The lion opens his mouth!

This is the thought in the minds of Leng Lanzhi and everyone in the Princess Mansion.

Liusha, the housekeeper and others were all livid with anger. They couldn't understand why there were such shameless and troublesome people?

Although the other party is the princess's mother-in-law, it seems a bit disrespectful for them to think so, but they can't help it - this person is too polite!

Leng Lanzhi was also stunned for a moment.

She thought the old pious woman would ask for tens of thousands taels at most, but she didn't expect her appetite to be so big.

How many million taels?

If she could tell it, wouldn't she be afraid of dying?

"Your fiefdom has so much income, I only want to take away a few million taels, that's not too much, right?"

The incident in Tianhai City had just happened and had not spread yet, so most of the people in Shengjing did not know that the Tianhaicheng County Sheriff had been raided and tens of millions of taels of stolen silver and dozens of boxes of pearls had been found.

When they heard Zhao's words, they realized that Princess Jialuo's fiefdom had so much income?

Ten million taels!

Thinking about it this way...

It seems that sharing a few million taels with your mother-in-law’s family is nothing?

Leng Lanzhi's slightly pale face was full of humility: "What my mother-in-law said is absolutely true. Since we have to make a clear settlement, if I really have ten million taels, I should pay you a few million taels instead of my consort."

Zhao was stunned for a moment.

She thought Leng Lanzhi would fight to the death without giving her any money, and she was ready to go all out. But she didn't expect him to be so easy to talk to?

She didn't think there was anything wrong, and she looked happy: "You agreed? Then bring it!"

Leng Lanzhi smiled helplessly: "But, I don't have that much money."

Mrs. Zhao frowned, put her hands on her hips, and said with a ferocious face: "Nonsense! A corrupt official has just been confiscated in your fiefdom! More than 10 million taels of stolen silver were found in the corrupt official's home! All this money belongs to you!"

The people were in an uproar.

If this is really the case, then the princess must come up with this money!

Otherwise, ordinary people like them would not do it.

After all, what people hate most is corrupt officials!

As for the inevitable connection between hating corrupt officials and the princess having to take out the money, they had no time to think about it.

This was also the idea that Yu Waner gave to Zhao, to use the people's resentment against corrupt officials to incite their emotions.

Leng Lanzhi seemed unable to feel the restless emotions of the people. She smiled bitterly: "Mother-in-law, you also said that he is a corrupt official. The debts he embezzles are all based on the people, plundering the people's fat and money, relying on the people's blood and sweat, and even

It was gained by losing one's life.

As the owner of the fiefdom, I failed to detect the viciousness of the officials under my command in time, which resulted in the people being destitute and miserable. The entire Tianhai City territory had ten houses and nine empty houses. I blamed myself very much. I had already sent an order to order every day.

Each victim will be compensated at the price of one hundred taels of silver."

The people around were shocked, and Ms. Zhao's eyes widened in disbelief.

After the people were shocked, their anger completely dissipated, leaving only admiration.

Throughout the ages, there have been countless corrupt officials.

But there is only one person, Leng Lan, who can make decisions for the people and compensate those who have been harmed by corrupt officials!

At this moment, they only had admiration and love for Leng Lanzhi.

Zhao was destined to no longer be able to use them as guns.

Leng Lanzhi continued: "There are hundreds of thousands of victims in Tianhai City. The more than 10 million taels that have been looted may not be enough."

Then he smiled miserably: "It's embarrassing to say that although I am the master of Tianhai County, since I took over the fiefdom, my thoughts have been entirely devoted to the consort and Ping Nanhou Mansion. Instead, I am ashamed of the people of the fiefdom.

Otherwise, even if Commander Hai had ten nerves that day, he would not have dared to commit such an outrageous act!

And these more than 10 million taels are not the result of Tianhai County Governor's greed for money in a year, but accumulated over the years. He takes away nine-tenths of the fief's income every year. Now the total money in my hands is only a hundred.

