Being a Lady of an Influential Family

Zhao Qingyun lived in a large courtyard two streets away from the Governor's Mansion. Today was supposed to be a working day, but Zhao Qingyun didn't go to work.

On the table behind him, boxes of all kinds of jewelry were placed in a mess, as well as two boxes of gold bars neatly arranged, as well as some foreign bank drafts and cash. Zhao Qingyun frowned at this time, holding two long boxes in his arms, and kept flipping through the cabinet with his hands.

"Bang bang." There were two knocks on the door, Zhao Qingyun was startled and his hands shook, the box in his hand almost fell to the ground.

He said angrily, "Who! I've told you everything, I have something to do, and no one is here!"

The person outside the door didn't reply, just knocked lightly twice again.

Zhao Qingyun was a little angry at the moment, holding the box in his hand, walked to the table and put it down, and said angrily, "Who is it!"

The door was gently pushed open from the outside, Zhao Qingyun was startled and suddenly realized, after he entered the room, did he put the latch on the door from the inside? How did this door open? !

Before he could figure it out, the door had been completely pushed open, and there were two people standing at the door.

Two women, one in her early thirties, and the other in her early twenties. The only thing in common is that these two women are very beautiful. Even if he is considered a person of status in the Southwest, he rarely sees such a beautiful woman.

"You... who are you? How did you get in?" Because there were two women, Zhao Qingyun relaxed his vigilance, and just frowned at the two of them.

The two women who suddenly visited the Zhao family were none other than Leng Sa and Shang Feiyun.

Leng Sa glanced at the table behind Zhao Qingyun, and said with a smile: "Mr. Zhao, are you planning to run away?"

Zhao Qingyun's face changed slightly, and he moved his body indistinctly to block the sight of the two of them. Leng Sa and Shang Feiyun looked at each other, and couldn't help smiling.

Zhao Qingyun obviously also found that his behavior was very ridiculous, so he no longer concealed it, and looked at the two of them confidently and said angrily, "Who are you? You shouldn't be guests of the Zhao family, right? How dare you break into this place, don't you want to live?" ?”

Leng Sa apologized a little, "I came here uninvited, please forgive me, Mr. Zhao."

Zhao Qingyun asked, "Who are you?"

Leng Sa said in a warm voice, "My surname is Leng, Leng Sa." Seeing that Zhao Qingyun didn't seem to respond yet, he figured it might be because of his lack of fame, so he added, "My husband's family name is Fu."

"What?! You!" Zhao Qingyun's complexion changed suddenly, but he shut his mouth decisively at the next moment, because he saw Leng Sa playing with a small pistol in his hand, and the muzzle of the gun was pointed at him.

He had heard about how powerful this young lady of the Fu family was. Even though he was a big man, he didn't dare to say that he could beat this one in front of him.

Leng Sa smiled and said, "I just like people who are knowledgeable and interesting. Don't be afraid, Mr. Zhao. I don't like killing people."

Zhao Qingyun didn't answer with a stiff face, Leng Sa and Shang Feiyun had already stepped into the room and closed the door smoothly. Seeing this, Zhao Qingyun could only complain secretly in his heart, once the door was closed, unless there was some movement, he would be in trouble. But if something really happened, he didn't dare to bet on whether Leng Sa would kill him and escape.

Taking a deep breath, Zhao Qingyun could only laugh along with him, "Mrs. Fu, I don't know what you mean by that?"

Leng Sa walked to the table, the gun in his hand lightly slid across the pile of jewelry and gold bars on the table, and asked directly, "Where did Sun Liang get those gold bars?"

Zhao Qingyun's eyelids twitched, and he said hastily, "I...I don't know."

Leng Sa looked at him with some surprise, "I don't know? You have been hiding it for him for two months, and now you say you don't know? Turn around...how do you explain?" Without waiting for Zhao Qingyun to answer, Leng Sa nodded again. Suddenly realized, "Oh, you are going to run away, it seems that you don't plan to explain. Let me see... well, a money order of 100,000 yuan, 40 gold bars, and these jewelry can add up Is there two or three hundred thousand yuan?"

