"Oh? Then Boss Wang clearly said that your mother is seriously ill and will die soon, can you still use her unique skills to negotiate conditions with me? Gui Mingyue opened the curtain on the carriage and said slowly.

"You heard this...... Li Yu lowered his head in amazement.

Gui Mingyue sneered: "Never take others for fools, especially people you don't know well." As he spoke, he glanced at Yu Hongbo.

"Get out of the way, don't delay our journey." Yu Hongbo shouted.

Li Yu saw that they were about to leave when they returned to Mingyue, and he wiped his tears anxiously, and now his father Lao Li was said by the king to have made a false account and embezzled the money in the head shop, and he had already reported to the official.

And the son who drove in front of him was drunk yesterday, and it was the son of Lord Shi who sent him back. The two of them had a great friendship at first sight, as long as he was willing to help, then Wang Xing would definitely not be able to cover the sky with one hand.

Thinking so, he rushed forward again, knelt down and prostrate in front, pleading bitterly. He was not afraid at all that the horse's hooves would stop overhead, and he would be in danger of being crushed at any time.

This kid is still a little lonely, Gui Mingyue and Yu Hongbo couldn't help but glance at each other, Yu Hongbo nodded slightly.

With the support of Jin Qi'er, Gui Mingyue got out of the carriage, walked up to Li Yu, and asked, "Why do you think that this son can save your whole family?" ”

As soon as Li Yu heard this, the young lady was willing to ask, knowing that there was still a turning point in this matter, and hurriedly said: "Wang Xing, the owner of the noodle shop, relied on himself as the nephew of Lord Shi and wanted to forcibly occupy my sister, but my sister swore to death, so he framed my father for embezzling the money in the shop. Yesterday, I saw that this son and the young master of the assassin family seemed to be old acquaintances, so I dared to beg, please Miss Gongzi must return my father's whiteness! As he spoke, he kowtowed again.

Gui Mingyue listened, thought for a moment, and suddenly said, "What disease does your mother have?" ”

"My mother's body used to be quite strong, since the last time this Wang Xing got some waste hairpin-making materials out of nowhere, and forced my mother to use them to make step shakes and hairpins, my mother's body has become worse and worse, and she has coughed up blood recently." Li Yu gritted his teeth when he talked about Wang Xing, thinking of his mother's body, he was even more sad.

Oh, this waste material must be doped with toxic metals, and he must be poisoned.

"Let's go to the Wang family shop with you to have a look, we can't guarantee that your father's affairs will be done, don't report too much hope." Gui Mingyue said seriously.

Li Yu immediately grateful, and said: "Thank you, young master, as long as you are willing to go with me, whether the matter can be done or not, I, Li Yu, will not forget the kindness of the two." ”

"Let's go, then."

Li Yu took Gui Mingyue and his party to Wang's shop, and when he saw that the shop had been locked, the surrounding neighbors told him that his father, Lao Li, had been taken to the yamen of the state capital.

Gui Mingyue went to the yamen lobby first, and Yu Hongbo went to the Assassin's Mansion to find his friend Ling Gongzi of the Assassin's family.

"Brother Yu didn't let me send it yesterday, why did I come back today, but I can't bear to be a little brother." Ling Gongzi joked when he saw Yu Hongbo.

Yu Hongbo told his friend what happened this morning, Ling Gongzi was silent for a long time after listening to it, and seeing that Yu Hongbo was in a hurry, he had to say apologetically: "I'm afraid I can't help with this matter." ”

"Why? But is it because Wang Xing is the nephew of Lord Thorn Shi? Yu Hongbo was a little annoyed.

"No, no, Brother Yu, it's not because of my cousin, I have also heard about this case," Ling Gongzi glanced at Yu Hongbo, "but Lao Li, the accountant of the Wang family's shop, is indeed greedy for the money in the shop." ”

"What? Do you admit it? Li Yu knelt in front of the hall, looked at Lao Li with a depressed face on his side in confusion, and said in disbelief: "They must have beaten you and threatened you, isn't it Dad, isn't it?" I don't believe it, I don't believe it! ”

He didn't believe his honest dad would do such a thing.

