After rebirth, I married the emperor's uncle and overthrew my ex-husband's kingdom

"He is my second brother, we still have to take care of his life and death."

Bai Youyou calmly sat on the chair, curling her lips and smiling, "The Great Zhou law only says that debts must be repaid, but it doesn't say that debts must be paid, right?"

Manager Chen was left speechless by her sophistry.

She said that it is only natural to pay back debts, and that everyone is responsible for their own actions.

If he could really take action, why would he keep talking for so long? He is not the kind of gentleman who only talks but does not take action!

"Fourth Miss, you, the Yongning Marquisate, just don't want to admit your mistake now?"

"Manager Chen, please be careful with your words. We are not hiding the debtor. When you came, I took the initiative to bring the person to you."

Bai Youyou finally picked up the IOU on the table, glanced at it briefly, and then curled her lips, "One hundred thousand taels? When you lent him the money, didn't you consider whether he had the ability to pay it back?"

She casually threw the IOU at the feet of Manager Chen. "The man is there. If he can pay you back a hundred thousand taels of silver at once, you can take it. If he can't pay you back, you can ask him to pay you back slowly. After all, it's about money, not life. He can pay it back in his lifetime if he saves a little bit every day."

"you!"

Manager Chen was so angry when he saw Bai Youyou, who was even more shameless than himself.

How could such a rich family have such a daughter? !

No wonder other people didn’t come out and let her come. She has a really powerful mouth!

The butler walked in quickly from outside, holding a sharp machete in his hand.

"Miss, this knife has just been sharpened. With one cut, it can even break a cow's bone. It won't take much effort to cut off an arm or a leg."

"Give it to Manager Chen."

Bai Youyou smiled and nodded in the direction of Manager Chen.

The butler walked over, holding the big knife in both hands and handed it to him, with an unconcealable smile in his eyes.

Every evildoer will be punished by his own evildoers. If any master in the family were to do this, he would not be able to bring himself to do such a thing.

Only the Fourth Young Lady has such courage.

"Manager Chen, if it doesn't work for you, I can always look for another one."

Manager Chen looked at the machete with a very thin blade and felt a chill run up his spine.

"Young Miss Four is amazing! I will definitely report this to my master when I get back!"

He took a step back, bent down to pick up the IOU on the ground, snorted coldly, and left with a heavy wave of his sleeves.

On the third floor of Lao Zhang's gambling house, Marquis Yong'an and the prince were sitting at a table. In the copper pot on the table, broth was bubbling and steaming.

"Yesterday, Marquis Yongning and Bai Yanlang came to my house overnight, and I asked the concierge to find an excuse to send them away."

The prince paused with his chopsticks in his hand, raised his eyes to look at him, and said with a hint of disapproval, "Why don't you let me into the mansion to talk?"

"They came here just to ask me to show some leniency. What can I say?"

Marquis Yong'an picked up another large piece of mutton with chopsticks and stuffed it into his mouth, his mouth full of oil.

He had a fat head and big ears, and when he ate, his mouth kept making 'smacking' sounds, just like a pig rooting for food.

A look of disgust flashed across the prince's eyes. He lost his appetite and simply put down his chopsticks.

He picked up the teacup beside him, drank a sip of tea and rinsed his mouth. The maid beside him immediately came forward with a clean handkerchief.

The prince took the handkerchief and wiped his mouth gracefully. After putting it down, he said earnestly, "Leave a way for everything so that we can meet again in the future. Although I don't have much contact with the Marquis of Yongning, I still have to do the work to save face."

"I've been rejected anyway, so I don't bother. Besides, if I don't meet you, I can find a reason to do it later, right?"

Lord Yong'an put down his chopsticks, took a handkerchief and wiped his mouth and hands casually, then threw it aside, not caring about it.

Except for the first old marquis, the Yongning Marquis' Mansion has been in a period of transition, with each generation being weaker than the previous one.

Today, Marquis Yongning is neither good at literature nor martial arts, and his health is also weak.

This title is not hereditary. The Yongning Marquisate has been inherited for three generations. If there is no major achievement, his son will only be an earl.

It's just a declining marquisate, not worthy of him lowering himself to give it face.

"Prince, Lord, Steward Chen is back."

"Let him in."

Marquis Yong'an spoke and the guards opened the door.

As soon as Manager Chen entered the room, he slid to his knees, and cried like a bereaved family: "My Lord, the Yongning Marquisate simply doesn't take you seriously! I took the IOU there, and they sent a young girl to deal with me, and they refused to acknowledge the debt, saying that whoever borrowed the money should pay it back, but the Yongning Marquisate won't acknowledge it."

"what?!"

Upon hearing this, Yong'an Hou flew into a rage. He slammed the table and said, "You bastard Yongning Hou, your plea failed and now you are refusing to pay!"

The prince frowned and reached out to hold back the Yong'an Marquis who was about to explode.

He stared at Manager Chen with a cold face, "Who is the person who is going to see you?"

"She calls herself Bai Si, and is the fourth lady of the second branch of Yongning Marquis's mansion."

Manager Chen met the prince's cold eyes and did not dare to exaggerate. He said honestly: "She also said that everyone should be responsible for their own actions. We should go to whoever borrowed the money."

"Bai Youyou?"

The prince laughed suddenly, "Besides this, what else did she say?"

"She also asked someone to find a sharp knife and asked me to cut off her brother's arms and legs. But..."

Manager Chen raised his head and glanced at him cautiously, "I really have no choice but to return home first."

"Useless!" Yong'an Hou's face turned blue with anger, "You can't even control a little girl!"

The prince waved his hand at him, "You go down first."

Manager Chen retreated, and Yong'an Hou cursed, "This Bai Yanlang is really cunning. He didn't show up himself, but let a little girl come out to deal with it."

"What do you mean by 'one person is responsible for his own actions'? Whoever borrowed the money should be asked to pay it back. Isn't it obvious that you don't want to take responsibility?"

"He even took out a knife to have his arms and legs cut off. This shows that he is sure that we dare not touch that kid Bai Luochuan!"

"Indeed, even if I ask you to do it, you really don't dare to move."

The prince turned the porcelain white wine cup on the table with his fingers, curled his lips and smiled, saying indifferently: "If the mountain doesn't come to me, I will go to the mountain."

Everything has been done. No matter what, we must force the people from the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion to come forward.

Even if they don't want this favor, they have to do it to them.

"Uncle, go find someone to spread this right now. Also, secretly send someone to pass a message to the old lady of Yongning Marquis, asking her to find a way to force the Duke of Zhenguo to intervene. After that, I will definitely give her what she wants."

"it is good!"

Yong'an Hou immediately agreed and walked out of the door aggressively with his nine-month pregnant belly.

The sun is shining brightly outside and the snow is melting.

Bai Youyou and Qiao Bing rode their horses to North Street again.

"Mr. Liang's home is nearby. Fourth cousin, please wait here for me. I will ask Mr. Liang if he knows where Li Dahu's home is."

"Ah."

Bai Youyou got off the horse, led the horse to a clean open space and waited.

The Li Dahu mentioned by Qiao Bing is the person who drank with Bai Luochuan that day. She must find evidence this time to completely nail down Bai Muchen, the black sheep.

In order to avoid him always plotting sinister things to harm others behind their backs, she doesn't have the time to follow behind and clean up the mess.

The sun above his head slowly set in the west. After a long time, Bai Youyou still hadn't waited for Qiao Bing to come back, so he simply led the white horse and walked in the direction where Qiao Bing had left.

But when she reached the northernmost slope, she suddenly stopped.
