The actions of the third elder really shocked Nan Qing. Nan Qing could never have imagined that the third elder did this to avoid jail. But now that Leng Zijian is still in jail, will this matter go unsolved? What happened to the government?
Will they be allowed to do this?
A Lan raised his eyebrows and said: "We'll put this matter on hold for now. After we find the evidence, we'll lock up shopkeeper Liu and the girl. I believe the three elders will be able to walk in half a month. Even if they don't have to go to jail by then,
Getting beaten up is inevitable."
"Have you already thought about it?" Nan Qing asked with a smile.
How could A-Lan spare the three elders so easily? When the patriarch said that something happened to Leng Zijian, it was the elders who did it to threaten him. He didn't want to believe it before. Now that the three elders said it in person, he realized that he had misunderstood the patriarch.
It turned out that they secretly captured Leng Zijian and then threatened him with Leng Zijian's safety.
A Lan knew that the patriarch did not choose to leave the capital for his own sake. He was too young to be able to afford the Leng family's business. Therefore, the patriarch had to swallow his anger. For the safety of his family and the Leng family's business, the patriarch would compromise.
.
I thought they could just let it go, but I didn't expect that they would actually use a trick to frame Leng Zijian. Several elders should be responsible for what they have done. Because they are members of the Leng family, they can go to jail, but this slap will definitely be indispensable.
"They have done so much, how could I just stop?" Alan said.
"When will I pick up Leng Zi and see you?" Nan Qing asked.
"After lunch later, I will personally go to the Yamen and take him to the Leng Mansion. Only when the clan leader sees Leng Zi will he really feel relieved," A Lan said.
"I will go back with you then. Anyway, there is still some unfinished business in the Yamen." Nan Qing said.
After returning to Leng Mansion, Nan Qing went directly to the master's house, while A-Lan took A-Yu to the study.
"What have you gained from this trip?" Ayu asked.
"The third elder personally admitted what they did to Leng Zijian, so I will go to the Yamen soon and bring Leng Zijian back." A Lan said.
"Did the three of them admit it?" Ayu asked in surprise.
"The third elder knows that even if they don't admit it, I will investigate and find out. Rather than waiting for me to question them first, it's better to confess first." A Lan said.
"What? You asked someone to capture the three of them? Aren't they still injured?" Ayu asked.
"You are right, they are still injured, so they cannot be sent to the Yamen now. I will go and bring Leng Zijian back first, and then send the three elders to the Yamen in half a month." A Lan said.
.
"Are you going to send the three of them to jail?" Ayu asked.
"It's just a lesson to them, it's not as serious as going to jail." A Lan said.
"Wouldn't it be bad if the Leng family's affairs were brought to the Yamen? You just handed over the gold mine business to them, and now you have to punish them. Are you really not worried?" Ayu asked.
"Ayu, wouldn't it be better to test them at this moment?" Alan said.
Ayu finally reacted and asked: "You didn't mention this matter before, but today the third elder took the initiative to mention it. He did it to avoid making the matter a big deal, and you did it to test them?"
"That's right, that's what he meant. He didn't want to go to jail so he took the initiative to mention this matter. I can't spare them just because he is from the Leng family. I can just test Ziqi and the others to see if this matter will affect their business.
." A Lan said.
"Now Shopkeeper Liu and the girl are already at the Yamen. It's up to you to send the three elders to the Yamen." Ayu said.
"Don't worry, their wounds haven't healed yet. Once they heal, they can withstand another hundred sticks." Alan said.
"A hundred sticks?" Ayu asked.
"You think it's too little? That's right. After being beaten, you don't have to go to jail. Of course, you can't get around them easily. How about two hundred sticks." A Lan said.
"One hundred sticks is too much for me, can the three of them bear it?" Ayu asked.
Ayu was worried that a hundred sticks would kill people. If they were beaten to death, Ziqi and the other three would not take care of business seriously at all.
"Nan Qing went to check the pulses of the three of them. Don't worry. They are in good health and they should be able to withstand the two hundred sticks." A Lan said.
After several people had a meal, Ah Lan and Nan Qing went to the Yamen together.
Because of Murong Xi's explanation, Leng Zijian left the prison long ago and was placed in a clean courtyard.
A-Lan was a little surprised. She thought Leng Zijian would be placed in prison, and she was still worried about whether Leng Zijian could endure it.
"Master, you are here." Leng Zijian asked.
"Okay, come with me." Alan said.
Leng Zi didn't say anything. After cleaning up briefly, he followed behind A Lan.
A-Lan went to see the prefect, who was very polite to A-Lan and said to him: "Pluto Princess has already told me before that Leng Zijian can leave at any time."
"Sir, there are three other people related to this case who were injured. Once the wounds are better, I will personally send them over." A Lan said.
"I would like to ask Master A Lan, what do you plan to do with these three people?" asked the prefect.
"This incident is actually a farce of the Leng family. It should not have come to the Yamen, but if not, how could they learn a lesson?" A Lan said.
"What do you plan to do, Master A Lan?" asked the prefect.
