My wife is number one in the world

Chapter 47

Qin Bin looked at the silver piled in front of him with an embarrassed expression. Each ingot was a full ten taels of silver. At a cursory glance, there were as many as forty or fifty ingots on the table.

With so much silver in front of him, it would be a lie to say that he is not moved. Qin Bin was born in a poor family, his father died early, and his mother Zhou raised them.

Four 500 taels are in front of me, how much does it take my mother to help the gentry wash the clothes to earn so much money.lifetime?Ten lives?

"Member Liu, you called the junior to see you just to show the junior how much money you have?"

The folding fan in Liu Zhi'an's hand kept hitting the palm of his hand, and the old god was calm: "Qin Bin, this old man heard that you were invited by Su Wei'er from Penglai Pavilion to help him fight for the courtesan. I wonder if it's true or not?"

Qin Bin looked at Liu Zhi'an suspiciously, wondering why the richest man in the south of the Yangtze River asked such a question: "This is exactly what happened, I don't know how the member outside learned about this matter, and what does it have to do with the member outside calling the juniors to come here this time? ."

Liu Zhian chuckled lightly: "This old man is not boasting, as the richest man in the south of the Yangtze River, as long as he has enough money, his eyes and ears will be able to traverse any place in the south of the Yangtze River, any trouble in the south of the Yangtze River, the old man will know if he wants to know, even if it is from the prefectural government. Housework is nothing more than spending a little more money."

Qin Bin looked at the unassuming Liu Zhi'an in horror. When such a smiling old man talked about wanting to spy on the Shifu, it was as easy as digging into a bag to get things. How could a businessman have such confidence.

Suddenly, Qin Bin came to his senses, fearing that if he spread the word about what happened today, he would die without a place to be buried.

"So please let me know what Liu Yuanwai's intentions are?"

Liu Zhi'an took out a copy of the Four Treasures of the Study from behind: "Refuting Su Wei's invitation, the 500 taels of silver is yours. This matter is known to everyone, and no one else will know it. Write a letter." There are only 500 taels of silver, such a good thing can’t be found with a lantern.”

Qin Bin eloquently said: "When a gentleman says something, a horse is hard to follow. As the saying goes, a gentleman will do what he says and agree to Miss Su's affairs. If the younger generation breaks promises to others, I am afraid that all the students in the south of the Yangtze River will treat the younger generation differently. Buy it for 500 taels of silver." You should underestimate this junior's reputation throughout his life."

"Then you must go?" Liu Zhi'an's tone suddenly became indifferent, an invisible pressure made Qin Bin dare not look at this ordinary middle-aged man.

However, Qin Bin, who bowed his head, still said anxiously: "If it's only because of 500 taels of silver, the younger generation must go."

"Qin Bin, a member of the Qin family, his father, Qin Zhengxuande, died of illness in the eighth year, his mother Zhou and the city gentry An Daoming's family did laundry to subsidize the family, earning seven dollars a month. Qin Bin went to the Qin family's private school Feng Feng when he was a child. He studied under the consecrated door, and then went to Dangyang Academy to study hard under Liu Liang’s door of the C-character class, and plans to participate in the autumn festival in August this year.”

Qin Bin trembled, but still said firmly: "I promise not to be light, I will not let others down, a gentleman inherently has a word, life and death follow one another."

"Is it worth it for the invitation of a mere brothel woman?"

"Words must be believed, deeds must be fruitful. In the eyes of the younger generation, there is no worthy or unworthy, only promises and non-promises."

Liu Zhian pouted: "Do you know the difference between the Penglai Building and the Qixiu Building and the Yanyu Pavilion?"

Qin Bin was stunned and said respectfully: "Penglai Building is the Ministry of Education of the imperial court, and Qixiu Building and Yanyu Pavilion are private brothels."

"You must be wondering why the old man stopped you from going to Qinhuai Huafang to stop you from helping Su Weier, right? She, a famous prostitute in a brothel, the rich man in Jiangnan, has nothing to do with anything, right?"

"Liu Yuanwai is very knowledgeable, and the younger generation does have doubts in their hearts. With Liu Yuanwai's identity, even if Miss Su is one of the famous prostitutes in the south of the Yangtze River, it is not worth the trouble of being Liu Yuanwai."

Liu Zhi'an fell into deep thought and recalled: "Su Wei'er's family name is Ling, she is from Suzhou, she was filled into the Penglai Pavilion of Jiaofang Si in Xuande 17 years."

Qin Bin was confused, and the analyst Liu Zhian's words meant that, suddenly Qin Bin looked surprised: "Could it be that Miss Su is the orphan of Lord Ling Daoming?"

