Chapter 89 089
Xiao Shirong was dressed neatly, held his head high, and was escorted out of the yamen.

"Young Master Xiao, go slowly." Ya almost nodded.

Xiao Shirong's face turned pale, and he took out a folded bank note and stuffed it in, "After all, I was a classmate with Ma Yaozu, please take good care of him for me."

The Yachai quickly accepted the banknote, reassuring Xiao Shirong.

There was a gorgeous carriage parked not far away, and the young man ran up when he saw the servants leaving, and patted the dirt on Xiao Shirong's clothes courteously, "The third master suddenly disappeared, the uncle and the wife are both dying of anxiety! Three Are you all right?"

Xiao Shirong snorted softly, "In Pingbei City, who can do anything to me?"

Opening the curtain of the car, Xiao Shirong saw a woman in her twenties with heavy make-up sitting inside.

Xiao Shirong immediately changed his face, and after getting into the car, he laughed and called out "Sister-in-law".

The woman is the fourth lady from the Li family, one of the four major merchants in the Qian Kingdom, and is now the mistress of the Xiao family.

She squinted her eyes and looked at Xiao Shirong, "What's going on?"

Xiao Shirong sat upright, "Someone knocked me out from home and sent me to Qianshan Academy!"

Xiao Li's expression changed, and he twisted the handkerchief in his hand, "Who?"

Xiao Shirong shrugged, "I don't know. Maybe it's Ning Jing?"

Xiao Li snorted coldly, "Ning Yao said that Ning Jing is weak and doesn't know martial arts, but he climbed up to Prince Jing's son, it seems that there are masters to protect him."

"Originally, the Xiao family had no grievances with Ning Jing, so Ma Yaozu refused to admit it. Unfortunately, recently, because of the third brother's son from his sister-in-law's family, Ning Jing suspected us." Xiao Shirong looked regretful, "Such a perfect plan fell through. null."

"You didn't explain it, did you?" Xiao Li asked.

Xiao Shirong smiled, "If I were so stupid, sister-in-law would not entrust such an important matter to me."

Xiao Li snorted softly, "Your brain is brilliant, so it's useless for the right way. After studying for so many years, you didn't even pass the exam for a scholar."

The Xiao family wanted to train scholars to test for fame, but Xiao Shirong failed.The Li family paid a lot of money to hire an old man who had been in Tanhua in his early years to teach the children in the family to study. Xiao Li sent her only son back to her natal family to study last year.

Xiao Shirong's eyes dimmed, and he said casually, "If I put my mind on the right way, wouldn't I have turned against my elder brother and sister-in-law?"

Xiao Li spat, "Excuse me! Without the Xiao family, what can you do?"

Xiao Shirong was not annoyed at all, he chuckled, "I just hope my sister-in-law will give me more money!"

"Stop talking! Tell me, what happened in the middle?" Xiao Li asked.

Xiao Shirong recounted his experience after waking up in the academy.

"I didn't see Ning Jing, but I saw a Miss Ning who claimed to be Ning Ning's sister, she is really a special beauty." Su Liang's small face appeared in Xiao Shirong's mind, and he licked his lower lip.

Xiao Li sneered, "Look, you're so greedy, wait for Ning Jing to be dealt with, and you can play whatever you want!"

"Then thank sister-in-law first." Xiao Shirong's smile deepened.

After hearing what had happened, Xiao Li also sighed, "I wasted an opportunity. I didn't expect that Ning Jing would have a younger sister by her side, and her medical skills are so good. Otherwise, as long as someone dies and raises a scholar, this matter will be considered a big deal." Now, Tranquility is absolutely inseparable! Now, we can only let Ma Yaozu die quickly, don't talk nonsense, so as not to implicate us!"

"Sister-in-law spends so much money every year managing the government, what are you afraid of?" Xiao Shirong disagreed.

"My father taught us since we were young that in business, it doesn't matter right or wrong, but the method must be clean, and you can't leave any clues. Otherwise, maybe a single negligence will cause you to lose everything!" Xiao Li said seriously.

Xiao Shirong still had a playful smile on his face, "Thank you sister-in-law for your advice."

……

The poisoning incident spread rapidly in Pingbei City that day.

