Axiu stuck out her tongue and stopped dwelling on this issue.
Zheng Rongrong on the side looked at the interaction between the two of them and couldn't help but feel a little envious.
But what's more in her heart is concern for herself, her father, and even the entire Zheng family.
Lin Mengya also noticed this.
"Don't worry, there should be no problem on your father's side."
As for the reason why Mr. Zheng suddenly left, Lin Mengya did not fully disclose it to Zheng Rongrong. She only said that there was something urgent at home.
After all, being targeted by his own father and paving the way for his own younger brother would be unacceptable to anyone.
"I don't know when my father will come back. Now that Zheng Luxi is dead, my second uncle will definitely not let it go. I'm afraid of what danger my father will encounter."
Although Zheng Rongrong is extremely close to her maternal grandfather's family, she has still depended on her father for many years.
Lin Mengya was also worried that if Zheng Rongrong knew the truth, she might be heartbroken.
But this was a sin committed by Zheng Congen, and he must bear the consequences himself.
She was afraid that the girl would continue to worry, so she took the initiative and said, "Why don't you come with me to see Jiang De first?"
Mentioning Jiang De, Zheng Rongrong couldn't help but show a bit of anger in her eyes.
There are some things that she only realizes after thinking about them.
Jiang De actually dared to intercept and kill the person who was delivering fabrics to the ancestor of the Gong family. If the Gong family really wanted to pursue him, he could use the Baili family to escape.
Then the Zheng family will bear the brunt and become the target of the Gong family's attacks.
What's more, Zheng Luxi was in charge of the robbery of the caravans, and they couldn't get away from it at all.
And once the Zheng family and the Gong family are at odds with each other, the Jiang family can take the opportunity to grow bigger.
What a vicious plot to lend a knife to kill someone!
She is extremely lucky now that Sister Su and the others did not jump to conclusions before.
Otherwise, the Zheng family will be in danger.
Jiang De was locked in the stable in the backyard of the inn.
At this moment, he doesn't have the high-spirited demeanor he had just now.
He was dragged all the way to the stable.
Now, the gorgeous Chaoyun brocade is stained with dust, and the bun is messy. The whole person looks worse than a beggar on the street.
But there was no fear in his eyes, only endless anger and hatred.
It wasn't until that bitch Su Mei appeared in front of him openly that he finally couldn't bear it anymore.
"Let me go! You two bitches!" As soon as he finished scolding, Axiu stepped forward with a cold face and kicked him hard.
"No wonder I have to do human affairs, it turns out I don't know how to speak human words!"
Lin Mengya couldn't help but tilt her head and glanced at Axiu.
This little girl was really brought up to be quite delicate and savage by her.
In fact, Axiu didn't have much strength, but Jiang De couldn't stand being humiliated by a little girl like this.
He just had a gloomy expression on his face, staring at them like a poisonous snake.
"Since you have fallen into my hands, you'd better answer whatever I ask you. Otherwise, I have thousands of ways to make you tell the truth."
Jiang De had to admit that even though he looked down on women at the beginning, at this point, he understood his situation.
There is a burst of anger in my heart, but now I don't have a chance to explode.
"Do you think you can get away if you arrest me? Humph! I, the Jiang family, are not a bunch of losers like the Zheng family!"
"Jiang De! How did your family become prosperous back then? Do you have to tell me again?"
Zheng Rongrong was so angry that she raised her eyes and scolded her.
"When the Jiang family had no place to settle down, it was my ancestors who gave you the opportunity to settle down and live a life. Now, not only do you not want to repay, you are also trying to divert the trouble eastwards, so that our Zheng family will take the blame for you. Your conscience will be eaten by dogs.
Is it done?”
"This is the rule of the world, those who are capable come first. Your Zheng family was glorious back then, but now that you can't hold on to this family fortune, you should abdicate as soon as possible and make way for someone more worthy!"
Lin Mengya stopped Zheng Rongrong.
It's useless to argue with people like them, even if the words are dry.
"Who told you that this Chao Yun brocade is what our Gong family wants?"
Lin Mengya asked coldly, Jiang De was obviously stunned, and a hint of guilt flashed in his eyes, but Lin Mengya caught it.
Sure enough, Jiang De knew everything.
"How did I know that this is what your Gong family wants? If you want to know, just ask the businessman who sold it to me."
"You don't know? That's strange. Although Chaoyun brocade is considered expensive, the business has been very close since the Gong family opened the market. And this businessman who made Chaoyun brocade for us is also one of them. And he
We were afraid that we would be in a hurry, but we were heading towards Yunjin alone with these horses. Why did the bandit who robbed the road not kill others but specifically kill him?"
