Chapter 321 Cockfighting Game
"Shut up!" Lin Yangyang couldn't hold it in any longer. She immediately looked at Jiang Liuyun:
"So what if I'm an adopted son? Shi'an at least won't repay kindness with enmity, unlike some ungrateful people who are impossible to raise."
"Besides, whether to save him or not is my Lin family's business. What does it have to do with you?"
"If you're bored, grab a stool and sit under the big willow tree in the West Market. I think you and that gossipy woman over there would get along quite well."
Lin Yangyang opened fire at full force, and with just a few words, she defeated Jiang Liuyun step by step.
People like Jiang Liuyun will only attack others openly or covertly through words, and will not be as straightforward as Lin Yangyang.
He choked for a long time and could only utter "shrew".
Lin Yangyang didn't care what others said about her. She looked at Lin Zhiqing again, as if waiting for her to speak.
But Lin Zhiqing never said a word.
Jiang Yunhe on the side frowned.
He wasn't sure what Lin Zhiqing was thinking.
It is said that Lin Zhiqing cares about Lin Shian, but she is reluctant to use Zheng Kuo's information to exchange for Lin Shian.
She said she didn't care about Lin Shian, but for Lin Shian's sake, she let them in.
You know, when Jiang Yunhe and Jiang Liuyun entered the Lin family, in the eyes of the people outside, that was a sign of reconciliation between the Lin and Jiang families.
The fact that they can reconcile means that most of what happened before was fake.
This is a good thing for the Jiang family, but on the contrary, it is not a good thing for the Lin family.
That's why Jiang Yunhe felt that he had grasped the lifeblood of the Lin family.
But now, with Lin Zhiqing's silence, everything seems less certain.
Jiang Yunhe frowned and turned to look at the Lin family members:
"I only give you three days. If after three days, no news about Zheng Kuo reaches my house, then I will take Lin Shian's life for you!"
After saying this, he deliberately observed the reactions of everyone in the Lin family.
Lin Zhiqing looked serious, but had no intention of speaking.
Lin Yangyang was so anxious that he scratched his head.
Lin Congli and Lin Congyan didn't say a word, but they clenched their fists, obviously caring about Lin Shian.
Jiang Yunhe curled the corners of his lips as he looked at the various states of being.
What Lin Zhiqing has to face now is not just pressure from the outside world.
These people from the Lin family will crush her to death sooner or later.
"Yun'er, let's go." He called Jiang Liuyun, turned around and left.
Seeing that Lin Zhiqing hadn't spoken yet, Lin Yangyang stamped her feet, took out the whip, and whipped Jiang Yunhe again:
"You old thief, I'm going to take your life. Let's see if you dare to touch Shi'an again!"
The whip drew a graceful arc in the air and was about to fall on Jiang Yunhe.
Jiang Yunhe's eyes flashed, and he dodged the whip at an unimaginable speed.
“Bang!”
The whip fell mercilessly to the ground, raising a cloud of dust.
"One whip mark is enough." Jiang Yunhe snorted coldly:
"One day, if there is no news about Zheng Kuo after one day, Lin Shian will definitely be beheaded!"
"If you still dare to play tricks, then try it!"
"You, you..." Lin Yangyang was indeed worried about Lin Shian. At this moment, she didn't even dare to say a complete sentence.
Jiang Yunhe saw this, took one last look at Lin Zhiqing, and walked away.
However, as soon as he stepped out of the door, the expression on his face changed rapidly.
He covered his face with his sleeves and hurried into the carriage.
This attempt to cover up something immediately aroused the curiosity of the people, and they all came forward to see what was going on.
Before the car door closed, Jiang Yunhe "happened" to put down his sleeves.
His face, swollen from the beating, was exposed to the public, causing an uproar.
Marquis Zhenyuan was beaten by the Lin family!
If it was someone else, it would be fine, but he is Marquis Zhenyuan. It is not an exaggeration to say that he is the new generation of war god of Dasheng!
Now that he has lowered his posture and gone to the Lin family to apologize, he was beaten by the Lin family instead. What kind of thing is this?
The people were whispering to each other, and the discussion was getting louder.
But the Lin family now has no intention of dealing with this matter.
"Sister Qing, what are you hesitating about?" Lin Yangyang paced anxiously. "Zheng Kuo is already dead, so why can't we tell him?"
"Dead, do you really know the whereabouts of Zheng Kuo?" Lin Congli frowned on the side.
"That's right. It was Zheng Kuo who told us that Zheng Yuanhou framed my second uncle." Lin Yangyang spoke quickly and blurted it out.
Lin Zhiqing immediately spoke up, "Uncle, Fourth Uncle, we hid this from Zheng Kuo because we were afraid the Jiang family would find out. It would be bad for those related to Zheng Kuo. Don't blame me."
After returning from Yongqing, Lin Zhiqing and Lin Yangyang told the other members of the Lin family the inside story of Lin Congrong's treason, but they did not tell them about Zheng Kuo.
Zheng Kuo is a person with wide-ranging connections.
If his news were to leak out accidentally, the Zhenyuan Marquis Mansion would definitely not let him go, nor would it let go of anyone who came into contact with him.
Yan Yu and others from Yongqing are bound to suffer disaster.
Lin Zhiqing sat in the chair, his mind racing.
Lin Yangyang told Lin Congli and Lin Congyan about how she first discovered Zheng Kuo, and then spoke again:
"Sister Qing, if you don't agree to Jiang Yunhe's request, have you thought of any specific solution?"
Lin Zhiqing raised her head and found that the Lin family members were looking at her with hopeful eyes.
She sighed slightly: "Although Shi'an has most likely fallen into Jiang Yunhe's hands, this is not completely certain."
"If we had agreed to it at the beginning, we would have been at a disadvantage."
"But you also said it's an 80% chance. What if we hesitate and Jiang Yunhe turns ruthless and starts targeting Shi'an?" Lin Yangyang spread his hands.
"No." Lin Zhiqing shook his head:
"Do you know the game of cockfighting?"
"What, what chicken? Why are you suddenly talking about food?" Lin Yangyang thought she had misheard and asked again.
Lin Congli and Lin Congyan also stared at Lin Zhiqing with confusion.
"It's not for eating." Lin Zhiqing shook his head. "The cockfighting game is also called the chicken game."
At the same time, cockfighting game is also one of the classic cases in game theory.
When two fighting cocks of equal strength meet, if the first fighting cock retreats but the second fighting cock does not, then the second fighting cock wins.
Otherwise, the first fighting cock wins.
If both fighting cocks retreat at the same time, then the game is a draw.
If two fighting cocks move forward at the same time, both will suffer losses.
After explaining the cockfighting game and making sure everyone understood, Lin Zhiqing began to ask questions:
"Do you know now who the two fighting cocks are?"
"You, and Jiang Yunhe!" Lin Yangyang was the first to speak, then scratched his head: "But what does this have to do with saving Shi'an?"
Lin Congyan was a civil servant after all, and he saw things more clearly than Lin Yangyang. He spoke tentatively:
"Are you guys secretly competing with each other now, or playing a game?"
"That's right." Lin Zhiqing nodded: "It's just a game."
