Chapter 42: Disfigurement
The next morning, Lingfu.
"Ling Gongzi, what do you mean?" Wu Shiqi looked at Ling Hao, who was sitting opposite him, snoring and eating noodle soup, his expression was bitter and ashamed.
The bitter thing is that he is now a "dead man" in the eyes of others, and it is estimated that he will never be able to appear in public in the Yongcheng realm again, in that way, not only will he get into trouble, but even the Ling family, the merchants, and the Diao family will be very difficult to do, and it will be directly or indirectly dragged into the water by him because of some outrageous behaviors.
Therefore, Wu Shiqi can only stay in the Ling family for a period of time at the moment, and it is best not to go anywhere, in case the matter is revealed, it may only be a matter of minutes for the Miao family to liquidate their families.
In addition, Wang Xuanqing and Su Lie, together with Su Lie, had already sent the Flying Locusts to Xianyang as evidence in court, and they probably wouldn't be able to come back for a while, so they could only wait patiently to see the news.
"What's wrong? Wushiqi, seeing that you are worried, could it be that our Ling family is not well entertained, or is this noodle not delicious?"
"Young Master Ling, this is all like this...... Where can I still eat? Uskiy smiled bitterly.
"No matter how bad you are, food, wine and beauty, there is always something that can make you forget your troubles for the time being, and you should enjoy it when you should enjoy it, but one point, men can't always indulge in wine, which will collapse their bodies prematurely. Old God Ling Hao was talking.
"Ling Gongzi, my mother and sister are doing well in the merchant now, are they doing well?" Wu Shiqi asked again.
"Naturally, they're fine...... The three of us will protect your family, as long as you don't go out casually and cause us trouble, we will naturally be able to control the occasion. ”
"But I heard that the rumors of the Miao family's cruelty, unkindness, and untrustworthiness have been rife in Yongcheng recently, and the Miao family has been troubled by these rumors recently, so it is ......"
"Since you've heard about it, I might as well tell you a little bit of news, this rumor is not only spread in the Yongcheng realm, but also after Miss Wang and Su Lie arrive in Xianyang, they can naturally spread it again...... What do you think the Miao family should do with themselves when the time comes?" Ling Hao swallowed the last bite of noodles, took a sip of noodle soup, put down the noodle bowl, and pointed to Wushiqi's noodle bowl.
How could Wu Shiqi not understand Ling Hao's hint? At that moment, he had to pick up the chopsticks and eat the noodles, not to mention, the taste was really good.
While eating, Ling Hao said to him: "When the time comes, it's not just Yongcheng, if this kind of rumor spreads in Xianyang, the capital of my Great Qin, I'm afraid the situation will be different again, right?"
"What does Ling Gongzi mean...... the people will be suspicious of the Miao family?" Wu Shiqi said.
"That's right, now that you are a dead person in the eyes of the world, it is easy to find a corpse that looks like you, and the Diao family also gouged out the eyes of the corpse, and now there is no proof of death, and Miao Yu'er has never seen what you look like before, so naturally he will not continue to waste time on this kind of thing. ”
"He should be suspecting who is planting him now, and he will feel that it is our big and small families who are behind this situation, presumably, there will be a Miao family's fine work in our mansion soon, maybe...... Now there are people from the Miao family secretly monitoring our every move. ”
Miao Yu has this strength and this capital, as the biggest strong dragon in Yongcheng, the Miao family can be said to be a behemoth in Yongcheng, but this does not mean that the Miao family has no weaknesses at all.
First of all, Miao Yu himself is the kind of person who has an extremely strong control mentality, such a person will always force others to obey his orders and arrangements, and not allow others to contradict him, which will only cause him to be vigilant and suppressed.
In the various investigations against Miao Yu, some elders of the Ling family secretly reported to Ling Hao that Miao Yu was actually not the blood relatives of the Marquis of Yongcheng, but one of the collateral blood relatives, and suppressed the descendants through some improper means, and controlled the power of the Miao family.