"How do I know this? Maybe he was too flamboyant and people thought he was weak, so he was kidnapped."
"There may be something for you
Maybe you don’t know very well, but when you were chasing him, one of the guys who was responsible for protecting him was a member of our palace family. He survived the disaster and stayed here to recuperate. After he was injured, he has been secretly investigating this incident.
Something. Jiang De, if you have the ability to go against our Gong family, are you ready to bear the Gong family's anger?"
"impossible!"
Jiang De opened his eyes wide and retorted.
Those people were obviously killed and then thrown off the cliff. There was no way there were any survivors.
Yes! This must be her deceiving herself! .??.??
After thinking about it, Jiang De regained his previous composure.
"If you have evidence, just bring it out."
"You are really stubborn, bring people here."
She stepped aside, and not long after, someone walked in front of them, supporting a young man.
When he saw Lin Mengya, the sickly young man seemed very excited.
"Sir! I finally see you alive!"
Lin Mengya nodded kindly towards the young man.
"Xiao Zhan, whatever you know, you can tell me now."
"Yes, sir!"
Xiaozhan's eyes were red, especially after he recognized that the man who was thrown into the stable was his enemy, and he wanted to rush up and kill him with his own hands.
"Two months ago, I followed the order of the Fourth Young Master to find someone to make a batch of Chaoyun Brocade for my ancestor. Originally, the first batch was made at the beginning of last month. Xiao Xiao and Shopkeeper Wu wanted to send it out first.
I went to show the tricks to the fourth young master. Unexpectedly, I was intercepted and killed by a group of bandits on the way! The younger one was lucky. He fell off a cliff when he was escaping, but he saved his life. And shopkeeper Wu and his
Several guys were first hacked to death with knives and axes, and then thrown off the cliff. Xiao Xiao was unwilling to accept it, so he kept looking for clues secretly. Later, Xiao Xiao found out that these people usually do not hurt others.
He only extorted some money. I was puzzled at the time, but later I realized that it was those Chao Yun Jin horses that had caused the trouble."
Xiao Zhan coughed violently several times, but kept staring at Jiang De fiercely.
"I originally wanted to sneak into the bandits and find out about this matter. But I didn't expect that they were all poisoned to death overnight, and the Chao Yun brocade horses were missing. I checked many ways and found out where they were.
A concubine of the bandit leader found a letter. It said that someone wanted to buy shopkeeper Wu's life at a high price. And he must bring back the pieces of Chaoyun Brocade intact."
Having said this, Jiang De could no longer deny it.
Whoever owns these batches of Chaoyun Brocade is the culprit.
He also wanted to be stubborn and continue to the end. But he soon understood that the Gong family would not attack without reason.
"What exactly do you want to do?"
Jiang De is no longer as arrogant and unscrupulous as before.
He attacked the Gong family and openly declared war on the Gong family.
Even the Baili family would never risk completely offending the Gong family to support him.
"This is supposed to be me asking you, what do you want to do?"
Her eyes were like daggers, fixed on him.
Suddenly, Jiang De felt like he was being seen through and had nowhere to hide.
"I, I was just obsessed for a moment and fell in love with these pieces of brocade."
"Oh? If that's the case, then I don't need to ask anymore."
Jiang De felt relieved when he heard what he said.
But what she said next made Jiang De's hair stand on end.
"I can't give you this gift, so I can only give you something in exchange for something. I heard that Chao Yunjin's skin is as smooth as a human being. Why don't you, Master Jiang, donate your body and let me compare it.
"
Her tone was extremely calm, as if peeling off someone's skin was just as simple as taking off a piece of clothing.
But Jiang De was frightened until he saw a man next to him holding a small and sharp scimitar in his hand. He was so frightened that he collapsed into a ball.
That knife was used by butchers to skin animals. He tried desperately to escape, but that man was very powerful.
He was grabbed at once, and then his sleeves were lifted.
"ah--"
The screams mixed with fear and pain startled everyone around him.
Jiang De's face was as pale as a sheet of paper, and he was sweating all over his head in pain.
In front of him, there was a piece of bright red human skin.
Axiu seemed to have remembered something very interesting, and said with a smile, "You can't tell from just this little bit, why not peel off his whole skin. I heard that the barbarians in the northwest did this, and their tents
Outside, there are whole dried human skins hanging. The more human skins there are, the more brave and skilled the person is."
The man responsible for skinning immediately answered with a smile.
"Girls are still knowledgeable, so I, my old master, will show you my skills today."
As he spoke, he went to grab Jiang De's hair. At this moment, Jiang De was trembling as if he had seen a ghost.
"You guys, let me go, I beg you, let me go!"
He finally understood that in the eyes of the people in front of him, his life was not as valuable as a dog.
