When Xu Donglin heard that the princess wanted him to send her off, he was so scared that he didn't dare to look at His Highness. He felt that he had stolen something from His Highness. It was too scary.
"Your Highness, if you go over, I might not be able to enter that door." Han Yunxi teased Long Fei Ye.
Although it was a joke, Long Fei Ye still understood her meaning. Ning Cheng didn't publicize the hostage situation, so it was even more impossible for her to publicize her relationship with Long Fei Ye in the Di Clan. Therefore, Han Yunxi still had plenty of room to explain.
If Long Fei Ye wanted to send her over, it would definitely arouse the Di Clan's hostility. At that time, she would be in a difficult position.
Long Fei Ye was silent for a long time before saying Coldly, "Xu Donglin, you must send her in."
"Yes!" Xu Donglin really didn't dare to raise his head.
Long Fei Ye watched Han Yunxi leave before instructing the Shadow Guard beside him, "Send a message to Chu Tianyin. Tell him that this Crown Prince is at the Three-Way Black Market. Tell him to come see me."
Saying that he wanted to go to Western Zhou was just to fool around with Han Yunxi on a whim. He definitely wouldn't leave the Three-Way Black Market for the next ten days. As for whether he would sneak into Myriad Merchant Hall, that was hard to say.
It was already evening. The crisis in Myriad Kindness Hall's gambling house and auction house didn't subside because of Ning Jing's appearance. This was because Golden Wing Palace unexpectedly exposed the shady dealings of the black market's auction house and gambling house at this critical juncture. Golden Wing Palace even sent a few dealers to sit across from Thousand Gold Hall and perform slow-motion tricks in public. In just a short while, it attracted countless spectators.
This kind of shameless behavior undoubtedly made it impossible for Ning Jing and the others to solve the problem. Even the stupidest person could guess that Golden Wing Palace was the mastermind behind this crisis. However, even the smartest person couldn't figure out what kind of deep hatred Golden Wing Palace and Myriad Merchant Hall had for them to destroy Myriad Merchant Hall at all costs!
Among the three major forces of the Three-Way Black Market, Myriad Merchant Hall was the most dependent on the casino and auction house.
On her way from East Origin Hall to Myriad Merchant Hall, Han Yunxi had also heard about the commotion that was happening at Myriad Merchant Hall. She sat in a wheelchair and wore a mask in case she was recognized on the road.
Many places were bustling with activity, but the entrance to Myriad Merchant Hall's main hall was deserted. Xu Donglin pushed her to the side door and stopped. He went up to knock on the door.
Just as Xu Donglin was about to knock, the door suddenly opened. Deacon Jin was standing inside. Xu Donglin recognized him at a glance.
"Deacon Jin, who's in charge of Myriad Merchant Hall now?" Xu Donglin asked seriously. He felt that when he returned later, His Highness would definitely ask about the details here. No matter what, he had to get the steward of Myriad Merchant Hall to come out and receive him.
Deacon Jin sized him up, then said Coldly, "Scram!"
Deacon Jin was definitely the most furious person in the entire Three-Way Black Market right now. If the Three-Way Black Market's casino business was ruined, then his bank could basically close down as well.
His mood was as gloomy as the sky before a storm.
He had come to look for Uncle Cheng and the Great Elder, but was told that they were still at the casino. He was about to rush over and check on the situation.
Xu Donglin was no pushover. "How can you say that? Do you know who she is? "
Xu Donglin stepped aside, wanting to let Deacon Jin see the Princess. Who knew that Deacon Jin would take advantage of the moment he stepped aside to walk out and slam the door behind him.
Xu Donglin naturally could not let the Di Clan bully him, much less allow the Di Clan to be so impudent in front of the Princess. He was about to make a move, but Han Yunxi stopped him with a look.
"Deacon Jin, I have a favor to ask. I hope you can make it easy for me," Han Yunxi said politely.
Deacon Jin naturally sensed that Xu Donglin was about to make a move behind his back. He sized up Han Yunxi, but did not recognize Han Yunxi as the spectator at the gambling table a few days ago. He also did not know Han Yunxi's identity.
"I don't know you." Beneath the gambling table, Deacon Jin was actually not a polite person.
"It's fine as long as I know Ning Cheng. It's inconvenient for me to move around, so I'll have to trouble you to send me inside," Han Yunxi said politely. "I have something to discuss with you."
On the way to Blacktower, she and Long Fei Ye had learned about Deacon Jin's origins. She knew that Deacon Jin had been sold to Myriad Merchant Hall as a slave when he was young.
Since Myriad Merchant Hall was the treasury of Cloud Realm Trade Consortium, which in turn was the Di Clan's money bag, then taking down the people here would be the foundation of her control over the Di Clan. If she wanted to control Myriad Merchant Hall, she had to find someone to understand the details that the elders were unwilling to tell her. Deacon Jin was a very good candidate. Since she'd bumped into him here, she could ask him a few questions.
Deacon Jin didn't answer Han Yunxi, but gave a cold laugh before turning to leave. Ning Cheng's luck with women wasn't any worse than his, especially in the black market. Many women who'd met Ning Cheng once often came knocking on his door, but most of them never made it past his doors.
Seeing Deacon Jin's rudeness, Xu Donglin immediately flew in front of him to block his way. "What are you laughing at? Do you know who she is?! "
Deacon Jin's eyes flashed with impatience. He'd seen plenty of women come knocking on his door to beg him, but he'd never seen one with a guard to stop him. If he wasn't wrong, this guard's martial arts skills must be impressive!
