Chapter 783: Chapter 298 Willing to Offer a Million Silver, Just Begging His Highness to Accept My Daughter [10,000 Words]_4
"Yes... yes," the bald man nodded.
Then Mu Rufeng stretched out his hand and opened the lids of those wooden boxes, revealing the silver inside.
"Your Highness, one box contains one hundred thousand taels," the bald man said.
One hundred thousand taels per box, over twenty boxes amounted to over two million taels. His Sixth Brother was indeed wealthy.
"Then I’ll take ten boxes," Mu Rufeng said, directly taking away ten boxes of silver, totaling one million taels.
Some confidants also needed to be consoled with rewards. Borrowing another two hundred thousand was about right, and he could still save a bit for personal use.
There were three million taels from Lingyan Pavilion, two and a half million from the House of the Marquis of Xuanping, and one hundred and twenty thousand from the Qing Gang.
The Eldest Prince had lent him three hundred thousand, Seventh Princess Mu Wuxia had lent him two hundred thousand, and now here, one million taels, totaling eight million two hundred thousand taels altogether.
With that, he had finally gathered a sum of eight million taels.
"Here, this is the IOU from Your Highness, to be repaid within a month without fail," Mu Rufeng handed the IOU to the bald man and then left the Sixth Prince Mansion with his entourage.
However, as they left the mansion, Mu Rufeng made the bloodstains on his body disappear, and his torn clothes also restored themselves.
"Your Highness, why would you harm yourself like this?" Inside the carriage, Xiao Cui looked at Mu Rufeng with a face filled with distress.
"Yes, Your Highness. With a body as precious as gold, how could you do such a thing?"
Beside them, Hong Lian and Qing Ya also spoke with faces full of concern.
"It’s nothing, I have already recovered," Mu Rufeng said with a smile.
"Recovered? How is that possible?" Xiao Cui expressed disbelief, stepping forward to tug at Mu Rufeng’s clothing.
Seeing this, Mu Rufeng stopped Xiao Cui by holding down her head.
Then he pulled down the shoulder of his robe, where blood and flesh should have been a mess, but instead was a shoulder of skin white as snow.
"Wow, Your Highness, it really has healed," Xiao Cui exclaimed, and then touched it twice.
However, she quickly thought of something and her face turned bright red.
Mu Rufeng lifted his clothes and then said with a smile, "So, there’s no need to worry about Your Highness."
Self-harm wasn’t an act for Mu Rufeng, but a genuine thrust inward.
It was just that the attribute of "Nirvana" was too strong, and in such a short time, combined with his strong physical strength, the penetrating injury had actually healed.
The level of this healing could be said to be superhuman.
"Your Highness, where shall we go now?" The coachman Liu Feng inquired.
"Let’s head back to the mansion first, we’re still waiting for Wang Chun and the others to bring back the silver from selling the properties," Mu Rufeng said.
"Yes, Your Highness."
When Mu Rufeng returned to his mansion, it was already four in the afternoon.
As Mu Rufeng got off the carriage, he prepared to enter the mansion.
At that time, another carriage hurried from behind, and a pot-bellied man alighted from it.
"Your Highness, Your Highness!" The fat man called out loudly.
Hearing this, Mu Rufeng turned to look.
"How impudent! This is the Prince Mansion. Who are you to make such a racket?" Liu Feng immediately scolded.
"Clang!" sounded a noise.
Trusted aides instantly drew their Big Blades, their stance menacing as they looked at the fat man.
The fat man was startled by the sudden turn of events and hastily knelt down.
"Your Highness, please spare my life! I am a wealthy man from the Imperial City with some extra capital. I heard that His Ninth Highness is lacking silver coin, and I am willing to offer a million taels of silver," the fat man hurriedly said.
"Oh? You wish to offer His Highness one million taels of silver?" Mu Rufeng’s interest was piqued.
He was indeed in need, but it was unlikely that anyone would offer up one million taels of silver for nothing. There must be a catch.
"Speak, what do you want?" Mu Rufeng asked.
"Your Highness, my daughter Ruo Liu at the blossom of twenty-nine has the beauty to sink fish and startle geese, with the complexion of flowers and the glow of the moon. She is well-educated, versed in the arts of zither, chess, calligraphy, and painting."
"My daughter has long admired Your Highness and only hopes... only hopes that His Ninth Highness could accept Ruo Liu as a concubine."
"Ruo Liu, come out and meet His Highness," the fat man turned his head and shouted toward the carriage.
Mu Rufeng also looked at the carriage along with the menacing guards.
Immediately, the carriage curtain was lifted, and a woman dressed in a white long gown stepped out.
"The young maiden Ruo Liu greets Your Highness," Ruo Liu descended from the carriage and gave a curtsey to Mu Rufeng.
This woman was indeed stunningly beautiful, far more so than Qing Ya, Hong Lian, and Xiao Cui who were by his side.
Moreover, as soon as this woman alighted from the carriage, a faint fragrance surrounded Mu Rufeng’s nose.
The scent came from Ruo Liu; it wasn’t from a sachet but her natural body fragrance, a woman with a born fragrance.
"Your Highness, does my daughter catch your eye?" the fat man asked.
"Not bad, but unfortunately, His Excellency does not take concubines before getting married. And, Sir, His Highness currently does not need money, please leave."
Mu Rufeng looked at Ruo Liu and then spoke.
Without paying them any further attention, he headed directly inside the mansion.
"Your Highness, Your Highness!" The fat sir exclaimed in shock, quickly getting up to chase after him.
"Halt! Dare come closer and you shall be killed without mercy!" Two guards drew their long blades, speaking viciously.
The fat sir instantly froze in his tracks, not daring to advance any further.
"Father," Ruo Liu’s face also turned pale, clearly unable to understand why she had been refused, confident in her own beauty.
Not to mention her natural fragrant body constitution, indeed a downfall of men.
"Let’s go, we’re going back," the fat sir could only lead his daughter away dejectedly.
