Chapter 193 A Bad Life
Xie Ting listened to the quarrel in the next room. He picked up his wine glass and gently clinked it against the glass next to Xie Rongying's. He whispered, "Sister, if I had your brain, I would definitely not have suffered the loss last time because of the appearance of the Empress Dowager's people."
Xie Rongying's brows were gloomy, the Empress Dowager's attitude was too obvious.
Because Shangguan Jing was in the hands of King Wei, Emperor Ren De did not take any action, but the Crown Prince continued to persevere in dealing with King Wei.
The Empress Dowager's attitude means that the game with Emperor Ren De has begun.
In the eyes of the Empress Dowager, if she wants to break the current deadlock in Bianliang, she must start with the Xie family.
No matter what Shi Mingyan does this time, whether he wins or loses, it gives the Empress Dowager a chance to deal with the Xie family.
If Shi Mingyan loses or something happens to Xie Rongying, it will mean that the Xie family has secretly detained an official appointed by the imperial court, and the Empress Dowager will not let them go.
If Shi Mingyan wins and kidnaps Xie Rongying as planned to force Xie Jing to hand over Shi Yang and Shi Mingyan, the Empress Dowager will not let them go.
I think the Empress Dowager has also predicted that no matter what the final result is, the Xie family will not be able to escape her control.
It is necessary to start with the Xie family to break the first gap in the deadlock in Bianliang.
The quarrel next door became louder and louder, bringing Xie Rongying back to her senses.
At this time, Cuizhi saw that more and more people were walking in the corridor outside, so she closed the door.
Qin Beiyuan, who was in the private room next door, stared at the people holding Shi Mingyan down. "You guys are just seeing how different my big brother is now, so you dare to come to me so brazenly, right?!"
The man holding Shi Mingyan down sneered and pointed at Qin Beiyuan, "You also said that times have changed. So, even if your Yongyi Marquisate is at its peak, you don't have to pay back the money you owe me?"
"Why waste your time talking to him!" The tall and strong man picked up Qin Beiyuan and threw him to the ground. "I've been watching you for a long time. I said you live in poverty and have no money to pay us back, but you can still spend money like water with others. I think you are living a good life!"
At this moment, Shi Mingyan looked at the group of ferocious people in the room and shouted, "How much silver does Mr. Qin San owe you?"
"Not much, not much. Over the years, the silver he took from our bank and casino is only about 30,000 taels. The rest is fine. After all, we have to consider the face of Marquis Yongyi." The tall and strong man stared at Shi Mingyan: "Why, do you want to pay back the silver for Qin Fengyuan?"
When Shi Mingyan heard about thirty thousand taels of silver, his expression changed slightly. He approached Qin Fengyuan in order to get his hands on the Yongyi Marquis Mansion. He had already spent a lot of money on Qin Beiyuan recently. How could he possibly pay back the money for Qin Beiyuan?
His face was slightly stiff. "This matter has nothing to do with me. If you want to find Mr. Qin San, go find Mr. Qin San. I have something else to do, so I'll leave first."
Shi Mingyan tried to stay away from the people in the money houses and casinos in Bian Jing as much as possible.
When these people go crazy, they don't care about anyone's identity at all.
It's just a life anyway, so take it if you want it.
But Shi Mingyan cherished his life and did not want to get too involved with Qin Beiyuan. As he spoke, he pulled away the hands that were holding him down and said, "Master Qin San, I'm leaving first."
Shi Mingyan had just stood up when he was pushed back again. Qin Beiyuan's face became more and more ugly.
"Want to leave?" The man holding Shi Mingyan down looked at the tall and strong man. "Fourth Brother, didn't someone say that the eldest son of the Shi family gave Qin Beiyuan a lot of goodies recently? That mere 30,000 taels of silver shouldn't be a big deal for the eldest son of the Shi family."
"What do you want to do? You want me to pay him back. Why should I pay him back?" Shi Mingyan pushed away the person holding him down, his expression cold: "Every wrong has its perpetrator, and the debt has its creditor. Whoever owes you the money is there, and it's not me!"
Shi Mingyan pointed at Qin Beiyuan while speaking.
How could this group of people let Shi Mingyan leave?
The reason they came here today was because of Shi Mingyan.
After all, they also knew that Qin Beiyuan really had no money, so he took it out before he could.