Zhao Qingyun didn't dare to speak, Leng Sa turned her head to look at him, "But now you can't run away, why don't you explain?"

Zhao Qingyun said with a bitter face, "Mrs. Fu, I really don't know anything. What do you want me to explain?"

Leng Sa said: "I don't care, the gold flowed out of your hand, I can't find it... I have to hand you over to the warlord and the cabinet. Besides you, you have three sons, seven or eight grandchildren, right? The youngest is still in their infancy, how do you want them to live in the future? Poor."

Zhao Qingyun's face turned blue, and he raised his head to look at Leng Sa, "Mrs. Fu, I really don't know, even if you force me to death, I can't help it."

Leng Sa picked up a heavy gold bar from the box and weighed it in his hand, then spread it out in the palm of his hand, looked at it and said with a smile, "Pengcheng Guanzhu?"

Seeing that Zhao Qingyun remained silent with a livid face, Leng Sa did not insist, "If you don't know, then come with us, maybe you will know after thinking about it. I just don't know what Sun Liang would think if you disappeared? Yes How do you entertain your family? Ah, I remembered, your parents are still Sun Liang's uncles and aunts, so they shouldn't care about you?"

Zhao Qingyun's face became more and more ugly, Leng Sa continued, "I heard that Sun Liang killed Sun Rang two days ago?"

Shang Feiyun nodded and smiled and said, "Isn't it? After all, Sun Rang is still Dujun Sun's cousin. Dujun Sun is really decisive." onion?

Zhao Qingyun gritted his teeth and said, "Mrs. Fu, don't bully me too much!"

Leng Sa snorted softly, and said with some surprise, "I'm bullying too much? Mr. Zhao, you assisted Sun Liang to evacuate the gold in the entire Southwest financial inventory. Do you think you didn't do too much? Or, do you think Sun Liang Is it possible to make a comeback? Mr. Zhao intends to be a loyal minister who will devote himself to death?"

Shang Feiyun chuckled lightly and said, "Mr. Zhao, I advise you not to think too much. It is useless to procrastinate. Since we can come in, we can guarantee to leave with you. It’s fine if you can escape, since it has fallen into our hands, why don’t you think more about yourself?”

Zhao Qingyun looked at Shang Feiyun, and then at Leng Sa standing by the table, a look of struggle flashed in his eyes.

Leng Sha was not in a hurry, and simply sat down at the table, as if not in a hurry and waiting for him to make a decision slowly.

Time passed slowly, one minute, ten minutes, half an hour, and no one approached the room to greet him.

Sometimes he clearly heard voices outside, but soon those people left again, as if they didn't know that there were three other people in the room at this time.

Forty minutes, fifty minutes...

Leng Sa frowned slightly, lowered her head and looked at the watch on her wrist.

Even though the temperature was still a little low in early February, beads of sweat had already appeared on Zhao Qingyun's face, and his back, which was still wearing a short jacket, was already soaked in sweat.

As Leng Sa started to look at his watch, he seemed to feel that he could hear the sound of the watch moving. As a result, his face became paler and paler, and he felt a little unsteady on his feet.

"It's been an hour..." Leng Sa sighed authentically, put down the hand wearing the watch and looked up at Zhao Qingyun, "Mr. Zhao, you..."

Zhao Qingyun shivered, and suddenly said, "I...I said..."

Leng Sa raised her eyebrows slightly, and a faint smile appeared on her lips, "Please."

Zhao Qingyun seemed to have lost all strength, so he sat softly in the chair, leaned against the back of the chair and said, "I really don't know... I don't know where Sun Liang moved those gold bars. However, back then, the batch of gold bars I helped when they were transported out of the warehouse. I...Sun Liang asked me to transport the gold bars outside the city in batches and handed them over to his captain of the guard. I was afraid of attracting attention, so I divided them five times before delivering them all. I can tell you, but I really don’t know how the gold was processed and where it was shipped.”

