Chapter 163: Pay off debts

Views:

Ding Yitu did not speak, but Dou Lianzhong had already walked over and said calmly: "Mr. Ding, the bodyguard of the world, relies on personal connections and has met countless people. But in my opinion, there are not many people who know Mr. Ding, the bodyguard of Mr. Ding." No, but Mr. Ding, the bodyguard, may not remember everyone."

Yang Ning did not argue, but said with a smile: "Mr. Dou, I heard that there are many boats on the Qinhuai River owned by you, Mr. Dou. Is it true or not?"

"So what?" Dou Lianzhong asked.

Yang Ning smiled and said: "It doesn't matter." She turned to Yuan Rong and asked: "Yuan Rong, is Miss Pearl's boat also owned by Mr. Dou?"

Before Yuan Rong could answer, Dou Lianzhong already said: "Yes, that boat is mine. At that time, Baibaolou's surnamed Xue was not doing well and owed me a large sum of money. That boy thought that he could escape the debt by dying and pay back the debt." Money is of course a matter of course, and since Pearl is his concubine, of course it can also pay off debts."

"It turns out that the pearl was used by you as debt payment." Yang Ning said: "So, the pearl's deed of sale is now in your hands?"

Dou Lianzhong seemed to intend to irritate Yang Ning and Yuan Rong, and said with a smile: "Yes, the contract of betrayal is in my hands. According to my Dachu law, the pearls belong to me, just like cattle and horses. She was disobedient just now, so I will take good care of her later." Let's do it." He glanced at Yuan Rong, with a look in his eyes, and said: "Mr. Yuan, I heard that you had a good relationship with Xue back then. It is said that you also promised to take care of Pearl. What do you think? To redeem yourself for the pearl?”

Yuan Rong's fair face turned slightly red, and he said solemnly: "Master Dou, don't overdo anything."

"Hahaha, Yuan Rong, you come from a scholarly family, it is reasonable to pity women and cherish jade." Dou Lianzhong said proudly: "But I am only worried that if you want to redeem yourself for a bitch, your house may be able to give you so much Silver? Even if you really take out the silver to redeem her body, can a bitch with a little red lips and thousands of people taste it still be able to enter your house? I'm just worried that Mr. Yuan will break your legs."

Yuan Rong said angrily: "You...!" He was so angry that he couldn't speak for a while.

Seeing this, Zhu Yuchen hesitated for a moment, and finally asked cautiously: "Mr. Dou, I wonder... I wonder how much silver it will cost to redeem Miss Pearl's life?"

Today, Yang Ning came to their rescue. Zhu Yuchen felt grateful. Seeing that Yang Ning and Yuan Rong seemed to be willing to redeem themselves for Pearl, he wanted to reciprocate the favor.

Naturally, he knew in his heart that although the choice of the queen on the Qinhuai River cost a lot of money, in fact, it would not cost much money to redeem the girl on the Qinhuai River. Even if she was a popular girl, with the financial resources of the Zhu family, , it’s just a drop in the bucket.

Nowadays, the most valuable girl on the Qinhuai River is the Eight Beauties of Qinhuai on the Fang King. Pearls are not among these eight. No matter how expensive they are, they will not cost much silver.

"Why, the wealthy Mr. Zhu wants to redeem himself for the pearl?" Dou Lianzhong laughed and said: "I am also a reasonable person. As long as I can really get the money to redeem myself, I will not care about a bitch. Go and stay. But the pearl is used to pay off debts. If you want to redeem her, you have to pay off all the debts Baibaolou owed me." He raised his hand and scratched his chin with his thumb, "Zhu Jiabu All the property of the village has been mortgaged, which is probably enough."

Zhu Yuchen immediately changed his face slightly, knowing that Dou Lianzhong was opening his mouth like a lion, and knowing that it was almost impossible to redeem himself for Pearl.

Xiao Shaozong didn't say anything, just peeling peanuts. He seemed to like eating peanuts and enjoying the process of peeling peanuts even more.

Yang Ning looked on coldly, smiled faintly, and said to Xiao Shaozong: "Your Highness, I didn't plan to settle old scores today, but since Mr. Dou brought up old scores first, I can only settle them here."

Xiao Shaozong calmed down and said with a smile: "Who does Jin Yihou want to settle accounts with?"