Come to ten thousand taels."

She let out a long sigh: "Even if I send all the money in my hand to Tianhai City, plus the 10 million taels of embezzlement money, it may not be enough to compensate the people -"

As she said that, she suddenly looked at Mrs. Zhao, her expression becoming more and more humble: "My daughter-in-law does not dare to ask my mother-in-law to help me pay off my debts. I only ask my mother-in-law to pay me back the money she owes me so that I can get through this difficult period.

"

Zhao was stunned: "When did I owe you money?"

Leng Lanzhi frowned: "Have you forgotten, mother-in-law? Six years ago, my husband-in-law and I just got married. I originally wanted to go back to the princess's mansion, but my mother-in-law said that my husband-in-law is not in the mansion and you are very lonely. I hope I can stay in Pingnan."

The Hou Mansion will accompany you.

You also said that Jinxiu Garden will be renovated for my use.

However, after resting in Jinxiu Garden, you said that the account was tight and asked me to advance the payment first and then pay it back to me when the funds in the Marquis Mansion's account were sufficient. This will take more than six years."

Mrs. Zhao glared: "You live in Jinxiu Garden, shouldn't you pay for the repairs?"

"But, I am only staying temporarily. Moreover, if my mother-in-law hadn't persuaded me to stay, I wouldn't have stayed. Now that I have moved out, Jinxiu Garden still belongs to Pingnan Hou Mansion. Not only can I not take away every brick or tile with me,

, and also renovated the dilapidated Jinxiu Garden, and today’s Jinxiu Garden can also be used as a new residence.”

She lowered her head slightly, looking a little embarrassed: "If it weren't for this critical moment, and my mother-in-law also said that my brothers would settle the score, I wouldn't want to bring this matter up."

She said quietly: "I hope my mother-in-law will take pity on me and return the three thousand and four hundred taels to me, otherwise in the next year, my consort and I will have to suffer from the northwest wind."

Mrs. Zhao came here to ask for money. Who would have thought that someone would beat her to the ground and ask for money in return?

And she used the same reason she used to extort money!

Go to hell and settle the score with your own brother!

"I don't know what you're talking about! I'm too lazy to pay attention to you!"

Not knowing how to face this strange situation, she finally ran away.

Leng Lanzhi's calm voice chased her far away: "I hope my mother-in-law will pay back the money as soon as possible. Otherwise, I can only take the contract I signed with the craftsman to Jingzhao Mansion and ask the governor to Your Excellency has made the decision. After all, I am really in a tight financial situation now~"

Zhao stumbled and ran faster.

She didn't believe it. Leng Lanzhi really dared to sue her mother-in-law!

Leng Lanzhi is really brave.

"Liusha, go to Pingnanhou Mansion and tell them. If they don't pay back the money before tomorrow evening, I will take the contract to Jingzhao Mansion and ask the governor of Jingzhao Mansion to make a decision."

Liusha's eyes lit up: "Yes!"

Anyway, this family has decided to be shameless, so why should she give it?

When things get serious, it will only be their family that is embarrassed.

The reputation that Shen Yizhi cared about most was about to be destroyed by his mother.

It's also funny.

I wonder what Shen Yizhi will think when he finds out.

After Shen Yi finished work, he went back to Pingnan Hou Mansion as usual, and then he realized that something outrageous had happened in his family.

His mother ran to the gate of the princess's mansion and asked how many millions of taels the princess wanted in front of the people in the capital?

And even though the princess didn’t give her any money, she asked for a debt of 3,400 taels in turn?

Shen Yizhi swore that he had never heard of such an outrageous thing in his life.

What's even more outrageous is that he cherished feathers for more than 20 years, and it took him several years of business to gain a good reputation.

As a result, within a little more than a month after returning to Beijing, she was about to be killed by her mother and her tool wife.

His mood is hard to describe in words.

It's simply more uncomfortable than being pinned to the ground by Leng Lan's order and slapped with a plank!
