Volume 1 Robbing Relatives Chapter 73 I also killed someone last time
"King Ning, how old is he, how big an official is he?" Ding Ling said, "In Hangzhou, I know a lot of high-ranking officials, and I am afraid of him?!" ”
"I said, madam, you really don't know how thick the sky is. How can you and I offend this King Ning? Liu Zhao said, "Regarding the relationship between the Lu family and me, Liu Zhaoshun, I have settled these three people, but we can't offend this King Ning." So ......"
"So Daddy is in a dilemma?" Liu Shifeng said.
"That's true." Liu Zhaoshun sighed.
"People can't be driven away, and King Ning can't be offended, master, you have to find a way!" Ding Ling said.
"Daddy, since people are here, we should treat them well, besides, King Ning is not a three-headed and six-armed person, how would he know that people are here with us" Liu Shifeng said.
"Now our Liu family can only take one step at a time. Externally, we can't talk nonsense, we just say that it is a distant relative of our Liu family, and they are relatives who are here to leave, so don't make any mistakes! Liu Zhao said by the way.
"Master, this is not a thing, sooner or later someone will find out." Mrs. Liu was worried.
"I know the seriousness of this matter, so I'm not here to ward you today. Tighten your mouth, and don't keep your mouth in check. Liu Zhaoshun reminded again.
It's been a long time since I've slept like this. Lu Qingyi and the others didn't get up very early, and breakfast was already ready.
After breakfast, Lu Qingyi and Lu Teng came to visit Liu Zhaoshun. Yesterday, because there were many people, there were some things that were not suitable for me to say clearly. Now there were only three of them in the hall, plus Steward Xin, a total of four.
"Brother Liu, thank you for your hospitality yesterday." Lu Teng said gratefully.
"Brother Teng, this is the end of the world, I have been friends with your brother for many years, and this time there has been such a big change in Lujiazhai, and I haven't helped with other helps, I feel deeply guilty." Liu Zhaoshun said with some shame.
"Along the way, King Naning's minions were very tight, but fortunately, a group of people with lofty ideals helped us, so that we were able to get out of danger many times." Lu Qingyi said.
"Oh, there's a bunch of people who come to help? You know who they are. Liu Zhaoshun asked.
"The younger generation is also deeply puzzled, and this matter has been haunting me. Along the way, they have been able to save the day many times, but they have all been lost. As if they knew where we were, they always showed up when we were in danger. ”
"Is there such a thing? I don't think these people will be bad for you. They can only be our friends, or they wouldn't have rescued you several times. ”
"We think so too," Lu Teng said, "but until now, I haven't touched the other party's door, and I'm always a little uneasy in my heart." ”
"Brother Teng, since the other party is a friend, why should we worry. People may also have unspeakable addictions. Liu Zhao said by the way.
"Probably, if we can know who the other party is, we should thank them properly." Lu Qingyi said.
From Liu Zhaoshun's mouth, it has been confirmed that it was not Liu Zhaoshun who helped them get out of danger along the way, but someone else, so who is this person? All the way out of Lujiazhai, the road was chased and killed by King Ning's people many times, it has always been the brothers who would rather sacrifice themselves to protect the Lu family, I don't know when, these unknown people are rescued in distress, safe and avoided, never expose their whereabouts, these people are all masters of martial arts, and the organization is meticulous. Who are they?
The county seat of Telly.
There is also one thing that haunts Wang Laohu.
That is, Wang Laohu also had a murder before, but it was just a matter of settling the situation. There are many clues that Wang Laohu once killed someone, who did he kill? Why kill him? All of this is still a mystery to Wang Laohu, and Wang Laohu wants to figure out this matter immediately.
When such a big thing happens, there must be a lot of people in the county who know about it, and there are many channels that can be inquired about, but people who know the details? Wang Laohu thought about it, maybe there were only the parties, his cronies, Lord Zhu or the Four Tigers of Taili. And among these people, his cronies may know the most, Wang Laohu thought of Wang Biao, a loyal retinue who has always followed him.
Wang Laohu's room. Only Wang Laohu and Wang Biao, and the personal maid Xiaocui was also branched out.
