Be a master through ancient times
Chapter 420
Different from ordinary people's pure emotions, Lin Futong was very angry when he heard the news.He threw the teacup in his hand vigorously, and it shattered to the ground.
"Idiots! They are all idiots! Didn't they tell them to kill the weeds? How could they still be left alive?" Lin Futong clenched his hands into fists, trembling slightly. Couldn't think of any countermeasures.
At that time, he approached the butler Zhao to set the tone, and wanted to know whether he or others were involved in what Zhao Kuan was doing.Zhao Kuan is a spy of the enemy country, his confession is not enough to win everyone's trust, but Zhao Butler is an out-and-out Wei person, if he has evidence in his hand, it will be bad.
Unexpectedly, although Steward Zhao had no direct evidence to prove that Zhao Kuan had bribed him, he revealed that Zhao Kuan had hidden a secret account, which was said to have been recorded a long time ago, and everything on it could be traced. If this thing is found by the imperial envoy, even the left minister will not be able to keep him.
Lin Futong's first idea was to send someone to sneak into the prison of the admiral's yamen and kill Zhao Kuan by poisoning. As long as he dies, no one will ever know this secret.Because Zhao's mansion had already been turned upside down by others, he dared to conclude that the evidence must not be in Zhao's mansion.
But this idea is simple, but it is extremely difficult to implement, because Zhao Kuan is a repeat offender, he has sneaked into the Great Wei for a long time, maybe there are some hidden clues that have not been found out.Judging from the wolfish and ambitious behavior of the Wa Kingdom, this move is very possible.Sticks are in charge of guarding Zhao Kuan's soldiers, which basically rotate around twelve hours.Moreover, there are many prohibitions outside the prison. Unless you are allowed, you can't get in at all, let alone kill Zhao Kuan.
Just as he was trying to make a plan with a ferocious face, Butler Zhao spoke again. He said that he knew where the secret account was kept, but if Lin Futong wanted to know, he had to agree to one condition.
Lin Futong immediately got excited and opened his mouth to promise that he would agree to any conditions.
Housekeeper Zhao has worked for Zhao Kuan for many years, and the money he has accumulated should not be underestimated.But after he became an official slave, he couldn't redeem himself at all, and he was not even allowed to leave the western suburbs saltworks for half a step without an amnesty.These silver coins are of no use to him now.
So he asked Lin Futong to get back his family's deed of selling their lives, and cross them off the official slave book, and then send a carriage to send them out of the scope of Nanfu Province.As for why they didn't take a boat, it was naturally because the sea was under the jurisdiction of the navy, and once their deeds were exposed, they would die.
Without thinking about it, Lin Futong directly agreed to all his requests, took out the booklet of officials and slaves from Juniper on the spot, and crossed off their list.
Steward Zhao felt relieved after getting the guarantee, and he easily believed that Lin Futong would do this, and revealed the location of the secret account before his safety was guaranteed.
Lin Futong was dubious, because Housekeeper Zhao was lying, he ordered Juniper to keep a close watch on him, and if something happened to his people while taking the secret account, he would do it directly.
The process of taking the secret account was not as thrilling as Lin Futong had imagined. His people searched for the location according to the location that Butler Zhao said, and found the secret account without any effort.
After Lin Futong got the secret account, he opened it and looked at it for a few times, and immediately broke out in a cold sweat. Zhao Kuan really put an extraordinary thought into it, and even drew the style of the gift on it.As big as rare treasures, as small as pots and pans, he recorded everything that was sent out and found in the hands of officials.There are far more things recorded here than what Lin Futong has disposed of.
He was both apprehensive and thankful that Butler Zhao had told him the matter in advance.The worry is that, with Zhao Kuan's cunning temperament, there may be more than one secret account.He immediately went to the Western Suburb Saltworks, and after confirming again and again that there was only one copy of the secret account, he destroyed it with confidence.
That day when he learned that Mu Yuanxiu had sent someone to the Zhao Mansion to look for things, Lin Futong almost laughed out loud.At the same time, he sent people to the salt field in the western suburbs, pretending to hijack Zhao Kuan's family. The purpose was to lure Mu Yuanxiu's secret protection staff, and then take advantage of the chaos to bring Zhao Kuanjia and his party out.
