Even ants are greedy for life, let alone a living person. Ruan E stared at the small porcelain bottle, as if he had seen a ghost, shaking his head like a rattle.

"No, I won't drink!"

The other party smiled, "Mr. Ruan, can you avoid it if you don't drink it?"

Ruan E rolled his eyelids and asked fiercely: "You, what do you mean?"

"Haha, Lord Ruan, make the words clear." The visitor walked on the ground with his hands behind his back and said, "The first batch of goods from the Maritime Bureau were robbed. Tang Yi would not bear this charge, he would definitely push him to Lord Ruan."

Ruan E's lips trembled and said in horror: "I just ordered the voyage, I, sin, will not die."

The visitor laughed strangely, full of contempt, and sneered: "Mr. Ruan, as the saying goes, there is no reason to be a crime, not to mention that you insist on ordering to go to sea and imprisoned Tang Yi. Now that the things have been robbed, you say it has nothing to do with you, will the superior believe it?" He leaned closer to Ruan E and said in a grim manner: "Mr. Ruan, if you can arrest Tang Yi for being accused of being a Japanese, Tang Yi will not hold you a big hat with your backhand? I can remind you only one."

"Who..." Ruan E's lips trembled, and his voice changed.

"Who else? Zhao Wenhua, the Minister of Personnel who died last year, was impeached by the censors, saying that he had greedy for tens of millions of taels of silver. Zhao Wenhua died in a daze. It was not enough to confiscate his family. All his descendants had debts and could not pay them back. If you lost more than three million taels of goods, if His Majesty also counted them on your head, it would be a disaster for your wife, sons, and grandchildren. Lord Ruan, do you bear it?"

Ruan E was frightened by the saying. The court was eager to see the silver in the market, and his heart was like charcoal. He knew that he had been robbed and he would definitely be held accountable...

"Oh, does Ruan really want to harm his family?"

Suddenly, Ruan E was angry and stood up suddenly, pointing at the person who came and cursed: "It was you who caused me. You encouraged me to cause trouble for Tang Yi and encouraged me to let go. Everything was done by you. Now, I won't tell the truth. I don't think Tang Yi is going to mess with me, but you, you want me to die!"

The visitor sneered at the sky, "It's not too stupid, Lord Ruan. You know how many methods we have. As long as you give a memorial to apologize, take the blame, and commit suicide by taking poison, someone will protect your family and let them have food and clothing. If you don't agree, you can't survive anyway, and your family will be implicated. I think you're as smart as Lord Ruan, you must have an idea. I'll leave the medicine for you and say goodbye!"

Ruan E wanted to say a few more words, but the other party didn't give him time at all.

There was only one person left in the study again. After saying the damage was far beyond Tang Yi and those businessmen. It was the seven surnames who encouraged him and manipulated him, and they reached the point where they are now.

When the disaster came, the seven surnames did not protect him. On the contrary, they were worried that he would not die and sent the medicine.

The birds are gone, the good bows are hidden. The cunning rabbits die, and the lackeys are cooked!

Nothing is more realistic than this.

After twenty years of hard study, the ups and downs of officialdom for more than ten years, this result was achieved. No matter how strong his heart was, he could not bear it. Ruan E burst into tears and howled loudly.

After crying for a while, Ruan E noticed the small bottle on the table. He reached out and grabbed it. As he got closer and closer, just as his fingers touched it, it seemed like an electric current was wandering around his body, making Ruan E burnt and blurry.

He really doesn't look like he dies, but does he still have a way out?

Even if Tang Yi didn't care about personal grievances, in order to escape from the crime, he had to use him as a shield. The seven surnames abandoned him at this time.

The two major forces were like two millstones on the upper and lower sides. They had already started to rotate. He just soaked soybeans, stuffed them into the ground eyes, and waited for soy milk to come out from below!

If you don’t die now, you will die in the future. If you don’t take poison, you will be chopped off your head and implicated your family.

Since there is no way out, it is better to die!

Thinking of this, Ruan E suddenly grabbed the porcelain bottle, tore open the seal, raised his neck, and poured it in one mouthful. When the medicine was drunk, Ruan E fell straight to the ground.

He felt his soul fly up, half-hanging in the air, looking at his dirty corpse, as if crying and laughing.

At this moment, he really understood what Tang Yi said, as long as he was not a chess player, let alone the governor, even the Grand Secretary of the Shangshu, he would be sacrificed.

Unfortunately, from the very beginning, the seven surnames understood that they fought hard with Tang Yi, and it was difficult to deal with Tang Yi's cunning. They had no choice but to adopt a curved approach to saving the country.

That is to make the Maritime Bureau feel black and black.

The first business was lost, and another governor was involved. In any case, it was a big deal. Those officials who opposed the opening of the sea would definitely take the opportunity to counterattack and fight back. Tang Yi's situation would be very difficult at that time.

Even if he can hold on, his reputation will be damaged.

After all, the seven surnames have been rampant in the southeast for a hundred years and have accumulated a lot of money. They have met too many evil people, but in the end, they have only laughed to the end.

So what can Tang Yi be? If you have the ability, keep playing and see who is the real winner!

Although Ruan E's war between the Seven Majors and Tang Yi was greater than Tang Yi's official position, unfortunately, he was just a bloody trick used by the Seven Majors to discredit the Shibosi.

