"Princess? "Why are you here?" When Little White saw Mu Ru Yue, he was so shocked that he didn't look well. They had been making a ruckus for quite some time now. Even big sister Ling Xi had already hidden herself. In case they caught her and gave her trouble. Result? The wangfei had actually come by herself!
"You are the Seventh Princess? Return our land deed to us! " The leader of the men said.
Mu Ru Yue looked at the person who spoke and saw that he looked completely honest. His sallow face was filled with fury. It was as if she was deceiving the sinner of eight generations of her ancestors. It was true that the more honest a person looked, the more crazy they would become if they were to be unreasonable.
Mu Ru Yue thought to herself as she suppressed her anger and smiled, "Your land deed? I didn't see it. All I know is that right now, there's a bunch of reckless people making a ruckus in my territory. You have to know that this place is now owned by my Seventh Prince's Estate. "
"This is clearly us …"
"Right now, the master's name is Mu Ru Yue. I hope you can remember this." Mu Ru Yue interrupted the man's words before sweeping her gaze toward the crowd and said, "I have an agreement with Miss Ling Xi among you. I will give you a place to rest. But if you really infuriate me and chase you out, it's just a small matter. After all, you have no right to ask me for anything. "
"Princess, are you definitely not going to give up on our land deed?" A voice abruptly sounded from within the crowd.
"Who's farting? "Stand out." Mu Ru Yue replied angrily.
Then, a fair skinned youth walked out from the crowd. He looked at Mu Ru Yue with an indignant expression and said, "We, the ancestors, have lived here for generations. Royal Consort, what right do you have to swindle our land away?"
"Oh? What's your name? I have to see if your name is in the deed. After all … How could a person who wore boots forged from cloud silk possibly live in such a place? Your shoes must be worth at least a hundred and eighty silver, right? "
Murong Ye said with a faint smile.
When everyone heard this, they were stunned and looked toward the young man's shoes.
The youth's face stiffened.
"I don't know who you are, but even if there isn't you in the land deed, what if there is? You originally sold this place to me for protection, and now you want to go back on your word? How could there be such a good thing in the world? "
As Mu Ru Yue spoke, she said to Xiao Bai, "Xiao Bai, go and invite your family's Ling Xi here. Today, I will make the decision for these people."
"Yes." Lil 'White said respectfully and went into the room to look for someone.
In just a short moment, Lil 'White had brought him out. When everyone saw Ling Xi come out, they began to get excited again. And Murong Yue, had finally seen Ling Xi. In just two days, Ling Xi had become quite haggard.
In terms of appearance, he didn't even have the confidence from before.
Seeing Mu Rong Yue, Ling Xi's smile became a little forced as she bowed and said, "Many thanks for your presence, Princess Wang."
"I came uninvited, why are you thanking me? But you... "Since this matter is so troublesome, why would I need to endure it all by myself?" Murong Yue scrutinized Ling Xi. When Ling Xi heard this, she bitterly laughed. "It's merely a small matter. Who would dare to trouble an imperial concubine?"
"Is that so?" Mu Ru Yue raised her brows as disbelief filled her eyes. This woman, Ling Xi, treated others with schemes and schemes. Yet, she treated people from the western region very kindly. She didn't want to say it. Perhaps it wasn't because she found it troublesome, but because she was afraid that she would expel these people?
"Everyone, you want to see me. I'm here now. You wanted to see the princess, and now the princess is here, too. What do you want to do, you'd better think about it. "After all, the land deed belongs to her, and this place belongs to her as well." Ling Xi looked at the crowd and coldly said.
These words seemed to be helping Murong Yue establish her might. But in fact, it was just giving them a final ultimatum. I hope they wake up.
Everyone looked at each other.
They just didn't want to be at a disadvantage.
When Mu Ru Yue saw this, she couldn't help but smile. "Don't tell me you all think that you will have a place to stand once this place becomes an outsider's place? Now they are buying here, so the price is very high. However, the moment you leave this place, your status will still be as a person from the refugee zone. You have cheated the merchants' money, will they give you something good to eat? You will pay back the silver coins that you have earned! "
Mu Ru Yue's tone was ice-cold, but she didn't actually try to scare these people. If something abnormal happened, there must be a demon. Those merchants were so generous because they wanted to snatch a place. However, what about when they turned back?
When these people were of no use, and when His Majesty didn't forgive these people, he'd always be here. Where in the world would they find a place to stand? She only accepted these people because she had already promised them.
Moreover, he didn't want these people to be tricked to death.
After all, she had been deeply impressed by the first sight that day when she had come to the refugee area.
Mu Ru Yue's words were like a wake-up call that stunned everyone.
Ling Xi looked gratefully at Murong Yue. She had said those words before, but these people didn't believe her words. Even if they didn't believe her, they would at least suspect them a little.
She'd thought that the princess would just kick them out, but now she'd given everyone a chance to make a choice.
"Who knows if you're lying to us?" The teenager opened his mouth again.
Mu Ru Yue swept a gaze at the youth and sniggered. "At the very least, I should be more trustworthy than someone in a commoner district who wears expensive shoes, right? After all, I can chase you away, but I can leave you behind. You guys have been well protected by Ling Xi, and you still think it's laughable that you suffered a loss? "
The mockery in Mu Ru Yue's words was obvious. Everyone looked at each other. In the end, they all fell silent.
Seeing this, Ling Xi hurriedly said, "Everyone, don't think that the wangfei is losing out to you. In fact, the silver that she has given us isn't much different from those people. Even the Princess is willing to protect us. "In a few days, when we sell the things that the princess has sent us, we will definitely be able to live a good life."
"Why should we believe you?" the yellow-faced burly man asked.
However, Ling Xi wasn't angry, and her expression was gentle as she replied, "Because we are all the same. Ling Xi has lived here since she was young. All these years, you should know better what kind of person Ling Xi is, right? "
At this moment, most of the crowd's thoughts had turned dark. Seeing Ling Xi's current state, she naturally no longer had the overbearing attitude from before. In just a short while, these people had all dispersed.
Seeing that everyone had dispersed, Ling Xi heaved a sigh of relief. Looking at Murong Yue, she said apologetically, "Royal Concubine, this matter was done by Ling Xi. However, you must believe in Ling Xi. Before long, everyone will understand your hard work and benevolence. "
"I'm not interested in their understanding. You protected them because you begged them, and because of those deeds. " Mu Ru Yue said calmly. The gratitude of these people? Since it wasn't appropriate for her to eat, she really didn't need it.
"Royal Consort, there will be a day when Ling Xi believes that you definitely won't regret it." Ling Xi promised.
