Chapter 680

Ji Lingtian almost died without a mouthful of old blood. Eighty million taels of silver, not much? Princess Ji'an is such a big deal.

But look at Jingzhao Yin in the hall, and then look at the people outside the hall, who were all the way for granted. They didn’t think that such compensation claims were so unreasonable and excessive. Or, 80 million taels of silver had no idea in the minds of these people? Is it the same as 80 taels of silver?

Ji Lingtian was puzzled and couldn't help but ask the question in his heart: "Do you know what 80 million taels of silver means?"

Xu Jingyuan took the lead in answering: "Of course I know that it is a salary that I can never earn in my life."

There were also brave people outside the hall shouting: "Can I buy half of the small town!"

People talked about their understanding of the 80 million taels of silver, and they all said it well. When Ji Lingtian heard it, they all knew it! But since they knew it, why did they not question Princess Ji'an's compensation request?

Seeing that Ji Lingtian was silent for a long time, some people in the crowd outside the hall couldn't help it and shouted: "That Lanzhou magistrate, don't you want to compensate? Or do you think it's too much compensation? No! Your wife can afford to buy jade with 80 million taels. I think your family is not short of money, so why don't Princess Ji'an accept the compensation?"

Ji Lingtian understood, it turned out that he was waiting here. He felt disgusted in his heart and had nowhere to be heard. At this moment, he really wanted to see with his own eyes how Princess Ji'an looked like, and how such a powerful woman made everyone in the capital happy.

In the middle of my heart, Qingyu's voice came again, reminding him: "I just forgot to say that this compensation was not the only one of my princesses. After all, there was His Royal Highness, the one present yesterday. The little girl told Lord Ji that your wife and maid were rude to Your Highness Jiu yesterday, and even said shameless words. Lord Ji should be glad. If it weren't for the fear of defiling the Nirvana Pavilion, your wife would have been in Jiu long ago.

Your Highness's whip turned into a wisp of soul, and it was not unfair at all. If you want to refuse to admit this compensation, that's fine. Your Highness said, since he is an official, then use the official method to solve the problem. Please ask Lord Ji to leave the house and go to the Royal Palace with the little girl, and then go to the palace with His Highness Nine to meet the saint. Please ask the emperor to decide the charge of insulting the prince and the princess in public, and see if it is 80 million taels of silver bills worth or your wife's head worth it."

Qingyu was not polite at all when he spoke, and Ji Lingtian turned pale and he didn't dare to say too much.

Insulting the prince is a serious crime, not to mention that the insulting the ninth prince is not just a matter of sin, but a matter of fate. He glared at Jiang and Jixiang, and saw that the two of them lowered their heads, he knew that Qingyu was 80% true. He sighed in his heart, only blamed his wife who was too doting on her when he was in the Southern Realm and everything was up to her. But the Southern Realm was his own territory. No one dared to say no to the wife of the prefect. This not only spoiled the wife, but also spoiled the girls around her to the point of lawlessness.

Unfortunately, it's too late to regret it now. Ji Lingtian kept thinking about the words of the eighth prince before leaving. Even the eighth prince was a little afraid of the ninth prince and Princess Ji'an. Even if he was dissatisfied, what could he do?

Forget it!

"Okay!" he lit up, "We agree. Please let my entourage go back and get the silver notes."

Xu Jingyuan naturally would not stop him, so he temporarily closed down. After Ji Lingtian's entourage sent a stack of silver notes to Qingyu, he announced that Jiang's release was released in the hall and reminded Ji Lingtian: "You must remember to say thank you to Princess Ji'an."

Ji Lingtian was so angry that he was so angry that he could not care about greetings. He pulled Jiang up and left without looking back. Ji Xiang was following behind, but he didn't expect that Ji Lingtian would kick him into the street as soon as he left the door of the court. The kick was extremely powerful and he kicked Ji Xiang so hard that he vomited blood. Some people frowned, but some people said that it was worth it. It would be best if such a girl was beaten to death. Even Xu Jingyuan ignored this. The slave had no human rights, and the master had the right to decide his life and death. He only cared about Qingyu: "Pick up the jade and send it back to the princess quickly!"

Qingyu smiled and thanked her, then approached him and said, "My princess said that she and His Highness the Royal Highness remembered the grace of Lord Xu for helping each other."

Xu Jingyuan thanked him repeatedly and personally gave the Qingyu out.

It was already noon when Qingyu returned to the princess's mansion. Feng Yuheng was having lunch. When he saw her coming, he said directly: "Save 6,000 taels of silver to be accounted for, and send the other 2,000 taels to Baicaotang to Wang Lin and open a branch for him."

Qingyu smiled and said, "Why are you so sure that this lawsuit will definitely be won?"

Feng Yuheng shrugged: "If you can't win this lawsuit, Xu Jingzhao Yinke will be in vain."

Huang Quan laughed at her even more and said, "Qingyu, you are still holding the wooden box in your hand, so you have to ask the lady how she knows?"

Qingyu looked at the wooden box in her hand and smiled bitterly, "I'm really confused." After that, she put the box to the table and then opened the lid, "I have checked it all, and it's not broken."

