Chapter 53: Only one can survive

Qian Jiujiu looked at Mu Yexiao's increasingly darker cheeks, somewhat confused. But when Mu Yexiao looked at Qian Jiujiu's expression, he knew that this girl had no idea what he was angry about.

Suddenly feeling a little powerless, he sighed, "It's okay, what are you going to do this afternoon?"

Qian Jiujiu said, "Of course I'm going to prepare pills and make some facial masks. You know, my store is about to open, and I don't have anything yet, so naturally I'll make some first."

Thinking of this, Qian Jiujiu thought of something else and looked at Mu Yexiao: "By the way, Mu Yexiao, what I can do alone is definitely not enough. I need to find someone to do it with me."

"Hong Ling counts as one, Hong Chou counts as one, Mu Yexiao, I want to buy someone."

Qian Jiujiu thought about it and realized that in this era, the only way to find someone quickly and reliably was to buy someone. And she thought that she was not a bad master.

As long as the people they bought don't betray themselves, they will live a good life. Thinking of this, Qian Jiujiu couldn't help but chuckle. As for the concept of equality for all.

She absolutely didn't have that. In her previous life, she had seen too much inequality. Although that was an era where everyone was equal, the so-called equality for all was nothing more than a slogan.

In fact, no matter where people live, they cannot escape the four words "the strong prey on the weak". People with ability live well, and people without ability live poorly, but it is not as obvious as in the animal world.

Mu Yexiao looked at Qian Jiujiu who was still talking, and suddenly fell into deep thought again. He looked at Dong Chen and waved at him: "Go out first."

Although Dongchen didn't know what the prince was going to do, since the prince had given the order, he had to go out. Even when Dongchen went out, Qian Jiujiu didn't notice.

Obviously still thinking about something, Mu Yexiao pushed the wheelchair to Qian Jiujiu and pulled Qian Jiujiu over. Qian Jiujiu immediately sat on Mu Yexiao's lap and came back to his senses.

She realized that she was being held in Mu Yexiao's arms, and her eyes widened immediately: "Mu Yexiao, why are you holding me?"

Mu Yexiao snorted: "If I don't hold you, you will probably completely ignore me. Jiuer, tell me, what were you thinking about just now?"

Qian Jiujiu chuckled: "Didn't I say that? I'm thinking about hiring more people. I don't need to buy too many. Six people will be enough. Three of them will follow me to learn how to make medicine."

"Three people followed me to learn about beauty products. The things in my store are sold in limited quantities every day."

"Scarcity makes things valuable. Do you think this is a good idea?"

Seeing that Qian Jiujiu was almost obsessed with doing business, he sighed: "Jiuer, can you not think about these money-smelling things while you are in my arms?"

When Qian Jiujiu heard this, her eyes widened immediately, and she struggled to stand up from Mu Yexiao's arms: "You said I stink of money, and I let you smell it?"

Humph! Qian Jiujiu snorted angrily, then turned and left. Mu Yexiao naturally pushed his wheelchair and chased after him: "Don't leave yet, I haven't finished talking yet!"

"Jiuer, I find that you are becoming less and less afraid of me."

Qian Jiujiu turned around, looked at Mu Yexiao, and laughed: "Your Majesty, you said that as if I was afraid of you."

This sentence made Mu Yexiao's face turn red. That's right, this girl has never been afraid of him. When she was so unsure at the beginning, she dared to make a bet with him.

He really didn't know what to say! At this time, the housekeeper outside came in and looked at Qian Jiujiu and Mu Yexiao, who were staring at each other.

When the housekeeper saw this scene, he was very confused as to why their God of War prince became more and more childish after meeting the princess, yet also more and more popular.

But the things that needed to be reported still needed to be reported, so she interrupted the two people's "eye contact" and looked at the prince: "Prince, Princess, someone is coming from the Shangshu Mansion outside."

Qian Jiujiu couldn't help rubbing her temples, feeling a little depressed. These people just couldn't let her be quiet for a day or two, waiting for Mu Yexiao: "See, because of you, people always cause trouble for me."

Hearing this, Mu Yexiao touched his nose silently, not knowing how to answer. After all, Qian Jiujiu was telling the truth. He looked at Qian Jiujiu and said, "Thank you for your hard work, Princess."

Qian Jiujiu snorted: "If it weren't for the high income of being a princess, I would have quit long ago."

Then he looked at the housekeeper and said, "Ask that person to come in."

The butler was just frightened by Qian Jiujiu's words, but the next moment he heard Qian Jiujiu's words, he immediately went to call people, asking them to please not abandon their prince because the old slave was so obedient.

This is what the housekeeper was thinking at this moment!

Mu Yexiao was also puzzled by Qian Jiujiu's words. She just left as she said. It was really cool. This girl didn't miss him at all. It seemed that he had to work harder.

