Chapter 7 – Dark Punishment

“All of you get up!” Suddenly, a loud voice broke the peaceful moment and made everyone stunned. When they saw a group of people wielding knives had surrounded them, their eyes were covered in fear and they worried about their items. “Take out all the valuables. If you all make me unhappy, the knife in my hand doesn’t grow eyes. You better worry that you have silver money but don’t have life to spend it!”

“M-Miss, they are bandits!” Mother Lin leaned against the carriage, stuttering. Cha-er was so afraid that she couldn’t even stand firm anymore.

“Give them everything.” Ling Xuan instructed without even thinking.

“Miss, how can you do that? We have brought so many things from Jiang Nan! If we give them everything, how will Miss explain to everyone when we return to the capital?” Mother Lin opposed hurriedly, yet be it intentionally or unintentionally, she mentioned about the huge sum of money that they brought with them, and this had attracted the bandits’ attention even more.

“Go ahead and give it to them.” Ling Xuan replied with a mocking grin. She understood what Mother Lin was thinking. “Those items belong to me this Miss, Mother Lin doesn’t need to care so much. Just give it to them, our lives are the most important thing!”

“Miss.” Mother Lin was still trying to oppose it.

“Don’t talk so much nonsense. If you don’t give me the valuables, I will not allow any of you to leave this place!” The leader was very arrogant and murderous.

“Hmmph! So arrogant! Under the emperor’s feet, you dare to do such a rampant thing. You are really not afraid to die.” WanQi Ling Xuan wanted to impress Yun Ling Xuan after hearing her words and thought that she was afraid to die, that was why she wanted to hand over everything.

“Sir, I beg you, please save our Miss. If Miss don’t bring all the valuables from Jiang Nan back to the capital, the old lady will definitely not forgive her. At that time, Miss’s life will be very miserable.” Mother Lin’s cry was so sincere, only God knew what her words really meant.

“Miss Yun, are you willing to leave with me? If you agree, I will use my life to protect you.” MoQi Ling Xuan thought, with such sincerity, more or less he could make her feel touched.

Unfortunately, he thought it was good enough, but the answer he got had made his face gloomy at once.

“Sir protecting me alone, how can I feel at ease? Everyone here followed me to the capital. If because of me they get into trouble, even if I manage to escape, in this lifetime I will be guilty, so your good intention I cannot accept.” Ling Xuan lifted the curtain on the carriage and walked out. She used a strict tone to reject his intention, and then look at the bandits riding on the horse seriously, “We will give you everything, please spare our lives.”

Looking at the little girl standing on the carriage, the bandits felt surprised and strangely believed what she said.

“As long as Miss give us all the things, we will let you all go and won’t harm any of you.” The leader said loudly.

“Cha-er, bring down all the things from the carriage and take out everything from Mother Lin’s wrapping cloth.” Things that belonged to Mother Lin, she would rather give it to the bandits than to be kept by her.

Those silver money were given by her in her past life. If they really counted it, Mother Lin should be very rich. It would be easy for her to buy land and a house. Herself in the past life didn’t have any idea how to handle the silver money. As long as Mother Lin made her happy, jewelry, silver money, she would give them to her. In other people’s eyes, she was like one idiot.

This time, she wanted Mother Lin to vomit out whatever she took in.
