In Qin Baichuan's opinion, these things in Splendid Villa are no longer a problem, and a bigger conspiracy has been overwhelmed, and he doesn't want to get involved in this whirlpool. Therefore, he didn't bother with the steward Lin anymore, but set his eyes on Cheng Yanran: "Miss Cheng, the Splendid Villa is nothing more than a family of merchants, and I have never thought of being even more reluctant to intervene in any power dispute. ”

Qin Baichuan thought about it in his heart, and said calmly: "Qin can set up a note of 30,000 taels of silver, you let us go, and after we go back to Jiangling, I will ask someone to send the silver." ”

"Qin bastard, ...... you" Xue Shihan was slightly stunned, when she thought about Qin Baichuan, this person was radical and stubborn, and she didn't know what it meant to retreat, but today she was afraid? Sue for peace? But even so, 30,000 taels of silver is not a small amount, how can you decide with a mere minister?

Of course, Qin Baichuan didn't lie this time, and even he had already thought about the source of the 30,000 taels of silver. It is definitely impossible to let Qu Xi bear this expense, but don't forget that when he rescued Meng Xiaoling, Qin Baichuan still held an IOU of 100,000 taels of silver from Master Qu Si in his hand.

"Splendid Villa is really rich." Cheng Yanran didn't say anything, but Miyamoto Nishiki's eyes lit up. Their purpose in kidnapping Chen Heming was really for silver, and from this point of view, half of the purpose was achieved.

"Looks like you're interested." Qin Baichuan breathed a sigh of relief in his heart: "There is a second thing, I am not interested in knowing who the master behind you is, but Li Jian is the only son of Duke Desheng, if you dare to touch a single hair of him, I am afraid that even if you go to heaven and earth, Duke Desheng will not spare you." If you want money, you don't need to get to that point. ”

"Listen to you, is there a solution?" Miyamoto Nishiki asked in a stiff eulogy.

"I still have silver." Qin Baichuan rubbed his temples: "I don't care what kind of hatred you have with the coastal army, but Li Jian's arrival in Huangshi Island has an inseparable relationship with me." You asked me to take Li Jian away, and I will write an IOU of 30,000 taels, how about this? ”

Qin Baichuan opened his mouth and was 30,000 taels of silver, Li Jian's expression changed slightly, and he looked up at Qin Baichuan. The so-called adversity sees the truth, this guy has only one side with him, and he is not too happy, but he is willing to pay money for his life?

"Damn, Qin Baichuan, you won!" Seeing that Qin Baichuan didn't mean to joke, Li Jian snorted.

Qin Baichuan's mention couldn't be said to be unattractive, and Miyamoto Nishiki just sneered: "Minister Qin, you are scheming, do you think I will really believe you?" ”

"We can pretend to say yes and wait until you write down the IOU before we arrest you." Cheng Yanran suddenly spoke, but it didn't look like a threat, but reminded Qin Baichuan.

"Coming out to run the rivers and lakes and doing business are the same thing, faith comes first." Qin Baichuan put his hands behind his back and said, "Miss Cheng also said that if you can catch us once, you can catch us a second time, so why don't you try to let us go?" When the time comes, you will receive the money, and everything will be written off, and if you can't receive it, it will not be difficult to kill Gangneung and ask for my life. You can rest assured that what happened today is a dream for me and will never be mentioned to anyone. ”

"Dreaming?" Miyamoto Nishiki squinted at Qin Baichuan: "Dongying people are not as pedantic as you Dasong people, or you cooperate obediently, when the time comes, I will take you to Dongying and give you a way to live; Otherwise, this is your burial place today! ”

Miyamoto Nishiki seemed to have lost his patience, but Xue Shihan was no longer afraid, but had a bit of a desperate meaning: "Dongying is a group of crazy things, and even a small place dares to offend the tiger power of Da Song?" I'm the master of Qingfeng Academy, come, if you have the ability, kill us here, and see if my people will break you into thousands of pieces in the future! ”

"Baga!"

"Xue Shihan, since you still know that you are the master of the academy, you should be more respectful when you speak!" Cheng Yanran raised her head suddenly: "Dongying is a mere place, what are you a master of an academy?" Don't think that Qingfeng Academy has a resounding name, and the royal family will tell you how to do it, in the eyes of the royal family, the entire Qingfeng Academy is just a chess piece that they can give up at any time! ”

"You!" Xue Shihan's head buzzed, she has always been respected everywhere in the name of a talented woman, and Qingfeng Academy has always been the right-hand man of the imperial court in her heart, but today's Cheng Yanran's last sentence sounded a loud alarm bell for her.

