Chapter 266 Repayment of Debt, Justifiably
Thanks to the Seventh Prince, the old witch's family, which had been forgotten by people, is now active in everyone's sight. On that day, the Jingzhao government officials confirmed that the old witch died of anger, not at the hands of others. The meaning of arresting those debt collectors is to just go through the scene and it will be over. The people clap their hands and applaud them, calling them what they deserve.
Shen Ruijiang's left hand was broken, Lu Yang was penniless, and the old witch's body was kept at home for three days without being encoffined. Fortunately, it is winter now, otherwise it would be stinky. This is not the most difficult, the most difficult Yes, those debt collectors saw that the government turned a blind eye and turned a blind eye, regardless of whether their family was dead or not, they still came to collect debts every day, and even threatened to take Lu Yang away to pay the debts.
"Let go of me, he is the one who owes the debt, go to him, don't, don't arrest me"
In the small courtyard where the old hag's family lived, Lu Yang was disheveled like a crazy woman, and the two debt collectors desperately wanted to take her away, while Shen Ruijiang huddled aside and shivered.
"You are his wife. He has sold you to us to pay off the debt. It is only natural to pay the debt. Take it away."
Regardless of her struggle, the debt collector forcibly pulled her outside, and Lu Yang turned her head hysterically and shouted, "Shen Ruijiang, are you human? I'm your wife who is married to Mingmei. You actually use me to pay off the debt, beast, how can you treat me like this?" I am Shen Ruijiang"
From the former fourth-rank madam to the down-and-out yellow-faced woman, Lu Yang thought it would be worse than this, but she never dreamed that her former lover would push her into the fire pit, and she knew it with her ass. These people will definitely sell her to a brothel, how dare he treat her like this She is his real wife
"Tsk tsk, what kind of people are in this family? It's from a big family. Fortunately, Lord Shen cut off ties with them early on, otherwise I don't know what kind of trouble they will be involved in."
"That's right, it's really not a good thing for anyone who can raise a daughter who crawls into the prince's bed and has a dark womb."
"It deserves it, who let them assassinate the princess again and again, this is called evil will be rewarded with evil"
"Not bad"
In the past, when encountering such a situation, most of the common people would accuse the debt collectors of being ruthless, but now, the onlookers are cursing Shen Ruijiang and his wife. The two Shen Liang brothers are extremely noble and worthy of their respect in their hearts. No one in the common people will sympathize with these people who have tried every means to assassinate them.
"Take it away, see how pretty she is, tidy up a bit, there should be a lot of people in the lower brothel like it, haha"
The leader raised his head and laughed, and a group of people ignored Lu Yang's struggle and dragged her away happily.
"The fourth prince and side concubine arrive"
With a loud shout, the onlookers moved out of the way, and a carriage with the logo of the Fourth Prince's Mansion came slowly, accompanied by several guards of the Fourth Prince's Mansion.
"Hmph, arrogance is nothing but a side concubine, to put it bluntly, a concubine"
"That's right, I don't even think about how I came to the position. In my opinion, the child in her womb is not necessarily the seed of the fourth prince."
"It's not that she can climb into the fourth prince's bed, maybe she can also climb into other people's beds. The poor fourth prince is so gentle and kind, and he has been implicated by his two side concubines."
"Shh, keep your voice down"
Watching the chattering discussions of the common people, there was no sign of fear at all. Shen Jing, who was sitting in the carriage, turned blue and then pale, his handkerchief was almost torn by him, and the maids with her all lowered their heads and kept silent .
"Concubine Shen, we're here."
The forward carriage stopped slowly, and there was a sound of notification from the guards outside. Shen Jing closed his eyes and took a few deep breaths, then smiled and stepped off the carriage with the help of the maid. His beautiful facial features were still amazing , the powdery white clothes revealed a little elegance, and the off-white cloak wrapped her delicate body and covered her protruding belly. The moment Shen Jing appeared, she caught the attention of many people, but
"Xiaojing, you are finally here, save my mother, your father is going to sell me to pay off the debt, woohoo"
Taking advantage of the moment when the person who grabbed him was relaxed, Lu Yang, who was disheveled and disheveled, rushed towards her like crazy. The person who was temporarily amazed by Shen Jing's beauty regained his senses in an instant, and everyone's eyes showed disdain and contempt at the same time.
"Ma'am, please don't do this, the empress is pregnant with a child."
Shen Jing's eyes darkened, but with a smile still on his face, the two accompanying maids immediately stepped forward and pulled away Lu Yang, who was hugging Shen Jing tightly.
"Xiaojing, save me, save me, I'm your mother"
But Lu Yang was already terrified, so he was willing to let go
"Mom, calm down, am I here?"
Helpless, Shen Jing could only comfort her by himself, and managed to coax her to hide behind him. The debt collectors almost came to their senses, and the leader came forward and scanned Shen Jing's figure lustfully, His tongue licked his lips disgustingly, "You are concubine Shen and you came just in time. Your parents owe us 2 taels of silver in total. Do you think you paid it on their behalf, or I will take your mother away? Just treat it as a crime." It's three days' interest."
People who can open a gambling shop in the imperial city, how can they have no power behind their backs? Shen Jing's status as a side concubine may be able to bluff ordinary people, but it is not very effective for these people.
"You are talking nonsense. It is clearly 1000 taels, how could it become 2 taels?"
Shen Ruijiang, who had already heard the movement, rushed out from the inside holding his injured hand. As the side concubine's daughter came, he also gained confidence.
