After transmigrating into the body of a widow, I became the richest man in the capital.
Chapter 300 Giving in
Chapter 300 Giving in
Su Xiaoxiao watched the commotion from inside the pawnshop. Prince Gong's guards gave the pawnshop owner a good beating before finally stopping.
Su Xiaoxiao watched with great enjoyment, thinking that she could give them a good beating without lifting a finger, which was incredibly satisfying.
Liu Mang was also stunned. He had never been beaten by anyone before.
This time, because Su Xiaoxiao almost got beaten up like a dog being trapped behind closed doors, to be honest, he actually felt a bit extremely happy for a day.
Finally, Su Xiaoxiao finished up the matter. She slowly walked up to the shopkeeper, who was already terrified and kept backing away, saying tremblingly, "I'm telling you guys, this is the capital, a place where the law is in effect. If you dare to do anything reckless, I will definitely report you to the authorities and have you arrested."
After hearing this, Su Xiaoxiao smiled and held up a finger in front of him.
"Go ahead and report it. But this guy in front of you seems to be even more powerful than the government officials. If you don't believe me, just try it. Even the county magistrate has to listen to him."
The shopkeeper looked at Prince Gong with suspicion. This man did indeed look very noble and dressed very expensively, but who exactly was he?
Anyway, he's the kind of person you wouldn't dare underestimate at first glance.
Prince Gong, fanning himself, slowly said, "Go ahead and complain. See what that old geezer Magistrate Liu has to say. He tried to give me a gift a few days ago, but I refused it."
The shopkeeper asked, "What's going on?"
So, the county magistrate, whom he could never even meet, was referred to as an old geezer by this person.
The shopkeeper didn't even need to think; the person in front of him was definitely someone important.
Seeing that the shopkeeper remained silent, Su Xiaoxiao changed the subject, pointing to the ginseng and lingzhi on the table, "But if I were to tell Prefect Liu about this, you'd probably have to close your pawnshop down immediately, wouldn't you?"
"This……"
Prince Gong fanned himself while looking at the shopkeeper.
The guards surrounded the shopkeeper, while his henchmen lay on the ground, pleading for mercy.
Upon hearing Su Xiaoxiao's words, the shopkeeper was so frightened that he hurriedly waved his hand.
"No, when did I steal anything from anyone? You can take the ginseng and lingzhi, young lady."
Upon hearing this, Su Xiaoxiao sneered, "You change your tune pretty quickly, don't you?"
The shopkeeper dared not disobey Su Xiaoxiao any longer. "Young lady, no, auntie, I don't want this anymore, I'll give it back to you! I hope you will be magnanimous and forgive me this time. I was just blinded by greed and that's why I did something wrong."
Before Su Xiaoxiao could speak, Prince Gong came over and kicked the shopkeeper in the back of the knee. Caught off guard, the shopkeeper immediately knelt down in front of Su Xiaoxiao.
After the shopkeeper knelt on the ground, he did not get up again.
Actually, he was so scared that he wanted to kneel down long ago, but Su Xiaoxiao pretended to go over and help him up, saying, "Oh dear, boss, you're so old, it seems a bit inappropriate for you to pay respects to a junior like me during holidays!"
Su Xiaoxiao made a move to go over and help him, but was stopped by Prince Gong.
"Let him kneel if he wants. I think he's probably just feeling guilty for what he did. If I hadn't come today, he would have definitely stolen your medicinal herbs and beaten you up. He's probably done this kind of robbery countless times before."
That seems to make sense, Su Xiaoxiao thought to herself. The shopkeeper wasn't like this just now; he was very arrogant and didn't show any mercy to a young girl like her.
The shopkeeper didn't seem to have heard clearly either. He thought the man had said "this king" just now, or was there something wrong with his ears?
The shopkeeper quickly continued to beg for mercy, "Yes, I've done this a few times before, I really deserve to die. I really shouldn't have treated you like this, Miss Su..." Now he also heard the people next to him calling Su Xiaoxiao "Miss Su," and he guessed that they were calling her that to get closer to her.
"Could you please spare me this time, considering my advanced age? Is that alright?"
Su Xiaoxiao was kind-hearted, but she still turned to look at Prince Gong beside her, as if to see what his opinion was.
After all, he was the one who saved him this time.
Prince Gong's face darkened, and he said to Su Xiaoxiao, "Since you want to forgive him, then so be it. Anyway, I wasn't the one who was bullied just now, so what do I have to say?"
Upon hearing this, Su Xiaoxiao turned to the shopkeeper and said, "Get up, don't kneel on the ground anymore."
Prince Gong pointed at the shopkeeper and said, "Let me tell you, I'm not someone you can mess with. If I ever see you harming people like this again, I'll take your life."
The shopkeeper was so frightened that he quickly nodded, "Don't worry, I will never do that again."
Prince Gong pulled Su Xiaoxiao to leave, but Liu Mang frowned, thinking to himself, "Who is this kid? How dare he hold the hand of the person I like?"
He seemed to have overheard Prince Gong referring to himself as "this prince," which sounded rather odd. Although Liu Mang had never actually met Prince Gong.
The shopkeeper didn't forget to ask, "May I ask who you are, sir? What is your honorable name?"
Prince Gong turned around and glared at him. "Why are you asking about my life? Do you want to get another beating from me later?"
"I wouldn't dare. What I really want to know is where your residence is, so that I can go and pay my respects to you in the future!"
Su Xiaoxiao thought to herself, "You should just give up on that idea."
Prince Gong rolled his eyes at him and said, "I'll leave you the address, but you still won't dare to come."
One of the guards handed the shopkeeper a slip of paper with an address on it. The shopkeeper took it and looked at it.
He was so frightened that he almost fell to the ground, and the thugs next to him came over and helped him up.
"Shopkeeper, should we send a few more people to take revenge?"
After the shopkeeper showed the words on the note to those people, they were all dumbfounded.
The address of Prince Gong's Mansion is written above. Are they still seeking revenge?
Without saying a word, the shopkeeper quickly pawned all the items in the pawnshop, and our family fled for our lives.
If you offend Prince Gong in Beijing, what chance do you have of surviving?
Once Su Xiaoxiao reached the street outside, she immediately cupped her hands in thanks. "Prince Gong, thank you for today. If it weren't for you, I think they would have robbed me and beaten me up."
Prince Gong waved his hand at him, "It's nothing, it's nothing. I just happened to be passing by and saved your life. But by the way, why are you selling medicinal herbs here?"
Upon hearing this, Liu Mang exclaimed, "So this person is Prince Gong? I never expected that Su Xiaoxiao would know such an important figure as Prince Gong. It seems I really don't know Su Xiaoxiao at all!"
