Chapter 055 Gui County

Lin Zimo saw that Chu Hanlu did not continue to fool around, but quietly sat on the chair and ate her peach kernels. He didn't blame her. After all, the originator of all this was Chu Dalang. Before leaving the east wing, Lin Zimo, who did not show any strange expression, asked him to come to the front hall to see himself. He has some words that he must talk to Chu Dalang alone.

Lin Zimo, who was sitting in the middle of the chair in the front hall, let his servants go down, and then tasted tea while waiting for Chu Dalang. Chu Dalang, who was worried, came to the front hall in detail. Without saying a word, he knelt on the ground and waited for Lin Zimo's departure. Kneeling on the ground, he faintly felt an ominous foreboding.

Lin Zimo slowly put down the tea in his hand, and his face was as calm as water. Every word in his words revealed considerable weight and said, "If it hadn't been for the sake of the little girl's own brother, I'm afraid I would have killed you."

Chu Dalang shudged all over, making his whole body feel uncomfortable as if he were in the ice cellar. Knowing what he said is definitely not a pretentiousness. Chu Dalang knew that all the affairs in Pingnan County had fallen into Lin Zimo's hands. If he really wants to kill himself, he doesn't need to do it himself. After all, there are many people who are willing to serve him.

Lin Zimo's expression remained unchanged, and his tone showed a murderous intention: "Your fault is that you should not come to play with my backyard. Whoever makes my backyard unstable, I will make anyone die ugly.

Chu Dalang, who was scared, quickly kowtowed and admitted his mistake and said, "I know it's wrong. In the future, I will never dare to do it again. You are an adult who doesn't remember the villain, and I was so obsessed that I did such a stupid and ridiculous thing.

Lin Zimo, who was sitting on the chair, rarely saw his miserable appearance, so he asked him to get up. Before letting him leave, I won't forget to beat him again. Lin Zimo sincerely didn't want Chu Dalang to have another time, otherwise he would really raise his butcher's knife. He hates this kind of behavior very much.

Chu Dalang, who walked out of the gate of the Lin family, stood outside the gate with a sigh of relief and felt that he had walked outside the ghost gate. His underwear has been soaked with cold sweat. Although I knew that Lin Zimo would not settle accounts with him again, I would not continue to be afraid. Just now, he did not feel that the person in front of him was his brother-in-law, but saw an impermanent ghost who was ready to seduce. Chu Dalang suddenly recalled what his second brother had said to him and really understood the deep meaning of his words.

Lin Zimo, still sitting on the chair, showed indifference and tranquility, as if nothing had happened before. The illusion is what he said, like a joke, not a statement that really wants to take people's lives. He picked up the tea again and continued to taste the cup of tea.

Yang Mengqi, who happened to hear Lin Zimo and Chu Dalang talking, came out and sat on the chair next to him and said, "Isn't your husband too harsh? Chu Dalang is at least the eldest brother of the little girl.

"I have been thinking about my relatives, otherwise he can't live." Lin Zimo said slowly.

It's hard to talk more about Yang Mengqi and he talked a few common gossips, and then got up and left. As soon as she walked out of the front hall and came to her door, she met the burning Zhao Wenxuan. He didn't notice Yang Mengqi coming towards him. When he saw it, he quickly avoided it sideways, so that the two of them did not bump into each other.

Zhao Wenxuan, who stood there, quickly apologized sincerely, "I frightened my sister-in-law. Wenxuan is not good at all this. I was so reckless that I almost hurt you.

"Uncle, don't worry too much." Yang Mengqi quickly saluted and said, "I think you must have an urgent matter to discuss with your partner, so that you didn't notice that the slave came over."

"This matter is indeed a little urgent, but not too urgent." Zhao Wenxuan saw that she was not an outsider and blurted out: "Some days ago, our Pingnan County was attacked by the rebels, and I sent a total of three soldiers to the house to move rescue soldiers. Two of them were killed by the rebels. Another one got lost because he was not familiar with the road. He ran to the boundary of Gui County in a muddle and saw that the rebels were attacking the city of Gui County. I didn't know that he got the news that our Pingnan County had been cleared, so he ran back. I just got the news and came here to discuss it with my brother.

Yang Mengqi's face changed from red to pale in an instant. My father is still in the county seat of your county. When she got this news from Zhao Wenxuan, it should have been the past few days. Yang Mengqi was extremely worried about his father's safety and was afraid that Gui County would be conquered by the rebels. Standing still, she was motionless, and her eyes were distracted and looking at a place.

