Chapter 165: Fighting for Favor!
"Ah?"
Qin Ming was stunned for a second after hearing what Meng Fan said.
What did he hear?
The people of Jinsha City imitated Zhang Zeduan and planned to offer him maids?
"What are they doing?"
Qin Ming couldn't help complaining.
Qin Ming had already rejected the maids offered by Zhang Zeduan before, but the people of Jinsha City were still like this?
It really made Qin Ming not know what to say.
"This prince rejected the maids offered by Zhang Taishou."
"Didn't they see it?"
Meng Fan said helplessly, "Your Highness, I have also told them."
"But they...don't listen!"
"Your Highness, you should go there in person..."
Qin Ming frowned slightly.
"In that case, then this prince will go there."
"It's a good time to see what they are trying to do."
......
On the streets of Jinsha City, the people gathered together, their faces excited.
Not far from them, in front of a simple table, an old man with gray hair was writing something on a piece of paper.
Several strong men next to him maintained the order of the team.
"Don't squeeze, line up, come one by one!"
"Those with girls of marriageable age at home will be given priority!"
It was finally the turn of the old man Zhao in the team, and he walked forward a few steps excitedly.
"Mr. Chen, take a look at my daughter!"
"Girl, show me to Mr. Chen. If you can be favored by the Sixth Prince and be taken as a maid, it will be a blessing from your previous life!"
Behind him, a timid girl raised her head and looked over.
The old man called Old Chen frowned, "Zhao's fifth son, how old is your girl? This is to select a maid for the Sixth Prince, not a child bride! What can a little girl of this age do?"
Old Zhao wiped the sweat from his forehead, "Old Chen, please take a look, maybe the Sixth Prince will like her..."
He pushed the girl, "Don't stand there stupidly, let Old Chen take a closer look."
The girl stiffened her neck, "Dad... I don't want to... be a maid for anyone..."
Although she was not very old, she knew roughly the fate of maids.
It is impossible to escape the end of a life of hard work!
Old Zhao was anxious and slapped the girl in the face.
"What do you know?! How many people want to be the maid of the Sixth Prince!"
"This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!"
The girl covered her face and started crying.
After all, the girl was his own daughter, so Old Man Zhao couldn't bear to do it, so he persuaded her softly.
"Girl, be obedient, Dad won't hurt you..."
Old Man Chen on the side had already waved his hand impatiently, "Don't make trouble here, next one!"
Old Man Zhao took Old Man Chen's hand and smiled, "Old Man Chen, Old Man Chen, give me another chance..."
But it was too late, the middle-aged men around them had already surrounded them and glared at them.
The Zhao family father and daughter were driven away from here, and Old Man Chen took a look at the latecomers.
When he saw the wrinkles around his eyes, his expression was already undisguised indifference.
"Didn't you hear? Those aged 28 to 38 are preferred!"
"You are a woman, why are you joining in the fun!"
The woman had thick rouge on her face, "Old Man Chen, what do you know? Maybe His Highness likes my type!"
"Go, go, next one!"
Old Man Chen was already a little impatient.
A cry came from the crowd in the distance.
Then, the crowd behind him quickly separated a passage.
Old Chen looked up, his face slightly changed.
"What are you doing?"
Qin Ming walked slowly past the crowd, looking at everyone with scrutiny.
Old Chen stood up quickly.
"Your Highness the Sixth Prince."
Qin Ming's sight fell on him.
After a glance, it fell on the table in front of him.
There was something written on a piece of paper there.
Qin Ming picked it up and took a look.
Old Chen subconsciously reached out, but soon stopped.
Qin Ming's face turned colder as he saw what was written on the paper.
Written on the paper were names.
From Meng Fan's mouth, how could Qin Ming not know the meaning of these names?
These people actually started to look for maids for him?
"What is this?"
Qin Ming slapped the paper on the table.
This action frightened the people around him.
They looked at Qin Ming in panic, and did not expect Qin Ming to be angry about it.
Old Chen explained stutteringly, "Sixth Prince, this... These are the people in Jinsha City who are going to select some maids to serve you."
Qin Ming stared at him coldly.
"Did this prince ask you to do this?"
His gaze was so cold that Old Chen dared not breathe.
In the face of this great pressure, Old Chen's face became paler and paler.
He mustered up the courage to say, "Sixth Prince, this is also the kindness of the people in Jinsha City."
"Your Highness treats us so well, we have nothing to repay, so we can only do this!"
A voice echoed in the crowd.
"Old Chen is right, Sixth Prince, even some masters have groups of maids in their mansions."
"Sixth Prince, just accept them..."
Qin Ming turned around, "Shut up!"
The crowd instantly became silent.
Qin Ming glanced around and sneered.
"You have nothing to repay, so you offer your daughter?"
Qin Ming had just arrived and saw a father and daughter.
That father and daughter were the father and daughter of the Zhao family!
Qin Ming could clearly see that the daughter of the old man Zhao did not want to be a maid.
But the old man Zhao didn't care and dragged his daughter here just for a chance to be a maid for himself!
It's ridiculous!
"You are parents, but you actually did such a thing! In this way, what's the difference between you and selling your daughter for fame?!"
Let's not talk about the maid brought by Zhang Zeduan, at least in Qin Ming's opinion.
Those women were all voluntary.
Qin Ming did not detect any resistance in their eyes.
All Qin Ming could feel was shyness.
But the people in Jinsha City were different.
In order to make their daughters Qin Ming's maids, they actually began to force them!
This made Qin Ming feel ashamed!
Qin Ming scolded.
Old Chen, who was listening on the side, looked at the father and daughter of the Zhao family not far away, and his face was crooked with anger.
He hurriedly explained to Qin Ming.
"Your Highness, it's not what you think!"
"It's not that we forced them, they also sincerely want to be your maids!"
"If you don't believe it, ask them!"
Qin Ming understood him at a glance, "Do you think this prince will believe it?"
The previous living example was right in front of him!
A strange voice sounded in the crowd.
"Your Highness, I volunteered!"
A slender figure stood up.
Facing Qin Ming's sight, she blushed.
But she still raised her head and tried to look at Qin Ming, "Your Highness, you have done so much for our Jinsha City. If I can serve you, it is also an honor for me!"
Qin Ming was speechless.
