C509 Firework City (2/2)

Hearing Feng Qing's agreement, the mayor of Tianshui City heaved a sigh of relief.

The remaining people did not dare to say a hundred thousand taels of silver anymore. They even added in what they had just said. They did not dare to not give face to Feng Qing, especially now when there were hundreds of thousands of slaves in Peony City that needed to be arranged and when Peony City was to be built in the future.

Where didn't they need money?

At this moment, they finally understood that the fund-raising efforts of Peony City were not digging their own graves. Instead, they were adding fuel to the fire. As one of the 12 cities in Peony City, how could they not have the money to settle slaves here?

Thinking up to this point, the eight City Governors were all furious.

”Since Your Highness and the other City Lords have decided on this, then I will follow you.” As Mu Ru Yue spoke, she took out the silver notes. He was also glad that he didn't trust others. That was why he always carried silver with him.

Otherwise, he would probably be embarrassed right now.

On the other side, Qing Xun received the donations and bowed to the crowd, ”Qing Xun thanks the City Lords, many thanks His Highness the Crown Prince and the Seventh Princess.”

At this moment, everyone was also raising funds.

Mu Ru Yue looked at Qing Xun and couldn't help but recall the terrifying past that was dominated by him. This person was truly too shrewd.

Soon, the fundraising was over.

”Ling'er.” Qing Xun gave the instruction, and Ling'er continued to use her inner force to shout, ”Thank you for your help in Peony City. We will definitely remember your name in our hearts. Now, the Peony Gathering will officially begin!”

Right after she said that, Mu Ru Yue heard a 'peng' sound. In the city, the fireworks exploded everywhere, forming a beautiful scenery in the sky.

After the fireworks exploded, it was in the shape of a peony in the sky. It looked like a peony blooming in the sky. Wherever the peonies went, there was no place for them to hide. However, Mu Ru Yue woke up from the beautiful scenery in front of her in the next second.

What a joke!

This was the first sound of fireworks?

So, it was fine to call it the opening ceremony of the Peony Assembly, yet you want to keep it a secret? What do we do now? Mu Ru Yue was a little flustered and hastily looked at Feng Qing. She saw that Feng Qing was still sitting calmly by her side, drinking tea.

He could not help but whisper, ”Your Highness, what should we do?”

Feng Qing was also a bit troubled as she did not expect this to be the time. Seeing Mu Ru Yue's anxious expression, Feng Qing thought for a moment before slowly getting up. He said to Qing Xun, ”City Lord, I am not feeling well. I will head back first.”

After she said that, the gazes of the crowd fell on Feng Qing.

Is he a fool!?

Mu Ru Yue was so enraged by Feng Qing that she almost collapsed. She just wanted to leave silently.

”Your Highness, may I know if Your Highness still needs someone to serve you?” ”How about I let Ling'er follow you?” Qing Xun looked worried. When Mu Ru Yue saw this, he braced himself and got up. ”There's no need. I'll accompany Your Highness back.”

After saying that, she dragged Feng Qing and ran outside.
