Someone wants to do something to the Second Uncle?

Ling Zhang immediately frowned.

Yuwen Tong stood in front of him, and suddenly reached out his hand to touch his brows, "What are you panicking for, since I know, I won't let anything happen to him."

Ling Zhang stopped and slightly leaned back, flinging aside Yuwen Tong's finger. His expression was somewhat unnatural, "Then let's quickly go."

Yuwen Tong retracted his hand, pretending not to see Ling Zhang's uncomfortable look.

Looking at Ling Zhang and Yuwen Tong who walked in side by side, Ling Xingzhong once again felt pity for his eldest grandson's decision.

There were two people that were so compatible, why didn't Zhang Er like them?

Looking at the old man's sad expression, Ling Zhaowen deeply felt helpless. He never thought that the old man would be so satisfied with Yuwen Tong.

Although the meal was still very lively, it was obvious that the atmosphere was not as before. Everyone knew why there was such a change, other than Ling Maomao.

"Can you tell me what's going on now?" Once he left the antechamber, Ling Zhang asked impatiently.

"Jia Zhong wants to use the beauty trap to frame your Second Uncle." Yuwen Tong said.

"Beauty trap?" "My Second Uncle and my Second Aunt treat each other sincerely as husband and wife. After so many years, my Second Uncle has never given any face to other women, and those people even said that my Second Uncle is afraid of inside. Everyone in the Tan Yang knows, why would Jia Zhong use a beauty like that?"

"Perhaps because of this, the moment your Second Uncle fell into his trap, the effects would become even more severe." Yuwen Tong said.

"What are they going to do?" Ling Zhang asked.

"Last May, did your Second Uncle ever settle down in the Taixian's Liu family?" Yuwen Tong asked.

Last May? Ling Zhang was slightly taken aback. After going through two lifetimes, his memories became very distant, and after thinking back carefully, he seemed to recall that something like that happened. When he came back from Taixian, he said that Taixian County was obviously well, but they had an excuse to overhaul the blackmail of the Regional Palace's silver, and got angry.

"That's true." Ling Zhang nodded.

Your Second Uncle caught the eyes of the Liu Family's Liu Chengfang, who was not out of the pavilion, and was wholeheartedly trying to marry your Second Uncle. His father, Liu Weiling, did not want her to become his concubine and kept her at home. Yuwen Tong said.

Ling Zhang clenched his fists in anger. Those despicable people, if they couldn't even do one move, they would do the same!

He believed that his Second Uncle would not be enchanted by a mere Liu Chengfang, but if the other party had used some sinister method, his Second Uncle would be unable to defend against it, and would fall into their trap!

"Thank you." Ling Zhang said to Yuwen Tong seriously.

Yuwen Tong must have sent people to watch Jia family, otherwise they would not know about it so quickly and in such detail.

"I've already said that your matters are my matters, so there's no need for you to thank me." Yuwen Tong said.

Ling Zhang looked at him, and wanted to say something, but the words that were about to reach his mouth made him not know what he wanted to say, so he could only swallow it back.

"Hurry and remind your Second Uncle." Yuwen Tong said, his eyes seemed to be able to see through Ling Zhang's thoughts.

Ling Zhang pursed his lips, nodded his head, and turned to leave.

In the afternoon, Ling Zhaowen still had to go to the magistrate court.

Seeing Ling Zhang coming over, he was startled, "Zhang Er?"

"Second Uncle, I have something urgent to tell you."

That evening, many people from Prefecture Yamen walked out. Because Ling Zhaowen had something to discuss with Tao Feng, he was delayed for a while. When he came out, there should not be many people outside, but he saw that someone was waiting for him.

"Lord Ling, it's been a long time since you've gathered with us. How is it? Let's go together."

The people waiting at the door were all colleagues in the Prefecture Yamen. There were occasionally such gatherings, but Ling Zhaowen would sometimes participate or not, it all depended on where they were going.

"I still have some matters to attend to in my manor, so I'm truly sorry about today. Next time, I'll drink a few cups with everyone." Ling Zhaowen rejected.

"Your family's old man is here, and your nephew is capable. What is there to rush back for? I say, you've already refused three times. This time, at least come with us for a few drinks."

"That's right. Lord Ling, don't worry. We know that you don't want to make Madam unhappy. This time, we're going to a restaurant, and we're not going anywhere else."

"Now you can relax."

Ling Zhaowen still wanted to reject them, but two people came forward, and one pulled on his arm, "Let's go, it's just drinking a few cups, I won't hold you back."

Ling Zhaowen was helpless, he could only follow them.

The restaurant that everyone arrived at was the Fengtai building, and this place was not too far from the Ling Family. Ling Zhaowen also calmed down a little.

