Escape from the famine at the beginning: I rely on space to spoil Lord Shoufu

Chapter 365

"Then you just wait a little longer, they are going to bring people."

Tao Xi casually picked up a glass of juice and took a sip, then sat there casually waiting for someone.

She was not in a hurry, but the second prince was a little surprised. He gulped down a bowl of wine and asked:

"County Lord, aren't you afraid that I will go back on my word?"

"This is my place."

Tao Xi played with the juice cup in front of him with his fingertips, "If the second prince wants to play tricks, it's just another prisoner."

Her understated but confident words made the second prince's hand holding the wine glass pause slightly, and he looked serious.

"The county owner seems a little too confident."

"is it?"

Tao Xi smiled lightly, and Qing Zhi secretly sighed on one side, it really was a master's move, and the photos were all swords and swords.

The corners of Tao Xi's lips raised slightly, "If it weren't for this confidence, the fifth prince would not have become a prisoner, are you right? The second prince."

Her almost provocative words made the second prince almost crush the wine glass in his hand, he gritted his teeth and said:

"That's the fifth idiot!"

"The fifth prince will be sad when he hears this, right?"

Tao Xi raised her eyebrows and looked out following her line of sight. The second prince saw the fifth prince standing at the door with a pale complexion.

And Jian Shiming and Gu Yan stood beside the Fifth Prince, obviously not giving him any chance to escape.

"It turns out that in the second brother's heart, the temple is a fool."

The second prince snorted mockingly, he hadn't seen him for a while, he seemed much older.

During this period of time, he has been thinking about the matter of his father abandoning him, but everyone who tortured him is not like a ghost or a ghost.

"Fifth brother!"

The second prince stood up abruptly, and approached him pretendingly, "Why are you so haggard, did they torture you?"

After that, he glared at Tao Xi angrily, "Although my fifth younger brother is a prisoner, he is also the prince of Xuanyao Kingdom. Isn't it too much for you?"

"We have no penchant for mistreating captives."

Tao Xi also put down the juice cup in his hand, got up and walked towards Jian Shiming, who also walked towards the fifth prince.

The second prince had grief in his eyes, "Fifth Brother, I'm sorry, we're late."

"Second brother."

The fifth prince didn't look at him, with complicated emotions in his heart, but there was a trace of true feelings in his eyes.

Although he came late, at least his father and the others did not give up on him.

But in the next second, the fifth prince's eyes widened suddenly, and it turned out that the dagger in the second prince's hand stabbed at him.

Gu Yan, who had expected it for a long time, would directly hold the second prince's wrist, and the two quickly started fighting, and the people Tao Xi had arranged earlier also stepped forward to subdue the second prince.

The people brought by the second prince also stepped forward to help, and the scene was a bit chaotic for a while.

And Tao Xi and Jian Shiming stood in front of the fifth prince, who had a pale face.

"You said if you died here, would it be a good thing for Xuan Yaoguo?"

Tao Xi's heart-wrenching words made the Fifth Prince feel as if he was going to be approved, he clenched his fists, "The county magistrate invited me here to watch such a play, right?"

"It seems that you are not stupid."

Jian Shiming snorted, making the fifth prince's face even more ugly, and he gritted his teeth.

"Let's talk about it."

"We will send you out of Dafeng safely, and the ransom must be paid."

Tao Xi stated the purpose, if the fifth prince died in Dafeng, it would undoubtedly give Xuan Yao a reason to go to war.

At that time, Taoxi will really have nothing to do with fetching water from a bamboo basket.

But...the fifth prince is different when he is alive. Now that he knows the intention of the second prince, the two parties will definitely fight after returning.

Taoxi and the others not only got the ransom, but also lost the pressure of the barbarians to invade, so they could kill two birds with one stone.

"It's that simple?"

The fifth prince didn't believe it. He always thought that Tao Xi had other purposes, because the ransom was nothing compared to his life.

Tao Xi rolled his eyes angrily, "Think about it, what else can you afford now?"

Fifth Prince: ...

Being poked by Tao Xi again, he was so angry that his heart ached. Could this woman be any worse?

"Okay, I promise you."

The fifth prince gritted his teeth and agreed, this was the best choice for him, if he died in Dafeng, wouldn't his father and second brother be happy?
The two reached an agreement, and Gu Yan had already captured him. The second prince underestimated Tao Xi and Gu Yan, and his face was livid at the moment.

"You are really my good second brother."

The fifth prince sneered, stopped looking at him, and found a seat to sit down.

The second prince smiled embarrassingly, "This palace was just a joke with the fifth younger brother, don't take it to heart, county lord."

"Of course I don't mind."

Tao Xi waved his hand, and the people below opened the boxes brought by the second prince one by one. Fortunately, he didn't dare to play tricks on this point.

After all, if he doesn't take the money, Tao Xi won't let him in.

"Take it away."

Qing Zhi immediately ordered someone to carry the silver away, seeing the full amount of gold and silver being carried away, the second prince frowned in distress.

"Do not……"

"The second prince won't go back on his word, right? I've brought everyone."

Tao Xi's half-smile made the second prince froze, and he had no choice but to admit defeat, but he didn't intend to take the gold back.

What the father meant was that if he couldn't take it back, he would have to let the fifth younger brother die in Dafeng, and he must not be allowed to return to Xuanyao country to discredit him!
Even if he can't do it now, he will never give up.

"Nothing."

Tao Xi was very satisfied with his denial, and the two had dinner with them. Before leaving, Jian Shiming said something.

"The lady has already arranged a residence for you, and they are all taken care of by someone. You can leave Yun County tomorrow."

Separated by someone, this is not to give the second prince a chance to attack, he is very angry, but the fifth prince is quite happy.

At least he knew that there would be no danger today, but it would be hard to say if he left Yun County.

When the two were taken away, Gu Yan snorted, "Brothers fought for that position, I might as well be an ordinary person."

"Isn't our Dafeng the same?"

Tao Xi knew that it was always like this in ancient times that nine sons seized the throne, so she always upheld the principle of being wise and protecting one's life.

Gu Yan was choked, and he twitched speechlessly, "Sister-in-law is right, I'm destined to be uneasy tonight, I'd better go and watch it."

"it is good."

Tao Xi didn't object, and she and Jian Shiming went back to the county lord's mansion happily, and they had a good rest.

But when seeing Gu Yan the next day, Jian Shiming couldn't help complaining, "Your eye circles are all black."

"It wasn't for Dafeng, the unlucky Fifth Prince was assassinated again."

Gu Yan only felt a headache, if he hadn't been thinking about the stuttering of the county lord's mansion, he wouldn't have had to spend so much trouble.

"Hard work, Brother Gu."

Jian Shiming expressed his understanding, and let Qing Zhi eat Gu Yan's favorite food. Qing Zhi and Tao Xi learned a few things.

When he is not on the island on weekdays, he will cook delicious food for them himself, and Gu Yan is also thinking about the food she cooked.
