The next day, before Liu Zhimo went to the yamen, Ling handed him the results of the investigation.
Even though Liu Zhimo was mentally prepared, his heart sank again and again.
This matter is tricky.
He asked Ling Yi to arrange the inspection of the house so that no mistakes could be made.
Ling Yi went in response.
Liu Zhimo looked for Mr. Luo with a serious face. When Mr. Luo saw him coming, he gestured to him, and went to the study with his hands behind his back.
As soon as he entered the study, he couldn't wait to tell Mr. Luo the results of the investigation.
After hearing this, Mr. Luo frowned, and asked Liu Zhimo what he thought
"This matter must be reported to the emperor, to see what the emperor thinks?"
Mr. Luo hummed, and asked Liu Zhimo to write a memorial to the emperor quickly. Before that, don't show any strangeness.
If those people notice it, it will be troublesome.
Liu Zhimo looked gloomy, nodded and said that he wanted to send Li Qingling and the others back to Niutou Village.
He was always worried that they were here, fearing that something would happen to them.
"Do you want to send them back these days?"
"Tomorrow... send them back tomorrow." He felt that the sooner the better, he couldn't delay any longer, so as not to have long nights and dreams, "You go back too."
Mr. Luo frowned, glanced at Liu Zhimo, and wanted to say that he didn't want to go back, but when the words came to his lips, he swallowed them abruptly. He had promised Liu Zhimo before, so he couldn't go back on his word. up.
But leaving Liu Zhimo here alone, he was very worried.
"Shall we wait for the emperor's order before we leave? If we leave now, I'm worried that those people will notice."
Before receiving the emperor's order, he was not very willing to leave.
Liu Zhimo shook his head and told them to leave tomorrow.
He was also worried that if he left too late, he would not be able to leave.
Mr. Luo sighed in his heart, "Then what are you going to tell Xiao Ling?" Li Qingling is a smart person, it is very difficult to deceive her.
To be honest, I don't know if she will leave
Liu Zhimo also thought of this question, his brows frowned even deeper, and he was not sure, wondering if he could persuade Li Qingling
Don't look at that girl who is easy to talk to, once she becomes stubborn, even ten cows won't be able to pull her back.
Thinking of this, he felt a little worried.
Mr. Luo glanced at him, and smiled with the corners of his mouth pulled. This matter was for him to worry about, and he didn't care about it.
He could imagine what kind of reaction Li Qingling would have when Liu Zhimo opened his mouth? The scene must be... very lively.
"By the way, old man Xue will go with us too?"
Liu Zhimo nodded and said yes.
He didn't intend to let the relatives around him stay here, so he had to leave.
"If the guards escort us away, there won't be many people around you. Once they find out, they will attack in advance, then on your side..." The more he thought about it, the more worried he became. Mr. Luo closed his eyes, took a deep breath and opened them again. Come on, his eyes were dark, he didn't dare to think about it any more.
"Master, don't think wildly, you won't." Liu Zhimo comforted Mr. Luo, not letting him think so seriously.
If you let him think about it, he will not want to leave even more.
Mr. Luo's tiger eyes stared, how could it not be possible? Everything is possible. Speaking of this, he thought of He Zhao Wanglin's four families again, wondering if they would attack them on the way
You know, they are Liu Zhimo's weakness, if you catch them, you will also threaten Liu Zhimo, then...
He told Liu Zhimo about his worries. Liu Zhimo's face changed after hearing this. His attention was all on those people, but he ignored the four families of He Zhao Wanglin. If those four families really invited The killer attacked Li Qingling and the others halfway, and the consequences would be disastrous.
Liu Zhimo clenched his fist vigorously, what should I do
Do you want them to stay here
No, no, it's too dangerous to stay here.
"Master, do you have any good ideas?" His mind was in a mess, and he couldn't think of any good ideas for a while, so he had to look at Mr. Luo to see if he had any good ideas.
Mr. Luo said: "My suggestion is to wait for the emperor's decree before making a decision. During this time, please stay calm." After the emperor knows about this, he will definitely send troops to wipe out those people nearby. It is impossible to turn a blind eye .
After a long silence, Liu Zhimo said that he would think about it again and give him an answer after thinking about it.
Mr. Luo said hello.
Liu Zhimo rubbed his temples, sat down in front of the table, wrote the memorial with a lot of thoughts, and sent it to the emperor's hands quickly.
He didn't even go to the yamen, and went back to his room. Li Qingling got up early on a rare occasion, and seeing him back, asked him suspiciously if he missed something
He walked to the edge of the bed and sat down, touched her head, and said no.
Li Qingling stared at him for a long while, "Husband, are you someone outside?"
Hearing her words, Liu Zhimo choked, stretched out his hand and patted her forehead, "What are you talking about? Fool..." His heart is very small, he can only pretend that she is alone, how could there be others
Holding his handsome face with his hands, and eye to eye, Li Qingling asked him again, what was on his mind
She could feel that he had something on his mind, but she didn't know what was bothering him.
