"What happened?” Ling Zhang quickened his steps.

Yuwen Tong followed closely after and, with good eyesight, already got a clear view of what was happening.

There were four men and four women in costly raiment kneeling at the gate of Ling Mansion and kowtowing. They seemed to keep shouting something like, "Young master Ling, please let go of our son." The Ling Mansion's servants tried to drive them away, but this group of people still lingered around and wouldn't go. The servants couldn't drive them away by force but only prevented them from entering. Ling Zhang frowned when seeing the stalemate.

After approaching, Ling Zhang heard and saw who these people were.

"It's them," Ling Zhang sad with a scowl.

"Who are they?" Yuwen Tong asked.

Stolen from Royal Road, this story should be reported if encountered on Amazon.

"They are the parents of the four people who had conspired with Jia Yuanling to frame me. Jia Yuanling, the ringleader of the affair, was sentenced to exile; the four men, each of whom being punished differently, are now in the prison of the Prefecture Yamen," Ling Zhang said.

Their sentence had been announced for long ago. Why did their parents suddenly show up here at this time and act as disgusting rascals?

Ling Zhang walked over with a cold face, "Are you looking for me?"

As soon as Ling Zhang appeared, these people immediately surrounded him. As if some fresh meat thrown towards a pack of hungry wolves. Ling Mansion's servants quickly stood in front of Ling Zhang to prevent him from getting hurt.

These men knelt on the ground with a thud.

They cried, "Please give my son a break! My son was drunk; he wasn't in his right mind, which was why he did something shameless. Young master Ling, please put a word for my son and let Lord Tao show mercy!"

"Young master Ling, please! Please forgive my son! I’m willing to do anything for you!" Welcome to unlock the whole chapter 65 - Trouble at the Gate on Flying Lines.
