"Did you really earn that one million silver note by selling Mr. Xie?" Wen Huan felt uneasy while holding the silver note. Moreover, Wuxing County was small, and neither the counter shop nor the trading house could exchange such a large amount of silver. Just when she was thinking about whether to exchange thirty to fifty thousand taels to deal with the immediate shortage first, she accidentally saw Hua Jin and Hua Rong going to see Princess Guangling to say goodbye.
Wen Huan saw how much Hua Jin wanted to marry Xie Xun through these interactions.
There is no way they can leave without a head or a reason.
Of course, Wen Huan did not connect them with the one million taels of silver notes at the first time. Instead, he thought they were going back to Jincheng County as an excuse, but in fact they followed Xie Xun to Guangling County.
Of course she couldn't let them get their wish.
Just when she was about to step forward to stop her, Hua Rong saw the banknote in her hand first and said before she spoke, "I knew she would regret it!"
Wen Huan followed her gaze to look at the banknote in his hand, and after hearing what Chen Anning said about selling Xie Xun, he immediately guessed the origin of the banknote.
"This banknote..."
"She just had a quarrel with Miss Chen Er." Hua Jin casually gave an excuse and forcibly pulled Hua Rong away.
Wen Huan also planned to leave and asked Chen Anning to find out.
Princess Guangling stopped her.
Although Wen Huan was not sure whether it was true or not, he still told his guess.
After hearing this, Princess Guangling just nodded and said nothing more.
She was an elder, so Wen Huan didn't hesitate to ask more questions, so he came to see Chen Anning first.
Chen Anning looked at the banknote in her hand, and belatedly remembered that this was not the capital, so she asked, "What's wrong? Can't I exchange it?"
Wen Huan nodded and shook his head, "Even in the capital, it is difficult to come up with one million taels at a time. However, the shopkeepers of the shop and the store knew that we wanted to use the money to care for the children, so they all They promised that they can help us with turnaround arrangements, but it will take some time."
Chen Anning said: "That's good."
"Don't change the subject, I'm not asking you about this." Wen Huan sat next to her and looked at her with a sharp look that she could not escape, "Did you really earn this bank note by selling Xie Xun?"
Chen Anning raised an eyebrow, "Yes, is there any problem?"
Wen Huan was puzzled: "Why are you doing this?"
Chen Anning smiled and said, "First, he is short of money. Second, Xie Xun is a human being, not a commodity, and he cannot be sold by me. Even if...he is a commodity, we are not married yet, and he does not belong to me yet. So, I have no right to sell him."
Wen Huan blinked, "So..."
Chen Anning also blinked at her, "So, if someone insists on giving me money, shouldn't I be a fool?"
Wen Huan admired: "High, really high!"
Chen Anning chuckled, "Any more questions?"
"No more." Wen Huan stood up and said hesitantly before leaving, "That's right. Before I came to you, I saw Miss Hua and Miss Hua going to say goodbye to Princess Guangling. I thought they I wanted to quietly go to Guangling County to find Mr. Xie, so I wanted to stop it, and then...then Princess Guangling asked me, and I told her about your betrayal of Mr. Xie..."
Chen Anning clicked her tongue, "I understand."
Wen Huan looked at her carefully, "No, are you okay?"
Chen Anning thought about it and said, "It should be fine."
Wen Huan looked at her expression and it really didn't look like nothing was wrong, so she said, "Do you want to go out and hide for a while?"
Chen Anning was confused: "Why should I hide?"
Wen Huan said: "Then you should be careful."
"Okay." Chen Anning nodded.
After Wen Huan left, Chen Anning continued to read the information, but she stopped after reading less than two pages. Selling Xie Xun was indeed caused by lack of money, but more importantly, he wanted to teach Hua Jin and Hua Rong a lesson. It’s just... Although Princess Guangling is open-minded and generous...
That’s all.
Let me explain a few words.
Chen Anning stood up and as soon as she walked out of the study, she met Princess Guangling walking towards her.
"princess……"
"Don't worry," Princess Guangling interrupted her gently, "I have already solved it."
Chen Anning was curious, "How did the princess solve it?"
Princess Guangling smiled, "Of course I will return the money to them and get back the deed you wrote. Don't worry, I didn't use the banknote she gave you."
Chen Anning blushed.
It was rare for Princess Guangling to see her like this and she couldn't help but laugh: "I was not careful and thought they had really changed their ways, but I didn't expect that they also tried to deceive me. I have already sent them back. Nothing will happen in the future. They will no longer be allowed to come to the capital."
Good luck to Chen Anning.
Princess Guangling talked to her for a while before leaving.
Chen Anning watched her retreating back, thinking that the matter was over, but unexpectedly, Wen Huan came over in a hurry two hours later, "Miss Hua and Miss Hua San were kidnapped by bandits."
Chen Anning was slightly startled: "Speak slowly."
"After Princess Guangling knew that the one million taels of silver notes you got from selling Master Xie, she wrote an IOU for one million taels to them, took back the deed you gave them, and arranged for someone to send it to them. They returned to Jincheng County. They were probably angry, so they left the escort arranged by Princess Guangling and left." Wen Huan said anxiously, "As a result, they were killed by bandits who escaped not far from Wuxing County. The robbery is gone."