Deacon Jin usually ignored women like this, but he was in a bad mood today. Seeing Xu Donglin's strength made him Cold. "You want to climb into Ning Cheng's bed with a broken leg? Go back and dream on!"
Reality proved that the quiet and reserved Deacon Jin was just as mean as a woman when he turned.
Han Yunxi stared blankly …
Xu Donglin was so angry that he drew his sword. If His Highness heard this, Deacon Jin would probably be dismembered by five horses. As an escort, he wouldn't be able to escape the blame.
Although Han Yunxi was wearing a mask, Uncle Cheng still recognized her at a glance. At this time, Han Yunxi was the only one who'd come to the door in a wheelchair.
When Deacon Jin saw Xu Donglin draw his sword, he also wanted to draw his dagger. However, at this moment, he heard Ning Jing's voice.
Ning Jing stood not far away and called out, "Han Yunxi!"
Deacon Jin only felt that this name was very familiar, but he couldn't remember who it was. Ning Jing quickly ran in front of Han Yunxi. "Leng Sheng, Han Yunxi, you hurt my brother!"
Although Han Yunxi was wearing a mask, Ning Jing knew from the guards that she was in a wheelchair, so her guess was right.
At this moment, Deacon Jin finally remembered who "Han Yunxi" was. He slowly turned his head to look at Han Yunxi and was also stunned.
Very quickly, the corners of his mouth started to twitch, as if he wanted to say something but couldn't.
So … so this woman wasn't here to throw herself into Ning Cheng's arms, but Ning Cheng's … master!
Han Yunxi glanced at Deacon Jin from bottom to top, then ignored him and looked towards Ning Jing.
Deacon Jin felt a chill run down his spine. It was incomparably terrifying. From what he knew, Han Yunxi was a vengeful woman who never suffered a loss. Her methods were ruthless, and her poison skills were cruel.
Since she was Ning Cheng's master, that meant that his indenture contract ultimately belonged to her.
Oh dear, he seemed to have offended her.
Han Yunxi looked at the furious Ning Jing with a complicated expression.
"Tell me, were you the one who hurt my brother? What kind of good intentions do you have? Why are you with Long Fei Ye? Are you helping Long Fei Ye deal with Bai Yanqing? Han Yunxi, why are you … "
Before Ning Jing could finish her questioning, Han Yunxi interrupted her and asked in a low voice, "Ning Jing, are you in charge of the Di Clan now?"
Ning Jing was about to answer when Han Yunxi gave her a meaningful look. Ning Jing suddenly quieted down. The anger in her heart seemed to have frozen like the surrounding air.
What did Han Yunxi mean by that look?
What did she mean by asking that question just now?
"If you're in charge, I think I should talk to you about the Tang Sect matter," Han Yunxi said again.
As soon as she said that, Ning Jing immediately understood the meaning of Han Yunxi's gaze. Han Yunxi was hinting that she had no right to be in charge of the Di Clan because she had betrayed the Di Clan on the Tang Sect matter!
Ning Jing stared fixedly at Han Yunxi. She felt guilty, resentful, and indignant!
What right did Han Yunxi have to threaten her like this? Han Yunxi knew the relationship between the Tang Sect and Long Fei Ye better than she did. How could Han Yunxi still have the face to come back? As the princess of Western Qin, where was her sense of responsibility and shame?
"You …" Ning Jing wanted to say something but stopped. She calmly walked in front of Han Yunxi and leaned down. She put her hands on the back of the wheelchair and her lips were almost touching Han Yunxi's ear. "Your Highness, how do you want to talk to me about the Tang Sect matter?"
Deacon Jin and Xu Donglin looked at them with different expressions. The smell of gunpowder between the two women was very strong.
A battle between women was scary, let alone two such strong women. Even Deacon Jin was interested. He wanted to find out why Ning Jing dared to challenge the princess of Western Qin.
Han Yunxi recalled how Ning Jing had scolded her in Medical City and saw the resentment and provocation in Ning Jing's eyes. She couldn't help but think of her beautiful appearance when she married Tang Li in a wedding dress.
She couldn't understand why Ning Jing didn't tell Ning Cheng about the relationship between the Tang Sect and Long Fei Ye when they were in Medical City. She clearly had a chance! She had asked Long Fei Ye this question before. Long Fei Ye asked Tang Li, and Tang Li said that Ning Jing wanted to escape from the Di Clan for her own selfish reasons.
Han Yunxi didn't know if Tang Li's statement was his own speculation or if it was from Ning Jing.
She didn't believe that a stubborn and fierce woman like Ning Jing would betray the Di Clan for her own selfish reasons. What exactly was this "selfishness"?
Why did she want to escape from the Di Clan? According to Han Yunxi's understanding, Ning Jing was the most outstanding woman in the Di Clan.
Ning Jing asked Han Yunxi this question. Han Yunxi could hear the sarcasm and questioning in Ning Jing's tone.
"Ning Jing, are you going to discuss Tang Li with me at the gate?" Han Yunxi asked seriously.
Ning Jing snorted and pushed Han Yunxi's wheelchair away without saying a word. She pushed her into the gate.
Han Yunxi waved her hand to signal Xu Donglin to leave. Deacon Jin saw this and didn't have time to ask Ning Jing about the casino. He took the opportunity to slip away.
After entering the gate, Han Yunxi began to probe. "Where's Tang Li? Did you lock him up? Are you going to use Tang Li to threaten the Tang Sect? "
Ning Jing avoided the topic and asked, "Han Yunxi, as the princess of Western Qin, not only did you hide the Tang Sect's matter, but you also fooled around with Long Fei Ye and were used by Long Fei Ye. If I were you, I wouldn't have come! What are you doing here? "
