“This is ridiculous. There’s actually someone who dares to barge into a house in broad daylight. They’re looking down on the law.”
A strong male voice sounded outside the courtyard, accompanied by sparse footsteps.
Another voice immediately echoed, “That’s right. Lord Wang, you have to uphold justice for our Liu family. Lock that bold lunatic up and sentence him to eight to ten years in prison.”
Song Jinghuan and Liu Jinbao looked at each other. The voice of Lord Wang was unfamiliar, but the other voice was definitely Yan San, who had been instructed by Manager Liu to get reinforcements.
“Don’t worry, in Qingping Town, I definitely won’t…’
Stepping into the flower door, Lord Wang’s voice suddenly rose and stopped.
Yan San, who was half-step behind him, and the dozen or so bailiffs behind him had to stop to prevent themselves from colliding.
“Lord Wang, why did you stop?” Yan San stuck his head out curiously and was stunned when he saw the scene in the courtyard.
Lord Wang turned around and glared at him. Since he had invited Lord Zhang over, why was he looking for him?
Since he had benefited, he had the preconceived notion that Lord Zhang had appeared here because he had been bribed by the Liu family. Otherwise, why would the county magistrate be so proactive?
Perhaps the Liu family had given him more bribes than everyone else.
While Deputy Wang was envious, he also felt a faint pleasure in his heart. Lord Zhang, who usually looked upright and honest, was only so-so.
He thought to himself, “With this weakness in hand, when Lord Zhang is promoted, if he doesn’t promote me to seal my mouth, I’ll…”
Thinking of this, County Magistrate Wang was not only not angry that the Liu family had hidden everything from him, but he also felt very happy.
This was the last year of Lord Zhang’s term. He would have to change his position next year, so he could take over.
He was incredibly gleeful.
“Lord Zhang, why did you have to do such a small thing yourself?” He put on a smile and walked over.
From the corner of her eye, he noticed Song Jiayue’s pale face. He thought to herself that this Madam Liu was getting more and more beautiful.
Lord Zhang glanced at Song Jinghuan. Seeing that she didn’t say anything and instead had a “you’re the county magistrate, you have the final say” expression, he understood.
“Small matter?” He looked at Deputy Wang coldly. “As a servant, he plotted against his master’s life and invaded the main family’s assets. Are these small matters in your eyes?”
The smile on Deputy Wang’s face froze. He stole a glance at Yan San beside him and saw that he was also puzzled. He probed, “Sir, is there a misunderstanding?”
After interacting with Manager Liu for so long, he actually knew a little about
tne LILI tamilY.
Lord Zhang said, “Are you saying that someone reported a fake case to deceive
The servant who brought Lord Zhang glanced at Song Jinghuan. Eldest Miss taught him to say that.
Song Jinghuan was speechless. She guessed it.
“This…” Cold sweat broke out on Deputy Wang’s forehead. He braced himself and said, “Master Liu died from drowning while drunk. The coroner has confirmed it.”
Therefore, there was no such thing as murder. As for encroaching on the family assets…
“Lord Zhang, you might not know this, but Liu Jinbao has been excommunicated by Old Master Liu. The head of the Liu residence is Old
Madam Liu. She has a six-year-old son.”
Their master was still around, so the family assets naturally belonged to them.
“I had no intention of inheriting any assets. I just wanted to offer my father an incense stick and see my grandfather. However, they kept obstructing me, so I had no choice but to suspect the real cause of my father’s death.” Liu Jinbao bowed to Lord Zhang. “County Magistrate, please investigate the truth.”
“Filial piety is the main priority. You did nothing wrong.” Lord Zhang waved his hand to get him up. “If your father’s death is really strange, I will naturally deal with it impartially. What do you think, Lord Wang?”
“Of course.”
Even a fool could tell that Lord Zhang was on Liu Jinbao’s side. Deputy Wang raised his hand to wipe his sweat and turned to look at Song Jiayue, wanting her to stand up and speak. Then, he was shocked that County Magistrate Zhang did not receive his hint when he called her “Eldest Miss.”
“It’s been a few days since Uncle Liu drowned. I don’t think we can find anything now. Why don’t we let the people who know the truth tell us?” Song Jinghuan looked around and finally fixed his gaze on the follower. “Tell us everything you know.”
She blinked and said meaningfully, “Don’t worry, your young master has a much bigger backer than these people.”
As soon as she finished speaking, everyone looked at the attendant standing in the middle of a group of servants.
Liu Jinbao frowned. “Luo Wen?”
He had long realized that apart from Manager Liu, only Luo Wen was left in the residence. The rest were all unfamiliar faces..
