After being rejected, he emptied the mansion and went into exile

"Three princes..."

Less than an hour later, Shen Jinyao ran back.

The third prince was already losing patience, as he thought Shen Jinyao really wanted to do something here.

He even felt a little regretful, wondering if he had trusted Shen Jinyao too easily.

He also remembered what Xiang Hongxuan had said to him.

What he meant was that he was worried that Shen Jinyao had other intentions towards him.

At first he didn't believe it, but just now he was thinking, if Shen Jinyao really wanted to use his identity to do something sacrificial...

"Why have you been gone so long?"

Shen Jinyao looked at the Third Prince and felt a little uncomfortable, wondering what he was thinking.

But she was gone for quite a while.

She came at the right time and was gone for less than an hour.

"It's pitch black, I have to find the right place. Third Prince, you may not know that nearby is the largest mining area in Yancheng."

The Third Prince: "Don't you know it? Where is the mining place you mentioned?"

"It's right around here. I was abused here before. Not only were there people from the Western Regions, but also the Red Flame Gang. I heard that people from the government were also involved."

The third prince's expression grew uglier the more he listened.

The third prince took note of this matter and now was not the time to solve this problem.

"Miss Shen, have you found the mine?"

Shen Jinyao nodded.

She deliberately stayed in the space for a while.

I took a nice bath and had a big meal, and when the time was almost up, I found an inconspicuous place to move the mine out.

If the mine is found quickly, the Third Prince will become suspicious again.

Shen Jinyao led the way in front, and they walked further and further away.

"This is it."

Shen Jinyao pointed to the dark area in front and said.

The third prince widened his eyes.

He thought the mine Shen Jinyao was talking about was a hillside.

He didn't expect that it was ore that had already been mined.

Shen Jinyao looked at the third prince's reaction and knew that this deal was right.

The third prince's eyes were filled with ambition in the darkness.

Shen Jinyao even felt that the Third Prince had probably already thought of the moment when he would unify the world.

Shen Jinyao: "Third Prince, are you satisfied?"

The Third Prince didn't look at Shen Jinyao, but asked in a very light tone: "I didn't know that the girl of the Shen family had such great abilities."

"Tell me, what do you want?"

Shen Jinyao: "The Third Prince should know this. I only want money and the safety of the Shen family."

The weather is still a bit cold now, and there is a slight breeze around, but it is a bit biting.

The Third Prince: "Miss Shen wants too much. The lives of the Shen family are under everyone's scrutiny."

This is also what Shen Jinyao can't understand.

"Third Prince, why? Hasn't the Shen family been exiled to Quzhou?"

Why are the emperor, the second prince, and people from other races keeping a close eye on the Shen family?

Is it just because of that list?

The Third Prince said lightly, "The Shen family... there has always been a legend about the Shen family..."

Shen Jinyao: "What legend?"

The Third Prince looked at Shen Jinyao seriously and asked instead of answering, "Miss Shen, this matter has nothing to do with our transaction."

"Money, you name the amount. As for the lives of the Shen family, I can only say that my people will not take action."

Originally, Shen Jinyao didn't think she could get any information out of the question, but it turned out that the Shen family had a legend that she had never known about?

Shen Jinyao took a step back and said, "What if the Shen family is used by the Third Prince? The Third Prince can always protect the lives of his own people, right?"

The third prince touched the jade ring on his hand.

"Can you be the master of the Shen family?"

Shen Jinyao straightened her chest and said, "I represent the Shen family. As long as the Third Prince can agree to my request..."

Shen Jinyao knelt in front of the third prince as she spoke.

"Please, Third Prince, agree to Jin Yao's request."

The third prince stared at Shen Jinyao for a long time.

Just when Shen Jinyao felt that the secret guards around her were getting closer and closer to her, she finally heard the voice of the third prince.

"Haha, Miss Shen is really a smart person."

"If it weren't for this mine, this prince would have died long ago if he had been threatened like this."

Not to mention his wolfish ambitions and future plots, even if he was threatened by a woman like this, he would not let her go easily.

but……

The Shen family is indeed still useful.

Shen Jinyao is more useful.

Nothing more...

Shen Jinyao naturally knew that serving the emperor was like serving a tiger. Although the Third Prince seemed to be a person with a good temper...

But anyone who can snatch a position from his father must be cruel.

Shen Jinyao could only quickly choose a way out for the Shen family in this turbulent political situation.

It’s the third prince.

This mine was just her way of testing the waters.

Shen Jinyao whispered, "Thank you for your magnanimity, Third Prince. If you need Jinyao in the future, please let me know."

The third prince looked down at Shen Jinyao who was kneeling on the ground.

He couldn't help but feel better.

"Besides doing business, what else can Miss Shen do?"

Shen Jinyao sneered, "The Third Prince may not know that Jinyao can do what men can do."

The third prince laughed when he heard this.

"Haha, oh? Miss Shen is really shameless. For example?"

Shen Jinyao: "For example, when it comes to fighting in battle, Jinyao believes he's no worse than General Xiang."

The third prince didn't expect Shen Jinyao to be so arrogant.

But Shen Jinyao's attitude did please him.

"Okay, then I'll let you go into battle and kill the enemy."

"It was so dark that I didn't even notice that Miss Shen was kneeling the whole time. Please get up quickly. You are the benefactor of my Third Prince."

Shen Jinyao lowered her head and pulled the corners of her mouth.

She was indeed right.

The third prince is indeed a beast lurking in the darkness.

Her previous statement that she wanted to surrender to the Third Prince was not fully trusted by the Third Prince.

Now she first gave the mine to the Third Prince, and then acted humble in front of him, so that the Third Prince would really believe her.

Compared to this, Xiang Hongxuan is really simpler.

"In that case, Jin Yao will not disturb the Third Prince."

After all, it’s such a big mine, the Third Prince has to think carefully about how to deal with it.

The third prince looked at Shen Jinyao with admiration.

He even thought that Shen Jinyao was a wonderful person.

She is flexible and even more capable than men.

He was even feeling lucky that Shen Jinyao and Xiang Hongxuan's marriage fell through.

Otherwise, with Xiang Hongxuan's strength and Shen Jinyao's ability, Xiang Hongxuan would be even more powerful.

Shen Jinyao returned to the army.

I didn't expect that Xiang Hongxuan was actually waiting for Shen Jinyao.

"Heh, I didn't expect Miss Shen to come back alive."

Shen Jinyao: "What did General Xiang say?"

Xiang Hongxuan looked at Shen Jinyao and said nothing in the end.

The next day, the third prince sent a letter saying that he wanted to write a letter to the emperor and needed to stay in Yanzhou for some time.

The reason was that the trace of the second prince was discovered.
