Great Tang Dynasty

Chapter 1541
At the end of summer, the cicadas are making noise.

The prison in Danjiang City Government Office is still sweltering, and the prisoners who just came in couldn't stand it a few days ago, and they had an urge to seek death.

Those who have been in prison for a long time and are used to it are relatively better.

After retiring, Zhang Duo went to the government office prison.

As soon as I walked in, I could smell a bad smell.

He frowned slightly, but didn't say anything, and went directly to the interrogation room.

"Go and bring Zhu Xiao and Zhao Er."

Not long after, Zhu Xiao and Zhao Er were brought to the interrogation room.

After the two of them were brought, Zhang Duo was not in a hurry to ask questions, he just waved his hand: "Twenty big boards first."

These two people actually pushed his sister out, and he had the intention of killing these two people.

But he has his own plan for this matter, so Zhu Xiao and Zhao Er can't die yet.

After the twenty big boards were beaten down, Zhu Xiao and Zhao Er's buttocks were blooming, and they screamed.

It wasn't until this time that Zhang Duo finally asked.

"Tell me, what's going on?"

Zhang Duo's tone was cold, as if they might give them another [-] big boards at any time, Zhu Xiao and Zhao Er hesitated for a moment, thinking of Zhang Duo's casual beating of them just now, they immediately shuddered.

"Sir, forgive me."

"My lord, please forgive me, we are forced to do nothing."

The two began to beg for mercy, Zhang Duo snorted and said, "Being forced to do nothing?"

"Yes, my lord, we are really forced to do nothing."

"Why is one forced to be helpless?"

Zhu Xiaodao: "My lord, we don't want to betray Madam, but after we were arrested, Jia Fugui guessed that Madam ordered us, and that man named Qin Donglai gave us a kind of poison and asked us to listen His arrangement is to confess his wife on the Tang Dynasty, if we don't say it, we will die soon, my lord, we...we are also forced to do nothing."

Hearing this, Zhang Duo's eyes revealed a killing intent.

Although the few of them were forced to do nothing, but in the end they did the thing of betraying his sister, which in his opinion was simply intolerable.

However, Zhang Duo still endured it patiently. These two people are still useful. Since they are useful, they cannot be killed.

"So that's what happened, but after all you betrayed your wife, it might not be easy for you to survive."

Zhang Duo's eyes were sinister, Zhu Xiao and Zhao Er saw this, they knelt down on the ground in fright, and kowtowed.

"Forgive your life, my lord, spare your life."

"As long as your lord spares our lives, we are willing to work hard for your lord. Please hold your hand high."

"........."

The two were very desperate, so when they begged for mercy, they almost cried.

Zhang Duo pretended to hesitate for a while, and then said: "It's easy to survive. After two days, I will be promoted again. You said that you were coerced by that Qin Donglai, so you said that Madam is the person behind the scenes. It's not like this at all, you were instructed by them to come up with a trick to seize Jia's property, are you willing to do this?"

With the [-] big boards just now, Zhu Xiao and Zhao Er are now extremely obedient, and as soon as Zhang Duo opened his mouth, they nodded quickly.

"Do it, definitely do it, as long as the adults can keep us alive."

"As long as the adults are willing to spare our lives, the adults can do whatever they want us to do."

Seeing that both of them agreed, Zhang Duo nodded: "Okay, then it's settled. If you dare to go back on your word, I will let you die without a place to bury you."

"Don't dare, don't dare, sir, don't worry, we only listen to what you say."

Zhang Duo nodded, and then ordered: "Change the two of them to a clean cell, and the food will be better."

After hearing this, the jailer next to him quickly took orders. Zhu Xiao and Zhao Er looked at each other and smiled when they heard this.

The Jia family is not considered a top rich family in Danjiang City, but in comparison, it is not much worse.

The money they have accumulated cannot be spent by the entire family in a few lifetimes.

The only downside is that the population is not prosperous enough.

And the reason why this happens is still related to the old man.

Back then, the old man was just a poor and lowly scholar, and his life was difficult, but during those difficult days, there was a girl who never left him, didn't care that he was unsuccessful, let alone that he was poor.

And this woman later became his wife, the only wife.

And this only wife gave birth to only one son for him, that is, the uncle of the Jia family, Jia Bochang.

Originally, Mrs. Jia thought that their Jia family would always have no offspring. He never thought that his only son was not considered pedantic. He knew that he would raise a foreign house outside and gave birth to a grandson for them.

This gave him a rare excitement.

Counting the days, his old housekeeper should be able to bring his grandson back in the past few days, so in the past few days, Mrs. Jia often looked in the direction of the gate, but he was always disappointed in the past few days.

Today, just as he was going to see if his grandson was back, a servant ran over in a hurry.

"Old master, the old butler is back, and brought the young master with him."

Hearing that Jia Fugui had returned and brought his grandson back, the old master Jia was immediately overjoyed, and regardless of his old age, he hurried towards the door with the support of others.

As soon as he came to the front yard, he saw Jia Fugui and Jia Wang next to him.

"This is my grandson?"

Old Master Jia touched Jia Wang's head, which was as beautiful as a porcelain doll, and was so excited that he almost burst into tears.

"Master, this is the young master."

Old Mrs. Jia nodded, and wanted to hug Jia Wang to have a look, but he was old and couldn't hug him, so he could only hug him in the end.

Jia Wang was a little scared at first, but he didn't get a little more intimate until Jia Fugui said that this was his grandfather.

When the grandfather and grandson met for the first time, the old one was in tears, and the young one looked nervous and ignorant, which gave people the feeling that it was human.

After exchanging pleasantries like this, Jia Fugui told them what happened on the way, and when he heard that Mrs. Zhang wanted to kill his only grandson, Mrs. Jia was so angry that he almost vomited blood.

"Evil woman, really evil woman, dare to harm my grandson, oh..."

Old Mrs. Jia couldn't help but sighed: "blame me, blame me. Back then, I thought that I could cling to the Zhang family and have some contacts with the imperial court, so that my Jia family's business would be easier to do, so I matched the two of them. People's marriage, I never thought it would end up like this, regret it, regret it."
