Flower Fairy's Tribulation

Chapter 749 Bribing Li Peide

Everyone took advantage of the night to return to Fangyuan Inn on Longjiang Street in Fuyu City. Rumors about the assassination that took place at Feihexian Cemetery in the morning made Qi Xuan extremely happy.

Hua Yueying released the spirit flower and used the Blue-haired Orangutan Mental Skill Pill to explore the nearby fifth prison. Cai Fei's family was still nestled in the cell. There was indeed a blond and blue-eyed young man in his 20s among the prisoners, with a similar face. Jiang Huihuang back then was quite similar. He must be the Jiang Chenyu that He Yuli mentioned.

Jiang Chenyu was mixed with a dozen prisoners in a large cell, huddled in a pile of straw in the corner, his head lowered and never communicating with the inmates, acting very low-key.

Hua Yueying told everyone about Jiang Chenyu's situation. Jiang Youyou is Jiang Chenyu's biological aunt. The most worrying person is her. She frowned and paced back and forth in the room with a cold and beautiful face. On the verge of tears, Qiu Sha offered her advice: "Princess, please allow me to fight in and rescue them tonight, so as not to have a long night and many dreams..."

Jiang Youyou shook her head and said: "Sister Qiu Sha, what I can't figure out is how the fifth brother and the woman named Su - are all the beauties born in Wu Shengguo dead?"

Qiu Sha said: "Fate is a wonderful thing, it's hard to say - Princess, forget it, even if the woman's surname is Su, she is still a woman of the Jiang family, and her children are also descendants of the Jiang family -"

Jiang Youyou shook her head and said stubbornly: "The country is ruined and the family is destroyed. I will never forgive the person named Su!"

Qiu Sha lowered his head and thought silently. Gu Li gave Lin Chenzhong a gentle push. Lin Chenzhong hurriedly tried to persuade her: "Yuyou, forget it. The child is innocent. He has no chance to choose his parents and origin. I know you are actually very worried - "

Jiang Youyou sighed, looked at Hua Yueying, and asked, "Auntie, what do you think?"

Hua Yueying said: "It's fate, Jiang Chenyu shouldn't bear the hatred of the Jiangsu family. Besides, besides Jiang Huiteng, does the person named Jiang have any other direct royal bloodline? - Youyou, can you just sit back and watch as your father and brother have no successor? Are you going to stop offering sacrifices?"

Jiang Youyou shed tears and was speechless.

Hua Yueying added: "We should stick to the original plan and try bribing Li Peide first to try to solve the problem with money. If it is not feasible, how about using force to solve it?"

Jiang Youyou said bitterly: "But I don't want to see anyone who has anything to do with someone named Su - eldest sister, what do you think?"

He Yiyun said: "You can not see him for the time being, but it is best for us to help him get out of the tiger's mouth. The remaining grievances can be slowly resolved later!"

Jiang Youyou was silent, and Hua Yueying hurriedly said: "Want to go to Li Peide's house to try tonight?"

Everyone agreed. Lin Chenzhong and Hua Yueying disguised themselves with rubber masks. Qiu Sha took advantage of Jiang Youyou's expression to soften and gave the Hualin people a huge sum of money as funding. Jiang Youyou turned a blind eye.

Under the guidance of Qi Xuan, Hua Lin and others went to Mayor Li Peide's residence to ask for an audience. Qi Xuan returned to Fangyuan Inn.

Lin Chenzhong and Hua Yueying falsely claimed to be the envoys of Xu Kun, the deputy commander of the 67th Division. Military personnel carried an aura that could not be ignored wherever they went. Li Peide's housekeeper hurriedly went to report, and soon the two of Hua Lin were led to the living room.

Things have not gone well recently, and the anxious Li Peide sat dejectedly in the spacious living room and sighed. Seeing Hua Lin and his wife come in, he hurriedly stood up to greet them. The guests and hosts sat down and exchanged a few words. Lin Chenzhong said to Li Peide straight to the point: "Li Shi. Commander, Deputy Commander Xu has something important to discuss..."

