Chapter 284: The Enraged Ling Aoshuang
Early the next morning, the representatives of the major families woke up from their respective beds on time, and after a series of routine operations such as washing and breakfast, they all left the residence and prepared to leave for the Ling Mansion in the city.
There is nothing strange about this, although the Ling family had already given their own compensation plan for the aftermath of the Hidden Spring Mountain accident yesterday, and they did not raise any objections at that time, but after a night of adjustment and deep thought, they felt that there were still some details worth continuing to explore.
Besides, the family behind them may not be able to give conditions that can be compared to the Ling family, but the world is impermanent, in case that the seventh seat of the Inquisitioning Court is of high character and is not the kind of person who is greedy for power, doesn't that mean that they still have a chance?
In short, it's all here, and if you don't do anything, you always feel a little unwilling.
"Alas! I didn't expect Ye Yin to be so useless, I knew that I shouldn't have bet on the Ye family. ”
Zhang Yang didn't rush out of the house, sat in his seat and sighed, sighed in an angry tone, and then turned to his subordinates behind him and said, "Haven't the people of the Bai family arrived yet?" ”
"The subordinates specially went to the city gate to inquire, and there was no news that the Bai family had entered the city."
"Alas! That's a real problem. ”
Zhang Yang couldn't help but press his eyebrows, and complained secretly, "I'm just a steward of the Zhang family, how did this kind of drudgery fall on my head?" ”
It is said that people are as their name suggests, but Zhang Yang thinks that he has always been kind to others, and he has always worked diligently, behaved honestly, and did not get involved in the open and secret battles between the head of the family and the great elder, why was he sent here by the family to negotiate with the Ling family?
Come on! Is that the Ling family good? He is a small steward, he is soft-spoken, and he may not even enter the gate of the Ling Mansion in normal times, but now the family actually lets himself fight with the other party?
"Alas!"
Thinking of this, Zhang Yang couldn't help but sigh again, without the slightest consciousness that he now represented the Zhang family, and said weakly, "It's okay if the people from the Bai family don't come, I asked you to visit the bloody dawn in the hospital before, did you find out what that Lord Yan likes?" ”
"This ......" his subordinate scratched his head, his face became more ugly than flamboyant, and said hesitantly, "That...... Should Lord Yan like sweet? ”
"Sweet? Should it also? ”
Zhang Yang stared at the other party with a strange expression, feeling that he urgently needed to adjust his mental state now, otherwise he would probably destroy his long-standing image of being kind to others.
"Steward, it's not that I'm lazy, but it's a bloody dawn!"
Undoubtedly, this explanation not only helped the subordinate avoid a disaster, but also helped Zhang Yang maintain his good reputation.
"Alas!"
"Alas!"
Zhang Yang and the subordinates around him sighed at the same time as if they had a heart, and then looked at each other, almost not hugging each other and crying bitterly.
It's so hard!
"Steward, it's not good! Uh......"
Just when the atmosphere on the field gradually became a little strange, a member of the Zhang family who was in charge of running errands ran over from outside the door, and then froze in place, and he didn't know whether to retract his feet that had been raised.
"Ahem! What's up? ”
Anyway, he was in charge, but Zhang Yang reacted first, his face turned pale, and he sat on his seat and asked.
"Huh? Yes! That's right! The subordinates just heard something outside......"
With the narration of this subordinate, Zhang Yang could no longer maintain his image, and collapsed in his seat with a shocked face, and after a while, he gritted his teeth and said viciously: "Damn! I'm not doing this errand! ”
......
"Who the hell is it?"
In the conference room of the Ling Mansion, Ling Luoyu, the Grand Elder of the Ling Family, stared at the Second Elder Ling Shiyu with a gloomy face, and asked with an angry expression.
For so many years, this was the first time she had been so angry, and the object of her anger was still the second elder Ling Shiyu, who had always advanced and retreated with her.
Ling Shiyu clenched his fists, his face was full of shame and anger, and in the face of Ling Luoyu's questioning, his eyes flickered and replied, "I don't know." ”
"How could you not know? Including the guards, all the personnel arrangements of the Ling Mansion were all transferred by you, how could you not know who the traitor was? ”
Such an answer was obviously not satisfactory, Ling Luoyu said with a frown.
"I've already checked, and none of the people around Yan Hua's yard last night were alive." After a pause, Ling Shiyu glanced at the direction of the main seat again, and continued, "Even the shadow guards who arrived later have been wiped out, except for the three of us, it stands to reason that there is no fourth person who knows about this matter." ”
Ling Luoyu narrowed her eyes and asked coldly, "So you are doubting me and the family master?" ”
A drop of cold sweat instantly flowed from Ling Shiyu's forehead, he opened his mouth but couldn't say a word, looked at Ling Luoyu who questioned him in disbelief, and then his eyes showed a look of request.
In the face of her request, the Great Elder Ling Luoyu on the opposite side quietly looked away from him.
There is no way, if there is no way out, Ling Luoyu does not want to abandon this comrade-in-arms. But this matter is so big that even she can only seek self-protection first, and she has no ability to pull the other party again.
With years of tacit understanding, Second Elder Ling Shiyu instantly understood that he had been given up by Ling Luoyu, but if he wanted her to be tied up like this, even the Great Elder couldn't do it!
"Of course I didn't doubt the head of the house."
