Princess Medical Doctor-Chapter 914: Ransom, so handsome

Xiao Tianyao took the pill, which was like compromising the assassin. Before the drug took effect, Xiao Tianyao surrendered and allowed the assassin to take him down.

With two "clicks", the assassin stepped forward, and the first thing he did was to disable Xiao Tianyao's arm. This shows how deeply the assassin guarded Xiao Tianyao.

“I’m sorry.” Lin Chujiu said apologetically, looking at Xiao Tianyao whose arm was removed by the assassin.

She thought deeply. If she encounters danger, she will end up useless. Not only could she not help Xiao Tianyao, but she would drag him down.

"It's nothing." Xiao Tianyao's face remained unchanged as his arm was not disabled. He didn't even frown, as if he didn't know the pain. When the young prince, Xuanyuan Yu, saw this, he was shocked in his heart. Once again, he felt the gap between himself and Xiao Tianyao.

However, thinking about the age gap between him and Xiao Tianyao, Xuanyuan Yu calmed down again. He was still young. When he grows up to Xiao Tianyao's age, he will be as powerful as Xiao Tianyao. No, he will be even more powerful than Xiao Tianyao. Because he was the prince of the Central Empire!

Xiao Tianyao was captured. His bodyguards no longer had to fight. They could only be captured like Xiao Tianyao without any help.

"Kill them, leave no one behind!" However, the assassin didn't want to take away the guards. If there were too many people, it would be a burden for them. It would be better to kill them directly. But Xiao Tianyao disagreed: "Take them with you, no matter where you go from here. No matter how much money the emperor offers to you, benwang will pay ten thousand taels for each of them…"

Xiao Tianyao paused for a moment when he said this. Seeing the assassin's disapproval, he uttered the word "gold".

Xiao Tianyao brought a total of twelve personal guards, each with 10,000 taels of gold, which was 120,000 taels of gold. This was a large amount. Not to mention the assassins, even the young prince was stunned.

One hundred twenty thousand taels of gold can be used to train personal guards and dead soldiers. Let alone one hundred thousand, even twelve thousand were enough. But Xiao Tianyao was willing to give it up.

“One hundred and twenty thousand taels of gold, just for them? Xiao Wangye, are you sure?” The assassin didn’t believe it either.

One hundred twenty thousand taels of gold was not a small sum of money. But even if a small prince of the Eastern Country could come up with it, it would still take a lot of effort.

Without waiting for Xiao Tianyao to answer, the twelve guards knelt with a plop and choked with sobs: "Wangye, our lives… are not worth so much gold, please don't waste it on us."

They were moved by their prince's protection, but they didn't want their prince to spend money. As the prince's confidants, they knew better than anyone else how much money their prince needed to raise his troops every year, and how much effort he expended in raising money every year.

It was such a waste to spend 120,000 taels of gold on them. They would rather die.

Their lives were not worth one hundred and twenty thousand taels of gold.

“Benwang’s people are worth 120,000 taels of gold.” Xiao Tianyao answered two questions in one sentence.

"Wangye…" The guards all called Xiao Tianyao, wanting to refuse, but when they met Xiao Tianyao's cold eyes, they couldn't say a word.

They have been trained for a long time to only listen to orders, and they cannot disobey the prince's orders at all.

"Okay, Xiao Wangye. Since you are willing to pay 120,000 taels of silver for your twelve subordinates, I will take the trouble to take them away." The assassin readily agreed and motioned for his men to come forward to disable the arms of the twelve guards. As for the medicine?

Medicine also costs money, so they were reluctant to feed it to ordinary guards.

“Xiao Wangye, I respect you as a man, but I have offended you today.” The assassin had a gangster spirit and was full of charlatanism, but he admired Xiao Tianyao very much.

"I just hope that you will keep your promise and don't hurt us." Xiao Tianyao said calmly, not proud of the other party's regard.

"Don't worry, I will never make things difficult for you. I will release you as soon as I get the money. As for your guards? I will release them when you bring them gold. Before that, they will be treated to delicious food and drinks." The assassin said carelessly, not worrying at all that after Xiao Tianyao was let go, Xiao Tianyao would lead his troops to destroy them.

“Brothers, let’s go.” After taking down everyone, the assassin waved his hand and bound their hands and feet, blindfolded their eyes, and threw them into the carriage individually.

Xiao Tianyao, Lin Chujiu, and the young prince were the focus of care. They were given a separate carriage. As for Xiao Tianyao's twelve personal guards, they were not treated so well. The twelve people were put in sacks and thrown on the horse-like cargo. Then carried by the assassin on a hunchback.

After leaving the inn, the group of people instantly disappeared into the night, like ghosts in the middle of the night. Their speed and lightness of movement were astonishing.

The carriage moved forward at a high speed, making the jolts uncomfortable. The young prince, Xuanyuan Yu, twisted around, and it took him a long time to find a suitable position. He quietly lowered his voice and said: "Xiao Tianyao, Lin Chujiu, are you okay? Well… I didn't mean to hide my identity. Are you guys angry at me?"

Xuanyuan Yu admitted that he admired Xiao Tianyao and Lin Chujiu a little. Especially when Xiao Tianyao said that he was willing to exchange 120,000 taels of gold for the lives of twelve personal guards.

At that moment, he truly felt that Xiao Tianyao was too great and handsome. Among the people he knew, except for his father, no one could compare to Xiao Tianyao.

"I'm fine. Is the injury on your neck okay?" Xiao Tianyao ignored the young prince, and it was Lin Chujiu who spoke.

As for the matter of concealing identity the young prince said? Only the young prince himself believed that he had concealed his identity very well. They had known about it for a long time and were pretending not to know.

“It hurts a little. I feel dizzy. It’s not good.” Not only did he have injuries on his neck, but he was also slapped in the face. It hurt a lot, and it hurt even more when he spoke. But without speaking, the carriage was too dull, and he felt uneasy.

“Be patient. Wait until we get to our destination, then ask them to give you some medicine.” Lin Chujiu had medicine on her, but they were tied up like rice dumplings, so how could they get the treatment?

"Mmm." Xuanyuan Yu responded softly, like a wounded wolf cub, low and muffled. After a moment of silence, seeing that Xiao Tianyao and Lin Chujiu had not spoken, Xuanyuan Yu couldn't help but say: "Say…will they let us go? What if they get the money and don't let us go? Do we have to wait to die?"

After all, the young prince was still a teenager. Although he was born in the palace, he was well-protected and somewhat spoiled. He has never been in danger. It was unavoidable to feel uneasy when he suddenly encountered this incident.

Others can understand him, but Xiao Tianyao can't understand: "How did you grow up to be this big in the palace?" A boy of fourteen or fifteen years old, not to mention in the royal family, even in ordinary families, can be considered a half-grown man, but this little prince was so naive.

"You… look down on me?" Although Xuanyuan Yu was well-protected, he was not stupid. He could not hear Xiao Tianyao's ridicule.

Xuanyuan Yu’s glassy heart could no longer hold on as his self-esteem was hit repeatedly.

"Are you really stupid or are you pretending to be stupid?" Before Xuanyuan Yu could get angry, Xiao Tianyao said, "You don't naively think that the Central Empire will spend money to redeem us, do you?"

"Why not?" Xuanyuan Yu's irritable mood instantly cooled down due to Xiao Tianyao's words, and he even became sluggish for a moment.

The Central Empire will not spend money to redeem them, how could that be possible?