But in the story version, there is peace and Ma Yaozu, but it has nothing to do with the Xiao family and Xiao Shirong.

Knowing this failure, Mrs. Xiao Li didn't make any further problems, and decided to make another plan.Apart from taking the Xiao family out, he didn't pour any other dirty water on Ping An.

Therefore, everyone in Pingbei City soon knew that there was a scholar from Bei'an County who failed the provincial examination and was jealous of Mr. Ning Ning, who was the leader of the case.

Thanks to the timely treatment, all the people in the academy survived, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous!
As soon as the news spread, it immediately aroused public outrage, and they all condemned Ma Yaozu, who read books into the stomach of dogs, and was cruel and merciless.

Although there are some people who are unclear about Ning Jing's fault in this matter, the arrangement of Ning Jing's showing off in front of Ma Yaozu and provoking Ma Yaozu's anger led to what happened next.

But there are few people who believe in such baseless rumors.

Most people think that Ma Yaozu himself is crazy, and it has nothing to do with peace.

It is worth mentioning that Su Liang's name did not spread.

No one in the academy went down the mountain. After Ma Yaozu and Xiao Shirong were taken away, the only people who came down from the mountain were the doctor who was invited last night, and they didn't know Su Liang's origin and name at all.

People who didn't know it thought it was those doctors who saved nearly a hundred people in the academy.

Many of them have a good face, and they don't want to say that they did nothing after all the trouble. They were all saved by a little girl with unknown origin. Facing praise, neither admitting nor denying it is equivalent to acquiescing.

There are also thick-skinned people who directly claim the credit for robbing Su Liang and fabricate how hard it is for them to save others.

After all, a good name is very important for a medical practitioner.If you have a reputation, you will have business and money.

……

The Xiao family is located in the east of Pingbei City, covering a large area.

At sunset, Xiao Shirong came out from his elder brother, planning to change clothes and go to the brothel to listen to music.

Back in the room, Xiao Shirong closed the door, opened the closet, picked out a brocade robe, and just put it on, a black shadow approached silently behind him, and then, a brick hit the back of his head.

Blood flowed down Xiao Shirong's ears and into his neck, soaking through the new clothes he had just changed into. He didn't even have a chance to utter an exclamation before he fainted to the ground.

On the other side, Xiao Shihao, the patriarch of the Xiao family, is currently rubbing the shoulders of Mrs. Xiao Li. With just a few words, the couple have decided that Ma Yaozu will "suicide in fear of crime" in prison tonight. It is easy to take money to manage.

"I knew that I would not accept Ning Yao's nonsense, but Ning Jing is quite difficult." Xiao Shihao snorted coldly.

Xiao Li closed her eyes and leaned her head back on Xiao Shihao's chest, with a lazy expression, "Don't you want to be dominated by my natal family for the rest of your life? There must be outsiders to join hands, otherwise our business will always be controlled by the Li family."

"My lady really loves her husband." Xiao Shihao's expression was moved.

The atmosphere became more ambiguous, and the two were about to make love when a black shadow floated over, raised the blood-stained brick in his hand, and slapped Xiao Shihao on the head.

Xiao Lishi, who had her eyes closed, heard a strange sound, and a thick liquid flowed onto her face. When she opened her eyes, she couldn't see anything clearly. She was also hit in the head by the same brick, and passed out. !

And the unmarried second master of the Xiao family went away to discuss business and would not be back until the end of the year.

The last smear of red in the western sky was also swallowed up. Ning Jing glanced at the blood-stained dark color on the tiles, threw it into the lake in the back garden of Xiao's house, and left quietly.

As soon as Ning Jing left, Xiao's house was filled with screams and cries.

He went back to the house he bought with Su Liang, picked up the packed package, put on the bamboo hat, and rode away from Pingbei City.

……

Su Liang, who was cooking dinner in the academy at this time, didn't know that Ning Jing had already used bricks to fire the three people who were the masters of Xiao's family before leaving, thinking that he had already left the city.

When Lin Xueqing woke up, the sky was dark. When she went out, she smelled the aroma from the kitchen. She walked over quickly and saw a familiar figure, with a surprised look on her face, "Sister Su, are you still there?"

