Seeing that Rong Qi's expression was calm, the jailer also went out. Rong Qi sat down, closed his eyes and thought carefully, what should he do next?

When Steward Chen saw Master Rong coming out, he hurriedly greeted him and sent a piece of clothing to Master Rong: "Master, change into this shirt first, so as not to get bad luck!" Master Rong pushed his shirt: "No need, go back and take a bath together." What does anyone want to do when I come in? ”

"Someone will inevitably make trouble, but everyone is still quiet!" Steward Chen's answer did not surprise Master Rong, he looked back and said, "I don't know what will happen until something happens!" ”

"Yes, master, don't say anything else, the third master thought of replacing the master first, otherwise, ......" Steward Chen's words were interrupted by Master Rong: "You don't have to say good things about him, I'm in there, it's always inconvenient for you to do things, and it's always convenient to wait for me to come out." ”

Having said that, there was still a smile on Old Man Rong's lips, this kid, he was really right, but why did he have to be so stubborn and marry such a daughter-in-law? Master Rong thought as he walked, and he had already walked to the hall.

Seeing Master Rong stepping in, the little guy waiting there immediately greeted him: "Master, I have already ordered them to send hot water, but it is ......"

"If you have something to say, but what?" Steward Chen scolded, and the little guy replied: "Just now, the Zheng family sent someone to deliver the letter, saying that the money has been sent in prison, and they will go to beg the master of the Hou Mansion to let the master rest assured!" ”

The Zheng family? Master Rong's brows furrowed, and then he flicked his sleeves: "Peace of mind? The third child is now their son-in-law, and it is common for their family to be saved! After speaking, Master Rong walked inside: "Where is the hot water?" Where's the clothes, I'm going to change. ”

The little servant hurriedly followed to serve, and when Master Rong saw that Steward Chen was about to follow, he waved him out: "You go and find the shopkeeper in this capital, and see how much silver we can use in this capital?" Steward Chen responded to a few words, and when he saw Master Rong walking into the house, Steward Chen couldn't help but smile, the old man was just hard-mouthed, and his heart had already softened.

Or hurry up and look for the shopkeeper and see how much money you can use? It is a big deal not to ask for silver over there when you get it, but you can't send it here.

Rong Qi slept in prison all night, not knowing that they were busy with themselves outside. At noon on the second day, people came to take the locked merchants out. Rong Qi knew that this was the one behind the scenes, and he wanted to ask people for silver one by one. This is faster than he thought, and it seems that he is not unaware of priorities.

Rong Qi followed everyone to a large courtyard, and the officials asked them to wait outside, and then went into the house to report.

"Look at it like this, I'm afraid of a lot of silver this time!" Someone was already muttering there, causing the officials to shout and scold: "Be quiet! ”

Rong Qi also thought in his heart, the official had already walked out, first brought a person, after this person entered, after half a meal, he came out, seeing him walk out with a painful face, everyone knew that he was only afraid of losing a lot of silver, but it was good to be able to leave here.

Then the second one, and the third one, all came out with a painful look on their faces. Rong Qi entered in the fourth place, and when he entered, he saw a ruby ring on his finger sitting above him wearing a python robe, which was the size of two fingertips. There are also some torture instruments listed next to it, and the officials are also arranged according to the shift, although they also look like a judge, after all, they are nondescript.

Rong Qi originally thought that he would not see this nobleman, but he came out in person, and he felt a little strange in his heart. Seeing that Rong Qi only looked at him and didn't do anything after he came in, the little eunuch who served beside the eunuch had already coughed lightly.

Only then did Rong Qi look at the eunuch, and then knelt down in the center: "Say hello to the old man, the old man is well!" ”

"Hey, this kid, it's still a little interesting." The eunuch listened to Rong Qi's words, and then raised his eyes to look at Rong Qi, and said this in a long voice.

"Grandpa, this is the third master of the Rong family, the Rong family is a big merchant in Yangzhou, open a salt plant, and make a fortune!" The little eunuch immediately said to the eunuch.

"Rich? It's good to get rich, but I'm afraid they won't get rich. The eunuch said this in a long voice, seeing that Rong Qi still did not move, the eunuch's eyebrows couldn't help frowning slightly, it is said that at this time, shouldn't he take the initiative to say how much silver he wants to give to himself? Instead of kneeling here like this, is this man a fool?

The little eunuch observed the words and looks, and had already spoken: "Grandpa will be fifty in August, fiftieth birthday, I want to ask you, but what is there to honor?" "This is really naked, Rong Qi couldn't help but smile slightly.

