Chapter 358
Concubine An was dumbfounded: "You are crazy."

However, Xia Qingyang didn't finish talking: "Besides, the cricket died, and the elder brother was sad, so he had to catch a new one to fill the vacancy. It would cost so much money to catch a new cricket. So I think, doubling, at least 200 taels. What do you think?"

Not only Concubine An, but even the youngest Cheng was dumbfounded.

"Brother An, take the money." Xia Qingyang didn't give them time to think. After finishing speaking, he pulled up a chair and sat down. "Mingzhu, go to the shopkeeper downstairs to get a pen and paper. There are ink pads, too. Take a box if you want."

Mingzhu was called by name suddenly, but she reacted quickly and went to get what she wanted without stopping.

Xia Qingyang moved quickly, and within a few minutes, the reconciliation letter was written in duplicate.

One for Xia Jing and one for Cheng Laosan.

To be honest, when Xia Jing received the letter of understanding, she was still in a state of confusion.

He had a lot of questions to ask, but for some reason, seeing Shang Xia Qingyang's eyes, he felt an inexplicable trust and peace of mind from the inside out.

He was sure that Xia Qingyang would not harm him.So regardless of Ah Shu's obstruction, he directly signed on it.

Ah Shu sat down next to Xia Jing with no strength, and said repeatedly: "It's over, it's over, the eldest miss is still out of her mind, and she wants to give someone else 200 taels of silver for free. The young master is also crazy..."

"Ashu, shut up." Xia Jing looked at Xia Qingyang, his eyes were shining brightly, "I think my sister must have a reason for doing this."

On the other hand, in line with the principle of being cheap and not taking advantage of bastards, Cheng Laosan accepted the money immediately without hesitation, signed and pressed his fingerprints.

He thought to himself that such a big fool is rare now, and he will have to pay a lot of money when he will test the brothers' injuries.

Unexpectedly, the moment he finished pressing his fingerprints, Xia Qingyang immediately picked up the two copies of the letter of understanding and presented it to Ren Yi.

"The letter of understanding is here. The origin of the matter, including the settlement amount and a series of other contents, are all written on it, and have been confirmed by the parties involved, signed and fingerprinted." Xia Qingyang spoke slowly and clearly.

Ren Yi's eyes fell on Xia Qingyang for a while, and there seemed to be appreciation in her eyes.

She took the letter of understanding, said "OK", and motioned Xia Qingyang to rest beside her, then glanced at the signature on the letter of understanding, and came to Cheng Laosan:

"Cheng Zhuhe, do you admit that you deliberately extorted money and defrauded the victim Xia Jing of 200 taels of silver?!"

As soon as the words came out, everyone was shocked.

blackmail?

Cheng Laosan was stunned: "Just kidding, what evidence do you have to say that I blackmailed you? Didn't they all give up and pay the money?"

"Want evidence?" Ren Yi strode to the table, took out a gourd from her bosom, unplugged it, poured out a little white powder from it, and sprinkled it on the dead cricket.

In fact, Cheng Lao San's expression changed the moment he saw the white powder.

Immediately afterwards, when the crickets kicked their legs and "resurrected from the dead", the youngest Cheng was completely ashamed.

"What? Survived?!"

"This, does this powder have the effect of bringing the dead back to life, it can actually bring the dead crickets back to life!"

"It's amazing, what's going on?"

People gathered around, amazed again and again.

Ren Yi casually picked up the cup next to it and held the cricket to prevent the "key evidence" from bouncing around: "This is not some powder that can bring the dead back to life. This is just Baidujie, a common antidote in the hands of people in the Jianghu."

Everyone wondered: What is the feign death technique?
"Fake death is a kind of witchcraft in Xideng Kingdom. It can keep little mice and bugs in a state of suspended animation. No problems can be observed with the naked eye. Afterwards, they can be revived through this common detoxification. After Ren Yi explained briefly, she put the gourd back into her arms.

Then he turned his head to see the third child, his face was covered with beads of sweat.

"Okay, you really are a scammer!" Ah Shu was so angry that he wanted to come up and kick him.

Xia Qingyang stopped him: "Hey, don't worry, there is a more important issue right now—"

Everyone waited with bated breath for Xia Qingyang's next words. Who would have thought that she would hiss and ask, "Who knows how much you can get in the end if this crime of extortion goes to the Yamen for adjudication?"

Someone in the crowd yelled that in Dachun law, the compensation for extortion is fifty times the amount of the case.

"Fifty times 200 taels of silver is..." Xia Qingyang looked at Concubine An.

Concubine An's eyes were as bright as stars: "1 taels of silver!"

"Not bad."

"Of course, I can still do this arithmetic."

This group of people sang in unison, and the three of them were dumbfounded: "No, are you crazy? I don't know what kind of fake death! When did I admit that I blackmailed people? You can't just convict!"

Ren Yi shook the letter of understanding in her hand: "Isn't the black and white testimony right here, with your signature and drawing on it."

Cheng Laosan choked, then looked at Xia Qingyang angrily.

Xia Qingyang raised his eyebrows, and then snapped open the folding fan in his hand, causing Cheng Laosan to take a step back in fright.

"...As for whether you performed the feigned death technique, you will find out after searching your residence." Ren Yi's eyes turned cold, "In Dachun Kingdom, using witchcraft in any form is against the law! For the rest, you should discuss it with the judge in the yamen!"

Accompanied by Ren Yi clapping her hands twice, a team of yamen servants rushed up from downstairs and took Cheng Laosan into custody.

It turned out that Ren Yi's entourage had already obeyed her order and went to the yamen to call someone.

Perhaps it is the tacit understanding between smart people that does not need words.

With just one look from Ren Yi, Xia Qingyang understood what she meant, and stepped forward to explain the whole story to the yamen servant concisely and clearly.

"It's just like what this young master said." After Xia Qingyang finished speaking, Ren Yi instructed, "In addition, apart from extortion, this Cheng Zhuhe is also suspected of using the witchcraft of the West Deng Kingdom. check."

The yamen servant knelt on one knee: "Princess, don't worry, we will take him back and interrogate him."

Princess? !

Everyone gasped in unison, all eyes fell on Ren Yi.

"Not good." Ren Yi pulled the hood of the cloak, turned her back to the crowd, and whispered to Xia Qingyang and Concubine An, "I'll take a step first. Find me on the top floor of Yujun Pavilion later—— With your current ability, you should be able to go up easily."

When she said this, Ren Yi's gaze swept across Concubine An's face.

Concubine An Gui didn't know what she thought of, she was shocked visibly by the naked eye.

Ren Yi seemed to smile a little, and then amidst the exclamation of the crowd, she pressed the window and rolled out, using lightness kung fu, and disappeared from people's sight in two or three strokes.

"Son!"

As soon as the incident was over, Mingzhu and Sitao immediately ran from the corner to Xia Qingyang and An Guifei.

With the support of Ah Shu, Xia Jing also came to Xia Qingyang: "Gu, aunt."

Xia Qingyang saw that Xia Jing was a little excited, but also a little timid that he hadn't seen for a long time, so he smiled and bent over: "How are you, are you not hurt?"

Xia Jing shook his head vigorously, looked at Xia Qingyang without blinking, but was too excited to say anything.

His aunt is amazing!Like a hero!
After returning home, he must immediately tell his father and the others about meeting his little aunt today!
