Chen Yuhong pointed at Ning Yuan and shouted, "The murderer!"
He turned to Ning Wei again and shouted, "You're a murderer too!"
Ning An stood up, trying to help her mother, but Chen Yuhong forcefully pushed her away...
Chen Yuhong looked at Ning An frantically, pointing at him and saying each word clearly, "You, you're an accomplice too!"
Ning An was speechless, unable to defend himself, and found it difficult to accept the sudden change in the household...
What's even harder to accept is that the deaths of her two older sisters caused her parents to drift apart...
Ning An's voice was slightly stern as she questioned Chen Yuhong, "Mother, my sister is your daughter, but aren't my third brother and I your sons?"
"My sisters died tragically, and now you're abandoning me and my third brother?"
Upon hearing these words, Chen Yuhong suddenly burst into laughter.
Tears streamed down her face, as if she had heard some huge, hilarious joke.
His appearance was so erratic that Ning Yuan and Ning An couldn't help but worry.
Ning Yuan hesitated for a moment, then finally hardened his heart, pressed down on Ning Qian's body, and drew his longsword...
The body had stopped bleeding.
Chen Yuhong glanced at them helplessly, then looked at Ning Wei, Ning Yuan, and Ning An with unfamiliar and fearful eyes.
She turned to Ning An with a smile and asked, "Yes! Anyway, they're all dead, so they're no longer of any value, therefore..."
Shouldn't we have argued and defended them?
They were born into a noble family, and just because they were daughters, did their lives have to be so cheap?
"You're worthless to the point of death, not even worthy of a single sincere tear from your own father or your own brothers, right?!"
Every question uttered by Chen Yuhong was a wake-up call.
Unfortunately, all she received in return was silence in the air.
Chen Yuhong had already seen through the reaction of the father and his two sons.
Therefore, in response to Ning An's question, Chen Yuhong retorted:
"As women, sisters, and mothers, we must have no complaints..."
I'm willing to pave the way for you, right?
My sisters are dead, utterly useless, so even grief and madness are superfluous...
Even so, even as a mother, I am not allowed...
I have to do it for my son, for you two, for you two monsters, monsters as cold-blooded and ruthless as your father...
Your sister just died, and you can't even muster the energy to grieve; all you're thinking about is whether the news will leak out...
If this gets out, it will damage his reputation and his career...
good!
You can make your own plans for the future; I won't stop you...
But my heart must follow my own will. I have your sisters, my poor Qian'er and Xi'er, in my heart I think of them...
Otherwise, they are truly pitiful! Such a vast manor, yet no one cares about them…”
Ning An had only said it in anger, but when Chen Yuhong pointed her finger at him and cursed him like that, his temper flared up immediately.
She stood up angrily and questioned, "Why does Mother misunderstand me and Third Brother like this?"
We are your own flesh and blood too...
My sister died tragically, how can we not be saddened?
But does being sad mean you can't go on living?
If we let the situation escalate, our Marquis's mansion will become a laughingstock throughout the capital, and will be suspected by His Highness the Crown Prince, princes, and ministers...
"Father and we're all in jail, is this what Mother wanted to see?!"
Chen Yuhong was very pleased after hearing this, and she said with relief, "Yes! This is exactly what I want!"
Qian'er and Xi'er must be very lonely underground...
Why don't we all go underground and join them?
Hahaha! "
Ning An was deeply hurt after hearing this.
Nothing in the world is more heartbreaking than parents cursing their children to die with them...
"Fourth brother..."
Ning Yuan wiped his sword clean and handed it back to Ning Wei, who looked up and glanced at him a few more times.
Ning Yuan comforted Ning An, "Your mother was deeply hurt and spoke without thinking, please don't take it to heart..."
Don't ask for too much. If there's anything, talk to your father and me.
Hearing Ning Yuan's words, Ning An felt much better.
"Go check on the guards outside..."
Ning Wei gave the order.
Ning Yuan lifted his leg and walked to the gatekeeper, whereupon he was immediately shocked.
He checked the breathing of Ning Wei's trusted men and found that they were merely unconscious, with traces of sedatives in their mouths and noses...
Ning Yuan did not report it without authorization, but walked straight out of the courtyard to check with the Imperial Guards to see if any personnel had entered or left...
As Ning Yuan walked away, Ning Wei guessed what had happened.
Chen Yuhong regained some composure, then sat motionless on the ground, staring at Ning Qian's corpse, which had been stabbed open with a bloody hole...
Sudden!
The coffin lid on which Ning Xi was lying fell to the ground without warning!
It broke in two!
Chen Yuhong snapped out of her daze and lunged towards the coffin...
I saw Ning Xi's sallow, stiff face.
Ning An was startled and didn't dare to take a step forward.
There were too many unexpected events tonight, and he was terrified!
First, the eldest sister, Ning Qian, suddenly "came back to life";
Now it's the second sister, Ning Xi, and the coffin lid suddenly flies off at an angle...
Ning An looked around the mourning hall warily, her body trembling slightly, and asked Ning Wei, "Father, is there a ghost?"
Ning Wei glared at Ning An, who immediately fell silent.
Ning Yuan ran back from outside the courtyard, walked to Ning Wei's side, and reported, "Father, the guards outside the gate have all been drugged..."
I just inquired with the commander of the Imperial Guards, and during the siege, no one entered or left the Marquis's residence...
Ning An, who had finally managed to quiet down, couldn't hold back any longer and cried out again, "A ghost! There must be a ghost!"
