Chapter 144: Secret Fortune
After everyone sat down, Liu Mingzhi looked at Song Yun and Song Lei opposite him and asked, "Are these two brothers Song Yun and sister Song Lei?"
Song Qing said to his younger brothers and sisters: "Didn't you see the third brother speaking to you? You're still not polite."
"My younger brother Song Yun and my younger sister Song Lei have met our third brother and sister-in-law."
"Don't be too polite. We are all members of the same family and don't have that much etiquette."
Liu Mingzhi looked at the wound on Song Yun's face that was swollen and looked like a pig's head. He couldn't bear to look at it. He looked at Liu Mingli who was sitting at the side. How could this kid have the skinny to avenge him? Song Yun's injured position was so... Much more serious than him.
Thinking of the two bruised and bruised guys exchanging greetings when they first entered the house, it was almost like they were brothers. I couldn't help but shake my head and chuckle. It's really not like the same family doesn't belong to the same house, these two guys are incompatible.
kindness? Liu Mingzhi suddenly looked at Liu Mingli with amusement, and saw that he kept stealing glances at the little girl Song Lei opposite him, with black lines on his forehead jumping out, thinking that this little kid Liu Mingli would never have sex.
Taking a closer look at Song Lei across from her, she was indeed a beauty. I wonder if she will kiss her in the future, Liu Mingzhi thought nonsensically.
"Brother Qing, how is your uncle's health? Jinling is a long way from the capital. I wanted to pay him a visit, but things have been stuck and I can't get away at all. Instead, I bothered you to make a trip."
"My dear brother, you are determined. My father is still in good health, but as he gets older, he is unable to do many things."
But Liu Mingzhi found that Song Qing was hesitant to speak. Is there something that was not easy to say in front of everyone?
After thinking about it, he said to Mrs. Liu and Qi Yun: "Mother, Yun'er, Song Yun and Song Lei must have had a lot of food and drink during the long journey. You take them to the backyard to rest and let the kitchen cook something good." Wine and food, the old man and I will have a good drink with Brother Qing."
Mrs. Liu was stunned. She said so well that she suddenly had to prepare food. She wanted to see what Liu Zhi'an meant. Liu Zhi'an knew her son well and knew that there must be some special reason for wanting to distract everyone. Although They are not the so-called idlers, but some words are not suitable for women and children to listen to.
"Madam, just do as Zhi'er said. It's time to eat."
Mrs. Liu nodded and led everyone out of the living room. Song Yun was completely familiar with it, without any sense of urgency. He had a heated fight with Liu Mingli. The little girl Song Lei followed Tuanzi closely without looking embarrassed. This is the best. But that's it.
After everyone left, Liu Mingzhi tried to ask Song Qing: "Brother, I saw you looked embarrassed and hesitated to speak. Is there something you shouldn't say to everyone?"
Song Qing looked shocked and secretly thought that his third brother was no longer the ignorant boy he was before: "My good brother has finally grown up and knows how to watch people's emotions."
"Brother is so impressed."
Liu Zhi'an also looked at Song Qing in surprise: "Qing'er, there are only three of us, father and son, in the hall now. If you have anything to say, just say it."
Song Qing breathed a sigh of relief: "Uncle, my nephew dare not hide it from his uncle. In fact, my nephew came here for two reasons. One is to congratulate his third brother, and the other is to see if Ling Yang has returned to Jiangnan. He defected to his uncle."
Liu Zhi'an was stunned: "What? Ling Yang is missing? Wasn't he arranged by your father in a house on the outskirts of the capital? How could he disappear? When did it happen?"
"It's been nearly three months. At that time, my nephew and my father thought that Ling Yang just couldn't bear the loneliness and went out for a walk. Because it had been a long time and the house was remote, it was almost impossible for anyone to discover his identity, so they didn't care. But Ling Yang suddenly disappeared for more than half a month and did not return to the old house, so my nephew and my father realized that something was wrong."
"Will you be caught by the guards?"
