Chapter 54
Chapter 54
Everyone at the scene couldn't sit still when they heard the word addiction. Recently, there has been too much trouble. The emperor personally asked how many people were dragged into the water. If there is a little bit of it, the reputation of that family is almost destroyed. thoroughly.
Lin Qingyang was stunned, the sequence of the plot was a bit wrong!It was supposed to be him who revealed that he was addicted to cigarettes because of Lin Qingxu's aunt, and then the evidence was so strong that these two people should be punished.
But now An Nanhou's attitude gave Lin Qingyang a signal that if he admitted that he was addicted to incense, the consequences would be disastrous.
right!He can't admit it.
As a result, Lin Qingxu was surprised in the next second: "Are those symptoms caused by the addiction to incense? But the second brother was sick for a few days in the Imperial College before, and these symptoms are the same?"
Lin Qingyang mechanically turned his head to look at Lin Qingxu, is this guy messing around?Is he not guilty?Wait... Did Lin Qingxu not know that he got the evidence?
It seems... All Lin Qingxu knew all along was that Chunxiang Building was raided and the roster was found, but so many people have been arrested until now, but he has not been caught, so he thought he was okay?
Lin Qingyang was shocked by Lin Qingxu's innocence.
In fact, it's not that Lin Qingxu is naive, but that he has been observing the situation outside. He originally wanted to take Yuzhang in for a rainy day. It just so happened this afternoon that he heard that the case had been closed. That was about Lin Qingyang's order. Found out, maybe his order wasn't on the books at all, or was it elsewhere?Anyway, it's fine if it's not found.
It was impossible for him to think that someone like Lin Qingyang would dare to take the risk of going to Chunxiang Building to find out, and he could still get the evidence in his hand, so he drifted away, thinking that he had escaped a catastrophe, anyway, Lin Qingyang's addiction to incense soon after He will be discovered if he attacks, so it is better to use the jade barrier to expose him now, once and for all.
As long as Lin Qingyang is proved to be addicted to incense, and An Nanhou is very afraid that he will get caught in something unclean and be caught by the wind outside, of course he will completely give up Lin Qingyang.Now no one will compete with him for the throne.
After all, there are only two people who know about Lin Qingyang's order in that roster, Lin Qingyang and Chu Lishu, even Yuechen only knows which one is there, and I don't know if it was taken away by Chu Lishu After all, there was an extra book that might be burned if it was not found during the investigation later.
Under such a blunder, it has become the current situation.
Lin Qingyang felt like laughing, looking at Lin Qingxu like looking at a fool.
I even thanked him a little for sending the jade barrier.
Otherwise, he directly said that he was addicted to incense, and he would not be considered an abandoned son by this ruthless father.
God was finally on his side for once, which made him break out in a cold sweat just now.
Lin Qingyang listened to An Nanhou's almost roaring question under the eyes of everyone: "Are you really infected?" He straightened his back and replied word by word: "I didn't. Father, do you want me to be infected?" Kneeling, let’s find out first, how could I be addicted to incense. And third brother, do you think I’m addicted to it? When I was in Taixue, I fell into the water with my cousin and got the cold, and I After studying in Taixue for a long time, if you become addicted to incense and don’t smoke for a long time, how can you bear it.”
Lin Qingyang lied calmly. Anyway, there is no evidence, and the addiction to cigarettes has been quit, so what can I do?
"Could it be that you are infected even you don't know?" Lin Qingxu could hardly suppress the smile in his eyes, his spirit was completely different from last night, but his face maintained a distorted worry. "Father, let's press this man."
Lin Qingxu naturally referred to Yuzhang, and Yuzhang didn't expect things to change like this, so he quickly grabbed Lin Qingyang and said, "Mr. Lin, save me."
"It's useless for you to find the second brother. You are addicted to incense. We can't keep you in the mansion. We will send you to the government later." Lin Qingxu provocatively said.
Yuzhang was frightened immediately, "No, if you send me to the government, I... I will definitely confess to the second son of Lin, he also smoked, and he is also addicted to incense."
Of course, Yuzhang's self-help statement is very credible. If he lies and waits for Lin Qingyang's addiction to occur, it will be easily verified, so almost everyone present believes this statement.
"You... you usually act recklessly, you can do whatever you want, but you are actually contaminated with this kind of thing! You are dragging our whole family into the water!" An Nanhou was furious, and he wanted to find a whip for family punishment. "Nizi, Nizi..."
