Li Cheng knows the benefits!
I also understood what Gong Zuoxiang meant.
He has to choose between justice and the relationship between the Lee Gong family.
And this is undoubtedly a huge problem.
When Gong Zuo saw that he was weighing, he put down the tea in his hand and walked over.
Patted his shoulder.
"Acheng! I'm still saying that, I still don't know the truth of the case, but if you insist that this case is related to Shilin, you won't be ignorant of what it will mean, so in the end you want to understand I don't want you and my family to have a good time, either."
Li Cheng's bottomless eyes looked at the wily father in front of him.
I know I can't beat him!
Unless it's hard!
He looked back at the guards he had brought, and then said to Gong Zuoxiang, "Uncle Gong Shi, don't make it difficult for me."
"I'm not embarrassing you, but asking you to take care of the overall situation."
The phrase "take care of the overall situation" obviously put pressure on Li Cheng!
He didn't know how to respond for a while.
It is also very Qin Chu, if he insists on taking Gong Shilin away, the consequences will be even more terrible than he expected.
The relationship between Li Gong and his family is like a huge net, and he is like a fish caught in the huge net.
Once desperately fighting.
The fish will die and the net will be broken!
Gong Zuoxiang slowly leaned into his ear and said softly, "As long as you say a word, the dead can become alive, and the black can also become white."
Uh!
Li Cheng's eyes sank.
The hands hanging on both sides clenched into fists.
Gong Zuoxiang not only wanted him to leave with his own people, but also wanted him to cover up in secret.
This is against morals and conscience.
He didn't make any response, and there was no hint of retreat in his eyes. After a while, he said, "Can you... let me meet Gong Shilin?"
"I won't let you see him."
"I have something to ask him face-to-face. After asking, I can take my people and leave first."
Ke Gong Zuoxiang had a firm attitude, waved his wide sleeves vigorously, turned his back, and said, "In any case, until the matter is resolved, I will not let anyone see Shilin."
Li Cheng knew that he couldn't take Gong Shilin with him today.
And Gong Zuoxiang's words that "dead can become alive, black can also become white" are indeed worthy of his pondering.
After all, the relationship between the Li Gong family is on the bright side.
In the end, he left Zuo Xiangfu with his bodyguard.
…
In the courtyard in the backyard of the prime minister's residence, Gong Shilin was locked inside.
There was a lock on the door.
Two little servants were guarding outside.
Not even a fly can fly in.
After Gong Shilin was locked in, he sat behind the desk and wrote something on the white paper with a pen.
He writes quickly.
There was no pause during this period.
But don't know what to write
Until a voice came from the door: "Master."
Then there is the clanging sound of unlocking.
He finished writing the last word and stopped writing immediately.
He folded the paper full of words and quickly stuffed it into his sleeve, not caring whether the ink had dried.
As soon as the door opened, Minister Gong Zuo walked in.
The boy closed the door again.
Gong Zuoxiang looked tense: "I have sent Li Cheng away."
Gong Shilin walked around the square table in front of him with a worried expression on his face: "Father, what if you saved me for a while? I know exactly who Li Cheng is, he won't let me go because of this, and he will definitely come again. , Dad, you just…”
"I will never watch you being escorted to the city department for inquiries!" Gong Zuoxiang was very excited.
"father!"
"I only have one son of you. If something happens to you, what do you want me to do? What's the use of everything I got today?"
Gong Shilin suddenly knelt down and shouted: "Dad, it's my fault, why do you have to bear the charge of covering up for me? How can you make me feel at ease?"
"Snapped!"
The slap was extremely loud.
And ruthless.
Gong Zuoxiang's palm stopped in the air.
I just feel my palms go numb.
Gong Shilin was knocked to the ground directly.
Blood came from the corners of his mouth.
Gong Zuoxiang said tearfully: "Listen, I won't let you have any trouble, and I will never let you die."
Sounds like a bell!
resounded throughout the house.
Gong Shilin climbed to the ground and sighed.
A pair of hands, tightly clenched into fists.
He was still stubborn about his father.
…
City Department, Li Cheng returned empty-handed.
And as soon as he came back, he sat down in the lobby.
Silent.
He just sat quietly.
Ji Yunshu and Jing Rong were waiting for him to bring people back.
Gong Shilin didn't see it, but Li Cheng looked like this.
The two of them looked at each other and understood.
Who is Christine Christine? That is the son of Minister Gong Zuo!
It's really tricky to bring him in for questioning.
"The case has already found clues for you. You can handle the rest yourself. If someone brings it, just let me know!" This is what Ji Yunshu said before leaving.
Li Cheng did not respond.
Just sat there.
No one in the city department dared to go up and say something.
When it was dark, an old official stepped forward: "Master Li, it's very late."
remind him.
Li Cheng looked outside, only to realize that it was so late.
He sighed and waved his hand: "You don't have to worry about me, let's go."
"Sir, you..."
"fine!"
"I'm just outside, if the lord has any orders, just say it." The old official withdrew.
And Li Cheng didn't sit for long, and finally got up and went out.
back home.
Before entering the door, he realized what was going to happen.
Sure enough, this is the door.
The little servant hurried over and said, "That... young master, you are back. The old master and the eldest young master have been waiting for you in the hall for a long time."
He said "um".
went to the hall.
The Marquis of Pingyang sat in the right seat, his face was serious and his eyes were like torches.
Li Qiao sat on the left.
"Dad, big brother." he shouted.
The Marquis of Pingyang asked, "Tell me, what are you going to do?"
"Dad is asking about Du Mubai's case?"
"I have already met with you, Gong Shibo. He said that you took the bodyguards of the city department to the Xiang's mansion to arrest people today, and kept saying that you would bring Gong Shilin to question him."
"Yes!"
"So, you really have found evidence that Du Mubai's death is related to him?"
"Yes!"
"Where's the evidence?"
"When I bring Gong Shilin to the Ministry of Punishment for questioning, I will naturally produce evidence." Li Cheng said.
"Bang!" Pingyang Hou Yang clapped his hands on the table, suddenly stood up, and said, "Do you know that if you take Shilin to the Punishment Department, you will openly make my Li family and Gong family enemies!"
Li Cheng was very calm, but his face was solemn. Facing the furious Marquis of Pingyang in front of him, he only replied: "Could it be that, for the sake of the relationship between the two families, Dad wants me to turn a blind eye?" "You... "
