Chapter 656 Breaking the game (1)
In the afternoon, Li Ling, who had been staying in the inn these days, suddenly felt very worried and went out to the Zhao family. However, he planned to persuade the other party in person. Many of his subordinates were somewhat opposed to his decision, but he could not resist the adult's insistence, so he could only go this trip with him.
When they came to the gate of Zhao's family, they found that the entire Zhao family was in chaos today. Someone was calling Zhao Fan's name outside the courtyard. Several women cried when they shouted this.
The Zhao family is a poor family, and when Zhao Guang comes, there is only one seedling. Now that the father is dead, even if even the only son has something wrong, the widowed mother in the family will not be able to survive.
"What's going on? Is anyone in your family missing?" Seeing this, Li Ling walked forward with concern and grabbed a man who looked like a servant and asked.
This man was already panicked and didn't even look at their appearance carefully, so he said casually: "Our young master is gone. If you see my young master, please tell us. If you can find it, you will thank you very much..."
As he was talking, the housekeeper at home had recognized their identities, and then he became suspicious. He rushed over, grabbed one of the people's arms, and shouted: "Did you do it? Hey, where did you hide my young master?"
This loud scream not only attracted more people from the Zhao family, but even the neighbors nearby came over and watched with suspicion. At this time, the female family in the family was also alarmed, and a woman in a mourning uniform rushed over like crazy, directly grabbed Li Ling's sleeve and shouted: "Don't give me my child back, return my sails to me..." The screams were sharp and shrill, which scared the guards around her, and then they remembered to protect the adults and wanted to push people away.
Seeing this, Li Ling stopped their behavior and let herself be pulled by her, and said calmly: "Please calm down, this lady, I just arrived in front of your house, I don't know what happened to your house, and it's useless to hold me. If you have anything to say, let's talk slowly, I, Li Ling, will definitely not refuse if I can help you."
"You... are you telling the truth?" Or was Li Ling's demeanor trusting her, or if a drowning person grabbed a life-saving straw and refused to let go. Anyway, the woman was really staring at Li Ling at this time. After seeing Li Lingzheng's key point, she actually nodded and said, "Then, then you go in and talk..."
Although the manager and some other people in the family felt something was wrong, it was not easy to stop him at this time, so they could only welcome Li Ling and others into the house with some confusion. Of course, this change also fell into the eyes of the government office who had been following him, and immediately rushed back to the office to report.
Li Ling walked into Zhao's house smoothly and sat down in the living room. Then he looked at the butler who was obviously wary of them and said, "What did you say just now? He actually asked us to ask you, your young master?"
"Isn't it yours? I remember you, and you, all these two days, I have always been to talk nonsense!" The housekeeper said excitedly, "And when we refused to pay attention, he stole our young master, hoping to force our Zhao family to sue the government office..."
His words made the other men and women in the family panic, and the woman's face changed drastically. Then she understood what the people who came over and were invited into the house were from. She immediately stuttered and said, "If you... if you hand over my child, I will not pursue anything. You said, I will give you as much money as you want..."
"Haha..." Her words made Li Ling laugh, and she couldn't help but shake her head and said, "Mrs. Zhao, you really are hard to deal with. Do you think that if you have any brothers in this position, do you care about that little money? We came to Yingzhou to keep coming to your house for the sake of the court's affairs, to give your dead husband Zhao Guang justice."
As he said that, he stared at the other party again: "Don't you really think he died because of an accidental fire fighting, did you? Haven't you ever thought about clearing his grievances?"
"You... why can't I understand what you said? My husband died when he was working in the yamen. This is something that everyone knows. There is nothing, and other conspiracy secrets!" Mrs. Zhao was calm at this time, "As for the so-called big thing this adult is, I, a woman, don't know. I only care about my child, and he suddenly disappeared today. If the adult is a pitiful little girl, please return my child to us."
"Yes, please pity my Zhao family and return our young master to us..." The housekeeper also spoke at the right time, and then the other Zhao family members. Although their attitude this time was much softer than before, the meaning was still the same, that was, he did not recognize the hidden truth of Zhao Guang's death.
The smile on Li Ling's face finally disappeared, and his eyes swept across everyone around him: "It seems that you are really not seeing the Yellow River. Do you really think this is my official targeting you, and want to use these despicable tricks to force you to tell the truth to me?"
