"What are you doing? -! I have worked hard to move a small mountain of gold from the Wang Family Villa. In just a few days, these guys have spent all of them. Has anyone embezzled the big head? Check it out carefully for me-!"

Because he was influenced by the 21st century's thoughts, Long Jiu's heart was so huge that he was struggling with such a huge sum of funds. He must have had many tricks in it. He wanted to clearly observe the whereabouts of these gold coins without thinking about it! Fortunately, there were a few people who were clear-headed beside him. The second princess stopped Sanbao, who originally wanted to take the order and leave, with a helpless smile on her face and said softly: "How come you don't trust your subordinates so much? Although the 100,000 gold coins are a considerable amount, if you use them to rebuild a city, these gold coins are a bit insufficient. It can allow you to last for a week, which is the result of the greatest savings of these people under your hands! If you really check the whereabouts of these gold coins carefully, you may feel cold in the hearts of these people..."

As the second princess of the royal family, Byron Yunxia has a much better grasp of people's hearts than Long Jiu who is hiding in society. With a few words, Long Jiu's idea was dispelled. However, the latter had no choice but to grab his scalp and pulled his face and said in a deep voice: "But in this way, the work of building a city will be delayed. I'm afraid that those who are interested will notice that we are insufficient funds! If the Wang family exposed that matter, the consequences would be severe. In such a short time, where would I raise a huge sum of money?"

Facing the strongest, Long Jiu may not have such helplessness, but in terms of money, he is very bad at it. He finally used a trick to get a fortune from the money he had robbed. He could not make money again. A fool could even think that the Wang family courtyard must be protected by iron walls. It is absolutely impossible to get such great benefits again without revealing his identity!

"It really doesn't work, otherwise you'd better go back and ask your Long family for some gold coins, or I'll talk to my father and rebuild Lanling City. You should still be able to get the funds..."

"No -! This is absolutely not possible! This young master praised Haikou for not needing rewards in front of everyone! If you regret it now, your face will be greatly lost!"

Before the second princess could finish a word, Long Jiu shook his head desperately and rejected her proposal. Although this was the most convenient and fast way, he was just a stubborn temper and decided to persevere to the end! The second princess who knew his personality could only shake her head helplessly and not say much.

Just as the two were thinking about how to raise this large amount of funds and fell into silence, a man stepped forward and reported anxiously: "Sir, a royal guard came outside the city, saying that the two princes arrived, I don't know..."

"Oh? Soon, the prince, who could not bear it, wants to come and curry favor with me? Hehe, this is a good opportunity to come to my door! Invite me in! This young master has already smelled the smell of gold coins..."

When Long Jiu heard the word "prince", he was quite excited. Of course, he knew that with his performance in the imperial city twice, sooner or later, there would be royal nobles who wanted to come and win over his visits. However, he did not expect that not long after he arrived in Lanling City, the two of them came first were princes, and there were two at once!

However, after the informant left, the second princess next to her couldn't help frowning and whispered to her beloved man: "Jiulang, I'm afraid the fourth and sixth brothers I don't like most among all my brothers. Since their father established the eldest brother as the crown prince, they have been secretly together all day long. I don't know what they are planning. Now the eldest brother has died and the third brother has been detained. Seeing that the ninth brother is going to become the new crown prince naturally, I'm afraid these two people will have any actions. Don't be deceived by their sweet words..."

With a slight smile, Long Jiu stretched out his hand to scrape the second princess' nose, "Don't worry, little girl, who do you think I am? I am the genius who defeated your elder brother with both civil and military skills! The only opponent I am not sure about is your second brother. As for the mind, hum, they should not be too confident. Otherwise, I promise that those who oppose me or want to plot against me will die miserably..."

As soon as this sentence fell, two hearty laughters were heard from far to near. The first thing that caught my eye was the vast guards of nearly a hundred imperial guards. Walking among these guards were two young men in gorgeous clothes, who looked six or seven years older than Long Jiu, and were also upright young and middle-aged.

