However, his uncle Zhao Rushu was also from the clan and was quite greedy for money. Yuan Mihai could only say: "Please make it clear to King Yi that Mihai is willing to do his best." His attitude was also very low.

"You and I can be considered relatives after all." Zhao Yurui said at this time.

"Considering your age, I still have to call you Brother Yuan."

Yuan Mihai's expression moved slightly, not knowing whether to laugh or cry. Would anyone treat his brother like this?

"Let's do this. I won't blackmail you. You can pay fifty thousand yuan and forget about it."

"What?" Yuan Mihai almost jumped up after hearing this.

Zhou Qiong even covered her mouth, wanting to laugh but not daring to laugh.

King Yi is too cruel and too dark.

Zhao Yurui stared at him with a dark face, and Yuan Mihai looked like he wanted to cry again: "Prince Yi, I have not lost so much even if I have lost my family and property."

"Quan Yong, go find my uncle."

"Here." Quan Yong turned around to leave.

"Don't." Yuan Mihai jumped up and grabbed Quan Yong.

"Kneel down." Zhao Yurui said angrily.

With a plop, Yuan Mihai knelt down again, his face flushed, and he was filled with shame and anger: "King Yi, there really aren't that many."

"Sixty thousand dollars." Zhao Yurui added coldly with a straight face.

"Hiss" Yuan Mihai took a breath and stared at Zhao Yurui in disbelief. He had seen all kinds of people in the capital, but this was the first time that Zhao Yurui was so ruthless and dark.

Yuan Mihai moved his mouth, wanting to say something, but still didn't dare.

"My patience is limited. You still have one last chance. You need to think clearly before speaking." Zhao Yurui said coldly.

At this time, he glanced at Zhou Qiong slightly from the corner of his eye.

Zhou Qiong understood this and quickly stepped forward to be the peacemaker and put in a good word for Yuan Mihai. Yuan Mihai was immediately moved.

After Zhou Qiong helped negotiate, Zhao and Rui finally reluctantly accepted a compensation of 30,000 yuan.

Yuan Mihai's expression changed, then he gritted his teeth and said in a deep voice: "I need to sell off my family property, and half of it is for profit."

"Silver, copper coins, Huizi, one-third each, I'll give you three days." Zhao Yurui said.

Yuan Mihai stared at him, and after a moment, nodded fiercely: "Okay."

"Ah, good brother, get up, get up, it's all a misunderstanding, hahaha." Zhao Yurui turned his anger into joy, laughed and stepped forward, and kindly helped Yuan Mihai up.

Yuan Mihai's expression was indescribably uncomfortable, and he had probably greeted all the eighteen generations of Zhao and Rui ancestors in his heart.

"Mi Hai must be scolding me for being greedy and evil-hearted. In fact, I have no choice. There are so many people in the palace to support, and I can't make ends meet every month. I just spent all my savings to buy Feng Lai Building, and I really have no money."

Yuan Mihai gritted his teeth, you can't blackmail me like this even if you don't have money? You dare not speak out if you dare.

Zhou Qiong also didn’t expect Zhao Yurui to be so shameless and straightforward.

When he first arrived at Feng Lai Tower, Zhou Qiong felt that Zhao Yurui was a handsome nobleman, gentle and polite.

But the fight just now, and the way he is blackmailing people now, are simply worse than Yuan Mihai.

Really, people should not be judged by their appearance.

Just when Zhou and Yuan were having their own thoughts, Zhao Yurui said again: "Mi Hai and I will go back together in a while, just in time to meet my uncle. It has been almost a month since I came to Lin'an, and I haven't seen my uncle yet."

".." Yuan Mihai's face suddenly turned red, and he was shocked and frightened: "Prince Yi?"

"Don't worry, don't worry, today we will only talk about family ties and nothing else."

Yuan Mihai's face turned redder, feeling ashamed and scared. Zhao Yurui was reminding him that coming to the door today was tantamount to a threat. If he doesn't get the money on time next time, hehe.

"King Yi is extremely affectionate and filial. My uncle will be very pleased to know that." Yuan Mihai forced a smile.

Not long after, two carriages arrived at Zhao Rushu's house at the same time.

Zhao Yurui jumped out of the car and took a look at the Zhao Mansion. They found that the Zhao Mansion was very big, as the wall in front could be seen.

