"Your Excellency is...?"

The middle-aged man turned his head and glanced at the visitor. When he saw that the visitor was very popular and that he was a child of a noble family, his tone softened.

"Who I am is not important. What is important is how much money he owes you?" Zi Yan said calmly, with a hint of arrogance.

"Sir, he doesn't owe me, he owes our boss. There are five hundred taels of silver in total, and the interest is compounded. Now he has to pay back seven hundred taels." said the strong man.

"I'm very confused. He looks like a poor scholar. How could your boss lend him so much? Even a charity house wouldn't be like this." Zi Yan asked.

"Although Ge Hongmin is just a scholar, when he borrowed money, he had the status of a swordsman and pen clerk in the county government. With this official status, there is no problem in borrowing five hundred taels." The middle-aged man said sincerely.

Zi Yan smiled and said: "I see, then, I will help him pay back the money."

"Sir, I will repay the money myself. Thank you very much for your kindness." Ge Hongmin took a step forward and cupped his hands.

What he didn't know was that once the young master paid back the money for him, he might have to pay more and more terrible things in the future, and even endanger the lives of his family.

"You still got it?" Zi Yan sneered.

"No one who offends my young master will have a good ending." Mickey next to her opened her eyes wide and raised her lips.

Ge Hongmin gritted his teeth, he was a little shaken.

The young man in front of me looks like he comes from a wealthy family, and he is not an ordinary wealthy family, but a family with a high status.

He has worked in the county government for more than ten years and has met many people, but few can compare with the temperament of the young master in front of him.

He is now in a dilemma.

Agree or disagree, the consequences seem to be serious.

But now does he really have the right to say no?

"Ge Hongmin, this young man is willing to pay back the money for you. Isn't this a great benefit? If you refuse, can you bear the consequences?" A strong man also persuaded.

The strong man doesn't care who pays back the money. What he cares about is that he has hope of recovering the debt. In this way, he will definitely be rewarded when he returns.

Since it was a matter of interest, he of course advised Ge Hongmin to accept it quickly.

"This is seven hundred taels of silver notes. You can take it back to pay for the business." Mi Qi stepped forward, took out a stack of silver notes, counted seven from the top, and stuffed them into the hands of the strong man.

This is called cutting first and showing later...

"Brothers, let's go."

The middle-aged man got the money, said hello, and walked away with his two younger brothers.

He walked so resolutely and quickly that eventually the three of them started running, fearing that the young man who gave the money would regret it.

Ge Hongmin glanced at Zi Yan with a complicated expression, and then quickly lowered his head.

He didn't know what to say. From beginning to end, he actually had no choice.

"What? Won't you take us to your house to sit down?" Zi Yan raised her eyebrows.

"My lord, Visa is so simple and simple, how can a noble person stay?" Ge Hongmin's expression gradually became numb.

"I said yes, just lead the way and keep walking." Zi Yan waved.

"Hey, let's go. My young master has spoken. You have to leave quickly. What are you waiting for?" Mickey glared again.

Ge Hongmin shuddered, nodded and walked forward.

"Sir, come with me."

The look in the boy's eyes was too scary, as if he wanted to kill someone. He didn't dare to delay any longer, so he could only turn around and walk away.

After walking for a while, a small courtyard appeared in front of us.

This is a relatively remote place in the county, and the surrounding environment looks average.

The wooden door to the small courtyard is locked from the outside.

"Your wife is not at home?" Zi Yan frowned.

He didn't say anything along the way. When he arrived at the door of his house, he heard Zi Yan say something.

"Zhuo Jing is not in good health and has been bedridden recently. When I was not at home, for fear of something happening, I locked the door outside," Ge Hongmin said.

"Don't you have any children at home?" Zi Yan asked again.

Ge Hongmin is about in his early thirties. People of this age have generally been married for more than ten years and usually have more than one child.

"I had it before, but I didn't raise it and died young. Later, my wife's body was weak and she didn't dare to have a child. The doctor said that she might die if she had a child." Ge Hongmin said in a low voice.

"I see. In a moment, let me feel your wife's pulse to see what's going on." Zi Yan said calmly.

"I don't dare bother you, sir."

"I'm treating your wife to give you face, so what's the point?" Mickey said loudly.

"Well, you can do whatever you want, young master," Ge Hongmin said with a pinch of his neck.

"Mr. Ge is a scholar, don't be so loud, it will not be good for others to hear." Zi Yan raised her eyebrows.

Ge Hongmin felt aggrieved. He originally thought that the young master wanted to speak for him, but unexpectedly, he just asked the book boy to lower his voice slightly.

Okay, from now on, you can do whatever you want.

Ge Hongmin took out the key, unlocked the door, and pushed the door open.

After stepping into the courtyard, I heard a cough coming from the side room.

Ge Hongmin didn't care about anything else. He hurriedly took a few steps, rushed into the main room, and entered the adjacent wing...

When Zi Yan and Mi Qi entered the room together, they saw Ge Hongmin supporting a woman and patting her on the back to comfort her.

"What a joke, my wife coughed and lost her breath." Ge Hongmin said.

Zi Yan noticed that this woman's face was very ugly, sallow and sallow, and she looked like someone who had been ill for a long time.

"Let me take a look, hold out your palm." Zi Yan said calmly.

"Madam, hold out your hand, this is the young master, a good man." Ge Hongmin whispered.

He knew that no matter what the young master's intentions were, at least for the moment he said he wanted to see a doctor, it was definitely not malicious.

The woman reached out a hand from under the quilt.

The hands were as withered as dry firewood, and the skin was also a little wrinkled.

Zi Yan stretched out two fingers and pressed on the woman's pulse gate.

"The doctor in the county said that my wife has lost her vitality and vitality, and her internal organs have been damaged..." Ge Hongmin said.

"Stop talking, my young master is thinking about something, don't interrupt him." Mi Qi spoke in a low voice this time, but the effect was very good. As soon as he opened his mouth, Ge Hongmin shut up.

After a while, Zi Yan let go of her fingers, glanced at Ge Hongmin and said, "Let's go and talk next door."

With just such a sentence, Ge Hongmin was already nervous.

Could it be that the situation is very bad?

After arriving in another room, Ge Hongmin looked at Ziyan with uneasiness.

"Your wife, what she has is not a disease, she is poisoned." Zi Yan said calmly.

"This... Young Master, how could my wife be poisoned?" The result was beyond his imagination, and he was shocked.
