After the mistress of the Marquis' Mansion was reborn, she divorced and married the prince!

Xiao Taohong was pulled out by Song Mingli's maid.

In the backstage, only the third prince, Song Mingli, and Zi Su were left.

"Are you friends with Qi Liang?" The third prince looked at Song Mingli.

The more he looked at Song Mingli, the more familiar he felt, but he just couldn't remember where he had seen him.

"Thanks to His Royal Highness Prince Jing, I have the honor of meeting Manager Qi." Song Mingli did not forget to pull Chu Yanchen into the water.

The Third Prince narrowed his eyes and said, "But I heard that you wanted to borrow money from His Royal Highness Prince Jing, but you were having trouble asking?"

When Song Mingli heard this, his face tightened.

"No... that's not the case!"

Song Mingli hastily denied, "Your Highness Prince Jing has taken good care of the Song family and me. How could I possibly ask for more..."

The third prince waved his hand, with a hint of pride in his eyes.

"Mrs. Gu, you don't have to explain. I understand."

"How much do you want to borrow? Five thousand taels? Ten thousand taels?"

The third prince took out a few silver bills and placed them on the table beside him.

"This is twenty thousand taels. I'll keep today's events to myself."

"If I hear any rumor that insults me..."

The third prince smiled and pointed at Song Mingli, then at Xiao Taohong's costume.

"Mrs. Gu is a smart person, so I don't need to say more, right?"

Song Mingli's face was tense and her lips were slightly pursed, as if she didn't want to give up, but when her eyes fell on the stack of banknotes, she seemed hesitant.

The third prince was very satisfied with her reaction.

"If you use this money, you don't have to ask Prince Jing for a loan, right?"

"I'm fine with you, why not?"

Song Mingli let out a long sigh and bowed slightly.

"Please also ask the Third Prince to tell Master Zhou not to cause trouble to Xiao Taohong again. Although Song Mingli is a woman, she also knows the words 'faithfulness'."

"Since I promised to protect her, I will protect her to the end."

The third prince curled his lips, turned and left.

Zhou Hui was waiting for the third prince outside.

"Brother-in-law, brother-in-law, you're out! How did you talk..."

The third prince pointed at him with a fierce look.

Zhou Hui was startled and dared not say anything. He followed the third prince into the carriage.

Immediately, the sound of crisp slaps was heard in the carriage.

"The word 'lust' is like a knife hanging over your head!" The third prince said coldly, "If you don't change your lustful nature, you will die under this knife sooner or later!"

"He's just an actor!" Zhou Hui covered his face and whispered aggrievedly, "The other one is the widowed wife of the Marquis's Mansion! A mere Marquis of Changning, so funny..."

The third prince looked at him coldly.

Zhou Hui shut up.

"What is the relationship between the Song family and Prince Jing?"

The Third Prince said sternly, "No one dares to report General Song's affairs now!"

"Anyone who dares to mention it again will be scolded by the emperor! Don't you understand?"

"Prince Jing was injured, and he pleaded with the emperor on behalf of the Song family! The emperor has let the Song family go for his sake!"

"You go and provoke Song Mingli! Huh? You still want her to serve you? Go ahead! If you anger Prince Jing, he will destroy you!"

Zhou Hui suddenly clamped his legs together.

"No, it's not..."

"Fifty thousand taels!" the Third Prince said coldly, "I'll help you settle the matter. You have to pay for it."

Zhou Hui widened his eyes...No!

He didn't even touch Xiao Taohong's hand!

No kiss, no hug! Fifty thousand taels, just gone like that?

Why...why?!

Zhou Hui looked at the third prince with a resentful face... He knew that this brother-in-law would need to spend a lot of money to support his staff and win over people's hearts.

But you can’t kill your brother-in-law like this, right?

"What? I helped you settle the matter, and you don't want to give it to me? You want me to pay for you?" The third prince gave him a cold look.