This smile made the eunuch frown, the first few were very smooth, but this is different from others, is it stupid, when the little eunuch had already signaled to the officials whether to move the killing stick, Rong Qi had already spoken: "The old man's fiftieth birthday, we are the younger generations, it is not up to the old man to say, it should be filial piety!" ”

There was still some truth in what he said, and the little eunuch motioned for the officials to stay there with his eyes, and asked Rong Qi: "Then tell me, how much filial piety can you give?" Yangzhou Rong family, the family always has three or four hundred thousand silver, the old man is a kind person, leave you 200,000 taels, and the rest will be all for the old man to do the silver of his birthday! ”

This appetite is really a bit high, Rong Qi looked at the eunuch and said slowly: "This is good, but looking down, the old man's move is very unwise!" ”

Unwise? As soon as these two words came out, the little eunuch changed color: "The old man is a soft-hearted person, thinking that after serving in this palace for so many years, he should go back to his hometown in fine clothes, so he brought you here and asked for some silver for travel expenses, why is it unwise?" ”

"The old man wants to pay for the journey, we should be very filial, very filial. But the old man's move was not to be talked about, and at this moment, the rumors had already reached the ears of Banzai who was patrolling outside. ”

"You, you, you, don't you know how powerful? Who doesn't know that grandpa is the most caring person around Banzai? The little eunuch's voice grew sharper and sharper.

"If the old man is not a close friend by Banzai's side, how can he be entrusted with the important task of Banzai and stay in Beijing?" Rong Qi was not frightened by the little eunuch's threat, and his voice became more and more peaceful, which made the eunuch raise his eyes to look at him again, this time not looking, but looking at Rong Qi seriously.

After looking at the eunuch, he snorted coldly: "You kid, you are really young, and you haven't gone through much." ”

"Naturally, there are not as many things that the old man has passed through. Moreover, there is also a popular saying among the people, a companion is like a tiger, and the old man can become a caring person around Long Live and naturally knows how to behave well. These are absolutely beyond the reach of the next. Rong Qi's voice was still so respectful, but the little eunuch screamed again: "Nonsense, dare to say this, I, I'm afraid that you don't know how to write dead words!" ”

"It's just a colloquialism." The eunuch waved his hand and continued to look at Rong Qi: "You don't want to provoke me, you must know that since I dare to do this, I will definitely let Your Majesty know that I am doing this for his good, not relying on his reputation to do anything wrong." ”

If it is really an old ginger, Rong Qi felt a little more relaxed, but there is also a saying that a newborn calf is not afraid of tigers, so let yourself be a newborn calf. Rong Qi looked up at the eunuch, his face was respectful but his eyes were very clear, the eunuch looked at his eyes, his eyebrows couldn't help frowning slightly, for so many years, it has been a long time since he saw such a clear and firm look.

The eunuch couldn't help but think of the past, but soon the eunuch shook his head, what is closer in this world than silver? This time, I will get enough money at a time, so that I can go back to spend my old age in peace, and retire for the elderly, who wants to think about anything else?

The eunuch was about to speak, but Rong Qi had already said: "The old man is serving by Banzai's side, so he naturally understands Banzai's mind better than us people." In Xia Dou asked the old man, you can promise to let Banzai know that you are for his good in this matter. This is now, what about the future, in three years or two years? Long live around, there will never be a shortage of people to serve, and there will never be a shortage of people who want to trample people down! ”

In the last sentence, Rong Qi used almost all his strength to speak, the little eunuch's face changed suddenly, not only the little eunuch, but even the eunuch's expression changed slightly, and the little eunuch had already shouted: "Nonsense, our grandfather has been approved by Long Live Grace, and he will return to his hometown in two years to retire, and he will ...... at that time."

"What about three or two years in a year? If Banzai remembers this incident, or is mentioned by someone who cares, and tells the whole story in front of Banzai? The old man originally wanted to use this money to benefit the township and make the hometown parents feel thankful. But if someone really wants to talk about this matter in front of Banzai, then the old man's kindness will all turn into malice towards the father and elder of his hometown! ”

Rong Qi saw that their faces changed, and they took advantage of the victory to pursue, this is the only opportunity, we must grasp it, otherwise, there will be another chance in the future.

"Nonsense, it's just some people who are doing business, how can they ......" The little eunuch's words were interrupted by Rong Qi again: "Although they are all doing business, coming and going in the wind and rain, who doesn't have a clan?" Who doesn't have relatives? Whose family members and relatives don't have a person who has made a weapon? This silver is supposed to come from the hands of people in the world, and anyone can take it, but if it annoys the old man, then someone will fight to break the family and take the silver to buy people's mouths. ”

With a snap, the eunuch had already slapped the table with a startling wood, and he looked at Rong Qi, his eyes were already annoyed: "Are you threatening our family?" ”

"I didn't mean to threaten the old man, I just said a possibility. The old grandfather has been in the palace for decades, and he must know more about the world than he knows a lot of things. What can be thought of in the next, the old man may not be able to think of it. Rong Qi looked at the eunuch, still speaking in a calm tone, which made the eunuch's brows furrow again, and he looked at Rong Qi inquiringly.