But he refused to tell her that she couldn't help even if she wanted to.
Liu Zhimo looked at her quietly for a while, then smiled wryly, he couldn't hide it from anyone around him.
He opened his mouth, but for a moment he didn't know where to start
Seeing this, she raised her eyebrows and snorted, "It's so difficult to speak, so it can't be because there are people outside? Or...Is it because she fell in love with another woman and wants to take her home to be a child?" She The more nonsense he uttered, the uglier his face became.
In the end, he covered her mouth with his hand, raised his eyes and glared at her, not allowing her to speak nonsense.
What nonsense he said made him angry.
Li Qingling took his hand off, and continued to ask him, what made him so embarrassed
Liu Zhimo sighed slightly, and asked Li Qingling if he wanted to go back to Niutou Village for a while
"Why?" She won't go back if he doesn't give her a good reason.
Liu Zhimo quietly told a white lie, "Ever since I was attacked in Wutong Village, I have been worried that the four families of He Zhao Wanglin will invite killers to attack you again, so I want you to go back to Niutou Village for a while." Avoid." He felt that this reason should be able to convince Li Qingling.
Unexpectedly, Li Qingling didn't believe his words at all.
She shook her head slightly, and directly exposed his lie, saying that it was not because of these reasons that he sent them back to Niutou Village.
What happened to make him lie to her
Li Qingling looked at Liu Zhimo anxiously.
Sensing her uneasiness keenly, Liu Zhimo's heart throbbed, he stretched out his hand and hugged her into his arms, shaking her gently, so that she would not think about it.
"You want me not to think about it, just tell me honestly, what is it that makes you difficult?"
The more he kept it from her, the more uneasy she felt, and all kinds of bad thoughts filled her head.
Liu Zhimo pressed his chin against the top of her head, lowered his eyes to look at her, and sighed again involuntarily, should he tell her the matter
He hesitated for a while, unable to make up his mind.
"Husband?" Li Qingling stared at him, "Can't you tell me?"
After Liu Zhimo thought about it, he still decided not to tell Li Qingling the truth, and he arranged the affairs of the four families of He Zhao Wanglin.
"What? Is what you said true?" Li Qingling exclaimed, then covered her mouth again, and stared at Liu Zhimo with wide eyes. She thought of all kinds of bad things, but she didn't expect that He Zhao Wanglin would be so bold that he would use common people as rafts, "Husband, are you sure?"
Liu Zhimo nodded and said sure, he had someone investigate yesterday, it was absolutely true.
Otherwise, he wouldn't let her go back to Niutou Village to avoid the limelight.
"We're leaving, what about you? Are you planning to stay here?"
Liu Zhimo gently stroked Li Qingling's hair, saying that he is the county magistrate of Ninghua County, and it is impossible for him to leave the people and run away.
He must advance and retreat with the people, this is the duty of a county magistrate.
His expression darkened, Li Qingling looked up at Liu Zhimo, and said firmly that she would not leave.
It was impossible for her to leave Liu Zhimo here and just walk away.
Hearing this, Liu Zhimo slightly pushed Li Qingling away, looked at her seriously, and told her to leave.
Li Qingling shook his head and said no.
"Even if you're not thinking about yourself, you have to think about the child." He put his hand on her stomach, his expression softened, "Do you have the heart to let the child not see the world? Huh?"
Seeing Li Qingling's sad expression, he also felt very sad, "If you were not pregnant, I would definitely let you stay here to help me. If you are pregnant, it's a different matter."
He couldn't make fun of her body, he couldn't bear the pain of losing her.
Li Qingling bit her lower lip hard, in a dilemma. She didn't know whether to leave or stay
"Maybe...it will be fine..." These words lack confidence.
Liu Zhimo stretched out his fingers to free her biting lip, and pinched her chin to stop her from biting her lip.
"My lady, I don't want you to leave my side either. It's really helpless, really..."
Li Qingling glanced at him, and then refuted his words, saying that she must be safe in Niutou Village? Maybe even more dangerous.
If the four families of He, Zhao, Wang and Lin invite killers to hunt them down again, it is impossible to let them go easily.
Maybe they didn't have to wait until Niutou Village, and they were dealt with halfway.
She spread all the reasons in her mind in front of him one by one, just to let him dispel these doubts.
After the words fell, Liu Zhimo felt his heart sink into an abyss, which made him want to sigh helplessly.
What she said made sense, and he agreed.
Hey... He wanted to persuade her, but in the end, he was almost persuaded by her.
When did his self-control become so bad
"I'll let the guards escort you home." His attitude became tough, and he said in an undeniable tone.
Li Qingling looked at him deeply, and asked him what to do here
