Fantasy: After three years in prison, the dude is out Chapter 200

Outside the Imperial Palace.

A golden lion pulled a gilded chariot, driven by the black-robed woman with twin swords on her back. The chariot stopped, flanked by a hundred ironclad cavalry, awaiting someone’s arrival!

Not long after.

Xie Weilou walked out of the palace walls, looking at the gilded chariot.

“Roar!”

The golden lion let out a low growl, its eyes fiercely fixed on Xie Weilou.

The woman driving the chariot remained indifferent, not stopping it, as if she found Xie Weilou displeasing.

Seeing this, Xie Weilou walked straight towards the golden lion, a smile appearing on his face: “A mere beast dares to act tough in front of this young master? This young master really wants to dismember you into eight pieces and boil you for meat!”

“Roar!”

Upon hearing this, the golden lion’s eyes flashed with bloodlust. Its jaws opened wide, and a terrifying pressure instantly crushed towards Xie Weilou.

“……”

Xie Weilou stood motionless.

The black-robed woman stared at Xie Weilou, somewhat surprised. Facing the golden lion’s slight pressure, Xie Weilou could remain still, which exceeded her expectations.

The golden lion seemed enraged, golden light filling the air, revealing the power of the Dao Repository. The pressure completely erupted, instantly pressing down on Xie Weilou.

“Cough cough!”

At this moment, a soft cough sounded.

The golden lion’s pressure instantly dissipated, a hint of fear appearing in its eyes, and it subconsciously retreated.

“……”

The black-robed woman’s gaze also sharpened, as if she was being stared at by a prehistoric beast, a chill running down her spine.

Not far away.

A black-robed old man approached with his hands behind his back. It was Prime Minister Wei, Wei Zhongchen.

Xie Weilou looked at Wei Zhongchen and saluted, “Greetings, Prime Minister!”

A smile appeared on Wei Zhongchen’s face, and he gently waved his hand, indicating that Xie Weilou need not be so polite. He looked at the chariot, cupped his fist and said, “Greetings, Second Princess.”

Yan Quanzhen lifted the curtain of the chariot and said softly, “Prime Minister, no need to be so polite. I wonder, Prime Minister, what brings you to the palace?”

Wei Zhongchen smiled and said, “His Majesty summoned me, and this old minister does not know what it is about.”

“Oh!”

Yan Quanzhen lowered the curtain, no longer asking.

Wei Zhongchen looked at Xie Weilou and said with a faint smile, “Cold Water Temple is a good place. The old monk’s wooden fish sounds can help people comprehend the Dao. You can go and listen.”

“Thank you for the Prime Minister’s guidance.”

Xie Weilou cupped his fist in salute.

“……”

Wei Zhongchen smiled and continued to walk forward.

Inside the chariot.

Yan Quanzhen slowly opened her mouth, “Xie Weilou, this trip to Cold Water Temple is an arrangement made by my imperial father. Will you go with me, or go on your own?”

Xie Weilou did not immediately answer this question. He came to the side of the chariot, reached out and gently tapped the gilded chariot, a touch of emotion appearing in his eyes.

“What do you mean?”

Yan Quanzhen asked indifferently.

Xie Weilou sighed, “A chariot made of pure gold, the Second Princess is truly wealthy.”

Yan Quanzhen: “……”

Xie Weilou continued, “I am a very vengeful person. Last night, the Second Princess’s monster frightened me. If you don’t cough up eighty to a hundred thousand taels, then the Princess can go to Cold Water Temple herself. This young master will not accompany you!”

Yan Quanzhen said indifferently, “This is my imperial father’s decree, do you dare to disobey it?”

Xie Weilou smiled calmly, “I dare not disobey His Majesty’s decree. His Majesty only said to accompany you to Cold Water Temple today, but didn’t specify the time. This young master has now embarked on the path of cultivation and is in a great mood. I plan to invite the brothers from the Tianquan Division to the pleasure house to listen to music. After I finish listening to the music, I will accompany the Princess to Cold Water Temple! You are not in a hurry, and this young master is even less in a hurry.”

