Zhao Qingyun lives in a courtyard two blocks away from the governor's office. Today was supposed to be a working day, but Zhao Qingyun didn't go to work. Instead, he was locked in his room and rummaged around.
On the table behind him, there were boxes of various jewelry, two boxes of neat gold bars and some bills and cash from foreign banks. Zhao Qingyun frowned and held two long boxes in his arms. His hands kept turning in the cabinet.
"Bang bang." there were two knocks outside the door. Zhao Qingyun was shocked and his hand shook. The box in his hand almost fell to the ground.
He was not angry and said, "who! I have said that I have something to do, and I can't see anyone!"
The man outside the door didn't answer, but tapped twice again.
Zhao Qingyun was a little angry. He walked to the table with the box in his hand and put it down. He said angrily, "who!"
The door was gently pushed open from the outside. Zhao Qingyun was stunned and suddenly reacted. After he entered the house, he bolted the door from the inside? How did this door open?!
Before he could figure it out, the door had been completely opened, and two people stood at the door.
Two women, one in his early thirties and the other in his late twenties. The only thing in common is that the two women are very beautiful. Even if he is a person of status in the southwest, he rarely sees such a beautiful woman.
"You... Who are you? How did you get in?" because it was two women, Zhao Qingyun relaxed some vigilance and just frowned at the two men.
The two women who suddenly patronize the Zhao family are naturally no other than lengsa and Shang Feiyun.
Lengsa glanced at the table behind Zhao Qingyun and said with a smile, "Mr. Zhao, is this going to run?"
Zhao Qingyun's face changed slightly and moved his body without trace to block their sight. Lengsa and Shang Fei looked at each other and couldn't help smiling.
Zhao Qingyun obviously found that his move was very funny. He no longer covered it. He looked at them righteously and angrily, "who are you? You shouldn't be the guests of the Zhao family? How dare you break into here and don't want to live?"
Lengsa apologized, "please forgive me for coming uninvited."
Zhao Qingyun asked, "who are you?"
Leng SA said in a warm voice, "my surname is Leng, Leng SA." seeing that Zhao Qingyun didn't seem to have any reaction, he thought it might be because he didn't have any fame, so he added, "my husband's surname is Fu."
"What?! you!" Zhao Qingyun's face suddenly changed, but the next moment he resolutely shut his mouth, because he saw lengsa playing with a small pistol in his hand, and the muzzle of the gun was right at himself.
He had heard of the master's wife's power. Although he was a big man, he didn't dare to say that he could beat the one in front of him.
Leng SA smiled and said, "I like people who know and know. Mr. Zhao doesn't have to be afraid. I don't love killing."
Zhao Qingyun's face was stiff and didn't answer. Lengsa and Shang Feiyun had stepped into the room and closed the door. Seeing this, Zhao Qingyun can only complain secretly in his heart. As soon as the door is closed, unless something happens, he is calling the sky and should not call the earth. But if something really happened, he didn't dare to bet whether lengsa would kill him and run away.
After taking a deep breath, Zhao Qingyun could only accompany him with a smile, "Madam Fu Shao, I don't know what you mean?"
Lengsa went to the table, his gun gently crossed over the pile of jewelry and gold bars on the table, and asked directly, "where did Sun Liang get those gold bars?"
Zhao Qingyun's eyelids jumped and hurriedly said, "I... I don't know."
Lengsa looked at him in surprise. "Don't know? You have covered up for him bitterly for two months. Now you say you don't know? Look back... How do you explain?" before Zhao Qingyun answered, lengsa nodded and looked like a sudden realization, "Oh, you're going to run away. It seems that you don't intend to explain. Let me see... Well, my 100000 yuan bill, 40 gold bars and these jewelry can add up to 200000 or 300000 yuan?"
Zhao Qingyun didn't dare to speak. Lengsa turned his head and looked at him, "but now you can't run away. Don't you explain?"
Zhao Qingyun said bitterly, "Madam Fu, I really don't know anything. What do you want me to explain?"
Leng SA said, "I don't care. The gold flows out of your hands. I can't find it... So I have to hand you over to the governor and the cabinet. Besides you, you have three sons and seven or eight grandchildren? The youngest is still in infancy. What do you want them to do in the future? Poor."
Zhao Qingyun's face was a little blue. He looked up and looked at lengsa. "Madam Fu, I really don't know. Even if you force me to death, I can't help it."
Lengsa picked up a heavy gold bar from the box and weighed it in his hand. Then he spread it in his palm and looked at it with a smile, "Pengcheng official casting?"
Seeing Zhao Qingyun's iron face, Leng SA didn't insist, "since you don't know, come with us. Maybe you'll know when you think about it later. Just don't know what Sun Liang would think if you disappeared? How would he entertain your family? Ah, I remember. Your parents are sun Liang's uncle and aunt. I shouldn't care about you?"
Zhao Qingyun's face became more and more ugly. Lengsa continued, "I heard that Sun Liang killed sun rang two days ago?"
Shang Feiyun nodded and said with a smile, "isn't it? Sun rang is still sun dujun's cousin. Sun dujun is really determined to kill." even his cousin said to kill, and which onion is his cousin?
Zhao Qingyun clenched his teeth and said, "Madam Fu, don't deceive people too much!"
Leng SA snorted and said in surprise, "I deceive people too much? Mr. Zhao, do you think you can't do too much to help Sun Liang empty the gold in the financial inventory of the whole southwest? Or do you think Sun Liang can make a comeback? Mr. Zhao plans to be a loyal minister who bows and dies?"
