144 Dark Tide
Time is passing little by little.
Ah Huan wrapped up the east wall, sat in front of Jiang Ruoning, and looked at her distressedly, "Senior sister, why don't you let Li Gongzi elope with you, with the skills of the two of you, you can live wherever you go." β
Jiang Ruoning shook his head with a smile, "Senior sister, if you can go, why don't you go?" If he doesn't leave, he must have some last resort. Senior sister, I thought that if Shaoyou had no parents, no one in the Li family would be able to stop us from being together, but I didn't expect it...... After all, I didn't expect that the calculations and battles in the mansion gate were unimaginable. β
Ah Huan has been observing around, do she want to tell Senior Sister SΓΉ that there is Murong Lang in the west wall, and he heard every word Jiang Ruoning said when Li Guan played the piano from beginning to end.
However, Murong Lang said to her, "Miss Shang, for the sake of your senior sister, I must not tell what I heard and saw, you have to believe me, I will not hurt your senior sister." β
It doesn't hurt!
Looking at it, Murong Lang is sincere.
Two were born on the same day, the same month, the same year, this is fate, and it is even more rare to be born at the same time, and they have spent their birthdays together.
Li Guan came at the moment of the unitary hour, his face was pale and bloodless, followed by Sixteen and an unknown servant, he said coldly, "Three hundred and fifty thousand taels of silver tickets, I ...... It's all brought! β
Jiang Ruoning took it and counted them one by one.
Sixteen's face was full of worry.
And the other guy doesn't let go of every detail.
"Li Shaoyou, is it great to be rich? Ha ha...... Senior sister, find a store to get a brazier, 300,000 taels, in my Jiang Ruoning's eyes, it is a pile of shit, I would rather burn it than cheap your Li family. If you want a secret recipe, you will accompany me to burn the silver ticket. β
Li Guan's body shook for a moment, this is the Jiang Ruoning he knows, he doesn't love money, and he would rather burn it than ask for it.
Sixteen hurriedly said: "Miss Jiang." You ......" He wanted to tell the truth.
The guy in the back coughed lightly.
Sixteen felt distressed for Li Guan, and looked at Jiang Ruoning anxiously.
"Li Shaoyou, you humiliated me, used me, and calculated me, I want to return them all to you today! You two people. Do you want to see how I humiliate your son-in-law, then open the door and let the entire capital see clearly. β
Sixteen immediately closed the door.
Li Guan's body shook again, it was he who failed her, but he really had no choice. He knew that he had hurt her, but then, she hugged him and said in a very low voice: "Shaoyou, what's wrong with you?" Is it that they want to coerce you, how can a person like you be willing to be at their mercy and swim less...... You like this make my heart ache to watch. I want a silver ticket, and I'll leave it to you. I don't want you to be trapped. I don't want you to lose your freedom......"
He looked at her face steadily, "You guessed it a long time ago?" β
"Yes, I guessed it. When I came, I found that something was wrong, but you didn't arrive for a long time, in Qingxi County before, every time we meet, you always arrive first, and you are never willing to let me wait for a long time. The east wall room was wrapped, and there were the descendants of the Li family and the girl of the seven county lords. They're keeping an eye on you all the time.
Shaoyou, I'm sorry, I broke your heart. None of what I said before was intentional. I just want them to believe it. This is 350,000 taels of silver tickets, you put it away carefully, I asked my sister to prepare a stack of fakes, and in a while, I will burn the fakes.
Shaoyou, I believe in you. Just like the trust you put in me. You have to take good care of yourself, if something happens to you, I will destroy the entire Li family! β
Jiang Ruoning hugged Li Guan tightly, as if he wanted to connect with him.
"Fool, fool, I can guess that you have no choice, why can't you tell the truth from the falsehood of my words, four years, four years of emotion, we already know each other well. Shaoyou, the pain you suffer will only make me feel more distressed. Shaoyou, you sue me, what did they do to you? You sue me, you don't want to bear it alone. β
The little guy who came with me was afraid that it was the eyes and ears sent by Second Master Li, in order to perform this play well, Jiang Ruoning suddenly raised his voice: "You bastard, let me go!" If I want money, I'd rather burn it than give it to you, and I won't give it to you. β
Li Guan has never acted like this, this time he looked outside, and happened to see the henchman sent by the second master Li looking outside, and said jerkyly: "Ah! We've known each other for four years, if you don't want it, just give it to me! β
"If you don't give it, I won't give it even if I burn it, do you want to trick me? Here's a fake, this one is actually fake, don't you Li family want the secret recipe. β
"Impossible! This is the silver ticket that my second uncle has prepared. β
"What can't be? This is clearly fake, you take it yourself to see, you want the secret recipe, and you actually fool me with a fake silver ticket. β
Between truth and falsehood, Murong Lang of the Xibi family was directly confused.
These two people are really full of twists and turns, Jiang Ruoning is very smart, how can he like this kind of nerd, and he was so angry that he vomited blood because of Jiang Ruoning's words earlier.
Li Guan shouted loudly to the outside: "Liu San! β
The little guy pushed the door and entered.
