Chapter 133 Blackmailing money

Lord Zhao really couldn't bear to look at his daughter. She was so stupid.

At first, Lord Zhao thought it was the thief Xiao, but he didn't know that Zhou Chengxi was hiding in his house. He lured Fu Hongxuan over to arrest him, and then let An Tian witness the scene to catch the Zhao family.

Unexpectedly, it turned out to be the grudge between his daughter and An Tian, which An Tian seized on and refused to give in.

To be honest, Lord Zhao was still a little afraid of An Tian. This woman was indeed a ruthless character. She wiped out Mengchangjun's entire family without blinking an eye. The most outrageous thing was that she was able to escape unscathed.

After all, Lord Zhao has been in the officialdom for so many years. Since the thief Xiao was not involved in this matter, there is still room for maneuver.

Lord Zhao's eyes turned cold as he said, "Manager An, please leave some room for maneuver. Even if you have Elder Xiao's support, my Zhao family is not easy to manipulate."

An Tian said with a half-smile, "It seems that Lord Zhao really doesn't understand his own daughter."

An Tian calmly walked to the stone table, took a sip of tea from the cup, and said slowly: "There is one thing I admit, it is indeed Mengchangjun who was wronged by me."

These words were earth-shattering, and Lord Zhao opened his mouth in surprise.

No? Aren't they talking about the crime of harboring a criminal?

Why is the Mengchangjun case suddenly involved again?

And why did you reveal yourself?

Aren't you afraid of being thrown into jail again?

But with a little thought, you will know why An Tian was so confident. In the case of Mengchangjun, An Tian was just a fuse.

Mengchangjun was not convicted because of An Tian's accusation. Even without An Tian's testimony, Mengchangjun would still be unforgivable.

Moreover, Mengchangjun's entire family was exterminated and the case was already decided. Unless Mengchangjun could come back to life and say that An Tian was falsely accused, no one could overturn the verdict.

An Tian continued as if discussing something quite ordinary: "Mengchangjun was blocking my path, so he had to be eliminated. Coincidentally, he was also at that banquet, so I took the opportunity to say it was his doing to get away with it."

At this moment, Lord Zhao was really a little scared. This woman would do anything to achieve her goals.

Lord Zhao suddenly thought of a terrible possibility. If An Tian did not lie and Mengchangjun was just a scapegoat, then who was it that caused An Tian to lose his innocence and be expelled from his home?

Lord Zhao turned his neck stiffly and looked at Zhao Wanqing, who was sitting on the ground with her hands covering her face and crying.

Lord Zhao asked with rapid breathing, "Did you interfere in this matter?"

Zhao Wanqing naturally couldn't admit it and kept saying that An Tian was slandering her.

An Tian ignored Zhao Wanqing's hysterics and said lightly, "I don't need to prove that it was you who did it. You can deny it, but I will do it."

Zhao Wanqing's eyes were full of disbelief. An Tian was really crazy and she wanted to drag the Zhao family to be buried with her.

Suddenly, Zhao Wanqing seemed to have grasped something and shouted, "That incident has nothing to do with me. It was all done by An Qing. If you want revenge, go find An..."

Zhao Wanqing turned around to look for An Qing, then she remembered that after Zhou Chengxi was captured and the scene was under control, those noble ladies fled for fear of being involved in these things.

Fu Hongxuan did not stop them. Everyone had run away long before Lord Zhao arrived.

An Tian smiled gently and said, "Don't worry, An Qing is not much worse than you. I won't let any of them go."

Zhao Wanqing looked at the madness in An Tian's eyes, but still maintained a gentle smile on her face, giving people a strong sense of disconnection.

At this moment, Zhao Wanqing clearly realized that An Tian was a complete lunatic.

Lord Zhao felt cold all over. His daughter had been spoiled since she was a child and had high standards. It was impossible for her to become friends with An Tian, a mere businessman.

Since he is not a friend, yet he is willing to spend thousands of taels of silver to invite him to his house, Lord Zhao would not believe it unless he has the intention to insult and play with him.

It would be fine if he was arrogant and bullied some slaves or the daughters of minor officials, but now he even dared to provoke this crazy woman An Tian. He must think his life is too long.

Lord Zhao could only suppress his emotions and clean up Zhao Wanqing's mess. He had no choice but to clean it up. An Tian obviously wanted to settle accounts with the Zhao family as well. He asked, "What do you want?"

A hint of murderous intent flashed in Lord Zhao's eyes. If An Tian wanted to drag the Zhao family to death with him, even if he would be criticized, he would never let An Tian leave the Zhao family alive.

An Tian put down the cup he had been playing with and said, "Of course it's silver."

"You! Cough... cough..." Lord Zhao was shocked by the answer and was so anxious that he couldn't breathe.

Is this something that can be solved with money?

This is actually something that can be solved with money!

This woman was threatening and going crazy just to extort money from his family?

Lord Zhao felt that today had been a very turbulent time. He asked cautiously, "How much do you want?"

An Tian beckoned He Yuzhen, who immediately stepped forward to quote the price: "The errand fee is one thousand taels of silver, and the thirty bottles of pure dew that were smashed will be charged one thousand taels per bottle, for a total of thirty-one thousand taels of silver."

Although Lord Zhao felt it was a bit expensive, this amount of money was not enough to break a bone, and he was just about to nod in agreement.

Then An Tian said, "This is the money to be paid to Xueyue Tower as compensation. As for mine..."

An Tian suddenly paused as she spoke, looking Zhao Wanqing up and down, and said in the calmest voice possible, "I heard that Miss Zhao is getting married soon."

When Lord Zhao heard this, his heart shuddered instantly.

All I heard was An Tian saying with a smile: "I want Miss Zhao's dowry, all of it."

Zhao Wanqing rushed forward, furious: "An Tian, you bitch, it was you who wanted to seduce Brother Ziheng..."

Lord Zhao quickly stopped Zhao Wanqing: "Wanqing, step back!"

An Tian felt that this was not enough and added, "Including that priceless wedding dress."

When Zhao Wanqing heard this, her face turned pale instantly. She knew what this meant: "Father, I...I can't lose those..."

Zhao Wanqing was really panicked now. She was going to get married in a few days. If she didn't have a dowry, how would she hold her head up high in her husband's family in the future?

If such a scandal really happened, she might not even be able to keep her marriage.

Then her life would be ruined.

Just as Lord Zhao was hesitating, An Tian didn't say anything, but just watched quietly.

It's as if you have to choose between the Zhao family and Zhao Wanqing, and you can only choose one.

Lord Zhao gritted his teeth and said cruelly, "Okay, I'll carry the dowry over later."

An Tian got the result he wanted, and he stood up decisively and said, "Master Zhao really knows how to deal with current affairs."

"I'll send someone over to bring the dowry later. I remember Miss Zhao just said she had a dowry that would last for ten miles. If it's missing, I'll go to the government office and make a scene!"

Lord Zhao...is it too late to admit that you were bragging?

Ten Miles of Red Makeup, this is going to suck away most of the blood of the Zhao family.

Looking at An Tian's departing back, Zhao Wanqing knew that she was finished!

It’s really over!
