Princess Medical Doctor-Chapter 932: Fake, his heart is moved

The Eldest Prince did not ask for more soldiers and only brought one hundred taels of gold with him. He traveled in a light carriage and arrived at the place set by the bandits at noon the next day.

“Your Highness, do you have to redeem people with gold by yourself?" The martial gods and soldiers brought by the Third Prince blushed when they saw the gold brought by the Eldest Prince.

It was because they were useless that a group of bandits threatened the Central Empire.

"The lives of the Third brother and the Seventh brother are more important. Prince Xiao and Princess Xiao are now guests of our Central Empire. We cannot let anything happen to them. Gold is a trivial matter. Everything else can wait until we save them." The Third Prince was full of confidence and pride. While the Eldest Prince changed his previous irritability and belligerence, he spoke calmly.

"What His Highness said is that the most important thing now is to ensure the safety of the Third Prince and others, and everything else will be easy to handle." Although the Central Empire was big, it was very easy to find a few bandits no matter how big was their country.

These bandits were destined to get gold, but it does not mean they are destined to spend flowers.

"Which of you can contact the bandits? I want to negotiate with them first about the method of handing over the gold and the order in which they will release the people." The styles of the Eldest Prince and the Third Prince were completely different. When he arrived, he negotiated with the bandits first to ensure the safety of the hostages.

This move was appreciated by the entire army.

Although the Third Prince's previous approach was refreshing, it was too arrogant. Although it was frustrating for the Eldest Prince to do this, it was the safest way.

The generals stationed on the spot immediately went to communicate with the bandits, but the bandits refused to pay attention to them and refused to talk. They directly asked them to hand over the gold. There was no other discussion and there was nothing to talk about.

The general was angry, but he also understood that these bandits must be seeking revenge for the Third Prince's previous disregard for them.

“Your Highness, those thieves are unwilling to talk.” The garrison general was very angry at the bandits, but he did not dare to show it in front of the Eldest Prince.

"Alas…" The Eldest Prince sighed pretending to be sad: "If you don't want to talk, we can only wait until the gold is handed over in the evening. Let's discuss how to use these one hundred taels of gold to rescue all the people."

The Eldest Prince summoned the garrisoned generals to discuss matters and discuss strategies to deal with the enemy…

The bandit leader was on the island. When he learned that the Eldest Prince had arrived with gold, he immediately laughed happily: "His Highness is here, and this matter is finally over."

Although they have always done some shameful things for His Highness, they have never openly been enemies of the Central Empire. This time they went overboard. Ever since they kidnapped the young prince, he has been anxious for fear of an accident.

Fortunately, things went smoothly and nothing happened that shouldn't have happened.

Seeing the bandit leader getting carried away with himself, Xiao Tianyao couldn't help but frown: "Be careful that trouble comes from your mouth." This matter must not be exposed under any circumstances. If people know that this matter was planned by the Eldest Prince, he will be finished.

“Prince Xiao, don’t worry, I know the seriousness of the matter.” The only people who knew that this matter was related to the Eldest Prince were the bandit leader and five martial gods. 𝐛𝐞𝐝𝐧𝗼𝘃𝐞𝐥．𝗰𝐨𝗺

The wealth and lives of the six of them belong to the Eldest Prince, and they will never betray the Eldest Prince.

"Mmm." He believed that no matter how reckless the Eldest Prince was, he would not make fun of his future. He was just giving a reminder.

After all, it was not easy to find another collaborator like the Eldest Prince.

The Eldest Prince and the generals stationed in the navy quickly came up with a countermeasure, or rather it was the Eldest Prince’s suggestion and they agreed.

The Eldest Prince only brought one hundred taels of gold this time, but the bandits wanted two hundred taels of gold. What should they do with the remaining one hundred taels?

“Fake it!” Add copper to the bag with gold.

Ordinary people won’t be able to see through it.

"The time to pay the ransom is at night, and the bandits can't see clearly. Of course… we also put a few pure gold bricks on top, but the others are mixed with copper." The Eldest Prince said without thinking much. After saying this method, it was obvious that he had already thought of it.

“This method is feasible. We give them the gold in one go. This way, even if they find out later that the gold is fake, they won’t have the guts to get it back.”

"It's good if they look for us. If they dare to look for us, we will destroy them."

Without other choices, the Eldest Prince’s method was relatively reliable.

There was only half a day left, but they had one hundred thousand elite soldiers. With so many people working at the same time, not to mention only one hundred taels of gold, they can make another hundred taels of gold.

There was still half an hour before the appointed time. Two hundred gold bricks were neatly placed in front of the Eldest Prince. Looking at the shining gold bricks in front of him, the Eldest Prince shook his head.

It was a pity that only half of it was gold bricks. If it were all gold bricks, he wouldn't have to worry about the money to support his troops and horses.

But…he can't be too greedy. He was satisfied with one hundred taels of gold. After all, this batch of gold can be said to be a windfall.

“Your Highness, this batch of gold bricks is enough." A knowledgeable person went up to check and found that, as the Eldest Prince said, it was impossible to distinguish the real from the fake with the naked eye.

“Very good, put it in the ship.”

The Eldest Prince brought two hundred taels of gold bricks mixed with fake gold bricks to the sea area agreed with the bandits. The Eldest Prince arrived on time, while the bandits arrived a quarter of an hour late.

"Sorry, sorry, I'm late." The bandit leader stood on the boat carelessly, while apologizing, but his actions were very unrestrained.

He didn't want to go so far, but Prince Xiao said that if he didn't show an arrogant attitude, others would be suspicious.

In order not to cause trouble to the Eldest Prince, he could only do his best to do what a bandit should do.

"This prince came early." The bandits asked the Eldest Prince to pay the ransom alone, so the Eldest Prince was the only one on the boat.

Of course, a few people were hiding under the boat. Everyone understands this even without saying it.

No one would believe that the Eldest Prince would come alone.

"Here is gold, where are the people?" The Eldest Prince tore off the black cloth covering the gold bricks. In an instant, the entire sea area shimmered with golden light. Under the afterglow, the golden light intertwined together, blinding people's eyes.

At that moment, the bandit leader admitted that he was tempted and wanted someone to steal the gold.

Of course, this thought only flashed for a moment before he was swatted away.

This batch of gold belongs to His Highness. He will die before he can get the gold out of greed.

"I can see the gold, but… we have to test whether it is real or fake. What do you think, Eldest Prince?" The bandit leader suppressed the greed in his heart, but he still showed a greedy look on his face.

Well, he admitted that at least 50% of what he looked like at this time was true.

"Yes, but I also want to test people. What if you make two more fake ones to deceive me?" Although the Eldest Prince was certain that his people would never dare to deceive him,…

They should perform a full set of dramas!

For the sake of one hundred taels of gold, even if no one was watching, he must continue to perform this play well…