Yang Ning waved to Dou Lianzhong and said, "Come here."

His action was very rude, and Dou Lianzhong was very angry and said, "You can just go over if you let me go?"

"I want to settle accounts with you, so of course I want you to come over." Yang Ning took out something from his body and said with a smile: "I am most afraid of lack of money, so I always carry this treasure at the bottom of the box with me." Qingqing With a flick of his eye, it turned out to be a piece of paper. Xiao Shaozong looked at the piece of paper with some suspicion. Dou Lianzhong glanced at it and saw that his color had changed.

"His Royal Highness, this is the deed of debt signed by Mr. Dou after being heard by Mr. Mo, the governor of Kyoto." Yang Ning smiled and said: "Young Master Dou also said just now that the debt must be repaid, and now it is time to calculate it. "

Dou Lianzhong couldn't help but said: "Qining, that was your deception, I...!"

"What am I?" Yang Ning's face darkened, "You don't want to admit it?" He sneered: "His Royal Highness is here. The Kyoto Palace represents the royal law of the empire. If you don't admit it, you are ignoring the royal law of my great Chu. You don’t even recognize the king’s law of Dachu, Your Highness, I wonder if this counts as rebellion?”

Xiao Shaozong smiled and said: "No matter who you are, you must abide by the king's law!"

"His Royal Highness, you are right." Yang Ning laughed, "Master Dou destroyed the family heirloom of our Jinyihou Mansion. Originally, it was because of Dou Shangshu's face that I couldn't come to ask for the account. I thought that the Dou family is also famous. A big family with a surname will never fail to pay off their debts, like the thugs in the market, but I just waited and waited, but I didn't see Mr. Dou taking the initiative to repay the debt. His Royal Highness happened to be here today. I think we are here to pay this debt. Here it is.”

Dou Lianzhong said angrily: "What a family heirloom, it's just a trap you set. You said a low-quality glazed horse is a family heirloom...!"

Yang Ning sneered and said: "Mr. Dou, are you still cheating? If you are really like this, I can only appeal to the Holy Emperor and retrieve the interrogation files from the Kyoto Prefecture to see how the trial was conducted. What do you think? ?”

Dou Lianzhong's face changed slightly.

In fact, what he is most worried about right now is that the trial files of that day will be made public. In the court that day, Dou Lianzhong was unscrupulous and said several treacherous words. Although he only said it out of necessity, those words were trivial. , It's a big deal, but it's a big deal. If they really get entangled, the Dou family will definitely not get anything good.

Yang Ning naturally knew what Dou Lianzhong was thinking. He smiled and said, "Master Dou, what do you think? Do you want to do the math?"

Seeing Dou Lianzhong's unnatural expression, Jiang Suiyun smiled and said: "Master Hou, a top-quality glazed horse only costs a few hundred taels of silver at most. In this way, I will repay Mr. Dou's debt. I don't know if a thousand taels of silver is enough." Can?"

Yang Ning frowned and said: "Master Jiang, I know that your Jiang family is as rich as the country, but what do you mean by repaying debts on behalf of Master Dou? You are a businessman. Although Master Dou does not have any official status, he is still the son of the Minister of Household Affairs. , a businessman repays the debt of the son of the Minister of the Ministry of Finance, this...! "

Jiang Suiyun's color suddenly changed.

Xiao Shaozong said with a smile: "Marquis Jinyi, Suiyun and Lianzhong have known each other for many years. They have always treated each other as brothers, regardless of their status. Moreover, Suiyun has always been eager for justice and justice. Maybe he was worried about Lianzhong and said the wrong thing at the moment." Turning to Dou Lianzhong, He said: "Lian Zhong, this is a debt between you and the Marquis. You can discuss it among yourselves and no one else should interfere."

Yang Ning smiled and said: "His Royal Highness is still wise." He put the debt note on the table and said: "Master Dou, tell me how you plan to repay the debt."

"This...!" Dou Lianzhong was caught by Yang Ning, but he had no choice but to say bitterly: "Tell me how much money is needed and how to solve it at once."

"You have to know that the heirloom of our Marquis Mansion is a gift from the emperor, a priceless treasure." Yang Ning said leisurely: "Let's do this, you give me the pearl's bond of sale first. By the way, since the painting boat Pearl Girl has lived here for two years, so I gave it to Pearl Girl as well."

