Ling Zhang then told Ling Zhaowen about everything that had happened in the Jia Mansion in detail. Only now did Ling Zhaowen know many of the details that he did not know before.

At the same time, Ling Zhaowen also seriously observed his nephew.

He thought that he was not wrong. His nephew had indeed changed a lot.

It was as if he had grown up in the span of a single day, and in the previous day, he was just a young man who followed the rules. In the blink of an eye, he had grown up into a decisive but worldly-wise young man.

This caused Ling Zhaowen to feel extremely gratified in his heart, but at the same time, he could not help but feel sad.

What happened in Jia Mansion must have given my nephew a great shock, and the betrayal of my friends must have hurt his heart, which was why his nephew, who has always been kind and gentle, changed by so much.

He had let down his big brother and couldn't take good care of his nephew.

Different from other people's guesses, Ling Zhaowen did not suspect anything about his nephew, he only felt sorry for him.

"I didn't know that Jia family had been holding a grudge against me for the past few years. If I knew earlier, I would have stopped you from getting too close to Jia Yuanling, and you wouldn't have suffered so much!" Ling Zhaowen was very angry.

"Second Uncle, this cannot be blamed on you. Jia family is good at pretending. I have fault too; I didn’t recognize what kind of person Jia Yuanling is.” Ling Zhang said coldly.

In his previous life, if he had found out the truth about Jia Yuanling and Jia family's in time, he wouldn't have been bullied by Jia Yuanling, and wouldn't have been trapped into a passive situation.

"Now that Jia Yuanling has already been declared crime, since Zhang Chong didn't save Jia Yuanling, and even cut off his relationship with his foster father on the spot, the relationship between him and the Jia family would definitely not be as good as before. However, the relationship between the Jia family and Zhang Chong relied on the connection between Jiazhong and the mine of Jia Family. I am worried that Jia Yuanling would still be saved even if he were to be exiled from this place. Second Uncle, I have a plan.”

Ling Zhaowen was shocked, he captured the killing intent that flashed across his nephew's face and became somewhat dazed, "What are you planning to do?"

Ling Zhang looked at Ling Zhaowen, "Kill him."

The calm tone did not have the slightest bit of hesitation, as though killing Jia Yuanling was an extremely normal thing.

Ling Zhaowen's guess became right, he quickly looked outside the study room to confirm that there were no servants there, and then frowned and said to Ling Zhang: "How are you going to kill him?"

This time, it was Ling Zhang's turn to be surprised. He asked Ling Zhaowen: "Second Uncle, won't you be angry?"

Ling Zhaowen was silent for a moment, then said: "Regarding the relationship between Ling Family and Jia family, it's not too much to call it mortal enemies. Zhang Chong is also glaring at Ling Family fiercely, those people following Zhang Chong wouldn't mind help their master to take action against our Ling Family. Killing Jia Yuanling is also fine, at least it can temporarily intimidate those henchmen ofs. But how do you planned to kill Jia Yuanling? "

Ling Zhang came back to his senses after hearing Ling Zhaowen's words. He said with a cold expression: "Jia Yuanling's could only be exiled whether in northern border and Southern Frontier. Isn't it easy to find extremely vicious people to kill him at the border?"

Ling Zhaowen laughed, "Good, but we do not have to kill him after he getting his destination. The people escorting Jia Yuanling to the border region were Yamen (staff of ancient government office) of the Prefecture Yamen. In order to avoid suspicion and trouble following the matter, Zhang Chong would not casually rescue him, he would only rescue Jia Yuanling after he reached his destination. Many of the prisoners died in the process of transportation, as long as we do not do it openly, no one will find it strange if Jia Yuanling died in the middle of transportation, not to mention that he was already injured. "

Ling Zhang's eyes lit up, "But how do we avoid the escorting Yamen?"

Ling Zhaowen laughed again, "Who said we should avoid them? Leave this matter to Second Uncle, there's no need for you to interfere."

After Ling Zhang heard this, he suddenly realized that, Second Uncle, as an official of the Prefecture Yamen, had been working in the Prefecture Yamen for many years, it was easier for him to do anything than anyone else to the Yamen that was to escort prisoners.

"Then Second Uncle, you must be careful. Don't let anyone find out."

Ling Zhaowen nodded: "Don't worry, Second Uncle knows how to do."

Of course, Ling Zhang trusted his Second Uncle, so when his eyes inadvertently swept across Second Uncle’s waist, and saw an exquisite jade pendant, the familiar appearance immediately brought back Ling Zhang's memories, causing his heart to tighten.

"Second Uncle, have there been anyone around you who is behaving strangely recently?"

Ling Zhaowen was suddenly asked, and puzzled, "What's wrong?"

Ling Zhang did not know how to explain it to Second Uncle, he thought for a while and said: "Since their goal is to seize your position, and they are not able to do it now, I am afraid that there will be another plan. Tan Yang and the bandits around him are so dangerous, if they slander us for colluding with bandits, Ling Family will also be in danger. The servants in the family, especially those who are close to us, we have to choose carefully. "

However, Ling Zhaowen listened weirdly, because Ling Zhang's tone was filled with certainty, as if Ling Family would indeed be framed to colluded with bandits.

