During breakfast, Zhang Zong and the other two were a little absent-minded. After all, there was no news since Li Dan went to the palace, and I don’t know if he had gotten the manuscript back. It would be best if everything went well, but if it was not brought back and even discovered by Wu Meiniang, it would be bad.

It was because of the above concern that Zhang Zong and others were very anxious, but Li Dan couldn't wait on the left or right. Finally, seeing that the morning was about to pass, the sound of a carriage came from outside, which made Zhang Zong and the other two almost jump up and then quickly walked outside the yard.

It was indeed Li Dan's carriage outside the door. After the carriage stopped in front of the door, Li Dan jumped out of the carriage, but he looked dejected at this moment, which made Zhang Zong and the other two feel hearts sank. But then Taiping jumped out of the car with a smile on his face, which made Zhang Zong frown.

"Where is my manuscript?" Zhang Zong immediately stepped forward and asked Taiping. They had not slept well for several nights because of the manuscript. Now they were waiting for the whole morning uneasy, so Zhang Zong was also full of anger.

"What does your manuscript mean? Whoever gets it will belong to you? Now the manuscript is in my hands, it is my manuscript!" Taiping put his hands on his hips and said with an unreasonable expression.

"You..." Zhang Zong was so angry that he almost took action, but considering the other party's identity, if he really did, he might be beaten to death by the guards beside Taiping.

"Taiping! Stop making trouble, let's talk about it later!" Li Dan finally came out to hold Taiping up. After saying that, he winked at Zhang Zong and Xue Shao, and then the few people entered the living room together.

"Taiping, it's wrong for you to steal the sir. Now you have to hand over the things!" As soon as you entered the living room, Li Dan immediately said to Taiping righteously.

"No, just don't. Fourth brother, you actually helped outsiders. I'm angry!" Taiping didn't listen to Li Dan at all, but instead started to criticize Li Dan, which made Li Dan very embarrassed.

In fact, after Li Dan found Taiping yesterday, he told the other party about the seriousness of the matter. However, after hearing this, Taiping not only did not intend to repay the things, but also had to come to Zhang Zong personally to discuss conditions, which left him with no choice but to take her out of the palace again.

Zhang Zong calmed down at this time, and at the same time he saw Taiping's intention. He immediately suppressed his anger and calmed himself down and said, "Tell me, what exactly should you do to return the manuscript to me?"

"Hehe, you finally got it done!" Taiping smiled proudly, which made Xue Shao next to him so angry that he wanted to come forward to curse, but was stopped by Zhang Zong. Xue Shao is not suitable for speaking now, because as soon as he opens his mouth, there will be Taiping quarrels. At that time, this girl is angry and may really do something irrational.

Taiping seemed very satisfied with her taking the initiative, but she smiled proudly again and said, "I've said it a long time ago. You'll promise me a hundred bottles of perfume. If you gave it to me earlier, wouldn't there be nothing left?"

"One hundred bottles of perfume, right? OK! I promise you, but you must give me the manuscript immediately!" Zhang Zong was so angry that he wanted to vomit blood. He obviously agreed to only ten bottles at the beginning, but now he has increased ten times. But there is no way. Now he can only agree to the other party first and take the manuscript back before talking about it.

"No, I hand over the perfume with one hand and the manuscript in the other hand. When will a hundred bottles of perfume be delivered to me, and when will I return the manuscript to you again!" Taiping said arrogantly again.

"You..." Zhang Zong's anger surged again. This was not his fault. The main reason was that this girl really didn't know the importance of it. The manuscript was left with her, just like a time bomb. Wu Meiniang might find out at any time. He would be the one who was unlucky at that time.

"Taiping, last time, Wan'er almost lost her life just because of a story. Do you want to make your husband unlucky this time?" Li Dan also came forward and asked in anger. He rarely talked to Taiping like this, but this time she was too distorted.

Taiping was afraid of Li Hong, but he was not afraid of Li Dan at all. She raised her little face again and said proudly: "Fourth brother, don't be so stupid as I think, okay? Of course, I know that the manuscript cannot be discovered by my mother, so I have already hidden the manuscript in a very safe place and will never be discovered by anyone!"

"Are you sure? Your mother's eyes are everywhere in the palace. Not to mention such a thick manuscript, even if you bring back a piece of paper, your mother may find out!" Xue Shao finally couldn't help asking.

"Who said I took it back to the palace? Do you think I would be as stupid as you, and didn't even think of this?" Taiping mocked with a proud look on his face. After she got the manuscript, she also thought of what happened last time, so she had already made preparations. This is also the reason why Li Dan didn't get the manuscript, because he couldn't find it at all.

"Then where did you put the manuscript?" Zhang Zong asked immediately.

"I won't tell you, I'm not in the palace anyway, and that place is very safe. No one except me knows. At that time, as long as you give me the perfume, I will tell you where to collect the manuscript." Taiping said proudly again. Although she likes perfume very much, she can't use up a hundred bottles of perfume, but she just wants it, and she must get what she wants.

Zhang Zong finally felt a little relieved when he heard this. The manuscript was not in the palace, and it was not in Taiping's hands. Even if Wu Meiniang found the manuscript, she could not do anything to him. However, it would be better to take the manuscript back, after all, it was too dangerous in the hands of the girl Taiping.

"Okay! I will do my best to make perfume for you during this period. I hope you will not break your promise then!" Zhang Zong nodded heavily immediately.

"A word is determined!" Taiping said as he stretched out his white and tender palms and signaled Zhang Zong to swear to swear.

Zhang Zong was not polite, and immediately slapped the other party three times. The vow was made, but Zhang Zong quickly remembered something again, so he spoke again: "You can wait until the manuscript is returned to me in the future, but can you return the other things you took from me now?"

"Stingy, I don't care about your little things!" Taiping rolled his eyes at Zhang Zong when he heard this, and then went outside the door to instruct someone to pick up things. In a short while, a palace maid sent a small wooden box to the living room and then retreated.

Zhang Zong opened the wooden box and looked at it, but then frowned and asked Taiping again: "Where is the cactus?"

"What kind of cactus?" Taiping asked in confusion after hearing this.
