The Legend of the Resourceful Princess

"Help! "Help!"

The teenager screamed in fear when he heard that there were ten thousand people in the pit. However, there was not a single person around him who was concerned.

"Tsk tsk, you deserved it!"

"Exactly, slaves should have the appearance of slaves, and yet you still want to run away."

"I think it's time to chop it into pieces. If you make fertilizer, you will sully our peonies. "

At this moment, the crowd were all whispering to each other.

Mu Ru Yue's expression was overcast. He wanted to step forward, but Feng Qing grabbed his wrist and continued, "Slaves of Peony City, if you want to escape, will be executed. Anyone who dares to move will be executed like that person.

These people would never reason with others. Even if you reveal your identity, you will be treated as an impersonator. In their eyes, Peony City was the law. Patience. That young man won't die in three to five days. "

When Mu Ru Yue heard Feng Qing's words, the fury in her heart couldn't be quelled no matter how hard she tried.

She glared at the people at the city gate and looked at Feng Qing, "What is going on?"

"This is Peony City, and this is also my palace …" The reason why he wanted to come here privately. I don't have any pity for these slaves, but I don't like this system either. What I want is the human heart, and what you want is the City Lord's life. So, how about we cooperate? "

Feng Qing's voice was extremely gentle.

Although Feng Qing had said that, Mu Ru Yue understood that he didn't want her to help him. He just wanted to help her. However, Mu Ru Yue didn't plan to refuse. Because... She wanted to get involved and see what this so-called slavery looked like!

Thinking about this, Mu Ru Yue nodded her head.

Seeing that she agreed, they continued to walk towards the city.

There was nothing to see at the entrance of Peony City. However, after walking for less than a hundred meters, what entered his line of sight was a huge flower bed. On the flower bed, peonies were flourishing. This flower bed was roughly a thousand people large. It was breathtaking.

Around the flower beds, there were twelve streets. Directly in front of them was the towering city governor's mansion.

Looking down the street, it seemed that every house had peonies planted on them. In fact, many of the constructions were carved with peony flowers. This was also the well-deserved city of Peony. If it wasn't for the fact that the young man was trying to escape in front of the door that cast a shadow over Mu Ru Yue's heart, she wouldn't have been able to stop herself from praising him.

However … Within this beautiful city, there lived a group of Fiends.

And the people who lived in this city, and those who supported the system of slavery here, and also bought and sold, were the blades in the hands of this demon.

After Mu Ru Yue and the rest entered the inner city, they headed for a street. In Peony City, there were twelve main streets, each with their own opinions. The streets were numbered. The first three streets were used for sacrificial rites. They were also heavily guarded at the intersection of these three roads.

From four to six, it was meant for the citizens to live in. However, it was limited to the local residents of Peony City. Seven to nine was the most prosperous place in Peony City. Here, there were countless delicacies and fine wine, and even peonies were dazzled by the sight of it. This was the place where peonies were used to view the scenery of Peony City.

From ten to twelve, there were plenty of restaurants, and all of them were for outsiders to live in. Here, the investigations were quite rigorous. It was as if they were afraid that someone would break the rules of the Peony City. There was another street a few blocks away that most people didn't want to talk about.

That was the slave market of Peony City.

In Peony City, many families couldn't leave their slaves. In their eyes, it was enough for the slaves to do whatever they wanted. They themselves really didn't need to do anything. These were the thoughts of most of the people here.

"This place is the streets where outsiders live. There are also people guarding the outer parts of these streets, but they are a bit fewer than the rest. " The one who spoke was Feng Qing.

Along the way, Feng Qing gave Mu Ru Yue Ke a lot of information about Peony City. Mu Ru Yue's curiosity towards Peony City increased. The Peony City took up a large area of land, but the owners of this place could use twelve streets to manage it. Furthermore, it was in a neat and orderly manner. There were no signs of unrest here. Even the slave market would not affect the entire Peony City.

This kind of management ability made Mu Ru Yue more and more anxious. After all, the Qing Xun that day … This was the kind of person he was. He was good at management, so she left everything to Qing Xun.

This person made use of her ability to continuously climb up the ranks of the organizations. In the end, he gave her a grand excuse to break up and even tried to kill her. When Mu Ru Yue thought about this, the fury in her heart couldn't be quelled.

As a member of the organisation, she hated to believe in others. However, that person was the only one she trusted the most, including … Her pitiful little love, in the end, did not leave anything behind. This person trampled over everything in her life.

If one were to say that the person whom this world hated the most, it would be none other than him …

As she thought about it, Mu Ru Yue took a deep breath and asked, "Have you already decided what to do?"

"Right now, the most important thing is to find a place to stay. In two days, Peony City will welcome a grand event, and at that time, the city will definitely be even more tense. If we hurry over at that time, we can only go to the Mayor's mansion."

Feng Qing said softly. Similarly, this also explained why this person wanted to come early. Murong Yue understood. Under Feng Qing's lead, the few of them soon arrived in front of a dilapidated restaurant.

In the last few streets, there were many inns and restaurants, and there were all kinds of them. However, this type of dilapidated and crumbling street was extremely rare. Even Tao Er saw it, and her expression changed. She carefully looked at her prince and said: "Your Highness, our this …"

"I am old with the master here." The moment she said that, she had already pushed open the shabby door of the restaurant. The moment she opened the door, Mu Ru Yue heard a creaking sound. Looking at the door that was shaking, Mu Ru Yue was deeply suspicious.

However, since Feng Qing had already decided on this, if others wanted to change it, it would be difficult. Especially in Peony City. They did not know Feng Qing's plan, so they did not say much about it.

Peach had always been Feng Qing's personal palace maid. Even if Feng Qing wanted her to die, she couldn't say anything. As for Yun'er, she had always listened to Mu Ru Yue's words and obediently stood by her side.

At this moment, Yun'er was still thinking about the incident with Hong Sanniang. He was on high alert.

No matter what, she definitely wouldn't allow something like Hong Sanniang to happen in front of her eyes. After all, he couldn't let down the trust his wife held in him. Thinking this, Yun'er leaned towards Mu Ru Yue.

After waiting for the door to stop shaking, Feng Qing lifted his leg and entered the restaurant. Mu Ru Yue carefully looked at the appearance of the restaurant. It was covered in dust and there were many spiderwebs hanging on it. It was a proof that this place was deserted.

As she thought about this, Mu Ru Yue followed him in.

After entering the restaurant, what entered his sight was the rows of tables and chairs. These tables and chairs were arranged neatly, but there was a layer of dust on top of them. The bar was also dilapidated. Even the south side of the city was much better than this place.

But because of this, it became rather interesting. In such a prosperous place like Peony City, in such a bustling street, no one had any ideas about such a shabby restaurant. This was quite strange.

Mu Ru Yue could be considered a merchant now. In the Southern District of the capital, those people didn't care about their lives for just a piece of land. Let's not talk about this anymore. If one were to talk about the economy of Peony City, it was likely that it would be even better than the Royal Capital.

Just when Mu Ru Yue was curious about what was going on, she heard a coughing sound come from upstairs. Everyone's gaze also landed on him. Soon, they saw a man wearing a green robe slowly walking over.

This person's face was pale, and he had the bearing of a scholar. A pair of long and thin eyes, clean and without a trace of evil. It looked like a clear spring, causing one to be unable to muster up even the slightest bit of anger.

His long hair was tied up in a wooden hairpin and he carried a book in his hands.

It seemed to be a medical book. How could such a person be the master of this place?
