Chapter 682: They Are Too Weak
She nodded, went over to rinse her mouth, and while washing her face, she asked him: "Did you find it after last night?"
Luo Fengtang shook his head: "I couldn't find him. His son is not at White Deer Academy at all."
"In fact, there are no students from Wanghai County in the roster!"
Her hand holding the veil paused slightly.
"Will it be in other academies in Qing'an County?" she asked again.
Luo Fengtang's voice came again over there.
"None of them are here," he said.
"I suspect that Wang Ling was deceived by Rich Man Li. There is no name of his son in any academies in Qing'an County!" Luo Fengtang said again.
She was surprised when she heard his firm voice.
"Why do you say that?" she asked.
He then took out a stack of rosters of different thicknesses from his body and threw them on the table.
Yang Ruoqing walked over, picked up the pile and scanned it one by one, surprised.
"Don't tell me, you went out again last night while I was asleep?"
She opened her eyes wide and looked at him and asked.
He grinned: "Hey, just play the whole set."
She was so shocked that she couldn't speak.
There are ten books in this roster.
In other words, this kid committed ten crimes in one night. Counting the previous trip with her, he committed eleven crimes!
"Dear me, I really didn't realize that you have this ability?" Her eyes shone brightly.
Godly thief, Yan Zi and Li San were so weak in front of him!
When she praised this, Luo Fengtang scratched his head in embarrassment.
"Ashamed, ashamed," he said.
He has always prided himself on being an aboveboard person.
Unexpectedly, I committed a thief last night.
Why!
Yang Ruoqing could see what he was struggling with and what he was ashamed of.
She smiled and patted his chest: "This is nothing to be ashamed of."
"We're not stealing money, we're borrowing the rosters of various academies to take a look."
"The purpose is to help Wang Ling and drag his family out of the burning pit of Rich Master Li."
"What we did is a good thing, and we should be proud of it. Come on, come on, don't droop your face, smile..."
After some enlightenment from her, his mood suddenly became brighter.
Seeing that she couldn't wait to sit down at the table and browse through the pages.
He said: "Qing'er, you watch first, I'll go down and bring you breakfast."
"OK!"
She said without raising her head, her eyes scanning the pages in front of her one by one.
He looked at it extremely carefully, not missing a single word.
While eating and breakfasting, she closed the last roster, her face looking a little solemn.
"Wang Ling was definitely deceived by Rich Man Li. His son is not at the academy in the county at all," she said.
Luo Fengtang nodded: "What should we do next?"
Yang Ruoqing said: "Anyway, we have the token given by Zuo Junmo. We will go to Bailu Academy to visit later."
"Um!"
…
On the way back to Changping Village.
Yang Ruoqing was not sleepy at all, but sat in front of the carriage, sitting side by side with him, discussing things along the way.
"I went to visit the academy. The steward of the academy also said that there is no such student at all." Yang Ruoqing said.
"Tell me, where is Wang Ling's son?" she asked.
Luo Fengtang frowned slightly, looking thoughtful.
"Is it possible that Mr. Li imprisoned Wang Ling's son?" he asked.
Just like they are doing now, imprisoning Wang Ling.
No one is aware of it, and no one will know it for ten days and a half.
What's more, the other party is still a child under ten years old.
After hearing Luo Fengtang's words, Yang Ruoqing also felt that it was very possible.
Luo Fengtang continued: "Qing'er, should we tell Wang Ling about this?"
Yang Ruoqing thought for a moment and shook her head.
"Don't say it yet," she said.
"Now that I have said it, Wang Ling will definitely go to Mr. Li to question him. If Mr. Li has any ulterior secrets, then he will alert the enemy."
"Let's help him find out the whereabouts of his son secretly first, and then tell him the truth when we get the results!"
She analyzed.
Everyone has selfish motives, and it is impossible to go out and do things for yourself when you are full.
She was running back and forth like this with only one purpose.
Wang Ling has special skills, and she wants to show him kindness.
Reserve available resources for Luo Fengtang’s future!
After listening to Yang Ruoqing's analysis, Luo Fengtang thought about it and felt it made sense.
"A good man will go to the end and send Buddha to the West. Since we have intervened in this matter, we will help him get to the bottom of it!" Luo Fengtang said.
"I also want to know where the rich man Li hid Wang Ling's son!" he said.
Yang Ruoqing snapped her fingers: "If you want to get to the bottom of things, Rich Man Li's lair cannot be spared."
Luo Fengtang frowned.
"Grandmaster Li's house is different from other houses. There are hundreds of people living in Guanghuyuan. I heard that there are many vicious dogs in the yard."
"When we go to his house, we have to look for an opportunity and we can't act rashly," he said.
Yang Ruoqing nodded: "That's necessary. We have to help Wang Ling, but we can't risk our own lives!"
"Don't worry, I will definitely see the opportunity and sneak in!"
…
The sun has set.
In the western sky, the sunset glow followed the fire, dyeing half of the sky red.
The shepherd boy rides an ox, holds fresh leaves in his mouth, and plays loud and melodious music.
The carriage arrived at the entrance of the village in a leisurely manner.
When we passed by the construction site, we just happened to catch up with Yang Huazhong and others to finish work.
The man was very happy to see Yang Ruoqing and Luo Fengtang returning from Qing'an County.
"I came back in three days, which is very convenient." The man said.
I left for one day, returned for one day, and stayed in Qing'an County for one day.
Counting it all together, it really took three days.
Yang Ruoqing smiled and said: "After the things are done, I will definitely come home!"
"Dad, I specially brought some special snacks from Qing'an County to deliver to my grandparents, relatives and friends later that night."
She continued.
This era is no better than modern times, and transportation is underdeveloped.
People in the village have to get up very early every time they go to the market in Qingshui Town.
I can't even go to the county seat two or three times a year.
Some people, such as the Tan family and Jin family, have probably never been to the county town in their lives.
As for Qing'an County, which is further away, let alone it.
Therefore, during this trip to Qing'an County, Yang Ruoqing definitely had to buy some things from there to give to her relatives and friends.
Yang Huazhong nodded repeatedly: "Okay, okay, my daughter is really good at doing things, then you go home quickly, your mother will miss you several times a day!"
After dinner at night, the craftsmen dispersed.
Yang Ruoqing asked Yang Huazhong: "It's been three days, has Butcher Chen's family made a statement?"
If you agree to keep it secret, you have to give fourteen taels of silver as compensation.
If she didn't agree, then she would prepare to treat Captain Liu to a quick meal again, so that Butcher Chen would have to spend a few more months in jail.
Hearing Yang Ruoqing ask, the smile on Yang Huazhong's face stiffened.
"Uncle Chen Hu came over and agreed to keep it private."
"They asked if they could make more concessions. They really can't come up with fourteen taels of silver. There's no chance of ten taels..." the man said.
"Then what?" Yang Ruoqing asked.
The man said: "I said, I can't decide on this matter. Everything has to wait until my daughter comes back..."
Yang Ruoqing smiled.
"Well, Dad, you are right."
