The girl who stood out was very pretty, and perhaps that was why she was kept by the steward.
"During the first few years of the Salesian Home's establishment, government inspections were strict. Although the head steward had ill intentions, his actions were not very obvious. He was quite nice to us, though he would occasionally commit some indecent acts. We were... young and didn't understand what he was doing. He used both coaxing and threats, and several decent-looking women fell victim to him. When I was twelve, after my period, he also got me."
"After I turned fifteen, I wanted to escape from this sea of suffering, but he forced me to stay... and those who left here didn't dare to say much, because Steward Wang knew officials. Someone once sued him in the government office, but was bitten back, and his fate was pitiful."
"So everyone is very sensible and can only swallow their anger or leave the country..."
"At first, there was a teacher here. I learned calligraphy for three years. Later, I persuaded the chief steward to buy some books and learned a lot on my own. Over the years, I have recorded everything the chief steward did... I also heard the chief steward say that the Chief Justice of the Ministry of Civil Affairs is his brother-in-law. He gives the Chief Justice 5,000 taels of silver every year. In addition, he has old acquaintances in the Ministry of Revenue and the Ministry of Justice. Those people may not be very clear about our affairs, but because they have been circumvented, they never investigate carefully..."
The girl spoke very carefully.
Even when someone surrounded the place, she vaguely guessed that something had happened to the steward, so she put the book she had recorded in her arms.
At this time, it was handed over.
The prince opened it and took a look.
Xiao Cunyu stood nearby and could clearly see what was written inside.
The font is not graceful and does not even have any aesthetic appeal, but every stroke is extremely powerful, recording a series of sad and infuriating things.
"The steward drank a lot tonight and asked Ah Xi to serve him. Ah Xi was too young and never came back."
"The steward thought Ah Miao was ignorant and slapped her a few times. Ah Miao's teeth fell out..."
"The steward wanted to look for Ah Miao again, but Xing Niang couldn't bear to see Ah Miao suffer, so she took the initiative to go into the steward's room. Today, the steward entertained a guest, and that guest looked like a good person. Xing Niang secretly asked for help and complained, but that person was a bad guy. I heard the steward beat Xing Niang, and Xing Niang died. The steward asked me to wash his bloody clothes..."
"A steward named Wang has arrived. He likes good-looking boys. There have been more cries at night."
“…”
Cui Qiao behind Xiao Cunyu was so angry that he could hardly control himself.
She flew to the ghost beside the steward and looked at the resentful girl. She found that the ghost seemed to have lost consciousness. It only knew how to stare at the steward and pester him. It would not speak or look at other people. It was both persistent and powerless.
"Sir, please... help them..." Cui Qiao's eyes were red.
Xiao Cunyu gave her a soothing look, then turned to the stewards and asked, "Where is the body buried?"
Of course the managers didn't dare to say it.
Cui Qiao quickly flew to the ghosts and asked them, but after asking for a long time, no one knew the answer.
This is a bit strange.
Unless, the steward also found a master to suppress their corpses and isolate the connection between the corpses and the ghosts, so as to suppress the ghosts' power.
Xiao Cunyu suddenly threw out a piece of talisman paper, drew a trace of Yin Qi from one of the ghosts, and wrapped it around the talisman paper. After the talisman paper burned, only a wisp of smoke remained, which seemed to slowly dissipate.
But in Xiao Cunyu's eyes, the Yin Qi that had just been summoned, after gaining the power of the talisman paper, began to float towards one place.
"Bring your people and follow me." Xiao Cunyu and Ying Huaiji said.