"Isn't it?" the housekeeper plucked up the courage to ask back.
"Bold!" Geng Qi, who was beside him, immediately scolded him, and then Li Ling waved his hand and waved him back. He looked at the family calmly without any anger: "If I really intend to use such means to force you, I don't have to spend these days with you. I have said that everything I did is to help you find the truth and seek justice."
Looking at his righteous and righteous look, thinking about their gentle performance over the past few days compared to the government officials, both the masters and slaves of the Zhao family showed a deep expression of agreement, but they believed this statement.
"Originally, I came here today to make a last effort, thinking about whether I could convince you to tell the truth again. After all, I have been in Yingzhou for some time, and my chores are extremely heavy and I can't be delayed for too long. If you don't want to cooperate, you can only give up." Seeing this, Li Ling continued, "But unexpectedly, something happened in your family. I'm going to tell you, this is exactly what I worry about."
"Big... Sir, what do you mean?" The butler asked uneasyly, saying that this was a sign of becoming more and more confident in the other party.
Li Ling glanced at him, his lips curled slightly, and said sarcastically: "Is this an unknown thing? If he can kill your male master, he may attack your young master. I really think he is so easy to talk to and can let you control your own handle without making arrangements?
"There was no action before, but because I was worried that I was still there. But he had already predicted that I would leave, so he started to make some moves today. Now he is just kidnapped a child. Who knows what kind of changes will happen to your Zhao family and the Qian family after I actually leave?"
These words were heartbroken, but they were quite reasonable. Mrs. Zhao and the housekeeper's faces turned pale. The former was worried about the safety of their children, while the latter cared more about themselves. The problem was that even if he wanted to leave at this time, he would probably not be able to escape the control of the government unless...
"Sir, you must save my child. My husband and I have only one child. If he... has a good life, I will not be alive..." Mrs. Zhao was completely confused. She knelt down immediately and wanted to kowtow and beg.
Seeing this, Li Ling quickly stood up and helped him: "Mrs. Zhao doesn't have to do this, get up and talk. I have been saying that I stayed in Yingzhou to help you. Since something happened at your home, I will help you. But before that, I also hope you understand something. Now, not only do you want me to save me, but I also want your help, and I want you to tell me the truth! How did Zhao Guang die, and why did he end up like this?"
"This..." Mrs. Zhao was obviously hesitant, her eyes lowered and she did not dare to face Li Ling.
Seeing her acting like this, Li Ling had a hint of anger in her eyebrows: "At this point, you still refuse to tell the truth and have fantasies about some people, so I can't help you. Medicine will not kill you, and Buddha will save those who are destined to be, so I can only help those who want to save themselves." As he said that, he suddenly stood up and wanted to leave.
His move immediately scared the Zhao family. Mrs. Zhao hesitated for a moment and finally bit her teeth and shouted: "Sir, please go slowly. The little woman has something to say."
Li Ling's eyes flashed imperceptibly, and he stopped and his tone was still stiff: "Say, what do you know?"
"Please follow me there." Mrs. Zhao did not rush to speak, but got up and walked towards the yard next to her. Li Ling nodded and followed, while the guards did not dare to relax and followed closely.
The few people walked through a narrow door together and came to the Zhao family's kitchen. Mrs. Zhao actually went straight to the woodshed, waved her hand and sent them to wait in front of her. Then she entered the dilapidated woodshed in everyone's surprised eyes, and then squatted in front of a smoky brick wall. She took out a brick in a few strokes, and then took out a few pieces of paper from the hole.
When he came to the kitchen, especially when he saw the other party entering the inconspicuous woodshed, the light in Li Ling's eyes became even more intense, because he had guessed that what he wanted was here. It seemed that Zhao Guang was really cautious and had kept a backup plan early in the morning. Perhaps only his wife knew that he had hidden the things here in the whole family.
At this time, Mrs. Zhao had already delivered a few pages of light and written a lot of words to Li Ling, and her face was also full of solemnity: "Sir, this is something that my husband hid before the accident. He said that what he wrote on the top was of great importance and might make my entire Zhao family disappear... The little woman did not dare to take it out, but now... for my Fan'er, she can only take one risk. I hope that the adult can really do what she says!"