That day he went to Qi Xiong's house and found that the wall around Qi Xiong's house was almost a hundred meters long, which showed that Qi Xiong's family was relatively wealthy.

The front wall of Zhao Mansion is nearly a hundred steps wide and looks more imposing.

He thought that his Prince Wei's palace was not much bigger than his.

It seems that Zhao Rushu is also very rich.

Zhao Yurui guessed right, Zhao Rushu is a traitor and has always been good at robbing and amassing.

Yuan Mihai learned from his uncle, but he didn't expect that half of his life savings would be stolen when he met Zhao Yurui, a ruthless man.

I'm afraid there is nothing good that can be gained from such a person? Zhao Yurui thought silently and entered the mansion.

Your generation is the eighth generation grandson of Song Taizong, and there are still many of them in the Southern Song Dynasty.

Including brothers Zhao Rutan and Zhao Rutan from Yuhang, who were also members of the same branch as Zhao Rushu.

However, several clans, including Zhao Rushu and others, could not find a man of about fifteen years old with good character, so Zhao Hong became the prince.

Of course, there is one more important thing among them. Usually when looking for a successor to the crown prince, it is best for the father to be absent.

For example, Zhao Hong's father has passed away, and now Ning Zong is his father.

If Zhao Hong's father is still alive and Ning Zong is also his father, Ji Bu will have many problems.

Unfortunately for Zhao Yurui and Yuan Mihai, Zhao Rushu was not at home but still in the Yamen.

He is the Minister of the Ministry of War. The Six Ministers and Ministers of the Southern Song Dynasty are just like temporary posts. They are just to get a rank and get some salary. There is no specific job. In fact, they don’t need to be on duty.

But Zhao Shilang was quite serious and was still in the Yamen in the afternoon.

Aunt Yuan received them and asked Zhao Yurui to stay for dinner.

Of course Zhao Yurui would not stay. He bought a gift on the street when he came. After putting down the gift, he said a few words to Mr. Yuan and left.

As soon as Zhao Yurui left, Yuan Mihai cursed: "This bitch extorted my money, please help me."

Yuan is in her thirties, which is not really old, but Zhao Rushu has a younger concubine, and she has become more and more unworthy in recent years.

When she heard this, she became furious: "Shut up."

Yuan Mihai's whole body trembled when he was sprayed.

"It's okay for you to be messing around in the past, and you don't care who you are provoking now." Yuan said angrily: "King Yi is the prime minister's close relative, a clan recognized by the government, and the prime minister is full of praise for him."

"Your uncle is running the affairs of the Minister of Justice. You can't cause trouble now."

Yuan Mihai's expression was stunned. What's the difference between the Minister of Justice and the Minister of War?

Yuan said that the Minister of the Ministry of Punishment is old and will become an official next year. Zhao Rushu intends to go to the Ministry of Punishment and can replace the Minister next year. The higher the official position, the higher the salary will naturally be.

After becoming the key minister, if there is an opportunity to outsource the prefecture in the future and become a local magistrate with real power, that would be great.

In fact, Zhao Rushu's promotion trajectory in the original history was like this, first moving to the Ministry of Punishment, then to the Secretary, and finally to the Prefect.

Then he died of illness in office.

Yuan Mihai cried: "I don't know, this King Yi wants to blackmail me for 30,000 yuan, and he also wants 31 yuan each for me."

"Thirty thousand guan?" Yuan also exclaimed.

"Even though I've lost everything, it's not that much."

Mr. Yuan, bah, how much wealth have you misappropriated from other people’s homes over the years by being so arrogant and hoarding? Every time something happens, you have to ask your uncle to clean up the aftermath. Will you have no money?

"I would rather buy some delicious and fun things for my aunt, such as rouge gouache, than make Prince Yi cheap." Yuan Mihai said deliberately.

The Yuan family has no children and has always loved him very much. When Yuan Mihai said this, she felt a little soft-hearted.

"We have to wait until your uncle comes back to discuss this matter."

But they definitely couldn't tell Zhao Rushu that Yuan Mihai and Zhao had a conflict with Rui Qi.

Yuan Mihai was afraid that Zhao Rushu would know about it, so he would be extorted money from Zhao and Rui.
