Chapter 571: The Qi Family is Arrested and Blames Each Other
The soft-hearted Chen Afu and his wife's eyes immediately turned red, and they actually felt a bit of trust in their hearts.
If Chen Enke really had no choice, then perhaps...
"Enko, are you serious? Did they force you?"
Zhang Yuxiu asked expectantly, her voice trembling.
Chen Ning felt something in his heart and looked even more miserable and painful.
"Mom, everything I said is true. How could I possibly abandon my parents? How could I possibly abandon my wife and children?"
"Mom, don't you understand your son's character? He was really forced into this."
But as soon as he finished speaking, he was exposed by a crisp voice.
"Grandma, don't be fooled by him. He's lying. Listen to his heartbeat if you don't believe me."
Chen Xingyue glared at Chen Ning, looking at him as if he were trash, with an expression of extreme disgust on her little face.
Zhang Yuxiu's heart, which had been half softened, gradually recovered.
She has now reached the third level of Qi Refining, so she can naturally hear Chen Ning's heartbeat, which is indeed very different from that of ordinary people.
She felt extremely disappointed when she thought that she was full of expectations, but Chen Enke was still deceiving her at this time.
Chen Afu even closed his eyes, wiped away his tears, and didn't want to look at it any more.
"Xingyue, you are Xingyue, right? I didn't expect you to be this big already."
Chen Ning panicked when he heard this. He suddenly remembered that he had seen Chen Xingyue before, but he didn't expect that she was his daughter.
"Everything Dad said is true. How could Dad lie to you? Xingyue, Dad has never forgotten you."
Chen Xingyue was furious: "Shut up! What qualifications do you, a beast, have to be my father?"
"If you dare to talk nonsense again, I will cut off your tongue!"
Chen Ning was shocked by her. He never expected that such a beautiful and lovely girl could have such a strong evil spirit.
Then Xiao Ying said, "Since you said that the Qi family forced you, then bring Qi Yuping and Qi Yawei in."
"I……"
Chen Ning's face turned pale again. He didn't expect that Xiao Ying would bring the Qi family with him.
Not long after, Qi Yuping and his daughter were brought in and knelt beside him with heavy expressions.
"Your Highness, your ...
The father and daughter saluted and greeted each other in unison, feeling a sense of uneasiness in their hearts.
When they woke up and found themselves in the Imperial Master's Mansion, they knew they were doomed.
"Qi Yuping, Qi Yawei."
Xiao Ying didn't give the two of them time to react and went straight to the point.
"Chen Ning accused you, saying that you forced him back then, and Qi Yawei even used her beauty to seduce him and got him drunk and had sex with him."
"For this reason, he had no choice but to abandon his wife and parents and marry into the Qi family."
"What do you say to this?"
The Qi family father and daughter became furious upon hearing this, and glared at Chen Ning fiercely, wishing they could tear off a piece of their flesh.
Qi Yawei's face turned red, feeling embarrassed and ashamed.
"Chen Ning, how dare you say such things? It's obvious that you are coveting my beauty and the power and wealth of my Qi family!"
"You even said your wife is just an ignorant country woman, not even half as good as me."
"Okay, now that the truth has been exposed, you want to put the blame on me and the Qi family? You're dreaming!"
Qi Yuping also sneered: "Back then, I took a fancy to you and wanted you to marry into my family, but I gave up after you rejected me."
"Who would have thought that upon accidentally meeting my daughter Yawei, you would be so captivated by her lust that you would offer to marry into my Qi family."
"Now you're actually confusing right and wrong and turning the tables. Chen Ning, how could I have raised someone as heartless and ruthless as you?"
Chen Ning was so angry that he was shaking. This old guy was the one who was confusing right and wrong and putting the blame on others.
It was obvious that Qi Yuping asked Qi Yawei to seduce him, and he couldn't resist Qi Yawei's gentle offensive, so he compromised.
This old guy actually wants to get away with it cleanly, forget it!