"I heard that the bandits escaped from the encirclement of the guards and lurked outside Wuxing County to kidnap us and force Mr. Xie to withdraw his troops."
Chen Anning followed her out and asked, "Approximately how many people are there in that group of bandits?"
Wen Huan said: "About twenty or thirty."
Twenty or thirty, not too many.
Chen Anning mounted his horse and was about to set off when Princess Guangling hurried over and said, "Anning, you are not allowed to go!"
Chen Anning pulled the reins of the horse, "Don't worry, Princess, I won't take any risks."
"You're not allowed to go then!" Princess Guangling said seriously, "You haven't recovered from your last injury, so you can't take any more risks!"
After a pause, he said: "I have already arranged for people to go and rescue them soon. Come down quickly!"
Wen Huan didn't want her to take risks, so after hearing Princess Guangling's words, he quickly stepped forward and pulled her down.
Princess Guangling was still worried and asked Chen Anning to follow her.
Chen Anning didn't want to disobey her, so she followed her to a nearby room to wait for news.
After waiting for more than half an hour, no one came back, so Chen Anning excused herself to go to the toilet and left quietly.
When Princess Guangling heard the news, she sighed softly and quickly arranged for a group of people to protect her.
There were not many bandits who kidnapped Huajin and Huarong.
However, relying on their familiarity with the terrain, they still formed a confrontation with the soldiers sent by Princess Guangling to rescue the two.
The soldiers and guards did not dare to attack because of Hua Jin and Hua Rong's status.
The bandits have figured out their thoughts and are confident.
After Chen Anning arrived, he looked at Hua Jin and Hua Rong who were being tied up by the bandits and holding long knives or swords against their necks. They were trembling because of fear. He said directly: "Let them go and leave you a way to live!" "
The bandits said brazenly: "We can let them go, as long as Miss Chen Er is willing to trade her life for her life!"
Chen Anning was disdainful, "Are they worthy?"
Hua Rong immediately stared over.
Chen Anning glanced at her coldly and said again: "I say it again, let them go!"
The bandits tightened their knives and swords against the two men's necks in a show of provocation.
"Very good." Chen Anning said calmly, "Listen to the order! There is no need to worry about the lives of Miss Hua and Miss Hua. Capture them within two cups of tea, regardless of casualties!"
"Chen Anning, how dare you!" Hua Rong screamed.
Without even looking at her, Chen Anning raised the long sword in his hand and swung it down with all his strength.
The guards no longer had any scruples and attacked the bandits with their swords raised.
The bandits didn't expect that Chen Anning would dare to ignore the lives of Hua Jin and Hua Rong, and they couldn't react for a while. Seeing the soldiers rushing towards him, he subconsciously retreated towards the mountain.
Chen Anning seized this critical moment and flew to Hua Jin and Hua Rong like lightning. He killed the bandits who kidnapped Hua Jin with one sword and kicked away the bandits who kidnapped Hua Rong.
Then he grabbed the two of them and flew out of the fighting circle.
As soon as Hua Jin was out of danger, he softened.
Hua Rong is just the opposite.
Seeing Chen Anning trying to untie them, Hua Rong turned away from her hand and screamed: "Get out of here! I don't want you to meddle in other people's business!"
"Okay, this is what you said, don't regret it!" Chen Anning immediately stepped aside and stopped asking.
Hua Rong was going to say a few more sarcastic words, so he looked into the distance with her mocking eyes. Seeing the bandit who was coming to cheer him up, his face suddenly turned pale, and he hurriedly jumped up and down to hide in front of her.
"Chen Anning, I'm going to die, and I won't let you go even if I'm a ghost!" Hua Rong screamed when she saw Chen Anning's indifferent expression.
Chen Anning raised her eyebrows and said, "Sorry, I'm not afraid of ghosts."
"Chen Anning, you vicious woman, hurry up and save me!" Hua Rong, whose hands and feet were tied and her movements were restricted, saw the bandits getting closer and closer. In her panic, Hua Rong, who lost her balance and fell to the ground, screamed in horror. .
Chen Anning took a few steps forward, cut off the rope on Hua Jin's body with two swish swords, and said quietly: "Keep scolding."
"Miss Chen Er, we know we were wrong. Please don't argue with us." As soon as Hua Jin was free, he rushed over to untie Hua Rong.
"It's too late to wake up." Chen Anning said, "Just take care of yourself."
"Miss Chen Er!" Hua Jin quickly pulled the untied Hua Rong and hid behind her, "I know we can't help you, but if something happens to us, my aunt won't say it with her mouth, but she must be sorry for you in her heart. You will have ideas. So whether it is for yourself or for your aunt, you must protect us!"
At this time, you still want to threaten her?
Chen Anning sneered and flew away.
"Miss Chen Er!" Hua Jin was so anxious that he tried to chase her away again, but it was too late. The bandits had already arrived.
