Lord, the princess is beautiful and fierce

Chapter 80 A Thorn
"he…"

Liu Shen's eyes were red: "It's tied behind the carriage, dragged all the way back, its legs are going to be worn out..."

Liu Shen also took the opportunity to take a sneak peek at the meal delivery, and he will never forget that glance.

The peasants never thought that a horse would be treated like this when it was frightened. It was also the first time for them to truly feel the coercion of power, and to truly feel that a human life is not as good as a horse...

"Boom!" The sound of the bowl breaking.

The door was suddenly opened, and Aunt Cai ran in, crying: "Xiao Shen, what you said is true? Your elder brother..."

Seeing his old mother, Liu Shen finally nodded while holding back his tears.

In the next second, Aunt Cai rolled her eyes and passed out.

Shi Luo blinked, and Aunt Cai disappeared. She ran over in a hurry, just in time to see Aunt Cai fainted. She hurriedly helped her up, and placed her on the bed with Liu Shen.

Several people are preoccupied.

Shi Luo was also stunned when he heard Liu Dazhu's situation.

Wei Congxi said: "His life cannot be saved!"

Shi Luo was startled, and Liu Shen suddenly raised his head.

Wei Congxi said: "Princess Huining is notoriously domineering and domineering. Those who offend her will end badly, even high-ranking officials and nobles, not to mention Liu Dazhu is just an ordinary citizen!"

Wei Congxi didn't continue talking.

Shi Luo was also in a hurry. She remembered the few times she met Liu Dazhu a few times ago. Although he was not talkative, he was enthusiastic after all. Who would have thought that he was going to get married, but now he encountered such a thing...

When Liu Shen heard the words "Princess Huining", he froze in place.

That's a princess, a high-ranking princess, if you offend her, the eldest brother is really hopeless...

"Is there no other way?" Shi Luo asked unwillingly.

Wei Congxi lowered her eyes and shook her head.

Shi Luo also knew that it was difficult for them to protect themselves now, let alone protect others.

Liu Shen slumped on the chair powerlessly, like a puppet whose soul had been drained, his face pale.

Shi Luo looked at Liu Shen, then at Aunt Cai, and then asked Wei Congxi.

"Is there really no way?"

Wei Congxi thought for a while, and finally said: "There is one, but we can't do it now!"

Shi Luo was taken aback.

Wei Congxi said: "Xu Chang is the great eunuch of Concubine Zhou, and she is deeply trusted by Concubine Zhou. Although Li Ruyan is a princess, she is also afraid of him. Therefore, if you want to save Liu Dazhu, you must start with Xu Chang. Xu Chang is a eunuch and doesn't like women. , but he likes money!"

When Shi Luo heard that there was something interesting, he immediately asked, "How much does it cost?"

Wei Congxi thought for a while before saying, "At least 1000 taels!"

Liu Shen gasped, 1000 taels, even if he didn't eat or drink all his life, he wouldn't be able to earn so much money!
He bowed his head, desperate. Before, he was ambitious and thought that he could make a career, but now it seems that he is too ridiculous.

Shi Luo said: "I can take out 500 taels now, and I will think of other ways!"

She knew that Wei Congxi's money must not be moved, if it was moved, it would be easy to be found out, causing trouble to the upper body, that would not be helping others, but harming others and herself.

When Liu Shen heard that Shi Luo had 500 taels and was willing to take it out, he was shocked speechless.

"How much do you have?" Shi Luo asked.

Liu Shen wiped away his tears and said, "I only have 60 taels. Even if the family land is sold, I can only make up 100 taels at most!"

Shi Luo frowned. If the land and real estate were sold, how would Mrs. Cai's family live?
Putting this aside, there is still a shortfall of 400 taels.

"Can't it be less?" She looked at Wei Congxi.

Wei Congxi shook her head: "1000 taels is a lot to us, but it is nothing to Xu Chang. Whether it will work or not is up for debate!"

After finishing speaking, he said again: "With money, you still need a middleman who can talk to Xu Chang!"

Liu Shen said: "I can go and beg Shopkeeper Tong!"

After speaking, his eyes lit up: "By the way, I can go to shopkeeper Tong to borrow money!"

After finishing speaking, he turned around and ran away regardless.

Shi Luo looked at his back, then at Aunt Cai on the bed, feeling uncomfortable.

I don't have a good impression of Li Ruyan in my heart. How good can a princess who treats human life as nothing, not to mention, the princess has such a character, which must have been cultivated since childhood. From this, it can be seen that Concubine Zhou Gui is not a good person.

Wei Congxi saw what she was thinking, and said: "Life and death!"

Shi Luo didn't think so, she stood up and looked into Wei Congxi's eyes: "Life or death is up to you!"

Wei Congxi was startled, looked at her firm eyes, and couldn't help asking: "Then you can find a way to raise money without arousing suspicion?"

Shi Luo nodded: "I thought of a person, a fat, fat sheep!"

"Who?"

Wei Congxi had a bad feeling.

Shi Luo had already stood up, took out a piece of paper from the room and handed it to him.

Wei Congxi looked at it, and there were a few recipes, which should have been written to shopkeeper Jiang last time.

"Didn't shopkeeper Jiang return to Lanjing?" Wei Congxi was startled after asking, squinting at Shi Luo, he probably guessed what she was going to do.

"Have you figured it out? Once this matter is done, it will cause fire!"

Shi Luo said, "I can't watch an innocent person die without saving him."

What's more, she and Aunt Cai have a good friendship. She understands the feeling of being powerless as an ordinary person watching her relatives die.

"You are really kind!" Wei Congxi said.

Shi Luo approached and looked into his eyes: "Aren't you also planning to save someone, if not, you just said that there is no way, right?"

Wei Congxi pulled the corners of her mouth and smiled: "I don't admit it!"

"It's okay, Prince Wei is just waiting to receive the fruits of victory!"

When Wei Congxi thought about it, she probably understood that he had taken a fancy to the Liu family. Mrs. Cai and the others were locals, they were familiar with the local environment, and they knew many neighbors. Wei Congxi urgently needed such a person to do things for her, and Liu Shen This person is very clever and thoughtful, if he is won over, it will definitely be a great help, and it will be much more convenient for the collection and production of saltpeter on Wolf Mountain.

and…

Shi Luo always felt that Wei Congxi had other ideas.

As for Shi Luo, as she said, regardless of interests, she can't just watch Liu Dazhu die without saving her. She is a modern person, and she can't treat human life like nothing.

Wei Congxi looked at Shi Luo and smiled: "Shi Luo, you understand me very well!"

"I'll take it as if you're praising me!"

Shi Luo looked outside the door: "It would be great if Second Brother Liu could really borrow money. I really don't want to have anything to do with that Zhou Siyi. That person has violent tendencies. It's really scary!"

Wei Congxi looked at her: "At this juncture, Zhou Siyi won't do business with you!"

Shi Luo was startled, but then she felt the same, she said with a bitter face, "Then what should I do?"

Not long ago, she had an argument with Zhou Siyi.

Seeing Shi Luo like this, Wei Congxi secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Shi Luo didn't seem to have any ideas about Zhou Siyi, but Zhou Siyi was not innocent.

Wei Congxi thinks that this is the best thing that can't be obtained.

No matter what the reasons were for Zhou Siyi's resignation at the beginning, he had a thorn in Shi Luo's heart. Recently, Shi Luo had a tough attitude towards him. The more he was like this, the more Zhou Siyi couldn't let it go.

Wei Congxi looked at Shi Luo's figure with lowered eyes, lowered her head and stopped talking.
