The brothers who traveled westward in those years

Chapter 383 0384, The carriage that fell off the cliff

Long Fei, who left Li's house, rushed to the hinterland of Mang Mountain overnight, and brought back the man who fell off the cliff with Zhao Yun.It was preliminarily identified as Li Qiang, the eldest son of the Li family in Anxian County, and later people from the Li family came to identify him, and they were sure that the deceased was Li Qiang.

Speaking of Li Qiang, the county government's catcher provided some information to Long Fei.Most of them are about this Li family. Li Qiang is the third child of the Li family, and he has two older brothers.They both had the chance to become the next helm of the Li family, but unfortunately neither of them are favored by Mr. Li.

The old man valued Li Qiang the most, and Li Qiang really gave the old man a boost.There were a few deals that even Mr. Li couldn't handle, but Li Qiang settled them in the end.Moreover, it made the Li family more and more prosperous. The most terrible thing was that Li Qiang was kind-hearted, and he would never compete with others for anything.

If Mr. Li passed on the title of patriarch to the elder brother and the second elder brother, Li Qiang would never complain.And everyone else firmly believed that Li Qiang was definitely the least competitive person in the Li family.

There are three sons in the Li family. The eldest, Li Ling, is born with a disability and has limited mobility.Although he has great ambitions, he is unable to do what he wants.The second eldest, Li Cheng, is born with the most cunning ideas, but Li Cheng, who has the most eyes, doesn't do anything serious.He always thinks of crooked ideas every day, and he is also the most troublesome one among the three brothers of the Li family.

The youngest, Li Qiang, doesn't like to talk on weekdays, and I don't see him dealing with others.But he is extremely sensitive to numbers by nature, no matter how long the number is, he can still remember it with his photographic memory.It is also easy to convert various numbers. When he was five years old, he helped Mr. Li organize the store accounts.Going out to collect accounts with the accountant master, the mental calculation is faster than the master accountant who has been doing abacus for half his life.

Now that the identity of the deceased is known, the next step is to investigate the people who may be related to this time.Just leave this matter to the yamen servants, and Long Fei just took advantage of this time to find Li Gu.He doesn't care what Li Gu thinks, at least let Li Gu know that he is not the same as Li Xin.

If it wasn't for what Li Gu said at the birthday party, Li Ming wouldn't be so annoyed with Long Fei.At that time, Long Fei felt that he was being used as a shield, but after thinking about it later, he was not only a shield, but he was obviously used as a shield.

Li Gu had never met him before, so why would he invite him to Li Xin's birthday party.Li Xin didn't mention it to him. Can Li Xin say anything good about him to his old man?You don't need to guess what Long Fei can think of, maybe Li Gu thinks of him in his heart.

When Long Fei arrived at Li's house, he didn't see Li Gu, but the housekeeper said he had gone on a long trip.When he was leaving, he ran into Li Xin who was returning home, but asked her to stop Long Fei at the door.

Li Xin said: "It's just in time, if you don't come today, I still want to find you."

Long Fei said: "If you have something to say, hurry up, there is still a murder case in the county government staring at me."

Li Xin ordered the housekeeper to deliver tea to the living room, and then went straight to the living room regardless of whether Long Fei agreed or not.Li Xin's words were obviously only half-spoken, even if Long Fei was reluctant, he couldn't just leave.He has seen the methods of the Li family's father and daughter, and he doesn't want to be used as a shield by the family anymore.

Sitting in the living room, Li Xin looked at Long Fei who was pulling his face, and said, "Are you still angry with yesterday? How about I apologize to you here?"

"No, you should hurry up and tell me what's the matter." Long Fei hurriedly stopped Li Xin, and said helplessly: "I don't want to have anything to do with you. How many people like you has nothing to do with me, as long as your grandfather Just don't count on me anymore, both of you."

Although what he said was a bit straightforward, Long Fei originally thought so.He doesn't need to curry favor with Li Xin, no matter how beautiful she is, she will eventually be someone else's wife.He doesn't do business, and he doesn't need to please Li Gu, who is second to none in An County.From Li Xin's attitude that changed so quickly, Long Fei had guessed that she definitely wanted something from himself.

Li Xin didn't try to hold back any more, but directly confessed to Long Fei.She just came back from Li Mansion, the case that Long Fei is taking over now, the deceased is Li Ming's father.The Li family in An County was originally a big family second only to the Li family.Li Qiang's accidental death will definitely cause incalculable losses to the Li family.

Liming has two older sisters, one is Lihua and the other is Liling.They also all married into families that were waiting for each other in An County.When their father was the head of the family, no one dared to touch their status in each family.But once Li Qiang's lineage loses power in the Li family, there is no guarantee that they will not be squeezed out by other members of the in-law's family.

Liming grew up under the care of his two older sisters, that's why he developed a domineering character.In fact, his nature is not bad, and he has always been jealous of Li Xin.Although Li Xin didn't like him, she didn't really hate him either.Li Xin has long liked Liming's unscrupulousness, because Liming will only be so ingenious when dealing with her.

Although Li Xin didn't like Li Ming, he never really rejected him.The reason is simple, because she has long been used to Liming's pursuit of her.Although she didn't like it, she enjoyed the eye-catching gaze very much.The male god in the hearts of countless girls has been chasing her relentlessly, that's the point.

Li Xin hoped that Long Fei could do her a favor, or she begged Long Fei to do her this favor.I hope that Long Fei can come forward to stop the Li family's infighting, because Li Qiang's death has no leader in the Li family, the eldest Li Ling and the second eldest Li Cheng are already ready to move, and they may come forward to fight for the position of the head of the family at any time.

