Gourmet Girl: Becoming a Royal Merchant Started from Selling Buns

"Who?"

Su An's heart beat suddenly, and he looked over with his eyes fixed, but the next moment his face became stiff.

The man who came was wearing a light dragon yellow robe, with a handsome face and a swaggering smile. It was the current emperor Chu Yi!

With ten lightly-armed guards behind him, he arrived in a short while.

Su An's heart was filled with turmoil.

Damn it, why is this plague god here!

Especially since the emperor appeared right after Fu Zhun left. Is there any connection between them?

Chu Yi stared at the changing expressions on Su An's face with interest, and suddenly laughed out loud twice, but the laughter did not reach his eyes, "Why, Miss Su doesn't seem to welcome me?"

"You've repeatedly disrespected me... Tsk tsk, how should I deal with you?"

Su An was filled with rage, and with a look of trepidation on her face, she knelt down and saluted, saying, "Your Majesty, I pay my respects to you. I was so dazzled by your majesty's face that I was unable to recover for a moment. How dare I be disrespectful? I hope your majesty will forgive me."

Upon hearing this, Chu Yi looked at her black hair and laughed strangely.

"How dare you! I intended to take you as my concubine, but you ignored His Majesty's grace and repeatedly refused. How dare a mere commoner look down on me like this?"

Feeling the hostile pressure from above, Su An was stunned and thought it was a fairy tale.

So the emperor came here specifically to question the emperor because of this incident?

This guy must be crazy!

Chu Yi seemed to see through Su An, and continued with a half-smile: "Just as you thought, I am still interested in you, so I came here in person to find you without hesitation."

He said slowly, "In consideration of your ignorance, I can forgive your previous offense and give you another chance. Tomorrow you will set off and return to the palace with me. I will make you my concubine and grant you countless wealth and splendor."

Su An: "..."

Brainless, arrogant, greasy and trustworthy!

She took a deep breath and forced a timid smile:

"Thank you for your kindness, Your Majesty. It's not that I look down on you, but your grace is so great that I know I'm no match for you. Furthermore, I only want to stay in Fuyou County and run my shop. I have no intention of leaving. I'm afraid I'll be a disappointment to your Majesty."

Chu Yi paused when he heard this, and the determination on his face turned gloomy.

He stared at Su An from above, "Haha, Miss Su, are you afraid of death?"

Su An cursed in his heart, what kind of emperor would make such a vulgar threat!

Suddenly raising her head, she flattered him earnestly, "I am a weak woman, naturally I am afraid, but Your Majesty will definitely not let me die. All the subjects in the world are Your Majesty's descendants. Your Majesty's power is great, and I am so safe because of your protection!"

As soon as these words came out, the guards behind him twitched their mouths.

This is the first person who responded flatteringly after being threatened by His Majesty. They should learn from him!

"Hahaha!" Chu Yi's heart instantly blossomed, his eagle eyes filled with deep admiration and interest. "Good, good! I've known for a long time that Miss Su is eloquent, and it's true. I'm very pleased."

Su An quietly wiped the cold sweat from his palms. Fortunately, this matter should be over.

Unexpectedly, Chu Yi changed the subject and said in a harsh voice, "However, if your crime of disrespect is not severely punished, won't all the descendants of the world despise me and the imperial power?"

Su An almost vomited a mouthful of blood. He opened his lips to say something in defense, but Chu Yi waved his hand.

"Come here, Miss Su has committed treason. She must be immediately put in a carriage and brought back to the capital with me tomorrow to be punished."

"Yes!"

Before Su An could struggle, he suddenly felt a pain on the back of his neck and fainted.

When she opened her eyes again, she found herself in a carriage, her hands and feet were tied, and a piece of cloth was stuffed in her mouth so that she could not speak.

Chu Yi sat leisurely by the window.

Through the shaky window gaps, I could see that it was already bright outside and we were about to leave the county town.

"Huh?!" Su An stared at Chu Yi in disbelief. He couldn't imagine an emperor doing this. How was this any different from kidnapping?

It’s better to do it in the middle of the night when there is no one around!

Chu Yi just glanced at her lazily and said, "Although you are quite interesting, if you don't know how to behave and make a scene, don't blame me for attacking a woman."

Su An: "..."

Well, he who knows the times is a hero!

This effort would only be a thankless task, so she calmed down and secretly observed the scene outside the window.

There were guards on horseback lined up on both sides of the window, so jumping out of the window was unlikely...

Just as Su An was frantically thinking about whether she could escape, she suddenly heard a commotion outside.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty! I don't know what my daughter has done wrong that you kidnapped her in the middle of the night! Please have mercy on my daughter and let her go!"

Li Guihua rushed out from the side of the street with her three children, stood in the middle of the road, and knelt down crying towards the carriage.

"I beg His Majesty to release my eldest sister. She has always been a well-behaved person and has never done anything wrong!" Su Jiang said in a suppressed angry and uneasy voice.

Su Ting and Su Yue's pleading followed closely behind: "What did Big Sister do wrong? Why did you take her away?"

The moment he heard these voices, Su An's eyes turned red, and he was both surprised and flustered.

How did her family know that she was taken away by the emperor? And they even stopped the carriage in public!

just in case……

Chu Yi's handsome face suddenly turned dark, and his aura became gloomy.

The guards outside the carriage drew their swords and shouted, "How dare you, these unruly people, stop the emperor's carriage? Leave immediately!"

"Your Majesty, please escort the criminal Su An back to the capital for punishment. Please tolerate your insolence!"

But the next moment, the scene before them made them drop their jaws in shock.

"The one in this team is actually His Majesty the Emperor!"

"Quick!"

Amid the noise, it seemed as if all the people in the entire county had heard the sound and were running to kneel down in the street!

Led by Li Guihua and a few others, the entire street was packed with people, all looking at the luxurious carriage with anxious and pleading expressions.

"Your Majesty! Please don't take Boss Su away. She is a great benefactor to our Fuyou County! She has always worked for the good of our people. How could she become a criminal?"

"That's right! She has contributed so much, it's no exaggeration to say she deserves a reward!"

At this time, Lin Yong hurried over with the yamen runners, but he was not there to tidy up the chaotic streets.

Instead, he lifted his robe and knelt respectfully with Li Guihua and the others.

"Your humble servant, Lin Yong, the Magistrate of Fuyou County, pays his respects to Your Majesty!"

"Your Majesty, Su An's contributions to Fuyou County are not insignificant. She has even done a great service to the world! I wonder what she has done to deserve Your Majesty's visit. Please show some mercy!"

As Lin Yong finished speaking, the people around him shouted one after another, all pleading for Su An and expressing their grievances.

After all, even the county magistrate has taken the lead, so it is even less likely that they will be cowardly!

Waves of thunderous shouts entered the carriage, and there were changes on Su An and Chu Yi's faces.

Su An was so moved that she wanted to cry and wanted to rush out.

Chu Yi clenched his fists so hard that they crackled, completely unable to believe it.

How could a peasant girl have such great influence?!