Zhou Hui quickly apologized with a smile, "What are you talking about? How can I ask you to contribute manpower and money?"

The third prince snorted, "Don't worry, this money won't be given for nothing!"

Zhou Hui became alert when he heard this.

"How to say?"

"Song dares to take this money, she will have to pay the price!" The third prince said coldly, "She is blackmailing!"

"Xiao Taohong is just an actress. You were drunk and flirted with her. It's not a big mistake."

"Song Mingli took the opportunity to blackmail the nobles. If the capital city behaves like her, wouldn't it be a mess?"

"Let her be proud for two days... I will go to my father and report her!"

"When the time comes, don't even mention her! Even Prince Jing will be in trouble!"

Zhou Hui's eyes lit up and he quickly gave a thumbs up, "Great! You are still taller, brother-in-law!"

"Stop flattering! Fifty thousand taels!" said the third prince.

Zhou Hui's mouth twitched... After all, he was the one who was wronged.

It's shameful to spend money and effort! The key is that I haven't gained any advantage!

Song Mingli immediately gave the money she got from the third prince to Qi Liang, plus the money she had previously earned.

"It's enough to buy a shop. The subsequent investment in craftsmen, gold, silver and jade materials will require a sum of money."

"But don't worry, you have to eat one bite at a time and walk one step at a time!"

Song Mingli felt that the future was bright.

Qi Liang took the money, still a little confused. He stared at the money in his hand, then looked at Song Mingli.

"How do you know that the Third Prince would... spend money to ward off disaster?"

"He is a vain man who loves face and is both a powerful and a weakling..." Song Mingli paused, because the third prince's goal is to seize the throne!

He certainly couldn't let his brother-in-law ruin his reputation.

The Third Prince would not resort to violence if the matter could be settled with money.

He and Chu Yanchen, who is reckless and doesn't care about his reputation, are not on the same path.

"No... I mean, how do you know the Third Prince so well?" Qi Liang looked at Song Mingli with clear eyes, "The boss has never dealt with him, right?"

Otherwise, last time, when she disguised herself as a man, the Third Prince would not have failed to notice it at all.

Song Mingli blinked.

Uh... I've never had any dealings with him in my life.

But in the previous life, the Gu family took refuge with the Third Prince, so she knew a little about it.

"What real secrets do Kyoto nobles have?" Song Mingli said vaguely.

"Let's not talk about him anymore. Just buy the shop quickly and I'll go back and tell Qi Xu the good news."

When Qi Liang heard his brother's name, he felt like he was injected with chicken blood and was full of fighting spirit.

"Don't worry, boss. I will try to negotiate a lower price and leave more money for future planning."

Song Mingli nodded.

She is now very confident in Qi Liang's abilities and character.

What's more, his younger brother is still living in his own house, which is also paving the way for his younger brother, so he is not worried that he will not do his best.

Song Mingli returned to the Marquis' Mansion happily.

She didn't have time to tell Qi Xu the good news.

Qi Liang came in a hurry.

Qi Liang, who had been full of fighting spirit before, now looked like a defeated rooster, dejected and depressed.

"What happened? Didn't the deal go through?"

Song Mingli looked at him in surprise, "The other party is raising the price?"

Qi Liang shook his head, "Not really..."

"That is……"

"The shop has been sold. They sold it half a day earlier than us!" Qi Liang clenched his fists and said angrily, "The government is also very efficient. They even changed the deed in half a day!"

Song Mingli was also stunned when he heard this.

Sold? So quickly?

Isn’t it… such an expensive shop that sells so well in Kyoto?

Song Mingli was also hit by frost.

It’s not that they can’t open another shop, but now this one is ready-made and everything is just right!

It was almost within my reach, and even the problem of not having enough money was solved...

In the end, someone intercepted it!

When you're feeling so high and suddenly a basin of cold water is poured down on you, it's a bit...unprepared.

"No, let's go and see, even if we sell it, we can buy it back!"
