deadly mantra

Chapter 1014 Aren’t you here to give money?
Ji Fanyin raised her eyebrows slightly, and was about to ask her when she had met Tuxia, when out of the corner of her eye she saw Cang Lie leading Pan Fei and others into the courtyard.

Ji Fanyin suppressed her smile, did not stand up, and only nodded slightly.

"Miss Ji!"

"Miss Ji."

Zhong Limeng and others first exchanged polite greetings and then handed over gifts for visiting.

Pan Fei patiently waited for Zhong Limeng to finish his polite words, and then quickly stepped forward, eager to express his intention. Suddenly, he saw Ji Fanyin stretch out her small hand, palm upward, and gesture towards her with a smile.

Pan Fei was stunned for a moment and asked, "Miss Ji, what does this mean?"

Ji Fanyin blinked in confusion:

"Aren't you here to give money?"

"Money?" Pan Fei shook his head: "There is no money."

Ji Fanyin blinked and looked at Pan Fei again:
"There's none?"

Zhonglimeng explained slightly awkwardly:
"Pan Fei and I are the personal guards of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. It is our duty to be loyal to the emperor and capture fugitives, and to maintain the stability of the city. We declined the reward."

Ji Fanyin nodded and agreed with her words:
"I think what you said makes sense. We agreed before that the bounty will be divided into three parts. If you refuse your respective shares, just give me my share."

"This..." hesitated.

"My share is gone too?!" he exclaimed.

"Uh... yes."

Ji Fanyin waved her little hand nonchalantly, looking very magnanimous:
"Well, it's okay. I'll ask the person in the palace for it later."

Pan Fei opened his eyes unexpectedly and couldn't believe what he heard: "You lack that little money?!" Ji Fanyin replied matter-of-factly:
"It's lacking, why isn't it lacking?"

33 taels of gold can buy a lot of things.

Pan Fei said: "You are the master of the Qifei Palace, how rich you are. 33 taels of gold is considered a huge sum of money in an ordinary person's home, but here, you are bleeding through your fingers every day. I don’t even know how much more money I got out.”

Ji Fanyin smiled: "Miss Pan, I am a reasonable person, and you must be too. Let's do the math. You and Miss Zhong, one is from Yanxue Kingdom, and the other is the person who follows the crown prince. You serve the royal family and bring benefits to the people. That is your duty. You have clean sleeves and noble character, and do not ask for rewards for your duties. However, I am not from the Yanxue Kingdom, and secondly, I am not from your government. I am just a common man. When I see an injustice on the road, I draw my sword to help. Should I get the bounty that I deserve and that the government proactively promised?"

Zhongli Meng's face was on fire and he nodded repeatedly: "Miss Ji is right. We shouldn't take the initiative to make the decision and refused Miss Ji's share of the bounty on behalf of Miss Ji. I will enter the palace after a while and report this to His Highness the Crown Prince. If so, I will send you the bounty."

Although Pan Fei was a little surprised, after thinking about it carefully, he agreed with Zhong Limeng's statement.

They really shouldn't make the decision for her.

"Then I am also at fault for this matter. I will go into the palace with Zhong Mei later and explain to His Highness the Crown Prince."

Ji Fanyin nodded slightly satisfied.

These two people have good attitudes. They know their mistakes, can correct them, and can be saved.

But why explain to Xuan Benben?

Ji Fanyin asked: "What does the bounty have to do with Prince Xuan?"

Zhongli Meng slowly explained: "Miss Ji doesn't know something. Early this morning, Her Royal Highness the Queen made another announcement that the serial murder case will be taken over by Her Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

When Ji Fanyin heard this, the corner of his lips couldn't help but twitch: "Where is that Minister Miao? He doesn't care?"