"25 years ago, that is, the second year of Xuande, the old man Liu Zhian, Ling Daoming, and Song Yu became brothers with different surnames in Dangyang Academy. The eldest brother Song Yu and the good brother Ling Daoming are both geniuses, but the old man can't read well. , No one has ever been on the list.”

"In the 17th year of Xuande, Ling Daoming, the governor of Suzhou, was sentenced to death by Wei Yong, then Minister of the Ministry of Officers and Soldiers, on the charge of treason for the White Lotus Sect's attack on the city. Fangsi is a prostitute."

"and after?"

"I befriended my elder brother Song Yu who was the Minister of Rites at the time, and even went out to the same mountain as Master Tong Sansi, Minister of the Ministry of Officials. After several adjustments, Su Weier's lifelong prostitution was changed to 15 years. Xiao Xiao is a girl who grew up in a family of officials. Not only is she good-looking, but she is also a proud girl who is familiar with poetry and books. Her family suffered a sudden change and she had to make compromises in order to survive. Under the guidance of the old bustard, she gradually became famous in Qinhuai One of the whores."

"Miss Su is considered to be the half daughter of a non-member?"

"That's right, the three of us are like brothers and sisters, even closer than a sibling of a mother. I even had a baby relationship with Brother Ling Xian. Strictly speaking, this child Wei Er is the daughter-in-law of the old man."

Qin Bin wanted to stop talking.

"You want to ask the old man why he didn't redeem himself for Wei Er?"

"Exactly."

"As soon as Wei'er was charged into the Jiaofang Division, the old man took out 30 silver from his family property to redeem Wei'er's life. 30 taels of silver is more than enough to buy a hundred Penglai buildings, but Penglai Building is the official family of Jiaofangsi. place, and this matter ultimately came to nothing.”

"Then why did Liu Yuanwai stop the younger generation from going to the painting boat to help Miss Su?"

"This is the decision made by the elder brother Song Yu and the old man. The more famous Wei Er is, the more likely it will be passed on to the left minister Wei Yong. Wei Yong is a ruthless person who will do anything to preserve his position. He knows that the orphans of the people he framed in the past have such a great reputation, and he will definitely murder Wei Er in order to keep his reputation."

Qin Bin was a little unconvinced: "Zuo Xiang and Miss Su have very different identities. Would he do such a thing?"

"My brother Ling Xian was executed, do you think it was because he secretly colluded with the rioters of the White Lotus Sect? Wrong, because Wei Yong's nephew Wei Gang killed three people by mistake in Suzhou, and was sentenced by Ling Inspector to Qiu Hou for asking. Beheaded, Wei Yong, as the Minister of War at the time, wanted to protect his nephew secretly, so he wrote a letter to my worthy brother, but was rejected by my virtuous brother. Therefore, he held a grudge and executed my virtuous brother on an unprovoked charge."

"Even if the Minister of the Left wants to frame up, the DPRK will naturally send a censor to investigate the truth. If it is really framed, even Zuo Dang, who was the Minister of War at the time, would have nothing to do. After all, the censor is a vassal official, and Suzhou is Zhongzhou. , As a senior member of the fourth rank, Inspector Ling will not be so careless, right? Your Majesty will definitely check the memorial of the imperial censor."

Liu Zhi'an sighed: "The 17th year of Xuande was the three-yearly autumn exam. Brother Ling Xian's nephew was the top student in Suzhou, Jie Yuan, so Brother Ling Xian was happy and drank a few more glasses. The attack on Suzhou city at night resulted in seven deaths and thirteen injuries, and a loss of 17 taels of money from the common people, but the Prime Minister Zuo learned about it."

"Even so, Inspector Ling was at most sent to the county to become an official, and at the most he was dismissed from office. How could he be executed?"

Liu Zhi'an's expression became grim: "If Wei Yong hadn't interfered with it, how could the virtuous brother end up like this? Unfortunately, this old man is a businessman who has more than his heart but not enough strength. My eldest brother Song Yu, who is honest and upright, has to submit to King Duan. Below, it is to bring down the minister of power Wei Yong one day to avenge the bloody vengeance of my third brother Ling Daoming's family, so that my third brother can smile Jiuquan."

Qin Bin's face turned ugly, knowing whether he was safe or not after knowing such a secret blessing.

"I know that you are a filial person, so I took the 500 taels of silver to honor your high hall and forget what happened today, otherwise I will have to be a heartless person who lost his family."

Qin Bin knew the cause and effect, and didn't say anything. After all, Liu Zhi'an really didn't want to covet and Su Wei's beauty.
