Chapter 60 Emergency treatment

Chapter 60 Emergency treatment
……

The East China Sea lacked a white jade bed, and the Dragon King came to invite the King of Jinling.

The Wang family, as one of the four major families, is the descendant of the Grand Marshal, the county earl and the prince, and is undoubtedly a family of wealth and power.

Although it is far inferior to the Jia family, Wang Ziteng has gradually gained power in recent years and is already able to suppress the historians.

The large house has five courtyards and a large garden at the back, which imitates the style of Suzhou gardens. The scenery is fresh and unique, with winding paths, various pavilions and terraces, and gurgling water.

Aunt Xue had no time to appreciate the beautiful scenery at this time. She sat in the pavilion waiting anxiously.

half an hour.

Wang Zisheng and Wang Ren hurried over, both with happy looks on their faces.

Wang Zisheng started shouting from a distance:

"Big girl!"

"Good news!"

Aunt Xue stood up immediately with a look of joy on her face.

"Third brother, is there any news about Pan'er?"

Wang Zisheng walked up to Aunt Xue and said with a smile, "Yes, I have. I have already asked. Pan'er is an official in the Ministry of Revenue, so the case has been transferred to the Ministry of Justice. We have people there. As long as we spend some money to arrange it, we will have no problem getting out."

Aunt Xue was very happy.

"It doesn't matter how much money it costs, as long as Pan'er can come out!"

"Then give me... 50,000 taels first."

Wang Zisheng asked tentatively.

"Okay! I'll get it right away."

Aunt Xue's mind was now filled with rescuing Xue Pan, and she didn't care about anything else. She agreed immediately and took out a money order for 50,000 taels.

Wang Zisheng took it tremblingly.

My heart was filled with joy.

The Xue family is so rich!
He took out 50,000 taels of silver without even blinking an eye.

Wang Ren, who was standing next to him, was so angry that his eyes almost popped out. He smiled and said, "Aunt, I have also found a friend. We can go to the prison of the Ministry of Justice to visit Brother Xue this afternoon. My friend said that the conditions in the prison are very difficult. He eats bran and drinks water every day and sleeps on damp straw. There are fleas and feces everywhere... We'd better spend some money to move to a clean single room. There will be not only delicious food but also servants to serve us."

Aunt Xue had been very distressed about Xue Pan's imprisonment for a long time, so why would she hesitate at this moment? She hurriedly asked, "Then let's go to a single room. How much does your friend say it will cost?"

Wang Ren thought for a moment and said, "The jailer must be bribed, and his subordinates must be included, otherwise Brother Xue will be in trouble in there... In my opinion, it will cost at least five thousand taels!"

Aunt Xue gritted her teeth.

I have already paid 50,000 taels, so 5,000 taels is really nothing.

Besides, this was beyond her expectations. She had originally been prepared to spend all her money to save Xue Pan, but she didn't expect that her family would be able to easily get through the connections.

It turns out that only my mother’s family is good!
"Don't worry, sister. With this money, Brother Pan will be able to come out in a few days!" Wang Zisheng promised confidently.

"Don't worry, aunt. I will make all the arrangements there and won't let Brother Xue suffer any grievances!" Wang Ren promised, patting his chest.

Aunt Xue hurriedly thanked them, "Pan'er was able to get out this time, thanks to the help of you uncles and brothers. When Pan'er is released from prison someday, I will definitely hold a banquet to thank you!"

Wang Zisheng smiled and said, "You are too polite, sister. We are all family!"

Wang Ren also smiled and said, "This is all as it should be. I will go and prepare some food and bring some delicious food to Brother Xue."

Aunt Xue said hurriedly, "Wait a minute, I know what Pan'er likes the most. I'll get some. Please bring it in for him to eat. Pan'er must have suffered a lot these past few days."

Wang Ren smiled and said, "My nephew will listen to my aunt!"

Aunt Xue didn't care about anything else and hurried back to prepare wine and food.

"Hurry up and prepare some of your brother's favorite food. Brother Ren will go to the prison to visit your brother this afternoon."

"I'll get another five thousand taels for Ren Ge'er and ask him to take care of things in the prison so your brother won't have to suffer."

"Your brother has never suffered any hardship since he was a child. He has suffered a disaster this time. I don't know how thin he has become!"

Xue Baochai couldn't help but frown.

There was an instinctive feeling that something was wrong.

"When will uncle be back?"

Aunt Xue smiled and said, "Your uncle suddenly had something else to do and can't come back for the time being, but he handed everything over to the third brother. The third brother will go to the Ministry of Justice tomorrow to give money and make arrangements. Maybe your brother will be back in a few days."

"Oh……"

Xue Baochai nodded silently.

I always have a bad feeling in my heart.

In the evening, Wang Ren came back in high spirits and told Aunt Xue, "Brother Xue has moved to a single room. The jailer is very polite and has arranged for a servant to serve him, and he is provided with good food and wine."

Aunt Xue was finally relieved and enthusiastically invited Wang Ren to dinner, but Wang Ren quickly declined.

"As a family, this little thing is what we should do. My aunt shouldn't be like this."

"There's something going on at home, I have to go back..."

After hearing what he said, Aunt Xue didn't want to try to keep him.

"Wait for Pan'er to come out and then I'll treat you properly."

"Thank you, aunt."

Wang Ren hurried out of the yard.

Burped.

Too much.

The second night.

Wang Zisheng laughed loudly and walked into Aunt Xue's yard.

"Great joy! Great joy!"

Aunt Xue asked happily, "Is it done?"

Wang Zisheng smiled and said, "It's already 90% done. We just need to wait for Shangguan to sign tomorrow, and then Brother Pan will be able to come out!"

Aunt Xue smiled and said, "Thank you, Third Brother. You must stay and drink today, or I won't agree!"

Wang Zisheng laughed.

"Easy to say, easy to say!"

Two days later...

Wang Zisheng hurried to Aunt Xue's residence.

There was some worry on his face.

"Big sister, something went wrong."

"what happened?"

Aunt Xue asked fearfully.

Wang Zisheng sighed and said, "It's bad luck. I happened to meet someone from above who came to the ministry to inspect. He asked about Pan'er's case. He was also a greedy person..."

"how?"

Aunt Xue's face turned paler and paler.

Wang Zisheng sighed and said bitterly, "That man actually wanted thirty thousand taels before agreeing, otherwise..."

Aunt Xue breathed a sigh of relief.

Money can solve it...

I was originally prepared to save him even if it meant losing everything I had.

"Wait a moment, Third Brother. Since they want money, it's easy. We still have some at home."

Aunt Xue was about to go back to the house to get the money when Wang Ren suddenly said, "Aunt, wait a moment..."

"That jailer is really hateful. He is actually a little greedy. He said that the money can only be used until today. If you don't take the money, all the preferential treatment given to Brother Xue will be revoked from tomorrow, and everything will be restored to the original state..."

Aunt Xue: "..."

"Then, how much more will it take?"

Wang Ren said: "At least... three thousand taels!"

"All right!"

At this time, life is the most important thing.

Three thousand taels is nothing.

Aunt Xue went back to her room and took out another 33,000 taels, gave them to the two of them, and warmly invited them to dinner.

Both of them declined.

Wang Zisheng said seriously, "It is more important to take care of Pan'er's business."

Wang Ren agreed, "Yes, I have to go and take care of it right away."

Aunt Xue forced a smile and said, "Then I won't stay any longer. I'll treat you to a drink when Pan'er comes out."

"It's easy to talk about."
