Chapter 129: Redemption

The next morning, the morning sun broke through the clouds, sprinkled a faint bright color, awakened the sleeping people, and wisps of cooking smoke rose from every house and dissipated into the clear sky.

Zhao Zheng woke up early, and after eating, he hurried to the rejuvenation clinic on horseback.

Lin Zhong'er's family has changed dramatically, worried, last night in the second half of the night to fall asleep, today looks very tired, eyes darkened.

Zhao Zheng saw that Lin Zhong'er was not in a good state, and comforted: "You don't have to worry too much, I'll go and redeem your grandfather, you can wait for my good news at home." If you're hungry, eat something, but don't burn yourself out. ”

"How can that work, I must go with you." Lin Zhong'er shook his head and said.

"Didn't I say it yesterday, leave all this matter to me, your daughter's family is not suitable for showing up, I'll help you do it." Zhao Zheng's tone strengthened a little.

Lin Zhong'er saw that Zhao Zheng was speaking toughly, and compromised: "Okay then." I'll stay at home and wait for your good news. ”

"Well, don't worry, I will definitely bring your grandfather back completely, even a lot of hair."

"I have three thousand taels here, you can take it." Lin Zhong'er reached into his arms and gently took out two silver tickets in black and white, one with a denomination of 1,000 taels and the other with a denomination of 2,000 taels, "My family really can't take out 10,000 taels, but I can still take out 3,000 taels, and as for the remaining 7,000 taels, I have to rely on you to help." ”

"Silly girl, if you give me this money, aren't you afraid that I will take your silver ticket and run away?" Zhao Zheng smiled and didn't take the money.

"I'm sure you're not that kind of person." Lin Zhong'er whispered.

"It is indispensable to guard against people, there are too many people in this world who are not the same. You'd better be careful in the future. You take the money first. Wait until I bring your grandfather back. It's not too late for you to give me this money. And you don't have to give so much, just give me two thousand taels of silver. If you give me all your family savings, what will you use to buy medicinal herbs in the future? ”

"You'd better take the money. I'm really upset if you were to pay it all. Lin Zhong'er pushed the money forward again.

Zhao Zheng pondered for a moment, if he didn't want a penny, the Lin family would be even more embarrassed, it was better to ask for less money, so that the Lin family could have peace of mind.

"Since you say so. Then I'll take it first, but I want two thousand taels to be enough, and you can keep the rest. Zhao Zheng took out two thousand taels of silver tickets and stuffed them into his sleeve, "Without further ado, I'll set off." ”

"Well, be careful on your way." Lin Zhong'er raised her head and stared at Zhao Zheng, she found that Zhao Zheng had a fold on his neckline, which was quite unbeautiful. Subconsciously reached out and brushed the fold a little, smoothing it out. This small action made her look like a little daughter-in-law who sent her husband out.

Zhao Zhengxin was touched. Although he doesn't like Lin Zhong'er, he has to admit that Lin Zhong'er is a very good girl.

But what if it's good?

He is a martial artist, and the road he will walk in the future is full of hardships and dangers, coming and going in the wind and rain, do you want such a good girl to worry about him every day?

In this world, there must be someone more suitable than him to marry Lin Zhong'er, and there are not a few such people.

Zhao Zheng avoided Lin Zhong'er's gaze, strode out of the medical hall, and took away the colored horse tied to the door.

Qibao County is a small place with a big palm, and it is not far from the Rejuvenation Medical Center to the Yamen, and Zhao Zheng quickly arrived at the place. As soon as he pulled the reins, the colored horse raised its neck, and the sound of the horse's hooves stopped abruptly. He turned over and dismounted, tied the horse to the stake, and walked to the dignified entrance of the official office.

Two guards stopped Zhao Zheng with their hands and asked about their intentions, Zhao Zheng briefly indicated that one of the officials entered the door to report, and put Zhao Zheng in after coming out.