We have already booked a room, it is upstairs, the wine is Fengtai building's latest batch of good wine from the cellar, pick out a few jars, and the dishes are also the wild game that the Hunters brought us to hunt today, and they were all prepared by Fengtai building, we calculated the time and came here, and it was for you to delay a while, so they should all be together now.

Everyone gathered Ling Zhaowen and calculated the amount, then went straight to the second floor.

Sure enough, they had booked a room, which was completely blocked from the outside. It was spacious and undisturbed, making it suitable for drinking and chatting.

The dishes inside had indeed all been served. They were currently warming up, ready to be cooked at any time.

"What do you think? Don't worry. They're all on your side here."

Ling Zhaowen had indeed relaxed his guard a little, and allowed them to take the main seat.

"Let's not talk about business today, just chat casually. What do you think, Sir?" someone asked.

Ling Zhaowen nodded, "I should."

"I knew that my lord would be straightforward. My lord, please try the game today and see if you can guess which game it is."

Since Ling Zhaowen was moved to the main seat, naturally, he would first use his chopsticks and taste the stewed meat in front of him. The texture of the meat was tender and the taste was excellent.

"How is it, did the lord taste it?"

Ling Zhaowen was slightly surprised, "Deer meat?"

"That's right, it's the venison. This venison was captured by that hunting partner with a lot of effort."

"Quickly, everyone, come and have a try."

With good dishes and wine, the wine was naturally ready to be drunk. After three rounds, everyone's face had turned a little hot.

After three rounds, all of their faces were red.

Ling Zhaowen's alcohol tolerance did not rise at all, after eating so much, he was still a little drunk, and after being advised to drink a few more cups, he had already lost consciousness.

"No, I can't. I can't drink anymore. If I drink anymore, I'll get scolded by Madam when I get home." Ling Zhaowen said.

"Lord Ling, you are just too afraid of the inside. That's why you are being controlled so tightly by Madam!"

"That's right. If that guy in my house dares to do this to me, I … I will divorce her!"

The group of people drank until they no longer had any scruples. They put on an air as if they were speaking the same thing at home, and then fiercely talked about their wives and concubines to show their might.

Ling Zhaowen had never complained to his wife before, so he naturally could not act along with them. He stood up unsteadily, "I really have to go back, you guys continue drinking."

"Lord Ling, please don't go. Drink two more cups."

"Right, right, right. If you don't drink, you're looking down on us."

"Drink two more cups."

Ling Zhaowen was pushed back onto the chair, and the wine cup in front of him was once again filled up, so he had no choice but to drink another cup.

If you have one, you have a second, and a third... In the end, it was already difficult for him to even stand up.

The rest of them were all drunk, some of them were already lying on the ground, either sleeping or talking nonsense, in any case, every one of them was awake.

Ling Zhaowen struggled to get up and tried to stand up several times but still failed. His vision became blurry and he was no longer able to think clearly.

"Hmph, I really did faint. Hurry up and carry him to the next room."

"Yes sir!"

Ling Zhaowen was lifted off the chair and walked out. Because he was drunk, he thought the people carrying him were the servants and Coachman, so he did not struggle.

The person carrying him dragged him out of the room and directly into the next room.

There was already a girl waiting next door. This woman wore a veil that only revealed her eyes. She wore pink and tender clothes. His clothes and accessories were all very exquisite. She was the young miss of a rich family.

"Miss Liu, this Lord Ling is here for you. Whether or not you can grasp the opportunity is up to you." The person who brought Ling Zhaowen in swept the lady with his sinister gaze, and said with a sticky and disgusting tone.

The veiled lady looked at the drunk Ling Zhaowen, and did not care about the gazes of others, "Since I've agreed, I will not go back on my words, all of you leave."

"Heh." The person who sent Ling Zhaowen in laughed disdainfully, waved to him, then brought the others to leave, before closing the door tightly.

As Ling Zhaowen sat on the chair in the room, he was already completely unconscious, and almost fell into a deep slumber.

The woman across from him pounced on him happily. "My lord, do you still remember me?"

She looked at Ling Zhaowen in a daze and reached out to touch his face, "My Lord."

Ling Zhaowen frowned slightly. Even though he was no longer awake, the voice of an unfamiliar woman still made him wary and made him resist to the point of wanting to wake up.

"Lord, very soon, very soon, you will be mine. You must marry me and enter the house. I have been looking forward to this day for so long. For you, I am willing to do anything!"

The woman looked at Ling Zhaowen with a crazed look. She took off her veil, her bright red lips should have been extremely beautiful, but in this face that was twisted by excitement, it looked like a terrifying ghost.

"Milord …" The woman supported Ling Zhaowen's arms as she slowly got closer to him.

Just as she was about to touch Ling Zhaowen, a rock suddenly shot from outside the window and struck her acupoints, knocking her out.

Ling Zhaowen, who should have been drunk to the point of unconsciousness, suddenly opened his eyes. Although his eyes still contained some intoxication, they were still much more sober than before.
