prince attendant

When Mo Sheng heard His Highness the Crown Prince's words, he smiled and said

"In this world, some people want to get money, some people want to be served, and some people have many other desires. Between people, we exist because of this need. Besides, many people just want to beg for a meal. Eat, so you have to come to the place where you want people, and exchange your own labor for money, which is also the reason for survival. The dark market is just a medium for the exchange of the two, so that people can get what they need. Besides, this is just a dark market It is neither the foundation of business, nor will it rob people for it."

What he said was so high-sounding and seemed very reasonable, but Ji Yi just looked down at the tea in the cup and said

"I heard that you have quite a few children here. Do children of four or five years old know that I asked you to sign a contract of sale?"

Mo Sheng said

"That's what their parents brought here to exchange money, and it's not something worth hiding. Only children are valuable in poor villages."

Before His Royal Highness could speak, Mu Qing hurriedly said

"If your parents want to sell it, will you buy it?"

Mo Sheng raised his head and looked at the speaker, knowing in his heart that the prince and his party came here for his missing sister, a trace of disdain flashed in his heart, his face remained calm, and he just said

"Sir, you shouldn't tell me this, you should tell their parents that since you want to sell someone, don't ask the dark market to take over the business, you have to sell to someone else, there is no big difference."

"You—you!"

Mu Qing felt extremely annoyed, he felt that this man looked gentle, how could he speak such absurd words, people are not grass and trees, how could he talk about the way of buying and selling in such a tone of talking about goods.

But he said it so naturally, as if he didn't think there was anything wrong.

His Royal Highness sighed and said,

"You say so much, it seems that you don't intend to admit that the people here took the child away."

Mo Sheng didn't have any guilty conscience, he just said

"Your Highness, why don't you call the so-called witnesses to confront them in court, so that you can tell clearly who did such a thing. If it is really a person from the dark market, I will not condone it, but such a slanderous charge, the dark market But unbearable."

Ji Yi said lightly

"You talk so much, you're very thirsty thinking about it, why don't you take a break, as this matter has nothing to do with you, just look at it."

A trace of doubt flitted across Mo Sheng's heart, and asked

"What do you think?"

Ji Yi smiled slightly and said

"Of course it was searched, otherwise Bengong brought so many people here to enjoy the scenery?"

Mo Sheng: ...

All the things I said before were all in vain. It seems that His Royal Highness never thought of convincing people with reasoning, or having any strategy of deviousness.

Mo Sheng restrained his smile, but he didn't want to offend the prince, so he said

"Just for the sake of a child, His Highness's move is inappropriate."

Ji Yi smiled, as if hearing some joke, and just said

"No one has ever told me that everything needs to be considered properly."

Saying this, he looked up at the silent young man standing aside, and said

"Honghu, bring these people to search from the beginning. If no one knows about Mu Qing's little sister, then bring out all the five or six-year-old girls here."

Saying this, Ji Yi glanced at Mo Sheng again. It was an extremely ruthless look. Mo Sheng, a middle-aged man in his 30s, was shocked by a teenage child like the prince.

"It's easy to prove your innocence. All the children here are taken out to have a look. If there are none, then you are considered innocent."

After His Royal Highness finished speaking, the young man named Honghu turned around and went out, and said to the servants who followed him

"Not coming out yet?"

He is an extremely ruthless person, and when he speaks, he is very majestic, causing people to follow him away involuntarily. The adult in charge of this place showed an anxious look. He did not expect that His Highness the Crown Prince had no sense of reason at all. When I was about to search, I felt that it was very inappropriate, but let alone His Royal Highness, even if I saw the young man's expression, I didn't dare to say anything against it.

So he could only watch him go out with a group of terrified yamen servants.

Sitting on a chair beside him, Mo Sheng twirled the jade finger on his thumb, seeing that they were really going to search, he sighed

"His Royal Highness, the grass-roots people have a word of advice. The people here are not good people. If you let such a young boy lead people to search without saying hello, I'm afraid you will be blocked. Although I negotiate with the outside world on behalf of the housekeeper, but It is not possible to order the people here, if this young man brings people there to be neglected and humiliated, I am afraid it will be bad."

Ji Yi smiled and said,

"You'd better worry about it first. If something is found out, how will you deal with it?"

Mo Sheng: ...

This is really, I don't know whether to say that His Highness is too confident, or that His Highness does not know the dangers in the world. The people here are not people who surround His Highness all day long to flatter and flatter.

But His Royal Highness didn't care so much, he had nothing to say, and, with a little selfishness in his heart, he felt that His Royal Highness should suffer so much to know what it means to be restrained.

So he sat quietly, while Mu Qing stood aside, but his mind was in a mess. He didn't expect His Royal Highness to find someone so simple and rude, he was afraid of something, and he was anxious about the whereabouts of his sister, so he wanted to tell His Highness that he would follow looking for him, but His Royal Highness only glanced at him and said

"What's the hurry, wait."

After finishing speaking, he could not help but push him on the stool beside him, stuffed him with a teacup, and said very calmly

"Drink tea."

Mu Qing: ...

Mu Qing was holding the teacup, her heart was full of anxiety, she couldn't be in the mood to swallow it.

But he said that Honghu took people out, and those people who were in the dark market, of course, would not be good, and there were people who didn't care much about the prince. , The boy who was sent to eavesdrop came back and reported that the prince had sent a young man to bring people over to search, which aroused people's rebellious hearts, and they wanted to let someone take a look.

That's why when Honghu came to look for someone, many strong men with thick flesh gathered in the courtyard, just to humiliate him.

After Honghu went in, he didn't look at the people in that row, just said

"Go and search."

Although he was fearless, the people behind him were not those who trained with him, but ordinary yamen servants. Seeing the battle in front of him, he didn't dare to make a move at all. , then he smiled, walked over with the blade on his shoulders, looked up and down at Honghu, and said maliciously

"Good boy, kneel down and kowtow to me and call Grandpa—ah!!"

The strong man didn't finish his sentence, and Honghu didn't even look at it. He just took out his sword and hit his jaw with the scabbard before everyone could react. It seemed like a light blow, but a blow Then he let his jaw come off, and then he kicked the person to the ground with a bang. Almost in the blink of an eye, the person rolled on the ground, clutching his jaw and whimpering.
