Jian Xiao returned to the room. Eucommia was checking Tuo Jinglie's injuries. The marks on his left arm that were cut by a knife shocked Jian Xiao. "How is Brother Yun?"
"Fortunately, I have my life, but this arm..." Du Zhong sighed, "Who can be so cruel to kill the second young master like this!"
"Is your leg okay?" Jian Xiao looked at the traces of beatings on Tuoba Yun's lower body.
"Take a rest for two days and you should be fine." Eucommia ulmoides crushed the herbs and applied them to Tuoba Yun's wound.
Jian Xiao knows Tuoba Yun's skills. It would be difficult for someone to hurt him to this extent. "Brother Yun, Brother Yun..."
"He has lost too much blood now and is still resting," Du Zhong explained. "I gave him Ma Fei Powder and he will probably sleep for a day. I didn't know that the second young master saw his arm when he got up. Hey... where is the young master?"
Jian Xiao shook his head. None of the people who inquired about the information had come back yet, but what made Jian Xiao even more uneasy was that Mr. Yan and his group didn't even come to the door. Today is the deadline. If nothing unexpected happens, they will definitely come to question the crime.
, such calmness makes people uneasy
"Ah..." A heartbreaking voice came from
When Jian Xiao looked back, she found that Tuoba Yun had woken up for some reason. "Go back and tell my brother that I have hidden a batch of our goods. Tell my brother quickly..."
"Brother Yun, you are back, you are already home." Jian Xiao rushed over. Tuoba Yun closed his eyes and his body was shaking on the bed, just like in a nightmare.
Du Zhong hurriedly walked over, felt for his pulse, and then took a look at Kuai Bayun's eyelids, "He is still unconscious. He is talking nonsense. We need to calm him down first!"
"Brother Yun, it's okay, your elder brother already knows!" Jian Xiao grabbed Tuoba Yun's right hand that was still swinging in the air and comforted softly.
"You idiot! I'm going to kill you! Despicable..." Tuoba Yun was still cursing.
Eucommia ulmoides took a bowl of soup and drank it for Tuoba Yun. His mood calmed down a little. Jian Xiao sighed, and the room was desolate. Tuo Jinglie, where have you been? Are you just leaving this mess to me?
Jian Xiao went out, and the snow outside became heavier. The large snowflakes drowned Jian Xiao's depression. She stood in the middle of the snow, closed her eyes, and let her tears flow.
"Madam..." Jiaojiao and Yueyue's voices sounded, "What's wrong with you?"
At this time, she couldn't let her own people see the fragile side of the only person who could take charge. Jian Xiao quickly wiped away her tears, coughed twice, and cleared her throat, "The room is a little stuffy. I came out to get some air. Tuo Jinglie's
Got the news?"
"Mr. Ye said that he had never seen the crown prince. We went to Master Yan's house and found out that he had gone out early. We climbed over the wall and went in. We heard that he had gone to the Yamen."
Yamen? Jian Xiao was deeply surprised by this answer. She suddenly remembered something, "Do you still have the deposit and other things in the house?"
"Madam, everything is gone!" Boken came back with the herbal medicine. "I came back from the drug store and ran into our cashier. He said that the prince had left with the deposit earlier."
No, Tuo Jinglie is going to do something stupid. "Boken, you take care of Brother Yun at home. No one in the family can leave at will! Wait for my news!" After Jian Xiao finished speaking, he hurried towards the Yamen.
Above the yamen, Tuo Jinglie stood at the bottom of the hall, with a large box behind him and a group of businessmen headed by Mr. Yan sitting on both sides.
"I just came here today to ask for justice. The contract at that time said that there should be an eight-cent profit. However, something happened to the goods I imported into the customs. Now I can only repay the eighty percent and the remaining twenty percent. I think
Return later"
"Postponing? That won't work. We pay for each penny, and a sum of money is indispensable. I heard that Tuo Gongzi also has properties in Chang'an and Longnan Road. Why not just sell them to repay the money and goods?"
"I, Tuoba City, have already been unable to make ends meet, and I have spent all the money I can," Tuo Jinglie explained.
"But that's not my news!" Mr. Yan stood up, "There are still people coming and going from your inn on Longnan Road and your house in Chang'an."
"That's not mine," Tuo Jinglie said, "it's just that of a friend of mine."
"She's not your wife?" Master Yan pressed.
"Humph, how is that possible? Everyone knows that I have no marriage contract," Tuo Jinglie said, "I hope you will learn from it and allow me a few days of grace."
The official looked at Tuo Jinglie and asked Lord Yan in a low voice, "What do you think, Lord Yan?"
Mr. Yan thought for a while, "Wait a moment!" After saying that, he walked back to the back hall and Tuo Jinglie looked over and found that there was still a person hiding there. He sneered. Jian Xiao was right. Gao Tianduo was really involved in this matter.
Doesn't matter
After a while, Mr. Yan came out and whispered to the officials.
"Have the adults discussed this?" Tuo Jinglie said sarcastically.
The officials present rushed out with their killing sticks and wanted to hit Tuo Jinglie. Unexpectedly, Tuo Jinglie just flicked his wrist and they all stood there, unable to move.
"You..." Naihe Tuo Jinglie, the official, was very skillful. Although he was a sinner, he still did not dare to offend. "I have decided that it is necessary to repay 20%, but you are not paying back the full amount."
You must stay in prison until you pay your debt!"
"OK!"
"no!"
A female voice came from the lobby. When Tuo Jinglie looked back, Jian Xiao was standing there panting, "No way, he is the head of my family. What will happen if he doesn't get out of jail?"
"Who is making a noise in the lobby? Pull him down..." the official shouted
"Hmph, how could the Tang Dynasty allow officials from other countries to participate in political affairs?" Jian Xiao retorted.
The official was speechless and could only watch Jian Xiao walk in.
She ran to Tuo Jinglie, "Why? You didn't tell me to make such a decision alone? Who asked you to do this, abandon me, the whole family, and the entire Tuoba family?"
"The house in Chang'an and Longnan Road are yours, take good care of them."
"I'll sell it right now..."
"It's useless to sell it!" Tuo Jinglie shouted, "The money is not enough to pay off the debt, and it also makes you homeless, so why don't you leave me alone!"
"Tuo Jinglie, you weren't like this before! Is there something we can solve together? Are you hiding in the cell like this, prepared to hide for the rest of your life?"
Tuo Jinglie stretched out his hand and grabbed Jian Xiao's hand, "Don't we still have you? It's natural to pay back debts. When can I repay the money and when can I come out again? Isn't it right? I'll wait until our goods come back.
So I can wait for Yun'er to come back..."
Jian Xiao wanted to tell him that the goods could not be returned, and Tuoba Yun almost died, but she could not say it. She looked coldly at the faces of the people around her, gloating like that, clearly knowing that Tuo Jinglie's goods had been lost. Gao Tianduo's smile
Even more abominable
Tuo Jinglie kissed Jian Xiao's hands gently, "I believe in you, and you should believe in me too!"
Jian Xiao looked at the people in the lobby, "Just wait! If I don't let him leave here safely within ten days, I, Jian Xiao, will leave my head to you!" After saying that, he strode away, Jian Xiao's hands tightened.