"After Ling Yang disappeared, my nephew and my father secretly searched various places inside and outside the capital, but could not find any trace of him. My father had also thought about what my uncle said, so he privately inquired with the Ministry of Punishment and Dali Temple about all the prisoners in custody. There was no such person as Ling Yang. My father was afraid that Ling Yang would not reveal his true identity, so he ordered his nephew to arrest some gangsters on the street regularly and send them to prison. However, in the past two months, he still found nothing about him. whereabouts."
"What do you mean, brother?"
"My father and my nephew searched the capital but couldn't find him, so they thought for a while whether Ling Yang would leave the capital privately and come to Jinling to join my uncle. Because the matter was too serious, my father did not dare to write a letter, so he asked my nephew to borrow the letter. Come to Jinling in person for the reason of congratulations."
Liu Zhi'an shook his head with an ugly expression: "This child has not taken refuge with me. If you hadn't come here today, I wouldn't even know that he had left the capital."
"Uncle, from what you have seen, where will Ling Yang go? He is a sentenced prisoner with basic identity documents. It is impossible to move around in the Dalong Dynasty. Could he have gone to Suzhou?"
Liu Zhi'an said firmly: "No, although he grew up in Suzhou since childhood, because of your third uncle, the Ling family has almost no foundation in Suzhou. The Ling family is afraid of being implicated by your third uncle. He was separated, and as you said, it was difficult for him to enter the city without documents proving his identity."
"What should we do? My father also laments every day."
Liu Zhi'an stood up and looked outside seriously: "This child is so ignorant. If Wei Gou's people find him, he will definitely bring disaster to your Song family and the Liu family. Although eight years have passed, it will be minimal." , but I’m just afraid of what might happen.”
"My father is also worried about this. Although the incident with the third uncle has been going on for a long time, Prime Minister Wei has always known about the relationship between my father and the third uncle. The fact is that for my father, although he has the protection of Prince Duan, collusion between ministers and the prince is not a long-term solution."
"What does your father want to do?"
"The third brother went to the capital to befriend the prince. Prime Minister Wei and the prince have never dealt with each other, and Prime Minister Wei intends to support His Highness Prince Qing to replace the prince. If the third brother befriends the prince, he will join forces with Prince Tong Xiang and Prince Duan to overthrow Prime Minister Wei in one fell swoop."
Liu Zhi'an smacked his lips: "Qing'er, do you know why Prime Minister Wei is so favored, forming cliques for personal gain, and letting others do what he wants but never fails?"
Song Qing was confused: "Isn't it true that Prime Minister Wei knows how to please His Majesty?"
"No, although Prime Minister Wei is a treacherous minister, he is also a capable minister. What's more important is that he has no heirs. Do you understand?"
"Zhi'er still doesn't understand. What does this have to do with whether Prime Minister Wei has any heirs?"
Liu Mingzhi suddenly said: "Without heirs, even if he has power over the whole government, he will not be afraid of the emperor. Because he has no heirs, he will not rebel at all because there is no need."
Song Qing was stunned that such a situation still existed. Liu Zhi'an looked at Liu Mingzhi with satisfaction and hit the nail on the head.
Liu Zhian said calmly: "There are some things that the government cannot investigate, and they even dare not investigate for fear of offending Wei Yong, but Brother Liu Ye dares to investigate. In the past few years, my uncle has spent a lot of money to investigate everything about Wei Gou. It turns out that Wei Gou When I was young, I actually seduced my sister-in-law and her adultery was exposed, and her penis was injured by her elder brother. Although the news of this matter was blocked, as long as the bargaining chip of betrayal is big enough, nothing is impossible."
"I didn't expect that Prime Minister Wei would have such a family scandal!"
"Wei Gou was injured because he seduced his sister-in-law. Naturally, he could not have any heirs. But the more important thing is that the child his sister-in-law gave birth to was actually Wei Gou's seed. Although it was just a rumor, Wei Gou already regarded his nephew as his son. He killed his only bloodline, your third uncle was just too upright to kill his only bloodline, so..."
"Second uncle, are these things true? Is there any evidence?"
"You can't believe it all or not."