Of course, it is not ruled out that Qin Fengyuan has the money but wants to pay for it through the public account of the Yongyi Marquis' Mansion and chooses to default on the debt.
Anyway, they didn't get the silver, and Qin Beiyuan lived a carefree life all day long. It was hard to get rid of the hatred in their hearts if they didn't get rid of it.
"Stop pretending!" The tall and strong Fourth Brother walked up to Shi Mingyan and said, "You don't look like someone who would indulge in debauchery with Qin Beiyuan. How did you end up with him? Could it be that Qin Beiyuan has something that Master Shi wants?"
Shi Mingyan's expression became increasingly serious. Just as he was about to speak, the fourth brother looked at Qin Beiyuan and spoke first: "How about this? You lend Qin Beiyuan thirty thousand taels of silver, sign and seal it, and after you give us the silver, we will release you."
Qin Beiyuan's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he immediately got up from the ground: "Young Master, please lend me the money first so I can send these people away. I beg you."
Shi Mingyan looked at Qin Beiyuan with disgust in his eyes. "Third Master, I really can't help you with this matter. I don't have that much money."
After saying that, Shi Mingyan was about to walk outside.
But he was stopped by someone.
Seeing this, Shi Mingyan turned around and stared coldly at the fourth brother and the man who had just held him down: "What are you going to do? Are you going to force me to lend him the money so that he can pay you back?"
"Master, your Shi family's business is so big, please lend me some money first." Qin Beiyuan walked up to Qin Shiyuan and said, "You were asking about Xie Rongying before because the Xie family has stopped doing business with the Shi family recently. Please lend me some money first, and I will find a way to reconcile the Xie family and your Shi family."
Qin Beiyuan was afraid that Shi Mingyan wouldn't believe him, so he added, "You must have asked about Xie Rongying and know that she has a say in the Xie family. Now Xie Rongying is also a member of my Qin family. I am her elder. I will go and talk to her so that you can sit down and have a proper discussion about business matters."
Shi Mingyan stared at Qin Beiyuan coldly. He had recently learned about the people around Xie Rongying from Qin Beiyuan and his wife. Today he was going to sit down with Qin Beiyuan to have a farewell dinner.
I didn't expect to encounter such an unlucky thing.
"Third Master, I don't have any money to lend you." Shi Mingyan said in a deep voice, "I can't do anything about this matter."
After saying that, Shi Mingyan walked towards the door. Qin Beiyuan's face turned pale. How could he not know that if he could not pay back the money today, he would definitely be tortured if he fell into the hands of this group of people.
He stepped forward and grabbed Shi Mingyan's arm: "Master, I know you have money, please lend it to me. If I can't pay it back today, they will kill me."
"Third Master, you belong to the Yongyi Marquis's Mansion. They won't have the guts to attack you." Shi Mingyan reached out to push Qin Beiyuan away, but Qin Beiyuan's grip on his arm was too strong, and he couldn't move at all. "Third Master, let go!"
Qin Beiyuan, however, acted like a rogue who would not let go unless you lend him money today, and he clung to Shi Mingyan's arm tightly.
He kept repeating, "Master, please lend me the money, please, please!"
Shi Mingyan's expression became increasingly grim, and he pushed Qin Beiyuan hard.
Seeing this, the fourth brother shouted, "What are you standing there for? Separate them. No one can leave without paying the silver today!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the four or five men who were blocking the door rushed forward, grabbing Qin Beiyuan and Shi Mingyan and pulling them to the sides. However, Qin Beiyuan held Shi Mingyan's arm tightly as if it were a life-saving straw. Shi Mingyan even felt the pain in his arm.
The people surrounding the two tried to pull them apart several times but to no avail, and finally it turned into pushing and shoving, and the scene began to become chaotic.
Qin Beiyuan's voice kept repeating, and more and more people gathered at the door to watch the show. Qin Beiyuan's behavior was really embarrassing.
Shi Mingyan's face became more and more ugly. Thinking about how embarrassed he was today because of Qin Beiyuan, he angrily broke Qin Beiyuan's fingers and kicked Qin Beiyuan's lower body fiercely.
Qin Beiyuan felt so much pain that the people who were pulling him fell to the ground.
Seeing this, Shi Mingyan coldly waved away the person grabbing him. He smoothed his robe and turned to walk towards the gate when he heard someone exclaim, "Fourth Brother, what's wrong with Qin Beiyuan?"
