"No!" Dr. Jiang screamed in horror. Before he took action, he already felt severe pain in his fingers. He quickly said: "I really don't know anything. Please let me go."
"Do it." Those two cold words responded to him. The emotionless tone frightened Dr. Jiang. Seeing the man getting closer and closer to him, he finally changed his words: "I said, I said,
In fact, the injuries on their faces are not caused by using
They were not caused by rouge and gouache, but someone gave me a medicine and asked me to rub it on their faces. After using this medicine, their faces would become red, swollen and ulcerated within a day or two. It looked scary, but in fact it was just
It’s just superficial, as long as it’s treated a little it will be fine.”
Yang Hai listened to his words carefully and said, "Who gave you the medicine?"
"I don't know." Seeing that Yang Hai was about to speak again, he quickly said with a grimace: "I swear, I really don't know. That man just gave me a thousand taels of silver and asked me to do as he asked.
I didn’t ask many questions. After applying medicine to those people, I found out that they were going to sue **Zhai. Later, **Zhai was closed by Shuntian Prefecture, and they came to me to heal the wounds on their faces."
Yang Hai pondered for a moment and said, "Are those banknotes still there?"
Doctor Jiang said reluctantly: "There are...three hundred taels left."
"Go and get them all." In response to Yang Hai's words, Doctor Jiang did not dare to resist and reluctantly took out the banknotes. Yang Hai took a look and found that all the 100 taels of banknotes came from Baoshun Bank.
hand.
Yang Hai thought for a moment and said: "Do you want to live or die?"
Doctor Jiang said with a sad face without thinking, "I want to live, so I beg you to be noble and spare my life."
"If you want to live, just listen to my instructions and tell the truth in front of Shuntian Fuyin, and you will be innocent." Yang Hai's words made Dr. Jiang pale in shock. He shook his head repeatedly and said: "No! No! If the truth is revealed,
If I tell you, those people will come and kill me!"
Doctor Jiang's words made Yang Hai look cold and said in a dark voice: "I don't know if he will kill you, but I know that if you are unwilling to do as I tell you, I will take your life now.
"
"I...I..." Doctor Jiang was in a dilemma, not knowing what to do. No matter which side he listened to, he could not escape the danger of death. After a long time, he finally made up his mind, looked at Doctor Jiang and gritted his teeth and said: "I can
I’ll help you, but you must ensure my safety. After everything is done, I will be given ten thousand taels of silver, and then I will be sent immediately to leave the capital and change my name. Don’t tell me that you can’t do it.”
"Ten thousand taels?" Yang Hai said in surprise, and then said: "Jiang, you are like a lion. You can ask for ten thousand taels of silver just by moving your mouth. You think this silver can be picked up all over the street."
Doctor Jiang also put aside his fear at this time and gritted his teeth and said: "This is a matter of risking your life. Ten thousand taels is not much. What if you agree to let me go to court to testify for you, otherwise you will kill me now."
"
Yang Hai sneered and said a little sharply: "Hey, when did you become so unafraid of death?"
Dr. Jiang's body couldn't help but tremble, and he gritted his teeth and said, "You don't need to say so much. Do you agree?"
Yang Hai patted his clothes and stood up and said: "I can't promise you this. I have to go back and ask my master. But before that, I have to trouble you to go somewhere with me."
"Where to go?" Dr. Jiang stared at Yang Hai with a wary expression. Although he had spoken forcefully just now, he was just speaking forcefully, and he was still very scared in his heart.
How could he hide these thoughts from Yang Hai, who had been in the palace for many years? He smiled coldly and said: "Don't worry, I won't kill you."
After saying this, Yang Hai ordered the two men to hold Doctor Jiang and leave the hospital through the small door on the side. Xiao Zhengzi took him to Hongli's other hospital. Along the way, Doctor Jiang's back vertebrae
There is a hand firmly pressing on him. As long as he makes the slightest move or says something he shouldn't say, that hand will twist one of his vertebrae off. Even if he doesn't die, he will be paralyzed for life. Life is worse than death.
.
After arriving at the other courtyard, after placing Dr. Jiang in place and having someone keep an eye on him, Yang Haimai returned to the palace without stopping and reported the matter to Ling Ruo. It happened that the Guerjia family was also there, and Dr. Jiang heard that
When he asked for 10,000 taels of silver, he opened his lips and sneered, "This man named Jiang is really brave. For ten thousand taels, I don't even think about whether I have the life flower."
Ling Ruo stared at the tea leaves slowly unfolding in the cup and said coldly: "We force him to go to Shuntian Mansion to expose those people's fraud and restore the reputation of Zhengzhai. For him, it is tantamount to risking his life and committing suicide."
Just take as much as you can ask for.”
"Then what are your plans to give him the silver?" Guarjia frowned and said: "Besides, ten thousand taels is not a small amount. Do you have that much silver? I can piece it together over there, and I can get it at most.
Come out with two thousand taels."
These words made Ling Ruo frown. Indeed, ten thousand taels of silver was not a small amount. She did not have that much silver in her hands. After thinking for a while, she said: "Yang Hai, go see the man named Jiang tomorrow."
Yes, tell him that the most we can promise him is five thousand taels. If he refuses to agree, that’s it, but he can’t even think of leaving the other courtyard alive.”
Yang Hai agreed and then said hesitantly: "Master, if he refuses, do you really want to kill him?"
Ling Ruo glanced at him and said: "Do you really think that I like killing people so much? It's just to scare him. The man named Jiang is obviously a person who is greedy for life and afraid of death. What he cares about most is his life after all.
As long as the silver is enough, it will be enough. Otherwise, as Concubine Jin said, no matter how much money you have, it will be in vain."
When Yang Hai agreed, Guarjia said: "I will ask Cong Xiang to send you the silver later, but please don't take it. I don't have any place in the palace where I need the silver."
"Thank you very much, sister." Ling Ruo was not too polite to her. After all, it was quite difficult to raise five thousand taels of silver in one go, especially since her family did not fish for silver like the Nala clan.
After saying this, Guarjia suddenly said: "Has Rong promised to come to your place often to say hello lately?"
Ling Ruo said in surprise: "I come here often, but how did my sister know?"
Guarjia shook the fan in her hand and chuckled: "I also guessed that a new person will soon enter the palace. She has been in the palace for three years, but she is still an unpopular person. She may not know when she will show up to these people.
Do you think she won't be impatient when the newlyweds salute? Naturally, she can't wait to curry favor with you, my beloved concubine, and is looking forward to you saying a nice word for her in front of the emperor."
Ling Ruo said softly: "Sometimes, being too eager for quick success can actually make people disgusted. And she can betray the Ma Jia family that day, and she may betray me at any time. I don't want to ask for trouble."
