Liu Zhen didn't understand why, so he had to answer truthfully.
"This man is cunning and cannot be trusted; he is weak-willed and cannot be relied upon; his intentions are impure and he cannot be reused! Master Feng, do you want to continue using him? Think twice."
He Lin gave Liu Zhen a thumbs up and praised
"As expected, Patriarch Liu has a good eye for character. This man is despicable and cunning, and too personal. He is indeed not a good person. However, he has some good qualities, which are rare. If possible, I really don't want to kill him."
"Oh? What are those advantages? I haven't discovered them yet!"
"Patriarch Liu has never interacted with this man, so he naturally doesn't know him. Although he's despicable, he's talented. He has an excellent memory and knows every household in Qingshan Town and Wancheng like the back of his hand."
"Oh, this is indeed a talent."
"This man's observation skills are astonishing. He can read people's expressions and is extremely skilled at understanding people's hearts. He's a true expert. With him around, you don't need to say much; just a glance is all he needs for him to understand what you mean. He can grasp the true meaning of a single sentence without even having to spell it out. Do you think this is considered talent?"
"Oh, such talent is rare." Liu Zhen has the potential to be a supporting role in crosstalk, and immediately took over the conversation.
"Besides these two strengths, he has another. He is ruthless. To get things done, he will do whatever it takes. He will not give up until he achieves his goal."
"This is really... none of the above three are the right path. Master Feng, this person still needs to be used with caution!"
"Clan Leader Liu, do you know why I chose this person when I needed to kill time in the past few years, when I had no interest in cultivation and was extremely bored? Because this person is also very innovative when it comes to entertainment and always makes me laugh. Unfortunately, he has never been loyal to me and always has ulterior motives towards me. It really makes me helpless."
"Mr. Feng, the quarter of an hour is up." Liu Zhen didn't know what Li Feng was up to, he just reminded Li Feng that the time was up and he didn't want to play with Li Feng anymore.
"Oh, so soon?" He Lin stepped in and walked to Li Yan's side again and asked
"How about it, have you thought about it?"
"Sir, I, I——"
"Do you want to die or live?"
"I want to live—"
"Confess your accomplices and the people behind the scenes."
“I, I—”
"You actually still have a shred of loyalty, which is rare. Do you really think I know nothing about your affairs? Because you've served me for so many years, I'm letting you take the blame and make a contribution. Since you're unwilling to speak out, then I'll finally fulfill your loyalty. You don't have to tell me the name, just confirm whether the name I said is mine. If yes, nod your head, if not, shake your head. Do you understand?"
"Thank you, sir. Thank you for your help."
"Li Tan, isn't it?"
Li Yan nodded
"Li Gang?"
nod
"Li Ke."
…
nod
"Wei Huan."
nod
"Wei Liao."
nod
"Wei Xun."
Li Yan's face was numb, he looked at He Lin in horror and nodded.
"Wei Chong."
nod
"The final person behind the scenes is—Wei Hong! Is that correct?"
"Your Excellency is wise. All of us are included in this incident. No one is spared. Your Excellency is wise." Li Yan was filled with awe. His face was filled with the relief of having survived the catastrophe.
These people were all very hostile to him, and even had murderous intentions towards him. They were the third generation descendants of the Li and Wei families, and the only second generation descendant - Wei Hong.
This time it should be able to deter people, right?
He Lin returned to the table and sat down, saying to Li Lei
"Uncle, our Li family has been a noble family for less than ten years. This trend cannot continue. Please punish them severely."
Li Lei clenched his hands tightly in his sleeves. Wei Hong was his brother-in-law, and the Wei family was his die-hard supporter. Was he going to catch them all in one fell swoop?
"The sons of the Li family have betrayed the family. Please expel them from the family and demote them to tenant farmers, working on the family's land to atone for your sins."
"Can."
"Li Yan is guilty of the most serious crime..." He Lin hadn't finished speaking yet, "Master, please spare my life, Master, please spare my life!" Li Yan's howling sound interrupted He Lin's words. He Lin glanced at Li Yan, and Li Yan immediately stopped talking. He Lin continued
"Please demote him to a household slave, but since he has confessed, please assign him to be my attendant. I will not treat him harshly, as a reward for his revelation."
"Yes." These people's handling of the matter was very reasonable.
"The sons of the Wei clan, while attached to our Li clan, have maliciously harmed the family heir. This trend must not be allowed to continue. We must set an example and kill them as a warning to the rest of the affiliated clans. All other members of the Wei clan working for our clan will be dismissed and will never be employed again."
"But." Li Lei gritted his teeth and said this.
The elder who said he would keep an eye on Li Lei in Li Feng's courtyard came out and asked for his order.
"Li Qi has requested to be in charge of this matter. Everyone must be punished and an explanation must be given to the young master."
"Yes." Li Lei numbly confirmed the appointment.
"Since Uncle Qi wants to take charge of this matter, then do it well. I intend to establish the position of Supervisory Elder in the family, specifically to monitor the illegal activities of everyone in the family. If Uncle Qi does a good job this time, I will recommend you at the elders' meeting to take charge of this matter."
Li Qi chuckled and said, "Thank you, Master Feng, for your help." Then he went downstairs and rode away from Zuixianlou.
Li Lei did not comment on the matter. He just sat there numbly.
"Li Yan, please step back." He Lin raised his eyes and said to Li Yan
"Yes, sir." Li Yan felt relieved, let out a long breath, and retreated back to the center of the family members.
