The eldest son of the red mansion

Lin Zhixiao came to the front hall and sat on the main seat, with his own soldiers lined up on both sides.

For a moment, a sound of chaotic footsteps was heard from behind, and a middle-aged man came out with two servants.This middle-aged man looks so good-looking, this is Li An.

As soon as Li An entered the front hall, he saw Lin Zhixiao sitting in the main seat, and he felt displeased for a while, but he still smiled and said: "I don't know who opened it, it turned out to be the housekeeper Lin, sorry, sorry. Please forgive me." Seeing that Lin Zhixiao didn't talk to him, he sat down on the guest seat next to him.

Seeing him sitting down, Lin Zhixiao said to him, "I'm here for nothing else, but someone wants to see you."

Li An said: "I don't know who is here. It's such a big air to ask Brother Lin to come to me."

Lin Zhixiao gave him a disdainful look: "I heard that Wangjiatun summoned disaster victims, and my uncle is in trouble day and night, so why don't you come to condolences to the victims in person, and now you are on the stage, waiting for Manager Li to answer."

Li An heard that Lin Zhixiao's tone was not kind just now, and now he heard that the uncle is coming, and asked Lin Zhixiao to call him. At this time, he didn't know what happened, and it might be bad.

Li An immediately got up and went to Lin Zhixiao's side, bowed to salute, and handed over a bank note from his sleeve, saying: "Brother Lin, the younger brother's work has been a bit poor this time, but the younger brother can't help but look at Brother Lin." Say a few kind words in front of the uncle. The younger brother is very grateful."

Lin Zhixiao knew that when he said that he couldn't help it, he was implying that there was someone behind him, and everyone would be better off after taking the money, as long as the above was full, everything would be fine.

Lin Zhixiao couldn't help laughing, this Li An is really naive, it's really reckless to dare to threaten him at this time.

Seeing a smile on Lin Zhixiao's face, Li An thought that Lin Zhixiao agreed to help, and was overjoyed.Just about to go forward and confess with Lin Zhixiao.Lin Zhixiao yelled: "What kind of polluting thing, dare to bribe me, and the left and right won't take it down with me."

As soon as Lin Zhixiao finished drinking, he saw two soldiers coming up, holding Li An together and kneeling him on the ground.

Li An struggled and called out.Li An's servant outside had already been notified to Li An's family, and she was eavesdropping outside the hall at this time, and heard Li An calling for help inside.Immediately rushed in with a few servants, trying to snatch Li An.

Seeing this, Lin Zhixiao was furious, and shouted: "You are a woman who dares to meddle in the important affairs of this mansion. You will die." Immediately ordered the soldiers to drive these servants aside, and pulled Li An's family away.

Lin Zhixiao scolded Li An's family: "Idiot woman, dare to do this at this time, you really think Lai Nanny is the old lady in charge of Jia's house."

At this time, Li An's family also knew that something was wrong, so they could only sit on the ground and cry bitterly.

Lin Zhixiao ignored her after finishing speaking.He ordered one of the corporal leaders who led the team to guard the mansion and not let anyone in or out.After instructing him to take two of his own soldiers, he wanted to suppress Li An and go to the stage to ask Jia Ke to return.

But at this time Li An was already limp on the ground, unable to walk, so Lin Zhixiao had to order two soldiers to drag Li An away.

As soon as Lin Zhixiao and the others left the house, they were discovered by the villagers.

The villagers were all discussing and guessing who the official Li had offended. He was dragged away like this, and he was in a mess.Out of curiosity, he followed Lin Zhixiao and the others to the stage.

As soon as I arrived on the stage, I saw dozens of servants in front of the stage, all of them were burly and sturdy, standing motionless like pillars under the stage.

And there was a little boy sitting on the stage.At this time, the young man was sitting on the stage with a gloomy expression, which made people afraid just looking at it.

Lin Zhixiao ordered someone to push Li An off the stage, and went up to report to Jia Ke himself.

Two personal soldiers pushed Li An off the stage, and pressed him to kneel down. Li An knew that the one above was the second master's eldest son, so he didn't dare to resist and knelt obediently.Peeking at Jia Ke's face on the stage, seeing Jia Ke's gloomy face, he knew something was wrong.This is to expose the truth.

Originally, he didn't want to do this job this year, but his uncle said that Jia Ke was young and ignorant, and he grew up in a wealthy family so he didn't know the sufferings of the world. They did it this time and they had the income of the previous five or six years.If Jia Ke grows up in a few years, it won't be easy to fool her. It depends on these few years to get rich.He sounded reasonable, so he followed Lai Da's arrangement, and it went smoothly at first. The mansion not only waived this year's rent, but also released grain and silver.He sold the grain and the rent collected this year, plus the government's disaster relief money, there were 3000 taels, and he divided nearly 1000 taels.I thought it was all right, but I didn't expect Jia Ke to bring someone here.It seems that this posture is not good.

Chapter 34 Interrogation

Lin Zhixiao went up to the stage, came to Jia Ke, bowed and said to Jia Ke, "Master, Li An brought it."