"Master Hou, there's such an uproar outside now, it can't be spread!"
"If it gets out, our Lin family will get into big trouble."
"Lock him up and send him to the countryside, or send him to be ordained and become a monk. In short, he can't stay in the capital!"
The uncles of the three clans almost all jumped up.
"You broom star!" Li Shi swung his cane again and smashed it over.
"Don't worry, don't worry, let's listen to what Yang Yang has to say first." Lin Qinglan quickly reached out to stop Li Shi, but she couldn't stop the arrogant old man, so she could only ask Lin Qingwei who was stunned to the side for help.
But Lin Qingwei rushed up and grabbed Lin Qingyang's clothes with wide eyes, and shouted: "Second brother! How can you do this! You are so masculine, we just ignore it, but you still...how do you If you can do this, you are not only ruining yourself, but if someone finds out, you will also damage the reputation of our family, and even we will be suspected."
Lin Qingyang looked at the contrasting two sisters with a cold expression.
Lin Qingxu stepped forward to appease Lin Qingwei and said, "Fourth sister, don't be like this. This hasn't been spread yet, so you can definitely hide it. Second brother, you still have to admit your mistake."
Seeing that Marquis Annan had given up on the whip and was about to take out a stick to beat someone, Mrs. Ru hurriedly said: "Brother Yang, admit your mistake quickly, we will find a way to help you get rid of your addiction to incense, and we will definitely not let you be like this person." .”
Suddenly, Lin Qingyang started applauding and interrupted Mrs. Ru's words.
"The acting...was really good."
"What did you say!" Marquis Annan was furious.Mrs. Ru and Lin Qingxu looked at him furtively.
Lin Qingyang said directly: "Mr. Yuzhang of Youtinglou, tell me how I became addicted to incense?"
Everyone thought that Lin Qingyang was mentally abnormal.It even broke the can.
But Yuzhang was nervous, "It's...is it the incense that the young master lit every time he came to see me?"
"And do I know it's an addiction?"
Yuzhang's eyes drifted, but he lied firmly: "Of course I know, didn't you ask for it on my own initiative?"
"The Chunxiang Building is gone, but the Youting Building is still there. Did I take the initiative to order the incense? Do you think no one can prove it?"
Yuzhang's heart was already in chaos, and his addiction to incense was also on the rise. He couldn't think too much at all, so he didn't quibble when he heard this, and he would rather have the jade broken than Wa Quan said: "Mr. Lin said so much is useful? Indeed, you don't know that It’s an addiction, someone gave me money to harm you, don’t you all know that? But it’s also true that you are addicted, if you dare to abandon me, I will die with you.”
Finally, the excitement of the crowd calmed down a little bit. There is still a difference between being victimized and taking the initiative.
"Are you killed? Who wants to kill you?" An Nanhou asked.
Lin Qingxu was a little flustered, but only a little. He didn't expect that Lin Qingyang already knew that he was addicted to incense, but he probably didn't know who did it.
"Father, who is the victim is very important, but the most important thing now is that the second brother is really infected, what should we do?" Lin Qingxu tried to bring his father's attention back.
"You are wrong. Of course it is very important who killed me, because I didn't get infected at all. I just acted for the person who killed me. I want to find out who killed me." Lin Qingyang said calmly .
Lin Qingxu's eyes flickered slightly, "Second brother, although you don't want to face the reality, not only me, but also the fourth and fifth sisters knew your physical condition in Taixue during that time, Chu Lishu fell into the water just like you Nothing happened at all, but you are obviously in better health than him, but you dragged on for many days and accompanied by strange symptoms, which can no longer prove your innocence. Since you were the victim, we will not blame you. You There's no point in hiding it now, admit it, and we can help you."
"You seem to want me to get infected?" Lin Qingyang said suddenly.
Lin Qingxu immediately said righteously: "How could it be, I just want you to face the reality."
"Then you have to face reality later." Lin Qingyang suddenly smiled strangely.
Lin Qingxu's heart tightened inexplicably, but the facts told him that it was impossible for Lin Qingyang to know the truth. If he knew, wouldn't he have fallen out a long time ago according to his temper, and could he be calm for so many days?
And Lin Qingyang didn't waste time here, and said directly: "I found out that someone was trying to harm me, so every time I pretended to be asleep to cooperate with the performance to confuse Yuzhang. Because Yuzhang has never slept in the same room as me , so he had no idea that I would sneak away every time without smoking at all.”
