"Swish"

However, this anger was stopped by Chen Qiang's whip cracking once more in the air.

"No money, everyone rushes to Ma Peng."

"Get out of here! What kind of person do you think you are, dreaming of having a room to stay?"

As soon as he finished speaking, the guards were already preparing to move the people to the stables at the back.

The group from the last of the Yan Prince's residence remained silent, quietly observing the situation unfolding ahead. They had figured out that it was simply a matter of money.

Now that she understood, Gu Nanzhi took action. She generously took out thirty taels of silver from her sleeve, weighed it in her hand, and...

She has money.

"Come on, bring your master along, I'll take you to an inn."

As soon as she finished speaking, she lifted her leg and walked through the crowd into the post station;

Butler Li and the others had no money on them, and they thought they could only let their mistress suffer like this, but they never expected the mistress to be so domineering.

How exactly did the lady hide the money?

Cang Ling knew they were wealthy, but he also saw that his master had already given all that money to his mistress. This action by his mistress secretly pleased him.

Having money makes things convenient. They don't care where they live, but they don't want their master and mistress to suffer like this.

This kind of lady inexplicably has a bit more domineering and dashing air about her, and he also knows that the money his master gave to his lady was in banknotes, and what his lady is taking out now is the money she hid herself.

Jun Yanchen gave her the money so she wouldn't suffer any hardship on the journey. However, it was a bit surprising that she still had money on her.

Gu Nanzhi moved, and Xia He, her loyal maid, followed eagerly, wondering where her young mistress had gotten the money.

However, she knew what her mistress meant. Her mistress was different now. In any case, she shouldn't ask too many questions, just listen to her mistress, follow her, and not cause her any trouble.

The group paused for a few seconds, then quickly grabbed their belongings and followed the lady.

Ignoring the stares of the crowd, Gu Nanzhi led the five people behind her into the post station, approached the clerk at the counter, and placed the thirty taels of silver in front of him.

"Thirty taels of silver, enough for three rooms, a good meal, hot water, and two jugs of fine wine for the escorts. Is that enough?"

When they saw Gu Nanzhi walk in, Chen Qiang and the others had already guessed what she was up to. After all, they had witnessed her readily handing over money in the past three days, so they automatically assumed she was wealthy.

However, I was still a little surprised by her extravagant act of taking out thirty taels of silver and ordering three rooms. This woman really doesn't know how to save money.

How much money is she hiding on her?

For exiled prisoners, it wasn't just the escorts who wanted to make money off them; the people at the post stations along the way also tacitly agreed to charge them extra.

However, people as decisive as Gu Nanzhi are rare. The postmaster's expression softened considerably, unlike his earlier treatment of others.

Thirty taels is more than enough.

Enough, enough.

The courier immediately took the thirty taels of silver in front of him, as if afraid that Gu Nanzhi would change her mind if he was a step too slow. This woman was truly different; her demeanor didn't seem like that of someone who had come all the way from exile.

I'm rather curious about this person's past identity. The fact that he could remain so composed in the face of exile is quite different from the women behind him who all looked so distressed.

After taking the money, he didn't forget to mock those fellow exiles who had just been clamoring for rooms.

"See? If you don't have money, you'd better go to the stable."

Those who were mocked didn't look pleased. They couldn't do anything about the guards or the post station staff, so they could only harbor resentment towards Gu Nanzhi.

Why did this woman receive preferential treatment from the guards just because she saved that guard named Chen Gang? How could someone so young know how to save someone? It must have been a coincidence that she happened to be there.

Despite being exiled as well, she dares to be so arrogant. Let's see what she does when she runs out of money.

She'll probably have to use her body to please the guards by then; she might even have already seduced them. Otherwise, why would the guards treat her so well?

You slut, you vixen;

Gu Nanzhi had no interest in what these people were thinking; as long as they didn't provoke her, that was fine. Now that she had a room, it was best to go and rest there.

He turned to Chen Qiang and said, "Lord Chen, we'll head back to our rooms now."

After saying that, he didn't forget to remind the postman,

"Deliver the food and hot water to the rooms as soon as possible, and don't forget to send two jugs of good wine to the escorts."

"okay"

The innkeeper agreed and handed her the room numbers for the three rooms they had been given. So be it, he was an exile. As long as there was money, he would naturally fulfill these requests. Thirty taels was already quite a lot.

This woman is known for her social skills and good manners. Even though she already owes Chen Gang a life-saving favor, she still tries to be friendly to the escorts, making it impossible for them to cause them any trouble.

They could only watch helplessly as Gu Nanzhi led the other five people up to the second floor of the post station.

Seeing how extravagant other people's wives are, some people look at their own wives with a hint of disdain, thinking, "They're so useless, they can't even save a penny."

As for the situation of the others, that was not within Gu Nanzhi's consideration. She led them upstairs; there were six people in three rooms, which naturally meant two people per room.

Gu Nanzhi handed the room number plates for the other two rooms to Butler Li.

"Uncle Li, here, you can distribute them yourselves."

"Alright, alright, thank you so much, Madam. You've gone to so much trouble, this old servant..."

Steward Li felt extremely ashamed. His wife hadn't enjoyed any happiness since entering their manor, ending up in exile with them. Now, she was even using her own hidden money to get them rooms. But his wife's actions were too decisive; she didn't give them a chance to refuse or discuss it.

As slaves, how could they possibly deserve such treatment from their masters?

"Alright, alright, go and rest. Hot water will be brought over soon, so you can wash up and have a proper meal."

Gu Nanzhi didn't like to talk about these things. She just wanted the rooms and would stay there. After all, they were part of the same team, and they were respectful. Besides, their master, Jun Yanchen, had given her a considerable amount of money.

It's not appropriate to book a room for her and Xia He to stay in at a time like this. Let's just leave them be!

Besides, it's not like she's short of money. She has plenty of borrowed silver in her spatial storage, which she's using to improve her life!

"Xia He, let's go."

After speaking, Gu Nanzhi led Xia He into one of the rooms. Their three rooms were connected, and Gu Nanzhi and Xia He entered the one closest to the right.

Naturally, Jun Yancheng and Cang Ling entered the middle, while Steward Li and Zhou Cai were on the far left.

The other three families ultimately decided to pay for the rooms, but they lacked Gu Nanzhi's generosity. The Zhao and Xiao families each only asked for one room, while the Qi family asked for two.

Naturally, there wasn't enough room for all of their family members. At this point, only those with influence and favor within the family were allowed into the rooms, while the others were left outside.

The Qi family was relatively well-off; they opened two rooms, so even if it was crowded, everyone managed to squeeze into a room and wasn't stuck in the stables outside.
