Chapter 143: The Unexpected Incident
"Well, 50,000 yuan, this number is OK, I'll take it for you now." Zhang Sheng said
"Hey, wait, Sanlang, are you? You didn't tell me anything? Is this time? Who else has participated?" Zhang Ling said
"Dad, how did you guess it?" Zhang Ye said
"Nonsense, if no one was in a thrust, then the Lin family was so good, how could it be so expensive?" Zhang Ling said
"Dad, I really can't hide anything from you. That's right. This time I asked Yang Yong for help. Otherwise, the Lin family wouldn't be able to pay such a high price." Zhang Sheng said
"Yang Yong? The one from Duke of Jin? How could Duke of Jin let his son do whatever he wants?" Zhang Ling said
"Dad, it's not just Yang Yong this time? There are also Yu Fang and He families, and all the three families have helped." Zhang Ye said
"What? Even the three families have got involved? Sanlang, tell me the truth, have the Duke of Jin seen you alone?" Zhang Ling said with a serious expression on his face.
"Yes, Dad, Duke Jin has indeed seen me. I was surprised when Yang Yong told me? It's just such a small matter. As for such a big fight? I just asked Yang Yong to help me raise a price." Zhang Sheng said
"I really saw you alone? What did the Duke of Jin tell you? Tell me truthfully." Zhang Ling said
"Dad, I didn't say anything. At first, my elder brother and I were a little surprised. Why did the Lin family pay such a high price to buy this mountain map?"
"So I asked my elder brother to inquire, but in the end I had no clue. In fact, when Duke Jin saw me, he mainly told me about this."
"He told me that there is a big secret in this creek and mountain map. It is about the Lin family, so they want to buy this creek and mountain map at all costs."
"And the Yang family already knows the secret. What he said is just right to choose someone through this secret."
"He also told his son that he must tell you about this after he comes back. His son is only aware of it. In addition, there are too many things, so I forgot it for a moment." Zhang Sheng said
"What? You forgot such a big thing? Think about it carefully and tell me what else has been left behind!"
"Ye'er, what's going on with this mountain map? Have you asked your mother for a while? Tell me clearly!" Zhang Ling said
"Dad, my son did ask my mother about this. My mother told me that this mountain map was given to my grandfather by Zhang Huaicheng of Shandong. He also said that this mountain map was originally from Zhou Rucheng, a former Shandong general, who was a former Shandong ginseng general." Zhang Ye said
"What? Why didn't you tell me earlier? It would be fine if your third brother did this. Why are you as confused as your third brother?" Zhang Ling said
"I said dad, what's wrong with me? This is said well, why are you scolding me?" Zhang Sheng muttered.
"Shut up! Think about what the Duke of Jin said. If you can't remember, just kneel down in the ancestral hall!" Zhang Ling said
"Dad, he doesn't blame me for this. My mother didn't let me tell you. She said that she sold so much money in Xishantu."
"I'm worried that after you know, I'll get money from us and go to places like Yanlai Pavilion, so..." Zhang Ye said
"What? I, Sheng'er, have you thought about it? Tell me quickly after you have thought about it!" Zhang Ling said
"I thought about it and thought about it. He said that Zhou Rucheng had hidden a hand, so he left behind this map of the stream and mountain, and the things were no longer in the map."
"What else do you want to form an alliance? You have too big a goal to meet. Let me contact him in the future. By the way, what about the Xiong family? It seems to be the Duke of Chu." Zhang Sheng said
The Xiong family? As soon as they contacted Zhou Rucheng, Zhang Ling immediately figured it out. It turned out that the Lin family was also involved in the incident back then.
Judging from the situation this time, the Lin family is not just involved, it should be the mastermind. It seems that the Yang family has known it for a long time, but what are they waiting for?
Wait, Zhang Ling suddenly remembered what the emperor summoned him to the palace today, and he was confused at that time.
Now that I think about it, the emperor must have thought that he had already known this secret, so he summoned himself into the palace and warned himself not to make a big deal.
Could it be that the emperor was instructed by the emperor behind his back? Yes, that's right, actually, if you think about it carefully, you can only be instructed by the emperor.
After all, the leaked marching route led to a crushing defeat in the war with the Liao Kingdom. In the end, such a big deal was just a hasty dealt with a few irrelevant people.
No matter how you think about it, it was nothing right. Now, it was only intentional by the emperor. The mastermind who leaked the marching route was the emperor.
When Zhang Ling thought of this, his face was solemn. He seemed to have accidentally stepped into a big vortex. At this time, he also figured out why the Yang family wanted to form an alliance with his own family.
Because of my current situation, I can only cooperate with them. Even if I choose another person, I may not have the best choice for them.
After all, once you cooperate with the Yang family, you will have your own family and Zhao family, plus Qi family, and the Yang family will have another Xiong family, so the power will be not weak.
I believe the Yang family is so, and they are sure that they will definitely agree, so they let their silly son, Saburo, spread the news.
After all, it is a benefit to join forces. It seems that we can only cooperate with them. Moreover, the Yang family is very thoughtful. After all, who could have thought that such important news was to be passed on by Saburo?
I'm afraid the emperor wouldn't have thought of it. At most, he thought that he had instructed his own Saburo to do something.
"Sheng'er, then Duke Jin didn't say anything, what are you going to do next?" Zhang Ling asked.
"Well, Duke Jin told me that he would go hunting next month. What kind of hunting do you think he is doing well?" Zhang Sheng said
"Hunting? Well, I know for my father. You must go there at that time. You can do whatever Duke Jin told you. OK, go back and bring me the 50,000 taels of silver." Zhang Ling said
"Oh, daddy, then I'll get it now." After Zhang Sheng said that, he left the study room and walked towards his own yard with a smile on his face, not knowing what he was thinking.
At this time, the father and son in the study fell into silence for a moment. It was Zhang Ling who broke the silence first and said, "How much do you know about what Sheng'er said? Have he told you?"
Zhang Ye, who heard his father's question, was very confused at this moment. He didn't know whether he should tell his father.
He was afraid that after he told his father, he would be scolded by his brother for being frightened, but he was worried that such an important thing would make his third brother unable to control it. After thinking about it, he decided to tell the truth to his father.
