Qin Liuxi refused Teng Tianhan's invitation to stay temporarily in his mansion, but still went to the Baiju Inn, which had been arranged for a long time. The two parties agreed to pick her up the next day and go to see Teng Zhao.
Just when she returned to the inn, she saw Xiao Zhanrui sitting in the hotel lobby waiting for him, and beside her was a middle-aged man in rich clothes and a slightly haggard face.
"Master, you are back." Xiao Zhanrui stood up when he saw Qin Liuxi, and the man beside him also stood up and looked at Qin Liuxi.
Qin Liuxi glanced at the man, then looked at Xiao Zhanrui: "What are you doing here?"
"I don't have anything else to do. I just want to tell you that the Crown Prince is gone."
"Let's go." Qin Liuxi walked up the stairs and said, "Young Master Xiao doesn't need to come over to tell me these things. He and I also met by chance."
"There is one more thing I want to ask Master." Xiao Zhanrui chased after him.
Qin Liuxi asked his old enemy to rest on his own. The latter saw that Xiao Zhanrui had brought people, but he did not move and said: "Since there are foreigners, I will wait for the master to rest before going."
He was sent by Yu Qiucai, and he listened to Yu Qiucai's instructions. He was to follow Qin Liuxi and serve him well, and he had to send everyone back in one piece. Then the mission was over.
After getting along with him for the past few days, he found that although Qin Liuxi had a poisonous mouth, his heart was bright, he had a scale, he didn't have many things going on, and he was a sensible person.
Now Xiao Zhanrui came with someone. Although the fat man looked fat, his eyes were shining and he looked cunning and shrewd. Who knew what he was planning.
He had to watch, lest anything bad happen, and the master would have to fight alone.
Qin Liuxi looked at his old enemy standing like a pillar, with a hint of smile in his eyes. Then he looked at Xiao Zhanrui and said, "If you want to introduce me to a letter guest, then you don't have to."
Xiao Zhanrui was stunned for a moment, then he said with a smile: "Master is really magical." He winked at the fat man, who quickly stepped forward and crossed his hands in greeting: "Master, my surname is Jia, and I am known as Jia Yuanwai."
Qin Liuxi poured a cup of tea, drank it, and said, "I can't help you, you should go back and prepare for the funeral."
The fat man's face changed drastically, and his body was trembling with fat.
Xiao Zhanrui was also confused and said: "Master, Jia Yuanwai is doing it for his son..."
"I know." Qin Liuxi said: "His hall is obscure and dark, and his children's palace is sunken and dull. He greets guests at the door and looks like he has lost his son. His son cannot be saved."
The fat man knelt down with a pop, held out a stack of banknotes from his sleeve, and begged: "Master, please save my son's life. I can give you as much silver as you want."
Qin Liuxi didn't even raise his eyelids or look at the banknote he was holding. He said coldly: "Have you ever heard of the saying that if you do something wrong, you will be punished? If you do something, you will have to pay with your life."
The fat man's face turned pale: "Master..."
"Old enemy."
The old enemy immediately stepped forward and pulled the fat man up by forcing and pulling him: "Master is about to arrange it, please."
Qin Liuxi added: "For Young Master Xiao's sake, let me give you a piece of advice. For the sins your son has committed, you, the father, should take the banknotes to appease the suffering master and atone for his sins. Otherwise, your dead son will not be enough."
Your family will be in bad luck."
The fat man was furious: "It's okay if you don't save me, why are you cursing me? How can you..."
"Old Jia." Xiao Zhanrui's face changed when he saw him having an attack, and he quickly blocked him and scolded him: "You are here to ask for help from the master, how can you be rude?"
Qin Liuxi disagreed and glanced at his old enemy.
The fat man was ‘invited’ out by his old enemy.
Xiao Zhanrui saw that Qin Liuxi's face was not good-looking, so he felt a little at a loss and said: "Master, I really want to make you laugh. Jia Yuanwai also loves his son very much, so I..."
"Mr. Xiao, you, a noble official, must be careful when making friends. Otherwise, if you don't pay attention, you will cause trouble for yourself and the family. It will be more than worth the loss." Qin Liuxi said with a cold face: "Although I am also good at making money.
, but I pay more attention to cause and effect. I won’t earn some sesame oil and money for fear of committing sin. Forget it this time, I don’t want it to happen again.”
Xiao Zhanrui was a little embarrassed, and he folded his hands and apologized: "I was the one who made the mistake."
Qin Liuxi picked up the tea and retreated wisely.
The old enemy came back soon and said: "Master, I have already left."
"Yeah. If Xiao Zhanrui brings some random people here again, get him out of here." What the hell.
The old enemy looked at her and asked curiously: "What did that man's son do?"
"Of course I have harmed someone, and now they are here to collect debts." Qin Liuxi sneered.
"Is that really hopeless?"
Qin Liuxi said: "I can save you, but why? Don't you think it's a sin?"
"That's right, there are things you can do but not things you can't do." Lao Qiu agreed in a serious tone, and then sighed: "It's a pity. I saw that the stack of banknotes he had was worth a thousand taels. That stack was worth tens of thousands at least.
two."
Qin Liuxi: "..."
I suspect you are inside me.
Old Qiu Surong crossed his hands: "Master is worthy of being a master of Xuanmen. He regards A Duwu as dirt. I admire you, old Qiu!"
Qin Liuxi glared at her, "Shut up!"
"You go and get settled. We'll see the kid from the Yi family tomorrow. If nothing happens, we'll go back to Licheng."
Old Qiu crossed his hands and left, closing the door. He heard the sound of fists hitting the table inside. He thought to himself, the master must be scolding the fat man's naughty son for not having a good death. He was really kind and a good man.
Outside the inn, the fat man looked at Xiao Zhanrui helplessly and said: "Master Xiao, look at this, she actually asked me to prepare for the funeral, which is not even a big deal, and she cursed me, it's just..."
Xiao Zhanrui was embarrassed by Qin Liuxi and was not in a happy mood. He was afraid of offending her. After hearing what the fat man said, he said with a dark face: "Old Jia, you have to have a begging attitude when asking for help. You just couldn't stand it anymore."
, you have already offended someone, who will help you?"
"I, I also got angry at the moment. She said there was no way to help, so I couldn't help it. You know, my old Jia gave birth to a litter of money-losing babies, so I got such a good successor to the family line. I can't watch him die.
Okay. Could it be that she thinks the money I get is too little, and I beg her for more money?"
Xiao Zhanrui said: "She is not such a person either."
"How do you understand that these alchemists are the best at pretending to be superiors and playing tricks on Qiao? Ten thousand taels is not enough, so I will take twenty or thirty thousand, as long as she can save my son!" The fat man said through gritted teeth.
Xiao Zhanrui's mouth twitched: "It's not about the money, this master's temperament is a bit weird. Old Jia, I also know that there is a magician who also has some magical powers. He might be able to save Jia Zhen. I'll give you an address. You can go quickly.
Let someone search for it."
"Thank you so much, Mr. Xiao. Please keep this little thing." The fat man stuffed two banknotes and said, "I will send someone over when I get back. I don't believe that my son is really hopeless. If she doesn't save him, how can he still do it?"
There are other masters."
As he spoke, he spit a mouthful of thick phlegm on the ground, which was very vulgar.
Xiao Zhanrui felt a little disgusted, frowned, gave an address, and left without looking back. It was better not to see this man again, so as not to be implicated by him.