Old man Li is still there, but he can no longer be the master of his two sons.And in his opinion, Li Ming is the most suitable candidate to take over the Li family.Although Liming has never been in contact with business matters, he has such an excellent father. The grandfather believes that his grandson has this ability.

Furthermore, such a large family business was created by Mr. Li, and now it is most reasonable for him to decide who will run it.When Li Xin said these things, his speech speed was constantly accelerating, but he just hoped to finish the matter as quickly as possible.Because she was very afraid of having long nights and dreams, and hoped that Long Fei would come forward as soon as possible.

After Li Xin's explanation, Long Fei had a general understanding of the situation of Li's family.When leaving Li's residence, Long Fei reiterated what he said earlier.He didn't want to have anything to do with Li Xin, nor did he want to have anything to do with the Li family.From now on, everyone will go their own way, so don't make yourself uncomfortable.

The butler sent Long Fei away, and Li Xin went back to the boudoir with a dark face.Picking up the scissors on the table, Li Xin cut all the fabric on the table into strips.She cut her mouth again and again, "Cut you bastard, cut you bastard."

On the way back to the county office, Long Fei sneezed three times in a row.And it was louder than the last, and the last sneeze knocked out tears.While rubbing his nose, he whispered, "That bastard is scolding me."

After lunch, Long Fei took Zhao Yun to Li's house.Of course he was not welcomed by Liming, but Li Ling and Li Cheng were very polite to Long Fei, and even took the initiative to invite Long Fei to stay for dinner.Ask the servants to prepare the ingredients, and then accompany Long Fei for a walk in the garden in the backyard of Li Mansion.

Li Ling and Li Cheng were on the left and the right, Li Ming didn't like Long Fei, and now he was hiding as far away as possible.The case was sponsored by Long Fei, so he naturally came to Li Qiang's family to find out the situation.It stands to reason that Liming should have the most right to speak, but he doesn't like Long Fei, and he really doesn't want to say a word to Long Fei.

Of course, Long Fei didn't have the same knowledge as him, he just pondered in his heart.If Li Ming knew that he came here because of Li Xin, I don't know how Li Ming would feel.

To become the head of the Li family, it must be approved by the majority of the Li family.Not recognized by more than half of the tribe, even the old Patriarch has no right to make any decisions.

Both of them were making friends with Long Fei, so they naturally answered Long Fei's questions.Especially about the details of Li Qiang's going out this time, they both know almost the same.They only knew that Li Qiang was going out to negotiate a big business this time, and it was said that as long as this big business was negotiated, the Li family would be able to surpass the Li family in An County.

When the third brother Li Qiang told them this, neither of them believed him.They just feel that Li Qiang is bragging, they all believe that their younger brother has the ability to do great things.But it would be ridiculous to think about raising the family two levels because of a single business.

The two of them dare not even think about it, let alone do such a thing.But as far as they know, the groom who went out with Li Qiang has not returned, and the groom was not found at the scene of the crime.According to the preliminary judgment of the two brothers, the groom should have been bought by someone.

Of course, at this moment they already believed what Li Qiang told them back then.I believed that Li Qiang really brought a surprise to the Li family, but unfortunately this surprise did not become a reality, and in the end there was only surprise but no joy.

Competing for the head of the family naturally does not need the support of the government, but if they can build a good relationship with Long Fei, who is currently the highest official in An County, they will of course win a lot of impression points in front of the clan.If they can get Long Fei's support, many things can be easily handled for them.

Prove how strong a person is, or verify that a person has a certain character.The easiest way is to look at his friends and see that he is closest to those people.Birds of a feather flock together and people are divided into groups. This is the only way to verify a person's strength and ability.

Long Fei didn't let Li Ling and Li Cheng follow him all the time, because one had a bad leg and the other had too many eyes.Li Ming, who was still like a boring gourd, looked pleasing to the eye, and it was already the time when the sun was setting.Long Fei clutched his growling stomach, begging anyone of you to go and see how the dinner preparations are going.

Li Cheng ran very fast, but Li Ling, who had bad legs and feet, was not to be outdone.In the end, only Liming and Long Fei were left in the garden, and it was only at this moment that Long Fei told him why he came.

Li Xin hopes that Liming can stabilize the interior of Li's house, at least give Liming a time to breathe.Let him have enough time to get familiar with everything, let him have enough time to prepare everything.If he wants to take over the Li family, he must do so. If he doesn't have this idea, then it's right to pretend that Li Xin didn't say anything.

Of course, these words came from Li Xin's mouth, but they were just passed on to Li Ming by Long Fei.If Li Ming really wants to accept the Li family, then the first thing he has to do is to find Mr. Li.An old man is like a treasure in a family, and others are ignoring the existence of Mr. Li, but Long Fei just suggested that Mr. Li go to find his grandfather.

Long Fei's top priority is to find out the cause of Li Qiang's death, but if the Li family changes to a head other than Li Ming, he will definitely choose to turn this matter into a minor one.At that time, don't say that Long Fei has no intention, even if he wants to help him, there is nothing he can do.

This matter is not a trivial matter, and cases involving human life are never trivial.But Long Fei also needs to see Li Ming's attitude towards this matter, only in this way can Long Fei make a choice.

It is time to help Li Ming and let him take over the Li family.Or turn a blind eye and close one eye, go through the motions and close the case early.
