064 The flag of righteousness is not easy to talk about
To rescue the Lin family from the current predicament, Tang Yue alone is not enough, there is another key figure - Zhao Dahai.
Zhao Dahai is a disciple of the Lin family with a foreign surname. He has been with the elder since he was young. Although he has mediocre qualifications, is not very good at talking, and has a dull temper, he is extremely serious in his work and has always been loyal to the Lin family.
The Lin family was grateful for his loyalty. Not only did they receive better treatment than ordinary disciples with foreign surnames, they even arranged his marriage themselves. Then when Zhao Dahai became old and frail, they even arranged for him to have a free life as a mountain guard.
job, and his daughter Zhao Nannan, who is only sixteen years old, also enjoys similar treatment as the children of the Lin family.
Logically speaking, it is impossible for a person like this to betray the Lin family.
However, after having a detailed understanding of the Lin family's recent experiences, Lin Ze roughly knew what was going on... Zhao Nannan disappeared more than a month ago, that is, when Zhao Dahai came forward to testify for the Lou family,
On the same day that he was accused of killing Lou Juncai, Zhao Nannan disappeared and no one has seen her since.
If what he expected was correct, then Zhao Nannan was most likely kidnapped by the Lou family, who used this to threaten Zhao Dahai.
Although it is a very common method, it is more effective because it is common to the public. After all, Zhao Dahai had a daughter in middle age, and his wife died of illness not long after the daughter was born, so he loved Zhao Nannan extremely.
If the Lou family really controls Zhao Nannan, it is normal for Zhao Dahai to betray the Lin family for the sake of his daughter.
There was just one thing that made Lin Ze a little confused: Lou Juncai had been dead for nearly eight months, but his body was kept "intact". It was obvious that after he and Lin Yao left, Lou Juncai's body
It was picked up by Zhao Dahai, and then handed over to the Lou family and sealed in a special method as a trump card against the Lin family.
But wouldn't this mean that Zhao Dahai had betrayed the Lin family eight months ago?
If the time is not equal, it is unscientific.
Lin Ze listened to the explanations of the people around him and analyzed the whole story of the incident, feeling a little overwhelmed.
The most difficult thing for the Lin family right now is that from the beginning, the Lou family identified Lin Ze as the murderer who killed Lou Juncai for no reason. This gave the Lou family a chance to make a fuss, and then through various designs, they gradually allowed themselves to occupy the moral high ground.
, as long as the Lin family does not hand over Lin Ze, the Lou family can naturally take action against the Lin family.
However, as long as it can be proven that Zhao Dahai has been bribed by the Lou family, then Lou Juncai was killed by Lin Ze because he secretly entered the back of the Lin family and plotted against Lin Yao.
It was Lou Juncai who wanted to do evil first, so it was natural for Lin Ze to kill him. No one could say "no".
In this way, the Lou family's banner of righteousness is gone, and the Lin family's predicament is at least half resolved.
Although even without the banner of great righteousness, given that the Lou family currently has the royal family of Jin and the Ye family as backers, it would not be a problem to deal with the Lin family. If it were an ordinary small family, it would not even need a banner of great righteousness at all.
However, after two hundred years of development, the Lin family has basically taken shape. It is not the kind of character that can be bullied casually. Especially the Lin family has a firm ally, the Wang family. As a century-old Confucian family, the Wang family has made countless contributions to the Jin State. Even if the Jin State
The royal family also treated him with great courtesy. Although he was not as powerful as the five major aristocratic families, he should not be underestimated.
If the Lou family really dares to unreasonably unite with the Ye family and the Jin royal family to deal with the Lin family, then the Wang family will inevitably intervene. And once the Wang family enters this battle, the Yan family, one of the five aristocratic families who are related to the Wang family, may not
I will sit back and do nothing.
As the saying goes, one move can affect the whole body. By that time, the fight between two second-rate families will most likely evolve into a war between first-rate families, which will be extremely detrimental to the stability of the Jin State.
Obviously, the Jin royal family would never let this happen.
Therefore, the Lou family’s banner of righteousness must exist.
But the question now is, how can the Lin family prove that Zhao Dahai has already taken refuge with the Lou family to frame the Lin family, or even make him talk back?
"As long as we find Zhao Nannan, maybe there will be no problem." A young disciple of the Lin family suddenly said.
"Zhao Nannan has been missing for so long, where are you going to find her?" Lin Ze rolled his eyes at him.
The latter was speechless.
Not only Lin Ze had thought about this method to find Zhao Nannan and get Zhao Dahai to retaliate, but the Lin family elders had already been doing it before he came back, but they didn't have any clue at all. Even after searching the entire Tianhe City, they couldn't find it.
Zhao Nannan, it was as if this girl had just disappeared from Tianhe City.
"It won't disappear!" Suddenly, Lin Ze stood up and said seriously, "The reason why Zhao Dahai betrayed the Lin family was because of Zhao Nannan, and before this matter comes to an end, if the Lou family wants to control Zhao Dahai, they will definitely let him
Zhao Nannan is alive. Not only is she alive, she must live well, and Zhao Dahai must be able to see her every day, so Zhao Nannan must be somewhere in Tianhe City!"
"The Lou family?" someone asked.
Lin Ze shook his head, "I'm afraid not. You are all familiar with Nannan. She has a strong personality. If she knows that she has fallen into the hands of the Lou family, she will use it to threaten her father. What she wants to do most.
She must be trying to escape, but if she can't escape, she will most likely choose to commit suicide to save her father's life."
Everyone thought about it and couldn't help but nod. These people present were all young disciples of the Lin family. They also had a lot of contact with Zhao Nannan on weekdays. Everyone was familiar with her temperament.
"In other words, maybe until now, Sister Nannan doesn't know that she has been kidnapped?" Lin Yao asked.
"Well, this should be the most likely, and I'm afraid only Zhao Dahai knows the truth..." At this point, Lin Ze looked at everyone, "Zhao Dahai is currently staying at the Lou family, and there is someone sent to the family.
Keep an eye on him?"
"Yes, but he never came out."
Lin Ze frowned immediately, "I haven't come out before, so this shouldn't be possible..."
"By the way, Ninth Brother, I suddenly remembered something." At this moment, a girl said, "Just nine months ago, not long after we came back from the dark forest, Nannan seemed to be seriously ill.
Her behavior became a little strange."
The girl who spoke was Lin Ze’s cousin, Lin Yi.
"What kind of strange method?" Lin Ze asked quickly.
Lin Yi touched her chin and recalled for a while, "Well, how should I put it, she doesn't seem to remember much about the past. Sometimes when I talk to her about some past events, she hesitates and can't explain clearly, and even talks to her about it.
My relationship is not very close either... At first I thought it was the sequelae of her serious illness and didn't pay much attention to it, but now that I think about it, I always feel that something is wrong."
Lin Ze's heart suddenly moved, and he said in a deep voice: "It seems that Nannan should have been transferred to someone else nine months ago."
"Switch the package?" Everyone was stunned.
Lin Ze nodded, "The art of painting skin. Probably when we didn't know it, Nannan was kidnapped by people from the Lou family, and then the Lou family sent a woman with a similar figure to Nannan to dress up like Nannan through the art of skin painting.
, that’s why cousin Lin Yi feels that Nannan’s behavior is a bit weird...but this can also explain why Zhao Dahai has never left the front door of Lou’s house.”
It can also explain the truth behind Zhao Dahai's betrayal of the Lin family eight months ago.