Leng Sa smiled and said, "If it's Mr. Zhao, are you at ease letting someone unrelated handle such a large batch of gold?"

Zhao Qingyun was silent, and said coldly: "It seems that this captain of the guard is very trusted by Sun Liang?"

Zhao Qingyun nodded quickly and said, "Yes, he is also one of Sun Liang's adjutants, he is the person Sun Liang trusts the most, he trusts him more than our cousins, Sun Liang will let him do any messy things .That’s all I know, I really don’t know anything else.”

Leng Sa nodded, "Thank you Mr. Zhao for letting me know. Recently, Mr. Zhao please stay at home and don't run around."

Zhao Qingyun's face froze, he wanted to run away.

The reason why he chose to run now is because if it was too early, Sun Liang would not let him go, and if it was too late, the coalition forces really besieged Pengcheng and would not be able to run away even if they wanted to.

Now that Sun Liang has no time to take care of them, it is a good time, and he may not be the only one who thinks so.

As if he understood Zhao Qingyun's thoughts, he said coldly, "Mr. Zhao, think clearly. If I can successfully retrieve the gold, Mr. Zhao will be considered a meritorious service to the warlord and the military department of the cabinet, and everything is easy to say. But you If you run away, you will be a fugitive following Sun Liang's treason for the rest of your life, except for fleeing the country, you can only find a place in the countryside to live incognito, at least your Zhao family will not be able to get ahead in a few decades."

"I..." Zhao Qingyun looked at her suspiciously, and said, "You really won't pursue me?"

Leng Sa smiled and said, "That depends on what you have done? If there is nothing unconscionable, you should be properly rewarded for saving such a large loss for the country."

Hearing this, Zhao Qingyun was obviously relieved, hesitated for a while before saying to Leng Sa, "Okay, I can cooperate with you, but after the Fu family takes Pengcheng, they must ensure the safety of my family members, and after that, they must not give up because of my grandson and me. Don't worry, I'm just a civil servant, and I haven't done anything utterly unconscionable." Even if he was greedy for some money, he didn't dare to go too far with Sun Liang oppressing him. As long as the Fu family doesn't sit together, he won't be guilty of that incident.

Thinking of dozens of members of his family, old and young, and looking at the table of money in front of him, Zhao Qingyun could only accept his fate.

The Fu family has already come to the door, even if he wanted to escape, could he really escape?

Leng Sa nodded with satisfaction, "Very good, happy cooperation?"

Zhao Qingyun breathed a sigh of relief. Now that he has made up his mind, many things are easier to talk about, "I know something about that adjutant Sun Liang..."

Soon Leng Sa and Shang Feiyun left, watching the two go out, Zhao Qingyun finally heaved a sigh of relief and collapsed in the chair.

Turning his head stiffly to look at the jewelry and gold bars on the table, Zhao Qingyun felt his heart beating fast. It took a while to finally calm down, and he shouted loudly, "Come on!"

After a while, someone came in, "Master?"

Zhao Qingyun also heaved a sigh of relief seeing that it was the person who was usually by his side. Looking at the man, he asked, "Where have you been?"

The man said: "Go back to the master, just now the people around the old lady sent a message and asked the little one to come over."

Zhao Qingyun frowned, "The people around the old lady? What did you ask you to do?"

The man said calmly, "The old lady said that the master has lost a lot of weight these days, let the little one take care of the master so that he doesn't get too tired."

Zhao Qingyun was stunned for a while, then waved his hand and said, "You step back."

The man looked at his master with some doubts, somehow felt that the master looked much weaker than usual.

Seeing that person retreat respectfully, Zhao Qingyun leaned back in the chair and never sat up again.

His mother really cared about him, but usually, even if she told him, she would only tell his wife. After all, he was already in his forties, not a child, and he would never call the people who followed him over.

As for how he thought of it this time, he didn't want to pursue it.
