Daohua: "You wouldn’t understand."

Under Ma Teng’s lead, Xiao Yeyang and his men left the border town and walked about two kilometers to a fairly sizable horse ranch.

"This horse ranch was originally left by our ancestors, unfortunately, due to unstable situations over the years and constant raids from Xiliao people, I had to shut it down."

"Since Lord Xiao needs many horses, I had the horse traders drive the horses here to this ranch."

While talking, Ma Teng led Xiao Yeyang and his men into the horse ranch.

Soon, they saw a group of Xiliao people gathered in the distance.

"You wait here by the carriage."

Daohua glanced at the Xiliao people in the distance and nodded.

Then, Xiao Yeyang, along with Defu and Bu Gandang and a few others, walked towards the Xiliao people.

...

"Yelu, this man here is Lord Xiao who wishes to buy horses," Ma Teng said with a smile as he introduced Xiao Yeyang to the horse trader from Xiliao.

Yelu Baichi glanced sideways at Xiao Yeyang: "Did you bring the silver? I don’t accept any silver notes."

Xiao Yeyang was unfazed by Yelu Baichi’s demeanor, "Previously Mr. Ma mentioned that I could purchase with gold. It’s inconvenient to carry too much silver, so I brought gold."

Yelu Baichi: "Gold... alright, let me have a look."

Xiao Yeyang looked back in the direction of the carriage, and quickly, eight Hidden Guards dressed as ordinary people brought down four wooden boxes from the carriage.

Once the Hidden Guards arrived, Xiao Yeyang had Defu open the boxes.

Looking at the glittering gold bars, Yelu Baichi nodded in satisfaction and gave Ma Teng a smile: "You’ve found a good buyer. We can continue working together next time."

Xiao Yeyang signaled Defu to close the boxes and turned to Yelu Baichi, "Now, I would like to see the horses."

Yelu Baichi replied with a smile, "Of course." He put a whistle to his lips and blew it, causing hundreds of horses to suddenly run through the ranch.

Seeing this, Xiao Yeyang furrowed his brows: "This isn’t the right amount, I asked for two thousand horses, but there are clearly only a few hundred here."

Yelu Baichi chuckled, "Good eyesight, it is indeed just five hundred. But you should be content, let me tell you, the Imperial Family of Xiliao has tightened control over horse sales in recent years. I was able to get these five hundred because I have solid connections. Otherwise, you wouldn’t even be able to buy five hundred."

Seeing Xiao Yeyang’s face darken, Ma Teng quickly interjected with a smile, "Brother Yelu, didn’t we agree on two thousand fine horses? Could you possibly..."

Yelu Baichi cut him off impatiently, "I told you it’s only five hundred. Can’t you understand human speech?"

Xiao Yeyang glanced at Defu, who promptly signalled the Hidden Guards to carry away three of the boxes.

Seeing this, Yelu Baichi hurriedly intervened, "What are you doing?"

Xiao Yeyang looked at him expressionlessly, "I brought gold for two thousand fine horses. Since you’ve only brought five hundred, I naturally need to take back the surplus gold."

Yelu Baichi’s face turned cold, "I’ve never heard of taking back what’s already been presented. If you want these five hundred horses today, you have to leave all the boxes."

Xiao Yeyang regarded Yelu Baichi, "Are you trying to rob me?"

Yelu Baichi scoffed lightly, "Don’t put it so harshly, I’m a trader."

Xiao Yeyang: "I need to take both the horses and the extra gold."

At this, the Xiliao men behind Yelu Baichi quickly formed a circle around them, each drawing their swords.

Though Yelu Baichi often did business at the border and was used to being arrogant and overbearing, seeing no great reaction from the other side made him suddenly aware that these were not people to be trifled with.

In the ensuing silence, Yelu Baichi’s gaze fell upon Daohua and Mei Lan, Mei Ju, standing in front of the carriage. Daohua was veiled and her face not visible, but Mei Lan and Mei Ju’s beauty was clear to see.

Particularly attracted to Daxia beauties and recalling the creamy, tender skin of the Daxia noblewoman the Crown Prince had married, Yelu Baichi found himself itching with desire.

Seeing the attractiveness of Mei Lan and Mei Ju tempted him towards Daohua,

"If the maids are this beautiful, the master must be of exquisite beauty."

Noticing Yelu Baichi’s gaze, a cold light flickered in Xiao Yeyang’s eyes, yet Yelu Baichi, completely unconcerned, bluntly proposed, "You can take these five hundred fine horses, but leave that woman with me."

At this, Defu, standing nearby, shuddered involuntarily and glared at Yelu Baichi as if looking at a dead man.
