Chapter 36
Inspector Yan was stunned immediately.

Of course he knew the importance of Qin Ruizhi's words.

As expected, Qin Ruizhi's next words came: "Young Master Ling borrowed 1 taels of gold from the Pei family, 1 taels of gold. How many years of salary do you, the governor of Xiazhou, have to pay back these 1 taels?" Debt of gold.”

Qin Ruizhi increased the tone of the golden tone. Every time he bit hard, Governor Yan's heart skipped a beat.

Governor Yan suddenly turned around, walked up to Qin Ruizhi, and asked in a low voice, "What exactly are you planning?"

"Close the case for me and send me back to Beijing. Then the loan deed will be burned to ashes in the fire. Poof, it will be wiped out.

Qin Ruizhi stared at her big innocent eyes and made a blowing gesture, the implication being obvious.

This is also a threat.

If Governor Yan doesn't do what Qin Ruizhi wants, then with Qin Ruizhi's unconventional and even crazy personality, she will definitely return the loan deed to Pei Xingheng, and then the 1 taels of gold borrowed by his son will have to be returned to Pei Xingheng. return.

"I need to think carefully about such a big thing."

Governor Yan did not reply immediately. Qin Ruizhi could not be offended, and the wife who had a polite banquet could not be convicted. The relationship between the Pei family must continue, and the relationship between the three parties must be balanced.

"Then you think about it quickly. I am delicate and expensive, so I can't live in a prison all the time."

After saying that, Qin Ruizhi lay down on the haystack, crossed her legs, closed her eyes and rested her mind.

Although she was born in a noble family and was a good daughter pampered by her "father" before she was six years old, but since her "father"'s concubine had her mother caesarean section to have her son, the emperor was partial and only fined her "father" half a year's salary. She had no way to complain, so she ran away angrily, changed her name, and vowed to take revenge.

In the countless years that followed, she practiced with all her might, in the scorching summer and the cold weather, without stopping for a day. She rolled through mud, climbed through mountains of corpses and seas of blood, and lived through all kinds of hardships.

Now I'm just sleeping on a haystack in prison, how can I dare to talk about suffering.

Qin Ruizhi fell asleep quickly.

It was such a long night.

Pei Xingheng couldn't sleep all night, tossing and turning... unable to turn around, and it hurt like hell when he moved, so he could only maintain a stiff posture until dawn.

When the sky shows a little white fish belly, I will fall asleep.

He vaguely heard someone knocking on the door, and he couldn't wake up from his deep sleep. It wasn't until a cool breeze hit his face that he felt like he had taken a bath, and he suddenly woke up.

As soon as he opened his eyes, he saw Chai Pei standing in front of his window holding a basin with a look of disbelief on his face: "Just now...were you splashing water on me?"

Chai Pei put the basin on the table, wiped away the water stains on his body, and straightened his clothes, "Mr. Pei, you are finally awake. If you don't wake up, I will have to ask a doctor to give you an injection to prolong your life." ”

Pei Xingheng rubbed his drowsy head, "I was seriously injured. I was in so much pain last night that I didn't sleep all night. I just fell asleep this morning. I hadn't slept for a long time when I woke you up again." "You slept peacefully." ?" Chai Pei looked down at Pei Xingheng with a complicated expression, "I heard that you sent County Magistrate Gao's niece to prison?"

It was okay not to mention Qin Ruizhi, but when he mentioned Qin Ruizhi, the pain that had just subsided spread all over Pei Xingheng's body again. He wanted to give Qin Ruizhi a hammer seventeen or eighteen times, and said angrily:

"That... that vicious woman, she actually set fire to a whole street of shops in my Pei family. She was the one who set fire to the Guangli Tong store nine out of ten times. People like her should be cut to pieces. Sending her to jail would be an advantage.

What's more, I didn't send her in. It was like she took the wrong medicine. She was just begging in the Pei Mansion, waiting for the government to catch her. "

Pei Xingheng pushed himself up from the bed, his eyes were red, swollen and bloodshot, "Brother Chai, after thinking about it, I feel that this girl's behavior is incoherent and unbelievable. What kind of tricks is she trying to play? Is she trying to extort my money?"

Pei Xingheng's impression of Qin Ruizhi began when Qin Ruizhi eloped back to Beijing with Su Pan. Before that, she was just a niece raised by Magistrate Gao in the back house and rarely went out. She had never been seen before and her personality was unknown.

Qin Ruizhi eloped back to Beijing with Su Pan and almost lost her life. Instead of crying and renewing her relationship with Su Pan, she went to the Su family to extort 1 taels of silver.

Later, she learned that Mrs. Yan had set up a trap to harm her, so she went to the Yan family to stage a cruel trick. Instead of sending the perpetrator to jail, she collected 5000 taels of silver from the Yan family.

As a result, judging from all the previous actions, Qin Ruizhi regards money as life, and all the purposes are to extort money.

But she burned down the Pei family's shop and sent herself to prison. How could she extort money?

Pei Xingheng's head almost exploded thinking about it.

"She burned down your Pei family's shop because you forged a loan deed and defrauded her of 5000 taels of silver. She wanted to teach you a lesson. This is called repaying an eye for an eye. As for her taking the initiative to go to jail..."

Pei Xingheng thought for a moment, "I guess she wants to return to Kyoto in this way."

"Go back to Kyoto?" Pei Xingheng thought this reason was too nonsense, "Just go back to Kyoto, drive a car or ride a horse back, but she can go back after she burned down my Pei family's shop and put herself in jail?"

"She burned your shop because you defrauded her of her money. She dared to take the initiative to go to jail, and she was sure that you didn't dare to hold her responsible for arson."

Pei Xingheng laughed angrily when he heard Chai Pei's words, "She is really whimsical. Not only will I hold her responsible for arson, but I will also ask Governor Yan to severely sentence her. She just waits to die. I guarantee that she will definitely I can’t return to Kyoto, but I am kind-hearted and will wait for her to die and burn to ashes before sending her back to Kyoto.”

Chai Pei chuckled and said, "Mr. Pei, you seem to have forgotten that although Qin Ruizhi's surname is Qin, she is a child raised by the Gao family. Mr. Pei was restrained in everything when he planned to set up Guanglitong in Kyoto. Have you ever thought about it, now that Prime Minister Su has followed the path It doesn’t work, then why don’t your Pei family try the Gao family’s method?”

"Ah?" Pei Xingheng felt as if someone had knocked him on the head, and he was dazed.

Chai Pei sighed, shook his head and said: "Mr. Pei, my daughter gave me a dowry of 50 taels at the banquet, and I got myself the magistrate of Fengan County, Jeju. Guanglitong is a fortune-teller and a treasure-gathering tripod. How much do you think your Pei family should give away?" Only money can satisfy Prime Minister Su’s appetite?”

"At least three or seven points." Chai Pei made a gesture, "Prime Minister Su gets seven points, and your Pei family gets three points. Mr. Pei just rented the house, and there was a life lawsuit in the house. You don't think it's a coincidence, do you?"

"Brother Chai, what do you mean..." Pei Xingheng suddenly understood after hearing what he said, "Not only can I not hold Qin Ruizhi accountable for the crime of arson, but I also have to get her out of prison and send her back to Kyoto safely. In this way, the Gao family can accept my kindness and help my Pei family organize Guanglitong in Kyoto."
