Chapter 348: Another 500,000 taels



Anquan shrieked, "Why don't you go and answer it?"

Zhao Chenhan had no choice but to ask Feng Siyuan to come forward and lend 500,000 taels of silver to Anquan, just like last time, with an interest of 100,000 taels, to be repaid within a month.

Looking at the thick stack of banknotes given to Anquan, Zhao Chenhan's heart was bleeding.

Even if all the people he brought died, he was unwilling to give so much silver.

You can recruit new people after they die, but once you lose your money, it’s gone forever.

But there is no way, this is Zhao Lin's territory.

Zhao Chenhan hated Zhao Mingya to death.

If he hadn't stayed here for her, Zhao Lin wouldn't have seized the opportunity.

Although the problem ultimately lies with Zhao Chenhan.

But he will never admit his mistakes.

"Can we go now?" Zhao Chenhan asked with a gloomy face.

"Please come in, Prince Zhao." Anquan smiled so hard that his teeth were showing.

Just as Zhao Chenhan and Zhao Mingya turned around, Anquan asked Zhao Lin, "Give Lord Zhao some?"

Zhao Lin laughed and said, "This is all my father-in-law's money, how can I share it?"

Anquan was polite for a moment, and seeing that Zhao Lin was indeed sensible, he smiled and said, "This is not our money, it belongs to His Majesty. We must give him every penny to take back."

Zhao Lin nodded in agreement.

Zhao Chenhan gritted his teeth as he left the governor's office, angrily saying, "Brother, you don't care about our relationship at all."

Zhao Mingya said, "I've told you long ago that he no longer considers himself a member of the Marquisate, but mother and sisters won't listen. Wait until I get back to tell you how I'll complain."

Zhao Chenhan took a deep breath and said, "That being said, I still have to speak up for Big Brother and put all the blame on Anquan, otherwise Mother will be even angrier."

Zhao Mingya said angrily, "You are just too soft-hearted."

"Hmph, a mere eunuch dares to humiliate my Zhenbei Marquis Mansion. He must be killed." Zhao Chenhan said.

Zhao Mingya nodded and said, "Yes, forget about Zhu Zhongyan. Security is nothing. He's just a dog running errands."

Zhao Chenhan said: "Kill An Ping first, and then kill Zhu Zhongyan after the eldest sister ascends the throne."

Zhao Mingya nodded repeatedly.

At this time, a carriage passed by them and stopped in front of the governor's office. Then a woman got out and followed the doorman in.

"It's Jingshu who is beside the eldest princess."

Zhao Chenhan recognized Jingshu's identity at a glance and asked, "What is she doing here?"

Zhao Mingya asked, "Didn't they say the princess is interested in Zhao Lin? Could it be true?"

Zhao Chenhan clenched his fists.

These people are really blind. They don't want to curry favor with the prince of a marquisate, but instead fall for a bastard who crawled out of a beggar's den.

Soon, several servants came out of the governor's office and unloaded a lot of gifts from the carriage.

"It seems that the eldest princess knew that Zhao Lin became the governor, so she sent gifts to congratulate him." Zhao Mingya said.

"Li Weibai, just wait. When Prince Yu ascends the throne, I will ask him to reward you to me. I will kill you!" Zhao Chenhan swore in his heart.

"Let's go! Back to Beijing!" Zhao Chenhan turned his horse around.

The two men left Mingzhou City and were stopped just thirty miles away.

"Prince Zhao, Miss Zhao, please stay."

The person who came was wearing a conical hat, so his face could not be seen clearly.

Zhao Chenhan snorted coldly, "Get out of the way, you cunning fellow."

The visitor said, "I have something to discuss with Prince Zhao. If Prince Zhao leaves like this, he will definitely regret it."

"This prince will not talk to shameful people." Zhao Chenhan said.

The visitor sighed and said, "There are many people here, and there are many eyes. Your Highness, please excuse me for a moment. I will admit my identity."

"Don't go, it's dangerous." Zhao Mingya said hurriedly.

Zhao Chenhan said, "It's okay. I want to see who dares to kill the prince of Zhenbei Marquis Mansion in broad daylight."

The visitor smiled and said, "Don't worry, Miss Zhao Wu. I'm here to cooperate with the prince and I have no ill intentions towards him."

"That's the best." Zhao Mingya said with a stern face, "If anything happens to Chen Han, no matter who you are, your entire family will be wiped out."

The visitor was secretly shocked. It was said that everyone in the Zhenbei Marquis Mansion doted on their adopted son Zhao Chenhan. He didn't believe it before, but today he saw that it was indeed true.

Zhao Chenhan jumped off his horse and walked to a secluded place with the man, and Zhao Chenhan's men surrounded them.

Zhao Chenhan said: "Take off your hat."

The other party took off his hat, and Zhao Chenhan was surprised: "Master Feng? Why is it you? That's right, it should be you."

The person who came turned out to be Feng Siyuan.

Feng Siyuan smiled bitterly and said, "It seems that the prince has figured it out."

Zhao Chenhan sneered, "Your position as governor was removed and replaced by a provincial governor. Although it's second only to the governor, it's still a demotion. You must be dissatisfied and want to cooperate with this prince."

Feng Siyuan said, "Your Excellency is wise. This is exactly what I meant."

Feng Siyuan said angrily, "As a governor, I can't say I work day and night, but I've been diligent and have never made any mistakes. Yet, I've been demoted. I refuse to accept this."

Zhao Chenhan asked, "Do you know why you were demoted?"

"Why?" Feng Siyuan looked at Zhao Chenhan expectantly.

This was what puzzled him.

If you do something wrong, you will definitely be reprimanded by those above you, or at least be asked to give an explanation.

But he was demoted to the governor for no reason at all, without even a reason, which was why he went to find Zhao Chenhan.

Zhao Chenhan said, "The silver Zhao Lin gave us last time when he rescued us was divided among his five hundred thousand taels and given to His Majesty."

"Just for this?" Feng Siyuan widened his eyes and said in disbelief.

"Of course it's more than that. If it was just silver, His Majesty wouldn't have reprimanded you. It's just that Zhu Zhongyan is stirring up trouble, saying that Zhao Lin should have given His Majesty more silver, but you snatched it away, so His Majesty can only give His Majesty 500,000 taels."
