I was exiled and I took away my supplies and ran away with my whole family.

"What? You said... Qin Xuan is dead?!"

The eldest princess slumped back on her chair, staring blankly into the distance as she recalled what happened that night.

Yes, when she first learned that there was a thief in her house, she was furious and wanted to go into the palace to ask for an audience with His Majesty. It was at that time that Qin Xuan tried to dissuade her, but she roared and had people drag him away.

but……

But since I love him so much, how could anyone really dare to beat him to death with a stick...

She was very playful, and when she saw a good-looking man, she wanted to catch him as her own, but Qin Xuan was one of the few people she really cared about.

He has been by her side since she was very young and has always protected her. The friendship between the two is naturally not comparable to that of men outside.

How could he just die like that...

The people kneeling together below didn't dare to breathe, and they didn't dare to withdraw at this time. They could only kneel there motionless.

It wasn't until the eldest princess came to her senses and waved her hand to signal them all to leave, that those people hurried away as if running for their lives.

Because the eldest princess finally realized that normally no one would dare to beat Qin Xuan to death with a stick, but that was after she gave the order...

Who in the entire princess mansion dares to disobey her orders.

Therefore, Qin Xuan is really dead.

The eldest princess sat there blankly, not moving for a long time, silently digesting the news that made her feel a little painful.

The loss of all the treasures in the warehouse was enough to make her uncomfortable. Unexpectedly, after a few days passed and she finally accepted the result, there was even worse news waiting behind her.

But in fact, because Qin Xuan had been protecting other people, every time the princess wanted to punish someone, he would secretly get someone to lower the punishment.

So this time, he was protected in turn.

Those people disobeyed the princess's will and let him go. They said that after such a big thing happened, the princess would have no time to ask him. When he thought about it, the worst he could say was that the body had been thrown into a mass grave and was picked up by wild dogs. There are no remains of the gnawed corpses.

So Qin Xuan said goodbye to those brothers, took nothing with him, and left the capital alone, which made people have no nostalgia.

Now several days have passed, and even if the eldest princess wants to look for her, there is nowhere to look for her. She can only show her sadness by herself.

After knowing that she could go to the city to buy things the next day, Shen Xingmian began to make plans in her mind. She had inquired about it, and at times like this, they would usually choose a few "sensible" prisoners to go to the city with the officials.

As for how to be "sensible", Shen Xingmian certainly knows.

She had to join the purchasing team.

I rummaged through the space and found boxes of silver ingots, no broken silver at all.

Ah this...

No, if you think about it carefully, she didn't even spare the backyard, so how could she not have any scattered silver coins? Including my own home, there are whole boxes in the warehouse, but everyone has their own small vault.

There cannot be only big silver ingots.

Although she has many, many, many, many, many, many, many, many, but if you give out even one tablet for free, you are cutting her flesh!

it hurts!

Shen Xingmian said goodbye to her NPC-like official brother, and returned to her family. Just as the meal was ready, she rummaged through the space with her consciousness while eating.

Then, I finally found a pile of broken silver among the packages packed by the housekeeper, and of course, there were also many silver notes.

The housekeeper is indeed very capable. The banknotes don't look thick, but they are all of large amounts, and several are even worth one thousand taels.

It doesn't sound like much, but for the General's Mansion, which has always been financially strapped, it's already a lot of money.

It can also be seen from this that grandpa really trusts him.

Shen Xingmian carefully picked out a few pieces of broken silver, barely scraping together five taels, and put them into a separate purse, planning to go there later to find a way out.

The first time I paid a bribe, to be honest, I was a little nervous.

I don’t know if five taels is enough. Although she has a lot, as a professional miser, it is too painful to pay out.

And looking at these prisoners, none of them look like big spenders. Five taels... feels like enough.

She had gone to find out about the prices here. Even though the money she took away came in boxes, in fact, for the living standards of ordinary people, five taels was enough to feed a large family for a year.

That's why those who bury a lot of money underground are even more hateful. Thinking of this, she was a little angry that she didn't even want to use the five taels of silver to get an official job.

however……

People have to bow their heads under the roof.

After silently bidding farewell to her little purse worth five taels, Shen Xingmian went to find the head official. Before setting off, she also communicated with three people who knew the secret.

Don't act on your own initiative.

She first said hello to the officials who were gathered around for lunch, and after learning the location of the leader of the officials, she went to the carriage.

Shen Xingmian said politely: "Master Chai, I wonder if I can be counted among the people who will go to the city to buy things tomorrow. I have prepared some small gifts. It's not respectful."

She had just learned these ancient polite words from her grandfather, and she didn't know if she remembered them correctly or if there were any omissions.

A hand stretched out directly from the carriage, not polite at all.

Shen Xingmian quickly put the small purse on that hand, and saw the man weighing it, and said rather disgustedly: "That little girl from the Shen family who knows some medical skills, isn't she? Seeing as you are somewhat useful, Come on, I’ll take you one.”

Shen Xingmian felt angry because of what he said, but she still smiled and thanked her warmly: "Thank you very much, Mr. Cha. I'm going to tell my family the good news, so I won't disturb your rest!"

After saying that, he quickly ran away.

On the way back, she was still thinking that it turns out that physical pretense can be quite fatal. Fortunately, she knew that this person was an official. If she didn't know, she would have thought that he was a nobleman from Tianhuang.

The score is quite impressive.

It almost embarrassed her.

When she returned, she happened to catch up with the team to start again. Shen Xingmian thought blankly, why on earth did she run back? Couldn't she wait in front?

So stupid, I walked a section of the road twice.

What a waste!

But seeing the eager eyes of her father and mother, she felt that it was worth running back. After all, there were so many people caring about her.

I told my family about the results, and then asked them what they wanted to buy. After discussing it, I summarized it and handed it to her tomorrow.

After explaining, she went to the donkey cart, guessing that grandpa and the child would also have a lot of needs. Then, she saw the three silent people in the donkey cart.

How should I put it, the atmosphere seemed a bit awkward.

There is one more person in the world between two people, and they are still unfamiliar with each other. Maybe the society will feel pressure.
