Although Liang Yan was extremely incompetent and could only brag, he still knew the most basic observation of the words and expressions of those who were in the officialdom. He carefully observed the Zhang Baihu, and saw that Zhang Baihu was playing with the inkstone on his desk in his hand. From the Baihu's eyes, Liang Yan seemed to see hope for his life. "Is Zhang Baihu going to arrest the officials?" Liang Yan asked suddenly.

Zhang Baihu laughed: "If Zhang wants to bring you to justice, why should he come alone? Zhang came here just kindly reminded Liang that the Jinyiwei has already set his sights on you."

"Why did Zhang Baihu remind the officials?" Liang Yuan asked.

"It's money, everyone wants to make money. After you three have made so much money, have you never considered our Jinyiwei? You must know that Zhang is the person in charge of this case." Zhang Baihu continued to play with the inkstone in his hand, with a bit of threat and coercion in his tone. When his head turned around, his eyes showed a greedy look.

"Zhang Baihu is really refreshing! Since that's the case, then you can tell me a lot. As long as the money can solve the problem, it's not a problem." Liang Yan replied.

Zhang Baihu stretched out a finger and shook it in front of Liang Feng's eyes a few times.

"Ten thousand taels?"

"What? Took the beggars with 10,000 taels?" Zhang Baihu sneered.

"100,000 taels?" Liang Yuan asked again.

Zhang Baihu snorted coldly: "One million taels, no one can be left!"

"One million taels?" Liang Yan gasped, "Zhang Baihu, why don't you be a robbery? Where did the Xiaguan get one million taels? You'd better take Xiaguan away!"

Zhang Baihu laughed: "One million taels, but you buy the lives of your three families and nine tribes. Liang Langzhong, it's not that your family will pay one million taels, but that your three families will pay one million taels in total. The Yang Mingjing you recommended once sold dozens of officials in one day and asked him to pay 500,000 taels. I'm afraid it's not a big problem for him? You and Liang Chaozhong, one person only costs 250,000 taels. This amount of money is not a problem for you, right?"

Liang Yuan breathed a sigh of relief and said quickly: "No problem, no problem, the whole family of Xiaguan is included in Zhangbaihu."

Then, Liang Yuan sent someone to get 250,000 taels of silver and handed it to Zhang Baihu: "Zhang Baihu, this is 250,000 taels of silver and it is a silver bill."

Zhang Baihu shook his head: "I don't want silver bills, I want cash silver. Li Zhe is outside the city. Whether Guangzhou City can be defended is still a question. I have obtained this silver bill, where can I exchange it for silver?"

Liang Yuan hurriedly said, "Zhang Baihu, this is not the silver bill of Lingnan Silver, this is the silver bill of Jiangnan Donglin Silver. You can exchange it anywhere with this silver bill. Even when you go to the Tatars, there are Jiangnan Silver bills that can be exchanged for cash silver."

Zhang Baihu took the silver notes, took them in his hand and looked them carefully for a few times, picked them up again, looked at the light for a while, and then carefully put them away carefully. Then he stood up and bowed to Liang Yuan: "Dr. Liang, please say goodbye!"

Finally, he sent this plague god away! Looking at Zhang Baihu's departure back, Liang Feng said with lingering fear.

Zhang Baihu walked out of Liang Fu and said in his heart: The world is in chaos, the country is broken, the mountains and rivers are broken, these guys are still doing evil. It seems that the pseudo-Yongli court is almost over.

At this moment, a group of Jinyiwei suddenly rushed out of the alley next to him and held Zhang Baihu down. Then, the Jinyiwei found the silver notes of 250,000 taels of silver from Zhang Baihu. The Jinyiwei, the leader, shouted: "Zhang Baihu, you are so brave! You actually accepted the bribes of the suspect! Take them away!"

A Jinyiwei School Captain pointed to Liang Yan's mansion and asked, "Sir, have we rushed into the suspect's home and confiscated their home?"

