Confiscated my property and exiled me, I emptied the emperor's old nest to escape famine
Chapter 39: Damned by God
Ye Fei felt that the time had come.
She hid in the crowd and shouted in a low voice: "It must be that someone in the Li Mansion has done many evil things and is being punished by God!"
"They are being punished by God. God is going to punish the Li family!"
"Who else but God could do such a thing?"
Oh my God, I am punished by God!
The common people who were watching were already feeling uneasy about the strange things that were happening in Li's mansion.
Now after hearing Ye Fei's words, all of them involuntarily retreated, fearing that they would be punished by heaven if they had any connection with the Li Mansion.
"Mr. Li, the things going on in your house are really strange."
"We will report this matter first, and we will inform you immediately if there is any progress."
"If you have any clues, please report to the government office in time."
"It's getting late now, so we won't disturb you guys to rest."
After weighing the pros and cons again and again, the official politely greeted Li Tiangui and ran away with his men.
The speed was so fast that it seemed as if there was a ghost chasing them.
Li Tiangui, Li Tai, Liu and others had not yet figured out what was happening in the Li Mansion before they had to watch the government officials come and go quickly.
"Go quickly, go quickly..."
"Don't ever come to this place again."
"Not to mention this place, even the people and shops in Li's mansion should keep their distance from them."
The common people who were watching Li's mansion also scattered like birds and beasts when they saw the officials leaving so quickly.
They fled from Li's house as if they were avoiding the plague.
However, the three words "punished by heaven" have been firmly nailed to the people of Li Mansion.
The news about the Li Mansion soon spread throughout Liangcheng.
Whether it was the Liangcheng officials who had treated the Li Mansion with courtesy in the past, or the common people who were afraid and hated the Li Mansion, they all kept their distance from the changes in the Li Mansion.
The world is hot and cold.
This has always been the case, whether in ancient times or modern times.
Ye Fei was not surprised at all by everyone's reactions.
And this was just the beginning of her punishment for Li Tai.
Li Tiangui has been struggling in Liangcheng for decades and is the first person to regain his sanity.
He looked unfocused at the empty Li Mansion, the bewildered Li Tai, Liu and other family members, and the bewildered servants, and then he shouted in a trembling voice:
"Butler, butler!"
The housekeeper of the Li Mansion crawled over with trembling legs: "Master, what do you want?"
Li Tiangui closed his eyes and took a deep breath before continuing, "Go and immediately count and sell all the shops and houses of the Li Mansion in Liangcheng."
The housekeeper of the Li Mansion was shocked: "Now?"
"Yes, right now."
"The sooner the better. You should go and supervise it yourself now."
"As long as someone takes over, the price can be negotiated."
Li Tiangui covered his violently beating chest and made a firm decision.
The Li family's housekeeper's mind went blank.
He didn't understand why Li Tiangui did this, but he still did it in a daze.
When Ye Fei heard Li Tiangui's words and looked at the back of Li's housekeeper, a meaningful smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.
Although Li Tai and Liu were still in fear and shock, they finally reacted after hearing Li Tiangui's words.
"Master, master, what do you mean?"
"Are you planning to sell your property?"
Liu was used to living a luxurious life, and now she felt even more uneasy after hearing what Li Tiangui said.
Li Tai also looked at Li Tiangui in confusion: "Dad?"
"Why do you want to sell all the shops and houses?"
"If we sell everything, where will we go?"
"Liangcheng is the foundation of our Li family."
"Shouldn't we investigate the truth in Liangcheng and find out the real culprit behind this?"
Li Tai's face turned pale as he shouted frantically, "Dad, you don't believe in the words of God's punishment, do you?"
"I tell you, I don't believe it."
"I never believe that there are people who are condemned by God."
"If God really has eyes, there would be no bad people in this world."
"There is no such thing as good people dying young and evil people leaving their mark for thousands of years in this world."
Li Tiangui's already restless heart became even more upset.
He shouted at Li Taida: "Shut up!"
"It's all your fault. It must be you, the unfilial son!"
"The changes in the Li Mansion must have been caused by you. It must be because you did something too extreme today."
When Liu heard this, she immediately started to make a scene to defend Li Tai.
But a horrified voice once again attracted the attention of everyone in the Li Mansion: "Master, Master!"
"Oh no, oh no, something terrible has happened!"
Li Tiangui's whole body was shaking.
He looked at the servant and forced himself to calmly ask: "What's wrong? What happened?"
The servant looked at Li Tiangui with horror on his face: "Master, when the butler... the butler went to count the shops and houses, all the shops and houses disappeared at once."
"It's gone, it's gone, all gone!"
The servant seemed to have seen the most horrible thing in the world.
He muttered to himself in a trance: "It must be a punishment from heaven... Yes, what those people said is true, the Li family must have been punished by heaven."
The servant's words made the already anxious Li Tiangui, Liu and other people in the Li Mansion even worse.
If the strange changes in the Li Mansion made some of them half-believe and half-doubt the theory that they were being punished by heaven.
Now, the servant's words made them completely believe that the Li family was really punished by God.
The servants of the Li Mansion unconsciously began to distance themselves from the masters of the Li Mansion, such as Li Tiangui, Li Tai and Liu.
No matter whether the servants had signed a death contract or a living contract, they had already started thinking about escaping.
Li Tiangui was still somewhat rational, but after hearing the report from the servant, he immediately spat out a mouthful of blood.
"master!"
"father!"
Li Tai and Liu anxiously supported Li Tiangui.
"Dad, don't worry, there's still time."
"Our Li family is the richest in Liangcheng, and our family businesses are countless."
"It's okay, we can make a comeback..."
Li Tai tried his best to comfort Li Tiangui.
Li Tiangui pointed at Li Tai with a trembling hand: "You...you...a rebellious son, a rebellious son!"
"From now on...from now on, don't even think about getting even a tael of silver from home!"
Li Tai retorted unconvincedly: "Dad, please stop saying such things."
"The servant just said it clearly. Let's leave Liangcheng as soon as possible."
Li Tiangui looked at Li Tai, his chest rising and falling violently: "Fortunately... Fortunately, I still have... still have..."
When Li Tai, Liu and others heard this, they looked at Li Tiangui with bright eyes: "Secret room?"
But when the servant who was assigned to the secret room came back, Li Tiangui spat out a mouthful of black blood again: "What did you say?"
"empty?"
"How come it's empty?"
"No way, no way!"
"Tell me, did you take advantage of the opportunity to embezzle the things in the secret room?"
"I am the only one who knows what is in the secret room. How could it be empty?"
"That's...that's all the wealth of our Li Mansion..."
Li Tiangui looked at the servant with murderous eyes.
If Li Tiangui still had hope for the future of the Li Mansion at the beginning, then the servant's words now completely extinguished his hope.