Lin Chenzhong glanced at the butler and servants who were standing by. Li Peide knowingly sent the rest of the crowd away and talked behind closed doors.

Li Peide asked: "How are you doing, Deputy Master Xu?"

Lin Chenzhong said: "The military affairs are busy and we work all day long, and we don't get a moment of peace..."

Li Peide sighed and said: "That's right. Banditry has been rampant recently, causing a lot of trouble and making people upset... Where is Deputy Master Xu doing his business now?"

Lin Chenzhong didn't know where Xu Kun was. He pretended to be in trouble and said: "The task of suppressing bandits has been very heavy recently. Deputy Commander Xu personally led the team into the mountains... It's hard to say where exactly he went. We are all at home... But Please forgive me, Mayor Li..."

Li Peide nodded and said, "I shouldn't have asked about military aircraft matters - I just don't know what advice Deputy Commander Xu sent the envoy here."

Lin Chenzhong said: "Don't take advice seriously - Mayor Li, let me get straight to the point -" He winked at Hua Yueying, who released a large stack of anonymous bank cards from the bracelet bag and piled them directly on Li Peide. On the mahogany coffee table in front of him, he said: "Mayor Li, this is 10 gold coins. It's a small thing, please accept it!"

Li Peide's expression changed drastically, and he stood up quickly and said, "No reward for no merit, what does this mean, brother Xu Kun?"

Lin Chenzhong cupped his hands and said: "Mayor Li, this is Deputy Master Xu's wish. In order to ask Mayor Li to be kind and generous, help with a small matter-"

Li Peide stared at Lin Chenzhong and asked: "Since it is a trivial matter, Brother Xu Kun can just say a word, why use money? Isn't this looking down on me, Mr. Li?"

Lin Chenzhong stood up and explained calmly: "Mayor Li, don't get me wrong. Thanks to the friendship between Mr. Xu and the mayor, there was no need for money. This money was not given to the mayor, but to ask the mayor to help take care of his brothers." use--"

Li Peide nodded and looked at the pile of bank cards with greedy green eyes. He asked, "What is it? Is it worth Brother Xu Kun's expense?"

Lin Chenzhong said: "The family of Cai Fei, the owner of Cai Ji Seasoning Company in Fuyu City, was framed and imprisoned for no reason. Now they are detained in the No. [-] Longjiang Street Prison. Mr. Xu has always been concerned about this matter, and Mr. Xu has repeatedly vouched for Cai Fei's family." The Fei family are definitely not collaborators, so Mayor Li must know about this?"

Li Peide nodded and said, "It turns out it's for Cai Fei. I know this. If Xu Kun hadn't protected him, Boss Cai would not have been able to save his nine lives!"

Lin Chenzhong nodded.

Li Peide asked in confusion: "I'm very curious, what is the relationship between brother Xu Kun and Cai Fei's family? Why did they do everything possible to protect him?"

Lin Chenzhong and Hua Yueying were also confused about the relationship between Xu Kun and Cai Fei. He said calmly: "To be honest, we don't know. We just ordered the teacher to handle this matter. The inside story - it's hard to tell. !”

Xu Kun always tried to protect Cai Fei from death, and even threatened his colleague Fu De not to go too far. Li Peide knew these things. Now that Xu Kun is willing to pay a huge sum of money to help him escape danger, Li Peide can imagine that the relationship between Xu Kun and Cai Fei must be extraordinary. He nodded and said, "It's understandable! But Cai Fei's case was personally supervised by Fu De, the leader of the 328th Regiment, so it's not easy to handle-"

Lin Chenzhong said: "The battle report said that Captain Fu De was unfortunately assassinated this morning. Is it true?"

Li Peide nodded and said, "It's true. Brother Xu Kun has great eyes and hands. He is hundreds of miles away. How can he know about Fuyu City in less than a day?"

