After Ling Chuchu took the gold, he handed it to the old man and said, "Old man, this gold is worth at least 30 taels of silver, you can use it to pay off the debt."

"This is impossible,"

The old man wanted to take the gold, but hesitated.

"Do you really want to sell your daughter to pay off the debt?" Ling Chuchu said angrily as she stuffed the gold into his hand.

The old man looked at his daughter who was choking and crying, so he could only take the ingot of gold, and bowed again and again to thank him: "Thank you, thank you woman, I can't repay you for your great kindness old man."

Then he handed the gold to shopkeeper Wang and said, "Treasurer Wang, now that I have money, I can pay back the money, and I don't need to use my daughter to pay off the debt."

Ling Chuchu reminded from the side: "Remember to get back ten taels of silver."

"Humph."

Shopkeeper Wang slapped the old man's hand with a slap, and said forcefully, "Hmph, it's too late to pay back the money now. I'm going to order this person today."

"You are so unreasonable, people have already paid you back, what else do you want?" Ling Chuchu was anxious.

Shen Liang also frowned and took a step forward, looked at shopkeeper Wang and said, "Since you each hold your own opinion and cannot argue, then come talk to me in the yamen."

"This……"

Faced with Shen Liang, an official servant, shopkeeper Wang was also a little apprehensive. He didn't want to go to the Yamen, so after thinking about it, he said:

"Well, since we each insist on our own opinions, we might as well depend on God's will."

As he spoke, he took out two chess pieces, one black and one white, and said to the old man:

"As long as you can guess that my hand is a white piece, our debt will be written off. If you guess wrong, your daughter will go with me."

Then, regardless of whether the old man answered or not, shopkeeper Wang put his hands behind his back and hid the two chess pieces in his palms.

But Bao Zheng saw through his tricks at a glance, knowing that he secretly changed the chess pieces, and the two hands were actually holding black pieces.No matter how the old man chooses, he will definitely lose.

Then Bao Zheng stepped forward and easily broke his trick.

This scene happened to be seen by the Baxian King who rushed to Luzhou to solve the case.

After the Baxian King investigated Bao Zheng's details, he found that he was a very clever person, and he was quite optimistic about him, thinking that Bao Zheng might be able to solve the case of the murder of Prince Gaoli.

71 night interview with the virtuous king

Now that the Eight Sage Kings have arrived in Luzhou City, Jiang Yi's plan can also be launched.

That night, he changed into night clothes, his figure was like a swallow, flew out of his small courtyard, and sneaked into the mansion where the Eight Sage Kings lived.

In the morning, he secretly followed the Eight Sage Kings, and already knew the direction of his current residence.

Jiang Yi performed lightness kung fu, his body was like a ghost, and he landed lightly in the courtyard outside the eight sage king's room without making the slightest sound in the dark night.

He was about to step forward to knock on the door, when suddenly, a shout came from a shadow in the courtyard:

"who!"

At the same time, a bright knife light was drawn out like a horse, spanning a distance of three meters, and went straight to Jiang Yi's head.

It was the Eight Sage King's personal bodyguard, Qi Rui, who made the move.

Jiang Yi was slightly surprised: "As expected of the Eight Sage Kings, the guards around him are all very strong."

As he spoke, he held the black feather knife in his right hand, stepped in, and swung the knife to slash out.

The blade of the Black Lingdao is inconspicuous in the deep night, only the scream of the blade cutting through the air can show its existence.

when.

A string of sparks suddenly appeared, instantly illuminating the faces of the two people, and then the sparks were annihilated and returned to darkness.

call.

There was a sound of wind, and Jiang Yi's figure had disappeared in front of Qi Rui.

At the same time, Qi Rui heard the sound of a blade cutting through the air in the darkness beside her.

laugh.

Qi Rui only felt the hairs on his back stand on end, the warning signs were rising, and suddenly he was shocked, and his body retreated violently, avoiding the sudden knife.

He didn't stop until he retreated to the door of the room.

Then he reached out his hand to feel under the left rib, and found that the clothes had been cut by the sharp knife at some time. If he hadn't dodged in time just now, the waist rib would have been stabbed.

"What a fast knife."

Qi Rui looked extremely solemn, looking at Jiang Yi in the dark.

Jiang Yi was dressed in black, black trousers, and the knife in his hand was also all black. His whole body melted into the night, and his figure was indistinct.

Seeing that Jiang Yi had no intention of continuing to attack, Qi Rui asked solemnly, "Does your excellency know that this is the residence of the Eight Sage Kings? What is your purpose in forcibly breaking into this place?"

At the same time, three more guards were sneaked out, came to his side, firmly guarded the front door, and watched Jiang Yi covetously.

Jiang Yi flipped his wrist, put the knife back into its sheath, and said with a smile, "Don't worry, I don't mean anything malicious, I just have clues about the case of Prince Gaoli, and I just want to report to the Eighth Prince."

"If that's the case, why do you sneak around and attack in the middle of the night?" Qi Rui frowned, not quite believing Jiang Yi's words.

Before Qi Rui could continue to ask questions, a gentle and magnetic voice suddenly came out of the room:
