With Hong Tao's recent statement, Qi Xiaotong finally felt at ease and suddenly became happy.
At the same time, I also became more convinced of my relationship with him.
Hong Tao naturally didn't know that this unexpected test directly strengthened their relationship. In an instant, their love was stronger than gold.
The Nie family's father and daughter were also moved by his moral integrity and were no longer as entangled as before.
This kind of thing can only be done casually, and it is really not appropriate to force it deliberately.
Okay, let’s put this matter aside and let’s see how to deal with the current matter first.
Hong Tao disapproved of Nie Xishan's decision to stay and take the blame.
Yes, this was a manslaughter caused by my own mistake. How could I let an innocent person take the blame?
A man must be brave and courageous, so how can he live in a sordid manner while harming him?
I would rather die generously than do things that benefit myself at the expense of others!
Therefore, Hong Tao said with a sudden heart: "Since I have done something wrong, I must bear the consequences. Every wrongdoer has his own debtor, and I will never harm your Nie family."
Hearing this, Nie Qinglian couldn't help but praise: "Brother is indeed a courageous hero. He is not comparable to ordinary people."
After that, she advised again: "My brother is a hero of the world, wouldn't it be a pity to lose his life like this? In my sister's opinion, you'd better leave as quickly as possible. The further away you can, the better."
Nie Xishan also said: "Yes, yes, the most important thing is to have a useful life. Boy, you are young and have a long way to go in the future. You really shouldn't stop here."
Let me run away?
That’s okay!
However, there is a big disadvantage in doing this, that is, it will bring consequences to the Nie family and his daughter.
If the government can't find him, he will definitely question them. In this way, the two of them still cannot escape the fate of being arrested. In terms of the result, this is no different from Nie Xishan taking the initiative to take the blame.
It is still the kind of behavior that benefits oneself at the expense of others.
You say, what should we do?
How about... running away together?
The three of them thought of this plan almost at the same time, so after looking at each other, they all nodded tacitly.
Although it is said that it is recommended by the law to bow down to the law and confess guilt, but if there is a chance to survive, who is willing to die for no reason?
Seeing that they wanted to leave, Hong Tao immediately became happy.
The Nie family father and daughter were his saviors. If he left them, it would be equivalent to repaying kindness with evil.
If you do this kind of thing, you will never feel at ease for the rest of your life. Moreover, you will be criticized by thousands of people and despised by thousands of people.
If they can leave with him, all the disadvantages can be solved.
Worries are immediately lifted.
Well, of the thirty-six strategies, walking is the best strategy.
Now that you have decided to leave, pack up quickly to avoid long nights and endless dreams and unnecessary distractions.
"A broken home is worth tens of thousands of dollars, so take away everything you can."
"You know, this is a lifetime inheritance!"
Nie Qingshan muttered as he packed away the pots and pans. After a while of tea, he packed up a lot of large and small bags.
This doesn't look like running away for one's life, it's clearly a daily move!
Hong Tao couldn't stand it any longer, so he tactfully reminded him: "Uncle, I have some financial resources, and I am fully capable of buying a decent asset, so don't bring these things with you. Let's pack lightly.
Okay, don’t waste your time needlessly.”
Seeing what he said, Nie Qinglian echoed: "Yes, daddy, please stop messing around and leave quickly!"
Seeing that both of them were opposed, Nie Qingshan had no choice but to give up.
He sighed softly and put down the package in his hand with reluctance.
"By the way, which direction should we escape to?"
"First stop in Mobei, and then transfer to Qiongzhou from there."
"oh……"
There are still some rough rumors about the Mobei area, but there is no idea about the legendary Qiongzhou.
All I know is that that land is a land of heavenly abundance, unimaginably rich.
Rumors also say that the omnipotent Qi Shaobao is the chief official and shepherd of that place.
As for why Hong Tao chose that place, Nie Qingshan didn't ask too much.
He felt that there was nothing wrong with people walking to higher places, so why not go to desolate places?
After taking some simple rest, the three of them set off under the cover of night.
They never imagined that this year's New Year's Eve would be spent in this way.
However, what surprised them even more was yet to come.
After walking out of the gate, the three of them suddenly discovered that the body of the magistrate had disappeared.
What a strange thing!
He was standing here just now. How come the tea time has passed and ‘he’ has disappeared?
No matter what kind of speculation it is based on, one fact cannot be avoided, that is, someone did it deliberately.
To put it bluntly, someone deliberately stole the body.
Moreover, he is not an ordinary person.
Hong Tao felt that anyone who could do tricks under his nose must be a master.
no!
It is not advisable to stay here for long, you must leave immediately!
In the face of the unknown, Hong Tao did not dare to be careless.
…
The departure of the three people was not made public, only Qi Xiaotong was mentioned.
After she picked up the magistrate's body, she quickly ran towards the direction where the Yamen servant had left.
I must help him solve the troubles left by Hong Tao. Anything that damages his reputation must be completely eliminated.
A virtuous wife brings few disasters.
Isn’t that what the old saying goes?
As for how to solve it, she already has a rough plan.
In short, it is to kill people and silence them, and then artificially create the illusion of being robbed and murdered by bandits.
As long as it is made realistic enough, it can have the effect of confusing the audience.
Let’s talk about murder first.
Now that we have decided on this strategy, we must kill the government officials who have just dispersed. They usually do evil things, so it would not be a pity if they died.
So these people fell.
Until the moment they closed their eyes, they couldn't figure out how they died.
In the field of vision, I saw a vague white shadow flashing across, and the picture in my eyes was frozen here.
Everyone is dead.
It is done cleanly and leaves no trace.
Qi Xiaotong came from a family of officials and was very familiar with the way local officials investigated and handled cases. If she deliberately faked the scene, ordinary officials would not be able to tell.
Unless there is a criminal investigation veteran like Mr. Peng, it will be difficult to find any clues.
Judging from the signs at the scene, the magistrate was captured by bandits and accidentally died in his line of duty.
As for the government officials, they have gained a good reputation because of their sacrifices in loyally protecting the Lord, and there is no problem at all.
Although putting the cart before the horse, it seems to be logical and there are no omissions.
Well, perfect!
