The Peasant Girl’s Splendid Manor

Chapter 38 Framing and taking the blame (2)

"Grandpa Li, I understand what you mean, but with my father's temperament, he definitely doesn't want us to do this!"

Mo Yan shook her head and rejected Li Zhong's suggestion. Her father is upright and very noble. Once he has the reputation of being greedy, he may not be able to hold his head up for the rest of his life, so until the end, she will not use the method of spending money to eliminate disasters.

Li Zhong obviously knew this, and was not surprised to hear Mo Yan refuse.

"What can you do? This matter cannot be delayed. I'm worried that they will lynch your father!"

Mo Yan nodded solemnly, thought for a moment and suddenly asked: "Grandpa Li, you have been in the capital before, do you know who the owner of Zhenbao Pavilion is?"

Li Zhong knew Mo Yan's plan when he heard it, but he didn't agree with it.

"Girl Yan, whether your father was framed or took the blame for someone else, it's hard to find the owner of Zhenbao Pavilion to come forward!"

Then, he analyzed it carefully with Mo Yan.

Before Li Zhong resigned from the country, he managed part of the business of his master. Things like corruption would happen once or twice a year. Unless the amount of corruption was particularly large, the boss would usually let his confidants do it. If this confidant is bribed by someone who is greedy for money, and the person who is greedy for money finds someone to take the blame to make up the money, everyone will turn a blind eye to the matter and pass it by. Both parties will benefit, and the only one who is unlucky is the person who was blamed.

The people from Zhenbao Pavilion broke in before and asked them to compensate two hundred taels. Such an amount would not alarm the owner of Zhenbao Pavilion. According to what the person here said, this matter was handled personally by the shopkeeper of Zhenbao Pavilion. In Zhenbao Pavilion, the shopkeeper was the most suspected of being able to frame Mo Qingze or get him blamed.

Therefore, Li Zhongcai persuaded Mo Yan to spend money to eliminate the disaster and use the money to rescue Mo Qingze.

After listening to Li Zhong's analysis, Mo Yan's face became extremely ugly. She really didn't expect that this world had such unspoken rules.

"Grandpa Li, is there no other way besides taking money to save my father?"

She is really unwilling to do so. Not to mention that her father is unwilling to bear such a stigma, and she also does not want those villains to succeed. However, they are just powerless ordinary people who are simply unable to fight against such a disaster, or even prove their innocence. No chance!

A strong feeling of powerlessness surged into Mo Yan's heart. At this moment, she realized very clearly that this was not the rule of law society in her previous life. If she had no power, she could only be manipulated by others. If she didn't want to be manipulated, she could only let herself be manipulated. Make yourself stronger.

"Don't worry, I'm going to find someone right now to see if I can get the owner of Zhenbao Pavilion to come forward and clear your father of the crime of corruption."

Li Zhong comforted her, but he had been away from Beijing for nearly ten years and his life had changed. He was not sure whether he could ask his old club to come forward.

"Grandpa Li, I..."

Mo Yan didn't know. She looked at Grandpa Li guiltily, not wanting to embarrass him, but in order to save her father, she didn't even have the courage to refuse.

Li Zhong interrupted her: "If it weren't for you, Yanzi and I would have become bones long ago. Now that you are in trouble, how can I sit back and do nothing? I just hope that my old bones can use my strength to save your father!"

Mo Yan was grateful, but still said: "No matter whether things can work out or not, don't force yourself!"

Li Zhong nodded, indicating that he knew.

After dinner, Li Zhong hurried out. Mo Yan did not sit at home and wait. She asked Li Yan to help look after the two siblings, Xiner and Zhen'er, and headed straight to the north of the city...
