Chapter 105: There's no time to test slowly
Lin Qing paused, looked up at Mo Zechen, and said in a sincere tone.
"If the prince doubts whether what I said is true or false, the prince can send someone to check whether there was a restaurant in Xuancheng with good taste and low price three years ago, which was seized for no reason three years ago."
"As far as I know, the guests who appeared in the restaurant that day, along with the owner's family, either died or suddenly became rich."
Lin Qing's words were almost explicit.
What he meant by this was that those who did not cooperate died, and those who cooperated were all co-opted by the government.
"If there really is a gold mine in Xuancheng, why didn't you say it when you were in the capital?"
Mo Zechen turned his finger and asked unhurriedly, "Isn't it easier to attract Your Majesty's attention by directly saying that Xuancheng has a gold mine than saying that the officials in Xuancheng are corrupt?" ”
If His Majesty knew that the officials of Xuancheng had concealed the existence of the gold mine, and even mined it privately, His Majesty was afraid that he would directly send the nearby military camps to surround the entire Xuancheng.
"Does the prince think I don't want to say it?"
Lin Qing sneered, "The matter of the gold mine can be concealed for so many years without His Majesty knowing, even if I am stupid, I can guess that they must have a protective umbrella behind their backs." ”
"Whenever I mention the matter of the gold mine, I am afraid that before I have made it all clear, I will already die, and then the matter about the gold mine will be suppressed, and my death will be meaningless."
Mo Zechen nodded slightly, Lin Qing was right.
Man dies for money, and birds die for food.
For the sake of not being violated in their own interests, for the sake of their own lives, what is it to kill a common person?
Lin Qing continued, "In the second year after my father was falsely accused and imprisoned, the government did not allow us to visit him. ”
"No matter what we do, the people in the government will not let go, and then the master of the town took a fancy to my sister, saying that if my sister marries him, he can let us go to see my father."
"My sister agreed to this marriage with my mother behind my back, thinking that this would at least ensure that my father could live a more comfortable life in prison, but the master is nearly fifty years old, one year older than my father."
"I thought that no matter how hard life was, it would be like this, but later I realized that this was just the beginning of suffering."
Lin Qing smiled stiffly at the corner of his mouth, the grief in his eyes filled his eyes, and tears fell uncontrollably.
"Less than half a year after my sister married him, she suddenly fell ill, and I didn't even see her for the last time, so she was hastily buried by the other party."
"Later, I learned unexpectedly that my sister had killed herself by biting her tongue."
"The master once entertained his Shangfeng at home, but the other party drank wine and defiled my sister with drunkenness, and the master not only did not seek justice for her in order to please Shangfeng, but also drugged my sister many times and sent someone else's bed!"
Speaking of excitement, Lin Qing's hands were clenched into fists, and the back of his hand was covered with green tendons, because he was too hard, his bones even made a subtle "creaking" sound.
"My sister endured it at first, because she was worried about my father's situation in prison, until she found out that the government did not allow us to see my father, and my father was already dead in prison, so she looked for a short time."
Mo Zechen didn't speak, just frowned.
Although his personality was a little indifferent, after listening to what happened to Lin Qing, he felt a little sympathy and pity for Lin Qing in his heart.
Mo Zechen asked tentatively, "Your father, was lynched by the government and died in prison?" ”
According to Lin Qing, his father was wrongfully imprisoned, and it should have not been interrogated in court.
According to the law, without a court trial, it is not certain that the other party is a prisoner, and it is not possible to use lynching at will, and once the violator is discovered, he will be severely punished.
Since the people in the government only locked people up and didn't kill them at the beginning, why did they cause a disturbance a year later?
Lin Qing took a deep breath and calmed down his emotions before he slowly spoke, "My father was frozen to death. ”
His father seemed to be strong, but in the winter he became very weak and extremely cold.
They had prepared winter clothes for their father early, for fear that he would freeze in the winter, but the jailer would leave the newly made winter clothes.
Even on Chinese New Year's Eve, because they were in a hurry to go home for reunion, they were afraid that they would not watch, and they would be held accountable in case of a fire, and when they left, they would extinguish all the braziers used for heating.
The prison was already cold, and it was windy and snowy that night, where could my father's body bear it?
"He died on Chinese New Year's Eve when the family was reunited, when other people's families were reunited, and my family was separated by yin and yang."
"After my father died, they were worried that our family would make trouble if they found out, so they didn't allow us to go to see him."
"I have a question, since your father is dead, you may be out of their control at any time, why don't the people in the government deal with you directly?"
Mo Zechen really couldn't understand this.
A group of people who were so bold as to dare to conceal the existence of the gold mine and take it for themselves did not believe that they would be merciful to Lin Qing.
"Because I lied to them."
Lin Qing explained, "When they came to arrest my father, they were going to arrest all of our family. ”
"It was I who lied that my father told me about the existence of the gold mine, and I kept a hand at that time, as long as something happened to their family, someone would expose the matter of the gold mine."
"The people in the government didn't dare to bet on what I said was true or false, so they only arrested my father and threatened our family to listen to them honestly with my father's safety."
"I didn't tell you the truth before, it's because I don't believe you."
The matter has come to this, and Lin Qing honestly admitted that he didn't believe Mo Zechen at first.
"I don't know who is the person who acts as a protective umbrella for that group of black-hearted officials, so in my opinion, all the powerful officials in the capital are suspicious."
Mo Zechen raised his eyes to look at Lin Qing and asked in a deep voice, "You believe me now?" ”
"I don't believe it."
Lin Qing shook his head, "But I don't have time to test you slowly." ”
"I know the exact location of the gold mine that my dad found in the first place, and this is what they took me there themselves when I knew the real cause of my dad and my sister's death, and I pretended to be in the same boat as they were in the same boat and gained their trust."
"But I'm not going to tell you right now that I need you to do something for me."
Lin Qing used a consultative tone, but his eyes were extremely firm.
The expression seemed to say that if he didn't agree, he wouldn't tell him where the exact location was.
Mo Zechen pondered for a moment and asked, "What do you want me to do?" ”
