109, Chapter 109(1/2)
The atmosphere in the room was so oppressive that it made people breathless. Ji Zhifei looked at Qin Zhao and then at Gu Changzhou who was standing at the table. Only then did his slow and blank brain gradually understand the current situation.
He messed with the wrong people.
This Mr. Qin was obviously not the poor student he expected. On the contrary, he had a very high status, so high that even Gu Changzhou, a weaver in Jiangling, could only serve as his attendant.
Who is this?!!
It took Ji Zhifei a while to find his voice, his voice hoarse: "You...who are you?"
Qin Zhao closed the book in front of him, his eyes swept over the elegant and simple cover, and he smiled slightly at the corner of his mouth.
"Does it matter?"
This is important, but to Ji Zhifei, it is not that important.
Because no matter what Qin Zhaozhen's identity is, it is obvious that Gu Changzhou is his. And it is also obvious that Ji Zhifei has hit the wall this time.
Ji Zhifei's mind was racing and he forced himself to calm down.
The status of the Ji family in Jiangling Mansion is not as good as that of the Gu family, but it is not something that others can sway at will. Besides, this matter is just for a small shop, and Gu Changzhou will not be bothered by it.
The Ji family was in disarray.
He thought it was simple before, but now that the situation has developed to this point, what can he do if he admits his mistake and lowers his head?
Assessing the situation is the most important thing Ji Zhifei has learned over the years.
He quickly thought about the pros and cons and closed his eyes. When he opened his eyes, he was much calmer: "Mr. Qin, I have eyes under my eyes. Please don't forget the faults of the villain and let go."
Let’s live this time.”
He bent down and bowed politely to Qin Zhao.
The other person's answer came from above his head: "Okay."
Ji Zhifei was secretly happy and couldn't wait to raise his head, but heard the other party say again: "Then go to the Yamen now and admit that you paid for the murder."
Are you kidding???
"Mr. Qin, are you joking with me?" Ji Zhifei forced a smile and said, "Why do you want me to recognize something you have never done?"
Qin Zhao only lowered his head to sip the tea and did not answer.
Ji Zhifei looked at Gu Changzhou, who was standing next to him, and begged: "Uncle Gu, please say something to my nephew! How dare your nephew do such a thing as buying, murdering, and murdering someone?
Absolutely not possible!"
Gu Changzhou hesitated to speak, and finally just sighed heavily and opened his eyes.
"Well, if Ji Zi doesn't want to go, then don't go." Qin Zhao raised his eyes and looked at him, "I can give you a second choice."
Qin Zhao said calmly: "At dawn tomorrow, all the properties of the Ji family in the city will be taken over by someone. As for everyone in the Ji family, I hope that all of them can disappear from Jiangling and not set foot here."
"you--!"
Ji Zhifei's expression suddenly changed.
This is not an opportunity, it is clearly a threat.
If Ji Zhifei goes to the Yamen and admits that he bought, murdered, and killed someone, he will have only one end, and that is to be thrown into jail, or even executed according to law. But if he is unwilling, he will have to pay the price of ruining the Ji family.
.
This person... can this person really do this?
It’s just a small restaurant!
Ji Zhifei couldn't even put on his forced smile. He took a deep breath and said in a deep voice: "It seems that Mr. Qin has determined that those things were done by someone else?...You have evidence?"
?"
There can't be any evidence.
The person Ji Zhifei found had very clean hands and feet. A killer who did this kind of thing in the black market would not be caught so easily because he was responsible for countless lives.
Moreover, if the government found evidence, given the temperament of the prefect, they would have sent people to Ji's house to arrest people.
How can it be so calm?
Thinking of this, Ji Zhifei felt relieved a little, and said again: "You used the Ji family to threaten me to plead guilty, aren't you afraid that I will go to the government to sue you for deliberately framed?"
"Ji Zhifei!" Gu Changzhou yelled in a low voice, "If you still want to survive, just do as Mr. Qin said."
"It's him who didn't give me a way to survive!" Ji Zhifei felt as if all his energy and blood were rushing to his brain, and shouted, "It's just a small room, Uncle Gu, my father has worked hard for you these years, how could it be worse than
Why don’t you go to a shop?!”
"Asshole!"