The Yamen interrogation case should have been promoted to the court for interrogation, and it was carried out one by one in accordance with the official process, but Miao Li belonged to a private torture hall this time and oppressed the people, how could he be so blatant, so he naturally had to collect money in secret. The official led Zhao Zheng through the side door of the yamen, turned left and right, and came to Miao Li's study along the road.

Miao Li was as old as ever, with a pair of iconic "δΉ€" eyebrows raised high, wearing a seven-grade official uniform, and the whole person looked like a black-faced judge enshrined in the temple. Although his officials are not big, they seem to be thousands of miles away from the common people.

This is an informal occasion, there is no need to give a big gift, Zhao Zheng clenched his fists, leaned over slightly, and said politely: "The grass people have seen the Miao County Order." ”

"No courtesy." Miao Li flicked his sleeves.

"Miao County Order, I came this time to talk to you for the Lin family's grandfather and grandson, to thank you for all your contributions to Qibao County over the years, thanks to your good governance, the people of Qibao County have been able to live and work in peace and contentment over the years, and be blessed and healthy." Zhao Zheng found a grand excuse for paying the money. Everything in this world that cannot be seen has to be covered with a fig leaf.

"It's nothing, these are all things that parents should do." Miao Li has been making money for many years, and when he talks about this kind of thing, his face is neither red nor white, and he is calm.

"Miao County Ling has worked hard for Qibao County for many years, and the grandfather and grandson of the Lin family are grateful for this, and specially sent me to give you a small gift, and I hope you can accept it." Zhao Zheng took out an envelope from his sleeve and offered it with both hands.

The official had already mentioned the purpose of Zhao Zheng's coming here before, Miao Li knew that it was filled with money, his eyes showed a slight joy, he took the envelope in his hand, and after cutting it, he pinched out a gap, among which there were several silver tickets, which together were exactly 10,000 taels. The joy in his eyes was even better, and he said: "Since this is the Lin family's heart, then I will accept it." ”

"Old man Lin is old, and it is understandable that he will make mistakes, and I hope that Miao County Order will open up on the Internet for the sake of this thin gift and let him out of prison. I am here to thank you on behalf of the Lin family's grandfather and grandson. Zhao Zheng suppressed his anger and said respectfully.

"This is easy to say, this official loves the people like a son, for the sake of the Lin family's filial piety, this case can be blamed by the official, you can take him away." Miao Li said happily.

"Thank you Miao County Order, I'll go and lead him away, so as not to cause trouble to the yamen by Old Man Lin." Zhao Zheng said that he was about to leave, and took a step back.

"Wait, I have one more thing." Miao Li pinched the envelope and suddenly shouted.

"What does the Miao County Order command?" Zhao Zheng frowned slightly. Paused.

"Do you remember the last time I told you?" Miao Li asked.

Zhao Zheng was stunned at first. Xuan even understood what Miao Li meant. The last time he was caught, Miao Li once stretched out an olive branch to him, but he refused, it seems that this time Miao Li moved to recruit him again. He sneered in his heart, according to his temperament, how could he do things under Miao Li.

"I still remember, but I'm really not interested in being on an errand, and I ask Miao County to order not to be reluctant." Zhao Zheng lightly refused.

"If you are willing to serve under this official. I can return this envelope to you, and I can also help you facilitate your relationship with the little daughter of the Lin family, and give you an extra gift, what do you think? Miao Li pulled in.

"I think it's better to keep it as it is, you better accept this small gift. I can't afford it. ”

Miao Li glanced at Zhao Zheng deeply, looked at him for a few breaths, and found that Zhao Zheng did not dodge or dodge, and he didn't mean to be afraid of him at all, which was a little strange. He raised an eyebrow. Displeasure said: "Since this is the case, then I won't force you." Go and speak to the officer at the door. Let him take you to your cell to pick you up. ”

"Thank you Miao County for making it complete."

Zhao Zheng retreated out of the door and told the official at the door what Miao Li meant, and the official took him to the prison and found Lin Jiyuan in the cell.

