The expressions of several Li clan members froze again, and after a moment of hesitation, someone carefully explained: "Mr. Li has another residence, he does not live here..."
"Since he is the clan leader, he should live in Chen Guogong's old residence and he can convince the public. What do you think of the Li clan?" Wei Zijin said lightly, constantly testing the Li clan and carefully observing their reactions.
, and sure enough, they all looked embarrassed.
"The patriarch has always been nostalgic for the old times and felt that he missed the people he saw here, so he didn't want to move here!" Another explanation from the Li family clan members did not sound unreasonable. However, it was precisely his unnecessary explanation that
This made Wei Zijin more certain of his guess.
Seeing things and thinking about people, since she stepped into her father's old residence, she has discovered that the ancient objects placed in the main hall and study room have long since disappeared!
There are no father’s old things here at all, so how can we see things and miss people?!
Recalling what Mr. Li said before, she understood that Mr. Li's appointment as the clan leader was made hastily without any discussion by the entire Li clan in the ancestral hall. The person who appointed the clan leader was none other than him.
It’s Shi Chong, the governor of Zhao County!
The current head of the Li clan is just a puppet with no real power. No wonder he said something that he could not resist in front of the grave of the deceased old patriarch that day!
But Shi Chong was not really so generous. After occupying the Li family's land and house, he instead gave up his father's old house for the Li family to live in!
There is only one possibility that these Li family members can live in their father's former residence and even enjoy tribute tea, and that is that they have been bribed by Shi Chong!
They no longer care about the decline of the Li family, and have become members of Shi Chong's faction. Perhaps they are still secretly listening to Shi Chong's instructions and doing many things that are harmful to the Li family!
Wei Zijin thought of this and did not stay here any longer. He casually said that he was tired of shopping, said goodbye to these Li clan members, and left his father's former residence!
Seeing that Wei Zijin finally left, the Li family members secretly breathed a sigh of relief. They were also unsure about the purpose of her trip. After discussing it for a while, they decided to let the servants report the matter to the governor Shi Chong!
Wei Zijin, who left Chen Guogong's former residence, and Han Ping found Li Yi who was still studying hard in the cold kiln.
Li Yi didn't expect that Wei Zijin would find the place where he lived. He quickly put down the ancient book and wanted to make tea for her to show respect, but he couldn't find an intact tea cup.
Wei Zijin waved his hand, gave a reassuring smile to Li Yi who was in a hurry, and directly explained his purpose.
Sure enough, when she mentioned that several Li family members had moved into the old residence of Chen Guogong, Li Yi said angrily: "They were the ones who colluded with the county governor to occupy our Li family's fields and houses, and they acted in collusion.
When they first heard that something happened to Duke Chen Guo, if they hadn't caused trouble and prevented the old patriarch from searching for who killed Chen Guogong, why would the old patriarch have been so angry that he died? The Li family wouldn't have ended up in such a tragic situation..."
It was exactly what she thought! Wei Zijin sneered, and even though his heart was already boiling with anger, he still asked calmly: "Li Yi, during the time when the county governor was in office, did any other high-ranking official come to Zhao County?"
Li Yi, who was originally angry, calmed down at this time, thought for a moment, shook his head and replied: "No big officials have been here, but I heard that Qin Li mentioned the governor of Yongzhou when he was drunk..." Several people
