The queen is crazy and spoiled, and the tyrant bows to her

Jiang Wantang turned around and looked at Yun Shang behind him, leaned forward and bowed, moving forward and backward with moderation.

A hint of surprise flashed in Yun Shang's eyes. This was the first time someone treated her with gentlemanly courtesy.

Many men expressed their love for her, but none of them actually respected her.

Then she heard "him" speak in a gentle tone: "Miss Yunshang, I didn't mean to offend you."

"It's just that this girl is so talented and beautiful, and her dancing skills are outstanding, it's a pity that she has to live in this willow-covered place. I am willing to redeem her."

Yun Shang lowered her eyes, with a hint of loneliness in them.

Sure enough, "he" was just like those men who coveted her beauty. He just wanted to buy her back to be a mistress or concubine.

But the next moment, the words of the man in front of her made her stunned.

He said, "I have no intention of treating you badly. I simply want to redeem you."

"When the time comes, I will return the indenture to you and grant you freedom."

Yun Shang was startled, and then a complex emotion that was difficult to describe surged into her heart.

The brothel owner was not happy about this, because Yun Shang was the most beautiful courtesan she had carefully cultivated in Hongyan Garden and was her cash cow.

This money tree is just dropping gold, how can it be uprooted by others?

"Ten thousand taels!"

"I'll pay ten thousand taels to redeem Miss Yunshang. Is that enough?" Jiang Wantang looked at the brothel owner steadily and spoke firmly.

As soon as this statement came out, the whole place was in an uproar.

Someone actually spent ten thousand taels of silver to redeem a prostitute without asking for anything in return.

It is indeed a rare thing.

It's like pie in the sky.

The madam was shocked: "Sir, are you serious?"

"My Hongyan Garden requires payment and delivery. We don't accept credit. Are you refusing to pay?"

Jiang Wantang raised her lips and smiled: "Absolutely true."

After saying that, he handed the silver note of ten thousand taels to the brothel owner.

At this moment, Zhang Heng, who was almost at the gate, stopped, clenched his fists, and walked out with a grim face.

This time, he really lost both face and substance.

The madam took the banknote and looked it over. After confirming that it was all right, she said with a smile, "Young Master is really generous!"

"It is Yun Shang's blessing to be favored by the young master."

After receiving the money, the brothel owner did not hesitate and immediately handed Yunchang's indenture contract to Jiang Wantang.

Jiang Wantang walked up to Yun Shang and handed the indenture contract to her, then took out 10,000 taels of silver from his sleeve and put it on her.

She smiled and said, "The clouds have dispersed, and the sky is full of stars."

"I hope that from now on, you will be free and at ease, and live a long and peaceful life."

When she said this, her beautiful peach blossom eyes were focused and full of sincere emotions.

Yun Shang's heart was shocked.

She lowered her eyes and looked at the "heavy" pieces of paper in her hands. Her eyes were red and her hands were shaking slightly.

After a long while, he finally spoke softly: "Thank you, benefactor!"

"I wonder if you could move aside, benefactor. Yun Shang has a few words to say to you in private."

In the private room.

Jiang Wantang sat on a carved bench, and Yun Shang stood in front of her and bowed.

"Thank you so much for your generosity today and for redeeming Yun Shang."

"Yun Shang is grateful in her heart. I am willing to work like a slave for you all my life to repay you." She spoke every word firmly.

After saying that, he handed over the indenture contract and ten thousand taels of silver with both hands.

Jiang Wantang smiled and said, "I don't need you to work like a slave for me, nor do I need you to repay me."

"I just saw that the girl was pretty and had extraordinary dancing skills, so I felt pity for her and decided to be a hero and save her."

"There's no need for you to keep it in mind, girl."

Yun Shang lowered her eyes and was silent for a long while before she said softly, "Young Master isn't actually a young master, but a rich lady, right?"

When I first saw her on the platform, I had some doubts in my heart.

It was simple. During the two years she had been performing in the brothel, she had seen all kinds of men and women, tall and short, fat and thin.

Although the person in front of me is wearing loose men's clothes, her exquisite figure can still be vaguely seen, and her every move can hardly conceal her feminine grace.

This was beyond Jiang Wantang's expectations.

She raised her eyebrows, not expecting that she would be found out as a girl so quickly.

Jiang Wantang nodded and said frankly, "Yes."

"Thank you, Miss, for your help!"

Yun Shang suddenly knelt on the ground and refused to get up no matter how she pulled her.

Jiang Wantang frowned: "Why are you doing this?"

"Yun Shang is willing to follow you as a slave for the rest of your life. Please accept me."

"Except for this, I can agree to everything else." Jiang Wantang said lightly.

"Get up quickly!"

Yun Shang shook her head and said stubbornly: "If the young lady doesn't agree, I won't get up."

Jiang Wantang sighed and said helplessly, "Isn't freedom good?"

"No, freedom is good."

"But living in troubled times without the freedom to protect oneself is not necessarily a good thing."

"Yun Shang grew up alone and helpless, and she was born in a brothel..."

"Today we have Master Zhang, but who can guarantee there won't be other Master Lis and Master Zhaos later..."

"As I am, I am destined to be unable to survive freely in this world."

"Please accept me, Miss!"

After she finished speaking, Yun Shang was about to bow down, but Jiang Wantang stopped her and helped her up.

Yun Shang was right. In this world, a lonely and helpless woman with a beautiful appearance is indeed easy to attract the covetousness of bad people.

But Yun Shang is different, she is smart and bold...

Based on her understanding of Yun Shang in her previous life, she has enough ability to protect herself.

These words were just a way for him to stay with her and repay her.

Thinking of this, Jiang Wantang sighed: "It's not that I don't want to keep you, but..."

Having said this, Jiang Wantang paused, raised her hand to take off the hair crown on her head, and her three thousand strands of black hair fell down.

Yun Shang was stunned when she saw her tear off some of the disguise on her face, revealing a fair and flawless face.

The woman in front of me has black hair, red lips, skin whiter than snow, a pair of sparkling peach blossom eyes with a teardrop mole at the corner of her eyes, she is so beautiful that you can't take your eyes off her.

Even though Yun Shang had seen all kinds of beauties, she was still shocked by the beauty of the woman in front of her.

"I am the second young lady of the Jiang family, who was just brought back to the Prime Minister's Mansion. I will soon enter the palace for the selection." Jiang Wantang said lightly.

"Entering the harem is like entering a den of dragons and tigers."

"If you are not careful one day, you will die."

"And if you follow me, you will only be able to live a precarious life in the harem, controlled by others."

Jiang Wantang handed the indenture contract and banknotes back to her hands, speaking softly.

"Yun Shang, you've had enough hardship these years."

"Now that I've finally gained my freedom, it's time to find my own life."
