"After bringing Gong Shilin to the Criminal Department for questioning, the boy will naturally come up with evidence." Li Cheng said.
"Bang!" The Marquis of Pingyang 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, his face was solemn, and 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..." Marquis Pingyang was so angry that he was speechless.
The face is extremely ugly!
He stared at Li Cheng fiercely.
Li Cheng spent an afternoon in the city department, in fact, he had already figured it out.
Also made a decision.
Between justice and the relationship between the Li Gong family, he chose justice.
When one makes a mistake, one must pay the corresponding price. He said: "My dear, you remember that you asked me to take up the post of the city department before, hoping that I could make a great contribution and enter the dynasty smoothly in the future. Now I finally found a clue and was able to catch the real murderer, but you are trying to maintain the relationship with the Gong family. Relationship, don't hesitate to let me put this case down, Dad, you are a dignified peace
Yanghou, how can black and white be reversed? "
Reverse black and white!
There was disappointment in his voice.
The Marquis of Pingyang felt as if someone had grabbed his heart.
It hurts suddenly!
On the side, Li Qiao suddenly stood up and immediately scolded him: "Acheng, how can you talk to Dad like this?"
Li Cheng looked at his elder brother and smiled bitterly: "Brother, I have always respected you, but now, do you want me to do things that go against my conscience for that little benefit?" I really captured Gong Shilin, have you thought about the consequences?" Li Qiao stared at him with red eyes, then walked up to him, grabbed his arm, suppressed her excitement, and persuaded, "Acheng, think about it, if you really catch
Going to Gong Shilin and bringing him to justice, Minister Gong Zuo will definitely try his best to protect him. At that time, even if Gong Shilin is really guilty, how can our Li family be any better? You also know that the Li Gong family have been friends for decades, and it must not be destroyed because of this incident. "
Ha ha!
Is this still the big brother Li Cheng has admired since he was a child
It turns out that in the face of interests, anyone will show an extremely hideous side.
He laughed: "Am I confused? Or are you confused?"
"Acheng!" He took a few steps back: "Father, big brother, it's not that I haven't thought about the benefits, it's precisely because I thought about it, that's why I didn't take Gong Shilin away from the prime minister's residence today! I think Listen and see, what will your father and eldest brother say? But now I know, it turns out that human life is in your eyes, take it seriously
Not even a mustard! You can act against your conscience for your own benefit, but I can't! In short, no matter who committed the crime, I will not show mercy. "
After saying that, he turned to leave.
Marquis of Pingyang and Li Qiao had mixed feelings.
They didn't go after it either!
As soon as Li Cheng went out, he saw Li Wenshu standing at the door.
She looked incredulous.
Then, under Li Cheng's distressed eyes, he slowly turned around and left!
"Sister!"
Li Cheng followed.
Li Wenshu was very quiet and walked all the way to the edge of the pond in the backyard.
She looked at the frozen lake.
He stood there quietly, not saying a word.
The heavy snow kept falling, the girl handed over an umbrella, Li Cheng supported it on Li Wenshu's head, and then dismissed the girls around him.
After a long time-
Li Wenshu said, "Now, I don't know who else I can trust?"
The tone is cool.
Mixed with a trace of sadness.
"Sister..." Li Cheng looked at her. "I thought Mu Bai was sincere towards me, but I didn't expect... He just wanted to use me to achieve his goal of becoming an official in the court! And I thought, maybe he loved me too, but what's even more ridiculous is that , unexpectedly a girl named Su Qiao appeared, and all his true feelings for me were turned into false
without. I always thought I was very smart, smart enough to see through everything, but it turned out that all of this was just what I thought was too beautiful. "
There is despair in the tone!
Li Cheng didn't know how to comfort him.
Li Wenshu continued: "And the most ridiculous thing is the truth this time! The one who killed Mu Bai turned out to be Shilin."
She laughed.
The corners of the pale lips overflowed with endless irony.
The wind and snow blew past, blowing her thin body to the verge of collapse.
…
The next day, Li Cheng still took his guards to the Xiangfu.
Order: "Take someone."
The guards of the city department dispersed, preparing to go to the courtyard to find Gong Shilin.
but-
Minister Gong Zuo was well prepared.
He suddenly raised his hand, and the guards of the Prime Minister's residence rushed out from everywhere, all dressed in armor, and their imposing manner was much higher than that of the guards of the city department.
On the roof, but also archers!
Surround the city department!
It's like being in a cage.
Minister Gong Zuo was very angry: "Even if it is the king, you can't send someone to break into my prime minister's house. Li Cheng, if you do it, don't blame me for being rude."
Li Cheng didn't change his face: "I'm on business. Today, no matter what, I will take Gong Shilin to the city department."
"Then see if you have the ability."
Gong Zuoxiang raised his hand and was about to give an order to his own people.
suddenly-
"stop!"
The voice of Marquis Pingyang came suddenly.
The Xiangfu guards dispersed one by one.
The Marquis of Pingyang came hurriedly, and without saying a word, gave Li Cheng a slap.
Li Cheng almost failed to stand firm.
"Knowing where this is, you dare to bring people in to arrest people?" Pingyang Hou Fei roared, and then said to Gong Zuoxiang, "General Gong, Acheng is not sensible, I will take him away."
"Master Hou, you really taught a good son. I promised you to arrange for Li Cheng to enter the city department, but I didn't expect that he had a wolf by his side."
"If you say that, it's serious!" "Your son brought someone into my mansion and wanted to arrest my son for questioning. This is the second time. If it spreads out, what majesty is there in my prime minister's mansion? What's more, the murderer who killed Du Mubai is not yet known by Shilin. Just because you say that there is evidence, you will come and bring people, which is simply provocative.
"
"The truth of the matter, I will ask clearly."
However, Li Cheng suddenly rushed up.
Not affected by that slap at all.
"I have to take people away," he said.
Gong Zuoxiang smiled: "It seems that today, a battle is inevitable."
Li Cheng was not afraid at all.
And the Marquis of Pingyang was also anxious, he said: "General Gong, if you really order to do it, then General Gong, the family friendship between my two families is over."
"You forced me." Gong Zuoxiang planned to order.
but-
"father."
Gong Shilin stepped out of the crowd.
He looked at Li Cheng with tired eyes.
Walk slowly to him. Said: "I will go with you to the city department."