Lin Chenzhong said nonsense: "Military intelligence is advancing rapidly. Not to mention that Commander Xu has heard about it, the briefing on the assassination of Captain Fu De is probably already in the office of Commander Gao in Songling City, thousands of miles away! Maybe Gao Gao The military commander is getting angry! Is the banditry in Fuyu City extremely rampant?"

As the parent official of the party in charge, Li Peide was unable to distance himself from the rampant banditry. The key was that Fu De died in front of him, but he stared at nothing.

Li Peide's forehead was sweating, and he nodded and said: "That's also possible. After all, the military uses flying elf warriors to deliver messages, and it's easy to travel thousands of miles! Hey, I'm unlucky, the assassination of Captain Fu De happened right under my nose. , but I am helpless! The gangsters are really hateful!"

Lin Chenzhong said: "It is difficult to prevent thieves from raiding, so what does it have to do with the mayor? Our division commander is not only saddened and angry about the assassination of Captain Fu De, but also wants to solve Cai Fei's backlog of unsolved cases as soon as possible. Taking this opportunity, I would like to ask Mr. Li I'm proud to let Cai Fei's family go."

Li Peide looked troubled and said: "It's not that I don't want to help, it's just that Cai Fei offended Fu De, so it's not good for me to interfere, right?"

Lin Chenzhong said: "Mayor Li, let's open the skylight and speak frankly. If Cai Fei hadn't offended Captain Fu De, he wouldn't have been framed and sent to jail. We know it well, right?"

Li Peide nodded slightly.

Lin Chenzhong added: "Except for Fu De, Cai Fei's family has no grievances against anyone else. Now that Fu De has been unfortunately killed, no one is paying attention to Boss Cai. The key is that there is no conclusive evidence that Cai Fei has violated laws and disciplines and was detained in vain." For more than a year, there is really no reason to continue to detain them. Mayor Li’s release of Cai Fei’s family at this time is actually to bring order to the chaos and restore Cai Fei’s family’s innocence. This is a just act. Justice is in the heart of the people. No one will have any objection. !”

Li Peide lowered his head in embarrassment and thought for a while and said: "With my authority, I can release him, but Captain Fu De was unfortunately killed, and his nephew Fu Yi and nephew Qin Shi were also killed one after another. Something strange happened and the murderer has not been brought to justice. If at this time, I rashly released Boss Cai's family, who had a problem with them, for fear that the Fu family and the Qin family would complain!"

Hua Yueying said: "Mayor Li is worry-free. Mr. Xu has told me that as long as you quietly let Cai Fei's family go, we have a way to let Cai Fei's family fly away and completely disappear from Fuyu City. As long as they don't appear to be an eyesore." , who will pay attention to these things about old millet and rotten rice?"

Li Peide sat down and lowered his head in silence. Hua Yueying pushed the bank card in front of Li Peide and said: "Mayor Li, this is what Mr. Xu specially asked us to ask you for. Can you always give me face? Mr. Xu said it. , if this thing is done, he will be very grateful!"

Li Peide raised his head and glanced at his bank card, feeling conflicted in his heart. Hua Yueying rolled her eyes and said, "The teacher also said that Captain Fu De was assassinated and the 328th Regiment was leaderless. Mayor Li is the best candidate to replace Captain Fu De. He is going to ask Commander Xie Changting Say hello and recommend to the military department that Mayor Li be concurrently the commander of the 328th Regiment and city defense commander, and garrison Fufu City on the spot!"

The reason why Fu De dominates the city of Fu De is because he has military power. Even he, the mayor, has to give him face and let him do whatever he wants. If he can also serve as the commander of the 328th Regiment, control military power, and combine military and political power, then he will be Fu De. The city became a veritable native emperor, which was Li Peide's dream.

When Li Peide heard this, he stood up excitedly and looked at Hua Yueying and Lin Chenzhong in confusion, as if he couldn't believe his ears.