After the trick succeeded, he gave an order to have his subordinates kill the only housekeeper Zhao's family who knew the truth.After all, only the dead can keep secrets, right?
After doing all this, Lin Futong felt that he could rest easy, so he put his mind on finding a way to deal with those people who came up and stepped on him because he lost power.Lin Futong looked at the list with sullen eyes, and raised his lips to show a cold smile. He will not let any of these people go!
But after thousands of calculations, they didn't expect that they would investigate Steward Zhao so quickly, and forced him to write a notice and post it all over the city.Although he knew that what they did was useless, Zhao Kuan still couldn't help being a little nervous. These days he couldn't eat, couldn't sleep at night, and couldn't help his heart beating every time there was a disturbance.
The news I heard today is exactly the fulfillment of the saying, good things don't go out, bad things spread thousands of miles.He thought Steward Zhao, who was supposed to be dead, suddenly came back to life, and was found and brought back by the imperial envoy.Thinking of what Butler Zhao would say when he woke up, Lin Futong broke into a cold sweat.Or, is he already confessing now?
"Dong dong——" the door was knocked suddenly, and Lin Fu stood up abruptly in surprise, his eyes fixed on the door that made the sound, and he guessed the identity of the visitor in his heart.
The people outside the room saw that the door was always closed, so they knocked on the door harder, knocking back and saying: "Lord Lin, it's me!"
Lin Futong lost all his strength, walked to the door, opened the latch, and let Qi Lu straight in.
"You're not mentioning the department at this time, what are you doing here? Don't you think things are not messy enough?" Lin Futong scolded angrily.
Qi Lu was dissatisfied with his attitude, but he couldn't see it on his face.
"My lord, I'm here to help you solve your problems. Are you worried about the fact that Butler Zhao was found? The lower officials have a way to solve this problem."
"What way?" Lin Futong stepped forward excitedly, grabbed Qi Luzhi's skirt and said.
"Hehe, it's very easy for Butler Zhao not to tell the truth, as long as he can't speak again." Qi Lu pretended to be mysterious.
Lin Futong glared at him, and let go of his hand: "I thought you really had some good idea? You've been arguing for a long time to amuse me? Could it be that I can't think of this way?"
Qi Luzhi shook his head quickly: "How dare the lower officials entertain adults? I really have a way, but this matter still needs the cooperation of adults?"
"You mean?"
"Yes, my lord, we can do this—" Qi Lu whispered something in Lin Futong's ear.
Lin Futong's brows changed from frowning to relaxed, and finally burst into a burst of laughter, which shows how much this idea is in his heart.
On the other side, Mu Yuanxiu's subordinates took several doctors to the place where Mu Yuanxiu was staying after making a big publicity that he had captured Butler Zhao.
"My lord, the doctor has already invited them over. Do you want them to come in and have a look?" the subordinate asked through the door.
Mu Yuanxiu replied, "Wait for a while."
After the subordinate responded, he led the people to wait outside the door.Inside the door, Chu Ci and Mu Yuanxiu looked at Butler Zhao, who had a waxy face on the bed, and felt a sense of deep helplessness in their hearts.
How excited I was when I first heard the news, how frustrated I am now.It's true that Steward Zhao is still alive, but what's the difference between living like this and being dead?
Just as they were trying to find a way to hide the truth from the doctors outside, someone outside suddenly reported:
"The Governor is here!"
"What is he doing here?" Mu Yuanxiu said with a gloomy face.
"Presumably he came here to find out the truth. He will only be more anxious than us about Steward Zhao's matter." Chu Ci said, he originally only wanted to bring Lin Futong to justice, and he had no selfish intentions.But later on, he was so ruthless, fighting with him would only kill you, if you don't overthrow him, sooner or later, he will strike at them.
"Idiots! They are all idiots! Didn't they tell them to kill the weeds? How could they still be left alive?" Lin Futong clenched his hands into fists, trembling slightly. Couldn't think of any countermeasures.
