Qian Yumei looked at Ji Fenglin with a pale face, crawled to his side and begged: "Don't divorce me, except for this one, you can punish me in any way you want."
Fight for yourself first, as long as you pass this level, you can slowly plan for the rest. Qian Yufeng has already divorced Ji Fenglin, and no matter how good she is, she will not return to Chengguo Mansion.
If Ji Fenglin wanted to vent his anger, she would suffer for a few months.
"Really?" Ji Fenglin sneered, "Then you can either ask to leave or commit suicide! I'll give you two options, which one you choose is up to you."
Yuanshi was so angry that her face was distorted: "Ji Fenglin! What kind of road is this? Didn't Qian Yufeng live? Didn't she come back safely? I heard that she even brought back a bastard?"
"How dare you!" Ji Fenglin slammed his fist on the table with a loud bang. "Yuanshi! Are you talking sensible words? Yufeng is not dead, she is lucky.
Su'er is not a bastard, he is the legitimate son of my Chengguo Mansion. Su'er looks like my father, the grandfather and grandson are at least 80% similar.
Yuanshi! My Lord knows why you dislike Yufeng so much, because you killed her mother.
"What did you say?"
Hai Xinhou was about to scold Ji Fenglin for being unruly, yelling and banging the table in his house. But when he heard that Yuan Shi had killed his first wife, he didn't care about anything else and immediately questioned her.
"Did Yuan Shi kill Lu Shi? Do you have any evidence for what you said?"
Yuanshi's heart was like a tsunami. She lowered her head and thought carefully. The midwife had left long ago, and it was impossible for Ji Fenglin to find anyone to confront her.
Qian Yumei looked at Yuan Shi in disbelief, then looked at Ji Fenglin, and her mind became even more confused. Wasn't this about her? How did it get to her mother again?
"Of course." Ji Fenglin shouted outside, "Bring a midwife."
Yuan Shi's legs went weak when she heard this, and she almost fell to her knees. Even if Hai Xinhou was stupid, he could see the fear, panic and anxiety in her eyes.
It seems that Ji Fenglin was right. Yuan Shi was not as innocent as she seemed. She had a murder on her hands, and the victim was his ex-wife.
Although Lu was a merchant's daughter of low status, she was well-educated, gentle and virtuous. She was filial to her parents-in-law, friendly to her sisters-in-law, and kind to her younger brothers and sisters.
More importantly, the Lu family used real money to fill the big hole in the Haixin Marquis Mansion. This is the favor that the Qian family owed to the Lu family.
Her mother had always praised her. When Lu Shi got into trouble, her mother was very sad for a long time. Later, when Yuan Shi came into the family, her mother never praised her at all. She just kept Yufeng by her side and taught her carefully.
The midwife was brought up and knelt on the ground trembling with fear, with her head lowered, not daring to speak.
Hai Xinhou looked at the old woman with gray hair and a frosted face and asked sternly, "Who are you? What's your name? What do you do? Tell me everything you know."
“Yes!” The old woman knelt on the ground, crying bitterly, “I am Wang, a commoner, a midwife, and I have been walking around the mansions of the big families in the capital for many years.
Back then, the woman's son was lured into a gambling house and lost 1,000 taels of silver. The woman was anxious to raise money to pay off her son's gambling debts, and she prayed to gods and Buddhas everywhere. One day, someone suddenly found the woman and was willing to help her pay off the debt.
I was extremely grateful, but that person put forward a condition: when I was delivering the baby for the wife of the Marquis of Haixin, I caused a difficult labor and two deaths."
"What?" Hai Xinhou looked at the midwife and asked anxiously, "Who ordered you to do this?"
"It's a maid from the Earl of Zhongcheng's mansion. She said that their young lady has fallen in love with the Marquis of Haixin and wants to marry him as his principal wife." The midwife raised her head, staring at Yuanshi in a daze, and suddenly laughed, "Hahaha! Madam Marquis! Yuanshi! You are really capable!
It was clearly you who arranged for someone to lure my son to gamble, but you put the blame on me and forced me to harm others.
I really couldn't bear to see the poor child die, so I didn't take action. I just followed your instructions and took the lady's life.
Even so, you still refused to let my son go, and sent someone to lure him to gamble again, and then cut off his hands and feet, turning him into a useless person. What on earth is your heart made of? Why can you be so cruel?
If I had known that I would not be able to save my son after doing such an evil thing, why would I have done it? Hahaha! This is retribution, retribution! Madam Hou! You will also have retribution. Hahaha! Hahaha!"
Yuan's face was ugly, and her lips were bloodless. Marquis Haixin shouted outside, "Come here! Capture everyone in Madam's yard. I will interrogate them one by one to find out whether the truth of the year is as Wang said."
"No! Lord! If you really do this, how can I save my dignity?" Yuan Shi knelt in front of Lord Hai Xin and cried, "How can I survive?"
Ji Fenglin sneered, not showing any mercy to Yuanshi: "How can you survive? You killed the Marquis's wife, have you ever thought about how the Marquis will face it?
My father-in-law has the same miserable fate as my son-in-law! Both of them married women with vicious hearts, and their wives were killed. The family of the loyal marquis is really well educated. People say that marrying the wrong wife will ruin three generations, which is absolutely true.
Killing my mother-in-law is nothing, the Yuan family is even more powerful. When the Lu family was in trouble, it was all the work of the Zhongcheng Marquis's Mansion and the Yuan family. Someone, come! Bring someone from the Zhongcheng Marquis's Mansion. "
Qian Yumei and Yuan Shi were both confused by Ji Fenglin. They couldn't understand why he found so many witnesses over and over again.
When did he start investigating these things?
Monsoon Forest: “…”
It started from the day Yufeng died. By chance, I found and raised many important witnesses, just waiting for them to come in handy one day.
This time, Ji Huan brought an old man in his fifties who was blind in one eye, had half of his face destroyed, one hand broken, and one leg lame.
He was very thin, with a hunched back. When he saw Hai Xinhou, he wanted to kneel down, but Ji Fenglin waved his hand to stop him.
"Don't be polite. Tell Hai Xinhou everything you know about the Lu family. If there is any injustice, Hai Xinhou will take care of it for you."
The old man sighed, his hoarse voice sounded like someone rubbing a handful of sand in his hands: "I am an old servant of Uncle Zhongcheng. Back then, Uncle Zhongcheng forged a letter, bribed the servants of the Lu family, and put it into Master Lu's study.
This plot was proposed by Prince Duan, and the forged letter was also brought by Prince Duan's people. The contents of the letter were all slandering the Lu family and providing various intelligence information to the Northern Kingdom through the business.
The Lu family had no way to defend themselves, so they had to exchange all their property for those unfounded things, and then burn them all. Prince Duan took all the Lu family's property and sent people to kill them on the road.
In fact, these are all means used by the Lord to help the second daughter of the Haixin Marquisate to ascend to the position of the wife of the Duke of Chengguo. The eldest daughter's biggest supporter is the Lu family. Without the Lu family, she will have no way out. "
Qian Yumei angrily retorted: "You are talking nonsense. It is obviously Prince Duan who covets the Lu family's property. What does it have to do with me?"
