Super rare beast girl, run away! The emperor's uncle is coming!

Chapter 214 Encountering a Thief on the Road

Zhao Lingling's face darkened, and she clenched her hands tightly at her sides, not even realizing that her nails were digging into her flesh.

Qi Wenyuan's deep black eyes flashed with sarcasm: "I think the young lady of the Shangshu Mansion is not so bad as to default on her debt. Am I right, Miss Zhao?"

"Who said you're going to default on your debt? Someone, bring me the ten thousand taels."

Zhao Lingling called the maid behind her and handed her the silver note.

Qi Yuyao winked at the maid beside her, and the maid understood and immediately stepped forward to take the banknote.

Zhao Lingling's eyes flickered slightly, and a look of suspicion flashed across her face. Why would Qi Yuyao be so close to this little bitch who had just met her for a few days? This didn't seem like...

Doubts arose in her mind...

Since you two have signed a written agreement, let's follow the rules. I, Wang Hai, have something to do, so I'll leave first.

King Xiang stood up and left with a few people.

Mo Hanchuan bowed to Qu Jingyao and said, "I'll take my leave now. We'll meet again later."

After everyone left, Qi Yuyao asked Zhao Lingling like a little animal guarding its food, which raw stones were suitable for exchange?

"This is the jade buckle I carry with me. You can take it and exchange it at the shop at any time. I will ask the servants to greet them." After she finished speaking, she threw the thing towards Qu Jingyao, intending to humiliate her, but unexpectedly she caught it steadily.

"I will go there today. Miss Zhao can go and watch the stone-cutting process. I think you will be interested."

Qu Jingyao raised her eyebrows and said softly.

Zhao Lingling glared at her with resentment, turned around angrily and left with her maid.

The people around her also dispersed as she left.

In the pavilion, Qu Jingyao and Qi Yuyao looked at each other and shrugged.

Qi Wenyuan's bad friends bowed to Qu Jingyao in admiration.

"Young lady, you have great literary talent. We admire you."

"Okay, if you have nothing else, you guys should leave now. I still need to take my sister home."

Qi Wenyuan drove several people away.

Qi Yuyao didn't breathe a sigh of relief until all the irrelevant people left, and then she pulled her hand and complained.

"Yao'er, I wanted to take you out for a walk, but I didn't expect to meet these annoying people."

"It's okay, Auntie. Look, we've gained something today, haven't we? By the way, didn't we say we wanted to try the vegetarian food at Zenfeng Temple? Let's go."

Qu Jingyao took her arm and coaxed her to walk out of the pavilion, not forgetting to wink at her uncle.

Qi Wenyuan smiled helplessly and followed the two of them with his hands behind his back.

Thinking of what happened to Miss Zhao today, I became more alert. The Zhao family relies on their status as royal relatives and are very arrogant and will take revenge for any flaws.

He has to be more cautious recently to prevent these two silly girls from getting into trouble.

Qu Jingyao communicated with Manman in the space as she walked, released a few bees from the space into the bamboo forest, and ordered the "little cuties" to teach the young lady of the Zhao family a lesson so that she would remember it.

"Yao'er, look in the distance. That's the Yanshan Mountains. It's said there are many treasures there, but no one dares to get close because of the snow wolves."

Qi Yuyao pointed at the towering mountain in the distance.

This had long attracted Qu Jingyao's attention, and she was planning to find an opportunity to go there.

A few people returned to the main courtyard of Chanfeng Temple. At this time, the hall was still full of incense and people were coming and going.

I don’t know what my uncle said to the young monk, but I saw him clasp his hands together and bow, then smile and lead a few people towards the dining hall.

At this moment, the spacious dining hall was already full of pilgrims.

The aroma of food that wafted towards her was very tempting. She had not expected that vegetarian food could taste so good.

"How is it? I'm right, right? Come here quickly, Yao'er, this side is spacious."

After a few people sat down, the dining hall began to distribute vegetarian meals, and the young monks brought the food to each table one by one.

At this time, Zhao Lingling brought her maid down the mountain and made arrangements. She had lost all her face this time, and she couldn't just let it go. And that damn King Xiang, it seemed like she would have to go to the palace one day.

The carriage slowly drove down the mountain towards the city of Bianliang.

After noon, Qu Jingyao and his companions came out of Chanfeng Temple. Before getting on the carriage, Qu Jingyao did not forget to glance in the direction of Xiangyan Mountain.

"Yao'er, is there anything else?" Qi Wenyuan saw Yao'er's eyes and worried that she was really attracted by the legend of Yanshan.

"Nothing, little uncle, I just think the scenery of Yanshan is really beautiful."

Qi Wenyuan smiled and looked in that direction, nodding slightly.

"Let's go to the Zhao family shop." As soon as the uncle finished speaking, Qu Jingyao and the other person in the carriage chuckled. This time, the Zhao family suffered a heavy loss.

Qi Wenyuan was asking Yaoer if she wanted him to ask his friends for help. He had a certain eye for selecting raw stones.

Qu Jingyao blinked mysteriously and assured her uncle that she was quite good at selecting raw stones and could guarantee that each one would be top quality.

Although Qi Wenyuan also felt that his niece was exaggerating a bit, she was the treasure of the Qi family after all. No matter what, as long as the girl liked it, it was fine.

The carriage slowly drove towards the direction of Bianliang City. At this time, theirs was the only carriage on the road. The pilgrims in front had already gone down the mountain before noon.

"Yao'er, do you really know how to choose rough stones? I don't even know that."

Qi Yuyao's eyes were shining with admiration, and he pulled her aside to chat.

Qi Wenyuan leaned against the wall of the car and closed his eyes to rest.

"boom"

"call"

In order to hold onto her aunt, Qu Jingyao bumped into the carriage.

The driver outside hurriedly asked about the situation of several masters: "Fourth Young Master, are you okay? Outside... outside... a group of people suddenly appeared."

When Qi Wenyuan heard the coachman's words, he immediately realized that something was wrong. He told his sister to take good care of his niece and asked them to stay in the carriage and not come out.

When Qu Jingyao saw her uncle get off the carriage, she immediately got up and left, but was stopped by her aunt.

"Yao'er, you can't go. Fourth brother and the guards are outside, everything will be fine."

Although she tried to persuade her niece, she still felt uncertain about who it was...

Qi Wenyuan, who was standing in front of the carriage, saw a dozen masked strong men in front of the carriage, holding big knives and shouting at him wildly.

"Brothers, go ahead and stop talking nonsense with him."

"Who are you? How dare you even stop the carriage from Prince Haoshan's Palace?"

Upon seeing this, the two guards immediately appeared beside their master, staring at the group of thieves with cold and cautious eyes.

Soon, the sound of weapons colliding was heard from under the carriage. Qi Yuyao was so scared that her body trembled uncontrollably, but she did not forget to comfort her niece beside her.

"Don't be afraid, Yao'er!"

Qu Jingyao put Xiaohuo in her arms and told him to protect his aunt while she went to help his uncle.

Xiaohuo nodded and nestled obediently in Qi Yuyao's arms.

At this time, Qi Yuyao had no intention of paying attention to Xiaohuo in her arms, and kept shouting to stop her.

"Don't worry, auntie. I'll be fine. Just stay here and don't move."

Then she turned around and instructed the maid with cold eyes to protect her master.

Qu Jingyao flew out of the carriage.
