Chapter 68: No Mercy!
The turtle slave looked at her and hesitated for a long time before he said slowly: "It's Miss Lanlan, this Miss Lanlan......"
After listening to the turtle slave's explanation to Lan Lan, she immediately thanked the turtle slave.
Sure that Zhao Huaizhi has been living here in Tianxiang Pavilion Lanlan, she decided to come to Lanlan tomorrow.
She was just about to leave when she heard a familiar voice.
"Let me go! I'm here to find someone, I'm not a girl here. ā
"Hahaha...... Looking for someone in a brothel? Are you here to find your brother? ā
"If an innocent girl comes back to such a place, don't pretend."
"Let me go!"
Zhao Xianglian was dragged by two men and dragged into the Tianxiang Pavilion.
What will happen next is one can imagine.
Ah Yao turned around and asked the turtle slave, "What's the matter with that person?" ā
"I don't know what's going on with her, she's been here for two days, and every time she clamored to see her brother, and the devil knows where her brother is."
She won't care about Zhao Xianglian's affairs anymore, and Zhao Xianglian is to blame for any fate.
She took a deep breath and left the Tianxiang Pavilion directly.
The next day, she was sweeping the floor in the front yard, and she happened to bump into the sneaky Ling'er about to go out.
Ling'er held a burden in her hand, and looked at the weight.
Presumably, the baggage is filled with Su Yuyan's gold and silver jewelry, and she wants to sell the gold and silver jewelry and raise money for Zhao Huaizhi.
Coincidental!
She was thinking about how to make up five thousand taels of silver, and the money was delivered to the door.
She handed the broom to the other maidservants, told them that the young master had something to look for her, and went to Rong Ziling's courtyard.
When she got to a place where there was no one, she immediately went to the backyard and quietly went out of the house through the back door.
There are many shops in Kyoto that pawn gold and silver jewelry, but only one is generously bid.
She estimated that Ling'er would go to the store with gold and silver jewelry, so she changed her clothes in advance, and ambushed her face in the alley of the store on the way.
After waiting for half an hour, Ling'er finally came.
She learned some simple kung fu from Rong Qianhan, which was more than enough to deal with an unarmed weak woman like Ling'er.
When Ling'er passed by the alley, she dragged Ling'er into the alley, and the sharp dagger immediately crossed Ling'er's neck.
The cold touch of the dagger frightened Ling'er, "You, what are you going to do?" ā
Ah Yao said in a hoarse voice, "Give me the silver." ā
"IāI don't have any money!"
"Don't fool me, I've seen it all."
Ling'er protected the silver ticket in her arms and begged nervously: "This money is not mine, if I lose this money, I will die, I beg you to let me go!" ā
"Bring it!"
Ling'er cried in fright, and suddenly shouted at the top of her voice: "Help! Save ......"
She put the dagger close to Ling'er's white neck and warned in a low voice, "If you shout again, don't blame me for not having long eyes." ā
"IāI really can't give it to you."
"I'll say it again, bring it."
"I ......"
Without waiting for Ling'er to finish speaking, she snatched all the silver tickets directly from Ling'er's arms.
She took advantage of Ling'er's inattention and ran towards the other side of the alley.
After she ran away, Ling'er squatted in despair and cried.
After Ah Yao ran away, she took off the black face towel and threw it away, and she counted the silver tickets, more than five thousand taels.
She was satisfied with the silver ticket and went to Tianxiang Pavilion again.
The door of Tianxiang Pavilion was still closed, and she went straight forward and knocked on the door.
The porter opened the door slowly and leisurely, and shouted impatiently: "Who! I don't know if our Tianxiang Pavilion doesn't open during the day? ā
Ah Yao hurriedly handed over a tael of silver.
The porter smiled and took the money, and then raised his eyes to look at her, "Girl, this is ......"
"I'm looking for Lan Lan."
The porter frowned, "Miss Lanlan is still resting at this time, ...... you?"
She handed over another tael of silver.
After the porter took the money, he respectfully said, "I will call for you, you wait a moment." ā
After half a pillar of incense, she waited for Lan Lan.
Lan Lan was dressed in tulle and looked at her curiously, "Are you looking for me?" ā
"Hmm."
"What are you looking for me to do?"
"What about Zhao Huaizhi?"
"Are you looking for Zhao Gongzi?" Lan Lan asked suspiciously.
"I'd like to ask you something."
Lan Lan snorted disdainfully, "I'm busy, how can I tell you ......?"
Without waiting for Lan Lan to finish speaking, she handed over a silver ticket directly.
Seeing the silver ticket, Lan Lan's eyes lit up instantly.
Money, what a good thing you can do!
She took the silver ticket back, "As long as you answer me truthfully a few questions, this silver ticket is yours." ā
Lan Lan nodded happily.
You don't have to serve those stinky men to get a silver ticket, and Lan Lan can't ask for it.
She took Lan Lan aside and asked, "Zhao Huaizhi has been staying with you for a few days, right?" ā
"Yes."
"He's alone? Did you bring anyone with you? ā
Lan Lan shook her head, "He's alone." ā
"What did he say to you?"
Lan Lan frowned and recalled, "He said a lot of things, and I can't remember some of them, so I don't know what you want to ask." ā
"Did he mention anyone, anywhere or anything like that?" Yao asked.
Lan Lan continued to think for a moment, and said truthfully: "He did mention what Yan did last night, and what kind of silver, and scolded two stupid women from time to time, and there is nothing else besides these." ā
He mentioned Su Yuyan, and the silver must have been something he asked her and Su Yuyan for silver.