Lin Jiyuan was tortured in prison for several days, he couldn't eat well, he couldn't sleep well, and he was worried all day long, he had been tortured to the point that he was not human, his body was full of filth, and his white beard had lost a few wisps, completely losing the feeling of the fairy wind and bones of the past. When he suddenly saw Zhao Zheng, he thought he was dazzled, and he wiped it hard a few times before he dared to believe the facts in front of him, and hurriedly threw himself on the cell door, shouting in a lost voice: "Zhao Gongzi stays, please save me!" I don't want to go to jail! ”

"Mr. Lin, don't get excited, I'm here this time to ransom you out." Zhao Zheng patted Lin Jiyuan's wrinkled withered hands, and then ordered the officials to open the prison door.

Lin Jiyuan saw the prison door open, only to feel that this was a beautiful dream, so excited that he burst into tears, grabbed Zhao Zheng's hand, and said gratefully: "Thank you for your help, please accept the old man." ”

"Don't, at your age, if you are asked to kneel for me, I will have to lose my life." Zhao Zheng hurriedly supported Lin Jiyuan and picked him up.

"Miao County's order said that he would lock me up for the rest of my life, how did you rescue me?" Lin Jiyuan asked crying.

"This is not the place to talk, you come home with me first, and then I will tell you."

"Okay, let's go, I don't want to come back to this place."

Zhao Zheng helped the trembling Lin Jiyuan, left the cell, rode away on a horse, and galloped back to the Rejuvenation Medical Hall. As soon as Lin Zhong'er saw that her grandfather was back, her tears immediately fell and she hugged her grandfather. This prison turmoil scared both the grandfather and grandson so much that it was like the sky was falling.

When Zhao Zheng saw this scene, his disgust for Miao Li was even stronger, and the Lin family's grandfather and grandson were able to get out of trouble when they met him for help, but what if they didn't meet him?

If you don't meet him, the Lin family will probably be crushed under Miao Li's official authority!

Zhao Zheng's eyes were slightly cold, and he secretly moved the killing machine, his right hand moved down, and he habitually held it on the hilt of the sword, and the one-life sword made of meteorites sent a chill through Ge Bu.

After the grandfather and grandson had cried enough, Lin Zhong'er wiped her tears and said, "Grandpa, this time, thanks to Zhao Gongzi who lent us eight thousand taels of silver, I ransomed you, otherwise, you would still be locked up in the prison cell now." ”

"What? Eight, eight thousand taels? When Lin Jiyuan heard this sky-high price, he almost didn't get angry, "You better let me go back to the cell and stay, so much money, even if you smash my old bones, you can't pay it back!" ”

"Don't worry, I have a lot of money, I'm not in a hurry to ask for this money, you can pay it back slowly, and you don't have to worry about it." Zhao Zheng said this, but in fact, he didn't plan to ask the Lin family for this money at all. If he wanted the money, he would go to Miao Li's house to get it.

"I've worked hard all my life to save these savings for my granddaughter, but because of this incident, all these savings are gone, and I have so much debt, how can I live." Lin Jiyuan was heartbroken.

"Didn't I say it, I'm not in a hurry to ask for this money, you can pay it back slowly, in 50 years, 100 years, or even 200 years, I will never force debts." Zhao Zhengdao.

Lin Jiyuan heard Zhao Zheng say so generously, he muttered in his heart, and asked, "Zhao Gongzi, why are you so good to my family?" If you have a crush on my granddaughter, you can say it, but you don't agree to such a marriage. ”

"I'm helping your family because this money is nothing in my eyes." Zhao Zheng smiled and patted the saber hanging from his waist, "Don't forget, I'm a martial artist, and it's not difficult to get money." ”

"This money is a drizzle for you, but it is an unimaginable amount of money for my family, how can you let me repay you." Lin Jiyuan made a difficulty, thought about it bitterly for a while, and suddenly his eyes lit up, "There is!" I have something in my hand that should be useful to the warriors, and I might be able to help you. ”

"Oh? What is it? Zhao Zheng said curiously. (To be continued.) )

PS: I'm out of love today...... Alas.