Lin Qingyang was so smooth that even Yu Barrier began to doubt his memory, "No...no, obviously...should..."
"Have we slept?" Lin Qingyang asked cheekily.
In the end, Yuzhang couldn't answer, because he told Lin Qingyang the answer himself.
Because he couldn't answer this question, it seemed that he was acknowledging what Lin Qingyang said earlier.
Everyone began to wonder if Lin Qingyang really pretended to be infected to confuse this young man in order to investigate his perpetrator?
"You really didn't..."
"If it is really infected, I will definitely have an attack. Is it necessary to lie?"
An Nanhou was persuaded, and immediately breathed a long sigh of relief, "You should tell me earlier, arrest this guy, investigate slowly, why take such a risk."
"Because I suspect that the person who killed me is in this mansion, and I don't believe anyone." Lin Qingyang sneered.
An Nanhou was startled for a moment, and his eyes couldn't help but turned to Mrs. Ru and Lin Qingxu. Obviously in his mind, if he wanted to make a move, these two people were the biggest suspects.
And at this moment, the two of them also panicked, repeatedly denying Lin Qingyang's statement, and refuted it with the love of their loved ones, which seemed ridiculous.
Suddenly, Lin Qingyang turned a corner, looked at Lin Qingwei who was standing beside Lin Qingxu, and said, "Lin Qingwei, let me ask you, do you still have the contract of the fertile land store that your grandfather gave you?"
Lin Qingwei, who was still in the shock of reversing the facts, froze for a moment when she heard this abrupt question, "What?"
"Am I asking if it's in your hands? Those contracts?"
Now Lin Qingxu and Mrs. Ru's expressions finally changed.
"In..." Lin Qingwei rolled her eyes.
"take it out."
"Why, is this the time to talk about this kind of thing? Now you take care of yourself! What do I do?" Lin Qingwei said unconvinced.
Just when Lin Qingxu instinctively wanted to find something to change the topic, Lin Qingyang suddenly smiled at him, took out two pieces of paper from his arms and threw them to An Nanhou.
An Nanhou took it in surprise, and his face immediately changed. The three uncles who were close to An Nanhou gasped for the first time.
It wasn't until their eyes were focused on Lin Qingwei's face that Lin Qingwei said dumbly: "What are you looking at me for?"
Annanhou turned pale and glanced back and forth for a while, but didn't say anything, but the uncle of the family didn't have this brain, and asked directly: "Wei girl, you actually use these contracts as collateral? Ordering addictive substances to harm your second brother ?”
In an instant, those who did not see the evidence were stunned.
"You... what are you talking about!" Lin Qingwei was shocked and rushed up immediately.
Lin Qingxu and Mrs. Ru looked at each other and hurried over to take a look. Lin Qingxu was the person who placed the order in person, so he naturally recognized the order, and the blood on his face faded immediately. Mrs. Ru only knew a general idea, but seeing Lin Qingxu's expression now Know it's true.
Lin Qinglan came to Lin Qingyang's side in surprise, her eyes full of worry. "It's not my little sister, is it?"
Lin Qingyang nodded incredulously.
"It's not me, it's not me!" Lin Qingwei finally yelled at this moment, Lin Qingyang thought she would probably tell how those contracts became collateral by herself.
Unfortunately, Lin Qingwei directly pointed at Lin Qingyang angrily, and cried out in tears: "Second brother, how could you have the heart to harm me so much, I know, you must be addicted to incense and refuse to admit it, and you still want to harm me To divert the conflict, I'm your own sister, how could you treat me like this! How could I go to Chunxiang Building, how could I know about addictive substances. Why do you..."
Lin Qingyang looked at Lin Qingwei numbly. Although he had no feelings for her, he really felt angina in an instant.
"Fourth sister, why do you think I hurt you?"
"Then how did these things appear? It's all fabricated by you, isn't it?"
Lin Qingyang took a deep breath and said coldly, "You only need to answer one question for me, and I'll tell you if I hurt you."
Lin Qingwei was taken aback, then watched Lin Qingyang take a step forward, and looked at her with unprecedented disgust, "Tell me, did you lose your contract in your hands, or did you give it to someone!"
A question, a word, instantly stopped Lin Qingwei's brain.
Lin Qingyang no longer cared about Lin Qingwei's thoughts of being a little girl, and directly reached out to hold Lin Qingwei's collar, "Think about it with your pig head, did you give the contract to someone long ago, and they used your things I bought the incense as collateral to make me addicted. If I hadn’t discovered it, I would have almost died under the incense. If it wasn’t for my wit, I might be in the prison of Dali Temple now. You also because of these two The evidence was taken for interrogation, and both of our reputations were ruined. You said I harmed you? Did you use my health and reputation to harm you?"