Originally, Su Liang and Ning Jing planned to leave Pingbei City early this morning and return to Bei'an County.When Lin Xueqing woke up, she thought that they might have already left, but she didn't expect that Su Liang not only didn't leave, but was still in the academy.

"There's hot water, wash your face." Su Liang smiled, and told Lin Xueqing the truth about the poisoning case last night and why they didn't leave.

Lin Xueqing listened, momentarily indignant, momentarily frightened.

After listening to it, she also washed up, came over to light the fire, and sighed, "Senior brother Ning is really miserable. There is such a family here. No, they are not human at all! Brother Ning originally planned to hand over the family business to Ning Yao, he wants to kill Senior Brother Ning! It's shameless! The Xiao family is inhumane for profit! Ma Yaozu deserves to die too!"

"The more Ning Jing is tolerant to Ning Yao, the more he will push forward. This time, innocent people were involved, almost killing them, and it's unbearable." Su Liang said.

Lin Xueqing realized something was wrong belatedly, "Senior brother Ning...he knows martial arts?"

Su Liang nodded, "Actually, he taught me my martial arts." Not all of them.

Lin Xueqing looked shocked, "Is he that powerful? We haven't seen each other for three years!"

Su Liang smiled, "Actually, I've only known him for more than three months, and I don't know how he spent the past three years."

Lin Xueqing sighed, "My second brother practiced martial arts since he was a child, and it's been hard work. Brother Ning has only practiced for three years. If he is that good, he must have put in more effort than others, and it will only work harder."

"In life, if you have something you want to do and get, you have to pay for it." Su Liang said, "He knows what he is doing, so you don't have to think too much."

Lin Xueqing nodded heavily, "Sister Su is right. I'm actually very happy. Although Senior Brother Ning is not talkative or laughing now, he is not depressed or complaining."

After finishing dinner, the two went to find Lin Shuzhi.

In the afternoon, officers and soldiers came to deal with the well, and a lot of water was brought up one after another, and she confirmed that there was no problem with the water that was finally sent to Su Liang.

Lin Shuzhi visited the students again, and just came back to change his clothes. Seeing Lin Xueqing and Su Liang approaching, his eyes softened, "Liang girl, you should take a good rest, you are the hardest one."

"I will go to bed early tonight." Su Liang nodded.

After dinner, Lin Shuzhi looked worried, "Jing'er is gone, leaving you in Pingbei City, will the Xiao family follow you, which will be bad for you?"

Su Liang was very calm, "Master, don't worry. If they really dare to trouble me, I will show them some color!"

She saw that Xiao Shirong was very distasteful, wishing she could sneak into Xiao's house tonight, grab a brick and shoot him!
But Ning Jing is not here, Su Liang doesn't want to take the initiative to provoke trouble, she is fine by herself, afraid of causing trouble to the Lin family father and daughter.

Seeing Lin Shuzhi sighing again, Su Liang said seriously, "I think all the officials in Pingbei City have been bribed by the Xiao family. Ma Yaozu has already been convicted, and he may die in prison tonight. It is even less likely that Xiao Shirong's family will be arrested by then." The crime was made public."

Lin Shuzhi looked disappointed, "It wasn't like this in the early years, but it's getting worse and worse in the past two years."

"Father wanted to report to the court, but we knew they were not clean, but we didn't have any evidence." Lin Xueqing said.

"Master, since that's the case, it's better to leave as soon as possible. This place is no longer the simple and quiet place that Master wants." Su Liang said.

Lin Shuzhi was stunned for a moment, "I plan to hand over the academy until before the Chinese New Year, and take Xueqing to the capital. It's not good for a family to stay together."

"It's not too far away for more than a month. Master, why don't you write a letter to Brother Lin earlier and ask them to send someone to pick you up. To avoid long nights and dreams." Su Liang said, "Up to now, how far can the students who have passed the Juren exam go? , mainly relying on themselves. And there are other teachers in the academy, the master should also plan more for his own children."

"Yes, yes!" Lin Xueqing nodded again and again, "Sister Su made a lot of sense! I don't know who sent the assassin before. When we go to the capital, it will be safer than here. After all, Dad is not an unknown person." .”

