Chapter 340: Confrontation in court
After a while, only the rustling of leaves was heard, and then the tall man appeared in front of them.
"What do you want me to do?"
"We want you to go to Xie Mansion and find someone."
In the middle of the night, Gao Ling appeared on time on the eaves of Xie Mansion, but no one knew how complicated his mood was under his expressionless face.
Who would have thought that Anda and Ankang spent so much energy looking for him to kidnap an old woman in Xie Mansion.
Xie Mansion's guards were still very tight, and even a master like him had to be cautious.
As for why he easily agreed to An Lei's request, it was also because this Xie Mansion was also related to his mission this time.
Sun Tong sent him to sneak into Kyoto, just to inquire about Xie Chengli, if he could find out the distribution of Xie Chengli's power in Kyoto, it would be better over there, this time, he sneaked into Xie Mansion, and he could just go to find out the truth of Xie Chengli, as for the old woman, it was secondary.
In the study, Xie Chengli is still reading at night.
"Master, that man is here."
"Well, but I listen to your tone, do you know that person?"
"Master, this person is Sun Tong's subordinate, we have fought before, but I didn't expect that the unlearned and unskilled son of An Dagongzi would invite him?" Kazekage really couldn't figure out how a person with such a strong martial arts skill could be willing to help such a swinger.
Xie Chengli just laughed, "I'm afraid that the drunkard doesn't mean to drink, except for the room where the old lady lives is loosely guarded, and the other rooms are tightly guarded." ”
"Yes, master."
Gao Ling waited for the opportunity, figured out the timing of the change of guards in the Xie Mansion, and quietly sneaked in while he was loose.
Elderly diseases, strong martial arts are not careless. He was almost discovered several times, he wanted to sneak into the study in the county, but he didn't expect Xie Chengli to be still studying at this time, although he didn't know that Xie Chengli knew martial arts, but he had also seen the means of Fengying, and he was against him, although he might not be able to beat him, but if he didn't want to make a little noise, it was impossible.
After thinking about it, Gao Ling gave up and went to the room where the old lady was being held.
Perhaps because he didn't want to disturb the old lady's sleep, the courtyard where the old lady was located was very loose, and the old man easily sneaked in.
He was about to pick him up and take him away, when the old lady suddenly woke up, stared at him and asked, "Who are you?" What are you here to do? Does Master Xie have something to ask me? ”
Gao Lin was wondering if he would directly kill the old woman in front of him, but thinking that he had promised An Lei, Gao Ling had a murderous intent, pulled out a knife and put it on the old lady's neck, and threatened: "Don't shout loudly, otherwise, this knife will cut your throat in the next second." ”
The old lady immediately trembled and nodded, "Okay, okay, I don't scream, I don't scream, you must not kill me, I will promise you whatever you want me to do, or do you want money?" ”
"I don't want your money, I just need you to do one thing, and wait until tomorrow when you go and tell Xie Chengli yourself, tell him that you lost your mind before, so you will say the nonsense that the eldest son of the An family is inferior to you, and remember to go to the yamen to solve the case, did you hear it? I warn you, you must do what I say, or I will find you wherever you go, knowing the consequences. ”
"Okay, okay, I say, I say!"
Seeing that she agreed, Gao Ling withdrew the knife, turned around and left the Xie Mansion, and came to the farm where he lived before.
An Lei and An Kang saw that they had come back so soon, and immediately stepped forward and asked, "How is it?" Is everything done? I asked you to tie people back, why didn't you tie them up? ”
Gao Ling snorted coldly, "Are you so easy to enter when Xie Fu?" It's already very good that I can come out safe and sound, but I've already warned the old lady for you, and tomorrow he will go to the yamen to repay your innocence, you can rest assured, the thing I promised you has been done, remember what you promised me, if I appear in Kyoto, you tell others, don't blame me for being unkind when the time comes. ”
After speaking, Gao Ling stopped talking nonsense with the two of them and closed the door directly.
"Hey, this grumpy ......"
"Young master, young master! Forget it, since the matter has been done, then let's go back first, it's not too early, and when the truth is revealed tomorrow, the old lady can also grant you a clean slate, and the old man won't blame you anymore. An Kang hurriedly pulled An Lei to prevent him from getting into trouble again.
"Okay, I'll let him go today, let's go back."
The next day, the old lady really found Xie Chengli.
"Lord Xie, thank you for taking me in last night, old woman, I already feel better."
Xie Chengli took a sip of strong tea, sobered up a little, he smiled and said to her: "Old lady, these are what I should do, yesterday I saw that the old lady was too excited at the door of the mansion, so I took it upon myself to bring you back, and now the old lady feels a little calmer?" ”
The old lady nodded, "I'm already much sober, Lord Xie, do you still want to be promoted today?" ”
"It's really good, is the old lady ready?"
"I'm ready."
This time, the government also called An Lei over, but because of last night's incident, he had no fear, knowing that this old lady didn't dare to say any more nonsense.
"Who is in the hall, and what grievances are there?"
"The people's woman Liu, yesterday beat the drum and voiced grievances, suing the eldest son of the An family, An Lei is inferior to me."
Although this matter has been circulating for a day, this sentence still caused laughter when it came out of the old lady's mouth.
An Lei's face on the side became ugly, "What are you laughing at?" This is obviously this old woman talking nonsense! ”
The Lord of the Mansion held back a smile and continued to ask: "Liu, this speech is about evidence, what evidence do you have to prove that Prince An is light and thin with you?" ”
"The women remember his face."
"You fart! What can you see, a half-blind old woman? An Lei was furious, pointing at the boss and scolding.
Although everyone also has the mentality of watching a good show, I have to say that what An Lei said just now makes sense.
And An Lei is even more angry that yesterday it was clear that the high collar said that the matter had been done, and this old woman would not talk nonsense anymore, so he came over today, but now, this old woman still made him a laughing stock for everyone.
The old lady continued: "Although I can't see it, but I can touch it, I don't know if Mr. An is willing to let me touch your face, so that my old lady will know whether you are the person who was there that night." ”