After speaking, he was about to leave.

“Wait!”

Yan Quanzhen spoke.

Xie Weilou stopped.

Yan Quanzhen said lightly, “I’ll give you one hundred thousand taels!”

She naturally wouldn’t doubt Xie Weilou’s words. This guy said he was going to catch Yan Wuchen, catch the tutors of the Holy Academy, and he really did it. He was a stubborn person.

Now that the other party said they wouldn’t go without money, they definitely wouldn’t go if she didn’t give it.

Her imperial father asked Xie Weilou to go to Cold Water Temple with her, and she couldn’t figure out his plan for the time being, but if Xie Weilou really didn’t go, she wouldn’t be able to explain it.

Xie Weilou shook his head, “Not one hundred thousand taels, but two hundred thousand taels!”

“Two hundred thousand taels? You really know how to drive a hard bargain.”

Yan Quanzhen’s words carried a hint of coldness.

Xie Weilou said with a faint smile, “One hundred and eight thousand taels, rounded up, is two hundred thousand taels. The Princess can refuse, but you need to understand a principle: an inch of time is worth an inch of gold, but an inch of gold cannot buy an inch of time. This young master’s time is very valuable. Wait a little longer, and you’ll have to take out at least one million taels before this young master will go with you. Otherwise, no deal!”

Trying to act tough in front of me, Xie Weilou?

I must ruthlessly fleece you!

If I get the money, I can invite my brothers to Bai Yujing to listen to music. Everyone here, who wants to be my brother, Xie Weilou?

“You… very good!”

Yan Quanzhen’s voice was cold.

Xie Weilou said indifferently, “The Princess is also very good. As soon as you returned to Tianqi City, you wanted to give this young master a show of strength. Have I ever offended you personally? Besides, this young master has some conflicts with Princess Ruyu, but I don’t see her targeting me so much. On the contrary, the Second Princess targeted me as soon as she arrived in Tianqi City. Do you think this young master has a good temper?”

He glared at the golden lion and the black-robed woman: “Even if this young master is not good, he is also the Director of the Tianquan Division. A mere monster dares to act tough against this young master. Can this young master understand that someone wants to provoke the authority of the Tianquan Division? If I get annoyed, I will kill the monster, catch this driver, and take the owner of this chariot to the Tianquan Division for a cup of tea!”

The black-robed woman said indifferently, “Do you dare?”

“You think I don’t dare? Then you can try. The eighteenth level of the Heavenly Prison also holds many Profound Manifestation Realm and Dragon Transformation Realm experts. Do you think you are very strong?”

Xie Weilou retorted.

“……”

The black-robed woman frowned slightly.

“Alright! I’ll give you two hundred thousand taels, get in the car.”

Yan Quanzhen was silent for a second, but still compromised.

Xie Weilou said indifferently, “The Princess’s chariot is too precious, this young master can’t afford to ride in it. Take out the silver first, and I’ll ride my own horse over.”

Yan Quanzhen said, “Give him two hundred thousand taels.”

The black-robed woman waved her hand, and stacks of thick silver notes flew towards Xie Weilou.

Xie Weilou took the silver notes and put them into his storage ring. He walked straight to a unicorn spirit horse next to him.

“Wait!”

A charming laugh sounded at the right time. A white jade chariot pulled by two unicorn spirit horses was approaching.

The chariot stopped to the side, the curtain lifted, revealing Yan Ruyi’s exquisite face, dressed in a goose-yellow down skirt, her beauty captivating.

Xie Weilou saw Yan Ruyi and was a little surprised. He cupped his fist and saluted, “Greetings, Princess Ruyi.”

Yan Ruyi said with a charming smile, “Young man, this princess is also going to Cold Water Temple. Come with me! You just need to say loudly that you swear to be loyal to Princess Ruyi.”

Upon hearing this, Xie Weilou said without hesitation, “I swear to be loyal to His Royal Highness the First Prince.”

At this moment, he already understood the purpose of the Xia Emperor asking him to follow Yan Quanzhen to Cold Water Temple…
