Chapter 47: Silver Tongue
He hates it!
The Lin family has no descendants, but the person who caused the Lin family to be extinct has not received the due punishment. Lin Fu feels depressed.
If the courtesan had been severely punished, he would not feel so uncomfortable.
Unexpectedly, at the critical moment, County Magistrate Zhang was scared. Not only was he scared, but he was also completely scared and even drew a clear line with him.
This situation made him feel dead, and when he remembered that his family had no descendants, his heart was even more complicated.
"I send you money every month, but you treat me like this."
"Others take money to do things, but you forget it after taking the 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.
The fire seemed to burst out of his body, and he couldn't control it at all.
Old and in poor health, Lin Fu felt weak all over in anger.
At this moment, there was a knock on the door.
"Don't come in! Do you think what I said is bullshit?!" Lin Fu shouted loudly.
No one dared to approach his yard, but at this moment, the door was pushed open and a masked man walked in.
"Who are you!"
Even if he was angry, Lin Fu felt something was wrong. How could a masked stranger come in?
He returned to normal, with caution in his eyes.
"Mr. Lin is very angry..." Xu Bai only showed his eyes except for his hands. He lowered his voice and pretended to be hoarse.
"What do you mean? This is the Lin Mansion." Lin Fu was a business man after all. He had encountered this scene before, so he barely kept calm.
"I came here to see if you have any ideas to avenge your son." Xu Bai said lightly.
Revenge?
As soon as these two words came out, Lin Fu stood up instantly.
Does he want revenge?
Yes!
He wanted to dream about it.
Hearing these two words, no matter how well he pretended, he couldn't help but react.
"Just say it if you have something to say. What do you mean? What revenge do you want?" Lin Fu tried to calm himself, but he still couldn't hide his emotions.
"Your only son died, but you can't avenge him. Do you feel very frustrated?" Xu Bai said slowly.
Lin Fu didn't say anything.
He looked directly at Xu Bai, not knowing what he was thinking.
"The problem in the final analysis is with Magistrate Zhang. If he helped you, how could you end up like this?" Xu Bai said again.
Lin Fu still didn't say anything, but from Xu Bai's perspective, Lin Fu's hands were clenched tightly.
"Without descendants in the family, even if you have a huge fortune, what can you do? The son of the family died, and as a father, you can't avenge him. What kind of father is this?" Xu Bai continued.
At this time, Lin Fu finally reacted.
"Do you think I don't want revenge? This Sheng County is the county of Magistrate Zhang alone. The mountains are high and the emperor is far away, and no one can deal with him."
Of course he wanted revenge, but how could he get revenge when Magistrate Zhang blocked him?
"The methods are all thought of by people. As long as you want to do it, there is a way." Xu Bai smiled.
"What method?" Lin Fu asked.
At this time, after Xu Bai's step-by-step enticement, he has fallen into it.
"As long as you can overthrow Magistrate Zhang, before the next Magistrate of Sheng County arrives, with the power of your Lin family, it will be easy to kill a prostitute, isn't it?" Xu Bai said slowly.
Lin Fu was stunned, and then a huge wave of waves rose in his heart.
If Magistrate Zhang heard this, he would be finished.
He had never thought of this method, because in his inherent thinking, the people should not fight against the officials.
But after Xu Bai's suggestion, it was like a seed planted in the soil, and after being watered by rain, new buds gradually emerged.
It lingers, and it can't be dispersed.
Lin Fu swallowed hard and asked subconsciously: "How can I... bring him down?"
He shut up immediately after asking.
"You must know every amount of your bribes better than anyone else. If this amount is made public, then no matter how capable he is, he will be powerless to turn the tide." Xu Bai put his hand on the long knife and said slowly.
"You are going to harm the Lin family. The briber will be in trouble, and the briber will not have an easy life." Lin Fu said.
Although he said so, the feasibility of this plan has emerged in his mind.
Sheng County is located in a remote area and is a small county town. In Sheng County, County Magistrate Zhang is indeed a jack of all trades.
This plan is indeed good. Once County Magistrate Zhang's bribery is exposed, the Great Chu State will definitely punish him severely.
A small county magistrate, gone is gone.
During the period of the upright development of the Great Chu State, if this matter was exposed, it would lead to instability in the hearts of the people, so the emperor would definitely not be lenient.
Even without this small county magistrate, the emperor could still serve as a warning to others.
But... there is an important premise, that is, the briber will also be severely punished.
Otherwise, why is Magistrate Zhang so confident?
Because everyone is tied to the same rope, if something goes wrong, everyone will go wrong together.
Lin Fu has to take the Lin family's affairs into consideration. If he really does this, it will definitely affect himself.
"Don't you understand what I mean? Everything has its origin. If you use your son's death as an excuse to do this, you will definitely be finished, but it may not be the case if you change it in another way." Xu Bai shook his head.
Change it in another way?
Lin Fu felt that his brain was not enough.
No matter which way he changed it, he was bribing.
Can he still get away?
"Think about it carefully. A person who has been oppressed and forced to bribe can't stand it. Then he sued Magistrate Zhang. Instead, you will become a person who is not afraid of power." Xu Bai said bluntly.
As soon as this sentence came out, the room fell into silence.
Lin Fu seemed to be thinking about the feasibility of the matter.
After a moment, he asked, "Who are you?"
Now, he mentioned the most important question.
"I have a grudge with Magistrate Zhang. You don't need to ask what the grudge is. If I want to deal with you, I would have done it long ago." Xu Bai said.
He added a reason for himself, otherwise it would be difficult to persuade this old man.
"Okay!" Lin Fu finally made a decision: "I have an account book at home, which records everything clearly. When the time comes, I will take it to Beijing and make him pay for it."
He had made up his mind. Thinking of the fact that he couldn't even avenge his son's death, and thinking of his own descendants, he couldn't help but get angry.
These days, the arrogant ones are afraid of their lives.
Lin Fu thought so.
Xu Bai thought that he could only let Lin Fu write it down, but he didn't expect there was an account book.
There is an account?
Even better!
"Just say that your son's death aroused your desire to resist, so you decided to make this matter public, so you will be fine. Of course, there is a process in the middle." Xu Bai stretched out his index finger.
"What's the process?" Lin Fu asked.
