The deceased was not of high status, but he was enough to trigger the fear of all the imprisoned dandies.
Even the families behind them became even more anxious. No one wanted to see their children and grandchildren die in prison for no apparent reason.
The most anxious among them was Niuhulu Gadu, who was Alinga's cousin but two years older than Alinga.
Gadu was the deputy governor of the Bordered Yellow Banner Mongolian Army and had considerable say in the Niuhuru clan. His second son, Nielfen, was also affected by the case and is now imprisoned in the Ministry of Justice. Gadu went to Alinga for help several times but failed to achieve his goal.
Gadu has few sons to raise, and Neilfen is the eldest one. The others are not yet adults, and he doesn't know what their future will be like. Naturally, he is unwilling to give up Neilfen easily.
Just when he was jumping up and down and preparing to unite the parents of all the captured playboys and go to the palace to plead for mercy, his subordinate, the lieutenant, blocked him in the mansion.
"grown ups……"
Gadu was about to go out, but when he saw the leader, his expression did not ease at all.
"Nazig? Why are you here? Did something happen in the army?"
"It's not a military matter..."
Nejig's expression wrinkled together, and he was still a little hesitant.
He was considering whether to tell Gadu the news. If the Tong family found out about this, he, a mere lieutenant, would be at the mercy of others...
Karma was stunned.
"Why is that?"
Najig gritted his teeth and finally decided to tell Gadu the news.
"General, this is not the place to talk..."
"I have something important to attend to. If you have anything else, wait until I come back to discuss it."
As he spoke, he was about to walk out of the house.
"Wait a minute, General!"
Seeing this, Najige became anxious and ignored the etiquette. He approached Gadu and lowered his voice and said,
"I have received some news concerning the Second Master."
Gadu paused.
"really!"
When it comes to his disappointing son, he dare not be careless in the slightest.
Najige nodded solemnly to Gadu, and Gadu took him to the study.
After driving the servants out, Najige said directly without waiting for Gadu to ask,
"General, the Second Young Master has suffered an unprovoked disaster this time. It was Tong Banchao who instigated the people to beat the drum to report the incident!"
Hearing the three words "Tong Banchao", Gaduxia was surprised for a moment, but quickly refuted.
"Tong Guowei? How is that possible? I have never offended him..."
"You didn't offend him, but Prince Lian did!"
"What does that have to do with me?"
Gadu had been in the army for a long time and had no idea what Nejig meant.
Nejig had no choice but to break the matter down and explain it clearly to Gadu.
"Do you still remember that more than half a month ago, Shun Anyan was reduced to a penniless person by the Emperor? Although we think he deserved it for plotting against Hua Qi to anger Prince An to death, would Tong Guowei think so?"
"Shun Anyan was once a leading figure of the younger generation, but now he's completely ruined. Can Tong Guowei swallow this so easily?"
"Shun Anyan is a member of Prince Zhi's faction, and Prince Zhi is hostile to Prince Lian. Your Niuhulu family has already expressed its support for Prince Lian several years ago..."
It was not until this moment that Gadu realized that what Nejig said might be true.
His face darkened and he looked at Nezig suspiciously.
"How do you know this?"
Where did Nejige know such a secret matter? Could it be that he wanted to make enemies between him and the Tong family?
Nejige was stunned when he heard this, then he smiled bitterly. As a superior, he finally showed his smartness for once, but it was used to doubt his own people. He really didn't know how to comment on this.
"Have you forgotten that my brother is from the Ministry of Civil Affairs?"
"Oh...if you hadn't told me, I would have forgotten!"
Gadu suddenly understood, and all the doubts in his heart disappeared. He then raised his hand and patted Nejig's shoulder.
"I will remember this great favor. Once my son is safely released from the Ministry of Justice prison, I will reward him handsomely!"
"This is what I should do..."
After a few polite words, Gadu sent Nejige away and went to find someone for help.
Although Gadu has a rough temper, this time since it involves his son, he has no choice but to act cautiously.
He first went to find the parents of the other dudes, spread the reasons why they were in jail, and then went to find Alinga.
When Alinga heard that it was Gadu who came, his face immediately fell.
It's the same shitty things every day. Is he unwilling to help?
He went to ask the emperor for help, but it was of no use. This nephew really didn't know anything.
"Send him away!"
The housekeeper responded and was about to turn around to negotiate with Gadu. However, he had just taken a few steps when a few noises came from outside the courtyard.
"Uncle! Uncle! I have something important to discuss with you!"
The butler's steps suddenly froze.
"Master, this..."
Alinga slapped the table and said angrily,
"This bastard, he's thinking of forcing his way in now? Has he learned all the rules?"
"Bring him in!"
Soon, four or five servants escorted Gadu into the courtyard. Alinga stood under the corridor with a gloomy face, staring at him.
Gadu also knew that he shouldn't force his way in, so he smiled awkwardly and saluted Alinga.
"Nephew meets uncle."
Alinga scolded,
"You still know that I'm your cousin? What do you want to do? If I pursue this, you'll have to lie down and leave today!"
"Uncle, don't be angry. I'm looking for you for something urgent. It concerns Prince Lian..."
Alinga scoffed.
"Come on, don't think that I don't know what you're up to. You're thinking of dragging the Duke into this to save your disappointing son. You've made a wrong calculation!"
"Get lost!"
Alinga waved his hand and signaled his servants to drive Gadu out. However, the four servants in the mansion were as thin as chickens and could not push Gadu away at all.
"Whether it's true or not, your uncle can only tell after listening to it. If you don't listen, your nephew won't leave today..."
"you!"
Alinga looked at this scoundrel, the veins on his forehead jumped, and after taking a few deep breaths, he finally gritted his teeth and said,
"Let him go! If you dare to fool me today, I'll have plenty of ways to deal with you!"
Alinga drove the servants out of the yard and left Gadu alone. Gadu then repeated Nejig's words to Alinga word for word.
Alinga's brain was much more flexible than Gadu's. When Gadu was halfway through his speech, he was almost certain that what Gadu said was true.
He did not dare to delay and quickly ordered his servants to prepare the carriage and horses, and took Gadu straight to Prince Lian's mansion.
