Chapter 130 Want to negotiate a deal with me
Upon hearing this, Ye Sinan's heart trembled, and he looked at Yao Jia deeply, his eyes full of inquiry.
The carriage soon arrived outside Xiaoyao Tower.
Yao Jia straightened her dress and was helped out of the car by Ye Sinan.
The two of them walked towards the gate of Xiaoyao Tower, one in front and one behind.
Outside Xiaoyao Tower, there were guards in black, the atmosphere was tense, and people were watching the fun around.
The appearance of Yao Jia and Ye Sinan immediately attracted the attention of the guards.
A guard raised his weapon and drove the two men away.
"Go, go, go and watch the fun over there. Don't block the way here."
Ye Sinan stepped forward and imitated Bai Huahua's usual behavior, smiling at the guard and said, "My daughter is the owner of Xiaoyao Tower, please let us in."
The guards all looked towards Yao Jia, none of them believed that this delicate-looking girl could be the owner of this brothel that was famous in the south of the Yangtze River.
He raised the sword in his hand and swung it in front of Ye Sinan, ready to drive the man away.
Unexpectedly, Ye Sinan did not move, but stood there quietly with a hint of sarcasm on his lips.
Seeing this, the guard frowned and increased his strength, with the tip of the sword almost touching Ye Sinan's chest.
Yao Jia's heart tightened, she reached out and pulled Ye Sinan over, then kicked the soldier away.
Seeing this, the guards gathered around and pointed their swords at Yao Jia and Ye Sinan.
Yao Jia was not afraid at all. He glanced around coldly and said in a cold voice: "You are blind. You dare to stir up trouble in my territory. Get out of here!"
After Yao Jia finished speaking, she walked straight inside.
The guards were shocked by Yao Jia's amazing aura. They looked at each other, raised their weapons against Yao Jia, and retreated one after another.
At this moment, the door suddenly opened, and a middle-aged man in Taoist robes holding a feather fan walked out.
He waved his feather fan at the guards, signaling them to let him pass.
He walked down the steps himself and bowed slightly to Yao Jia, "Young Pavilion Master Nangong, how are you?"
Yao Jia stopped and sneered at the person who came. "Master Chen really likes to covet other people's things. He even wants to possess my little Xiaoyao Tower."
Chen Ying nodded and said with a smile: "Young Pavilion Master, you have misunderstood. I am only an advisor to Prince Ping now. I am not worthy of the title of "Sir" by the Young Pavilion Master. And I am only here to accompany the Prince for fun this time."
Yao Jia raised her eyebrows and looked at him with a half-smile, "Lord Chen is really popular. He just got fired and became a counselor at Prince Ping's mansion. This seamless transition is really enviable. I wonder if he made the right choice?"
Upon hearing this, a hint of surprise flashed in Chen Ying's eyes. He joined the Emperor's army because he saw that Prince Ping was deeply loved by the Emperor and that the Purple Star Qi was rising from his body.
He hoped that when King Ping ascended the throne in the future, he would be promoted to be the Imperial Master.
But now hearing Yao Jia say this, I feel a little uncertain.
But he quickly concealed his inner thoughts and laughed, "Young Pavilion Master is always joking. Chen Mou never likes gambling, so how can there be any bet?"
Yao Jia didn't waste any more words with him and went straight into Xiaoyao Tower, with Ye Sinan following closely behind.
In the lobby, there was singing and dancing, and beautiful girls were everywhere, just like before.
However, all the guests now had bitter expressions on their faces. No matter how graceful the dancing or melodious the singing on the stage, they were in no mood to enjoy the performance because they were being watched by a group of serious-looking black-clad guards.
As soon as Yao Jia entered, his eyes were fixed on a man in gorgeous clothes in a corner of the venue.
The man sat in the audience with a dignified and elegant demeanor, holding a wine glass and watching the singer perform on the stage without looking away.
Although he is in a busy city, he has his own quiet place. His eyes are deep, as if he can see through everything, but he is not moved by external things.