Lin Chenzhong almost laughed out loud when he heard Hua Yueying's nonsense about drawing a cake for Li Peide, but looking at Li Peide's expression, he knew that Hua Yueying had poked his weak point wittily. He nodded to Li Peide pretending to be profound and said: "Mayor Li, Commander Xu repeatedly warned that this matter must be kept low-key and as low as possible: after all, many people are eyeing the lucrative position of leader of the 328th Regiment!"

Li Peide nodded excitedly, sat down slowly, looked at the pile of bank cards, gritted his teeth and said to Lin Chenzhong: "Brother, please reply to Brother Xu Kun, I will take care of this matter. Within a few days, Boss Cai and his family will Must be released!"

Just as Lin Chenzhong was about to say yes, Hua Yueying shook her head and said, "Mayor Li, what Master Xu means is to take advantage of the assassination of Captain Fu De and no one will pay attention to Cai Fei's trivial matters. Let us take him away tomorrow morning!"

Li Peide was stunned for a moment and said, "Tomorrow morning? Is it too urgent?"

Lin Chenzhong braced himself and agreed: "This matter cannot be delayed, as delay will lead to changes, and now is a God-given opportunity. I believe Mayor Li can also see it!"

Li Peide gritted his teeth and said: "Okay! We will definitely let Cai Fei's family out of the fifth prison tomorrow morning. You must promise to get them away immediately and stop causing trouble in Fuyu City, so as not to attract other people's attention!"

Lin Chenzhong vowed: "No problem!"

Hua Yueying released a handful of bank cards from the pearl bracelet pouch, picked out [-] gold coins and piled them in front of Li Peide, and said calmly: "Mayor Li, I have a small thing to ask for. I am also detained in the fifth prison. There is a young man with blond hair and blue eyes named Ji Zhou, who is the minion that Captain Fu De captured from Crouching Tiger Yamada Shin. Master Xu Kun wants to ask the mayor for help and let him go!"

Li Peide said nervously and doubtfully: "Huh? Ji Zhou? Have you never heard that this young man is the bandit from Crouching Tiger Mountain who was captured with Ji Song?"

Lin Chenzhong said calmly: "It is true that he was captured from Crouching Tiger Yamada Shin, and he was indeed captured together with the bandit leader Ji Song, but there is something hidden here!"

Li Peide asked doubtfully: "What's the secret?"

Hua Yueying said: "Although this Ji Zhou has the same surname as the bandit leader Ji Song, there are thousands of people with the surname Ji in the world. It's just a coincidence. They are not relatives - for example, the most common surname in the world is Li, which accounts for 5% of the population. It cannot be said that the surname in the world is Are all the people named Li relatives of Mayor Li?!"

Li Peide could only nod.

Hua Yueying added: "This Ji Zhou has nothing to do with Ji Song, but he is a distant relative of Mr. Xu. Because he had a disagreement with his family and ran away in anger, he did not want to be robbed by Crouching Tiger Yamada Shin and others and was forced to become a minion..."

Lin Chenzhong went on to compile: "After Ji Zhou went missing, his family members were anxious and asked everywhere but found no news. Later, Ji Zhou was imprisoned in the No. [-] Longjiang Street Prison. Some of the jailers recognized him as Mr. Xu who was missing from his home. He was a relative, so we reported to Mr. Xu and we found out that he was behind bars. Although Mr. Xu was angry with him, he was a relative and had no choice but to come and beg the mayor for help!"

Li Peide nodded and said: "Oh! So that's it. I'm still wondering how brother Xu Kun knew the gangsters in Crouching Tiger Mountain! Since it was a member of his own family who accidentally made a mistake, it's excusable. Don't worry, I promise to let him know tomorrow morning. Acquitted, you wait to receive someone!"

Lin Chenzhong said calmly: "The division commander said that young people who do not know the severity and cause trouble must be punished. When he goes back, he will be beaten with at least thirty military sticks and imprisoned for half a year!"

