A Lan did not expect that the three elders would use Shopkeeper Liu to contact the woman. The three elders were indeed treacherous. Even if the woman died, it had nothing to do with them. He knew early on that the three elders were ruthless, and killing people and silencing them was not a good idea for them.
It has become a daily routine.
It seems that they have been prepared for a long time. Before he dealt with the clan affairs, they had arranged for shopkeeper Liu to go to Yanyu Tower to meet a certain woman. Although he had not yet dealt with the people in the mansion, he promised that the information would not be exposed.
In other words, the three elders had already been alert.
If he hadn't been discovered by Princess Pluto's people, he would never have noticed that Shopkeeper Liu had gone to Yanyu Tower.
"They asked Shopkeeper Liu to go to Yanyu Tower to test it out, but you really didn't notice it and we didn't take any action. They will definitely think that we were kept in the dark. If they get the news from the clan, I believe
They will take action immediately. When they take action, we will arrest them directly and we will not dare to deny them even if we try them," Murong Xi said.
"Yes, what should I do next?" Alan asked.
"Take good care of your parents, and you can take them back to your house. Also, deal with those people in your house as soon as possible," Murong Xi said.
"yes."
After A-Lan finished speaking, he went directly to the other courtyard. Seeing that A-Lan came over when he was free, the Leng family's master and his wife were surprised and said, "Has the Nan family's matter been resolved?"
The Leng family master and his wife thought that A Lan was still dealing with the Nan family affairs. They lived in a very quiet courtyard and were not in a hurry to go back. Since living in Fengtian Sect, they enjoyed this kind of life very much and felt that it was better than the capital city.
Come, a quiet life is more suitable for them.
"The Nan family's matter has been settled long ago, and now we are dealing with the Leng family's matter. Earth-shaking changes have taken place in the clan, and even the clan leader has been threatened." A Lan sighed and said.
"What? Something happened to the clan?" the Leng family master asked.
"Father, in fact, since my grandfather passed away, the clan has been very dissatisfied with the clan leader and me taking care of the business. More than ten years ago, three elders discovered a gold mine in the northern suburbs. However, they did not hide the gold mine.
, but told several elders in the clan. However, other clan members did not know about it, only a few elders knew about it. When I was checking the accounts, I accidentally stumbled into Jin Yuzhai’s study and found shopkeeper Jing’s
Corpse. It turned out that the three elders wanted to win over Shopkeeper Jing, but Shopkeeper Jing did not agree, so they killed him and silenced him. Several elders in the clan knew about these things. Including the clan leader, Zi Jian was set up by them.
Trap, and then use Zi Jian to threaten the clan leader." A Lan told the Leng family master about the investigation during this period.
The master of the Leng family sat aside blankly. Over the years, he had never taken care of business, and Yao'er had always hoped that he could take back the jade medal of the family from A-Lan. Unfortunately, during A-Lan's absence, the business
It was a mess that he took care of.
Seeing that A-Lan supported the Leng family by himself, he felt gratified for his father. After the Fengtian Sect incident, A-Lan seemed to have grown a lot. The person he needed to thank should be his master. If it were not his master, A-Lan might still be lacking.
Order something.
It turns out that so many things have happened over the years, and if it hadn't been for A-Lan's investigation, no one might have known about it for a lifetime. If he had let himself handle this matter, he might have handled it in a mess.
"Zijian was framed by them? How dare they do this? As an elder of the Leng family, how can he do this? Wait, I met the shopkeeper of Jin Yuzhai a few days ago. What is going on?"
The master said.
"The shopkeeper Jin Yuzhai my father met was fake. Shopkeeper Jing had a fellow villager. He went to the capital to seek refuge with shopkeeper Jing, and shopkeeper Jing took him in. Later, three elders hoped that he could get shopkeeper Jing drunk, and they planned to steal a copy of the account book.
He originally refused to agree, but was threatened by three elders because of his wife. Later, he was tricked into drinking with shopkeeper Jing, but he didn't expect shopkeeper Jing to be poisoned. He was frightened and wanted to report it to the official. Although he was the poisoner,
But he didn't know that the wine was highly poisonous. As a result, the three elders continued to threaten him, not only telling his wife's secrets, but also confusing right and wrong, saying that he was jealous of shopkeeper Jing and assassinated him. There was no way, he couldn't fight with him.
As a shopkeeper, he could only bury Shopkeeper Jing in the wall of the study. What happened to Zi Jian was even more abominable. You know that Zi Jian would go to the shop every month to check the accounts because it was very late and it was already midnight when he went back. It happened to be
When he met a woman injured on the roadside, he kindly rescued her. However, the woman was with the three elders, and they not only plotted against Zi Jian, but also used Zi Jian to threaten the clan leader." A Lan murmured.
murmured.
"Back then, your grandfather once said that they were my cousins and they should be taken care of. It was also because of your grandfather that they opened a house outside. Otherwise, they would all have to live in the clan. I didn't expect that they would not
You know how to be grateful, but you have gone even harder and done so many excessive things. When your grandfather chose you to inherit the family business, to be honest, even I couldn’t believe it. I knew that I was not capable of inheriting, and I thought my father would hand over the business to the third child.