The difference is that the person standing on the left looks a little thin, and his breath is not vaguely obvious, and he can't feel any strong sense of oppression. However, on the other hand, the person on the right is wearing a silver spear on his back. The whole person gives a burly and domineering attitude at a glance, and the aura in his body is faintly pressing towards the surroundings. With Long Jiu's feeling, this person has at least the strength to quantify the three levels and above, and he doesn't give in to the eldest prince who was defeated in his hands at that time!

"Hahahaha--I heard that the prefect Xiaoyao volunteered to come and manage the chaotic Lanling City. It seems that the results are quite good now. This chaotic place has begun to build such a magnificent city wall under the governance of the prefect Xiaoyao! In my opinion, in March, this place will be able to restore it to its original prosperous appearance, right?"

The relatively thin man, under the intentional or unintentional protection of the Imperial Guard, walked to the front of Long Jiu and the Second Princess. He first bowed to the Second Princess, and then smiled and said to Long Jiu with a very enthusiastic look.

"Hehe, your prince is polite. Please forgive me for being so rude. I don't know if this prince is..."

"Ah, haha! Sorry, I'm sorry, I didn't introduce it first. The Prefect Xiaoyao rarely comes out for activities. I'm afraid I don't recognize my face. My prince's name is Kairole, and he is the fourth child of his father. The next one is my sixth prince, Bruho. He has met the new Prefect Xiaoyao, Master Long Jiu!"

"Oh! It turns out that His Highness the Fourth Prince and His Highness the Sixth Prince are here! It seems that my Lanling City is destined to be extremely glorious, hehe! Thanks to the auspicious words of both of you, by the day when Lanling City is rebuilt, I will invite His Highness the two princes to come and have a drink to cheer up!"

Although he had already received a reminder from the second princess, Long Jiu still pretended to be a completely enlightened expression to cater to the fourth prince's smile. Since the other party had a smile, he naturally could not greet him with a bad face.

"Hahaha--Young Prefect Xiaoyao, you are polite! In fact, we are here today, and we are not here to greet Xiaoyao Prefect Xiaoyao and the second emperor's sister. I don't like to talk around the bush. If I don't waste the time of Xiaoyao Prefect Xiaoyao, I will not say secret words..."

To Long Jiu's expectations, the fourth prince did not say a lot of polite words as he had expected, but just got to the point in two or three sentences! This made Long Jiu nod his head in admiration. Not to mention anything else, at least this directness was still something he could appreciate! After all, both sides knew that it was impossible to come to this remote Lanling City as two princes, just to say hello...

"Hehe, I like to speak out loud. Although I can't guarantee that I will agree to the two princes, I might as well talk about it first!"

"Premier Xiaoyao is polite. In fact, we don't have any big requirements. We don't need to explain the situation in the palace now. You should have understood Xiaoyao Prefect. The eldest brother wanted to ascend the throne as soon as possible. The third brother couldn't stand the loneliness and followed in the footsteps. The second brother didn't want to inquire about the government and became a free and easy prince. In terms of qualifications and age, it should be the turn of this prince to succeed the position of the crown prince. But you also know the temper of the father. He didn't know why he took the initiative to make the Ninth Emperor become the crown prince. Whether it was martial arts or intelligence, the Ninth Prince was the lowest among our nine brothers. If he really became the crown prince, it would probably be harmful to the future of the entire Dragon Empire! Prefect Xiaoyao, what do you think?"

I don’t know if the fourth prince believed in him too much or that Long Jiu would not talk nonsense. In front of him, he actually spoke so directly about the most sensitive topic of the throne inheritance of the Divine Dragon Empire!

A glimmer flashed in his eyes. Long Jiu did not rush to answer his question, but smiled softly and said in a deep voice: "To be honest, I cannot do this question, and I dare not answer directly with the Fourth Prince. You have experienced the rebellion of the two princes. Your Majesty is now quite sensitive to this matter. If I talk nonsense here and express my own opinions, even if I have made great contributions before, I may be dragged back and asked for a question! Hehe... I can almost understand the meaning of the two, but please forgive me for protecting myself. I don't want to participate in this matter for the time being, so please go back!"

He made a "please" gesture. After saying this, Long Jiu was about to turn around and leave the second princess beside him, but he heard the fourth prince behind him say a sentence in a low voice. This sentence made Long Jiu stand up straight.