This was the first time Huang Quan saw these beautiful jades, and she was amazed for a moment. But she was a girl who practiced martial arts and was not as sensitive to this kind of thing as Qingyu. She only thought that beauty was beautiful, but she still couldn't tell why she was worth so much money.

Feng Yuheng nodded and said, "Let me keep it, I'll put it away later. By the way, have you seen the Lanzhou Prefect?"

Qingyu replied: "I have seen a person with a strong domineering and resentful spirit all over him. During the ceremony, I was angry many times and expressed some dissatisfaction with the lady. I looked at him and if I hadn't moved out of the Nine Palace to conquer the town in the end, I would have been afraid that I wouldn't be able to suppress him."

Feng Yuheng snorted coldly, "There are eight princes in the southern world now in support, and even a small magistrate has such momentum. I really don't know what the eight prince will be like when he comes back in the New Year."

Qingyu asked worriedly: "Miss is worried about the Eighth Prince?"

Feng Yuheng breathed a sigh of relief and asked Huangquan to sprinkle food, then said, "Prince, most of it is not honest. Today, Dashun, except for the eldest prince who is devoted to doing business and the second prince does not ask about political affairs, which one is worry-free? Even the fifth brother who is not careful in his mind, he doesn't know what kind of intestines he is thinking about. The Eighth Prince has been managing the Biannan area for many years, and has already established a small court there. Although he is still under the control of Dashun, you also know that the people in the Biannan area are very wild, and it is easy to surrender to the Eighth Prince who relies on force and tyranny. It is too difficult to surrender to the Dashun court far away."

Huang Quan frowned when he heard this: "Miss, is the eighth prince trying to use the forces in the border south to rebel?"

Qingyu covered Huang Quan's mouth: "Don't say such things!"

Feng Yuheng waved his hand, "It's okay, just talk. No one heard it better. Even if it was spread by someone with a heart, it would be a reminder for the people far south. During these Yuexi Palace Banquets, the emperor summoned so many officials from other provinces to gather in Kyoto. His Highness Ninth said that he wanted to take this opportunity to see the reactions of the provinces. Whether it is to the south of the border or the Qianzhou incident, he had to look at the attitude of the officials. The most important thing is that we have to pick out those who have other intentions, especially the officials in the south, and we must have a clear idea in our hearts."

Both of them understood what Feng Yuheng said, and no one said for a moment. Things in the court changed rapidly, and no one could tell what kind of day tomorrow would be. They were servants, just as long as their master was good, but there was some uncertain crisis, and they still had concerns when they remembered.

However, Feng Yuheng was not worried at all. He quickly turned over this article. When he spoke again, he said happily: "The Lanzhou magistrate is very rich! He took it out at 80 million taels of silver. From this, it can be seen that this trip to the capital was made. The princess has always liked to deal with rich people. Since he is so generous, it is better for us to give him a big gift."

Huang Quan wondered: "Miss means..."

The second prince has always been responsible for investigating and punishing officials' corruption. I think he is very idle recently. Last time the Yao family held a wedding ceremony, Feiyu also said that his father was going to take him to Jiangnan after Yuexi. Why should we find something for him and ask him to investigate a mere magistrate, where did so much money come from? What is the purpose of bringing him to the capital?

Everyone knows that offending Princess Ji'an has no good ending. But the people of Ji's family, who are far south, are not very concerned about it. Even though the Eighth Prince had already reminded him, they still rushed up against the wind. When Ji Lingtian later realized that he was very wrong, he regretted it.

Of course, this is a later story. Now there is only a few days before Yuexi Palace Banquet. It is not urgent to tell the second prince to go to investigate Ji Lingtian's affairs. Feng Yuheng plans to talk to him personally when meeting the Palace Banquet. There was another thing she remembered, so she ordered Qingyu: "When you go to Baicaotang to deliver silver later, you can ask my grandfather to come here, and you will say I have something to look for him."

Qingyu responded and got up and left immediately.

Yao Xian arrived at the princess's mansion in the afternoon. Feng Yuheng narrowly talked about the fact that Concubine Yun wanted to see him. Yao Xian didn't resist much and said, "We always guessed in our hearts that it's not a big deal, so I just saw her and see what connection she has with Yao Xian."

Feng Yuheng was relieved when he saw him responding, and then said, "Then it's Yuexi that day. We all want to enter the palace, so we can save more trouble."

The two decided on this matter and went to see Bai Furong again. Bai Furong's condition has improved significantly since she vomited blood last time. Now she can be awake for a few hours a day. Yao Xian changed another potion and told Feng Yuheng: "It will be great if you don't have three months. When the New Year is over, you won't be able to recover as before, and you will be free and easy."

Feng Yuheng then felt relieved.

A beautiful jade case broke out in Beijing for two days. On the day when the Jingzhao Yin settled the case, this matter had become an interesting thing that everyone could talk about on the streets of the Beijing teahouse. Some storytellers even arranged this into stories to tell the tea people, and everyone was applauding.