Ling Shiyu let out a sigh of relief, instantly regained his demeanor as the second elder of the Ling family, and said lightly, "Although I haven't found the traitor yet, I suspect that the traitor should be the same person who released the news of Yan Hua before." ”
Ling Luoyu's expression changed: "What do you mean by this?" ”
Ling Shiyu said after a long time: "Thinking back to the details of Yan Hua's refining medicine, the shadow guard named April should be the first to know, and the shadow guard is directly under the head of the family, so there is no problem all the way to the head of the family." But the laboratory used by Yan Hua was not remote, there were still other people around, and there were many people, so it was hard to guarantee that no one would pass by. ”
"Hah!" Ling Luoyu laughed angrily, "So the second elder is suspicious of me?" ”
Although the three elders of the Ling family are all in high positions, their division of labor is different, for example, Feng Daoguang is in charge of finance, and the second elder Ling Shiyu is in charge of personnel arrangements.
And the operation of the Ling Mansion was in charge of the Great Elder, and as for the laboratory that Yan Hua used before, it naturally belonged to the scope of Ling Luoyu's responsibility.
Although Ling Shiyu didn't point it out directly, this was obviously pouring dirty water on Ling Luoyu again, how could this make the Great Elder who thought he was already standing on the shore not be angry?
"Enough!"
Just when Ling Luoyu was about to fight back, Ling Aoshuang, who had been watching coldly, suddenly spoke, and the phoenix eyes full of majesty swept over the two elders of the Ling family, and said calmly, "The second elder is not doing things well, and he still wants to bite the great elder, although the plot is bad, but he has worked hard and made great achievements, and he will be suspended from all his duties immediately, and he will still retain the treatment of the elder." ”
"This! Head of House......"
Ling Shiyu's face changed drastically suddenly, and he hurriedly spoke.
"Yes!"
Without waiting for Ling Shiyu to defend, Ling Luoyu on the other side stepped the other party into the abyss with one foot.
"The matter of the traitor is urgent, but the most important thing at the moment is how the Ling family will deal with this matter."
Without wasting too much energy on Ling Shiyu, who had lost his soul, Ling Aoshuang set his eyes on Ling Luoyu, the Great Elder with a respectful face, "Because of the rumors that suddenly appeared, representatives of various families are watching here, if the Ling family can't solve this problem perfectly, it will deal a huge blow to the Ling family's prestige." The Great Elder has a lot of experience, is there any solution to this? ”
When Ling Luoyu heard this, he frowned and thought for a moment, then shook his head and replied helplessly: "The matter has happened, and it is no longer realistic to stop the rumors from spreading at this time, and the top priority is how the Ling family can remedy it." ”
"What good ideas does the Great Elder have?"
"First of all, we must find Yan Hua's whereabouts, the person was robbed in the Ling Mansion, then the Ling family must find it back." Ling Luoyu said, "Regardless of whether Yan Hua is dead or alive now, only by finding Yan Hua in front of everyone can the Ling family's ability be proven." ”
"Hmm."
Ling Aoshuang nodded lightly, although he didn't care about Yan Hua's life or death before, but now that this matter is known to everyone, his whereabouts are not so simple.
"Secondly, we must find out the identity of the robber and make him pay a terrible price, so as to deter other young people who have different intentions towards the Ling family."
"Yes."
This is also Ling Aoshuang's idea, she naturally will not veto the other party, "Yan Hua's disappearance must be related to his identity as a pharmacist, the Ling family only needs to check the places where each family has settled in the city, I believe it should be able to find some clues." ”
"The head of the house is wise."
Ling Luoyu suddenly paused for a moment before continuing: "In the end, it is to call the eldest prince back. ”
"Huh?"
Ling Aoshuang's eyes condensed slightly, "Why?" ”
Facing the faint sense of oppression coming from Ling Aoshuang's body, Ling Luoyu replied as usual: "After all, Yan Hua is a member of the Cambrian Academy, and now that he has been robbed, we should be in the ward Cambrian, and the eldest prince is a good middleman." The other is the wounds on the corpses of those shadow guards...... It also needs to be confirmed by the eldest prince himself. ”
Ling Aoshuang slowly retracted her gaze, and said in an indifferent tone: "Yan Hua's disappearance should indeed say hello to Camwu, so let's do it." ”
"Yes!"
Ling Luoyu bowed slightly in response, and then heard a knock on the door outside the conference room.
"The head of the family, the whereabouts of each family in the city have been checked."
The person who came walked into the conference room, half-knelt on the ground without squinting, lowered his head and reported, "Only the head of the Ye family is not there." ”
Ling Aoshuang waved his hand calmly and said, "Got it, go down." ”
Ling Luoyu looked at the figure that disappeared outside the door with complicated eyes, and did not ask Ling Aoshuang why the other party appeared here, but asked calmly, "Family Master, do you need me to go?" ”
"No, you don't."
Ling Aoshuang shook his head, stood up from his seat, and said in a cold tone, "After all, the other party is also the head of the family in terms of identity, and it is better for this seat to personally go on a trip to show the respect of the Ling family." ”
Rumble!
As soon as the words fell, a violent air flow instantly rose in the conference room, blowing the tables and chairs in the room to shake from side to side.
Ling Luoyu subconsciously raised his hand to block it in front of him, only to find that only himself and Ling Shiyu, who was left with the title of Second Elder, were left in the conference room, but Ling Aoshuang was gone.
"It seems that the head of the family is really angry this time!"