Shang Feiyun chuckled and said, "Mr. Zhao, I advise you not to think too much. It's no use delaying time. Since we can come in, we can naturally guarantee to leave with you. Sun Liang's situation is gone. If you can run away, it's all right. Since it has fallen into our hands, you'd better think more about yourself?"
Zhao Qingyun looked at Shang Feiyun and lengsa standing at the table. The color of struggle flashed in his eyes.
Lengsa was not in a hurry. He simply sat down at the table, waiting for him to make a decision slowly.
Time passed slowly, one minute, ten minutes, half an hour, and no one came near the room to greet.
Sometimes he clearly heard voices outside, but soon the people left again. He didn't seem to know that there were three people in the room at this time.
Forty minutes, fifty minutes
Lengsa frowned slightly and looked down at the watch on her wrist.
It was the beginning of February and the temperature was still a little low. However, beads of sweat had appeared on Zhao Qingyun's face. His back, still wearing a short jacket, had been soaked with sweat.
As lengsa began to look at his watch, he seemed to feel that he could hear the sound of the watch moving. So his face became more and more pale, and the whole person was a little unstable.
"It's been an hour..." cold, some sighed, put down the hand with the watch, raised his head and looked at Zhao Qingyun, "Mr. Zhao, you..."
Zhao Qingyun gave a pep talk and suddenly said, "I... I said..."
Lengsa slightly raised her eyebrows, and a faint smile came up on her lips, "please."
Zhao Qingyun seemed to have lost his strength. He sat in a chair and leaned back, "I really don't know... I don't know where the gold bars were moved by Sun Liang. However, I helped when the gold bars were transported out of the warehouse. I... Sun Liang asked me to transport the gold bars outside the city in batches and give them to his guard captain. I was afraid of attracting people's attention, so I sent them all five times. I can tell you where, but what happened to the gold bars in the back I really don't know where it was transported. "
Leng SA said with a smile, "if it's Mr. Zhao, can you rest assured that irrelevant people will deal with such a large batch of gold?"
Zhao Qingyun was silent and said coldly, "it seems that the captain of the guard has the trust of Sun Liang?"
Zhao Qingyun quickly nodded and said, "yes, he is also one of Sun Liang's adjutants. He is the person Sun Liang trusts most. He trusts much more than our cousins. Sun Liang will let him do whatever mess he has. That's all I know. I really don't know anything else."
Lengsa nodded, "thank you for telling Mr. Zhao. Recently, please stay at home and don't run around."
Zhao Qingyun's face was stiff. He wanted to run away.
The reason why he chose to run now is that if it was too early, Sun Liang would not let him go. If it was too late, the coalition forces really besieged Pengcheng and couldn't run if they wanted to.
Now Sun Liang has no time to care about them. It's a good time. I'm afraid he's not the only one who thinks so.
It seemed that after reading Zhao Qingyun's mind, lengsa said, "Mr. Zhao, think it over. If I can successfully recover the gold, the supervisor and the cabinet military headquarters, Mr. Zhao will be meritorious and everything will be easy to say. But if you run away, you will be a fugitive who has followed Sun Liang's treason all your life. In addition to fleeing abroad, you can only find a place in the countryside to live in anonymity. At least your Zhao family will not be able to get out for decades."
"I......" Zhao Qingyun looked at her suspiciously and said, "you really won't pursue me?"
Leng SA said with a smile, "it depends on what you have done. If there is nothing shameful, you should always be appropriately rewarded for saving such a big loss for the country."
Hearing the speech, Zhao Qingyun was obviously relieved and hesitated for a moment before he said to lengsa, "OK, I can cooperate with you, but after the Fu family took Pengcheng, we must ensure the safety of my family, and we can't hold me accountable for my relationship with the sun family. Don't worry, I'm a civil servant and haven't done anything immoral." He was greedy for some money, and he didn't dare to do too much under the pressure of Sun Liang. As long as the Fu family didn't sit down, he wouldn't be guilty to death.
Think of his family of dozens of people, old and small, and look at the money at the table in front of him. Zhao Qingyun can only accept his life.
The Fu family has come to the door. Can he really escape even if he wants to escape?
Lengsa nodded with satisfaction, "very good, happy cooperation?"
Zhao Qingyun breathed a sigh of relief. Since he had made up his mind, many things were easier to say, "I know something about Sun Liang's adjutant..."
Soon lengsa and Shang Feiyun left. Watching the two people go out, Zhao Qingyun finally took a breath and collapsed in his chair.
Some stiffly turned around and looked at the jewelry and gold bars on the table. Zhao Qingyun only felt his heart beating fast. After a while, he finally calmed down. He shouted, "come!"
Soon someone came in, "master?"
Looking at the people who usually follow him, Zhao Qingyun is also relieved. He looked at the man and asked, "where have you been?"
The humanitarian: "go back to the master. The people around the old lady just sent a message and asked the little one to go there."
Zhao Qingyun frowned. "The people around the old lady? What do you want to do?"
The man said frankly, "the old lady said that the master has lost a lot of weight these days. Let the little one look at the master and don't be too tired."
Zhao Qingyun was stunned for a while, then waved and said, "you step back."
The man looked at his master suspiciously. Somehow, he always felt that the master looked much weaker than usual.
Looking at the man respectfully retreating out, Zhao Qingyun leaned back into his chair and never sat up again.
His mother really cares about him, but even if she tells him, she will only tell his wife. After all, he is already in his forties, not a child, and never specifically call the people around him.
As for how he thought of this, he didn't want to investigate.