Yao Jia stared deeply at the man's back and her breath missed a beat.
The future emperor of Da Xia in the previous life, the opponent who fought with her and An He to the end.
Xiao Fengli is physically weak but has a deep mind. He is cruel to others and even crueler to himself. He will do anything to achieve his goals!
Xiao Fengli turned around and looked at Yao Jia, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes.
But he quickly calmed down and regained his previous calmness. He stood up and smiled gently at Yao Jia.
"Young Master, I haven't seen you for a long time. Are you doing well?"
Yao Jia raised her lips, but there was no smile in her eyes, "Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty. I am fine."
Xiao Fengli nodded, turned his gaze to Ye Sinan, and asked, "Who is this?"
"My family's manager." Yao Jia said casually.
A hint of surprise flashed in Xiao Fengli's eyes. "I never thought that this young master, who is so handsome, is just the steward of the young master's family."
When he said this, he kept looking at Yao Jia, showing disbelief.
Yao Jia looked around and did not see Shuanghua and Huaichuan, so she knew that they must have been hidden by Xiao Fengli.
"My Lord, I wonder what brings you to Jiangling City this time?"
Xiao Fengli smiled slightly and said, "Young Pavilion Master, I came here to discuss a deal with you."
"Trade?" Yao Jia chuckled, "If you want to talk about a deal, why do you hide my husband?"
Upon hearing this, Xiao Fengli raised his eyebrows slightly, seeming a little surprised, "Husband? Isn't Young Pavilion Master's husband Nangong Xiulan in Kyoto now? When did he clone himself here?"
Yao Jia looked at him coldly, "Your Highness is used to playing dumb. He knew that I was the head of Baiji, but he sealed up Xiaoyao Tower. Shuanghua is the concubine of my Bai family. I don't believe that with your ability, you don't know this."
Xiao Fengli did not deny it, but smiled without saying anything.
Seeing this, Yao Jia stopped beating around the bush and said bluntly, "Since Your Majesty wants to negotiate a deal, then release the person first. The Bai family has no friendship with Your Majesty, so Your Majesty is not afraid of being criticized for doing this."
Xiao Fengli smiled even more when he heard this. "Young Pavilion Master, you are worrying too much. I did this just to lure you out. I have no ill intentions."
Yao Jia sneered in her heart, but remained calm on her face, "If that's the case, then please release him, Your Majesty."
Xiao Fengli nodded, turned around and said to the guards behind him: "Go and invite Master Liu out."
The guard took the order and left. Not long after, he brought Shuanghua and Huaichuan downstairs.
Seeing that their clothes were not damaged, Yao Jia finally put her mind at ease.
He went forward and examined Shuanghua carefully.
"Did they hurt you?"
With Shuanghua's temper, she will definitely not give in obediently.
Shuanghua gently held Yaojia's hand and comforted her, "I'm fine. I was given a muscle softening powder before, and I've taken the antidote just now."
No wonder!
Turn your eyes to Huaichuan.
Huaichuan quickly said: "I just took the antidote too."
Yao Jia turned around and looked at Xiao Fengli, "Since Your Majesty wants to discuss a deal, why don't we go upstairs and talk?"
Upon hearing this, Xiao Fengli smiled slightly and nodded in agreement.
The two went upstairs one after the other.
Ye Sinan wanted to follow but was stopped by the guards.
Yao Jia turned around and looked at him.
"Stay down there, the prince won't do anything to me."
In an elegant room on the second floor, Yao Jia invited Xiao Fengli to sit down and personally made tea for him.
The aroma of tea filled the air. Xiao Fengli picked up the teacup and took a sip, praising, "Good tea."
Yao Jia smiled faintly, "What kind of deal does the prince want to discuss with me?"
Xiao Fengli put down the teacup in his hand, looked at Yao Jia and said seriously: "I want Young Master Nangong to divorce all her wives and servants and marry me!"