Do the two stupid women mean her and Su Yuyan?
Why did he call them stupid women?
"If you think about it carefully, did he say anything else, such as a woman......
Lan Lan still shook her head.
Ah Yao was a little deflated, after experiencing Yan Yu, Zhao Huaizhi's mouth became tighter.
She handed the silver ticket to Lan Lan, "Thank you." ā
She was just about to turn around and leave, when she was suddenly stopped by Lan Lan.
"You wait."
She looked back at Lan Lan.
Lan Lan frowned and recalled, "I seem to have heard him mention Southern Xinjiang once. ā
"Southern Xinjiang?"
"He drank too much at that time, and he couldn't speak well, and he stumbled and said a lot, and I heard the words southern Xinjiang clearly."
What did Zhao Huaizhi do when he mentioned southern Xinjiang?
She couldn't figure it out, so she could only thank Lan Lan and then return to the Regent's Mansion.
As soon as she returned to the backyard, she saw a lot of maidservants gathered together, whispering something.
"Ling'er is about to be killed, what did she do to make Concubine Niangniang so angry?"
"Who knows, Ling'er is a person brought by Concubine Niangniang from the Prime Minister's Mansion, and she doesn't usually have much contact with us."
"The side concubine is really ruthless!"
Ah Yao ignored the discussion in her ears and continued to go back to her own business.
When she was in the Prime Minister's Mansion, Ling'er followed Su Yuyan and bullied her and her mother a lot, and now she deserves to end up like this!
In order to get her mother back, she can't have any soft-heartedness!
In the blink of an eye, the two-day deadline came, and Ah Yao took the silver ticket, brought a sharpened dagger, and deliberately went to the back kitchen to grab some salt and bring it with her.
She came to the agreed alley and waited for Zhao Huaizhi.
After half a pillar of incense, Zhao Huaizhi finally appeared.
Zhao Huaizhi walked over proudly and asked, "Where is the silver?" ā
She pulled out a stack of silver tickets.
Zhao Huaizhi was just about to reach out to take it, but she took it back.
"Where's my mother?"
"You give me the silver ticket first, and I'll take you to see your mother right away."
She frowned, "No! I want to see my mother, so I will give you the silver ticket. ā
"You can't trust me?"
"What do you think?" Ah Yao asked rhetorically.
Who would believe a sanctimonious scoundrel!
Zhao Huai's eyes looked at the silver ticket, and snorted dissatisfiedly, "Since you don't believe me, then our deal will be stopped, anyway, there are still people who want her." ā
"You don't think that Su Yuyan will really take 10,000 taels of silver to exchange people, right?"
"Y-How do you know?" Zhao Huaizhi asked.
She didn't answer Zhao Huaizhi, but said, "You go to the Regent's Mansion to inquire, can she still give you silver!" ā
"What's wrong with her?"
She smiled at Zhao Huaizhi, but still didn't answer him directly.
She laughed so much that Zhao Huaizhi's heart was furious, and her back was cold.
"What did you do?"
She glanced at Zhao Huai, "Take me to see my mother, and I'll give you the silver ticket right away." ā
"You give me the silver ticket first."
"Zhao Huaizhi, you don't want to play tricks on me, do you?"
Zhao Huaiyi smiled flatteringly, "Where am I playing tricks with you!" I just want the silver, you give it to me, and I'll take you to your mother right away. ā
She really couldn't trust Zhao Huaizhi, and she didn't mean to give him the silver ticket.
"I've given you a chance, if you don't cherish the opportunity, then you won't be able to see your mother."
As soon as Zhao Huaizhi's words fell, Su Yuyan also came.
Su Yuyan and Ah Yao saw each other, and their faces showed a touch of surprise at the same time.
"Why are you here?" Su Yuyan asked.
She also wanted to ask Su Yuyan why she was here.
However, after thinking about it, she quickly understood that Zhao Huaizhi deliberately invited Su Yuyan to come here.
made an appointment with her, and asked Su Yuyan again.
Whoever bids high will give the person to whomever he wants.
It's just that a despicable villain like Zhao Huaizhi who doesn't talk about credibility can do this kind of thing.
After a while, Su Yuyan also figured it out and angrily reprimanded Zhao Huaizhi.
"Zhao Huaizhi, you obviously said that you would give me someone, why did you also find her?"
Zhao Huaizhi raised his chin proudly, "How do I know who will give me money, and I can save trouble by making an appointment with you together." ā
"You ......"
Su Yuyan glared at him, smiled and turned her head to look at Ah Yao, "How much money does he ask you for?" ā
"Five thousand taels."
"Five thousand taels is not a small amount for you, but it doesn't matter, I will exchange your mother back, you can go back to the Regent's Mansion and wait for me with peace of mind!"
Ah Yao snorted coldly: "Do you have any silver?" ā
"I ...... The dignified prime minister's concubine, and the regent's side concubine, of course I have silver. ā
When Zhao Huaizhi heard this, he happily answered, "Okay, then you give me the silver, and I will take you to see her immediately." ā
"People aren't here?" Su Yuyan frowned dissatisfied.
"I didn't even get any money, how could I bring people here?"
"I have to see people before I can give you money."
Zhao Huaizhi's face quickly changed, he didn't expect Ah Yao and Su Yuyan to say the same thing.
"I'll repeat," he repeated, "give me the money first, and I'll take you to her." ā
Su Yuyan sneered: "Zhao Huaizhi, do you really think I'm so foolish? ā
As soon as she finished speaking, a team of officials suddenly appeared and surrounded Zhao Huaizhi.
Ah Yao's face immediately sank.