"The three people I'm sending over need to be beaten two hundred times. It's up to you to take care of the others." A Lan said.
"I understand." The prefect said.
"If there are no problems, Lord Magistrate, I will take Zi Jian and leave." A Lan said.
The prefect waved his hand and asked them to leave the yamen. After leaving the yamen gate, A Lan and Zi saw the carriage.
Nan Qing said: "You go back, I will go to Leng's house after I finish handling the matter."
A-Lan nodded and asked the coachman to drive the carriage and leave the Yamen.
After the prefect learned that A-Lan was gone, he wrote a note and had it delivered to Hades' Mansion.
After Murong Xi read the note, he smiled and burned the note.
Rushi asked curiously: "Miss, what happened in the Yamen?"
"A-Lan should have investigated what happened back then, and he has already taken Leng Zijian away. The prefect just mentioned that A-Lan will come with three elders in a few days," Murong Xi said.
"Miss has already investigated clearly, otherwise the girl and shopkeeper Liu would not be sent to prison. You want to give Ah Lan a chance to investigate clearly on his own. It seems that this Ah Lan is not stupid at all. He investigated clearly so quickly.
" Ru Shi asked.
"The three elders personally sent Leng Zijian to the prison. Shopkeeper Liu has been arrested. They must have received the news. Although the three elders asked shopkeeper Liu to take action, he may not trust shopkeeper Liu. Therefore, after shopkeeper Liu was arrested,
, he was worried that shopkeeper Liu would reveal himself for his own safety. If the investigation was clear, he would be involved in a lawsuit. Therefore, he would definitely tell A-Lan about the incident, hoping that A-Lan could forgive him and not pursue the case.
I think A-Lan will not be able to swallow this breath, and will definitely send the three elders to the Yamen to be punished. Although they do not have to go to jail, it is better to let them taste some suffering." Murong Xi said.
Murong Xi's analysis was correct. The third elder had indeed planned it early, and he would confess to Alan when he found the opportunity. This is the brilliance of the third elder's high combat power, everything was planned just right.
After A-Lan brought Leng Zijian back to the house, he said to him: "Go to the guest room to take a bath, change clothes and rest for a while. I will take you to see grandpa later."
"Master..." Leng Zijian said movedly.
"Okay, let's talk about it later." A Lan said.
The servant took Leng Zijian to the guest room. After bathing and changing clothes, and eating some food, he was taken to A Lan's side courtyard.
A Lan led Leng Zi into the house. Although the patriarch was fine, he was still very weak. He had been in bed to recuperate for the past few days. After hearing the sound, he opened his eyes.
The patriarch saw Leng Zijian next to A Lan at a glance. He stood up slightly and shouted excitedly: "Zijian, is that you?"
"Grandpa, are you okay?" Leng Zijian said after hearing the old man's voice.
The clan leader waved, and Leng Zi walked forward. The old man stood up slowly and said, "It's great that you're okay. I'm really worried."
"Grandpa, don't worry. It was the young master who saved me. He went to the Yamen and brought me back." Leng Zijian said.
"Yamen? Why are you in the Yamen? Did they report the case?" asked the patriarch.
"That's right, I was taken to prison by people from the Yamen a few days ago. Not long after, the young master went to the Yamen for questioning." Leng Zijian said.
The clan leader looked at A-Lan, who said: "Clan leader, I didn't bribe the government to let him out. The Hades Mansion first found the woman and shopkeeper Liu and sent them to the Yamen. When I went to the clan, the third elder followed
I confessed the matter, and then I went to the Yamen to pick him up."
"So it turns out that it's really what you suspected. Has Zi Jian been framed?" the clan leader asked.
"That's right, that woman only appeared on the mountain road when she was bribed by someone, and the dead man was not the woman's husband, but a local ruffian. Zijian didn't beat him to death at all, but was killed by the woman
She was poisoned. The woman has confessed that the gangsters wanted to take advantage of her and steal the money. Therefore, she was poisoned by the woman's trick. At first, I thought it was the three elders who were worried about being exposed and harmed others. It turned out to be
We misunderstood them." Alan said.
"So, Zi Jian didn't kill anyone at all?" the clan leader said.
"That's right, Zi Jian just knocked him unconscious. The woman only said that the man was beaten to death by him because of Jian Li," said A Lan.
"So it turns out that the three elders took great pains to make me obey their orders. They may be worried that I will tell you everything after I wake up, so they did this." The patriarch said.
"Grandpa, Zi Jian failed to live up to expectations, which makes grandpa worried." Leng Zijian said.
"This has nothing to do with Zi Jian, it's because the three elders are too overbearing," the clan leader said.
"Patriarch, it's my fault that I didn't believe your words at first. I thought you were lying to me. I didn't expect this to be true," A-Lan said.
"You mean I told you about the three elders threatening me?" the patriarch asked.
"That's right, you have been traveling around with grandpa. In my heart, the patriarch will not be threatened by the three elders. Even if they threaten you, you will not compromise." Alan thought for a while and said.
