I traveled through time with my best friend.

Chapter 191 Play on your knees.

The two servants did not dare to say anything. With the situation just now, if anyone tried to confront them head-on, they would be risking their lives. So they both valued their lives.

The madam sat on a stool beside her, holding her waist with lingering fear, muttering to herself, "Princess Jiahe is the most favored sister of the current emperor, and even the queen mother loves her the most. If she breaks into the princess's mansion, it will be a dead end."

"Who is going to die?" Jiang Xue suddenly appeared at the door.

The madam was startled, and hurriedly patted her chest to comfort herself, looking at Jiang Xue and said, "Miss, we don't receive customers during the day."

Jiang Xue stepped in with her hands behind her back, staring at the madam with a smile in her eyes.

Two servants immediately stood in front of Jiang Xue, "Miss, you..."

Before she could finish her words, Jiang Xue waved her sleeves, and the two servants fell to the ground in surprise.

The madam was so frightened that she stood up immediately, turned around and screamed and was about to run away. Unexpectedly, when she turned around, she saw a small white snake hanging from her head.

“Aa ...

The madam was so frightened that her face turned pale. She looked at the snake spitting out its tongue and was too terrified to move.

Jiang Xue walked slowly in front of the madam and said, "Who did you just say... is going to die?"

The madam stared at the little snake that was only a finger's length away from her and said in a trembling voice, "Lin...Lin Yiyi!"

"Where did she go?"

"Princess's Mansion."

"where?"

"East Street." The madam replied honestly.

Jiang Xue raised her hand slightly, and the little snake that was staring at the madam spit out its tongue and quickly crawled towards Jiang Xue's wrist, and then hid in her sleeve.

The madam's legs went weak and she sat on the ground again, her lips trembling, and she moved a little further away from Jiang Xue.

Jiang Xue seemed to have a smile on her face, but her words were full of authority. "Who is your boss?"

The madam looked up at Jiang Xue in confusion, "Why...why are you asking our boss?"

"What?" Jiang Xue curled her lips and said, "Of course, I want to buy Yanyu Tower."

The madam was surprised when she heard this. Although Yanyu Tower was in Huaxiang, it was also a place where people spent money more than Yihonglou. How could their boss give such a good place to make money to others?

Jiang Xue looked at the madam's eyes and asked, "What's the matter?"

The madam came back to her senses and said with a smile, "Our boss is a businessman. If the girl wants to buy the Misty Rain Tower, she has to follow the businessman's rules."

"What rules?"

"I will tell our boss, and you can just wait for my news then."

Jiang Xue thought for a moment and said, "Alright, three days at the latest. My patience is limited."

"Yes."

After Jiang Xue left, the madam stood up quickly, closed the door with a panicked look, and then leaned against the door to wipe the cold sweat from her forehead. She couldn't afford to offend either of these two girls.

Princess House.

The palace rises high into the clouds, and behind it are rolling mountains.

The courtyard is covered with green grass, and various rare flowers and towering trees bloom in brilliant colors under the sunshine, filled with fragrant aromas. Rockeries, flowing water, small bridges, pavilions, etc. form a poetic and picturesque scene that makes people intoxicated.

Women's laughter could be heard from the yard. A clear stream ran through the courtyard, making a gurgling sound. Beside the stream, many women in gorgeous clothes were gathering in groups of two or three, chatting.

Next to it is an exquisite pavilion with red eaves inlaid with golden colored glaze, which makes crisp and pleasant sounds as it floats in the breeze.

Xiao Yu stood under the pavilion holding a pipa in her hands, wearing a dark-black robe, her hair still half-disheveled, her head slightly lowered. A breeze blew by, and the corners of her robe were lifted by the wind, and Xiao Yu shuddered slightly.

He has been standing in this wind outlet for half an hour.

Wang Ying was wearing a light purple dress and an exquisite pearl hairpin on her head. She was chatting and laughing with those young ladies from aristocratic families with a smile on her face, but her eyes were always fixed on Xiao Yu.

The lady standing next to Wang Ying had spotted Xiao Yu early in the morning, and asked Wang Ying, "Sister Ying, who is that man? Why don't you introduce him to her?"

Wang Ying looked at Xiao Yu with a haughty look in his eyes and said, "He is just the top performer in Yanyu Tower. What is there to introduce about him?"

"He is Master Xiao?"

"Why?" Wang Ying looked at Fuyun and asked, "Are you interested?"

Fuyun hurriedly shook her head and said, "How dare I? This is the person my sister likes, how dare I covet him."

Wang Ying felt relieved after hearing this. He glanced at Xiao Yu standing in the wind, then looked at Fu Yun and said, "He was paid 50,000 taels to stay overnight last night. Mr. Xiao is very valuable now."

"Ah?" Fu Yun covered his mouth in surprise and said, "Mr. Xiao is really popular."

"Yes, my standards have become higher. If it weren't for Princess Jiahe's banquet today, I wouldn't have invited Master Xiao."

"Oh, Master Xiao is talented, handsome, and well-funded. If you put it on someone else in Yanyu Tower, who would get this treatment? Master Xiao has a connection with the princess."

Wang Ying frowned when he heard this, looked at the lady who was speaking, and asked, "You know a lot?"

"It's not a secret," the lady said with a smile.

Fuyun asked curiously, "What is it, sister?"

The young lady glanced at Xiao Yu and whispered, "I heard that our princess fell in love with Master Xiao in Zhongshan and wanted to keep him by her side, but Master Xiao was unwilling. In a fit of rage, the princess arrested Master Xiao's family and used this as a threat."

"However, Master Xiao was very stubborn and would rather die than obey. In the end, the princess ordered her people to change his status from a good citizen to a slave and sent him to the Misty Rain Tower."

Wang Ying was shocked when she heard this. It turned out that Xiao Yu was the princess's man. Fortunately, she did not win last night, otherwise she would have died here today.

"The princess is here!"

A sharp voice suddenly rang out in the yard.

Everyone fell silent, bowed to Jia He, and said, "Greetings, Princess!"

Jiahe was supported by her maid and sat in the pavilion. She was dressed in a charming red dress, with a bright smile and moving eyes.

She said softly, "Everyone, please stand up. The purpose of holding a banquet today is to get close to all the sisters. There is no need to be formal. Everyone, please take your seats."

"Yes."

Wang Ying and others stood up and sat down gracefully.

Jia He looked at Xiao Yu who was still kneeling beside him, without any expression in his eyes, and said to Xiao Yu: "Mr. Xiao, how is your stay in Yanyu Tower?"

Xiao Yu replied calmly: "Not bad."

After hearing this, Jia He grabbed his sleeves tightly, his eyes flashed with sarcasm, and then he said in a somewhat unhappy tone: "In this case, I heard that Master Xiao is now the top performer in Yanyu Tower, so let's all listen to Master Xiao's music. How about it?"

Xiao Yu nodded slightly and then stood up.

"Did I ask you to get up?" Jiahe said in a calm voice.

Xiao Yu was stunned, and before she could react, the maid beside Jiahe kicked her behind the knee, forcing her to kneel down.

Jia He adjusted his sleeves with gold trim, looked down at Xiao Yu and said, "Play on your knees."
