The conspiracy of the courtyard

Chapter 146: Reasons for Confession

Lu Zixuan gasped in pain and tried hard to pry his hand away.

"Are you crazy? I didn't kill your father, why are you hitting on me? If you have the guts, go find Lao Tong with a knife. You are such a coward.

I can tell from your wandering eyes that you must have been harmed by some crappy soul-stealing technique used by Lao Tong, just like my mom. Otherwise, why would you listen to him so much?

I've asked around, and I've learned that the easiest way to deal with this kind of evil magic is to try to cut off all contact with the person who casts the spell.

You must always be vigilant and not give him any chance to take advantage of you. And don't come to my mother again. I don't want her to be like you, unable to distinguish right from wrong and treating her enemies as benefactors."

Seeing that Zhao Jun's expression changed from complete disbelief to hesitation, Lu Zixuan decided to prove it with facts.

"Since you are still unmarried at your age, I will remind you of something.

Have you been lucky since childhood, whether it was going to school or joining the army, including making contributions in the team, everything was easy for you?

Look, I got it right again, didn't I? If I'm not mistaken, your love life has been very bumpy, right?

Is it true that if you have an affair with a girl, you will either be transferred away or disappear without a trace?"

Lu Zixuan put on an expression that showed he had seen through everything, and continued in a confident tone:

“This is the reason why you’ve been under surveillance all this time, it must be Old Tong’s doing.

The method he used was very simple. He would praise his enemy highly and make him think that he had been excellent since he was a child. Then the enemy would become full of self-confidence, proud and complacent, and look down on others.

Then Lao Tong arranged for people to set up various difficulties for the enemy on his way to find a wife, to ruin his good deeds, to undermine his confidence, to make him feel a huge psychological gap and lose the courage to live.

Finally, Lao Tong came out to be a good guy again, calming down the emotions and introducing a wife to him. In this way, wouldn't the enemy be grateful to him and do what he said?

No one can escape such a conspiracy, and you yourself are the best example.

But you don't have to be too sad, you are not the first one, you can go and ask around.

There used to be a man named Zhang Jun in the district government. He was a very nice and generous person. He always invited everyone in the street office to dinner.

It was because Lao Tong had a grudge against his family that he carefully designed for his father to break his legs and then threw him to his hometown in the remote mountain area. It was really tragic.

Later, he still felt unsatisfied and was afraid of retaliation, so he asked someone to move all his family members out of the city.

If you go to the street office and ask anyone, they will know the story, but they don’t know it was Lao Tong who did it, and even if they do, they wouldn’t dare to say it.

Old Tong is notoriously vicious and cunning, with a cruel heart and ruthless hands. Who dares to offend him?

Besides, he has so many military merits, so he can find any excuse to ruin someone.

Don't say that I told you these words, I just feel a little sympathetic towards you.

It is so sad to be played around by enemies and be helpless. "

When Zhao Jun saw Lu Zixuan was about to leave, he immediately stopped him and promised him.

"Wait a minute, I promise you that I will never harass you again. Can you tell me about Lao Tong? I'm not familiar with him. My mother forced me to come here."

Seeing that Zhao Jun's expression did not seem fake, Lu Zixuan asked:

"You came to Sijiucheng not just for a blind date, right? Otherwise you wouldn't have stayed for so long. Are you looking for your father? Then you should ask Lao Tong, he should know."

Zhao Jun answered somewhat frustratedly.

“I asked him about it, and he said my father had died and his body had not been found. He also refused to tell me his name.

Whenever I asked about my father, my mother would just say that he was probably gone and wouldn't say anything else.

The reason I came to Sijiucheng this time is because my mother is seriously ill and the doctor said she doesn’t have much time left.

She ordered me to come to the old city to find my cousin and bring home the wife he had chosen for me.

My cousin told me that your mother gave birth to you because she was deceived when she was young, and he also said that he had a way to make you stay in Beijing and not leave with us.

I felt a little sorry and didn't want to separate you and your son, so I took the initiative and asked your mother to ask for your opinion.

When my cousin found out, he got furious and told me to stop interfering and just wait for him to bring his wife home.

The more I thought about it, the more I felt that there was something fishy going on, so I went out and found out about the relationship between you and my uncle.

I asked many people in the street office, and they all said that you had a very good relationship. He taught you everything he knew, and even arranged your mother's job for you.

I can't understand, since you have such a good relationship, why did my uncle have to separate you and your mother, and live in two different places? So I came to find you and want to find out the truth.

I don't believe everything you said. I know you want to drive a wedge between us. Can you tell me why you hate him so much?"

Lu Zixuan nodded in acknowledgement and explained the reason.

“I do want to sow discord between you, so let me tell you about our experience.

I was only a few months old when my mother went to work at the street office. At first she was relatively normal, but after a few months on the job, she began to make frequent mistakes. She either misremembered what others had told her to do, or forgot what she had learned.

I always thought that she was not suitable for working in the street office until she was transferred to work at the grain station a few years ago, when she stopped making mistakes.

I have loved chatting with Lao Tong since I was a child. He has indeed taught me a lot, including how to identify conspiracies and see through human nature.

In my eyes, there is no good person in this world except my mother, only dirty tricks and dirty means. This is what Lao Tong taught me.

I have always been proud of myself for being able to see through other people's plots, until a while ago when my mother told me that Lao Tong introduced her to a man, who was his nephew. Then I began to doubt it.

Because Lao Tong said that he didn't have any relatives, I felt that Lao Tong might be hiding something from me, so I asked someone to investigate.

After investigation, we found that my mother and I had been caught in an elaborate trap.

Since my mother started working, no less than 20 men have coveted her. At that time, we thought it was because my mother was too charming.

But after asking carefully, I found out that it was all planned by Old Tong. He asked someone to tell those people that there was a beautiful woman in the street office that was hard to come by in a thousand years. Once missed, it would be a lifelong regret.

My mother made frequent mistakes at work. It was this old bastard who hypnotized her and made her confused all day long.

What I learned was all the darkest. Whose kid would stare at the sky all day, thinking about how to play a prank on others?

He is trying to destroy us. Do you think I shouldn't hate him? Should I cut him into pieces?

Now I understand. His target is not us at all, but you. He wants to make your family extinct.

He knows that I don't like to depend on others, so he is sure that I will not go with you."