Zhao Wenxuan, who has never looked at the woman, naturally did not notice her facial expression. After saying the words, he saluted and went to Lin Zimo to discuss it. Although the safety of your county is not directly related to them, the appearance of the rebels is a signal. They can't be paralyzed, otherwise Pingnan County will be out of protection.

Lin Zimo was not surprised when he saw his arrival, but said with a smile, "Brother, sit down for a moment. Tonight, Mengqi made your favorite braised fish. You should eat more and don't live up to your sister-in-law's kindness.

Zhao Wenxuan, who was in the mood to pay attention to such a small thing, sat on the armchair, took Lin Zimo's tea, took two sips to quench his thirst and said, "Our people will repay you. A few days ago, the rebels were attacking your county.

Lin Zimo, who put away his smile, said seriously, "Judging from your experience, can your county keep it?"

Zhao Wenxuan, who put the tea on the table, shook his head and said seriously, "I guess most of your county has been conquered by the rebels."

With a crash, the tea bowl brought by Yang Mengqi for Zhao Wenxuan fell to the ground and smashed it. Her eyes couldn't help but turn red, and tears fell out of her eyes without her control.

Lin Zimo focused his attention on her, so he got up and walked to her, pulled up her two white little hands, examined them carefully, and asked with concern, "Are you hurt?"

Yang Mengqi, who bit his lower lip, kept pouring out tears from his eyes and shook his head, which was an answer to him.

Lin Zimo suddenly didn't understand, "Since you are not injured, why are you crying?"

Yang Mengqi, who glanced at him, turned around and ran to his room without saying a word.

Zhao Wenxuan, who stood up, walked to him and said more confusedly, "Sister-in-law, she is..."

"Let's get to business first." Lin Zimo shook his head and didn't understand.

The two sat back in their respective seats and talked about military affairs. Lin Zimo, who knew the situation was urgent, meant very clearly. Within two days, if the big families don't hand over the 100,000 taels of silver to him, they will kill the chicken for the monkey. He asked Zhao Wenxuan to pull these young masters to death in public. If something really happens, he will bear it alone.

Zhao Wenxuan is extremely fraternal, so he doesn't want Lin Zi to come forward to shoulder this responsibility, but he has to bear it himself. Lin Zimo was unwilling, so the two brothers had a fierce quarrel about this matter and almost started to fight.

Lin Zi, who calmed down, said silently, "At present, it's still a small matter for us to take responsibility. You have to pull up the team quickly. If the rebels come to our side after fighting your county, it will be troublesome.

"Brother, don't worry. I have been recruiting brave soldiers for a long time. Zhao Wenxuan told the truth and said, "If those big people really dare not take out the money, then I will take people to dress up as robbers and go to their respective homes to rob them."

Don't be impulsive. They will definitely hand over the money to me. Lin Zimo told him, "You have to train them quickly. I just want them not to be so scared that their legs are weak and hold the knife firmly.

"I will try my best to do it." Zhao Wenxuan said with a murderous face, "In this extraordinary period, if they dare not to contribute, desert and be a bastard. I'm going to take out my iron-blooded wrist. It's not to beat their sticks, but to their heads.

"I won't leave you here for dinner." Lin Zimo said, "Go quickly and do what we have discussed."

Zhao Wenxuan, who got up and said goodbye, hurried to do business. He was not in a hurry to do his own business, but returned to Beifang to find out why Yang Mengqi was sad. Lin Zimo, who was really strange, found that she was fine not long ago. She turned around and left for a while, and how did she look like that? Yang Mengqi, sitting on the edge of the bed, cried so sadly. Before he came close to her, his heart was entangled.

"Madam, tell me about it?" Lin Zimo sat next to her and gently stroked her back.

Yang Mengqi, with tears on his face, didn't want to add chaos to him and said, "Your father-in-law, let the slave family cry well!"

Lin Zimo judged that there must be something wrong with her, otherwise she would not have looked like this. He asked again and again with kind words, but Yang Mengqi cried and did not answer directly.

Lin Zimo, who got up, walked around the room anxiously, suddenly stopped and said uncertainly, "I remember that old Mount Tai seems to live in Gui County? Does your husband and daughter seem to be from your county?

When Yang Mengqi heard the word 'Gui County', he immediately thought of his father, so he cried even more sadly. Her instinctive move was to let Lin Zimo get the answer. With a helpless face, he stared at his hair-haired wife, and his heart was like turning over the sea.