"Hmph, you borrowed 1000 taels, but we are not doing charity. How can we not have any interest? You haven't paid back the money since you borrowed it. With rolling interest, 2 taels is not enough. .”
The leader let out a cold snort, the money from the casino is not so easy to borrow
"you you you"
Shen Ruijiang was trembling with anger, pointing his finger like a chicken paw going crazy.
"Small View"
The couple looked at the drooping daughter at the same time, she was their only hope.
If she could, Shen Jing wished she could turn around and leave, never to see them again, but she couldn't, she came with the fourth prince's order, if she embarrassed him again, even if she was pregnant, the fourth prince might not be able to spare her. After trying hard to suppress the anger in his heart, Shen Jing raised his head, "I don't bring that much money, I will send it to your gambling house later."
After all, she is also the side concubine of the Fourth Prince, so they should give her some face.
"That won't work. They haven't been in debt for a day or two. The noble side concubine has never asked about it. If you don't admit it later, I can still go to the Fourth Prince's Mansion to find you."
But she obviously underestimated these people who dared to look at him with lewd eyes in full view.
"What do you want?"
Shen Jing's complexion sank, and his anger couldn't be suppressed, and the leader said in a ruffian way, "No, the side concubine should send someone back to get the money right away, and our brothers don't mind waiting a little longer, or I will send you away." Mother hand it over, I can allow you three days, but I have to remind the side concubine, after three days it will be more than 2 taels."
"you"
"side concubine"
Shen Jing was furious, and the servant girl at the side hurried forward and reminded her silently that there were still many people around, if she lost her composure, the reputation of the Fourth Prince's Mansion would be even worse, and the fourth master would not be able to spare them by then.
"Small View"
Shen Ruijiang and his wife were deeply afraid that she would let go, they both looked at him expectantly, Shen Jing's hands hidden under the cloak were tight and tight, 2 taels, where would she get so much cash all of a sudden to ask Si Ye to ask him not to cut her alive If the dowry is sold, it will be impossible to get it together for a moment. Besides, without the dowry, how will she survive in the backyard in the future, and how will she give gifts to please the concubine and the nobles in the palace?
"It seems that the side concubine is reluctant to part with the money, come here, and bring Lu Shi to me."
"No"
Seeing that Shen Jing hadn't expressed his opinion for a long time, the leader sternly shouted, scaring Lu Yang to hide behind Shen Jing again, "Xiao Jing, please help me, help my mother, please!"
"stop"
Those people really wanted to do something, Shen Jing couldn't bear it, let out a low growl, and suddenly pointed his finger at one of the following guards, "You, go back and tell Fourth Master, let him send someone to give this concubine 2 taels of silver."
There was really no way out, Shen Jing had no choice but to plot against Qin Yunshen. In this case, even if he didn't want to, he still had to send someone to send money.
"This is"
Looking at those people hesitantly, the guard left after a long while.
"Clap"
"The fourth prince really loves the side concubine, so let us brothers wait a little longer."
The leaders clapped their hands, and sat down cross-legged outside the gate one by one, making it clear that they would not be allowed in unless they got the money, and it was not impossible for them to leave, as long as the fourth prince could afford to lose this person.
"What a side concubine Shen, she actually plotted against the head of the hall."
How could her tricks fool Qin Yunshen?
After learning about his situation, Qin Yunshen understood. Ye Tian beside him also frowned, his eyes were full of displeasure, 2 taels was not a small amount.
"Send it to her."
"Your Highness"
After a while, Qin Yun said in a deep voice, Ye Tian frowned disapprovingly, if there is a first time, there will be a second time and a third time, Shen Jing is not a safe person, and his parents are not so easy No matter how rich the Fourth Prince's Mansion is, they can't let them spend so much.
"Housekeeper, you send it yourself, and we will count his dowry together when she comes back. A side concubine's foreign debts cannot go to the accounts of the palace, and the hall is only temporarily lent to her."
"Yes."
The housekeeper responded and left, Ye Tian couldn't breathe a sigh of relief.
It took about an hour before the housekeeper of the Fourth Prince's Mansion delivered the money to the gate of the small courtyard.
"Master Shen, welcome to come again next time."
Before leaving, those debtors taunted them a bit. Shen Ruijiang's expression turned extremely ugly, but he didn't dare to speak out. He also knew that he had gone too far this time.
"Thank you, butler."
Ignoring his parents, after entering the yard, Shen Jing was in a good mood and thanked the housekeeper, no matter whether the fourth master gave the money due to the situation, at least he gave it, right? This means that he also has her and the child in his heart, If it hadn't been for the old godmother's funeral, she would have rushed back to the fourth prince's mansion immediately.
"The side concubine is being polite. The fourth master said that it is right for the side concubine to pay the imperial palace, but today's 2 taels are foreign debts of the side concubine's family, and they cannot go to the official accounts. From the dowry, 2 taels will be returned to the Prince's Mansion."
"what"
Shen Jing, who was still happy last second, staggered, and stared wide-eyed in disbelief. How could the fourth master treat her like this? Her dowry was not much in the first place. During this period of time, in order to please the concubine mother and manage the people in the palace, it had already been spent Quite a lot, if she allocates another 2 taels, how will she maintain her appearance in the future? No, it's impossible, it's impossible for Fourth Master to treat her like this.
Shen Ruijiang's left hand was broken, Lu Yang was penniless, and the old witch's body was kept at home for three days without being encoffined. Fortunately, it is winter now, otherwise it would be stinky.
