Wen Gui was furious. This matter had been cleared up long ago, so why was it that they were still the ones who had to pay for the damaged mecha craft, should it not be Madam Lian who should pay for the damage?
" Master Wen is getting angry for no reason," Gu Lao, the new official in charge smiled at Wen Gui and then calmly said, " Your wife, Madam Mo might already know that she was the one who signed the documents regarding the mecha craft. It does not matter who damaged it, the one who signed the document will be the one who has to pay for it, this is the law and we cannot do anything about it."
This was in fact a loop hole and everyone knew about it but so what? Mo Yan was no longer the general and it was Madam Wei who was in charge of the imperial army. What could Mo Yan and Wen Gui do other than listen to the ones who were in power after being reduced to being mere commoners?
" You!"
"But of course, if you don't want to pay the money then," Gu Lao with her sly grin added, " You can always send one of your daughters to work as the slave for the imperial family. I will suggest that you send Mo Qiang, she is good for nothing, with no skills and a dormant core, that awakens and collapses at any time, It is a waste of space to keep her at your house, so why not hand her over to us and shake off the interest that you have collected over your debt?"
Wen Gui stared at the two women who were being shameless in front of him and sneered, " Why don't bury you ten feet under the ground and you say the same thing all over again a total of a hundred times, if you succeed then I will think about handing my daughter to you, as an interest?"
Mo Yan on the other hand, calmly pushed Wen Gui behind her and then looked at Gu Lao and her companion. She blinked her blue eyes and asked, " Is this the order of her majesty or someone else?"
" Does it matter?" Gu Lao chuckled softly.
" It does," Mo Yan spoke slowly as she unleashed her aura causing Gu Lao and her companion to stiffen under the heavy pressure that was being placed on their shoulders. It was as if hundreds of tons had been pressed on their shoulders without them getting a chance to breathe. " If it's the order of Her Majesty. Then I will think about it but if it's the order of someone else then I will have to question and investigate why she is suddenly interested in my daughter."
