Chapter 130: Denying Death
Ling Yi was preparing to return to Ling's Mansion with five servants.
Gong Xiru, who had been watching the excitement from the side, stepped forward and said, "How many people are also brought?" β
Ling Yi thought for a moment: "Where are the people?" β
Gong Xiru glanced at Gong Sheng, who clapped his hands, and the people wearing the clothes of the Gong family came up with seven or eight gray-faced people.
Ling Yi's eyes swept over the people one by one, and finally pointed to one of them: "Just take him with you." β
Weaving Fan hurriedly ordered two able-bodied men to take the other one up.
"Today's matter, it's still the same sentence, when I'm done, thank you." Ling Yi smiled slightly.
Gong Xiru was silent for a moment, then hummed, turned around and left with his own people.
"Miss, let's go back like this?" The weaving fan is a little uncertain, and this group of people is going back in a big way, but I am afraid that the momentum is not small.
Ling Yi nodded affirmatively: "I have to let them confess in front of my father and grandmother." β
The movement on the dock was not small, and the Lan family also sent people to watch it there early in the morning, so he knew very well what was happening at the dock.
"Old lady, the eldest lady has brought someone and asks to see her outside."
Lan nodded: "Let her in, send someone to inform Uncle Zhong, Fusheng mainly wants to persuade Uncle Zhong." β
The Cheng clan sent someone to inform Ling Shandao, and he led Ling Yi into the house.
Except for the weaving fan, the rest of the people were waiting outside.
Ling Shandao hurriedly came to Lan Yuan, and saw that there were so many people surrounded in front of the Lan family, and he didn't know what was going on, so he hurriedly walked into the house.
"Fatherβ" Ling Yi stood up and saluted.
Ling Shandao waved his hand and motioned for her to sit down, before he asked Xiang Lan, "Mother." What's going on out there? β
"Listen to the floating life." Ran's Road.
Ling Yi responded and told Ling Shandao and Lan the truth again, and finally called in the witnesses outside. Let Lan ask them one by one.
Although Ling Shandao was prepared, he never expected that things would be like this, Zou Quan and Zou Jian, the two brothers, he always thought they were capable and honest people.
"Master, old lady--Uncle Zou and Second Master Zou ask to see outside." The next person reports.
Ling Shandao didn't say anything, and he didn't know whether to see it or not.
Ling Yi looked at Lan and said, "Grandmother, it's better to let them in and listen to what they have to say." β
Lan didn't like it in his heart. In the end, I agreed.
Zou Quan wiped the blood on the corners of his mouth and forehead, and asked Zou Jiandao, "How is it, does it look like it?" β
Zou Jian shook his fist, which was still faintly painful. Hurriedly nodded: "Like, like, like, what you look like now." How miserable it is, how miserable it is. β
Zou Quan was satisfied and wanted to smile. Pulling the corners of his mouth, he grinned in pain.
The maid hurriedly came to the two: "The old lady invites the two of you in." β
Zou Quan walked in front, and Zou Jian followed.
As soon as the two entered the door, Zou Quan knelt down first, his head banging on the ground.
Zou Jian had no choice but to kneel down and kowtow.
Lan knew the thoughts of these two people, but he didn't stop them, waiting for Zou Quan to take the initiative to stop. She said with a cold face: "What are you still doing?" β
Zou Quan's expression was sad, and he choked up: "Old lady." We two brothers have come to plead guilty, and ask the old lady to punish us severely, otherwise we will kneel here and die. β
Zou Jian helped: "Old lady, everything on the dock is caused by me, please punish the old lady." β
The two sang and harmonized, and they seemed to reflect well.
Lan didn't eat this, and still said coldly: "Hehe, although I am an old woman, I can only stay in this small courtyard all day long, but if something happens outside, I can't escape my eyes."
But tell me, what is wrong with you? β
Zou Quan sighed, "The old lady knows everything and must know what happened at the dock, and it's our fault when it comes to it."
If we hadn't negotiated the price with Boss Yun, he wouldn't have been resentful because of our temporary change of hexagram, let alone openly framed us.
It doesn't matter if he frames me, but it's really hateful for him to provoke the relationship between the Ling and Zou families.
Madame, though I don't know which ones you have listened to? But those are all nonsense, and they are all this drama that Boss Yun found someone to play in order to take revenge on our two brothers.
You see, he hit me on the face and on the mouth. β
Ling Yi sneered: "Then what do you mean, is Zou Jian acting with Boss Yun at the dock, and then came to frame you?" I think your brothers have a very good relationship, how did you get it like a deep hatred. β
Zou Jian hurriedly explained: "I didn't go to the dock, I was drinking in the Zuifeng Building this morning, if the eldest lady doesn't believe it, you can send someone to the Zuifeng Lou immediately, they all know, I haven't left the room there for a single step." β
"Drunken Wind Building-" Ling Yi muttered to herself, and suddenly asked the vendor caught by Gong Xiru, "Are you working in Drunken Wind Building?" β
The peddler looked at Zou Jian timidly and didn't speak for a while.
Ling Yi smiled slightly, her voice full of temptation: "If you tell the truth, I can save you from prison." β
The peddler glanced at Zou Jian and nodded slowly: "Yes." β
"And you saw him this morning?" Ling Yi asked again.
