Chapter 10 Kidnapped

The next morning, before Aghia could find someone to make an appointment with Xie Jie, Zhou Zhong came to the door first.

Behind Zhou Zhong was a low-profile, green-roofed carriage, and he had a smile on his face, "Miss Aghia, Your Majesty's orders, he invites you up to Jiyun Temple for a chat."

Aghia curled her lips, glanced at the sneaky figure at the corner of the alley out of the corner of her eye, nodded slightly to cover her sharp aura.

Since Zhou Zhong was here, she did not have to bother planning how to get Xie Jie to arrive in time to save her from eldest miss Shen.

Robbing people from the hands of the emperor... if used properly, the fall of the Shen family could have been much earlier.

The carriage drove out of the alley for a long time, then several thugs came out. They looked at each other, hesitated for a moment, and followed up.

If the eldest miss Shen didn't get what she wants, they would be the ones who will suffer.

Aghia picked up a corner of the curtain, confirmed the carriage has been driving to the downtown, she gently knocking on the wall, "Lord Zhou."

Zhou Zhong was driving the horses and gave a cry.

Aghia's tone contained a bit of embarrassment, "I was in a hurry when I came out, so I didn't notice that the cuffs were torn. Could you please buy some silk thread for me, so I can mend it?"

It is disrespectful to face the emperor in torn clothes. If Aghia didn't say anything, everyone would just turn a blind eye to it, but if she did, Zhou Zhong couldn't play dumb.

Zhou Zhong hesitated for a moment, but still rolled over and got out of the carriage, bowing respectfully, "Then Miss Aghia, wait for a moment in this carriage, I will go now."

Aghia slightly lowered her eyes and spoke in a calm tone, "Tanks, Lord Zhou."

She listened sideways to the sound of Zhou Zhong's leaving footsteps, and counted in her heart, one, two, three.

The next second, the carriage door curtain was violently lifted, a hand reached in and pulled Aghia down directly.

The men was fierce, with one hand over Aghia's mouth and one hand holding a knife to her neck, lowering his voice and threatening, "No screaming, or I'll kill you!"

Aghia's eyes widened, pretending to be panicked, but the corners of her lips lifted without moving.

Sure enough, here they came.

In Hot Spring Brothel, the sound of petulant laughter and flirtation was incessant.

"Eldest miss," the thug’s flattering voice came, "here she comes."

Followed by eldest miss Shen's domineering, disdainful voice, she asked, "Is this the little bitch that bewitched Your Majesty's eyes and harmed my brother?"

She quickly approached and pulled off the cloth covering Aghia's eyes, "You are really foxy."

Aghia slowly opened her eyes, gazing at eldest miss Shen's condescending face, and pulled the corners of her mouth.

The eldest miss Shen's notoriety was well known throughout Wancheng City.

She hated women who look better than her, as long as she met them, she must destroy their appearance, or they will be sold into the Shen family's brothel.

In her previous life, if she hadn't been given to Xie Jie, she wouldn't have escaped this fate. Even so, she still had to suffer a beating in three or two days.

Aghia closed her eyes.

In this life, she deliberately let Madam Shen to provoke eldest miss Shen to do something to herself, in order to borrow the power of Xie Jie, and revenge for the humiliation of her previous life.

The eldest miss Shen was numbed by her look, her eyes were sinister and she raised her hand to slap, "Bitch, how dare you stare at me?"

"This slap down, your hand will be gone." Aghia did not avoid, stared straight at eldest miss Shen with a cold voice.

Eldest miss Shen's hand suddenly stopped in mid-air, she said incredulously, "You are threatening me?"

"I'm telling a fact." Aghia curled his lips, slowly and deliberately said, "your brother just wanted to touch me, but was broke a right hand by His Majesty. You are the one who really want to hit me... eldest miss Shen, how many hands do you have, enough for His Majesty to cut?"

She foxed her way up, as if Xie Jie was really a faint ruler who was obsessed and confused for her.

Eldest miss Shen’s angry face turned red, in the end, she dared not take action, but fiercely glared at the thugs "You! beat her!"

The thugs took a step back in unison, no one dared to move.

They all heard clearly Aghia's words just now. That’s His Majesty's people.If Shen family members beat her, they will break their hands. If they beat her, they will probably die.

One of the thugs hastened to speak, changing the subject, "Miss, you just said, that Hot Spring Brothel is lacked prostitute, and the steward is to organize the auction?"

The prostitute is the woman who sells her body in the brothel. No doubt, only their first night can be auctioned.

Aghia knitted her brows, almost sneering out loud.

The eldest miss Shen's tactics were really a thousand years like a day.She was seeking death for herself.

Eldest miss Shen really hummed, proudly raised his eyebrows, deliberately lengthened his voice, "Yes, I almost forgot."

She slapped Aghia's face, not hiding her malice, "How seductive a face of you! You have to be in a brothel, in order to play your maximum value."

Aghia eyes cooled down, staring fixedly at eldest miss Shen, "You will regret it."

Xie Jie was so possessive that she was afraid of herself. He saw her as something in the bag, how can he tolerate others to covet.

This auction was destined to end in blood.

The eldest miss Shen was unafraid, snickering, mocking, "Do you really think His Majesty will like you? Such a bitch? You are just a beautiful plaything, who would want it if you got dirty?"

"No matter what, Shen family will send another better one up, and His Majesty will be relieved." She gestured to her thugs to push Aghia to the railing and pulled back the curtain, with full jealousy in her voice, "As for you, you can wait to be a prostitute trampled on in this youthful house."

The steward downstairs saw the figure on the railing and had started the auction.

"New exotic woman from the Northern Rong. First night listing, a tael of silver. Starting bid—"

This auction reserve price was deliberately set by eldest miss Shen. She wanted to humiliate Aghia.

The guests came and went with their prostitute in their hands and laughed.

The rich merchant with a big waist touched the beauty in his arms and shouted, "a tael of silver."

"A tael of silver." Eldest miss Shen sipped her tea, listened slowly to the sound downstairs, and scoffed, "bitch."

Aghia looked at the absurdly ambiguous scene downstairs and slowly closed her eyes, waiting for Xie Jie to arrive.

"Three taels!"

"Ten taels!"

"Fifty taels!"

"Fifty taels. Master Zhou." The auction gradually stalled, and the steward did not expect to get a windfall by cooperating with eldest miss Shen, so he was laughing aloud. He was about to make a final decision, but a low voice came from outside the door

"One hundred taels." Xie Jie slowly walked into the building, "gold."

There was a silence in the building.

Xie Jie's voice was calm, but his tone clearly carried a killing intent, "It depends on the Shen family, whether they have this life to take."

The words have just fallen, Jinwu Guard fishes in. Their blades shine with the cold aura, shocked the whole Hot Spring Brothel.

The eldest miss Shen jerked up and brought down the chair, scared out of her wits, "His Majesty, His Majesty? How could he come!"