Dou Lianzhong frowned and said, "Just write it off like this?"

"You're dreaming." Yang Ning said unceremoniously: "This is your first payment of compensation. Let's calculate the remaining accounts slowly."

Dou Lianzhong sneered and said, "You are blackmailing me. Is it possible that you can still blackmail me at will after this is an IOU?"

"I won't talk nonsense with you." Yang Ning said: "If you don't agree, go to Kyoto Mansion now to get the case file, and then go to see the Holy Emperor." He sighed: "The heirloom given by the Emperor was destroyed by you, and you are still here We must make it clear that we are bargaining here and desecrating royal objects."

Dou Lianzhong was most afraid of Yang Ning mentioning the case file, so he suddenly became a little frustrated and reluctantly said: "You... you can't take advantage of others!"

"Taking advantage of others' danger?" Yang Ning said with a smile: "Master Dou, have you read a book? You have met the Jiang family, who is extremely wealthy, and the head of the Rising Sun Escort Bureau is escorting you. He wears gold and silver, and relies on red. Sitting on the green, is this called danger?" He stood up, cupped his hands to Xiao Shaozong and said: "Your Highness, Dou Lianzhong is so arrogant, it seems that he really wants to cheat. He doesn't take the gift given by the emperor seriously, but I, the Marquis of Jinyi Palace, are We regard it as a treasure, so we can only complain to the Holy One." He walked away and said in a deep voice: "Duan Canghai, let's go to Kyoto Mansion now, find Mr. Mo, let Mr. Mo take the case files, and go to the palace gate overnight. Wait outside.”

Duan Canghai immediately said: "I obey my orders!"

Dou Lianzhong saw Yang Ning's aggressive attitude and said anxiously: "You... you wait a minute, I... I promise you."

"Oh?" Yang Ning turned around and stared at Dou Lianzhong, "Mr. Dou, His Royal Highness is here. His Highness is the witness, so you can't make false claims. What did you promise me?"

Dou Lianzhong glanced at Xiao Shaozong and saw that Xiao Shaozong was peeling peanuts and did not look at himself. He had no choice but to say: "I... I will give you the bond of sale of Pearl. From now on, Pearl will be yours. That boat... Then The boat is also yours."

"Everyone has heard it." Yang Ning smiled and said: "Master Dou, where is the contract of betrayal? Can you give it to me now?"

Dou Lianzhong said: "We have so many servants in the house, we can't carry all the deeds of betrayal with us. I'll have someone pick them up later."

"Good things don't happen overnight." Yang Ning raised his head and looked at the sky. "It's still early before midnight. Send someone to go back and get it quickly. It shouldn't take long to get back and forth. Before midnight, hand over both the deed of betrayal and the boat." into my hands.”

Dou Lianzhong's eyes were full of anger, he snorted coldly, walked over and ordered his entourage to get it, and the entourage took the order and left. Dou Lianzhong came back and said angrily: "Just wait."

"Mr. Dou, don't blame me. I can never trust you." Yang Ning smiled and said, "Now you write something to explain that you have transferred Miss Pearl and the boat to me. You must write it clearly." It's clear...!" After thinking for a moment, he said: "I'd better help you write, come here, get the pen and ink!"

No one moved around. Yang Ning frowned and said, "Why, no one cares?"

Dou Lianzhong said angrily: "Get him a pen and ink!"

Only then did someone bring in pen and ink. Yang Ning immediately wrote something and asked Dou Lianzhong to sign it. Dou Lianzhong wanted to cut Yang Ning into pieces. He asked Zhu Yuchen and others tonight to teach them a lesson. Who knew that I had lured this living King of Hell here, and I regretted it deeply.

He was very wary of Yang Ning now. He knew that this kid was cunning and was afraid of setting a trap for him. He looked at it carefully several times. Just in case, he even asked Jiang Suiyun to look at it again. He signed and stamped it and handed it to Yang Ning. Yang Ning took it, folded it and put it away, and said with a smile: "Okay, I won't disturb you too much. I'll wait for the sale of my life over there." He handed over to Xiao Shaozong and said, "Your Majesty. Your Highness, please take your leave first!"

Xiao Shaozong then turned around and said with a smile: "On the Qinhuai River, the wind and moon are boundless. Marquis Jinyi must enjoy this night!"
