Chapter 161: Chapter 161 Someone Is Unlucky
Thinking about the fact that Yun Qianyu had rejected the two beautifying pills, Yun Qianxue and Lu Waner couldn’t help but sneer, ‘What a dumb woman.
His Highness was doing her a big favor offering her this opportunity to acquire the two beautifying pills. How foolish of her to reject the offer.’
Thinking about Yun Qianyu’s scarred face, Yun Qianxue was the most joyous among the two. She couldn’t help but feel a great sense of relief.
Yun Qianyu, Xiao Yechen and all the others in their group had already walked out of the Xuantian Auction House at this time. Many of the attendees had also left the Xuantian Auction House, evident from the fact that only a few carriages were still around.
Yun Qianyu said goodbye to Xiao Yechen and was going to leave for home.
With the Essence Cleansing pill in hand, Yun Qianyu could only think about getting home and cleansing her meridians.
However, just as Yun Qianyu was about to step into the carriage, she heard the sound of approaching footsteps coming from behind her. Realizing that someone was coming toward her, Yun Qianyu turned around and saw Xiao Jiuyuan’s subordinate Bai Yao coming with a few of his men.
Seeing Bai Yao approach, Yun Qianyu immediately had a bad feeling. Sure enough, before she could figure out what it was, she heard Bai Yao say, “Miss Yun, my Lord said that he would like for the nine thousand Liang of silver to be returned before midnight. If you are unable to do so, my Lord said that he would visit you in person.”
Immediately Yun Qianyu’s face darkened, after all, a visit from Xiao Jiuyuan would only mean more trouble. She now wanted nothing more than to get as far away from him as possible.
‘But where am I going to find nine thousand Liang silver to repay him?’
Suddenly, Yun Qianyu’s eyes sparkled as an idea came to her. She turned to Bai Yao and said with a faint smile, “No problem, I’ll send the money I owe to your master on time. I’ll make sure your master is satisfied with it.”
Thinking about the ten sets of jewelry she had that were worth twenty thousand Liang silver, Yun Qianyu figured she’d just send 5 sets of jewelry back to Xiao Jiuyuan. ‘That’ll definitely settle the score.’
In a good mood after figuring out a way to deal with that annoying as*, Yun Qianyu turned to Bai Yao and said, “Go back and tell your master that his money will be delivered on time tonight.”
Outside the carriage, Xiao Yechen came over and said to Bai Yao, “I’ll pay the nine thousand Liang silver that Feather owes to my ninth imperial uncle.”
Immediately after Xiao Yechen said that, Bai Yao turned around and said to Xiao Yechen, feeling sorry for him, “An Prince, my Lord has asked me to inform your Highness to report to the Dragon Scale Army barracks for training immediately.”
“Ah?”
With an ugly expression on his face, Xiao Yechen stared at Bai Yao and asked in a pitiful tone, “Why? I don’t want to go! No!”
“Come on.”
With a wave of his hand, the two men behind Bai Yao came up to grab Xiao Yechen and then they took him away.
Struggling to break free, Xiao Yechen said while being dragged away, “Feather, you be careful now! Since I won’t be in the capital for some time, if there’s anything you need just send a letter to my residence.”
Seeing that Xiao Yechen was forcibly taken away by Bai Yao, Yun Qianyu looked out of the carriage window warily. However, after considering the relationship between Xiao Jiuyuan and Xiao Yechen, she figured Xiao Yechen would probably be fine. She lowered the curtains and then ordered the coachman to drive them back.
The carriage slowly drove away from the Xuantian Auction House. However, after driving for just a short amount of time, suddenly there were screams coming from the front, as well as the frantic neighing of horses.
Beside Yun Qianyu, Little Bell lifted the curtain anxiously and looked out immediately. On the street not far from Xuantian Auction House, a horse-pulled carriage was hurtling through traffic at an incredible speed.
This caused the people in the street to scream and panic. Right then, the carriage exploded with a bang, and the body of the carriage blew into bids and pieces. The people in the carriage were hurled out of the carriage and thrown into the surrounding buildings.