The peddler shook his head: "I haven't seen the little one." β
Zou Jian stood up angrily, pointed at the latter and said, "You dead thing, you dare to talk nonsense, I'm not in the Drunken Wind Building, how do you know?" β
The peddler was too frightened to look up, panicking.
Ling Yi comforted him and said, "What are you afraid of, this is the Ling Mansion, what can outsiders do to you?" I remember that you are the running hall of the Drunken Wind Building, don't worry, without the work of the Drunken Wind Building, you will go to the Eight Sound Country to do things. β
The peddler's eyes lit up, and he couldn't help asking, "Really?" Can the little one really go to the country of Eight Sounds to do things? β
"As long as you tell the truth, we will not embarrass you." Ling Yi affirmed.
The interests made the hawker forget to be afraid, he was an errand boy in a restaurant before, and anyone could yell at him, but later he was found by the two brothers Zou Quan, saying that they were helping them order, and they could get him extra money, so he agreed.
"The small one said, the small one said everything, the small one was responsible for ordering for Uncle Zou and Zou Erye, and then they sent it to Liang Guo, that is, the cloud boss at the dock to pick up the goods, and Uncle Zou took a penny of silver to the small one every time-"
Zou Quan's eyes glared at him sharply, "Hugh has to frame us, saying, how much money did Boss Yun give you to let you frame us two brothers like this." β
The peddler argued: "What the little one said is true. β
"What about the evidence, since you can say that there must be evidence, then show the evidence to everyone." Zou Quan asked.
The peddler was embarrassed, he used it every time he took the money, where was the evidence, and no one else knew about it, how to testify.
"I can't prove it." Zou Quan snorted coldly: "Since there is no evidence, then you are framed." β
He turned to Lan and said respectfully: "Old lady, please don't listen to the words of these villains, Boss Yun did not hesitate to find these people to frame me in order to provoke our relationship, unless I come up with evidence, I can't admit it." β
Lan knew that he was just relying on the lack of substantial evidence to deny it, and now it depends on when Boss Yun's handwritten letter will be delivered.
There is no point in talking about this matter further, and Lan Shirang can only let everyone retreat.
After only his own family was left in the house, Ling Yicai said: "Grandmother, Zou Quan is just dying, once the evidence is in hand, he can't push it away anyway, and we can also justifiably strip him of his position as a manager." β
Lan let out a long sigh and leaned back weakly in his chair.
Cheng pinched her shoulders and beat her back.
Ling Shandao also rubbed his aching head for a long time before he said slowly: "Fusheng, it's not too early, you go back first, let my grandmother rest for a while, I still have some government affairs to deal with." β
Ling Yi knew that it was still a little difficult for the two of them to accept all of this immediately, so she got up and gave the two of them a blessing, "Fusheng retires." β
Back in the Lan Pavilion, the weaving fan vented the smile that he had been holding back, clapping his hands and jumping in the room, "Miss, we won this battle beautifully."
Look, the Zou family can't raise their heads in Beijing next, even if Zou Batian is a fourth-grade official, I think he wasn't a seventh-grade sesame official at the beginning, if it wasn't for the Ling family, their Zou family would be able to climb so fast? Something ungrateful. β
Seeing that she had changed from elated to angry, Ling Yi hurriedly persuaded: "There is nothing wrong - Weaving Yu, the road guards are back?" β
Ori Yu nodded and shook his head: "I came back early in the morning, but I went out again, I don't know where to go-"
"Sister Zhiyu called me, it is the end of the world, and I will arrive immediately." Lu Xiaotian jumped into the house from the window with a grin.
Weaving Yu's face was anxious, and he dared to go in and out in broad daylight, and hurriedly looked out of the window.
I didn't see anyone passing by, so I breathed a sigh of relief, and reproached: "You really dare to do anything, if people find out that you are in and out of the eldest lady's room, you are not enough to atone for your sins." β
Lu Xiaotian nodded admittedly: "Yes, yes, next time I won't go through the window, go to the roof." β
"You-" Zhi Yu was amused and helpless, and pushed him: "Don't hurry up, the eldest lady has something to do with you." β
Lu Xiaotian put away his smile and walked up to Ling Yi seriously: "What do you want from the eldest lady?" β
"Zou Quan will definitely not just let Boss Yun return to Liang Kingdom, you quickly catch up with Boss Yun, secretly protect him to return to China, and that handwritten letter, you have to get it in your hand no matter what."
"It's not a problem, but how can Rentang explain it?"
"Don't worry here, I'll talk about it." Ling Yi urged: "Boss Yun is taking the waterway, you find a small boat to catch up, you have to drive as much as possible, I'm afraid that Zou Quan and they have already taken action." β
Lu Xiaotian knew that the time was urgent, "Then I'll go now." β
After taking two steps, he turned back to Weaving Feather and smiled, "Sister Weaving Feather should remember to miss me." β
Zhi Yu's face turned red, and he glanced at him with disgust: "Go quickly, I will ignore you for the rest of my life if I delay Miss's business." β
Lu Xiaotian didn't dare to delay any longer, and quickly slipped out of the window. (To be continued......)
