are even far beyond the terrifying evil spirits.

In her entanglement with him, Ning Xue thought she had reached a dead end and her life was about to disappear in the endless darkness.

However, fate seemed to play cruel jokes on her one after another. Every time she was on the verge of death, she would miraculously turn things around.

This happened several times, and Ning Xue's body and mind suffered great torture. Finally, she could not bear the burden and fainted.

As the dawn light was about to penetrate the darkness, Ning Xue struggled to prop up her exhausted body, and slowly put on her clothes while enduring the pain in her body.

At this time, the mysterious man had already packed up and was standing calmly beside the bed, his eyes revealing an eager desire for the banknotes.

Ning Xue's face was as pale as paper, and her bloodless hands trembled as she fumbled in her bag. She finally took out the silver bills representing the transaction and handed them to the man.

Until this moment, Ning Xue still couldn't see the man's true face, and she gave her body to a stranger whose appearance she didn't even know.

When she thought of this, Ning Xue's heart was filled with endless sadness and desolation.

"Miss, the ten thousand taels have been secured. As for the conditions you mentioned, I will keep my promise and let the other party deeply understand your pain and helplessness at this moment!"

A sly smile appeared on the man's face. Before he finished speaking, he nimbly jumped out of the window and disappeared from Ning Xue's sight in an instant.

After dawn, Xiaoying woke up slowly from her sleep. When she saw Ning Xue sitting beside the bed with a dazed look on her face, she couldn't help feeling a little confused and quickly got up.

She really couldn't figure out what happened last night and why she slept so deeply, as if she had been drugged.

"Miss!" Sakura called softly.

Ning Xue suddenly turned her head and glared at Xiaoying fiercely. It was because of her momentary soft-heartedness that she ended up in such an irreversible situation. She felt that her life was completely ruined.

"I want to take a shower, go get some hot water!" Ning Xue's voice was cold and resolute.

Xiaoying was confused by Ning Xue's unhappy gaze. She wondered in her heart, was the lady blaming her for sleeping too soundly last night? Or did something earth-shattering happen last night?

Sakura went to the kitchen of the inn full of suspicion to look for hot water, but there was no ready-made hot water in the kitchen so early in the morning. She had no choice but to decide to boil water herself.

At the same time, on the other side, early in the morning, Yun Shang woke up from her sleep and her eyelids began to twitch uncontrollably again.

This made her recall the terrible experience of being kidnapped the last time her eyelids twitched. Her eyelids were twitching again this time. Could something bad be happening again?

Yun Shang turned her head with worry and looked at Shangguan Haoyu who was sitting quietly reading a book behind her. She asked in a faint voice, "My Lord, can you accompany me out today?"

"Hmm!" Shangguan Haoyu raised his head slightly and glanced at Yun Shang, wondering in his heart, could it be that she is annoyed by him following her around all the time?

"Where are you going today?" Shangguan Haoyu asked.

Yun Shang blinked her eyes and thought seriously about today's schedule. "I haven't been to the cloth shop for a long time. I have to go there to take a look." After all, the profit there is relatively small, and there are not many reconciliation matters, so she will only go there once in a long time.

Shangguan Haoyu nodded and said, "Let's have breakfast first! If there is nothing else important today, after inspecting the shops, we will go to the palace. Today is the seventh day after the death of Concubine Ning, so we will go through the formalities and then return."

Yun Shang nodded slightly, secretly sighing in her heart, the seventh day after Concubine Ning's death has arrived!

"Has Concubine Ning really passed away?" Yun Shang still finds it hard to believe this fact.

"Why do you ask this?" Shangguan Haoyu was a little puzzled by Yun Shang's question.

"I think that a smart woman, if she doesn't want to waste her time in the harem, will find ways to escape from the palace and live freely in the outside world, right?" Yun Shang murmured to herself.

"She is not as smart as you think." Shangguan Haoyu said, and then told Liu Meir to prepare dinner.

After they had breakfast, they went out together.

After arriving at the cloth shop, Yun Chang entered from the backyard. She first checked the raw materials used for dyeing and weaving the cloth, and then saw the yard full of cloth that had just been dyed and was being hung out to dry.

Yun Chang walked forward, picked up a corner of one of the cloths and examined it carefully. The cloth felt a little rough and hard, and the feel was very bad, and the color was not bright enough.

Yun Shang thought to herself that she had not been here for too long, and the people below had become so lazy that the quality of the cloth was getting worse and worse.

Because she was too focused on checking the quality of the cloth, Yun Shang didn't notice that someone was standing behind her.

It was not until she put down the cloth in her hand and turned around to leave that she suddenly realized it.

"Who are you?" Yun Shang widened her eyes and asked vigilantly.

I saw that the man had his face covered with a black cloth, leaving only his eyes and mouth exposed.

"Miss, are you Yun Shang?"

Yun Shang replied righteously, "No, who is Yun Shang?" But she was complaining in her heart, why is there another kidnapper! The two last time were idiots, so it was easy to deal with, but the one in front of her, with his malicious eyes, made her feel uncomfortable all over.

The masked man was stunned for a moment, then chuckled: "Miss, you are really interesting."

Yun Shang tried to stay calm, thinking that Shangguan Haoyu was just outside the backyard, so she shouldn't panic! She deliberately raised her voice and said, "You are such a weird person. You flirted with a decent girl in broad daylight, and you covered your face. What on earth do you want to do?"

The masked man seemed to see through her thoughts and sneered, "Miss, it's not a good idea for you to bring your weak husband into the yard! If something goes wrong, you will be a widow!"

Upon hearing this, Yun Chang spread her hands and shouted to the masked man behind her: "My husband, he said that I want to be a widow!"

Shangguan Haoyu stood there with a cold expression, staring at the masked man, and stretched out his hand to Yun Shang: "Come here!"

Yun Shang immediately strode behind Shangguan Haoyu.

The masked man just sneered the whole time and did not stop.

After Shangguan Haoyu held Yun Shang's hand, he turned his gaze to the masked man and asked, "Why are you looking for my wife?"

The masked man shrugged and said, "I accept money from others and help them get rid of their misfortunes!"

Yun Shang looked helpless and interrupted: "My Lord, isn't Concubine Ning gone? How come someone still wants to kill me!"

She learned from Shangguan Haoxuan's uncontrollable mouth that the last kidnapping was ordered by Concubine Ning.

Shangguan Haoyu was also very depressed. He thought Yunchang was safe in the capital.

At this time, Yun Shang asked curiously, "Well, how much silver did you receive?" She wanted to know how much her life was worth.

The masked man seemed to appreciate Shu Xin's temperament and replied, "Ten thousand taels!"

Yun Shang was so angry that she jumped up and down, shouting, "My life is so cheap? It's ok that the hunters in the mountains offer a low price, but you are a gangster!"

"I'll pay double, you..." Shangguan Haoyu quickly grabbed Yun Shang and said dissatisfiedly: "Am I so easy to bully?"
