Chapter 422: A plan to divorce

Zou Jiang was very loyal to Zou Xian Cheng. After receiving the news, he immediately went to see Zou Xian Cheng and told the story about Aunt Lu and the female members of the Lu family who were killed by water bandits.

Zou Xiancheng just said lightly: "I understand."

Seeing this, Zou Jiang could no longer hold back and said: "Master, have you swept your tail clean? You can't let those people bite you. They are all desperadoes who lick blood from their swords. If..."

"Shut up!" Zou Xiancheng shouted loudly, staring directly at Zou Jiang with his eyes sunken due to a serious illness: "How dare you investigate me, Zou Jiang, you are so brave."

Zou Jiang hurriedly explained: "Master, I didn't check you. I received the news from the county government, and then I thought of the old farmer who sent the water chestnuts, so I suspected that the master did it."

He also assured: "Master, don't worry, you are very kind to me. Even if I die, I will not betray you. I came to ask because I am afraid that I will be found out if I don't clean up my tail."

After hearing this, Zou County Cheng's face remained gloomy.

After so many years, Zou Jiang is still smarter than him. He guessed that he bribed the water bandit to murder Aunt Lu just through a letter and an old farmer delivering water chestnuts.

Zou Xiancheng was very angry. Why could Zou Jiang still behave calmly even though he had abused Zou Jiang all his life? Logically speaking, shouldn't a child prodigy like Zou Jiang be unable to bear the humiliation of slavery and commit suicide?

Zou Xiancheng looked at Zou Jiang and suddenly felt that it was wrong to use such hard work to defeat a child prodigy. Just because his life is no better than Zou Jiang's now.

Zou Jiangs mother and daughter-in-law died, and he never remarried and had no children. But he himself was given the drug to kill his heir, was cuckolded by his son, and became the laughing stock of the entire county. His three sons were ineffective, and his grandson was useless. He was no worse than a dead heir.

"Hahaha~" Zou Xiancheng burst out laughing, which frightened Zou Jiang. He quickly stepped forward to support him and said, "Master, if you feel uncomfortable, just say it. Don't keep it in your heart."

Zou Jiang is really afraid that Zou Xiancheng will be driven crazy by recent events.

After hearing this, Zou County Cheng immediately stopped laughing and pushed Zou Jiang away: "I'm fine, please step back."

He added: "You are overthinking. There are often water bandits on the Huaihe River. What happened to Aunt Lu is just a coincidence. You don't have to worry too much. And when I am doing things, has there ever been a time when I didn't clean up my tail?"

Zou Xiancheng did not admit that he let the water bandits torture and kill Aunt Lu. Once some things are admitted, they can be used as leverage. Zou Xiancheng has begun to be wary of Zou Jiang and will not expose his old background to him.

However, Zou Jiang reminded him that Cripple Six could not stay. If Zou Jiang could find him, so could others.

As for Zou Jiang...Zou Xiancheng didn't want Zou Jiang to die so easily.

He kept Zou Jiang for practice, but now he compared it and found that his life was no better than Zou Jiang's. He had to take advantage of Zou Jiang while he was still alive, and completely trample this child prodigy who was once famous in He'an Prefecture counties under his feet, making even his death extremely miserable.

Zou Jiang saw that Zou County Cheng did not listen to his advice, so he had no choice but to retreat.

In the county government office, Master Tian's face darkened when he learned that Aunt Lu had been killed by water bandits.

He thought about what Gu Jinli reminded him that day and felt that this matter was unusual. He looked at County Magistrate Xu and said, "Sir, that person would not have the courage and ability to collude..."

"Master Tian, be careful what you say." County Magistrate Xu interrupted Master Tian: "This matter is too big. We have no evidence, so it's not easy to talk nonsense...it's not worth it."

This kind of matter of officials colluding with water bandits is not something that a county magistrate without a backer can handle. And he was about to be transferred, but he didn't want to lose his life over such a thing before leaving.

Master Tian knew that Magistrate Xu was timid and just wanted to get credit without taking risks. It was a pity to see that he was unwilling to touch this matter.

Perhaps the county magistrate was his boss, and he had to obey the order and had no choice but to let the matter go. However, Lieutenant Jiang County has been keeping an eye on the Zou family. However, Prime Minister Zou County has become cautious and low-key recently. He does not leave the mansion himself, but also restrains the servants in the mansion, not allowing them to leave the mansion at will, and not allowing them to leave the mansion at will. Misbehaving.

He even released Mrs. Zou, who had been grounded, and asked Master Shao to personally teach Zou Yukun's son, planning to let him inherit the Zou family.

Zou Yukun's wife originally wanted to make peace with Zou Yukun, but after her son was carefully taught and knew that the Zou family would be passed on to her son, she stopped making trouble and ignored Zou Yukun, just treating him as dead.

Zou Yuqian died in Lianshan Village a long time ago. However, Zou County Cheng did not pay him a funeral, but quietly had him buried. He told the public that he was ill and was recuperating in Zhuangzi.

Not long after Aunt Lu died, the lame Liushi who occasionally sent water chestnuts to the Zou Mansion never came again. He said that he was too old to do anything anymore, so he sold his house, fields, and a pond with water chestnuts, and took the money to go to his nephew in Jiangnan.

Cripple Six is a disabled old man, a childless little person. He will leave as soon as he leaves, and no one will care about him.

It's just that he didn't go to join his nephew, but went to the water bandit's village and settled there.

After Gu Jinli learned that Aunt Lu was killed by a water bandit, he took advantage of Qin Sanlang's return and asked him specifically: "Won't the county magistrate go investigate this matter?"

As long as you check it, you will be able to find out something.

Qin Sanlang shook his head: "Xu County Magistrate was timid and feared that he would lose his life, so he didn't dare to investigate. Jiang County Lieutenant took it seriously, but Zou County Cheng was cautious and swept his tail clean, so Jiang County Lieutenant couldn't find anything."

Gu Jinli frowned: "This is difficult to handle."

Qin Sanlang looked at her frown and said with relief: "Don't worry, I will handle these matters. I will definitely find evidence that Zou County Cheng colluded with the water bandits."

Qin Sanlang said it very seriously, but he was a little disappointed when he found that Gu Jinli didn't seem to hear him. He lowered his head and thought about something.

In the midst of extreme disappointment, Gu Jinli looked up at him and found that he had tanned recently and had grown a lot taller: "You have grown again. If you keep growing like this, when you grow up, you will be 1.9 meters tall." go."

Qin Sanlang was confused: "How tall is 1.9 meters? I am not a child, I have grown up."

He has reached the age of fifteen and is now an adult, ready to establish a household.

Gu Jinli looked at him and said, "How have you grown up? You're just a little kid."

How are you, a junior high school student?

However, now is not the time to discuss your height and age.

"Zou County Cheng is cautious. If we investigate slowly, how long will it take to find out? Don't you suspect that Zou County Cheng was responsible for the massacre of Zou Jiang's family? Then let's write an anonymous letter and send it to Zou Jiang." Gu Jinli smiled slyly. : "I don't care if he has evidence or not, let's separate Zou Xian Cheng and Zou Jiang first."

"What happened back then must have been a huge blow to Zou Jiang, otherwise he wouldn't have been so disheartened that he gave up his good job and became a slave. Just give him an anonymous letter to make him doubt what happened back then. He will definitely break up with Zou County Cheng."

"Zou Jiang has followed Zou Xiancheng for so many years, and he must know a lot of things about Zou Xiancheng. As long as Zou Jiang comes up with these clues, it will be difficult for Zou Xiancheng to figure it out."