"Shihan, you promised when you came with me, and you listened to my arrangement. Now, you shut up for me. The already discordant atmosphere became even more tense, Qin Baichuan grabbed Xue Shihan's arm, blocked her behind him, raised his head and said: "Miss Cheng, the advantage of the tongue is useless, since you are acting on orders, then tell your master what I just said." ”

After a little silence, Qin Baichuan said again: "I probably already know his identity, if you go to sue him and kidnap someone Qin, the Jiangling Qiu Mountain Army, the Bloody Clothes Guard, and all the forces behind Qin will find him trouble, and the gains outweigh the losses." It's better to take the silver safely, and praise the strange road in the future, and the two don't owe each other. ”

Cheng Yanran remained silent again, Miyamoto Nishiki stopped talking, and Steward Lin stared at Qin Baichuan with a fluttering gaze, and no one spoke for a while. Coincidentally, at this moment, behind a partition built on the second floor of the earthen house, a man's voice came: "Do you know who I am? ”

After hearing that voice, Cheng Yanran and the others frowned, Qin Baichuan glanced up, and it was pitch black behind the partition, and there was no figure in sight. Qin Baichuan smiled faintly: "After waiting for a long time, the main lord is finally here...... That's right, I know who you are. ”

"Tell me about it." There was silence behind the partition for a while, and the voice came again: "Mr. Qin, your bluffing skills are indeed not bad, but those little cleverness and small means can't fool me." So, you'd better be really good. ”

"There are so many people here, you really want me to say it?" Qin Baichuan's eyes were determined.

"Although there are many people, they are all dumb and deaf." The man was silent again: "But it doesn't hurt to say. ”

"Then I'll take my time." Qin Baichuan smiled: "You are just a guard, a personal bodyguard." Your master didn't dare to speak out, because he was afraid that I would confirm his identity. ”

Saying it lightly, Qin Baichuan said firmly: "But I have enough reasons to recognize your identity." First, I came to Anyang and Yan Juzheng to go to the sea breeze painting boat to have fun, that Miyamoto Ronin provoked trouble, you persuaded him to leave in a few words, which caused a lot of applause, and I said at that time that you were deliberately creating public opinion. ”

"Ahh Qin Baichuan's first sentence fell, and Xue Shihan exclaimed, she was also present at the scene that day, and the one who drove away Miyamoto Nishiki at that time, wasn't it, wasn't it......

"At that time, I just thought that you deliberately created such an atmosphere for the sake of being superior, but then I chatted with Cheng Yanran and accidentally found out that she was from Dongying. On the way back, I was thinking, in this area of Anyang, you have hands and eyes to the sky, if there is no support from you, how can the Sea Breeze Painting Boat stand? Besides, the rise of the Sea Breeze Painting Boat has only been ten years, how can you not investigate Cheng Yanran's origin? Qin Baichuan raised his index finger: "First, at that time, I suspected that you were colluding with the Sea Breeze Painting Boat, but because it had nothing to do with Splendid Villa, I didn't delve into it." ”

"Second, I met Li Jian in Qunfangtang, and he was assassinated." Qin Baichuan raised his middle finger again: "Li Jian wantonly gathered people to gamble in Qunfangtang, and you can completely reprimand him with your identity, and even make some radical moves, but instead of you, you persuaded hard, and said that you would assist Li Jian to take the position." If Li Jian had been respectful to you at that time and obedient to your words, then I would have believed that you were brothers and sisters, but at that time, Li Jian was obviously full of hostility towards you, and a high-minded and arrogant person like you, if he had no other plans, how could he be so wronged? ”

"Huh? Qin Baichuan, you say him, he is! Li Jian didn't know about the Sea Breeze Painting Boat, but when Qin Baichuan talked about Qunfangtang, he also immediately thought of the identity of the person behind the scenes.

"Go on." The man behind the door snorted coldly.

"What I said above is not enough to confirm your identity, at least you have 10,000 reasons to refute it, but what about my assassination in Qunfangtang?" Qin Baichuan said coldly: "There are strict guards in Qunfang Hall, I don't need to say much about this, you are in charge of the protection of Qunfang Hall, if there is no order from you, how can those family members in my resting place retreat at will?" ”

"Afterwards, you told me that the snake group had a dark line ambushing on the side of Desheng Gong, but I don't understand, no matter how you say it, the snake group is just an unsightly organization, what are you doing ambushing people next to Desheng Gong? If it is discovered by Desheng Gong, won't it bring death to the snake group? Qin Baichuan asked rhetorically: "Killers are cautious, and they will never be so reckless." ”

Qin Baichuan didn't finish his words, in fact, after Qunfangtang's assassination, he communicated with the monkey about this issue, and these words were all told by the monkey.

"There is a third point, I didn't understand it, but the moment I saw Li Jian, it seemed to have been figured out a little." Qin Baichuan was a little dry, and said with a sigh.

"Anything else you can't figure out?"

"Hmm." Qin Baichuan nodded and said: "I haven't figured it out, why didn't the coastal army avoid me when discussing how to deal with the relationship with Black Tiger Mountain, but now think about it...... In fact, Desheng Gong did not advocate war, but he had to pay attention to the weight of his words in the coastal army. He may have wanted to send me a message to go back to Gangneung to talk to Liu Yuanyuan and resolve the conflict between the two of you. ”

"And for you, spread the information that the coastal army and the Black Tiger Mountain are incompatible, and then secretly find an opportunity to kill Li Jian, and then falsify the scene a little, some people will think that it is the hand of the Black Tiger Mountain, and then you can logically conquer the Black Tiger Mountain, and after the prestige is further improved, even Desheng Gong will not be able to suppress you." Qin Baichuan took a deep breath: "Li Mingxiu, Deputy Gang Leader Li, what I said, right?" ”