Wang Laohu asked leisurely while drinking tea: "Wang Biao, how many years have you followed me?" ”
"Back to Gongzi, Wang Biao has followed Gongzi since he was a child."
"So you've been with me the longest. What do you know best about me? Wang Laohu asked.
"The little one doesn't dare, I just do what Childe wants, and I have no other thoughts, please ask Childe to investigate."
"Wang Biao, you have been with me for so long, you should know me best. Do you think I've changed? ”
"The little one doesn't dare, I just obey the son, and I don't dare to comment on the son."
"I know you're faithful to me, and I'm just going to be questioned." Wang Laohu turned to ask again, "However, there is something I need you to tell me now." ”
"Childe, what do you want to ask?"
"How many murders have I committed?" Wang Laohu asked.
"This ...... Childe, why do you ask about this in a good way? ”
"All you have to do is tell me the truth! How many murders have I committed? Wang Laohu asked again.
"Counting Liu Er's stunned son this time, there are two times. But in Liu Er's stunned case, Gongzi has already overturned the case for himself. ”
"Who overturned my murder case for me?"
"This ...... Childe, last time it was the old lady who asked someone to settle it"
"That is, the money was spent." Wang Laohu said.
Wang Biao did not deny it.
"Did I kill someone last time?" Wang Laohu asked again.
"Last time, Gongzi did hit Li Caitou on the head, but he was only seriously injured, and it didn't take long for him to die."
"So the government decided that I did the case?"
"That's true."
Wang Laohu couldn't help but hate himself again, this Wang Laohu, relying on his wealth and power, did things that did not make people worry. I don't know what it was for this time?
Wang Biao said this:
That was one day a year ago. Wang Laohu followed Steward He to collect rent. This year, due to the insect infestation, the agricultural harvest was somewhat affected. Therefore, when it comes to collecting rent, these tenants are more or less difficult. This was the first time Wang Laohu had gone out to collect rent, and he used to be an old lady and a housekeeper He. Wang Laohu doesn't care if you are a natural disaster or a man-made person, take a family, beat a family, almost all the tenants of his family have been beaten by him, "These Diao people, what about beating you?!" ”
Li Caitou's village is far away from the county seat, and on this day, Wang Laohu and Steward He came to Li Caitou's house. Li Caitou knew that Wang Laohu was coming, and he had already greeted him at the door.
Steward He said: "Li Caitou, are you ready for this year's rental grain?" ”
Li Caitou said: "Steward He, I'm ready, but this year, you also know that the insect plague will have an impact on the harvest, so ......"
"So what, you Diao Min, are your bones oxygenated?" Wang Laohu said.
"Wang Gongzi, I didn't mean that." Li Caitou explained. Before Li Caitou could finish speaking, Wang Laohu hit him hard with a fist.
Li Caitou was at this age, and as soon as he was tossed by Wang Laohu, he fluttered and fell to the ground, screaming in his mouth.
Li Caitou's wife hurriedly helped him up.
"I've only used a little force this time, and it's for you to remember it for a long time. This year's rent is indispensable! Wang Laohu said.
"Prince Wang, that's all there is to our family, where do you tell us to get food?" Li Caitou's wife said.
"No?" Wang Laohu said in disbelief, "Wang Biao, you listen to me, go into the house and search." ”
Wang Biao led a group of family members into the house to search for food. The poor man's house was not very big, and there was almost nothing in it, and he turned inside and out of the water tank and wooden cabinet, and only found a few potatoes and a small bag of finely chopped rice.
"Childe, I've found them all, that's all!" Wang Biao replied.
Wang Laohu looked at these rice grains and sneered: "That's all, those beasts don't eat anything." Wang Laohu raised his hand and knocked over the broken rice, and half of the broken rice fell into the soil.
Li Caitou and his wife hurriedly crawled over and grabbed the broken rice in the soil with both hands. As you grab, you blow off the dust from the rice with your mouth, and put it back into the rice bag one by one.
"These poor ghosts, all of them. No wonder you have been poor all your life. Wang Laohu sneered at Li Caitou, who was picking up rice on the ground. When the old couple finished picking up the broken rice on the ground, Wang Laohu said: "This rice will be left to you, but this year's rent is not at all?" ”