"I may have abandoned my wife and children, but don't even think about distancing yourself from the matter! You knew I had a family, so why did you agree to let me marry into your family?"
Qi Yuping snorted, "Nonsense! I didn't know you had a family, otherwise I wouldn't have let you marry into my family."
This matter must not be admitted, otherwise he would be breaking the law knowingly and deceiving the emperor.
Qi Yawei didn't mention this either. Since Chen Ning had framed her like that, she naturally wouldn't help Chen Ning.
If she could clear herself of any involvement, she would still be the eldest daughter of the Qi family.
If you help Chen Ning, you will be courting death.
Husband and wife are birds of the same forest, but when disaster strikes, they fly away separately.
Chen Ning was the one who wronged her first, so don't blame her for being ruthless.
"Chen Ning, if I knew you had a wife and children, how could I have ever been interested in you? You really overestimate yourself."
Watching the three people fighting each other, Xiao Ying thought it was very exciting. Did he think that he could clear himself of the charges this way?
Chen Ning was so angry that he went crazy, and his eyes suddenly became gloomy.
"Dad, if you insist on doing this, don't blame me for being ruthless."
"My time in the Qi family over the years wasn't in vain. I've kept evidence of everything you've done!"
He had been on guard against Qi Yuping's move for a long time, so how could he not be prepared at all?
Qi Yuping wants to put the blame on him, so don't blame him for exposing his true identity.
Qi Yuping's expression changed as expected, and he was filled with inexplicable horror.
As the Minister of Rites, he is not very clean, or rather, there are few clean officials in the court.
He didn't know what evidence Chen Ning had left for him. Even if there was only one piece, he might not be able to continue to serve as the Shangshu.
"He's truly a heartless, ungrateful person who has been deliberately framing me for a long time!"
"Hehe... Whether it's a false accusation or not, I believe the court will investigate it."
Chen Ning's eyes were filled with madness. He was going to die anyway, so he would take Qi Yuping with him.
"Dad, let's not talk about the distant past, let's just talk about September of the year before last. You haven't forgotten it, right?"
Hearing this, Qi Yuping's face changed again and again, and he wanted to cover Chen Ning's mouth to stop him from speaking.
But he couldn't move at all and could only listen to Chen Ning continue talking.
"You gave me a full 100,000 taels of silver and asked me to find some assassins to kill my wife and children."
"It's a pity that the Dark Night Pavilion didn't accept the order at all. In desperation, you asked me to hire a few martial arts masters."
"But those martial arts masters never came back, and that's when you got anxious."
When these words were spoken, everyone in the room was shocked.
Even Xiao Ying, the emperor and the three officials looked incredulous.
What did Chen Ning say? They actually hired a killer to kill their wife and children?
Is this something a human can do?!
Chen Afu's family was also shocked. The last trace of pity that remained in their hearts disappeared completely, leaving only indifference and hatred.
Needless to say, Chen Xinghai and the other three wished they could cut him into pieces.
Xiao Ying remembered that he had indeed encountered an assassination attempt in September of the previous year.
The five people were also subdued by her, namely Xiao Lao San, Xiao Junxue and others.
I felt strange at the time and didn't know who sent them. I didn't expect it to be Qi Yuping and Chen Ning.
It seems that Chen Ning wanted to get rid of her at that time. It was probably because of the high-yield crops incident that the emperor granted her an imperial decree, which made him feel threatened.
"You, you are talking nonsense! Nonsense!"
Qi Yuping was suddenly shocked. He didn't expect that Chen Ning was really crazy and even dared to reveal this matter.
Chen Ning just sneered with satisfaction. He felt very happy when he saw Qi Yuping getting anxious.
"Outrageous! How dare you!" Suddenly, the emperor could not help but shout, "As an official appointed by the imperial court, you actually hired someone to kill someone, and the person who killed him was your own wife and child!"
"Qi Yuping, Chen Ning, do you admit your guilt?"
