Chapter 463 I can pay silver to atone my sins!

For the first time, Liu Nanshi felt that Xiao Qingyuan was not without any good points. At least, he really loved her and knew how to care for her.

Moreover, if he does not have concubines after marriage, he will be much better than other men in the capital!

She bit her lip and said, "What's there to hesitate about? Just get married!"

Anyway, this was the only path she could choose, to marry Xiao Qingyuan and become the Crown Prince's consort. The child she gave birth to would at least be a descendant of the royal family, which was much better than being hastily married off to a distant place by her parents.

"Xiao Qingyuan, then I will wait for you to divorce your wife and marry me!"

Xiao Qingyuan was immediately delighted: "Nanshi, you agreed to marry me? That's great!"

"Don't be too happy too soon. I promised to marry you, but it has conditions!"

"No matter what your conditions are, I will obey you!"

"First, in addition to divorcing your wife, you must also send away all the maids in your room. I will decide who will serve you in the future."

"no problem!"

"Second, no matter what happens in the future, you must stand by me unconditionally. Even if I argue with your mother, you must stand by me!"

"You don't have to tell me, I can do it!"

"Third, the palace belongs to us. Don't let Qingxi go back casually in the future. Since she is already married, she should live in her husband's house. It's outrageous for her to always go back to her parents' house."

"You're right, I'll do as you say!"

"The fourth and most important thing is that you have to help me find the person who drugged me. I want to take care of him myself! I must avenge this!"

Xiao Qingyuan hesitated for a moment: "This..."

"What, you don't want to?"

"No, no, no, I am willing to do anything for you. Just wait, I will check this matter right away."

Xiao Qingyuan reluctantly let go of Liu Nanshi, coaxed her for a while, and then left.

Wenbo Mansion.

Yuan Zheng was beaten so badly that his skin was torn and he was in excruciating pain.

He screamed and begged for mercy: "Gu Qianhan, I was wrong, I really know I was wrong, please stop hitting me! If you beat me to death, you will also go to jail!"

Gu Qianhan held the whip in his hand and said in a cold voice: "Threatening me? Then hit me twenty more times!"

"Stop, stop, stop hitting me! How dare I threaten you? I'm just reminding you that I have only one worthless life. It doesn't matter if you kill me, but it won't be worth it if you get yourself involved!"

Being hit by a whip is not actually fatal, but it is extremely painful. It penetrates deep into the skin, flesh and bone marrow, and the pain is endless. Yuan Zheng was on the verge of collapse several times and wished he could faint.

But Gu Qianhan controlled the strength well and only beat him so hard that his body was covered with bruises, but he never made him unconscious.

Seeing Gu Qianhan raising the bramble again, Yuan Zheng was frightened and said hurriedly: "I can pay silver to atone for my sins! I have money, a lot of money, you know!"

Gu Qianhan stepped on Yuan Zheng's hand and swept Yuan Zheng's face with the whip. "How much money do you plan to pay?"

"One hundred thousand taels!"

"You almost forced me to have sex with Liu Nanshi in the palace, and you want to let it go by paying me 100,000 taels?"

"Didn't you fail to succeed with Liu Nanshi? Didn't Xiao Qingyuan take your place? What's more, you've already beaten me up and vented your anger!"

"I haven't vented enough anger yet. I want to fight again. Anyway, I don't need these 100,000 taels. I'm not Xiao Qingyuan, who lives in poverty and doesn't need silver so much."

"Then...then two hundred thousand taels!"

"Lie down, I'm going to continue beating you. If you struggle, I'll hit you in the face. We're brothers, so I'm still thinking about you."

As Gu Qianhan spoke, he pulled the whip out easily.

Yuan Zheng screamed again, and he suddenly raised the amount of silver: "Five hundred thousand taels! Gu Qianhan, I'll give you five hundred thousand taels! This amount is definitely not small, please stop fighting!"

"I have suffered great damage both physically and mentally. Five hundred thousand taels is not enough to make up for the trauma I have suffered."

Yuan Zheng cursed Gu Qianhan hundreds of times in his heart. How could he look like he was hurt at all? He was clearly doing fine!

He was simply asking for too much, trying to extort a large sum of money from him!

However, Yuan Zheng had to take this loss. He asked in grief and anger: "Can you give me a straight answer? Don't make me guess. Just tell me, how much do you want?"

Gu Qianhan said indifferently: "Since you are so reasonable, I am not a hard-talking person, just give me one million taels first!"

"what?!"

Yuan Zheng's eyes almost popped out of his head. "One million taels? Gu Qianhan, are you trying to drain my family's fortune? Do you know how long it takes to earn one million taels? You have to start from my great-grandfather's generation!"

Gu Qianhan sneered: "You may be able to fool an idiot like Xiao Qingyuan with this, but you are too stupid to fool me!"

"Your grandfather was the richest man in Jiangnan, with countless properties. When your mother married into the family, she was a real bridesmaid, with enough gold, silver and jewelry for you to squander for several lifetimes. The number of shops and farms she brought as a dowry was even more numerous. Even Qingyun Building was part of her dowry. Do you think I didn't check?"

"One million taels may seem like an astronomical sum to others, but to you, it's just a drop in the bucket!"

Yuan Zheng almost vomited blood after hearing this: "What do you mean a drop in the bucket? That's one million taels, not ten thousand taels! I don't have that much silver at all. Five hundred thousand taels is already my limit, and it can't all be cash!"

Gu Qianhan said calmly: "It doesn't have to be all cash, you can use other things as collateral. Anyway, I want one million taels. If you are ten thousand taels less, I will spank you. If you can take the beating, you don't have to spend money. Choose!"

As he spoke, he raised the bramble again.

"Wait a moment!"

Yuan Zheng was afraid that he would hit him again, so he hurriedly said, "I can try to get close to him!"

Gu Qianhan nodded: "You are smart. Bring me 500,000 taels first! I'll give you seven days to get the remaining 500,000 taels. If you can't get it together, I have plenty of brambles!"

"How can I have so much cash? I'll give you 200,000 taels first, and you can use my shop and farm to pay for the rest!"

"Show me the title deed first. I don't want it if the location is too bad."

Yuan Zheng was furious, but he still picked it up!

If I had known this would happen, why would I have drugged him and offended him?

But he clearly gave the drug without anyone noticing, so how did Gu Qianhan find out it was him?

Yuan Zheng was puzzled while asking someone to get the silver and the land deed.

Soon, five hundred thousand taels were given out.

Yuan Zheng felt a little painful, but he comforted himself that he could earn money again if he lost it. Anyway, he inherited his grandfather's talent for business and was good at making money.

It won’t take him long to earn back five hundred thousand taels.

This time, just consider it as spending money to ward off disaster.

Gu Qianhan was quite satisfied. He put the banknotes and the land deeds in his arms. Just as he was about to leave, he ran into Xiao Qingyuan who walked into the house.

Yuan Zheng's pupils shrank and he quickly crawled under the bed.

One demon hasn't left yet, and another one comes. He's finished this time!