What's more interesting is that in the investigation of other families in Yongcheng, many people more or less revealed a common message: Miao Yu's mother is just an ordinary singer, and the previous generation of Yongcheng Marquis inadvertently had a few times after getting drunk, and as a result, he was born, because of his mother's lowly status, he has suffered from the bullying and white eyes of everyone in the Miao family since he was a child.
But Ling Hao in line with the attitude of "how can you be as good as you want, but please be worthy of my heart" specifically poked at Miao Yu's sore spot, and rumors spread for a while, and now there are more and more versions in Yongcheng, some say that Miao Yu's heart is not right, the outside is wide and the inside is taboo, he is a stingy guy, and there are also said that Miao Yu is a wild seed, and some say that Miao Yu relied on external support to seize power.
For Ling Hao, the more fierce and nonsense this kind of rumor spreads, the safer they are, because the rumor itself is just a smoke bomb used to divert the topic and the attention of the Miao family, and the real bombshell is still waiting to explode, if this thing is handled well, Miao Yu will have to peel off his skin even if he does not die.
Right now, Miao Yu is probably already jumping at home, right? Even if this guy is moody, he should be angry now.
Ling Hao hoped that Miao Yu would have emotions, if Miao Yu had no emotions, it could only mean that his strategy had failed and failed to achieve the expected results, but if the Miao family did something excessive, then there would be more places for him to operate.
When the time comes, the three families of Ling Shang and Diao will take other wealthy families in Yongcheng to attack the Miao family together, and then divide the Miao family, and finally come to encroach on the Miao family, isn't it good?
Naturally, it is necessary to start from two aspects, one is to operate from the guidance of public opinion, and the other is to work hard from the investigation records of the previous major families.
Some of this information about the Miao family may be made up, and some may be spread with a little bit of authenticity, and it will naturally become a favorite topic of conversation among the parents and villagers in Yongcheng, after all, gossip news is a very popular type of information from ancient times to the present, not to mention the black history in the big family.
Ling Hao felt that he should use the shameless faces of the Western media in later generations to promote the "correctness" and "orientation" of these black materials of the Miao family.
Sure enough, as soon as this happened, the Miao family was a little panicked, and now it is estimated that they can't think of any good way to deal with it, so they can only shrink at home and be a turtle.
The mouth of the people is more important than the defense of Sichuan.
No matter how much the Miao family has hands and eyes, it is impossible for them to be stupid enough to send people to kill everyone in Yongcheng, right? If the Miao family dares to do this, then His Royal Highness the King of Qin and the officials of the Qin State will definitely click the Miao family in advance first, and then support a new Yongcheng family to replace the position of the Miao family.
Miao Yu is not a fool, although he can't do anything to the common people in Yongcheng, but he will definitely wonder if the major families in Yongcheng are secretly against him, and will naturally check one by one.
Therefore, while Ling Hao was spreading rumors, he also secretly conveyed a message to the major families: The finishing work must be done well, and don't let the Miao family catch it.
All of a sudden, in the homes of wealthy families of all sizes, the layoffs that should be laid off, the wages that should be paid, the wages that should be paid, the eats, drinks, and plays, making a posture of indifference, and the house is also very clean, so that the Miao family can't catch it at all.
As one of the local big families in Yongcheng, the Ling family naturally can't avoid the investigation, and it is estimated that it will only be these two days, so he still has to solve the problem of Wushiqi.
"Wushiqi, do you want to protect your family?" Ling Hao changed his words.
"What does Ling Gongzi mean?"
"If you don't want to be recognized in the future, I'm afraid there is only one way to disfigure. Ling Hao sat down and said to him very seriously.
"Disfigured?" Uskie was taken aback.
"Yes, I would like to ask your opinion now, are you willing to be disfigured for the sake of your mother and sister's safety?"
"I ......"
"If you haven't thought about it, I won't force you now, you can think about it carefully in my study, and tomorrow, I will ask for your reply. Ling Hao got up and walked out.
"Your meal will be brought to you in a few hours, we don't have much time, you have to make a decision quickly. ”
"Yes......".
Ling Hao left the study, leaving Wu Shiqi sitting alone in the study, his expression bitter and tangled.
Is there any other way for me to go?