Although Ruan E is reluctant to admit it, the truth is so cruel.

He really regretted that if he had another choice, he would not have wade into the muddy waters and be his chief official quietly. But it was too late. He felt that his soul was becoming more and more erratic and dispersed, leaving only a little remaining consciousness, as if a little candlelight in front of the wind would be disillusioned at any time.

At this moment, the door of the study was suddenly washed open, and someone ran in frantically. Seeing Ruan E lying on the ground, he turned around quickly. After a while, he brought a large pot of turmeric, pried open Ruan E's mouth, and poured him on.

Ruan E's last little consciousness was drowned in the stench.

Tang Yi remembers that in many costume dramas, the crane head is a remarkable thing. As long as you take it, people will soon bleed and die miserably.

In fact, the crane head red, that is, arsenic, does not occur so quickly. It usually takes several minutes to several hours before the symptoms of poisoning occur.

When Ruan E was taking the poison, a group of gentry came to see him and asked about compensation. The master couldn't stop him, so he had to run to Ruan E's room. When he saw Ruan E lying on the ground, holding a small porcelain bottle in his hand, they almost scared to death. The governor was finished, and only Tang Yi had the highest official position left. They hurried to the cross-yard.

Tang Yi wished Ruan E would die, but the problem was that if he was poisoned to death, would he have to clean up such a big mess?

Tang Yi couldn't continue to pretend that he was fine, so he took his master to find Ruan E. Tang Yi didn't have much experience, but he understood that taking poison would cause vomiting. As long as he vomited out the poisonous thing, his life would be saved.

The yamen run to the toilet and brought the manure water. A whole basin was filled with Ruan E. Soon he vomited loudly, and the things he vomited were all black.

Without Tang Yi's command, the yamen runners continued to pour it, and they couldn't spit it out. They brought clean water and poured it into their stomachs. Then they used feces and repeated it over and over again. After more than half an hour, Ruan E's lips, cheeks, tongue, and throat were all bleeding, and the spit out turned into a clear color.

Tang Yi asked someone to prepare a large bowl of honey water to fill Ruan E, which could clean the stomach and intestines. Then he brought a large pot of licorice and mung bean soup and added five egg whites, which is said to have a detoxification effect.

After a whole afternoon of struggle, Ruan E finally saved his life and came back, but he didn't move, just like a rotten wood, and no one could speak.

"Sir, are you stupid when you think about Zhongcheng?" the master asked in surprise.

Tang Yi waved his hand, "You all retreat."

All these people were sent away, and Tang Yi pulled over a chair and sat opposite Ruan E.

"Pretending in front of others, what else do you pretend in front of me!"

Ruan E was still stunned, but his pupils moved slightly.

"Mr. Ruan, you are begging for death. Now you want to pretend to be crazy, but have you ever thought about it? Maybe there is still a way out, it depends on whether you are willing to leave."

Ruan E didn't answer, but the ups and downs in his chest became obviously stronger. Tang Yi saw it and chuckled again, "Mr. Ruan, you probably think that I, Tang Yi, will definitely put you in trouble and push you to the gates of hell! You are very wrong to think so. I want to maintain the operation of the Maritime Bureau and make the Maritime Bureau grow and grow. Killing a governor from the beginning will only make the population a reality. Even if I hate you, I will not let you die easily. I am not that stupid."

These words were really Tang Yi's heartfelt words. Ruan E's throat moved and he purred with difficulty, "He, they, won't, let go, let go, mine."

After saying this, sweat was pouring on his forehead. Ruan E's face was so blue that he was about to faint at any time.

"Mr. Ruan, don't care about the seven surnames. The most urgent task is to fill the gap in the money. As long as it can be filled, your life will be saved." Tang Yi suddenly approached and whispered: "Mr. Ruan, do you think there are people who are richer than the seven surnames? As long as they search their homes and take out the money to fill the holes, you will have a way out."

Hearing this, Ruan E's body suddenly twitched sharply and coughed hard, as if he was about to cough out the leaves of his lungs. Tang Yi said with contempt: "Will people who are not afraid of even death be afraid of the Seven Major Clans? How can they do anything to you? Isn't it just a disaster for my wife and children and implicate my family? You think I am a vegetarian, and tell you the truth, Zhou Shuo, the seventh princess of the Jinyiwei, has sent someone to your home. Huizhou is under the rule of Nanzhili, and it is my territory of Tang Yi. If the Seven Major Clans want to stir up the wind and rain, it is a dream." Tang Yi cursed with regret: "Mr. Ruan, ask yourself, does Tang Yi have something to be sorry for you? Instead, you have provoked again and again. However, for the sake of the friendship between the countryside, I am willing to give you a chance, don't miss it!"

Ruan E's eyes turned and said with difficulty: "Tang, Lord Tang, they are powerful, I, I'm afraid..."

"Hahaha, are they powerful, but others' power smaller? This time the goods are lost, the gentry and tribe in the southeast will suffer losses. They have already hated the seven major surnames to death. You have copied the seven major surnames and atone for your sins. There are only benefits and no harm. Lord Ruan, what else do you have to hesitate?" Tang Yi said with a smile. (To be continued.)
