Chapter 305 Lin Ting poisoned?
Nie Tian did not lose his temper, but instead lectured Nie Pengyun with a look of disappointment.
"Dad...I...I..."
"Well, I came here this time to help you solve this problem. You are so old, but you still don't have any brains.
Let me ask you, why do we in Yunzhou City, which we manage, try every possible means to force those people to live outside the city and forbid anyone from begging in Yunzhou City?
Nie Pengyun murmured softly, "It's to prevent the people in the mountains from being found by their families, and to prevent the people outside the city from starving to death or freezing to death, so that they won't be discovered by the government."
Nie Tian showed an evil smile at the corner of his mouth. Nie Pengyun remembered this, but used the wrong method.
"and then?"
"Then......"
Then Nie Pengyun didn't know what to do. Now that Lin Ting was giving porridge to the people outside the city, they would not starve to death.
And according to Nie Tian's request, they were to be allowed to die naturally so as not to dirty the hands of their master's mansion.
"Ah...you are still so stupid. I, Nie Tian, even doubt whether you are my biological son."
Nie Pengyun didn't dare to answer even when being scolded. In his father's eyes, he had never been smart since he was a child.
"Dad, what should we do now?"
Nie Tian: "Remember our goal. We want the people outside the city to die. Since they can't die of starvation, as long as they didn't die at the hands of our City Lord's Mansion, how they died has nothing to do with us."
Nie Pengyun knelt on the ground and blinked his eyes. He didn't understand what his father meant. Nie Tian was so angry that he stood up from the chair.
He pointed at Nie Pengyun and wanted to curse him, but then he felt that cursing would only make himself angry, so he threw his sleeves behind him.
"You... you... aren't there people giving porridge to those untouchables outside the city? But if it's poisonous porridge, they'll die faster than starving to death."
Nie Pengyun suddenly realized, yes, after drinking the poisoned porridge, all the people outside the city died, and the murderer was that Madam Lin, what did she have to do with their City Lord's Mansion?
"Great, Dad, your method is really great. You can kill someone with a borrowed knife, and we won't be hurt at all. You can also directly arrest that Lady Lin.
When the time comes, we’ll hand the people over to the Zhangzhou prefect, and we’ll say we feel sorry for the people and let their family members work on our farm. The prefect will even praise your father for his righteousness. Wonderful… so wonderful…”
"Now that you know the solution, why don't you do it quickly? Are you waiting for me to do it?"
Nie Pengyun stood up with a wicked smile and said goodbye: "Don't worry, Dad. This time, I will make sure to wipe out those people outside the city."
Today is the second day that Lin Ting and his companions have been trapped in Yunzhou City. Zhangzhou is not very far from here. Shen Qingzhou and Hu Zi should be back today. Soon, everything will be resolved.
"Master Lin, are you still going to make two hundred dan of rice porridge tonight?"
After using Lin Ting's method in the morning, it was very effective. Those who were already living a good life could not eat their porridge at all. It was now evening, so Wan Weiran asked Lin Ting for his opinion first.
"Boil two pots first, cook less, and be careful."
Lin Ting reminded Wan Weiran that someone might not be able to sit still tonight. It was so cold, and even Cheng Si came out of worry.
"Madam Lin, Doctor Wan, my people are here to report that there might be a problem at our soup kitchen tonight. You must be careful at all times."
Cheng Si has already offended the City Lord's Mansion. Instead of being restricted everywhere, it is better for him to follow Lin Ting and fight to the end.
Lin Ting observed his surroundings. Apart from Hu Zi's mother and the others, none of the people who came to distribute the porridge came.
There must be something wrong when things are abnormal, but Lin Ting felt that it was time to end it.
"I know, Boss Cheng is probably worried today and wants to come here to see the results of his plan. Since you are here, why not help with the work?"
Cheng Si's heart trembled. He had been suppressed by the City Lord's Mansion for many years. This time he could just use Lin Ting and the others to deal with the City Lord's Mansion together.
But he never showed it, and he did whatever Lin Ting asked him to do, but Lin Ting seemed to be able to see through him.
How could I know that he had something planned in his mind? It was as if he could see through all my thoughts.
This woman can create a beautiful face commercially, and her face looks harmless on the outside, but inside, she is a powerful one.
Fortunately, this time the two of them have the same goal. If he became Lin Ting’s enemy, he would definitely not be Lin Ting’s opponent.
Cheng Si was a little scared and was in a panic. He almost fell down while walking. As the boss, he had to help personally and mobilize personnel.
Lin Ting focused his attention on the porridge cooking and everyone who made unusual movements. People who didn't know didn't feel anything, but Lin Ting's intuition was not wrong.
In a corner of the city wall, Nie Pengyun stood with his arms folded across his chest, waiting to watch the show.
"Young City Lord, everything has been arranged. Our people have put poison in their water. Anyone who drinks that porridge will not survive tonight."
Nie Pengyun sneered: "Fight with me. After they have eaten the porridge, take our people and arrest them directly. I want to catch them red-handed."
"Young City Lord is right. It's so cold outside. I'm here to watch over you. Young City Lord, you should take a rest first."
The servant said flatteringly that everything had been done and Nie Pengyun just had to wait, and he would take Lin Ting and the others away in a moment.
The servant guarding the city wall saw Lin Ting and Wan Weiran surrounding the porridge pot. Isn't it just porridge? Why do you need so many people around?
After waiting for a long time, I finally saw someone pour rice into the pot and start cooking.
Later, Lin Ting also ate the porridge himself. Together with all the old, weak, women, children and kids outside the city, they had finished eating. Only then did the servant call Nie Pengyun out.
"Young City Lord, they have all drunk the poisoned porridge. It's time for us to take action."
Nie Pengyun came out of the carriage and waved his hand. All the guards of the City Lord's Mansion came out and surrounded the place where porridge was distributed outside the city.
Seeing that the person coming was Nie Pengyun, the tyrannical young city lord of Yunzhou City, Hu Zi's mother and the others were instinctively afraid, and were even more afraid that he would hurt Lin Ting.
"Come here, arrest the man who poisoned the people of Yunzhou City."
At Nie Pengyun's command, seven or eight guards rushed towards Lin Ting. Each of them was very aggressive and Lin Ting alone could not stop them.
"Let's see who dares to touch Madam Lin!"
Cheng Si brought his men to stand in front of Lin Ting. In Yunzhou City, even if he was injured, he had to protect his parents who provided him with food and clothing.
"Nie Pengyun, even if you want to kill me today, I won't let you touch a hair of Madam Lin."
Cheng Si's behavior also attracted the attention of the people in Yunzhou City.
Hu Zi's mother and the others ate the porridge distributed by Lin Ting. Only with Lin Ting could they be full. Lin Ting absolutely could not be bullied by Nie Pengyun.
"Young City Lord, Madam Lin is a good person. She would never harm us. You must have misunderstood."
Even though she was afraid of Nie Pengyun, Hu Zi's mother still mustered up the courage to speak up for Lin Ting.