Gu Changzhou kicked Ji Zhifei in the chest and knocked him to the ground: "Let me tell you, if it weren't for your father's sake, your life would have been over since you provoked Mrs. Qin.
No guarantee!"
Ji Zhifei stood still.
"Changzhou, calm down." Qin Zhao put down the tea cup and looked down at Ji Zhifei, who fell to the ground. "You guessed it right, I really have no evidence."
"That's why I'm willing to give you a chance to choose."
"There are thirty people in your Ji family. If you don't want them all to die unexpectedly, I advise you to do as I say."
"Why do you...Why do you..." Ji Zhifei's face turned pale and his lips trembled, "Is there any more royal method?!"
Qin Zhao asked calmly: "When you planned to seize shops and hired murderers to kill innocent people, did you ever think of Wang Fa?"
Ji Zhifei did not answer.
He always thought that what he did was just for a small shop. He never thought that he also killed a life and ruined a family.
In this world, human life is such a lowly thing. How could things become like this?
Ji Zhifei's vision was blurry and his mind was buzzing. He saw a figure walking in front of him and helping him up.
"Zhifei, listen to what Uncle Gu has to say." Gu Changzhou said, "Go to the government and surrender, admit what you have done. Only in this way can we keep the Ji family stable."
Ji Zhifei looked at Gu Changzhou blankly.
He tried to see a hint of intimidation or intimidation on the other person's face, but there was none. Gu Changzhou's eyes only showed compassion and helplessness.
In this room, he is no longer the person who can control the life and death of the Ji family, and he does not even have the right to choose whether to forgive him.
Ji Zhifei's whole body was shaking uncontrollably, and he slowly moved his gaze towards the man behind the desk. In a daze, he asked the same question he had just asked: "You... who are you...
"
"Does it matter?"
The man stared at him, his expression still calm. From the moment Ji Zhifei entered the room to the moment he showed up, there wasn't even much emotion on his slightly pale and sickly face. He just calmly threw it out.
They took two paths, but ended up ruining everything for Ji Zhifei.
Now that the matter has come to this point, this answer seems even less important.
Ji Zhifei felt that all the strength in his body had collapsed at this moment. He clung to Gu Changzhou before he could barely stand still, and said in a trembling voice: "Tomorrow morning, I will go to the Yamen to surrender."
Gu Changzhou breathed a sigh of relief.
Qin Zhao nodded: "Okay, you can go now."
Ji Zhifei was in a daze: "That's it?"
"Well, that's it." Qin Zhao said, "I hope Ji Zi won't tell anyone what happened today. Remember, I'm talking about everyone."
Gu Changzhou sent Ji Zhifei out of the room and watched him staggering away. He sighed and shook his head. He closed the door and returned to the inner room. Qin Zhao drank the last sip of tea and asked, "Are you satisfied with this?"
"
Gu Changzhou saluted him: "Thank you, Mr. Qin."
Gu Changzhou and Ji Zhifei's fathers were old friends for many years. They had worked as subordinates for many years and had some friendship. It was because of this friendship that Qin Zhao agreed to Gu Changzhou to let the Ji family live.
Otherwise, based on what Ji Zhifei has done these days, the outcome will be a hundred times more tragic than it is now.
Letting Ji Zhifei surrender to the government and clearing Boss Chang's name is the most appropriate way to deal with it.
"It's just..." Gu Changzhou hesitated again, "Really let Ji Zhifei leave like this? What if he tells what happened tonight..."
"Send someone to guard him." Qin Zhao said calmly, "If he utters a word indiscriminately, cut off his tongue. If he escapes from the battle, cut off one of his legs. I'll leave this matter to you, I can rest assured."
Gu Changzhou: "...Yes."
Qin Zhao stood up, walked to him, and said: "Also, regarding the grudge between my husband and Ji Zhifei, I don't want any rumors to spread in the city. You know what to do."
Gu Changzhou nodded: "Mr. Qin, don't worry, I've already clicked."
"Very good." Qin Zhao handed the book he had been reading to Gu Changzhou and smiled, "This book is well written, so I give it to you."
After saying that, he turned around and pushed the door open.
Gu Changzhou stood alone in front of the door of his room. When he was blown by the cold wind outside the door, he was shocked to realize that a layer of cold sweat had broken out on his vest. He raised his hand to wipe his forehead and looked down at the book in his hand.