"We have no driver's post, and all the evidence is in the hands of Zhang Baihu. We have never collected evidence. Without driver's post, how can we come in and arrest people? Let's go back and report to His Majesty first." The leader said.

More than a dozen Jinyiwei guards escorted Zhang Baihu, turned east and west in the streets and alleys, turned into a small alley, and finally walked into a yard. After entering the yard, the Jinyiwei guards loosened Zhang Baihu and the person in charge said, "Brother, you have been wronged. Let's do this, I hope Liang Yuan will be fooled."

Zhang Baihu smiled and said, "Even if the boy named Liang is not fooled, Gu Yuanjing will not let him go! I have asked someone to report to Gu Yuanjing, saying that the three corrupt officials Su Guansheng was in danger of the country and were still filling his personal pockets. I believe Gu Yuanjing will definitely ask someone to catch Liang Yan and the others.

Besides, Liang Yuan saw Zhang Baihu walking out, and asked a servant to secretly follow him. As a result, the servant saw this terrifying scene, so he ran back and reported to Liang Yuan: "Master, master, something is wrong. Zhang Baihu, who had just come to our mansion to visit, was arrested, and the silver notes we gave were found from him."

Liang Yan was so scared that his face was pale and he almost sat on the ground: "It's over!"

"Master, we have 250,000 taels of silver and wasted." The slave said.

"What's the point of 250,000 taels? Now it's a question of whether our family's lives can be saved!" Liang Yan shouted.

The slave asked quickly: "Master, what should I do now?"

"Come on sedan chair quickly. Master, I'm going to Yang Futai, Minister Liang, to discuss it." Liang Feng said.

Liang Feng arrived at Liang Chaozhong's mansion, but saw Yang Mingjing was there too.

"Dr. Liang, there is Zhang Baihu from the Jinyiwei. Have you ever been to your mansion?" Liang Chaozhong asked.

"I have been here, I just came and asked me for 250,000 taels of silver. But, just..."

"Just what?"

"It's just that Zhang Baihu just left Xiaguan's mansion and was caught by a group of Jinyiwei!"

"What?" Liang Chaozhong and Yang Mingjing were shocked.

At this moment, one of Yang Mingjing's family arrived at Liang Chaozhong's mansion. He rolled and crawled into the hall, shouting in a crying voice: "Master, Master, something is wrong! Mr. Gu (Gu Yuanjing) and Ren Qianhu (Ren Zixin) brought the Jinyiwei to our house and searched the house!"

Liang Chaozhong was shocked: "It seems that I am not safe here anymore. The Jinyiwei will come to our place soon! No, we can't sit there like this, wait for death, so we should think of a solution!"

Yang Mingjing said: "What are you hesitating about? Let's run away quickly."

Liang Yan said with a sad face: "But the monk can't run away from the temple. If we run away, what should our family do?"

Yang Mingjing snorted coldly: "If we stay in the mountains, we will not worry about burning firewood. If we don't run away, we will fall into the hands of the Jinyiwei, and none of our families will be able to escape! The crime of deceiving the king, liaring military information, embezzlement and bribery, and adding up the three crimes, will destroy the nine clans! If we run out, maybe we can even get our families out."

"How to save monks?" Liang Chaozhong and Liang Yuan asked in unison.

Before Yang Mingjing could answer, he heard someone shouting outside: "Master, run away, Jinyiwei is here!"

"Go away!" Liang Chaozhong quickly stood up, "I have a secret thought behind me, come with me!"

Yang Mingjing and Liang Feng followed Liang Chaozhong into the back garden in the mansion. Liang Chaozhong led the two into a rockery and into the cave of the rockery. Entering the cave, Liang Chaozhong turned a mechanism, and a crack appeared in a secret door. Then Liang Chaozhong pushed open the secret door, and the three entered the secret passage, and then closed the secret door.

The three of them didn't know how far they had walked, but finally came out of the secret passage. When they came out, they found that this was a large yard.

"We have arrived. It's very safe here. They are all my husbands." Liang Chaozhong said, pointing to a group of men practicing martial arts in the yard.
