Chapter 228 Who is harming him?
"After asking, they said they were the young masters of the Ma family."
The expression on the soldier's face is indescribable.
The Ma family's legitimate grandchildren who had been missing for so long really knew how to choose the right time to come back.
Alas, they are meant to be a family, and they must be neat and tidy even when they go to the Dali Temple and the prison.
"Then let them in."
Yu Jinming smiled playfully. This person who kidnapped Matthew Li's grandson might have a life-and-death feud with Matthew Li?
With this in mind, he continued with the work at hand and asked people to check the household registrations and servants' indentures of everyone in the Ma Mansion one by one.
Half a minute later, the soldier who had just gone out came in with a few children.
The oldest was seven or eight years old, and the youngest was only two or three years old. They were all still wearing gorgeous clothes and looked clean. They didn’t look like they had been abducted at all.
"Father, Mother..."
As soon as the children entered the yard, they rushed over to find their fathers and mothers.
There is a wedding banquet at the Ma residence today, and everyone in the family is dressed in festive and luxurious attire. The people from the Five Cities Military Department went to raid the Ma residence's storehouse first, but have yet to start with the pearl and hairpin accessories worn by the people in the residence.
So it is very easy for the children to find their parents.
"My son, you are back. Where have you been this month? I have been looking for you for so long..."
"Son, are you still alive?"
"Son, ..."
Matthew Li had three legitimate sons, and each of their wives had lost a son. Now they were all back, and the three daughters-in-law all hugged their children and cried.
When Ma Ruyu saw this scene, he didn't even bother to glare at Zhou Jiaming, but kept looking towards the gate.
He was afraid that his wife and children would appear in the yard the next moment.
Although he was a playboy and had little affection for his first wife, he still loved his children.
What if they return home today, I wonder if they will be implicated?
Although the names of his first wife and several children have been crossed out in the Ma family tree, if the children's maternal families have not yet included them in the family tree, the Dali Temple may also investigate.
The more Ma Ruyu thought about it, the more anxious he became. He stared at the gate, wishing he could look through the gate to his ex-wife's dowry yard.
The three Ma Ruxun brothers looked at each other, not knowing what expression to make.
Be happy, you should be happy that your child is back.
But coming back today means being locked up in the Dali Temple jail together with them. How can they be happy?
You must be unhappy, right? Your child is back, how can you not be happy?
Several people had frozen faces as they watched the women crying in confusion.
Matthew's expressionless face almost twisted at this moment.
Who is it? Who is harming him?
At this moment, he finally realized that he might have been tricked.
He wanted to send away several legitimate grandchildren, but someone interrupted his mission in a secret room and several legitimate grandchildren were kidnapped.
He wanted to find a few legitimate grandchildren, but the Dark Tower refused to accept the task.
Something happened in the Ma Mansion, and he had not brought his legitimate grandchildren back, but they were sent back anyway.
I came back just in time, not a moment too early or too late.
The matter was so obvious that even a fool could figure out that someone was deliberately making things difficult for him.
"Grandma, my grandson is back."
"Grandma, I miss you so much."
"Grandma, your grandson wants you to hug him."
......
After Madam Ma fainted, the old nanny pinched her philtrum hard but failed to wake her up. Instead, she was awakened by the crying of several daughters-in-law and grandchildren.
"Hey, grandma's dear grandchildren, you are finally back. I couldn't live even a day without you."
Mrs. Ma took the hands of her daughters-in-law and hugged her grandchildren and started crying again.
When she cried, her mood became as distorted as Matthew Li's.
It would be better if my grandson hadn’t come back.
If she had known that her grandchildren had been kidnapped and had not suffered any harm, why would she have bothered to bring them back?
Now, no one can escape.
“Wuwuwuwu…”
The more Mrs. Ma thought about it, the sadder she became. She cried as if her parents had died and couldn't stop.
"Don't cry. Everyone who hears your name should go out. Men should stand on the left and women should stand on the right."
Yu Jinming's people had already checked the household registration, and after a scolding, they began to call the roll.
Matthew Li is now a fish on the chopping board, with no strength left to resist.
After the headcount was complete, Yu Jinming had all the masters and servants of the Ma Mansion locked up and taken back to the Dali Temple and imprisoned in the prison.
As for the nine clans of the Ma family, Suo Jiang and his men have already taken their people there, and they will all gather at the Dali Temple today.
"Master, so this is what you are happy about? Did you know that Matthew Li would be arrested today?"
Little Gourd was very happy watching what happened in the video.
Although Matthew Li is not the cannon fodder it wants to save, he is one of the culprits who caused the congestion in the underworld in the original book.
His arrest means that the lives of many people who were harmed by him have changed.
"I didn't know it in advance, but I could guess it. How could my father watch Matthew Li act so rampantly?"
When Chu Qinshu watched the end of the Ma Mansion in the video, she thought of the evil Prince Ning.
Matthew Li has already been imprisoned in the Dali Temple, so it should be his turn next.
"Alas, I wonder how Zhou Hongjing feels right now?"
Little Gourd did not comment on what its master said and directly switched the video to Zhou Hongjing.
It was still curious about how Zhou Hongjing was rescued by King Ning.
Zhou Hongjing was the first to receive the news about the Ma Mansion.
Someone from Zhou's residence was going to Ma's residence to escort the bride. When they saw the soldiers entering the residence, they of course secretly returned to Zhou's residence to report the news.
"Master, I'm afraid it's difficult to get the second young lady out. She has been included in the Ma family tree."
As soon as Butler Zhou heard the news, he went out in person to inquire about the situation in the Ma Mansion.
He didn't expect that the Ma family would write their young lady into the family tree before the marriage. No other noble family would do this.
With the marriage certificate and the family tree, when it comes to the court, his second daughter is also from the Ma family.
"That old bastard Matthew Li, I'm afraid he is deliberately trying to trick me."
It's really not easy for Zhou Hongjing's brain to react.
This marriage was facilitated by him alone. He had wanted to rely on the Ma family as a big tree, but he didn't expect that this big tree was not as reliable as himself.
"That's right. I wonder if Matthew will agree to divorce with them."
Butler Zhou hesitated and spoke again.
He also contributed to this marriage.
If he doesn't listen to his master and keep an eye on the Madam and the Second Miss, this marriage might not be possible.
Now, if you want to save the second young lady, the only way is to divorce her.
But the premise is that the crime committed by the Ma family is not a capital crime.
Otherwise, forget about divorce, Caishikou will not abandon women and children.
"Divorce? That old man Ma Xiuli was so anxious to include Ming'er in his Ma family tree. Do you think he can still let Ming'er divorce and return home?"
Zhou Hongjing sat decadently on the imperial physician's chair, his hair turning white with anxiety.
It wasn't that he felt sorry for Zhou Jiaming, he just felt bad that he had raised a daughter for nothing.
Not only did he not get any money in return, but he also didn't get a future.
How could the daughter he raised so carefully lose money like this?
"Prepare the car. I'm going to Prince Ning's Mansion."
Zhou Hongjing thought about it and didn't know who to look for.
Prince Ning is now the most connected person among his clan, and he is probably the only one who can help.