Jia Ke nodded and said nothing.

Seeing that Jia Ke hadn't spoken, Lin Zhixiao said again, "Master, just now Li An was deceived by lard and wanted to bribe the younger one. The younger one brought the banknote." He took out a banknote from his bosom, Send it to Jia Ke.

Jia Ke just glanced at it, took it over and took a closer look, it turned out to be a 100 tael bank note.Jia Ke looked at the banknote and smiled, and said: "It seems that Li An is quite rich, and he can bribe people for 100 taels." After speaking, she lost her face again and said to Lin Zhixiao: "After you go back , 50 taels will be credited to the account, and the other 50 taels will be rewarded to you."

Lin Zhixiao hastily declined and said, "How dare you be a small one."

Jia Ke said, "If you say it's a reward, it's a reward. You don't have to worry."

Seeing that Jia Ke was really rewarded, Lin Zhixiao let go of his heart, bowed to Jia Ke and said, "Thank you, sir, for the reward."

Jia Ke nodded and stopped talking.

Just like that, there was silence around the stage, about half an hour passed.

Li An was under the stage, his knees were in unbearable pain, while Jia Ke was sitting on the stage like a mountain.

Li An couldn't hold on anymore, so he shouted loudly: "Master, the younger one knows he was wrong, please spare the younger one."

Jia Ke looked at Li An below, and then said: "Where did you go wrong, why don't I know."

When Li An saw Jia Ke open his mouth, he dared to say: "It's the little one who reported the disaster in a panic and defrauded the government of the relief money. The little one is willing to pay, and the young one is willing to pay."

Jia Ke glanced at him from above and said, "It seems you haven't thought it through yet."

Then Jia Ke ordered: "Come here, give him thirty sticks and let him think carefully."

As soon as Jia Ke gave an order, some of his own soldiers stepped forward and pressed Li An to the ground, and two more soldiers came over and beat Li An with their sticks.

Every time Li An was hit, he yelled loudly, which was strong at first, but then gradually became weaker.

The villagers watching the bustle nearby became silent, with fear on their faces.Seeing the majestic and majestic Li Daguan who was beaten to pieces, they felt a kind of pleasure amidst the fear.This Li An usually relied on the name of Rongguo Mansion to dominate the village, but he did not expect that he would be as humble as them when meeting noble people.

After the thirty sticks were beaten, the soldiers pushed Li An back to the front of the stage, and Jia Ke asked, "Have you thought it through?"

Li An knew what Jia Ke wanted to know, but he didn't dare to say it. If he didn't say it, maybe there was still a glimmer of hope. Lai Da would save his life as his sister-in-law. Once he said it, Lai Da might capsize, But with Mammy Lai here, it would be nothing serious, but he would be completely finished, and Nanny Lai would not care about him then.Just because he knew it, Li An absolutely couldn't say it.

And Jia Ke asked him to confess, also to pull out this cancer for the Jia family, and to preserve a little more vitality for the future.Besides, since there has already been a conflict with Lai Da and Lai Nanny, we must cut the grass and root out the roots, so as not to leave any future troubles.

When Li An saw Jia Ke asking again, he gritted his teeth and said, "I don't know what the old man wants the young one to do, but the young one also admitted that it was a mistake to claim the money by himself, and he is willing to compensate. What else will the uncle do."

After hearing what he said, Jia Ke was overjoyed by him, and said: "You have a son in your own family, and everything belongs to the master. What compensation do you have? Let me tell you, tell the truth obediently, otherwise I'm afraid you won't be able to bear the pain of flesh and blood. "

Li An wryly smiled and said, "Master, I've said everything I can say, what else do you want me to say?"

Jia Ke stared at him and said, "Then say what you can't say."

Li An figured it out, the master in front of him was a cruel and merciless master, but he still bit the bullet and said: "Master, I really don't have one, sir, I'm going to save my life."

Jia Ke said harshly, "Your life is not in my hands, but in your mouth. Since you are not honest, then drag it on and beat me for another twenty sticks."

The soldiers on both sides immediately dragged Li An to the side again, and pushed him to the ground again, with another twenty sticks.After this fight, Li An almost lost the strength to speak.

Jia Ke asked Li An again, "Say it or not."

At this time, Li An has nothing to fear. Even if he has a good or bad situation, Lai Da will take care of his family if he wants to come.

So he shook his head like a man and said, "There is nothing to say." He stopped talking.

At this time, Jia Ke also admired Li An a little bit, and even refused to recruit after being tortured like this.But Jia Ke has watched so many TV dramas in modern times, and it is not for nothing. The torture trick in the TV drama seems to be used, and we have to see how this Li An can survive it.

So Jia Ke yelled, "Set up a brazier and put on a soldering iron."

Lin Zhixiao heard Jia Ke's words next to him, his legs were so frightened that his legs went limp, and he was petrified by Jia Ke's ruthlessness.I never thought that the usually so kind uncle would have such a side.
