Favoring the concubine and ignoring the wife? The mistress is reborn and marries the villain in the

Chapter 100

Lord Wang looked at Lord Shen with a half-smile: "Lord Shen, what do you mean? Should we wait here to get the silver or..."

I don’t think the words that were not said afterwards were good to hear.

Lord Shen bowed to Lord Wang and said, "Lord Wang, please allow me to have a few words with my brother-in-law in private."

Lord Wang also politely returned the greeting: "Lord Shen, please make yourself at your own convenience."

Lord Shen dragged the eldest brother of the Li family to the side room. The eldest brother of the Li family looked angry and said, "Lord, our Li family doesn't have the money now."

"Lord Shen, your mansion has so many guards. You said the silver disappeared after being left in your mansion overnight, and you didn't report it to the police or anything. Are you kidding me?"

The eldest brother of the Li family was convinced that Lord Shen and his son came to their house on purpose to extort money, and he was very dissatisfied.

Their shop also needs liquid money, and it is not easy to make money nowadays. Why does Lord Shen say that the Li family owes their family?
"Brother-in-law, I know you won't believe me if I tell you this. Our mansion is just in trouble temporarily, and it won't be like this forever. Why are you being so aggressive, brother-in-law?"

"I am borrowing money from my elder brother-in-law, not asking for it back. I will pay it back when my mansion recovers."

Lord Shen was a little impatient: "Brother-in-law, no matter what, Li and I have been husband and wife for many years. You can't just watch her suffer in this situation now, right?"

The eldest brother of the Li family couldn't help but feel heartbroken when he thought of his sister's crooked mouth and drooling appearance just now, but he was unwilling to pay money again today: "Lord Shen, my sister married you, and it is not her family's responsibility if she is not doing well. Even if people outside want to laugh at her, it is the Marquis' Mansion that will laugh at her."

Lord Shen couldn't help but get a little angry when he saw the eldest brother of the Li family was so stubborn, "Brother-in-law, are you unwilling to lend me the money?"

The eldest brother of the Li family spread his hands and said, "Lord Shen, it's not that I don't want to lend you money, it's just that I don't have any money to lend to you. Lord Shen, please think of another way."

Lord Shen had an angry look on his face: "Okay, if that's the case, then don't blame me for being ruthless. Now our mansion is facing debt collection from the Taifu Mansion. Li is sick now, so she should stay at the Li family to recuperate."

This means to send Li back to her parents' home directly.

At this time, people would feel more sad about being sent back to their parents' home by their husband's family than if they had died.

The eldest brother of the Li family was so angry that he clenched his fists and wanted to punch Lord Shen in the face, but he was just a commoner and a lowly merchant, so he couldn't do it.

"Don't worry, Lord Shen. Although our Li family doesn't have much ability, it is no problem to provide food for the aunt at home."

The eldest brother of the Li family walked out after he finished speaking. Lord Shen came out with a gloomy face. Lord Wang stretched out his hand to Lord Shen: "Lord Shen, may I ask..."

Lord Shen begged Lord Wang humbly, "Lord Wang, please give me a few more days, I will raise the money right away."

When Lord Wang heard that this meant he would not get the silver, he immediately became furious.

"Lord Shen, you are going too far!"

Lord Wang left in a huff. Lord Shen collapsed on the ground. Shen Ling stepped forward to support him. "Father, what should we do now?"

Shen Ling had just sent people back to the Marquis' Mansion to inquire. Someone from the Grand Tutor's Mansion went to the Marquis' Mansion and heard that they had come to the Li family, so they went directly to the Li family to collect the debt.

Lord Shen looked distressed and said, "Ling'er, we have no other options now. We can only wait for the Saint's decision."

"Let's go."

Lord Shen bowed to the two elders of the Li family and said, "Father-in-law, mother-in-law, it is Tiancheng who is incompetent. From now on, please ask the Li family to take care of Madam. Tiancheng will take his leave."

Mr. Li and Mrs. Li wanted to say something, but looking at their eldest son with a gloomy face, they were speechless.

The Wang family had already reported the case to the authorities, but Jingzhao Prefecture did not dare to accept it, so Wang Taifu went directly to see the emperor. The emperor had also heard a lot about the absurd things that happened in the Marquisate recently, and ordered the Zhenbei Marquisate to return the betrothal gift to Taifu. If they could not pay it back, then the Marquisate would be used to pay off the debt.

Shen Tiancheng and Shen Ling knelt on the ground to receive the imperial edict. Shen Ling suddenly turned around and knelt down towards Gu Nianchu: "Madam, please save the whole family!"

Gu Nianchu stood up from the ground and patted the hem of her skirt behind her: "Madam Tian, ​​tell someone to count my dowry. We will move out today."

It was as if he didn't hear what Shen Ling said.

"Yes, Miss."

Nanny Tian responded simply and immediately went back to Begonia Garden to pack up her things.

Lord Shen pulled Shen Ling up from the ground and said, "Ling'er, if we can't come up with the 200,000 silver coins, our Zhenbei Marquisate will be gone."

Lord Shen stared at Shen Ling: "Ling'er, do you have any other ideas?"

Shen Ling shook his head: "Father, you saw it too. I knelt down to Gu, but she was completely indifferent."

"No, there is another place."

Lord Shen stared at Shen Ling: "Have you forgotten which family is behind your concubine?"

Shen Ling was shocked: "Father, you mean..."

Lord Shen sighed and said, "There is no other way now. We can only take the risk."

Shen Ling went out in disguise.

Gu Nianchu was watching the servants packing up in Haitang Garden when Han Chan came to report with a smile, "Miss, it looks like the prince has found the silver. Do we still need to move?"

Gu Nianchu nodded: "Move, of course we should move, such a good opportunity. Besides, what if the prince finds the silver? He has to return the banknote to the Grand Tutor to settle the matter."

Han Chan's eyes sparkled: "Miss, you mean..."

Gu Nianchu nodded: "Well, Master Shen's luck is not very good now. Once this thing touches Master Shen, it will disappear without a trace."

Han Chan turned around and left with his men.

Shen Ling got two hundred thousand taels of silver notes from the Liu family and hurried to the Grand Tutor's Mansion cautiously. He had to return the silver notes to the Grand Tutor as soon as possible.

A group of men in black stopped Shen Ling and said, "Prince Shen, can you lend me some money?"

In broad daylight, they were not afraid of the government coming to arrest them. They just went forward wearing black clothes and masks to snatch the banknotes.

Shen Ling also brought eight guards with him when he went out, but in the eyes of these men in black, these eight guards were no more than clay figures and could not withstand any attack at all.

Shen Ling's banknotes were easily snatched away.

Before leaving, the man in black said to Shen Ling, "Master Shen, why are you doing this? No matter how hard you try, you're still a poor bastard. You might as well accept your fate and go begging."

Shen Ling was knocked to the ground and couldn't move, his screams echoing through the sky.

The people from Jingzhao Prefecture arrived soon. Song Tixing and his men glanced at Shen Ling and frowned slightly: "My Lord, why is it you?"