Li Peide smiled and said: "Mr. Xu, there is no need to be angry. These young people nowadays have such bad tempers that they often run away from home. It is not new! Every time you learn a lesson, you will gain wisdom. With this lesson, I believe he will re-examine his behavior!"

Lin Chenzhong blinked and said, "Thanks to Mayor Li's magnanimity, otherwise this kid would have suffered a lot! Mr. Xu repeatedly asked me to reassure Mayor Li. A gentleman's words are hard to follow, and he will never break his word!"

Li Peide beamed.

Hua Lin and the two immediately said goodbye and left. Li Peide couldn't bear to stay and sent the two to the door with a bright smile, agreeing to pick them up at the gate of the Fifth Prison on Longjiang Street at eight o'clock tomorrow morning.

It was already dark after leaving Fu De's house, the sky was filled with stars, and there were few people walking on the street.

The two of them breathed a long sigh of relief. It was a rare opportunity to chat alone. Hua Yueying asked Lin Chenzhong: "Zhong, you and the big-eyed thief were procrastinating outside Feihexian Cemetery for so long today. What were you talking about?"

Lin Chenzhong was stunned for a moment, and then thought: Since Yueying knew that he was delayed on the road, he must have used the Blue-haired Orangutan Spirit Skill Pill to detect the situation between the two of them at that time. Needless to say, he naturally heard the content of his pick-up with girls.

Lin Chenzhong smiled and said: "Since you know, why are you asking? I am following your instructions to find a way to keep the twins..."

Hua Yueying smiled and poked his forehead, and said: "You, you got the advantage and acted like a good boy, so I said you can't bear to part with their sisters, right? How many men dream of getting a pair of beautiful twins as lovers? Ah Zhong can't do it either. Free from vulgarity!”

Lin Chenzhong smiled playfully and held Hua Yueying in his arms, kissed her forehead and said, "I can't bear to leave you even more!"

Hua Yueying pushed him away and said, "I hate it, there are so many people coming and going on the street - be honest!"

Lin Chenzhong looked around and said, "Where is there anyone? There's not even a shadow of a ghost -" As he spoke, he lightly slapped Hua Yueying's buttocks.

Hua Yueying whispered: "It's annoying - you think no one sees or hears, don't you know that walls have ears? Forget it, let's not talk about you and Yiyun, it's so embarrassing -"

Returning to Fangyuan Inn and reporting the situation to everyone, He Yiyun said: "Money can make all the difference. What Liu Zitan and the others couldn't do with all their strength was easily accomplished with a few dollars! Liu Zitan is such a smart person, Why didn’t you think of spending money to clear the road?”

Tan Jingshuang said: "Yueying fell in love with him and promised Li Peide an offer that he couldn't refuse. Plus, a huge sum of money fell from the sky. It's inevitable that he won't be able to withstand the temptation!"

Lin Chenzhong said: "Looking at the world, 10,000+ gold coins is not a small amount. Except for the extremely wealthy merchants and the princess Youyou who sits on the Jinshan Mountain, few people can withstand the temptation of this amount of money! You must know that Seven Star College back then In times of difficulty, the annual expenditure is only about 5000 gold coins. These 13 gold coins are enough for their school to survive for 20 years! Li Peide is the mayor and holds a high position of power. It is inevitable to feel dizzy when seeing so much money——"

Tan Shuiying said: "If people die for money, there must be brave men under heavy rewards. This is axiom!"

Hua Yueying said: "In addition, we used Xu Kun's famous name and talent to trick Li Peide around - I'm sorry for Xu Kun. In the future, if Li Peide can't concurrently serve as the leader of the 328th Regiment, he will inevitably have trouble with Xu Kun who is kept in the dark!"

Gu Li said: "No matter how many of them there are, most of the military and political officials in the Holy Spirit Empire are terrible, let them bite the bullet!"
