"Master Jia, of course you have the final say. You can pay whatever you want!"
Although Gu Shenghui's face was swollen, his words were not ambiguous at all.
He didn't learn any other skills in the military camp, but he learned quickly when he saw people calling him "brother."
After all, my life is almost gone, can my self-esteem be enough to eat?
Seeing Gu Shenghui being so aggressive, Jia Qing's eyes receded a bit, and she raised her hand to hold his chin, "Master Jia, I am also a responsible person, so naturally I won't ask for more from you. Today's losses will add up."
, thirty thousand taels of silver, how about it?”
Thirty thousand taels?!
Go ahead and grab it!
Return your duty to the people, bah!
"Um?"
Seeing that Gu Shenghui didn't speak for a long time, Jia Qing put a little more force on her hand, narrowed her eyes slightly, and raised her voice.
"Master Jia, what are you talking about? I was just thinking, did you say too little? Thirty thousand taels is not enough. Three hundred thousand taels is almost enough!"
Gu Shenghui scratched his neck and said.
"Okay! Since you said so, let's write a letter."
Jia Qing let go of his hand and winked at the big man behind him.
The big man stepped forward, threw the pen and paper in front of Gu Shenghui, and only untied Gu Shenghui's right hand.
Gu Shenghui glanced at the big man, and gently turned his left wrist from an angle invisible to the two of them. He couldn't break free at all, and he didn't know what method he used to tie the knot.
"You'd better not make any small moves for me, otherwise..."
Jia Qing warned.
"Master Jia, my life is in your hands, how dare I do something small?" Seeing that he couldn't get away, Gu Shenghui stopped trying and just picked up his pen and wrote obediently.
After finishing writing, Gu Shenghui admired it for a while before handing it over to Jia Qing.
Jia Qing took a look and saw that he didn't reveal any information about being kidnapped. He just told him to take the money and go to the designated place.
"I didn't expect you to be good friends with the young master of the Ministry of Civil Affairs. No wonder! The price is three hundred thousand taels."
Jia Qing looked Gu Shenghui up and down, and a dim light flashed in his eyes.
Gu Shenghui just smiled stupidly.
"Okay, since the young master is so cooperative, Daqing, prepare something for the young master to eat. I think the young master must be hungry too."
Jia Qing picked up the letter, stood up, and looked down at Gu Shenghui. Under the flickering firelight, his face looked a bit sinister.
"I just don't know whether this is the meal for the young master to be decapitated or the farewell meal."
For some reason, Gu Shenghui always felt that these two meanings were not very good.
Jia Qing took the big man away, not forgetting to tie Gu Shenghui's hands again before leaving.
Before Gu Shenghui could figure out how to untie the rope, a big man walked in carrying food.
The meal even looked a bit sumptuous.
White rice, vegetables and chicken legs.
Isn't this really a deprivation meal?
Gu Shenghui felt a little panicked.
"eat!"
The big man placed the rice bowl in front of Gu Shenghui and untied his hands.
From morning to now, he has not eaten a bite of food, and he is already very hungry.
Looking at the expressionless man, the aroma of the food lingered on the tip of his nose. Gu Shenghui couldn't help but swallowed, hesitated for a second, then picked up the bowl and started to devour it.
Woohoo, it’s really delicious!
Why are these chicken legs so fragrant?
This green vegetable feels so fresh!
ah!
This rice is actually sweet!
Gu Shenghui was moved to tears.
I even wanted to have another bowl of white rice.
Unfortunately, the big man tied him up again with a puzzled expression and walked out with the shiny bowls and chopsticks.
"well!"
Gu Shenghui moved to the bottom of the small window and looked up at the sky at a 45-degree angle.
Song Chao!
You kid must be smarter!
Gu Shenghui felt the aura of desperadoes from these people, and was afraid that after these people knew that he was the prince, they would not dare to ask for money and would send him on his way.
Among these friends in the capital, Song Chao has the most active mind. I hope he can be more reliable.
He still wants to see the sun tomorrow!
Thinking about it, Gu Shenghui looked at the moon with only a corner showing, his eyes flushed, and he didn't know where Jiu'er was now or whether he had escaped from danger.
A tear silently fell from the corner of Gu Shenghui's eyes.
He will be fifteen soon, and his mother said that she can give him a maid after he turns fifteen.
Woohoo, he hasn't hugged a beautiful girl yet, he doesn't want to die!!!
**
The residence of the Minister of Civil Affairs.
As soon as Song Yigang returned from drinking tea with his colleagues, Song Xueyue was very attentive and served herbal tea.
"...You made a mistake again?"
Song Yi sat on the main seat, and the old man glanced at Song Xueyue, who was standing aside with an extremely flattering smile, and his eyelids drooped.
"Daddy~" Song Xueyue coquettishly stepped forward and hugged Song Yi's arm, almost shaking the tea cup out of Song Yi's hand.
"Stop, stop, stop!"
Song Yi quickly took out his arm, seeing that he was in a good mood today...
"Tell me, what mistake did you make?"
Song Xueyue subconsciously glanced at Li Qin beside her.
Li Qin hurriedly stepped forward with a smile, "Master, Xue Yue has been very good recently. She is learning the rules from her aunt in the house every day."
"Yes, daddy, my daughter saw that you have been working hard recently, so she prepared this herbal tea herself to honor you! How can you be so suspicious of your daughter's good intentions?
My daughter is angry!"
Song Xueyue stamped her feet, turned around, and turned her back to Song Yi, as if the words "I'm angry" were written on her back.
"Seriously?" Song Yi looked at Li Qin.
These days, he is prospering in the court, and it seems that he rarely hears complaints from other colleagues.
Li Qin nodded, "Of course it's true. In order to prepare this herbal tea for you, Xue Yue even burned her fingers."
With that said, Li Qin took a few steps forward, took Song Xueyue's hand, and exposed Song Xueyue's red arm.
Song Yi's expression moved slightly, as if he was a little moved.
I wanted to apologize to Song Xueyue, but I couldn't keep my face off.
Li Qin winked at Song Xueyue.
Song Xueyue immediately understood and turned around and said: "For once, father will not wrong his daughter next time, otherwise the daughter will really ignore her father again."
For the first time, Song Yi experienced the feeling of a caring little cotton-padded jacket on Song Xueyue, and his heart warmed, "Okay, it's daddy's fault, it's daddy's fault, Xueyue, don't be angry."
Song Yi looked around the room, and suddenly felt a sense of emotion about returning home after hard work, with his wife and children. He didn't know what he thought of, and his eyes turned slightly red.
Song Chao looked at the scene of the loving father and son 'laughing' and curled his lips.
What was the herbal tea prepared by oneself, and what was burnt.
He took it from the hand of the maid. Because of his bad temper, he was burned and accidentally spilled the herbal tea. He had to use the herbal tea in Song Yi's room where he spent the night yesterday...