"This..." Lin Shuzhi hesitated.It was because of the assassination that I decided to go to the capital for the New Year, but I never thought that I would leave soon.

After all, this academy is his painstaking effort for many years, but he also knows that what Su Liang said makes sense.

If it wasn't for the academy, Lin Shuzhi would have reunited with his two sons long ago with his daughter.He has paid a lot and owes three children.

"After this incident, Master fell ill and has no energy to take care of the academy anymore. Please resign and leave for the capital, which is reasonable." Su Liang had already thought about how Lin Shuzhi would get out smoothly.

"I think it's okay!" Lin Xueqing agreed with both hands, "Look how tired Dad is? If it wasn't for Sister Su to take care of him, he might really fall ill! I'll write a letter to my eldest brother and second brother tonight, and wait for Senior Brother Ning to come from Xun When Yangcheng comes back and takes away Sister Su, let's go to the capital!"

Seeing the eager anticipation in Lin Xueqing's eyes, Lin Shuzhi sighed and finally nodded, "Okay! That's it!"

He also planned to write a secret letter to report these corrupt officials in Pingbei City when he arrived in the capital.

……

Silent all night.

Early the next morning, someone from the government came to look for Lin Shuzhi, and Su Liang was also there, and learned an unexpected news.

"My lord has verified that what Ma Yaozu said is true. The poison was indeed given to Ma Yaozu by Xiao Shirong, the third son of the Xiao family. Xiao Shirong lured Ma Yaozu into committing the crime. The Xiao family is the mastermind of the poisoning case!"

Su Liang felt very strange.The one who came was the one who defended Xiao Shirong yesterday, the master of the government office.

Yesterday Xiao Shirong was taken to the government office, and soon returned home unscathed, Su Liang knew about this.

Why did the wind direction suddenly change overnight?

Lin Shuzhi was also surprised, "Only based on Ma Yaozu's testimony..."

The master shook his head, "Last night, Patriarch Xiao and his wife and Xiao Shirong committed suicide in fear of crime at home! After the servants of the Xiao family reported the crime, the adults sent people to search and found poison in Xiao Shirong's room, and the servants confessed that Patriarch Xiao and the Ning family in Xunyang committed suicide. Ning Yao conspired to frame Mr. Ning Jing! The methods are vicious and outrageous!"

Su Liang was completely dumbfounded.She was still saying last night that the officials in Pingbei City were corrupt and broke the law. Could it be that she had some misunderstanding?wrong!How could those three bad guys of the Xiao family commit suicide in fear of crime?

The master said sternly, "The truth of the case is revealed, all the properties of the Xiao family were fined and confiscated! My lord said that every person in the academy who suffered an unreasonable disaster will be given a pension of ten taels of silver, and it will be sent later today. Dean Lin please send it down!" "

Lin Shuzhi was full of doubts and didn't feel comfortable asking, so he said a few polite words and sent the master away.

And when Su Liang heard the master said that the Xiao family's property was confiscated, he reacted.

It is absolutely impossible for the master of the Xiao family to commit suicide. They have already taken care of the people in the government, so they have nothing to fear.

In the end, the result was either that officials who were greedy for money and wanted to swallow up the Xiao family took the opportunity to kill them, and embezzled the Xiao family's property logically.

Or, the three members of the Xiao family were accidentally killed by someone else, and the officials "had an idea" to take advantage of this case and use Ma Yaozu's testimony to convict the Xiao family, pretending to be afraid of crime Suicide, taking advantage of the trend to embezzle property.

After thinking about it, Su Liang felt that the latter was more likely.The government originally had a community of interests with the Xiao family. If they wanted to seize the opportunity to take down the Xiao family, they would have to accept Ma Yaozu's testimony from the beginning and convict the Xiao family. There was no need to change their face overnight.

And the person who acts on behalf of the sky, there can be no one else except peace.

It is said that after Ning Jing left, Lin Shuzhi was worried, and Su Liang was also worried that the Xiao family would be unfavorable to her. Unexpectedly, someone did what Su Liang wanted to do most, and solved the next hidden danger.

This result is of course excellent, but Su Liang was a little upset that Ning Jing left without mentioning a single word.

She looked out the window and whispered to herself, "You can die if you say it, really..."
