Chapter 7358 Missing
"What big thing can a frizzy person achieve?" Lin Zude raised his head and scolded.
"Father, isn't this an emergency?" Lin Yucheng walked up with a playful smile. He is Lin Zude's only son and his favorite son. He has not been afraid of his father since he was a child.
Lin Zude knows what kind of virtue his son has. However, the Lin family will be a little irritable when they are young. They will gradually calm down when they grow up and mature, so he is not in a hurry.
"What's important?" Lin Zude took his fingers off the abacus and raised his head and asked.
"Xu Santong, the governor of the county governor's office, wrote a letter to our family." Lin Yucheng took out a letter from his arms and put it on the table.
"Oh? It's strange that Mr. Xu is actually interested in writing letters to our family." Lin Zude raised the corners of his lips and showed a smile on his face.
“Have you read the letter?” Lin Zude pressed his palm on the envelope of the letter.
"Father, you haven't read it yet. How can I read it? The people from the county governor's office have said that they will be handed over to you for review."
No matter how impetuous Lin Yucheng is, he knows Naturally, I would not open the letter privately to read the priority of the matter.
"Okay, let me see what kind of medicine Xu Santong sells."
Lin Zude took out the letter and looked around carefully, his eyes becoming more and more solemn.
"Father, what did Prefect Xu say?" Lin Yucheng asked curiously.
"The fact that our Lin family harbored Wei Linqi has been exposed." Lin Zude sighed.
"Isn't it possible? Did Xu Santong betray us? Hasn't Wei Linqi been taken into the prefect's mansion?" Lin Yucheng asked doubtfully.
"No, Wei Linqi was not brought into the prefect's mansion. What Xu Santong meant was that he didn't know the whereabouts of Wei Linqi..."
"As for how the news was leaked... Xu Santong said that Wei Wuji of the Wei family ran directly to the prefect's mansion. He's asking for someone, which means it was our Lin family who told him the news," Lin Zude said.
"Why is Wei Wuji like this? Didn't he promise us not to tell anyone about our Lin family?" A look of anger flashed across Lin Yucheng's face.
At that time, they told the Wei family that Wei Linqi was being harbored by the prefect's mansion, and asked the Wei family to promise not to tell them who told them.
The Wei family clearly agreed!
What's going on now?
This is treachery.
"There are two possibilities. The first one is that the Wei family did not inform about this matter. Xu Santong learned about it from other channels. He wanted to drive a wedge between our two families. The second one is that the Wei family knew about this matter. According to what everyone said, the Wei family has the idea of using our Lin family as a stepping stone."
"Both options are possible. We must be prepared to avoid being caught off guard."
Lin Zude smelled something bad from this incident.
Maybe there is some unknown conspiracy hidden there.
“No matter what, father, we can’t dig our hearts out at the Wei family. The Wei family are not good people. Back then, the Wei family wanted to wipe out our Lin family. If we hadn’t been lucky, the Lin family would have been doomed. ." Lin Yucheng said.
"Yes, the Wei family is indeed not trustworthy. I was mistaken. Even if our Lin family cooperates with the imperial court, it will not be a big problem. After all, the Lin family has no back-pedaling, but the Wei family... Hehe, that's okay. It's hard to say." Lin Zude sneered.
"No way? The Wei family still dares to rebel against the imperial court?" Lin Yucheng said in shock.
For these aristocratic families, it is not a big deal for them to be small overlords in the local area. If they really want to confront the imperial court, then they will not do it.
If the aristocratic family could really stand up to the imperial court, they would have taken advantage of the situation when the Southern Dynasty was in chaos.
Since it was not possible back then, how is it possible now.
"The Wei family is related to the Northern Zoroastrian Cult. Do you understand?" Lin Zude said lightly.
Lin Zude stood up, put his hands behind his back, and looked at a century-old tree outside.
"Father, since the Wei family is related to the Beimen Zoroastrian Cult, do we, the Lin family, continue to have contact with them?" Lin Yucheng's voice was a little flinching.
I don’t blame him for being timid, I can only say that the Northern Zoroastrian Demonic Sect has also brought great oppression to the people in the Northern Territory of Da Qi.
“It can’t be stopped, at least it can’t be seen by the Wei family.”
“You have to be clear, the Wei family is the Wei family, the Demon Sect is the Demon Sect, they are not the same family, the Wei family It is unlikely that the family will use the magic door to destroy our Lin family. If they If they can do it, they have already done it, so why wait until today?"
"But we have to be careful, especially recently, the situation in the north is very strange and inexplicable, no one can say for sure, the Wei family. How deeply is it connected with the Northern Demon Sect?" Lin Zude said lightly.
"The Wei family is really not afraid of death. How can the Northern Demon Sect be so easy to provoke! None of our aristocratic families in the Northern Territory have been harmed by the Northern Demon Sect before." Lin Yucheng sighed.
“As things change, there will be variables in everything. There is no need to be too anxious. As long as you stand still, you will figure it out...Although the Northern Demon Sect is powerful, how can the Great Qi court be a vegetarian? If they are really invincible, why? If you haven’t beaten Leopard Fang, to put it bluntly, they can’t do it!”
Lin Zude sneered.
The aristocratic families in the Northern Territory of Daqi have records in their homes. After the establishment of Daqi, the Northern Demon Sect cooperated with Daliao and fought with Daqi.
Although Da Qi did not completely defeat the Northern Demon Sect and Daliao, it did not fall behind after all, and Da Qi was the great dynasty that truly occupied the Central Plains.
As for Daliao... they had no choice but to withdraw from the Pass after their defeat. In fact, they were no match for Daqi.
Had it not been for the sudden death of Taizu of Da Qi, Daliao would have inevitably ended up in ruins.
"Yes, father, our Lin family still hides its power and bides its time. It doesn't matter what they do, it has nothing to do with us." Lin Yucheng said.
"There are giants on both sides. We can't afford to offend any of us, so we have no choice but to do this."
It is said that we are keeping a low profile and biding our time, but in fact, we have no choice but to do so. Although the Lin family is the local leader of Tai'an City, My strength is limited, so I can't get involved.
...
"Two days have come."
Luo Xingchen left the room early in the morning and saw Zi Yan.
"What's the arrangement of Fengqingwu?"
"Don't worry, let's go to the meeting hall first."
After Zi Yan was dressed, she stood up and walked outside.
When they arrived at the meeting hall, they found Feng Qingwu and Zhu Suiliang already waiting inside.
"You are here just in time. My master's arrangement has already arrived."
Feng Qingwu's fair and handsome face had a hint of joy.
Zhu Suiliang was stunned for a moment. He had just arrived and didn't see any arrangements.
"Master Feng Hall, where are these arrangements?" Luo Xingchen asked after sitting down.
"Here it is, the message arrived as expected."
Feng Qingwu raised her hand and took out a letter, took out a dry petal from it and laid it flat on the table.
"Peony petals, this is the token of Peacock Villa!"
