Chapter 25 An uproar
Li Kun smiled, picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea before saying, "This subordinate's Xiaoqi was killed."
"If the imperial court finds out, it is inevitable that hundreds of adults will be punished for being incompetent."
"And the same goes for you, Mr. Cheng Qi."
"But trying to find the murderer means looking for a needle in a haystack. The murderer is so cunning that he left no evidence of guilt."
"The murderer can't be found and people are panicked."
"Cheng Zongqi, you insist that it was Wu Nian who killed him. You want to beat him to a trick, but you can't convince the crowd."
"Why don't we simply report it to the court with a stroke of a pen. Saying that Li Ding died of illness is not the best of both worlds?"
After Wu Nian heard this, the corners of his mouth turned up slightly. It was interesting, so interesting.
Jin Mancheng nodded, touched his beard, and thought to himself, "That might be feasible."
Only Cheng Gao was furious and shouted: "Li Ding was obviously killed, how could he report that he died of illness?"
He was not simply complaining for Li Ding.
It's just that Li Kun's method seems to be the best of both worlds. But he just gave Wu Nian a kick, which offended him severely.
What should be done now is to throw away the dirty water. Make the case a solid case, Wu Nian is the murderer, and then behead him.
This will not only put the matter to rest, but also prevent future troubles forever.
If it were reported to the court that Li Ding died of illness, wouldn't Wu Nian be free and at ease?
If Wu Nian dared to kill Li Ding, wouldn't he dare to kill him?
Although there are no witnesses or physical evidence, Cheng Gao is very confident that it was Li Ding who killed him.
He was heartbroken to keep this man.
"Okay. If you don't agree, then just pretend that I didn't say anything. Let the Lords of the Hundred Households report to the court that Li Ding was killed, but the murderer can't be found."
Li Kun smiled and the old man crossed his legs.
King Mancheng frowned.
He didn't dare to say for sure whether Wu Nian killed the person or not. But there was no human witness and the physical evidence was true.
His subordinate Xiaoqi was killed, he was incompetent.
If the murderer cannot be found, he is also incompetent.
Both sides are incompetent.
After careful consideration, Li Kun's method was better. He firmly concluded that Li Ding died of illness.
He glanced at Cheng Gao, who was about to speak, and said: "Mr. Cheng Qi. You can't find anything out anyway. Just report it to the court. Li Ding must have died of illness."
Cheng Gao's face suddenly turned livid. His upper and lower teeth were fighting, making a rattling sound. He clenched his fists and then released them.
Finally, he glared at Li Kun fiercely before saying with difficulty: "Yes."
After the matter was settled, Jin Mancheng yawned, got up and went back to sleep. Cheng Gao took a deep look at Li Kun and Wu Nian, and then left.
Wu Nian knew in his heart that the relationship was finally settled.
"Wu Nian. How about we have a drink?" Li Kun greeted with a smile.
Wu Nian knew it well.
Li Kun didn't really want to help him. He just went along with it because he couldn't deal with Cheng Gao.
But it doesn't matter. Sometimes it doesn't matter whether you are sincere or not.
The important thing is.
Li Kun can help, but he has no dealings with Cheng Gao.
"I'm a little greedy." Wu Nian said to Li Kun with a smile.
"Hahaha."
Li Kun couldn't help laughing when he saw Wu Nian being so clever.
Immediately, the two of them came to Li Kun's main room and sat down together. A domestic slave came in with drinks and peanuts.
Wu Nian smiled and picked up the wine jar, poured wine for Li Kun, and filled it for himself. He picked up the wine bowl and toasted: "What happened today, if the commander-in-chief hadn't been here, not only would I have been humiliated, but I might have also
He was killed by Cheng Gao. This glass of wine is dedicated to the Chief Banner."
Li Kun narrowed his eyes, and then said with a smile: "You are too polite. Do you still remember what I just said? When Lao Wu was here, I called him Angkor. How can I not take care of you?"
This Wu Nian really impressed him.
In the past, the drunkard didn't say much, and he wouldn't even look at him. But now Wu Nian is suspected of killing Li Ding. Not only does he do things neatly, but he is ruthless and ruthless, and he is also very deep in the city.
Watching Wu Nian and Cheng Gao talking, tit for tat.
Talk to him politely.
He really advances and retreats like the wind, and acts in a very orderly manner. He is truly a talent.
Wu Nian's guess was correct. Before, Li Kun really didn't want to help Wu Nian. But now Li Kun is somewhat sincere.
He developed a love for talent.
"Thank you, Uncle Li." Wu Nian also followed the vine and changed his name.
Li Kun suddenly smiled.
The two of them peeled peanuts and drank wine and chatted.
Both of them drank well. A jar of two kilograms of daughter's red was drunk by them. Li Kun was a little drunk, and waved his hand to Wu Nian and said: "Xiao Nian. I'm a little drunk. Go back and squint. You
Go back too. Remember."
"Cheng Gao is a petty person and he won't let it go."
"But don't worry, I will help you deal with it."
Wu Nian cupped his fists and saluted, and said, "Thank you, Uncle Li."
After Wu Nian left Li Kun's side, he returned to the small flag house where he was. At this moment, all the soldiers surrounding the house had left.
Only Zhang Sheng, Tieniu, Li Yong, and Wang Gui were left sitting in the open space, looking eagerly ahead, waiting for Wu Nian to come back.
"Brother, you really made me break out in a cold sweat." When Tieniu saw Wu Nian coming back, he stood up, rushed up and gave Wu Nian an iron fist.
Wu Nian immediately covered his chest and grinned in pain. He rolled his eyes and said, "Tieniu. I was not beaten by Cheng Gaoqu, but I was seriously injured by you."
"What's going on when you beat yourself up into a move?" Tieniu was stunned for a moment.
The rest of the people immediately gathered around. They only knew that Wu Nian was fine, but they didn't know what happened. But now they heard about it.
There is still a mystery to this matter.
Wu Nian did not hide anything, and openly told his brothers what happened in the hall.
After everyone heard this, they all took a deep breath.
"Brother, you are so awesome. Under such circumstances, you actually dare to contradict an adult." Tieniu looked at Wu Nian with eyes looking at monsters and said.
"Yes. If it were me, my knees would be weak and I would kneel down to General Cheng Qi. For soldiers, let alone kneeling, kowtow is commonplace." Wang Gui nodded vigorously at the side.
Zhang Sheng said nothing but nodded in agreement.
Only Li Yong frowned.
He felt that Wu Nian was too competitive, which was not a good thing.
But no matter what, it would be great if Wu Nian could be safe. As for whether Wu Nian killed Li Ding, does that matter?
unimportant.
Wu Nian killed Li Ding and got away cleanly.
The entire hundred households were in an uproar.
Although there is no human or physical evidence, Wu Nian has a motive for killing.
This rumor immediately started flying all over the sky.
Someone insisted that Wu Nian killed him.
Some people don't believe that Wu Nian dared to do this.
No matter what, Wu Nian became famous again. Unlike the past when he saved Liu Xiang or bought him, he had a real reputation this time.