Li Guan took out a silver ticket of 100,000 taels: "Miss Jiang said it was fake, and said, what the hell is going on?" β
The little servant hesitated for a moment and took the silver ticket, "It shouldn't be, this is what the second master asked the second wife to take, this can't be fake." β
Jiang Ruoning snorted coldly, "You really think I am a village girl, regardless of whether it is true or false, and take a few fake silver tickets to coax me, right?" Sister! Sister! β
Ah Huan was holding a brazier in her hand and was going upstairs to the private room, "Senior sister, what's wrong?" β
"Go, bring the shopkeeper of the nearest money bank, and ask him to defend the authenticity of these silver tickets for me, I can sue you for using fake silver tickets in the "Law of Dayan", this is going to be imprisoned, if your Li family dares to take it, I will dare to poke this matter out."
It's over, it's over, how can there be a fake silver ticket in this?
Liu San was startled, and went with Ah Huan to invite the shopkeeper of the nearest money bank.
The shopkeeper held 350,000 taels of silver tickets and checked them one by one, "Yes, these two 100,000 taels and this 50,000 taels are fake." β
There are two fakes, and there are actually two fakes.
Jiang Ruoning smashed the silver ticket on Li Guan's face, "Li Gongzi, are you humiliating me, take a fake silver ticket to buy the secret recipe, your Li family is like this again, believe it or not, I will speak later, and let other merchants bid for the secret recipe." β
In the past few years, the Li family has made a lot of money because of the return of vegetarian ointment and penicillin.
"Don't be angry! Don't be angry, I ...... I immediately asked Liu San to go back and figure out a way. Liu San, quickly take these silver tickets back, hurry up and find the second master, how can you take fake silver tickets, if the court investigates it, it will be a crime. β
Liu San took the silver ticket and got into the carriage on the opposite street with a cigarette.
Ah Huan sent away the shopkeeper of the money bank, and rewarded the shopkeeper with two taels of silver for his hard-earned money.
Jiang Ruoning saw Liu San leaving, "Shaoyou, is there anyone else staring at you?" β
"No, this Liu San is not only the second uncle's henchman, but also the nursing home of the Li Mansion, the son of Liu Hu, the chief housekeeper of the Li family, and the companion of the second wife."
Sixteen looked surprised, listened to them, and then noticed something unusual, "Childe, you and Miss Jiang ......"
"Miss Jiang guessed early in the morning, she was helping me."
"Miss Jiang knows that my third wife is not dead, but she was put under house arrest by the second master."
Jiang Ruoning's face was shocked: "Auntie...... was put under house arrest by Second Master Li? β
Sixteen nodded affirmatively, "Earlier, the fourth and seventh sons thought that the third wife was gone. Until March this year, the second master sent someone to send a letter to the fourth son, saying that the third wife was in their hands, and the fourth son dug up the third wife's tomb at night and found that it was empty. It turned out that the third wife was not sick, but poison, which was poisoned by someone sent by the second master of Li, which would make people fake their death and fall asleep, and when they woke up, they would vomit poisonous blood, which could be eradicated with antidote. β
Jiang Ruoning was a little confused.
Li Guandao: "My mother is indeed not dead, when I received the letter from the second master, I didn't believe it, so I came to the capital overnight, because I didn't know the truth, I lied to you that I came to the capital to check the business." When I arrived at the second master's house and saw my mother in the backyard of his house, I learned the truth. Earlier, they always wanted the three-room property, and coveted my mother's rich dowry, the second master and the second wife once forced my mother to hand it over, but my mother refused.
Later, they drugged my mother and pretended to be sick. Our brothers didn't know the truth, so they buried my mother, and they sent someone to take my mother away to detoxify and recuperate.
I wanted to force our brother to hand it over as early as three years ago, but he suddenly knew that the business of Nianci'an Pharmaceutical Workshop was booming, so he had another idea to let our brother run Nianci'an to grow. Now, Nian Ci'an is famous for Dayan, and the paste is even more profitable, so he thought of luring me to come to Beijing and forcing me to hand over the property of Nian Ci'an and Sanfang.
In order to control me, he forced me to marry the lord of the seven counties of the Min Palace. β
Jiang Ruoning's eyelids drooped slightly, "Aren't they afraid that the Seven County Lords will face you?" β
Sixteen took over and said: "Miss Jiang, how can there be such a good thing in the world, the person that the Lord of the Seven Counties really likes is the Fifth Prince!" Seeing that Jiang Ruoning still didn't understand, "The fifth prince has already married a wife and started a family, how can he marry her again, but the seventh county lord is not reconciled, he must marry into the Li Mansion, and when he heard that the Li family's three-room family is a big business, he moved his mind and wanted to get a piece of the pie." She clearly married the fourth son, but she had already secretly crossed the warehouse with the fifth son, and she married just to renew the love with the fifth son...... She...... She wants to learn from Song Liangyuan. β
Jiang Ruoning was even more confused.
Outside the door, Ah Huan was carefully staring, not letting anyone approach.
"What does it have to do with Song Liangyuan?"
Sixteen hurriedly said: "Miss Jiang is such a smart person, haven't you heard the rumors in the capital recently, saying that Song Liangyuan married the second prince as a concubine in her early years, but in fact, she was a pawn of the prince by the second prince's side, Song Liangyuan has long been the prince's person, and marrying the second prince is to harm him."
If the seventh county lord wants to harm the fourth son of my family, he can get the family business of the third room, and then marry the fifth son with the family business. At that time, she can rely on her identity and money to force the fifth prince to comply......"
Murong Lang in the west wall room heard this, and his face changed greatly.
Could it be that in the border cities of northern Xinjiang back then, even the successive defeats were deliberately done by someone, and the second prince died on the battlefield, and he was also killed by calculations. And this person, most likely Song Liangyuan and the crown prince, is too appalling. (To be continued.) )
