These words directly put Zhang Xiaowu to death.

Feng Huaijin was convicted of adultery and treason by the emperor himself. Anyone who had anything to do with him was either imprisoned, exiled, or executed.

With just a few words, Meng Liang had already forced Zhang Xiaowu onto a path that would cause him to be suspected by the emperor.

The officers headed by Zhang Xiaowu were very worried when they heard that their boss was slandered, and they all came to Zhang Xiaowu's defense.

When Meng Liang's officers heard Zhang Xiaowu's officers' explanation, they naturally would not miss the opportunity to add fuel to the fire and add insult to injury. At this moment, they were no longer in a hurry to find Feng Jiuyan, but joined the camp and started to curse at the other side.

The scene was very lively.

"Master Meng, how can you slander our master?"

"That's right. Our Lord's loyalty to the Emperor is clear to all. How can you wrongly accuse a good man?"

"That's right, our master didn't take special care of Feng Jiuyan on the way. If our master is really Feng Huaijin's old subordinate, shouldn't he take special care of Feng Jiuyan? But did our master do that? No! He even didn't give food rations to the second and third branches of the Feng family!"

Feng Zirou was enjoying the play when she was suddenly called by the officials. She was a little stunned.

What? Feng Huaijin is from the first wife's family, so why should they target the first wife's family? Why should they target the second and third wives? Why not give them steamed bread? Did the officials make a mistake?

No matter how sharp the explosion in Feng Zirou's heart was, other people would not care about her reaction at all.

"Sir..." Feng Zirou spoke pitifully, trying to divert the resentment of the two officials towards the Dafang family, but she miscalculated and got no response from anyone, not even a glance.

Who would treasure a discarded chess piece?

It was just that Feng Zirou didn't see clearly her current situation.

Meng Liang's men listened to each of his words and retorted, "Humph, who knows if you are just trying to cover up something! We didn't treat Feng Jiuyan specially, and it was only for this moment today, just to let Feng Jiuyan go!"

"you!!!"

Seeing Zhang Xiaowu's men choked to death, Meng Liang felt refreshed. The foul air that had gathered in his chest dissipated a lot.

He let out a light breath, and when he glanced at Zhang Xiaowu's icy face which hadn't changed at all, he became furious again.

Humph, he's still pretending when he's about to die! He wants to see how long this loser can keep pretending to be cool!

Before Zhang Xiaowu could respond, Zhang Chong, who had just finished eating his steamed bun, took over the conversation and angrily scolded Meng Liang.

The corner of his mouth curled up to the right, and he bowed to Meng Liang and his men with both hands, and said with a smile, "Master Meng, you can eat whatever you want, but you can't say anything you want. You keep saying that our master deliberately let Feng Jiuyan go, but do you have any evidence?"

It has to be said that Zhang Chong knows how to use courtesy before force.

"Evidence? Isn't the fact that Feng Jiuyan is missing right now the best evidence?"

Zhang Chong said with a fake smile, "Master Meng, that's not what you said. Feng Jiuyan is missing, so she might have gone deep into the forest to look for vines to make straw hats. How can you slander her with empty words?"

"You want evidence, right? Okay, Feng Zirou, you come and tell them what you saw."

At this moment, Meng Liang no longer cared about being gentle with women. His own face and overthrowing Zhang Xiaowu were the most important things. He roughly pulled Feng Zirou, who was standing next to the tree trunk, in front of Zhang Xiaowu.

Feng Zirou, who was so engrossed in watching the show, had no idea that the turmoil would affect her. She was completely unprepared and was pulled by Meng Liang, causing her to stagger. She fell to her knees on the ground with her head down, and bowed deeply to Zhang Xiaowu and the others.

"Ah!!! Pah pah pah." Feng Zirou spat out the dirt in her mouth.

Why did she feel that the dirt in her mouth smelled like urine? ? ?

Zhang Chong laughed unkindly, "Hahaha, Lord Meng, you feel guilty, so you come to kowtow and admit your mistake first?"

"Hmph!" Meng Liang groaned, his face turning pale and blue.

What a waste, she made him so embarrassed. She, Feng Zirou, had better pray that Feng Jiuyan really escaped, otherwise he would never let this bitch off easily, Meng Liang thought.

Suppressing his anger, Meng Liang lightly kicked Feng Zirou with the tip of his shoe.

"Tell us what you saw. Don't let others slander us and wrongly accuse them."

Feng Zirou raised her head pitifully, her eyes slightly red with tears about to fall, a few strands of hair scattered messily on her fair cheeks. Just looking at this, everyone would have to sigh, what a picture of a fragile beauty.

However, the circle of shit-yellow dirt around the corners of her mouth and the faint smell of urine in the air scared everyone so much that they took a few steps back.

Feng Zirou's face turned pale. She waited and waited, but no man showed any sympathy for her and wanted to help her up. Her hatred for Feng Jiuyan deepened.

She got up from the ground, opened her lips and said softly, "My Lords, I did see elder sister... no, Feng Jiuyan walking in this direction. Out of curiosity, I followed her from a distance.

She was indeed looking for something at first, but unexpectedly, she walked faster and faster, looking very flustered. I guessed that Feng Jiuyan might have escaped, so I turned back to find Lord Meng to report the matter.

The adults also knew what happened next. Lord Meng and a group of officers searched the area but could not find any trace of Feng Jiuyan. If not running away, what else could it be? "

In fact, Feng Zirou had never followed Feng Jiuyan, this was all her fabrication. She just saw Feng Jiuyan walking in this direction, so she immediately reported the matter to Meng Liang.

She dared to say that Feng Jiuyan had escaped for two reasons.

First, she herself wanted to escape. She didn't believe that Feng Jiuyan could endure these terrible days and didn't want to escape.

Second, the officials searched a large area of ​​forests but could not find Feng Jiuyan.

Therefore, she dared to conclude that Feng Jiuyan had definitely escaped.

Zhang Chong grinned. How much did this woman hate Feng Jiuyan? She even lied to put Feng Jiuyan to death.

Zhang Chong's smile deepened a little, and he said, "In this case, let's make a bet.

If Feng Jiuyan can show up at the appointed time, then Master Meng must admit his mistake to our master in front of all the officials and prisoners, and say to our master, 'Grandpa, I was wrong', how about that?"

Meng Liang smiled with determination, "Okay. But if Feng Jiuyan doesn't show up at the appointed time and runs away, I will report the matter to the court, and Lord Zhang will bear all the responsibility for today's incident. How do you think?"

Oh, they didn't know the content of the memorial anyway. Then, he could hint in the content of the memorial that Zhang Xiaowu and Feng Huaijin were related.

Everyone looked at Zhang Xiaowu. As long as Zhang Xiaowu nodded, the bet would take effect.

As expected, Zhang Xiaowu nodded his chin slightly to indicate his agreement to the bet.