Mu Yexiao felt a sense of crisis in his heart, and immediately started typing on the keyboard in his mind, how should he get into this girl's heart

The housekeeper brought someone up soon. It was a housekeeper beside Madam Qian. She looked at Qian Jiujiu and said, "This old servant greets the princess."

Qian Jiujiu remembered this old servant and looked at her: "Why is Mammy here? But what does mother want to see me about?"

The old servant looked at Qian Jiujiu and nodded: "Yes, Princess, Madam said that she is not feeling well and misses you, so please go back."

"Also, because you let Aunt Wan copy scriptures and chant in the Buddhist temple, which is a bit noisy, so Madam wants to move Aunt Wan out. I wonder how you, Princess, plan to deal with the two maids who follow Aunt Wan?"

Mu Yexiao was a little angry when she heard this. That was a maid in their palace, and she, the wife of a minister, wanted to send her away. She was just about to speak.

Then I heard Qian Jiujiu speak: "This princess knows, I will go back tomorrow morning."

The nanny then turned and left: "Then I will take my leave first."

Qian Jiujiu looked at the old servant's back, snorted, and sighed: "My lord, I will go to the Shangshu Mansion tomorrow."

Mu Yexiao looked at Qian Jiujiu with some distress: "Actually, if Jiuer doesn't want to go, you don't have to care. After all, Qingyu Qinglian is a slave in the palace, they dare not do anything."

Qian Jiujiu rolled her eyes: "I don't want to care about it, but do you think this is really what Madam Qian meant?"

"If Madam Qian really couldn't stand that Buddhist temple, she would have taken action long ago. I guess it was someone else who wanted to see me. And she mentioned those two Dao girls and Aunt Wan."

"They are just threatening me with Aunt Wan. I will go and see what these people are up to tomorrow."

In the blink of an eye, it was the next day. Early in the morning, Qian Jiujiu got up and went to the Shangshu Mansion. When she arrived at the Shangshu Mansion, Madam Qian looked at Qian Jiujiu with eyes as sharp as knives.

Qian Jiujiu didn't care at all, she just sat in front of Madam Qian and Qian Yuge and said, "I wonder what Madam Qian wants me to come back for?"

Madam Qian snorted coldly: "How could someone as smart as you not guess that someone else asked you to come here? Wait. It was the master who asked you to come back."

"As for why I asked you to come back, I don't know."

Qian Jiujiu said "oh" and thought to herself that it was just as expected, so she stood there waiting silently, until finally Minister Qian came back from the morning court.

As soon as he came back, he looked at Qian Jiujiu. Minister Qian nodded with satisfaction: "Princess Xiao is back. It's just right. Come with me to the study. I have something to tell you."

Qian Jiujiu stood up and followed Qian Shangshu to the study. As soon as she entered the study, she saw Qian Shangshu sitting in his seat, looking at her. Qian Jiujiu couldn't help but raise her eyebrows.

"My father looks at me like this, but what's wrong with his daughter?"

Minister Qian laughed out loud: "I didn't expect Jiujiu to be so amazing. He can be said to be a natural actor without a teacher."

"She was crying in front of her father a month ago, but today she is so strong. It seems that the prince is really fine."

Qian Jiujiu raised his eyes and looked at Qian Shangshu this time: "Father, just say what you want to say. There is no point in making sarcastic remarks like this."

Minister Qian suddenly laughed: "Hahaha, you are indeed worthy of being my daughter. Let me put it this way, father only wants to ask you one question, has the prince really detoxified?"

Qian Jiujiu nodded: "Of course it is the detoxification here, all thanks to the imperial physician! Father, are you happy for your daughter too? At least she doesn't have to worry about being buried alive with you at any time."

Minister Qian snorted coldly: "That's not necessarily true. Actually, Jiujiu, my father came here today to ask you one more thing. How does your Aunt Wan treat you?"

Qian Jiujiu immediately became alert: "Why does father ask this question?"

Minister Qian just stared at him: "Because father wants to know, if only one of Aunt Wan and Mu Yexiao can live, who do you choose to live?"

Qian Jiujiu looked at Minister Qian in disbelief: "How could only one survive? They don't want to do it..."

Before Qian Jiujiu could finish her words, Qian Shangshu interrupted her: "No, no, no, they are related. They are all people close to you. The mission requires you to kill Mu Yexiao."

"If you don't do this, Aunt Wan will be angry because you rejected Father Twenty. You know my methods. If you want to kill Aunt Wan, I have plenty of ways to do it."

Qian Jiujiu looked at Qian Shangshu hatefully: "But father, Aunt Wan is also your woman, and she gave birth to me for you, how could you..."

"Humph! If she hadn't given birth to you, her fate probably wouldn't be so miserable. So you were born to be her unlucky. So whether you want Aunt Wan to die or not is up to you."

"As for you, you can rest assured. If you really listen to my father, I will not abandon you. As long as you kill Mu Yexiao, I will arrange for you to escape."

"You haven't committed yourself to Mu Yexiao yet, and you're still a virgin. You can change your identity and live a good life. What do you think?"
