Chapter 8: Arrogance, Calculation and Counter-Calculation 3



Baili Feiyue didn't bother to pay attention to them, "Qian Jue, bring me a chair."

The woman in white who acted as her coachman moved the chair out neatly and efficiently.

Baili Feiyue doesn't care what others think, and has no idea how to entertain guests.

He sat leisurely on the chair, playing with his nails nonchalantly.

"You only have two hours in the morning to bid, so hurry up."

Someone started to make a fuss, "Your true colors have been exposed! You've been pretending just for the money!"

Others don't think so.

There are many common people, but where is this? This is the capital!

The officials are just as wealthy and powerful!

Some people who previously felt pity for Ling Yanran now secretly regard her as a strong competitor.

The requirements for looking at women and looking at competitors are completely different!

They quickly analyzed the pros and cons. The General's Mansion was extremely expensive. Not only the General's Mansion, but also the relatives of the high officials in it were powerful. But their money was inconvenient to use!

The rank of an official, his salary, and rewards are all made public!

Even if they are corrupt and have mountains of gold and silver, who would dare to bring it out under the noses of so many people?

In the past, getting a number plate depended on luck, but this time it depends on strength, so of course I have to fight for it!

Thinking of this, someone raised his hand, "I'll give one thousand taels!"

If there is one, there will be two.

The bidding sounds came one after another.

Soon the price reached a high of one hundred thousand taels!

One hundred thousand taels!

No one dared to speak for a while, and Ling Yanran and her group did not speak during this period.

It is said that 100,000 taels can cure everything except life! At this time, they did not think about whether it was worth it or not. They also did not doubt whether this miracle doctor had such great ability.

Baili Feiyue raised her eyebrows and looked at Shangguan Xun, "Master Shangguan, what about you? Don't say I didn't give you a chance. Of course, what I said to Miss Ling Wu before also counts. Let Miss Ling Wu sleep with my servant. Or..." She half-closed her eyes lazily, "Master Shangguan, let me sleep with you for one night..."

Shangguan Xun's heart suddenly sank.

What a pair of eyes!

Her eyes were like water, but with a hint of coldness, as if they could see through everything, yet they were charming and seductive. There was also a hint of lazy evil and playfulness.

It's so ordinary.

But with just a light glance, his heart seemed to be torn out, and he could only feel his heart beating up and down with the movement of his eyes.

"Brother Xun!"

Shangguan Xun felt a chill down his spine and turned his gaze away.

Not to mention that he had just been insulted by this person as a prostitute.

But...

This person... has a problem.

This person must have had some grudge against the Shangguan Mansion or the Ling Mansion. The other party did not seem to deliberately conceal this.

Not only that... this person is also very scary... He couldn't tell exactly what was scary about him, but...

Ling Yanran bit her lip, "Divine Doctor, it's fine if you insult me. But how can you insult Brother Xun like this? He is a man, how can he..." She seemed to have difficulty saying the next words.

"I have no interest in insulting you or him. Miss Ling Wu, if you want to bid, then bid. If not, please leave."

At this moment, someone else shouted, "One hundred and ten thousand taels!"

"One hundred and twenty thousand ryo!"

"150,000 ryo!"

"sixteen……"

"Two hundred thousand taels." Ling Yanran bit her lip and said.

We can't keep talking about this, we have to cut the Gordian knot.

My mother's illness can't wait. Most importantly, there's something wrong with the way Brother Xun looks at the man in front of him!

Just as she expected.

The price of two hundred thousand for two days was announced, and no one dared to bid anymore.

"Tsk tsk, it turns out that being a general is such a lucrative position. You can easily pay a sky-high price of two hundred thousand taels for medical treatment." Baili Feiyue looked at her with interest.

Ling Yanran hid the expression in her eyes, "No, it's not the miracle doctor, you misunderstood."

She lowered her head with some sadness, "This money was originally the dowry of a concubine in our house. Five years ago, that concubine died unexpectedly. She had no children or other relatives left behind. So..." She had tears in her eyes, "If mother hadn't been so sick now, we would never have touched the dowry of this concubine."

The bitch Ling Jing is dead, and only my mother knows the whereabouts of Zhen Mi.

This sum of money was given to Zhen Mi perfectly.

The blame must also be put on Zhen Mi, because Zhen Mi is the only one whose origins remain a mystery in the mansion, and others will not be able to find out anything even if they try to investigate.

Unexpected.

"Oh, it turns out that I misunderstood the general. Come to think of it, the head of the Ling Mansion is now seriously ill, and the concubine's dowry has to be used. You can imagine how noble and upright General Ling is. But it is also a coincidence that I happen to know a young lady in your general's mansion, and that young lady is also the concubine's daughter. I wonder which concubine is Miss Ling Wu referring to?"

Ling Yanran's hair stood on end.

No way, could this person be cheating her?

Which of the aunts and sisters in the general's mansion is not under the control of this mother and daughter?

There is no way that they, mother and daughter, could know the miracle doctor in front of them without knowing it!

With confidence, he said softly, "The doctor may have made a mistake. The aunt I'm talking about was named Zhen. She died five years ago due to excessive grief over the loss of her beloved daughter. She is definitely not the one the doctor knows."

He will not let go of it even when it is alive, and will make use of it to the fullest even after it is dead.

Baili Feiyue laughed with an ambiguous meaning, and leisurely took out a unique hairpin. In the moment of Ling Yanran's fleeting fear, she said lightly, "Are you mistaken? This lady's name is 'Jing', and she is the third child."

As soon as he saw the hairpin, Shangguan Xun beside him trembled.

Without even looking at him, Baili Feiyue played with her hairpin, "Five years ago, I passed by the mass grave outside the city..."

"Third sister, is this really the third sister?"

Before she could finish, the delicate Ling Yanran suddenly went crazy, regardless of the difference between men and women, and grabbed Baili Feiyue's robe and interrupted her, "Divine Doctor, where is that person? Is she still alive? Please tell me, where is that person!"

"She's on her way to Kyoto. I think she'll be there in two or three days."

Upon hearing this, Ling Yanran covered her face and slowly fell to the ground, crying bitterly.

“That’s great… That’s great…”

That bitch Ling Jing is not dead! !

She is not dead!

No, she couldn't let this news make her lose her mind. She had to think of a way. She didn't know how much the person in front of her knew. Anyway, she couldn't let this person say more about Ling Jing, that bitch!

Just at this moment.

"Doctor Yue."

A cold voice without any emotion suddenly sounded.

Baili Feiyue looked up and saw the three people on the black horses. They were all wearing black brocade robes with strange lotus flowers embroidered with golden red thread on the front and back of their clothes. Because the three of them had pale faces, it made them look even more weird as they all looked exactly the same.

The people around were already startled when these three people appeared, but they pretended to remain calm and quietly moved away.
