He hated it!
The Lin family had already lost their heir, but the person who had caused it was not punished. Lin Fu felt depressed.
If that Courtesan Belle had been severely punished, he wouldn’t have felt so bad.
Unexpectedly, at the critical moment, County Magistrate Zhang cowered. Not only did he cower, but he also cowered completely. He even drew a clear line with him.
This situation made his heart turn ashen. When he remembered that his family was already dead, his heart became even more complicated.
“I give you money every month, but you treat me like this.”
“Other people take money to do things, but you forget about it after taking money!”
Lin Fu gritted his teeth. His eyes were red, and his old face was filled with endless anger.
The more he thought about it, the more uncomfortable he felt.
It was as if the fire was about to rush out of his body, and he could not control
it at all.
He was old and his body was not in good condition. Lin Fu was angry and felt weak all over.
At this moment, there was a knock on the door.
“Don’t come in! Do you treat my words as farts?” Lin Fu shouted.
No one dared to approach his courtyard, but at this moment, the door was pushed open and a masked man walked in.
“Who are you?”
No matter how angry he was, Lin Fu felt that something was wrong. Why would a masked stranger come in?
He returned to normal, his eyes filled with caution.
“Old Master Lin is very angry…” Other than his hands, only his eyes could be seen. He lowered his voice and pretended to be hoarse.
“What do you mean? This is the Lin Manor.” Lin Fu was experienced in the business world. He had encountered this situation before, so he managed to maintain his composure.
“I came to see if you have any thoughts of avenging your son. “Xu Bai said indifferently.
Revenge?
Lin Fu stood up instantly.
Did he want revenge?
Yes!
Even in his dreams, he thought,
Hearing this word, no matter how well he pretended, he could not help but react.
“If you have something to say, just say it. What do you mean? What revenge?” Lin Fu forced himself to remain calm, but he still couldn’t hide his emotions.
“Your only son is dead, but you can’t avenge him. Do you feel aggrieved?”Xu Bai said slowly.
Lin Fu did not say anything.
He looked straight at Xu Bai. No one knew what he was thinking.
“In the end, the problem lies with County Magistrate Zhang. If he had helped you, how could you have ended up like this?”Xu Bai said.
Lin Fu still didn’t say anything, but from Xu Bai’s perspective, Lin Fu’s hands were clenched tightly.
“There is no heir in the family. So what if you have a huge family fortune? His son was dead, and as a father, he couldn’t avenge him. What kind of father was this?”Xu Bai continued.
At this moment, Lin Fu finally reacted.
“Do you think I don’t want revenge? Sheng County was the county town of County Magistrate Zhang alone. The mountains were high and the emperor was far away. No one could deal with him.”
Of course, he wanted to take revenge, but he was held back by County Magistrate Zhang. How could he take revenge?
“People think of ways. As long as you want to do it, there will be a way.”Xu Bai said with a smile.
‘What is it?” Lin Fu asked.
At this point, he had already fallen into Xu Bai’s trap.
“As long as you can take down Zhang, with your Lin family’s power, it’s easy to kill a prostitute before the next county magistrate arrives. “Xu Bai said slowly. Lin Fu was stunned for a moment, and then his heart was in turmoil.
If County Magistrate Zhang heard this, he would be finished.
He had never even thought of this method because in his inherent thinking, the people would not fight with the officials.
However, after Xu Bai’s reminder, it was like a seed planted in the soil that gradually sprouted after being watered by rain.
It can’t go away, and it can’t be scattered.
Lin Fu swallowed hard and asked subconsciously, “How can I…” Take him down?”
The moment he asked, he immediately shut up.
“You must know the amount of money you’ve bribed better than anyone else. If this amount is made public, then no matter how capable he is, he won’t be able to reverse the situation. “Xu Bai placed his hand on the long saber and said slowly.
“You’re harming the Lin family. If something happens to the person who took the bribe, the person who bribed won’t have a good time either. “Lin Fu said.
Although he said that, the feasibility of this plan had already appeared in his mind.
Sheng County was located in a remote area. It was a small county town. In Sheng County, County Magistrate Zhang could indeed cover the sky with one hand.
This plan was indeed good. Once the matter of County Magistrate Zhang taking bribes was exposed, the Great Chu State would definitely punish him severely.
A small county magistrate was gone.
Great Chu just develop period if this thing is exposed, will lead to the people’s hearts not stable, is to the emperor will never be soft.
Even without this small county magistrate, the emperor could still have the effect of killing the chicken to warn the monkeys.
But… There was an important premise to this, and that was that the person who bribed him would also be severely punished.
Otherwise, why was County Magistrate Zhang so fearless?
Because everyone was tied to the same rope, if something happened, everyone would get into trouble together.
Lin Fu had to worry about the Lin family. If he really did this, it would definitely affect him.
“Do you still not understand what I mean? Everything has a reason. If you use your son’s death as an excuse to do this, you will definitely be finished. “Xu Bai shook his head.
Change the method?
Lin Fu felt that his brain wasn’t enough.
No matter what method he used, he was bribing them.
Could he escape?
“Think about it carefully. If a person who has been bullied and forced to bribe really can’t take it anymore and then sue County Magistrate Zhang, you will instead become a person who doesn’t fear power. “Xu Bai said straightforwardly.
As soon as he said this, the room fell silent.
Lin Fu seemed to be thinking about the feasibility of the matter. After a while, he asked, “Who are you?’”‘
Now, he finally brought up the most important question.
“I have a grudge with County Magistrate Zhang. As for what it is, you don’t have to ask. If I wanted to deal with you, I would have done it long ago.”Xu Bai said.
He gave himself a reason. Otherwise, he would not be able to persuade this old fellow.
“Good!” Lin Fu finally made a decision.” I have an account book at home. I remember it clearly. When the time comes, I’ll bring it to the capital and make him suffer. ‘”‘
He had already made up his mind. When he thought about how he could not even take revenge after his son died, and how he had no descendants, he could not help but feel angry.
In this day and age, those who were arrogant were afraid of death.
Lin Fu thought.
Xu Bai thought that Lin Fu could only write it down, but he didn’t expect there to be a ledger.
A debt?
Even better!
“Just say that your son’s death stirred up your thoughts of resistance, so you decided to announce this matter. That way, you’ll be fine. Of course, there’s still a process in between.”Xu Bai extended his index finger.
“What process?” Lin Fu asked..