Gui Mingyue watched quietly outside the hall. Li Yu glanced back, ignited hope again, grabbed his father's hand and said: "Dad, you don't have to be afraid of that Wang Xing, we also have a way, even if you tell the truth of the matter, do you have any trouble, did he force you." As he spoke, he pointed to Wang Xing, who was standing next to him with a gloomy face.

Lao Li knelt on the ground motionless, not saying a word.

"Dad, you are talking, if you are really falsely accused of embezzling silver, how can our family live. My mother is sick like that, and my sister, my sister ......"

When Lao Li heard this, he suddenly sobbed in pain, crying and shouting: "It's all my fault, I'm confused, but your mother, your mother's illness, there is no money for treatment, I'm afraid I won't be able to stand it, that's why I stole the money in the account......"

"Daddy!" As soon as Li Yu heard that his father was telling the truth, his heart suddenly became bottomless, and he pointed at Wang Xing and scolded: "It's all your fault, you must have poisoned my mother, and now you are designing for my father to steal silver, which has harmed my family so badly!" It's a shame that our whole family is serving that shop, you treacherous white-eyed wolf! ”

Wang Xing snorted, his high cheekbones were full of coldness and disdain: "You are incompetent, if I hadn't taken in your whole family, I wouldn't have starved to death on the street five years ago!" ”

Five years ago, when Li Yu was still young, their family fled the famine and came to Ezhou, Wang Xing saw that his mother had a good skill in making hairpins, so he took their family to work in Wang's shop.

This was a great kindness, but as Li Yu's sister grew up, Wang Xing had a bad heart for the pretty Li Ling'er, and he wanted to misbehave in the shop many times, but his father Lao Li was too cowardly, dared to be angry and didn't dare to speak, and always turned a blind eye. This made him hate Wang Xing and his father for being incompetent.

Now the life of the whole family is in the hands of this king.

"What do you want?" Li Yu asked through gritted teeth.

Wang Xing smiled proudly, "Your father's greedy silver, I can write it off, as long as your sister is willing to obey me, everything is easy to say." ”

"You, don't you think!" At this time, a girl ran out of the crowd outside the hall, combing ordinary braids, patches on her clothes, looking at the goose egg face and willow eyebrows, but quite a bit of posture, presumably this is Li Ling'er girl.

"Daddy, how are you, Daddy?" Li Ling'er knelt forward to support Lao Li.

I saw Wang Xing bow to the court and said loudly: "My lord Mingjian, the so-called debt repayment is a matter of course. This Lao Li not only owes me money, but also the criminal act of stealing. ”

Fu Yin asked, "Are you Li Ling'er, the daughter of this prisoner Li Baolu?" ”

"The people's girl is exactly" Li Ling'er returned.

"Then are you willing to pay off your father's debts and sell yourself to this boss Wang Xingwang?" Fu Yin asked again.

"I ......" Li Ling'er's face turned pale, and she was about to grit her teeth and agree.

"Girl, it's me who has burdened you," Lao Li burst into tears, and suddenly turned his head to Wang Xing and said, "Today I will compensate you for my old life, and you will be merciful and spare my poor daughter." As he spoke, he stood up abruptly and slammed into the pillar at the door of the yamen......

"Daddy!" Li Ling'er and Li Yu cried and went over to pick up Lao Li's body.

The servants of the hall went over to probe his snort, and came forward to reply that the prisoner Li Baolu was dead.

Fu Yin sighed, rubbed his brows and said, "Wang Xing, now that people are dead, the debts will be paid off, do you have any objections?" ”

"I don't agree, the so-called father's debt repayment to the son, this Lao Li is dead, but he still has children alive, and the silver owed should naturally be repaid by his children!" Wang Xing glanced at Lao Li's cold corpse and said expressionlessly.

"You!" Fu Yin knew early on that he was the nephew of the assassin Shi, and it was not easy to force him, and what he said was not without basis.

"Then Li Yu and Li Ling'er, your sister and brother, can you get the silver to repay Boss Wang?" Fu Yin had to ask again.

