Li Zhenpin knelt on the ground, tears streaming down his face.
"Grandpa, I am really in danger this time. Li Zhi will definitely kill me. You are my grandson, you must save me!"
Li Yousheng looked at his grandson and sighed deeply.
Li Yousheng had a son and a daughter, but the son contracted tuberculosis at a young age and died before he was thirty. A few years later, Li Yousheng's daughter-in-law also died, leaving Li Zhenpin as an only child. Li Yousheng was called grandfather, but in reality
As a father, I really helped Li Zhenpin grow up.
No matter how useless Li Zhenpin was, Li Yousheng did not want to see Li Zhenpin executed.
Li Yousheng closed his eyes and thought for a long time before slowly saying: "Liu Yiyi, the general manager of the Steel Town Engineering Department, is dead."
Li Zhenpin beamed with joy and said loudly: "The Huang family has all escaped, and Liu Yiyi has also died. Now there is no evidence that all of them are dead! Grandpa, you are my biological grandfather! You really saved me!"
Li Yousheng looked at the plate glass on the window, sighed, and said: "Although Liu Yiyi is dead, I still can't save you. Li Zhi's methods are too powerful. I have followed him in doing things all these years. Why?
I can't even understand him. He really is from the stars! Even though there is no witness, I still don't know."
After a pause, Li Yousheng said: "We can't fight Li Zhi. You hide in the truck and leave Tianjin and go to Nanzhili to escape. In the future, if you change your surname in Nanjing, don't go back to Tianjin!"
After hearing Li Yousheng's words, Li Zhenpin felt as if he had been struck by lightning, kneeling on the ground and gaping.
"Grandpa, are you willing to let me go to Nanjing and be bullied?"
Li Yousheng's eyes widened and he shouted angrily: "You took the money to Nanjing and lived a life of plenty of food and clothing. How can you be bullied?"
Li Zhenpin put on a sad look on his face and said: "The powerful people in Nanjing are all gentry. I am a white man hiding in Nanjing anonymously. So what if I have money? If I have too much money, people will miss me, but if I have less money, it will not be enough."
Expenses. When you see a gentleman walking on the road, you have to give way. If you spend a few more taels of silver any month, you are afraid that powerful traitors will come to make things difficult and blackmail you, and you will really have to be a coward for the rest of your life."
"I'm riding a thousand-mile horse in Fanjiazhuang, and I'm hiding a beautiful lady. Everyone lets me know when I'm walking on the road. If anyone doesn't like me, I'll be scolded. As soon as I enter a restaurant or brothel, the boss will rush to greet me.
I won’t leave Fanjiazhuang and live such a useless life!"
Li You said angrily: "Nie Zhan, do you think this is the same as before? Now that the factory in Steel Town has collapsed, and you have more than thirty lives on your hands, do you still want to live a glorious life of kingship and hegemony in Fanjiazhuang?"
Li Zhenpin threw himself on the ground and said, "I won't hide in Nanjing anyway!"
Li Yousheng saw that Li Zhenpin was still so incompetent in the face of disaster. He was so angry that his face turned red and he shouted loudly: "Evil! I'll let you go!"
"I won't go! If you let me go, I will escape too!"
Li Yousheng finally couldn't bear it any longer and slapped Li Zhenpin in the face with his right hand.
Li Zhenpin closed his eyes and waited for Li Yousheng's slap. Even if he was beaten, he would never flinch.
However, Li Yousheng was too doting on this grandson who had no father or mother since he was a child. He slapped Li Zhenpin on the side of the face and stopped abruptly.
Li Yousheng's face turned red from holding back blood, but he still sighed heavily.
"Obstacle, evil obstacle"
Seeing that Li Yousheng was reluctant to beat him, Li Zhenpin wiped his tears and knelt on the ground honestly.
The room where the two of them were was fell into silence for a long time.
After a long time, Li Zhenpin saw that Li Yousheng was silent, so he said: "Grandpa, now that all the parties involved are gone, and Li Zhi doesn't have any evidence, what can he do? He talks about the law every day, how can he do it if our Li family commits a crime?
Arrest me and torture me regardless of the repercussions? Does torture count? How many people have surrendered to torture?"
"Our Li family members are spread across various yamen, and there are not only 100 but also 50 people who earn forty taels a month. If Li Zhi forcibly arrests me for torture, what will these Li family members think? Can Li Zhi not pay attention to the impact?"
"His eyes and ears are Han Jinxin, so he believes Han Jinxin's words so much? If Han Jinxin says I deserve to die, he will execute me? How does he know that this is not someone deliberately setting up a trap to attack the Li family? How does he know that there is not a rift?"
Li Yousheng listened to Li Zhenpin's words and closed his eyes helplessly.
Li Zhenpin was right, but Li Yousheng was really afraid of Li Zhi's methods.
Li Yousheng has followed Li Zhi over the years and has seen Li Zhi's extraordinary ability countless times. Whenever he encounters any problem, Li Zhi can always conjure up various new things to solve the problem like magic. Over the years, the people of Tianjin have become
It is said that Li Zhi descended from the stars. Although Li Yousheng lost all the witnesses this time, Li Yousheng was still worried.
He was worried that Li Zhi would use inhuman means to break his arrangement.
The most appropriate way is for Li Zhenpin to flee to Southern Zhili. However, Li Zhenpin, a criminal, is unwilling to go.
Li Yousheng shook his head helplessly and opened his eyes.
But no matter what, Li Yousheng would not let Li Zhi kill Li Zhenpin. Li Zhenpin was his only son, Li Yousheng, and he, Li Yousheng, could not cut off his descendants at the age of sixty.
"You have been domineering in the engineering department these years, have you ever left any clues?"
When Li Zhenpin saw Li Yousheng saying this, he knew that Li Yousheng was going to confront Li Zhi, and he became happy.
"Grandpa, I work in a systematic way. Every time someone asks me, I give the contractor's information to Liu Yiyi, but I don't say a word, let alone force Liu Yiyi in front of others. Liu Yiyi knows that he can't fight me.
Every time I go to him with information about which contractor, he will choose the last one."
"There is absolutely no evidence from outsiders that I forcibly selected the Huang family to build the factory."
After listening to his grandson's words, Li Yousheng's eyes flashed with a sharp light.
"Okay! Tianjin belongs to Li Zhi and the Li family. Things in Tianjin are not just what Li Zhi says."
Li Yousheng took a breath and said: "Now the Li family is spread all over the yamen, and they are Li Zhi's right-hand men. The reason why Li Zhi sticks to his word in Tianjin is because the people who execute him obey orders. If it weren't for our Li family helping him, Li Zhi,
He carries out Li Zhi's orders without reservation, and intimidates those who want to obey others at his post. How can he have such authority as he does now?"
"You are a member of the Li family. Li Zhi will arrest you because of some unfounded remarks from outsiders. The Li family will not agree. You are the deputy director of the engineering department. You are not directly responsible for the collapse of the factory. Li Zhi has no evidence at all.
If you are forcibly tortured because of a few slanders from outsiders, you are making the entire Li family an enemy."
"There is no proof of this matter. If Li Zhi uses force, he will no longer be the head of the Li family. From now on, Li Zhi will become a loner like the emperor, and his orders will not be able to leave the Duke's mansion."
Li Yousheng rolled his sleeves and walked out of the house. He walked outside and shouted: "Get the car ready and go find Li Dao, the governor of Jilin!"
