Zhenguan Xiaoxian Wang Li Shen Li Shimin

Wang Zhengli now doubted whether he would be beaten to death on the spot by Prince Ji if he told him the amount of 30,000 strings of cash.

You gave 30,000 strings of cash out of one million, which is obviously a humiliation to Prince Ji.

"What? Don't you Wang family have any sincerity at all?

Are you willing to take this woman's life?

In this case, I will deal with it impartially and have him punished with 70 strokes of the cane. After that, no matter if he is dead or alive, our account will be written off.

what do you think? "

Seeing Wang Zhengli hesitate, Li Shen frowned and asked in a bad tone.

"Uncle San, Uncle San, don't do that."

Wang Wanqing knelt on the ground, her legs numb, but she didn't dare to speak until she heard that it would cost one million guan.

Only then did she realize how much trouble she had caused.

She had never seen one million strings of cash in her life, and she knew that the Wang family simply could not afford so much money.

In other words, even if he could come up with so much money by selling everything he had, he would not use it to buy her life.

She felt that she did not have the ability to make her family save her at all costs.

Wang Zhengli was also very upset when he saw his niece grabbing his skirt and shaking her to beg for mercy.

His niece is very clever and has been very close to her uncle since she was a child, just like his own daughter.

How could he bear to see Wang Wanqing beaten to death like this?

If it were in other county governments, for the sake of the Wang family's face, Wang Wanqing would be fine even if she was beaten with a hundred sticks, let alone seventy sticks. At most, she would suffer some physical pain.

But this is Prince Ji’s Palace in Chang’an City.

The executioners were all King Ji's men. Not to mention seventy strokes of the stick, even ten strokes would be enough to kill someone.

That was just a matter of a look from Prince Ji.

Although the Wannian county magistrate beside him had not spoken a word, he had heard that this county magistrate was recommended by Prince Ji.

His son still works under Prince Ji, and they have a close relationship.

It would be better to have no witness than to have him there.

But.......

When Wang Zhengli thought of the one million strings of cash, he felt a sense of powerlessness.

One million guan, how much can I get even if I negotiate? Seven hundred thousand or eighty?

Where does the Wang family get so much money?

"Your Highness Prince Ji, it's not that my Wang family doesn't have sincerity, it's that my Wang family simply can't afford so much money.

I hope His Royal Highness Prince Ji will show mercy and spare my niece's life.

On behalf of the Wang family, I am extremely grateful. If you ask me to do so in the future, the Wang family will definitely repay this favor."

Wang Zhengli had no other choice but to beg.

"Alas~~~This prince is just soft-hearted and can't stand others begging.

How about this, you should at least show some sincerity, and I won’t pursue the rest.

To be honest, I don't need your little money. I just want to teach you a lesson.

The people of this world are all descendants of my Li family. Your aristocratic families have been passed down for several dynasties.

To be honest, you have not made any contribution to the Tang Dynasty.

On the contrary, you are enjoying the treatment given to you by our Tang Dynasty.

This is unfair to the people of the world. It's so unfair.

The reason why you have been able to pass on for thousands of years is due to countless betrayals and defections.

You said this kind of disloyalty is called a good minister choosing his master to serve and a good bird choosing its tree to roost, right?"

Li Shen narrowed his eyes and spoke with pity in his tone, but the expression on his face was contemptuous.

Wang Zhengli could see that Prince Ji didn't take their families seriously at all.

"Prince Ji, please be wise. My Langya Wang family is loyal to the court and even more loyal to Your Majesty. We have no second thoughts."

Wang Zhengli quickly expressed his attitude.

"Okay." Li Shen waved his hand.

"Don't show your loyalty to me. I am just an idle prince. I never participate in the affairs of the court and I am too lazy to participate.

Let’s get down to business. I have already made concessions, and the rest depends on your will.

I still say that I will not force you to do anything, it is all your own will. "

The word "voluntary" sounded so heavy and harsh in Wang Zhengli's ears.

Prince Ji is indeed just like the rumors outside, like a devil. He is obviously trying to coerce you, but he lets you say it yourself.

Little did he know that Li Shen was a modern man who understood the principle of "voluntariness" better than anyone else.

You can disagree, but can you afford the consequences that will follow?

I'm not threatening you. Everything is done according to the rules. It's up to you whether you are willing or not.

You don't want to? Then think about whether Wang Wanqing will be beaten to death.

According to common sense, it shouldn't happen, she would just suffer some physical pain, but if she loses and Wang Wanqing can't hold on, it can only be said that she is weak.

Now Wang Wanqing is in someone else's hands, and then they tell you that it is voluntary. How can this be considered voluntary?

"Your Highness Prince Ji, we are willing to compensate...compensate..."

Wang Zhengli really didn't know how to bargain for a moment.

"Why, is it so difficult? I have already said that as long as you show some sincerity, I will forgive you for the rest.

This king has shown such great sincerity, and you are still not satisfied?"

Li Shen's face darkened.

"No, no, no, that's not what I meant, it's just... it's just... Your Highness Prince Ji, I don't know how much I should give you.

This one million strings of cash is too huge, and my Wang family really can’t afford to pay it.”

Wang Zhengli really wanted to say that even if they cut it in half, they couldn’t afford the compensation.

With such a large number, how much should I give myself?

“It’s so troublesome, just give it to me casually. I don’t know how much money your Wang family has.

It will be within the capacity of your family. I will not force you if you don’t have it.

I just want your attitude.

Just let this king see your sincerity."

Li Shen was a little impatient.

Wang Zhengli saw that Prince Ji was getting impatient, and he knew that he couldn't anger Prince Ji. After thinking for a moment,

He gritted his teeth, made up his mind, and reported a number.

"One hundred thousand strings of cash."

"Pfft~~~"

"How many?"

"One hundred thousand strings of cash?"

Li Shen was drinking tea when he heard Shiwanguan spit out a mouthful of tea and then shouted loudly.

Even Wang Xuance and Wang Hongfu who were standing by were a little surprised.

"Your Highness Prince Ji, my Wang family really does not have that much money, and this 100,000 strings of cash is already our greatest sincerity.

If there are more, our Wang family will really be in decline.

Thanks to His Royal Highness Prince Ji's continued business development over the years, we have been able to make some money.

One hundred thousand strings of cash is indeed not much, please show mercy, Your Highness Prince Ji, and spare it......"

"You don't have to say anything. One hundred thousand strings of cash is one hundred thousand strings of cash. Deal."

Before Wang Zhengli could finish his crying, Li Shen interrupted him and agreed.

"Forgiven...what? His Royal Highness Prince Ji agreed?"

Wang Zhengli was also confused. Did they agree so quickly? He even prepared a lot of crying and singing speeches.
