How much money can a chief official in a royal palace have?
The man snorted coldly, "It's said that you officials are full of tricks. How can you, a eunuch, compare to, compare to...?"
The man almost blurted out the man's name, and he breathed a sigh of relief.
What a fool! Song Yushu smiled and said, "Of course, I have evidence. You will believe it after reading it. That person has a big background, but he has many ways to spend money. I am different."
"What evidence?" The man took a step forward doubtfully. It was not his fault that he was greedy for money. It was really because they were so short of money, otherwise they would not do this kind of business.
Song Yushu raised his head and motioned the man to look at Nie Yiyue, "First, knock out this person who is listening to us with his ears perked up."
"Aren't you together? Isn't she your master?" The man turned his head and glanced at Nie Yiyue who was staring at them with wide eyes.
"You're not considered the master before you even enter the palace." Song Yushu shrugged nonchalantly. "I'm still the eldest in the palace."
What he said made a lot of sense. The man walked over without hesitation and made Nie Yiyue faint in just one move.
"What?"
Song Yushu lifted his leg and said, "There is a cloth bag tied to my calf, and there are three thousand taels of silver in the bag."
The man's eyes widened in disbelief. Which normal person would have so much money? He doubtfully lifted up Song Yushu's shirt with a wooden stick, and there was indeed a bulge on his exposed calf.
But the man was very cautious and didn't take it himself. After thinking about it, he actually untied the rope on Song Yushu's hand and said, "Take it out."
Song Yushu very attentively untied the cloth bag tied to his calf, took out ten silver bills from it and handed them to the man.
This action was like giving someone a copper coin, which deeply hurt his heart. He snatched the banknote from Song Yushu's hand and looked at it carefully. "Tell me how much you have embezzled! It's because of people like you that we can't eat enough and wear warm clothes!"
"Hey, brother, that's wrong," Song Yushu explained in a gentle voice, "This money is all earned honestly. How about we cooperate? I promise to pay you more, not less."
The man clutched the money and muttered, "Our boss is a man of his word. He won't agree to this."
"Brother, it's not worth it for such a small amount of money. I bet that the money you paid this time is not as much as what I will give you now." Song Yushu didn't know Xia Xingde's character yet? He was always greedy and stingy, so he couldn't give much. "Credit should also be kept with people who are trustworthy."
Just as the man was hesitating, a faint sound came from the yard. The man quickly tied Song Yushu's hands, then ran out with the silver bills.
Then there was a vague discussion outside, and after some time, they came into the house.
Song Yushu looked carefully and saw that there were currently five people in the group. The leader was a very tall and thin young man, surrounded by several men and a woman who looked to be in her thirties.
The young man stared at Song Yushu intently, "You are really bold."
"Thank you, thank you. I just want to live, and you just want to live too. Why don't we cooperate?" Song Yushu was not panicked at all, because she had already seen that this group of people was in great need of money.
The kind that is urgently needed.
"In this business, trust is everything. We won't betray our customers." The tall and thin young man looked at Song Yushu gloomily.
Song Yushu sighed softly, "I just told that brother that trust is something you should keep with people who are trustworthy. Do you think I can escape if you capture me? Or do you think that if you kill me, that person will let you stay?"
The tall and thin young man remained silent. That person would indeed do such a thing, but...
"What?! Are you saying that guy wants to kill us?" The man screamed and looked at the tall and thin young man in disbelief.
The woman standing nearby glared at the man and asked, "What are you shouting about?"
"Are we going to end up in a dead end just for three hundred taels?" the man retorted.
"My younger sister is about to give birth. Without the imperial physician in that man's house, do you think we would obey him like this?" The woman shouted angrily. She knew that Song Yushu was watching the fun and was very angry.
Song Yushu took the opportunity to interject, "Doctor Fan? I am not very talented, but I have been taught by Doctor Fan for a while and can be considered his last disciple."
Everyone looked at Song Yushu, and the tall, thin young man even snorted coldly, "You really dare to say anything to survive."
Who was Doctor Fan? He was the former head of the Imperial Hospital, with a very strange temper. It was said that he could even argue with the emperor. How could he teach his medical skills to a eunuch?
"You'll know if you try it." Song Yushu glanced at the young man following behind them. "Did you break your right leg? The weather right now is just right for it. Come, I'll give you an injection and you'll know."
Everyone looked at Song Yushu and then at the young man, and they were very surprised. The young man's leg was broken a long time ago, but according to him it has healed.
Seeing everyone looking at him, the boy pursed his lips and finally told the truth, "It hurts a lot."
"Why didn't you tell me it hurt?!" the tall, thin young man scolded. "You've been living like this for three whole years? And you're still running around with us like this?"
Song Yushu coughed lightly and said, "Let me add that it's only during seasons like this where the temperature difference is so great that it hurts. Normally, it's no different from normal people, but you still need treatment, otherwise your legs will really become useless when you get old."
Finally, after everyone discussed it, they untied Song Yushu's hands and let her give the boy acupuncture.
Song Yushu unhesitatingly pulled out the hairpin from the jade crown on her head, took out the moxibustion needle inside, disinfected it over the fire, and then pierced the boy's leg with lightning speed.
The boy, who had been frowning, looked at his legs in surprise. It really worked!
When the others saw his reaction, they knew that the eunuch was telling the truth. In fact, they had already half believed it since he took out the moxibustion needles.
"Let him treat my younger sister now!" The woman was very excited and wanted to grab Song Yushu.
"No, can his medical skills really surpass Doctor Fan's?" The tall, thin young man still had some doubts, and he didn't dare to take such a risk. "If that person knew he was still alive, we would be in great trouble!"
The man was anxious. "It's obvious he has real talent and money. It's better for us than to have to endure the wrath of those people, right?!"
"But..." The tall and thin young man wanted to speak, but was interrupted by an arrow falling from the sky!
“Whoosh—”
