"Uh..." Xia Youchen's old face flushed slightly. He didn't deliberately want to cheat Mu Hanyan, and he really wanted to repay Mu Hanyan, but letting Xiao Qiongqi stay by Mu Hanyan's side somehow meant that he was out of sight and out of mind.
"Gentlemen don't steal people's love, you should let it continue to follow you." Mu Hanyan said righteously.
Just now, I saw the little guy trying to play cute in front of me. When Mu Hanyan was in a good mood, he threw some snacks for him. As a result, he ate it endlessly. All kinds of snacks and delicacies were eaten by it, and it still refused to let go, grabbing Mu Hanyan's trouser legs and screaming and making noise, almost rolling on the floor.
Mu Hanyan secretly wiped away her cold sweat, and finally felt the pain in Xia Youchen's heart.
Although this guy had a rare prestige once before, God knows if he will be willing to make a move the next time he encounters danger. Mu Hanyan dare not pin his hopes on it. More importantly, because of its good appetite, Mu Hanyan worried that he would be eaten up by it sooner or later.
Ignoring the little Qiongqi who had already started acting like a spoiled child, Mu Hanyan took out a pen and paper to write a letter and handed it to Xia Youchen.
"The old man is leaving first, Miss Mu, take care all the way." Xia Youchen took the letter, carefully put it away, cupped his hands at Mu Hanyan, and then waved his hand, and Xiao Qiongqi, who was rolling on the ground, disappeared.
Seeing this guy's embarrassing appearance, he was also ashamed for a while, and he didn't even want to take another look.
Mu Hanyan also led Yue Xiuming towards Shangyue Capital.
Without the threat of the Violent Stone monster, the two of them naturally didn't need to go around the Longyan Mountains anymore, but they didn't need to return to Hanshan Town either. After wandering in the mountains for more than half a month, they couldn't find their way back.
Estimating the direction of Shangyue Capital, the two of them walked all the way. After a few days, they left the mountain road, and an ancient city appeared in sight. However, the city wall is unusually tall and majestic, which is probably also a major feature of Shangyue Kingdom.
Because the whole people are good at fighting and the folk customs are strong, and the Shangyue Kingdom has been fighting frequently since ancient times, so the cities, no matter how big or small, are built extremely strong, easy to defend and difficult to attack.
"Dingbian City." On the gate of the city, there are three solemn and solemn characters.
"This is the most important town in the northwest of our Shangyue Kingdom, Dingbian City. Three thousand miles to the east, we will be the capital of Shangyue." Seeing the big characters on the city gate, Yue Xiuming was very excited. If he doesn't stay away from the Longyan Mountains for a day, he can't feel at ease for a day. Only now can he be sure that he is finally safe.
Seeing the prosperous scene of people and businessmen at the gate of the city, Mu Hanyan felt a lot more relaxed. Although the journey was not dangerous, she still felt a little tired because of the wind, meals and sleeping every day. She just wanted to find a beautiful inn. Get some sleep.
"I don't know what happened to Huayue and the others?" Mu Hanyan thought secretly.
It stands to reason that she lured away the two violent stone beasts, and the remaining weak beasts should not pose any threat to them, not to mention that Li Dingfeng also brought hundreds of elite forbidden troops from Shangyue Kingdom. These forbidden troops are a bit weak against the berserk stone monsters, but they shouldn't be a big problem against ordinary beasts.
But thinking of the strange and powerful beast in the depths of the Longyan Mountains mentioned by Xia Youchen, and thinking of the Nine Nether Beasts, Mu Hanyan was still a little uneasy.
Hope they're okay. Mu Hanyan knew that her worries were in vain and she was just looking for trouble, so she quickly adjusted her mood and prayed for them secretly.
"Let's go, let's go to a bank first." Mu Hanyan said as he walked towards the city.
She carried a lot of bank notes on her body, but the smallest ones were hundreds of thousands of taels, but she didn't have any broken silver. It was inconvenient to eat and stay in a hotel, so she had to find a bank to exchange some silver taels.
In the past, Huayue and others were by her side, so of course she didn't need to worry about this kind of thing, but now that Huayue and others are not around, Miss Mu can only figure out a solution by herself.
"Oh." After hearing Mu Hanyan's words, Yue Xiuming, who had been in high spirits just now, died suddenly, looking weak and hesitant to speak.
"What's wrong?" Mu Hanyan asked.
"I owe you those taels of silver, can I pay you back in a few days?" Yue Xiu Ming looked at Mu Hanyan flatteringly, and seemed to have misunderstood Mu Hanyan, thinking that she was in a hurry to find the bank to force herself to pay back the money. .
"You don't want to renege on your debt, do you?" Seeing Yue Xiuming's obsequious smile, Mu Hanyan felt ominous.
Although she originally didn't mean to take advantage of others' dangers, but Yue Xiuming insisted on taking the initiative to write down the IOU, so she became disrespectful. Now that she reneges on the debt, isn't that cheating Miss Mu's feelings? The consequences are very serious.
"No, no." Seeing Miss Mu's willow leaf eyebrows that were gradually standing on end, Yue Xiuming was a little terrified, and quickly explained, "I just don't have that much money, and I will definitely pay you back if there is a little more time."
"The son of Prince Anxi, the hall party, can't even get tens of millions of taels?" Mu Hanyan glanced at Yue Xiuming suspiciously.
"The son is the son, and the prince is the prince. Before I inherited the prince, all the properties of the Anxi Palace were managed by His Majesty. I can only receive a little salary every month." Yue Xiuming explained patiently, and added at the end One sentence, "But don't worry, when I inherit the lordship, I will control all the properties of the Anxi Palace, and I promise to return you twice."
"Then when will you inherit the title?" Mu Hanyan asked.
"I don't know either, wait... until His Majesty finds me pleasing to the eye." Yue Xiuming said with a lack of confidence. It is estimated that His Majesty has never been pleasing to his eyes since he was a child.
"Forget it, I don't want you to pay me back twice." Mu Hanyan said.
Yue Xiuming was overjoyed, and was about to thank him when he heard Mu Hanyan say, "Just calculate the interest, eight percent per month."
"What, what?" Yue Xiuming was poured from head to toe with a bucket of cold water, and looked at Mu Hanyan dumbfounded.
I thought that Miss Mu was showing mercy, and the trouble for a long time was worse than usury. The monthly interest is eight cents, and it will almost double in a year. If he can't inherit the prince and pay back the money after a few years, the interest will continue to increase, and he may as well give her the Anxi Palace.
"Aren't you willing? I don't want to pay it back now." Mu Hanyan glared at Yue Xiuming. She dared to pay the debt without money. Miss Mu, who thought she had been cheated of her feelings, was very angry. The consequences would of course be serious.
"Eight percent profit is eight percent profit." Yue Xiuming slumped his head, unable to raise his spirits anymore, and followed Miss Mu like a doormat. Oh, by the way, he was a doormat.