"Sister, let's ......" Li Yu looked at her sister, Li Ling'er hung her head and didn't look at him, where is there a copper plate at home, her mother's illness cost all the money in the family, and it has not been cured, so her father took a risk. Looking at his skinny younger brother and thinking of his mother lying on the hospital bed, Li Yu closed his eyes in despair.

When he was about to open his mouth and promise to sell himself to the king.

"I will pay the money they owe." A woman's voice came over without hurrying.

Li Yu hurriedly looked outside the hall, it was the young lady who went to beg her to save people this morning!

"Who's outside the hall? Enter the hall and talk back. Fu Yin drank.

Gui Mingyue walked up to the hall, saluted Fu Yin, and said, "The little girl from Nanyang County, passing by your land, happened to see this public case, and dared to repay this debt for this girl." ”

Li Ling'er looked up at Gui Mingyue in surprise, and saw that this young lady was not an ordinary woman at first glance, although she was not very old, she had a good bearing and grace. Seeing her coming and saying that she wanted to pay off her debts, Li Linger was a little stupid.

Wang Xing saw the good things in his hand, but he was disturbed by such an outgoing woman of unknown origin, his face was pale, his eyes looked at Gui Mingyue suspiciously, and he whispered a warning in his voice: "This young lady, I advise you to be less nosy, what can you do as a foreigner on the chassis of Ezhou?" ”

"On the chassis of Ezhou, you are also a foreigner, Wang Xing, do you say?"

"Young Master Ling? It is Ling Gongzi of the Assassin Mansion. ”

Ling Gongzi stepped forward, "Ling Xiao greets Lord Yin." ”

Fu Yin nodded slightly.

Wang Xing saw that it was Ling Xiao, so he hurriedly said with a smile on his face, "Cousin, why are you here?" Speaking of which, we brothers haven't seen each other for a long time, and when this is over, my cousin will invite you to drink. ”

"Don't be in a hurry to drink, wait for this case to be settled first, let's talk about it, how much silver does Lao Li in your shop owe you?"

"This," Wang Xing rolled his eyes and said, "It's not much, it's only two hundred taels of silver before and after." ”

When Li Yu heard this, he suddenly stood up, pointed at his nose and scolded: "You fart, how can there be as many as two hundred taels?" If you don't go to a single customer in your shop for three days, two hundred taels of silver must be the income of the shop for one or two months. How could my father get two hundred taels of silver from the books at once and not be discovered? ”

Li Ling'er also looked at him resentfully, if there were two hundred taels of silver, even if it was fifty taels, her mother's illness would not have dragged on until now.

This king is clearly a lion's mouth.

"It's two hundred taels." Wang Xing did not let go, the account book has been destroyed, Lao Li is also dead, everything is dead without proof, he is as much as he says.

"Wang Xing, you still have to be shameless, you ......" Ling Xiao looked at his villain face, and just wanted to go up and smoke him.

"Ling Gongzi! Don't disturb the court! "Fu Yin export stopped.

"Cousin, don't get involved in this matter, it's just two hundred taels. Since this young lady is your friend, I won't say much, as long as she can come up with two hundred taels, my grudge with this old Li family will be written off. Wang Xing expected that this young lady from other places would not take out two hundred taels to save these orphans and widows, and the old Li family should not have a few days to live if he is still sick. In addition to this, Li Ling'er still has a bit of beauty, even if she gets tired of playing in the future, she can't sell it for fifty taels of silver if she buys it into the lowest brothel.

"Okay, two hundred taels is two hundred taels, and I will give you this silver." Gui Mingyue stretched out her hand to take the silver ticket handed over by Jin Qi'er, and walked in front of Fu Yin and Ling Xiao, and walked in front of Wang Xing, "Please write a receipt, in the future, the three sisters and brothers of the Li family and their mothers, and your Wang family shop and your Wang Xing, will have nothing to do with it." ”

As soon as these words came out, the hall was shocked.

Fu Yin didn't expect that this little girl from a foreign country would spend two hundred taels of silver to save such a sick and weak family of orphans and widows who had nothing to do with it.

Li Ling'er and Li Yu had tears in their eyes, and immediately knelt in front of Gui Mingyue, and kowtowed.
