Chapter 3 — Pawn Shop Changes Destiny
Then she suddenly opened her eyes wide and looked at me.
“Miss Linh, let's make a contract.”
“I voluntarily transfer my life to the old man.”
Khuong Thanh Nguyet agreed very emphatically. I immediately cast a contract on both of their wrists. Two golden threads intersected in midair, gradually turning into illusions and merging into their bodies. The contract has been completed. Co Minh immediately recovered. His whole body became healthy and his spirit was bright. On the contrary, Khuong Thanh Nguyet instantly aged ten years. Co Minh got out of bed and walked towards me.
"I just said something insulting, and I thought you were an old friend."
"I don't know where the immortal monks are, or what immortal mountain to practice in?"
He intentionally inquired about my background. I coldly replied:
“It is not convenient to disclose.”
Co Minh smiled wryly, his eyes constantly evaluating me from top to bottom. Not wanting to continue facing that face that always made hatred rise in my heart, I turned away. Co Minh, you just keep living. If I save your life, it still works. ## 4 I was just about to leave when a luxuriously dressed figure swaggered in. He has a noble status, and behind him is an old eunuch. Extremely arrogant voice.
"Your highness, you're not dead yet? That's really great."
“The emperor also sent the prince to visit you.”
“Seeing that nothing is wrong with you, this prince can also return to obey.”
As soon as he walked in, I smelled the special scent of my mother on him. I closed my eyes, silently opened my spirit, and let my consciousness sink into that scent. The sixth prince should have died right in the womb. But his biological mother is Concubine Cao Quy, the emperor's favorite concubine. The noble's body was weak, and when he was pregnant, he almost lost his life. That year, the emperor used my mother's blood to make medicine, saving the lives of mother and child. Images of the past appear clearly before our eyes. I found another enemy of my mother. He also deserves to die. Seeing me staring at him, the Sixth Prince curled his lips and extended his hand towards me. I immediately dodged.
“Be rude!”
He immediately got angry.
"Your highness, who is this? How dare you speak to this prince in that tone!"
Co Minh quickly apologized.
“Your Highness Luc, this is Miss Linh, owner of Thien Linh Pawnshop.”
The sixth prince smiled slightly and openly mocked:
“Is it the pawn shop that claims to be able to connect other people's lives?”
“That's absolutely ridiculous.”
“This prince does not believe in these myths.”
“But since you are here, then this prince also wants to give it a try.”
It's like finding a way to die. Co Minh immediately stopped it.
“No way! Your Highness, please be careful!”
But the Sixth Prince did not listen at all.
"Prime Minister, I see that you are not only sick to the point of confusion, but also old and confused."
“If she really had such great magical powers, this pawn shop and its owner would have been taken into the hands of the emperor long ago.”
He looked at me and said in a loud voice:
“This prince will try it with you once.”
“If you don't have the miraculous ability as rumored, your head will be the first to fall.”
"This will also prevent you from continuing to pretend to be a god and a ghost at the feet of the Emperor and dirty my father's eyes."
I looked at him and smiled.
“You want to mortgage what?”
“Whose destiny do you want to follow?”
He didn't think at all.
“Power.”
“This prince is the most noble prince in the imperial city. I want to pledge my own power to continue the destiny of my royal ancestor."
“If before tomorrow, the royal grandmother's condition still does not change, this prince will definitely behead you under the city gate.”
E that he must be disappointed. Because the dead person can only be him. Seeing that the Sixth Prince was about to enter a state of eternal invincibility, Co Minh of course could not stand by and watch. He was afraid. If this Highness leaves the Prime Minister's residence and something happens, even the Prime Minister's residence will not be free from involvement. Co Minh disregarded the noble status of the Sixth Prince and strictly ordered people to take him back to the palace. But the bodyguard next to the Sixth Prince immediately pulled out his weapon and threatened. In the end, Co Minh could only watch helplessly as the Sixth Prince pledged all his power. ## 5 Faced with the worried eyes of the three Gu family members, I once again summoned the Mortal Ministry. I turned to the record about the Sixth Prince. Under my guidance, the Sixth Prince respectfully prayed to heaven and signed a contract to prove that today's action was completely voluntary. Finally, I used his blood as ink. On the page recording authority, we draw two intersecting red lines. Very quickly, the light around the Sixth Prince became dim. The words on the page also disappeared simultaneously.
“The transaction is effective from today.”
When I finished saying that sentence, Co Minh staggered and fell backwards. ## 6 The next morning, a strange thing happened in the royal citadel. The Queen Mother, who had been bedridden for five years, suddenly and miraculously woke up. At the same time, the Sixth Prince was accused of teasing a woman who paid tribute to the emperor. That woman has recently been favored and loved by the emperor. She cried in front of the emperor, even causing a commotion in the court, begging the court to punish the Sixth Prince. It's not just that. The Luc Prince's involvement in the salt smuggling case was also investigated. This time, no matter how much the emperor loves him, he cannot openly cover up and disregard national law.
