Chapter 2380 Paying Out of Pocket
But what can he do?
He can't win even if he competes with others.
People simply won't reason with him.
After suppressing his anger for a long time, Lord Tian said in a cold voice: "I cannot make the decision on this matter. I have to pass the message back and ask the emperor to make the decision."
Shao Yunduan: "It's up to you."
The two sides parted unhappily.
Lord Tian asked to meet Tian Shanshan and others again, but Shao Yunduan refused without even thinking about it.
He was not that tolerant and generous. When it came to Qiao Xuan, he had never been a tolerant and generous person.
Tian Shanshan hurt Qiao Xuan, but he did not use all means to torture her. It was already restrained enough for him to just imprison her in a dark prison.
Wouldn't it be better to let her live a few more days like this? Tian Shanshan and her group didn't even know that Master Tian and his group had come, or that they had moved to Jinan City.
Lord Tian was so angry that he almost went crazy. His brain suddenly went crazy and he actually started to beg Qiao Xuan again.
Maybe he thought Qiao Xuan was a woman and would easily be soft-hearted.
Qiao Xuan gave him a strange look and asked, "Master Tian, do you think I would be soft-hearted towards a woman who tried so hard to steal my husband and almost disfigured me?"
Lord Tian was ashamed and angry: "My Shan'er is not that kind of person!"
Qiao Xuan was too lazy to pay attention to him.
Unable to see Tian Shanshan and being forbidden to move around freely while living in the post station, Lord Tian was worried about his daughter and was extremely anxious. He had to write a letter quickly and order someone to send it to the capital at full speed.
The Fourth Prince was successfully angered again!
We seized his city and now they want him to pay compensation. Is this fair?
"This is too much!"
"Traitor! This traitor!"
"I shouldn't have been soft-hearted and raised a tiger to cause trouble!"
Even though the Fourth Prince cursed and vented his anger, he still had to deal with things.
He summoned his trusted ministers to discuss the matter. They all looked at each other in shock: How shameless! How shameless!
However, the princess and the imperial envoy are the face of the emperor and the court, and they must be redeemed.
If the princess had not done such a thing, they could still condemn Shao Yunduan and force him to release the person.
However, the princess led people to kidnap Mrs. Shao and took her all the way to the capital. It was obvious that this was definitely approved by the emperor. But in the end, she was outmaneuvered, and the initiative was no longer in her hands.
The ministers discussed the matter for two days and finally reached a consensus: the maximum amount of silver for the ransom should be 800,000 taels, and no more than one million taels. Lord Tian still needs to be more careful and negotiate well.
One million and eight hundred thousand are not small sums. The Fourth Prince was extremely heartbroken and unwilling to do it.
I couldn't help but secretly blame Tian Shanshan in my heart: Don't take on a job if you don't have the skills.
He originally had no such idea, but Tian Shanshan kept advising him, and he couldn't help but change his mind and dispatched people to accompany her to infiltrate Hangzhou City.
Who knew she was so incompetent, she took the people out of Jiangnan, and yet she was still caught in one fell swoop!
Not only did he lose his city and town, but he also had to pay "compensation"!
This is a huge sum of money.
What the Fourth Prince did not expect was that even with such a huge sum of money, Shao Yunduan and Qiao Xuan still did not agree.
However, Lord Tian did not dare to ask the Fourth Prince for money again. He knew the Emperor's temper very well and it would be difficult to get money again.
Besides, this matter was indeed caused by his daughter, and the emperor must be blaming her in his heart. Even his family might not be able to get any good results... and he still dared to ask for money?