.In the end, he handed over the business to you without hesitation. You were only five years old at that time, how convincing it was. I could understand their unwillingness, and I was secretly compensating them. I didn’t expect that after so many years, they were still restless.
." The master of the Leng family also said.
"Father, in fact, what happened to you back then was reported by them after they bribed the beggar. Otherwise, how could it spread so much? And this time after I came back from Fengtian Sect, they did the same thing. Not only did they say that I kidnapped you,
He also tortured the second wife of the Leng family." A Lan said.
After hearing what A-Lan said, Mrs. Leng said nervously: "A-Lan, did you really hit her? Let the matter be over. You must not do anything to her. After all, she is also Ah Feng's mother. You let Ah Feng
How will I face her when Feng comes back?"
Alan said helplessly: "Mother, how could I do this? It's just a rumor, how could I do this?"
"Father, because she needed to recuperate, I sent her to the backyard. I wonder what you think?" Alan asked.
"If she likes to stay in the backyard, let her live there. If she plans to leave, I won't force her to stay," said Alan's father.
"I'll leave her to you to deal with. I have other things to do." A Lan said.
"It stands to reason that she should be returned to the clan, and she should accept the clan rules in the ancestral hall." The young master of the Leng family said.
"Clan rules? That's what I originally planned, but her body is too weak. If she goes back, I'm afraid a stick will kill her. And she already knows how to repent, why don't I give her a chance
What? For Ah Feng’s sake, I planned to wait until she got better before sending her to the clan. But later I discovered that something was wrong with the clan, so I asked her to recover well and concentrate on investigating the clan. Elder Jian has come out now.
Elder Qin, Elder Jiang and others have done too many harmful things without telling him. I'm worried that the people in the clan will beat her to death indiscriminately," said Ah Lan.
"A-Lan did the right thing and cannot send her back to her clan." A-Lan's mother said.
Ah Lan knew that her mother was kind, but she couldn't just watch her mother die because of Ah Feng.
"What does father think?" Alan asked.
"I understand, just leave her to me and you go and do your work." A-Lan's father said.
"I am here to pick up my father and mother this time. You can follow me and help me take care of the house." A Lan said.
The master and his wife of the Leng family simply packed up their things and followed A Lan back to the Leng Mansion. As a result, as soon as the master and his wife of the Leng family stepped into the gate, those few people planned to report the news to the three elders. A Lan's subordinates had sent a message to the three elders early in the morning.
They caught them and reported the news to A-Lan. After A-Lan sent his father and mother back to the courtyard, he asked his subordinates to take the three people to the front hall.
"Master, I wonder why you brought this slave here?" the maid who was taking care of the second lady said in a daze.
"If you weren't taking care of the second wife in the backyard, why would you go to the small gate?" A Lan asked.
"I, the second lady doesn't need me right now. I just want to go out and buy some necessary things." the maid said.
"There are only two people around the second lady to take care of her. What should you do if you leave and have something important to do temporarily?" A Lan asked.
"The second lady doesn't need me to enter the room, it's enough for her to have Huan'er by her side." the maid explained.
"Do you need to go out through the back door when you go shopping? And you two, tell me what you want to say." Alan asked.
The other two servants knelt on the ground and did not dare to say a word. Only this maid kept contradicting A Lan and explained that she had nothing else to do.
"Master, I really have nothing else to do. If the master doesn't let me go out, I won't go out," the maid said.
A Lan murmured: "It's not that I won't let you leave the house, but you can go out through the main door freely, why do you have to go out through the small door? If we guess wrong, you are planning to bring the master and his wife back.
Please tell the three elders about the matter, right?"
The maid did not expect that A-Lan would guess it. After listening to A-Lan's words, she quickly lowered her head, and even the servant who originally lowered his head began to tremble slightly.
"Master, we didn't do this on purpose. It's just that we have something in the hands of the elders. If we don't tell them the news, they won't show mercy." One of the servants said to Alan with a slight trembling.
Alan asked: "What did they use to arrest you?"
"Master, please make the decision for us. I owe a gambling debt. The Leng family has rules that do not allow servants to gamble. Although the elder paid off the debt for me, he threatened me that if I don't help them, I will tell you about the debt."
One of the men said.
When another servant saw what the servant on the side had said, he hurriedly said: "The younger one and the second son went to Widow Zhang's tavern to drink. I don't know why I drank too much. When I opened my eyes, I saw Widow Zhang sleeping in my bed."
I thought no one would know about this, but I didn’t expect that the three elders had already known about it and threatened to tell my wife if I didn’t help them.”
After listening to his words, A Lan understood that he must have been plotted.
"Who is the second son?" Alan asked doubtfully.
"We grew up together and lived in the compound together when we were young," the servant said.
A-Lan was already sure that someone was plotting against him. I'm afraid he didn't do anything that night. Someone must have drugged the wine, otherwise he wouldn't have been unconscious after drinking it.