"Zhang Er, why do you think that they would definitely frame our Ling Family and those bandits as colluding? Have you discovered something? "

Ling Zhang never thought that Ling Zhaowen's senses would be so sharp, and sense that something was amiss so quickly.

If possible, he wished he could tell Second Uncle everything he knew, so that he could be on guard. But he didn't know how to explain that. Even if he did, would the Second Uncle believe him?

"Talk more with Second Uncle. No matter how did you get to know, Second Uncle will not blame you." Ling Zhaowen saw through Ling Zhang's wavering and guessed that it was difficult for him to say anything because of some reason.

"Second Uncle, I had a dream." Ling Zhang took a deep breath, and decide to tell everything he knew in the form of a dream.

Ling Zhaowen saw that the aura around Ling Zhang's body had suddenly become oppressive and heavy, and his face also revealed a pained expression. The emotions in his eyes also told that his nephew's heart was extremely unsettled, as if he had suffered too much pain and grief, making him heartbroken.

Ling Zhaowen's expression became serious as well. He believed that this dream was definitely not normal.

I dreamed that I was framed to commit adultery with wives of Jia Yin in Ling Family and declared crime. Your expected promotion is also ruined by this. After that, grandfather went to the Jiangzhou to appraise the calligraphy and painting for others. But the original appraised calligraphy and painting was suddenly reported as a fake, causing grandfather to be kicked out of his home and his reputation to be greatly affected. After that, the entire Lu Family was suddenly all killed overnight by those evil bandits, all of their belongings were looted, and when the officials investigated the scene in the Lu Family, they found out that your jade pendant was tightly grasped by the Patriarch of the Lu Family. Because of this jade pendant, our Ling Family was accused of colluding with the bandits and murdered Lu Family. "In fact, the jade pendant disappeared a long time ago. You couldn't find it, so you didn't pay much attention to it. You thought it had accidentally landed somewhere …"

Ling Zhaowen's face became more and more solemn, and in the end, he became even more shocked.

"Does Second Uncle also feel that I have suddenly changed a lot?" Ling Zhang asked Ling Zhaowen.

Ling Zhaowen calmed himself from the shock and said, "Is that related to this dream?"

Ling Zhang nodded, "Does Second Uncle believe me? I was drunk in the pavilion beside Jia Yuanling's courtyard when I had that dream. I felt that it was too real and couldn't help but be wary of it. That's why I was able to promptly put the medicinal jade my mother left for me into my mouth and remove the effects of the Ecstasy. That was why I was able to leave in time before those people arrived, and was able to fight back against Jia Yuanling! "

"Second Uncle, I don't think it's a dream. It's like a thing that once existed in life."

The more Ling Zhang spoke, the more obvious the cold and vicious aura he emitted, and the fierceness and killing intent that appeared in his eyes could not be concealed at all.

Even Ling Zhaowen felt the changes of his nephew, when he saw Ling Zhaowen acting in such a manner, he returned from shock and knew that the situation was not good. He hurriedly stepped forward and held Ling Zhang's hand tightly, and shouted: "Zhang Er!"

The warm palm and Second Uncle's shout pulled Ling Zhang back from his tragic memories of his previous life. The cold and vicious aura on his body slowly melted, and the ruthlessness and killing intent in his eyes also slowly faded away. “Second Uncle?”

Ling Zhaowen looked at him, and said solemnly: "You've been possessed."

This wasn't a nightmare; those were real memories. Ling Zhang slowly took a deep breath before he exhaled, suppressing the undulating emotions in his heart.

"I'm sorry Second Uncle, I didn't control my feeling well."

Ling Zhaowen shook his head, "Silly child, why did you say sorry to Second Uncle? You had such a dream, yet when you woke up the dream became real again, and no matter who it was, he would be trapped in nightmares. At that time, you did not panic, but instead calmly killed Jia Yuanling, and that was already very well."

Even Ling Zhaowen was not feeling calm right now.

He believed his nephew would not make up a dream to deceive him but that’s too real and wired. If all of this was just a coincidence, then it was too far-fetched. He did not dare to imagine what the consequences would be if his nephew did not have that dream and did not leave his guard up to help him remove the Ecstasy in time.

Perhaps everything would truly be like what happened after his nephew's dream, then Ling Family …

Ling Zhaowen could not help but shiver in his heart.

"Zhang Er, tell the Second Uncle about what happened in your dreams again in detail. Don't worry, speak slowly. Now Ling Family and you haven’t been framed yet, calm down. In the end, Ling Zhaowen decided to seriously analyze his nephew's dream.

Although it sounded absurd, Ling Zhaowen was still willing to do more preparations.

What's more …

In Ling Zhaowen's heart, there was still a very secretive secret. He thought about his sister-in-law who died young, and his nephew carried the blood of his sister-in-law, maybe he was different from others since he was born.

Those dreams could very well be warnings.

Seeing that Ling Zhaowen was willing to listen to his story of the dream, Ling Zhang was surprised, "Second Uncle, do you believe in my dream?"

Ling Zhaowen nodded: "I believe that it was a warning from the heavens. Otherwise, I wouldn't have allowed you escape that calamity."

Ling Zhang was overjoyed, it was great that the Second Uncle was willing to believe it!