After finishing speaking, Lin Qingyang pushed him into Mrs. Ru's arms not far away.Mrs. Ru supported her in horror.
Lin Qingwei's pupils shrank suddenly, as if her brain had been hit by a bolt of lightning, and her brain finally started to function.
With tears still on her face, she turned her head to look at Mrs. Ru and said, "Auntie, didn't I hand over those contracts to you a long time ago? Why...why did they appear here?"
One sentence woke up everyone present, probably only Lin Qingyang and An Nanhou who had already reacted did not feel frightened.
Lin Qingxu immediately stepped forward and said, "Fourth Sister, are you confused? What nonsense are you talking about? How dare Auntie take over your things?"
"I didn't lie, it was my aunt who wanted to manage it for me and took it away." Lin Qingwei broke down and shouted, what Lin Qingyang said just now was still echoing in her ears, and her heart was still shaking.
"I... I don't know, I put it well, I don't know why it appeared here, maybe it was stolen." Mrs. Ru argued anxiously, "Brother Yang, did you steal it?" .”
"Yeah, second brother, you forged it, right? If it's really evidence, wouldn't it be in Dali Temple long ago? How could it be in your hands." Lin Qingxu argued immediately.
Lin Qingyang didn't expect them to be so eloquent, so he looked directly at An Nanhou tiredly and said, "Father, I don't want to argue anymore. On the night when Chunxiang Tower was investigated, I was with Yue Chen and Huo Luo. We investigated there together, and they can testify for me. The evidence was stolen by me. I can't let the Hou Mansion fall into trouble, but if this leads some people to find the confidence to argue, then I can only Can you tell Yuechen, and use his means to return me the truth."
"You..." An Nanhou didn't know how to answer for a while, but he knew the truth in his mind.
"You can't, if you do this, it will kill your sister." Mrs. Ru said immediately.
Lin Qingwei was also frightened, and looked at Lin Qingyang in horror.
"It's not her who did it. I'm afraid of any investigation. I will go to the prison with her and investigate slowly."
"Then aren't you afraid of hurting the reputation of our Hou Mansion?" Lin Qingxu almost shouted, obviously he couldn't hold it anymore.
"Hmph, the reputation of the Hou Mansion? Did the person who harmed me worry about it? He didn't worry about it, why should I worry about it?" Lin Qingyang didn't back down at all this time, he had to block everyone's escape route, especially An Nanhou Yes, didn't he love Lin Qingxu?Let's see, if I hadn't presented the evidence, what would happen to the Hou Mansion now?
He looked at An Nanhou coldly, and told An Nanhou with firm eyes that this matter could not pass easily.
Sure enough, in the next second, An Nanhou had already made a decision, and suddenly, he slapped Madam Ru.
With a bang, Mrs. Ru was almost thrown into the air, crashing into the dining table beside her, and with a bang, the dining table fell over, making Mrs. Ru messed up by the soup.
"Master Hou?" Mrs. Ru covered her swollen face, bleeding from the corner of her mouth, crying in embarrassment, in disbelief.
Lin Qingxu was instantly frightened and quiet.
"Be honest!" An Nanhou said sharply, "Did you plan to harm Qingyang!"
Mrs. Ru kept crying and shaking her head in denial, but soon, Marquis Annan swung down his stick.
After being beaten with a stick, Mrs. Ru's nose was bruised and her face was swollen, and she vomited blood, almost losing half her life.But no one dared to step forward to stop him. In the end, Lin Qingyao cried and rushed forward to stop An Nanhou.
Lin Qingxu finally reacted from the huge failure, rushed up to help Mrs. Ru up, and shouted: "Father, stop beating, you will kill Auntie."
"She doesn't admit it? Could it be you?" An Nanhou waved his stick and was about to come down. At this moment, Mrs. Ru finally shouted: "It's not him, Lord Hou, I admit it, I admit it, it's me, I'm jealous of my son I want to harm Lin Qingyang with addictive substances, I did it, Lord Hou, I was wrong, I really know I was wrong, I just had evil thoughts for a while."
Lin Qingxu opened his mouth but under the gaze of Madam Ru shaking his head, he couldn't utter a word. He instantly understood what his mother meant.If the wife wants to take all the blame for the crimes alone.
