Chapter 223: Meet an accomplice

Shinong Industry and Commerce, although His Majesty made a decree after ascending the throne, promising that the disciples of Shangjia could also enter the government according to the scientific examination, but the low status of businessmen was deep-rooted, and the elder brother of the Li family wanted to do business, but he had to give up because of the lintel of the Li family.

Li also said with a smile: "Brother often regrets that he can't show his ambitions, so he can only help the family take care of the ancestral property." ”

Not long after, Li's elder brother Li Jing came, this is not her eldest brother, but her second brother.

Thin and tall and very handsome, he brought two or three servants, each of whom was holding a lot of boxes, it was Tao Le who led him over, and his uncle Tao Yuan also followed when he heard about it, and personally served Shen Xi and his palm.

Li Jing was very sleek and calm in the face of Shen Xihe, but when Tao Yuan mentioned that he wanted to personally check Shen Xihe, his smile obviously became a little reluctant.

Tao Yuan has been immersed in business for many years, going south and north, naturally his eyes are like torches, he didn't notice anything at first, but after seeing too much and finding that the old objects were not one or two, he frowned, but did not think deeply, but told Li Jingdao: "Virtuous nephew, collect objects in the future, don't try to be old, there are not so many unscrupulous descendants in this world who are so depressed that they want to sell their ancestral things." ”

This is a euphemism to remind Li Jing that Tao Yuan felt that Li Jing was deceived by others, so he accepted so many things that might not be clean.

In fact, there are thirty-four items brought by Li Jing, and Shen Xihe roughly estimates that there are only four or five unclean things, and it is only a guess, whether it is really unclean has not yet been verified, but Tao Yuan will kindly remind him if he has enough experience.

"Third cousin, you go and ask your brother-in-law to come over." Shen Xihe said to Toler.

She can't sit idly by and watch this matter, the court is now investigating this case thoroughly, and in the future, no one who is involved in the case will want to escape, Li Jing is now in-law with the Tao family, and now she will not provoke it, and when Li Jing falls deeper and deeper, the Tao family will also suffer a big loss.

For today's plan, it can only be that Tao Cheng discovers something strange, plots against Li Jing, and makes meritorious contributions to Li Jing's crimes, so that the Tao family and your family can retreat.

Although Shen Xihe's face has always been very flat, Li is keen, and always feels that something bad has happened, seeing her apprehension, Shen Xihe said to her: "Cousin-in-law, this matter has nothing to do with you, you only saw your in-laws today, and I don't want to invite Li Weng to come, outsiders will only gossip about you when they see it." ”

On the first day of the bride's passing, the husband's family invited the bride's father and mother to come to the door, which makes outsiders think of the Li family and the Tao family?

Shen Xihe is a person who doesn't care about fame, but only to herself, and this era does not allow everyone to be as arbitrary as her.

"County Lord......" Li thanked Shen Xihe for thinking about her, but he was also worried about his brother, especially when he turned his head to see his brother's face tight, he sank to the bottom even more, "But is there something offensive about my brother?" ”

"Brother Ling is offended, but it is not me who offends, nor is it the living." Shen Xihe glanced at Li Jing lightly.

Not a living person......

That is the dead man, when it comes to the dead, everyone knows about burial objects, Li Shi looked at the objects on the table again, his face turned pale, his body was weak and almost fell, but fortunately, Tauler supported her in time, held her hand tightly, and supported her.

There was a knock on the door, Shen Xihe asked Pearl to open the door, Hongyu brought Tao Cheng in, closed the door again, and stood outside with Pearl.

"Little uncle, I ...... in Kyoto half a month ago" Shen Xihe roughly explained the cause of the incident, "At this moment, Bu Shizi has been ordered by the emperor to go to Henan Mansion to investigate thoroughly, and His Majesty attaches great importance to this matter." Most of the things of the Li family's brothers are not coming from the right way, and when His Majesty investigates it so far, the name of the Li family will be ruined. ”

How unreasonable is it to dig up people's graves?

"Brother!" Li screamed, staring at her brother in disbelief, "How can you be so confused! ”

If Daddy knew about this, he would be removed from the family tree, and they would be disgraced, and they would no longer be able to raise their heads in front of their relatives, and she would have no shame to face her husband and in-laws in the future, and her younger siblings would be hindered in their marriages in the future.

Li Jing actually had a lot of thoughts when he heard Shen Xihe's provocation, and wanted to deduce that he was not a participant, but was just deceived and received some old things, even Tao Cheng's sharp gaze did not shake him, but his sister's tearful eyes made him bow his head in shame.

Seeing this, Li, who was still looking forward to it, couldn't bear it and fainted and fell into her husband's arms.

"San Lang, take your daughter-in-law down." Tao Cheng commanded in a deep voice.

Only Shen Xihe, Tao Yuan, Tao Cheng and Li Jing were left in the house.

"Erlang, you tell the truth about this, stop the precipice, and turn back to the shore." Tao Cheng persuaded.

Yu Gong Taocheng is a history of assassination, and such a thing happened in Linchuan, which is his duty.

Yu and Li Tao's two families are now in-laws, and he can't handle them carefully.

"Uncle Shi, this matter was done by me alone, and no one in the family knew about it." Li Jing knelt down with a puff, "I hope that Uncle Shi will not say anything to my father and mother, I will go home tomorrow and commit suicide." ”

He also wanted to die here, but this was to make Li Tao's two families enemies and destroy his sister's good marriage.

"If you really do such things that hurt the peace of the heavens, you will indeed be guilty of unforgivable, but a man is in the world, standing up to the heavens and the earth, and he is not afraid to make mistakes. Fear of mistakes and do not change, mistakes but do not see. Tao Cheng said earnestly, "If you commit suicide today, you are to avoid your mistakes, and if you know that you are wrong, the first thing is how to lower it, not to make a mistake to the end." ”

Li Jing understood what Tao Cheng meant, and a glimmer of light first rose in his eyes, and then it dimmed: "Uncle Shi, these people are extremely vicious, if I wasn't persecuted, how could I have fallen here?" ”

Li Jing is a scholarly family, a person who grew up reading sages and sages, how can he not know how hurtful it is to dig graves to collect money?

But he mistakenly believed his friend, and as soon as he stepped in, there was no turning back: "My nephew witnessed them slaughtering his loved ones by the defector......"

Li Jing said with grief and couldn't cry.

"Do you think that as soon as you die, they will let the Li family go?" Shen Xihe chuckled, "They will wonder if you will tell your family the secret, you can't have half a bit of compassion in doing such things, just in case, they will try their best to kill your father, mother, brother, and sister after you die......"

Li Jing's body shook.

Tao Cheng also said: "What the county lord said is extremely true, now you can make up for your mistakes in order to save the reputation of the Li family and save your father and mother from fire and water." ”

Li Jing was stunned for a moment, then raised his sleeves to wipe the tears on his face, and looked at Tao Cheng with a generous face: "Uncle Shi taught me!" ”

Tao Cheng helped Li Jing up, and asked Shen Xihe here, and did not avoid Shen Xihe, Shen Xihe knew more about this matter than them.

It turned out that Li Jing was trapped by them, but Li Jing insisted on only helping to sell the stolen goods, and did not participate in the sharing of money or the digging of graves.
