The Chen brothers nodded. They could tell that Shen Miao was asking them to leave. They did not intend to linger and stood up. Chen Yueshan said, “After we can rescue our sister, Miss Shen, you will be our benefactor. If you need our help in the future, the Chen family will naturally not decline. Thank you for what you did this time.” With that, he picked up his sword and left in a hurry.
Ji Yushu stared at Shen Miao, more impressed by her performance today. There were many capable people in the martial world, and the Chen family was considered a very influential family. Moreover, this was supposed to be a fair trade, but Shen Miao actually made herself the benefactor of the Chen family with just a few words. The Chen brothers were also very polite to Shen Miao. Just as the two brothers said, if Shen Miao had any difficulties in the future, the Chen family would help her. It was not easy to get close to the Chen family.
“Shopkeeper Ji, now we can talk about the deal between us.” Shen Miao looked at him.
“I’ve already thought about the conditions you offered that day.” Ji Yushu rubbed his chin pensively and pretended to be in a difficult position. “Actually, what you wanna do is too risky. If it succeeds, everyone will be happy. However, if it’s discovered one day, my Exiled Immortal Pawnshop will have to shut down. My head will be chopped off too. As for the staff, they will all die. Therefore, I don’t think it’s a fair deal.”
Shen Miao glanced at him flatly and said, “In that case, I guess we’re not going to make the deal work. I understand. Sorry for disturbing you for so long. Goodbye.”
Before Ji Yushu could finish his words, he saw that Shen Miao was about to leave. He instantly panicked and quickly said, “Hey, hey, hey, I’m not done speaking yet. Why are girls nowadays so impatient? Miss Shen, although I think this will put my life in danger, when I saw you for the first time, I felt that the two of us are very fated. I’m sure men will agree to any request from a beautiful girl like you. I can’t bear to see a beauty getting sad. If I don’t do this business with you, I think you’ll be unhappy. In order to make you happy, I don’t mind risking my life… So, I agree.”
In the secret room on the other side, after hearing Ji Yushu’s extremely cheesy words, Gao Yang couldn’t help but look at Xie Jingxing. “Is he alright? How dare he flirt with such a vicious woman?”
Xie Jingxing smirked. “He’s simply courting death.”
Shen Miao sat back down calmly and said, “In that case, I’ll tell Shopkeeper Ji about my plan.”
Ji Yushu immediately sat up straight. “Alright, Miss Shen. Please, I’m all ears.”
“Now, everyone in Ming Qi knows that ten years ago, when His Majesty was assassinated, Prince Yu saved His Majesty from the assassin, which caused him to be crippled. However, the assassin escaped.”
“That’s right.”
Shen Miao smiled. “The rumor I want you to spread is very simple. Here it goes – Recently, Prince Yu killed a personal guard of his. That personal guard happened to look very similar to that assassin ten years ago, other than being a little old.”
“This…” Ji Yushu was stunned and almost dropped the teacup in his hand.
“Shopkeeper Ji, please make sure the rumor reaches the ears of the emperor.” Shen Miao smiled.
“Is this rumor real or fake?” Ji Yushu asked tentatively.
“In any case, Shopkeeper Ji, all you need to do is make the rumor real,” Shen Miao said with a faint smile.
