Prince Rui, don't spoil your adopted daughter too much: she will eventually get married

He was pinned down before he could even make a move.

Qi Nuo was still unconvinced and struggled to stand up, saying rashly: "If you have the guts, fight me alone."

It is reasonable for this plot to match the character's reckless behavior and risking his life alone for money.

The leader came over, and Qi Nuo shouted at him angrily: "Don't be complacent, we still have a lot of people."

The leader simply glanced at the three of them and said, "Take them away."

When I saw this palace in the desert with my own eyes, I was really surprised. Although it was late at night, the village was brightly lit and torches were lit within a kilometer around the village.

Although it is not as grand as the palace in the imperial capital, it is not easy to build such a magnificent mansion in the desert.

The roof was made of the most expensive glazed tiles, the murals on the eaves were inlaid with gold, and the carpet on the floor was of the best quality in the Kingdom of Tianjin, stretching from the door to the main hall.

The throne above the main hall is silver, antique calligraphy and paintings are placed inside the hall, and the chairs below the hall are all made of the best golden nanmu wood.

This is not a bandit's den, it is clearly a place of learning and wealth.

Someone kicked Zhai Yun behind the knee and she fell heavily to her knees.

Qi Nuo was the same. Only Feng Chenyi stood there firmly no matter how the people behind him treated him.

After a long while, a burly, bearded man leisurely walked to the throne and sat down. He exuded a bandit-like aura and looked down at the unyielding Feng Chenyi. "From the looks of it, you only have mediocre martial arts skills. Your Hongxi Escort Agency is only capable of this, yet you dare to provoke the Thirteen Villages? You really don't know your place."

After entering the village, Feng Chenyi stopped pretending and glanced at him coldly, "Are you the local emperor of Shatu Village? I want to fight you one-on-one."

The local emperor listened to Feng Chenyi's words as if he had heard a joke, "You are quite arrogant, little boy."

You have to know that in a bandit village, the one who can become the boss is either extremely powerful or extremely smart, and can lead the brothers in the village to live a good life.

But this Shatu Village is not ordinary, and the leader of Shatu Village is even more extraordinary.

He was the one who founded Shatu Village. When it was first built, it was just an ordinary mud house.

With his bare hands and relying on his brute force, he once destroyed an entire mountain stronghold, established his prestige, and gained a group of brothers who were willing to go through thick and thin with him.

"The village chief's head is worth 10,000 gold in the Hongxi Escort Agency. Your head should be more valuable." As soon as Feng Chenyi said this, the emperor's face changed instantly.

"I am the leader of this village and own a million taels of gold and countless silver, but in your eyes, they are only worth ten thousand gold! You are so short-sighted!" The local tyrant angrily slammed his fist on the throne.

Feng Chenyi said coldly, "The boss is known as a local emperor. Your worth must be much more than that. If the boss dares, I want to make a bet with you."

When the local emperor heard what was said, he looked at Feng Chenyi with an inquiring look. In his eyes, Feng Chenyi was just a little kid whose hair had not even grown out yet, and he was only half the size of Feng Chenyi.

If I were challenged by such a kid and I didn't dare to fight back, what would my brothers in the gang think of me?

Where is my prestige?

The local tyrant clenched his fists, looking confident of victory, and asked, "What are you betting with me?"

"If I lose, the three of us will stay in the village and work like slaves for you." Feng Chenyi said firmly, looking at the local tyrant with an extremely firm look.

Those in the village looked at Feng Chenyi as if they were watching a joke, and they were all waiting to see him make a fool of himself.

Feng Chenyi continued coldly: "If you lose, I want 100,000 taels of silver."

When these words were spoken, everyone else in the village was shocked. Although one hundred thousand taels was nothing to Shatu Village, taking one hundred thousand taels in one breath was no different from robbery.

They have always been the ones who robbed others, and no one has ever dared to rob them.

No one can rob 100,000 taels in one go.

The local tyrant looked at Feng Chenyi with a wry smile on his face. If Feng Chenyi said he was challenging him, it was just arrogance.

Asking for 100,000 silver coins at this moment is simply touching a tiger's butt.

The local tyrant was not angry. He had not taken action for a long time. It was his brothers who went down the mountain to rob. It was time for him to stretch his muscles. All the opponents he met before were strong and powerful. Now there was a little brat who dared to challenge him!

If I don't beat him to a pulp, not only will I be unworthy of my title as a local emperor, but all the food I've eaten over the years will have been in vain.

"I will grant you a favor. In order to prevent people in the underworld from saying that I bully children, I will give you a hand." The local tyrant's eyes were full of disdain. Asking him a hand was a sign of respect for him.

The competition was scheduled to take place at sunrise tomorrow. Zhai Yun and the other two were locked in a dark room and their weapons were confiscated.

Qi Nuo and Zhai Yun were not worried about tomorrow's competition. The local tyrant only had brute force, but he was tall and slow in movement. It would not be difficult for Feng Chenyi to defeat him.

But after Feng Chenyi wins, will the local emperor really abide by the bet and pay the 100,000 taels of silver?

Feng Chenyi took off his cloak and covered Zhai Yun's legs with it. "Don't think about it. Go to bed early."

Zhai Yun looked at Feng Chenyi, who had taken off his cloak and was wearing thin clothes, and wanted to return the cloak.

Feng Chenyi stopped Zhai Yun's movements, "This room is damp, and your legs will feel uncomfortable again in the cold night."

Qi Nuo stood aside and watched Feng Chenyi's actions, unable to understand. As they were both men, the prince was taking too much care of Zhai Yun.

The two of them went to the cold pond to bathe, and the prince insisted that he prepare two jars of wine to warm themselves.

Who would carry wine with them when marching? He didn't know how far he had traveled for these two jars of wine. The clothes that fit Zhai Yun's size also required the best fabric.

He spent a whole day preparing just for this.

"What should we do if the local tyrant goes back on his word?" Zhai Yun couldn't help but ask.

Feng Chenyi didn't say anything, so Qi Nuo slowly said, "There are over 300 people in Shatu Village, and over 100 of them are from the Lian family. If the local emperor really changes his mind, I will risk my life to protect the eldest and second sons and get them out."

In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, all their actions were carried out in secret. There were only three of them who sneaked into the village this time, with no outside help.

No one else knew about this.

Feng Chenyi sat beside Zhai Yun and pulled her cloak. "Go to sleep! I'll take care of everything. I've thought of everything."

When Zhai Yun heard Feng Chenyi's words, although she was still a little worried, she did not ask any more questions. After all, Feng Chenyi had really grown up.

His ideas and many of the things he did were something that Zhai Yun might not be able to do even if she were reborn once.

Zhai Yun leaned on Feng Chenyi's shoulder and slowly fell asleep.

She was awakened by Feng Chenyi the next day. She rested her head on Feng Chenyi's legs, and Feng Chenyi's hand gently rested on her shoulder.
